Being saved at last

Im okay for now

So changed this chapter a bit if you didn't notice, but not much!//

Izuku pov:
My eyes shifted away from him, but my hand shifted to his hair. I slowly ran my hand through it as my eyes slowly met his. He didn't say anything, just waited for my response. I take a deep, shaky breath. " I'm sorry that I'm just not ready" is all I can mange.

He looks straight into my eyes. "I never said you had to be ready." He says quietly. "I know I hurt your ego, or pride or whatever, but I didn't mean it" I say flatly, the emotion in his face surfaced between anger and sadness, then slight forgiveness. He probably wasn't happy about the way I phrased that. "Look, I'm not good with words, or emotions, but I know when I've hurt someone" I say running my hand through this hair again.

He closed his eyes and huffs, taking short deep breaths. I guess the look on my face gave off slight fear or hesitance. "I'm not angry, calm down. You will know if I'm angry" he says in an eerily calm voice. "Like you said, I'm not good with emotions. I don't do that shit. But I accept your damn apology" he huffs looking away.

I guess I had a slight smile on my face, because for a second I swear I saw one on his too. I guess mine was plastered brightly on my face, a stupid large grin. He shook his head and placed his book down, pulling me into his lap. I gave a small 'eep' sound, so he was a bit more gentle.

He closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I snuggled into him, maybe I do have feelings for him. But there is one thing for sure, I'm going to take it slow, and the moment I sense that he is bailing on me, I'm gone. Out. I have already said it, I'll say it again. I won't end up like my mom. I'll win that battle without a doubt.

But for now......I'll be happy snuggled in his arms.
