Midoriya stood at the kitchen counter, staring aimlessly at nothing. He'd just got back from training with All Might and usually after these nights, Midoriya couldn't sleep – no matter how much his body needed it.                                                                                                                              

A sudden crash of a mug brought him out of a daydream-like state. "Sorry Izuku, I dropped my cup... wait, is something wrong?" Midoriya turned to see Shinso, standing with an empty mug of coffee in his hand.                                    "I-I'm fine... I just... can't sleep... I just got back from training and I suppose it gives me a little bit of insomnia..." He explained slowly, stumbling slightly backwards and leaning against the counter as his body weakened.                                                                                           "How do you normally combat this? Perhaps I can help you..." Shinso replied innocently.                                                                                                                               Midoriya blushed, "I-I usually like having something to... c-cuddle... It makes me feel s-safe..." He was stuttering. This was because his crush was in fact Shinso – who looked incredible in the low-light of the living area, which was hitting him in all the right angles.                                                                                                    He smiled, "Well, I can help you with that..."                                                          Midoriya felt his heartrate speed up, "W-Why? Why do you want to h-help me?"                                                                                                                                  "Well, that's because I like you, Izuku..." He began slowly, "I thought this was the perfect time to tell you since we're alone... I'm sorry if it was sudden..."        Midoriya took his hand quickly, "I-I like you too, Shinso. I just... didn't think you'd feel the same way... I-I'm glad you feel like that..."

Shinso led Midoriya over to the couch in the living area. He laid down first and Midoriya snuggled close to him, wrapping his arms tightly around his waist, "Now rest, Izuku... You're safe with me..."                                                                   He nodded laying his head on Shinso's chest. He responded by gently stroking his fluffy green hair. He whimpered under his touch, but he was comfortable.                                                                                                                          Shinso himself was an insomniac, and he truly struggled with it. He now only realised that Midoriya was right – having someone cuddling you was really comforting.                                                                                                                          He let his body relax, finally having that genuine sleepy feeling. His eyes slowly closed, and he then let himself fall asleep with his arms wrapped loosely around Midoriya's body.                 

"Shush guys! They'll wake up!"                                                                                                "Uraraka~San, whisper please..."                                                                                                    Shinso sat up slowly, suddenly remembering that the weight of Midoriya was still on his body, "What the hell are you guys doing?" He said, his voice gravely and low with a tone of annoyance.                                                                                    "Oh, Shinso! I'm sorry, did we wake you up?" Uraraka asked politely.                         
"No, It's fine... just be a little quieter – for Izuku's sake." He said with a small smile on his face as he looked at the bundle of green on his chest.                     
"Why were you guys out here? Did you not go back to your dorms?"                         
"Ah, Midoriya got back from late-night training and he told me that those nights create insomnia for him. I suffer from the same thing, and I wanted to help him... I guess we both fell asleep..." Shinso explained slowly.                                                          "Aw, That's so sweet of you..."                                                                                           "So that's why Midoriya always looked so exhausted during the day at school... he didn't sleep..." Todoroki spoke out loud and Shinso nodded in confirmation.      

The group sat and spoke with Shinso while Midoriya caught up on the months of missed sleep. He started whimpering at one point, the rest of his squad falling silent – Shinso put his arms back around his waist, "Hush, it's alright... I'm still here, you're safe, Izu..." He whispered quietly.                                            
He smiled almost instantly after hearing his voice.                                                          
"You two seem close..." Todoroki said suddenly, analysing the two in front of him.                                                                                                                                        "Well, I-uh... confessed last night..." Shinso said quietly.                                           
"Oh my god! Really? How did it go?!" Ochaco practically screamed.                      
"He... accepted... He returned it. I've never been happier in my life..." He replied, a bright smile spreading on his face.                                                                 As if on cue, Midoriya snuggled closer and mumbled, "...I love you... Toshi..."
