The Truth. | Dekuyama

✿ Chapter 1 ✿

This is the sequel to the book I made titled "Despair", please go read that before you read this. There will be spoilers.

Uraraka's POV

"Tsu, I need to tell you something..."

   "What is it Ochako?" Asui held her finger up to her mouth. I clenched my fists and looked at the ground, then I took a deep breath.
   In a loud voice I started to quickly yell out everything that had happened to me in the past week. How I had got kidnapped and everything Aoyama had done to me. I finished explaining after about a minute. Half way through explaining I had broken out in tears, so my eyes were swollen and my cheeks were red from the crying. After I finished, I looked back up at Asui. Her eyes were wide.
   "Is...is that really t-true...?" The frog girl asked with a shaky voice. I nodded slowly.
   "P-please don't tell anyone. If Aoyama found out I told you, he said he'd hurt my family..." I blinked, letting more tears fall from my eyes. Asui walked up to me slowly and pulled me into an embrace.
   "I won't tell anyone Ochako...ribbit." I could feel her tears fall onto my shirt as she lay her head on my shoulder. I hugged back.
   "Thank you."

Midoriya's POV

   I was sitting on the couch in the main room of the dorms. My mind was racing with thoughts.
   Why is Uraraka ignoring me? Did I do something to upset her? Is it because of what happened during her kidnapping?
Pretty soon, my emotions got the best of me and I started crying again. Before I knew it I was making my way up to Aoyama's dorm.
I reached his dorm after a few minutes, and at this point, my eyes were bloodshot from the tears. I sniffed as I knocked on the door. Almost immediately, I heard the door knob turn, and my friend stood in the door way.
"Oh my! Midoriya what's wrong!?" He yelled as soon as he saw me. I moved forward and pretty much fell into Aoyama's arms. He caught me clumsily, with an arm around my waist, and one close to my neck, but not close enough to choke me.
   "Um....Let's go sit down." The obviously nervous blonde said with a trembly voice. I hesitantly started walking slowly with Aoyama's arms still wrapped around me.

We sat down on his bed as he let go of me.
His bed was comfy, and his room was a bit too sparkly for my already burning eyes. "So what's wrong?" He asked. I sighed as I calmed myself.
"I'm just so confused on why Uraraka is ignoring me I-" I took a deep breath within words as one more tear fell from my eye. "-I don't understand what I did wrong..." I finished as I sniffled and looked down at the floor. I felt a hand on my shoulder as I looked up and locked eyes with Aoyama. His beautiful amethyst orbs sparkled as he started to speak again.
"You didn't do anything wrong, Cheri, she must be traumatized from her kidnapping... it has nothing to do with you." The reassurance on his face made me feel a bit better. I smiled a bit.
"Thanks a lot...wait what does Cheri mean?" I asked, confused. His face turned a bit pink.
"Nothing..." He turned his head away. I raised an eyebrow, but I didn't question it more.
A few moments of silence passed before he turned to me again. "Just try to leave her alone and give her time to get used to being back around people." He smiled, genuinely this time. Nothing like his signature V smile. Though, somethings seems a bit, off about his expression...
"I guess you're right...thanks again." I said,
"Anything for you." He replied as he winked, sending a star flying from his eye. Unexpectedly, my freckled cheeks started to heat up. From past experiences, I knew what was happening. I quickly stood up and covered my face. Aoyama looked really confused.
"I-I'll be in my way now..t-thanks!" I stuttered before I turned and ran out of his room, and shut the door. I took a deep breath and walked back to my dorm.
He's a great friend, and nothing else than a friend...right?
