Izuku's pov:

I woke up to a slight pain in my head and a dry throat. God I felt awful. I looked to my side and noticed the note on my side desk. I slowly sat up in bed, my hands clutching the bed sheets to support my body. I felt weak, far too weak to be able to do anything at that moment. I reached out to grab the note and read it;

Izuku Midoriya,

I hope you're feeling better right now. You passed out due to the violent coughing and blood loss. I managed to heal you so you won't have a fever once you wake up. If you have a headache take some painkillers. I've also left some pills on your side table. Make sure to take one every night. This will make the plants grow less rapidly and calm them down for a while. Do not overdose. It will only worsen your condition. If you feel the need to pay me a visit please do. I will also be calling you to check on your health time to time. And please make up your mind. Do you want to tell him how you feel? Or do you want the surgery. In any case we can't afford losing you. Your friend Todoroki shoto also knows about this and so does Aizawa. Pay them a visit and talk to them.

-Recovery girl

I took a deep breath and then looked to my side table. It was night time already so I decided to take the pill and then go talk to Todoroki.

"This will be hard.." I muttered under my breath. As much as I wanted to keep this a secret I couldn't. It was growing way too rapidly. I know I need to do something but I don't know what I want to do at this point.

I took the pill and drank some water. I fixed myself and then made my way to Todoroki- kun's dorm. Most of the students were in the main lounge watching a movie and having the time of their life. But I knew for a fact that Todoroki kun wasn't among them. After a while I was infront of his dorm's door. I gulped and calmed myself down, taking a deep breath. I told myself it would be okay but I knew I was lying to myself. This was going to be hard and I knew it. I knocked on his door.

"Who is it?" I heard him ask.

"Todoroki kun it's me Midoriya..." I replied.

I heard quick footsteps and not even a second later the door opened and I was pulled inside. I looked up at him and Todoroki kun looked at me with sadness and worry. Suddenly I felt arms wrapped around me. It was Todoroki kun. He hugged me and let out a shaky sigh.

"How are you feeling Midoriya?" He asked.

"I'm better. Just a little headache and that's about it. I'm sorry you had to-" I was cut off by him putting his finger up to my mouth.

"How long Midoriya? How long have you had it?"

"J-just a few days..."

"It's Bakugou isn't it?"

My heart stopped for a moment and my eyes widened. How does he know? I looked up at him and he let go off me and put his hands on my shoulders. He looked at my with teary eyes. It was the first time I had seen Todoroki kun cry. He was crying because of.... me.

"How did you know?" I asked in a sort of a whisper. I hadn't noticed but I was crying too.

"It was pretty obvious you liked him. You've admired him your whole life and it might just look like your admiration towards him to others but I saw love and pain in your eyes when you looked at him. It was more than just appreciation. I didn't think much of it until I saw you cough up blood and petals. Orange petals. That just confirmed it that you are insanely in love with Bakugou." He answered.

I looked down at my feet and began to cry. I wasn't embarrassed. I was scared. I never wanted this to happen. I don't even know when I fell in love with Kacchan. Everything was too much for me to think about.

"I d-don't know why I f-fell for him. I only thought of it a-as respect and admiration. But then I r-realized I was in l-love with him. As soon as the though hit me and I realized that he h-hates me I felt the throbbing pain in my c-c-chest." Tears were streaming down my face as I managed to stutter this out. He hugged me back and told me it was going to be okay. He picked me up and sat on his bed. I cried on his shoulder and he consoled me telling me how everything was going to work out and will be fine in the end. I was happy to have Todoroki kun in my life. He was my best friend and like an older brother I could talk to about anything without being judged or misunderstood. Surprisingly, he was very good at calming people and making them feel better. Whenever I had a problem I'd ask him about it and he'd help. I was glad he actually found out about this.

I sat up on his bed and wiped my tears after a while. He just made small circles on my back with his hand gently as to reassure me that everything is fine. I looked at him and smiled.

"Thank you Todoroki kun. I didn't know I needed that. Thank you for everything and please don't worry about me. If I do have a problem I'll come to your right away! Please don't stress out about this." I told him. I didn't want him to cry because of me like he did a few minutes ago. He looked at me and smiled slightly.

"Although it's hard for me to not worry about you I'll try keeping my mind off of it. But if I feel the need to help you I will. I can't lose you Midoriya."

He looked at me and then infront of him. We sat in silence for about 3 minutes until I broke it,

"I'll get going now Todoroki kun. It's late and you should sleep too!"

"Yeah okay... but Midoriya..." he looked at me as I got up and walked towards the door.

"Yes?" I replied

"Please let Bakugou know. You'll need to tell him eventually. It might be selfish of me to say this but I don't want to lose you. You're very important to me. You're my first friend and like a younger brother to me. Please Midoriya, don't make the decision too late." He said as he looked at me with pity in his eyes and concern all over his face. He gave me a small smile and I smiled back.

"I know Todoroki kun. Don't worry! You won't lose me. I promise." I replied and then walked out of the dorm closing the door behind me. Honestly I felt bad lying to him. The truth was that I didn't know how to do anything at this point. I didn't know how to tell Kacchan... no I didn't want to tell him. I was too scared. He already hates me what if this made him hate me even more? And I certainly didn't want the surgery. I couldn't just let some doctors take away all my childhood memories. Literally my whole childhood revolved around Kacchan. I couldn't forget him. I wouldn't forget him.
