Kaminari had barely gotten any sleep for the past few months. Right now, he was running off of maybe 50 hours of sleep within the past 73 days, and caffeine.

The nightmares were the reason why he wouldn't sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, he could hear his mother yelling at him. He could feel her kick his ribs, and throw beer bottles at him.

The bags under his eyes were practically black, but he used a ton of concealer and foundation to cover them up, making him seem his "normal", cheery self.

Kami dragged himself out of bed, feeling sick. He hadn't eaten much either; and when he did, he would throw it up afterwards.

And no body knew.

He grabbed his school uniform and made his way sluggishly to the bathroom across from his room.

At that same moment, shinsou had the perfect timing to come out.

He froze when he saw Kaminari.

"W-what the hell?!"

Kami flinched slightly when Shinsou yelled, confused.

Aizawa walked up the stairs to see what had happened.

"What's going on?" He looked at kami first, who just stared at his feet, trying to hide his face in his hair, before looking to Shinsou.

"Kami?" Shin slowly walked up to the clearly fragile boy. "Are you sleeping ok?"

The other just nodded, still looking at the ground.

"Kaminari, dont lie." Aizawa said sternly.

He just nodded again, then pushed past the two, and shut and locked the bathroom door.

He grabbed a razor from the shower and broke it, taking the blade out and holding it between his middle and pointer finger, like a cigarette. He set the blade down on the edge of the sink before stripping down to his underwear.

Kami picked the razor back up again, and pressed it agaisnt the skin on the inside if his thigh. The inside was the only part that was not already cut up.

When he had finished the new cuts, he bandaged his thighs up, and changed into his school uniform. He grabbed his bag of makeup that he had bought years ago to hide the bruises from his mom, and took the concealer and foundation out, applying the concealer to under his eyes, and the foundation on the rest of his face.

He finished up, hiding the makeup under the sink, before opening the door to see Shinsou standing there, waiting for him.

"Sorry, I hope I didn't take too long..." kami said, walking out the door, and past Shinsou, till the latter caught his wrist, and pulled him backwards.

Kami stumbled, falling into the older males chest. He pulled away, blushing, but Shinsou pulled him back agaisnt his chest, hugging him closely.

Kaminari wasnt used to such kind and gentle physical touch. He had stiffened when he was first pulled into the hug, but soon relaxed when he realized that Shinsou wouldn't hurt him like his mom did.

"Kami..." he muttered, "are you still having nightmares...?" 

Kami stiffened again but shook his head.

"Are you lying to me?"

Again, he shook his head.

"Tell me the truth Kaminari."

"I am-" kami felt his will, and his ability to move, and even think go away.

"I'm sorry Kami... Dad wanted me to though. Please dont hate me." Shinsou pulled away before beginning his questioning.
