Okay imma try to get this chapter done decently fast. I don't got much to say so yeah let's do this.
⚠️ SENSITIVE SUBJECTS IN THIS CHAPTER ⚠️

Deku POV: (there's gonna be a lot of POV switches in this chapter)

I started walking. I was numb... so much has happened. I just don't feel anymore. I'm sad, but I can't cry anymore. My damp face was blank as I slowly walked along the paths.

Todoroki POV:

Fuck! Where is he?!

"Umm, can I help you? Do you know Izuku?" I heard a voice behind me.

It's almost as if I could feel my face go white. I turned around.

"Oh, hi. I'm Shoto Todoroki. Are you Midoriya's mother?" I asked nervously.

"Yes, I am. Is something wrong? Where's Izuku?" She wondered.

"That's what I was just about to ask. I need to find him as soon as possible. Something happened..."

*

Well, that's not how I planned on meeting his mother...

Where could he be?! I've been running around for hours trying to find him. My head was spinning as I slid down the edge of the bridge. My eyes watered just thinking about him.

"Why'd I have to take him there?!" I slammed my fist against the bridge. "This is all my fault!" I yelled into the horizon. Tears were spilling out of my eyes. The memories of the three weeks I've spent with him were flooding my head.

Suddenly I knew where he was...

*

I arrived at the door, attempting to catch my breath. I knocked against the door aggressively, eager for it to open.

"Woah woah woah, calm down. Are you okay? It's like 3:00 in the morning!" The door opened.

"Can I borrow your car? It's important" I grabbed Momo's shoulders.

"Uhh, yeah, where do you need to go? I'll take you there"


Midoriya POV:


My feet were covered in cuts and scratches as I stumbled along the side of the road. I've been walking for hours. I looked up through my blurry vision of tears. How did I know how to get here? I slowly dragged myself through the trees and onto the rocks. I fell to my knees, taking in the nostalgic surroundings. I slowly made my way over to the closest tree and picked up the sharpest rock close to me. I began scraping the rock against the tree to form letters. Once I finished, I slid to the ground. My ice cold hands were shaking as I pulled a crumpled paper and pen out of my pocket...

*time skip about 30 minutes later*

Todoroki POV:

"Here!" I pointed and Momo slammed the breaks. Without hesitation, I bolted out of the car and through the trees. My face was getting scratched up from branches.

"Midoriya!" I yelled trying to find him. I finally exited the trees, to where I saw the water and rocks. I'll never forget the night we had here. I looked around, but no sign of him. Slight sun rays were just starting to peek through the trees. I squinted to see through the dark. That's when I saw something. Midoriya?! He's actually here?! Tears started to pool into my eyes until they poured out like a waterfall. I ran as fast as I could along the rocks to the other side of the lake. My head filled with worry as I got closer towards him.

"Midoriya?! Hey! Midoriya!" I knelt down beside him.

"Wake up! Everything is okay now." The agonizing pain of emotion struck me. I grabbed his hand and held it close to my face.

"No..." My forehead touched his. I saw a paper wedged into his other hand. A note? I hesitated to grab it. I slowly unfolded the paper, beside him. I don't know if I can read this... My eyes scanned over the paper.

Todoroki,

The moment my eyes caught yours that day in class. I felt something I've never felt before. The past three weeks have been the best three weeks of my life. And that's because of you, Shoto Todoroki. You were what gave me light through all this darkness that was going on. But Todoroki, I want you to move on. I don't want you to live your life thinking this was your fault, because it wasn't. This was my own decision, and nothing could've prevented it. I want you to graduate UA as a hero, and take someone on that date. That date we talked about. Take someone special with you. Someone that you care about. I'm sorry, I'm sorry that we never got to graduate together or that you never got to officially meet my mother. If you ever get the chance, tell her that I love her. And, I love you, Shoto Todoroki. Don't ever forget that... goodbye for now...

Izuku Midoriya

My tears fell onto the paper before I squeezed it into my hand. My left side burst into flames as I screamed. I held him tight into my arms. I looked up to see the words "I love you" carved into the tree.

"No no no no no-" My voice cracked from the tears as my voice filled the area.

"There you are!" I heard Momo behind me.

"Oh my-" She put her hand on my back. The sudden touch caused my flames to fade away. The tears wouldn't stop.

"Hey..." She tried to comfort me. I threw myself into her arms tightly.

"Why?!" I cried into her shoulder.

"I know..." I felt her tears to slowly begin.

" I felt her tears to slowly begin

"I never even got to say goodbye..." I stuttered between the tears.


Okay so I kinda forgot to finish this chapter and punish it. So it's been awhile since the last chapter. This was quite a sad chapter. I'm sorry to the people who actually have emotions unlike me lmao. Anyway, there'll be one or two more chapters before this book is over.
