Quick Warning:

This chapter does contain a panick attack! If that's triggering to you, or your just not comfy reading it, it will be indicated with a long line of '~~~~'. There's a line after that chunk to indicate that it's over, but the part after still talks about the panick attack!

Here's a summary of it for those who can't read it: All Might comes into the classroom and it triggers a panick attack for Izuku. He can only hear a commotion, see something yellow, when Touya steps up, asks the class to leave, and talks Izuku down from his panic. Note that he repeatedly refers to himself as Touya while talking to him.

Okay I'll start the chapter now :)


"Touya. If you love me, you'll pretend to be a villain so I don't have to go to school today," Izuku groaned, rolling on top of Touya who was laying on the couch already ready for school.

"Lucky for me, I feel nothing for you. I'm only here for Inko," Touya laughed, ignoring Izuku's cry and getting up to make some breakfast, "Get dressed or you starve,".

"I can literally kick you out. Don't test me, buddy," Izuku glared from his spot on the couch.

"Liar, your mother wouldn't let you. She's an angel," Touya shrugged.

"Is this what our marriage will be like?" Izuku wondered aloud.

"I thought we were gonna have a third? Is that off the table now?" Touya sighed. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

"You're right. I can't believe I forgot our beloved Danderman. Dandman? Mander? Dandy?"

"I like Mander. It's got a nice ring to it."

"You'll get a nice ring too if I have my way,".

"Shut up and get dressed,".

"Tokio. We don't have to do this," Izuku latched onto him, trying to pull him away from the classroom door.

"Yes, we do. Skipping class isn't heroic," Tokio sighed, attempting to pry Izuku off of his arm.

"Then let's not be heroes," Izuku pleaded, with tears in his eyes, "We can change our names, find Mander, become villains and live happily ever after,".

"Don't talk about becoming villains. Someone will believe us and then we'll have to go see Principal Rat," Tokio whined, attempting to push Izuku further towards the door, "Do you have fucking spikes on your shoes or some shit?"

"Fine, we find Mander, change our names, and become car salesman or something. Anything to not have to look at that overgrown wannabe Laa-Laa," Izuku pleaded.

"Too late. Go inside, everyone's fucking staring and I won't hesitate to leave your ass at a McDonald's in the middle of nowhere,".

"Divorced. I'm leaving you for Mander," Izuku pouted, forcing himself to walk into the classroom.

"Darn. How will I cope?".

~~

"I am... COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Izuku doesn't understand many things at the moment, but he can understand that right now, he can't fucking breathe. All Might had barged into the room, his stupid smile, and stupid loud voice booming, and now he can't fucking breathe.

Oh shit. He's crying now. When the hell did that happen? Why is there yelling? Why is the yellow blob coming closer? It needs to getaway. The yellow blob IS MAKING IT WORSE, IT NEEDS TO LEAVE, HE'S SUFFOCATING.

"Izuku. It's alright, I'm right here. He's not going to come closer. I'm Touya, I'm right here, and he can't come any closer. Can you speak?" A voice chimed softly.

Speak? Izuku can't do that. He can't speak, he can't b r e a t h e.

"Hey, hey. That's fine. You don't have to speak, just try to breathe in for me. Can you nod if it's alright for me to touch you?".

Touya is good. Izuku can trust Touya. He won't hurt him. Touya won't let him die.

Izuku nods.

"Alright, that's good. Can I move your hand?" A nod and Izuku could feel Touya's steady breathing against his hand "Great. You're gonna be alright. Can you try and breathe with me?" A nod.

"You're doing great. Breath in with me," An inhale, and Izuku choked for air, "That's alright, that's alright. Just relax, you can do this,".

They went on like that for a little longer, long inhales and slow exhales. Izuku could breathe again.

"Great job, Izuku. You're doing amazingly. Can you try and repeat after me?" A nod, "That's great, we're gonna count to 5 alright?" Another nod.

1...2...3...4...5.

"That's great, you're doing amazing. Let's go backward now, alright?".

"Okay," Izuku gasped out, his voice hoarse from crying.

5...4...3...2...1.

Izuku started to calm down. He'd be okay. Touya is here and he'd be okay.

"Good job Izuku. Just breathe with me, please,".

They sat there in a calm silence until Izuku's breathing had returned to normal. There were still tears pouring down his face, but he could focus. He could breathe. He wasn't going to die.

"Are you alright to come with me to see Recovery Girl now? I can carry you there, but you don't have to go if you're not ready yet,".

"No, I can go," Izuku said, his voice still scratchy. Dear Nezu, Izuku was tired, "Where'd the class go?".

"I kicked them out. The purple boy ran to get some water earlier though, it should be outside the door if you'd like it," Touya offered.

"Can we grab it on the way to Recovery Girl's office?"

"That works. Want a piggyback ride there?"

"Yes, Please,".

With that Izuku climbed on Touya's back, half asleep the entire way there.
