Background Character | MHA x Male Reader |

CHAPTER 1 - This Wasn't in the Script

I never stood out, that much was obvious. I was a background character in my own life. That sounds more depressing then it actually is. Life is boring, schools boring, I'm boring. The same monotonous tasks everyday start to make the days numb.

If I was a role in a book, it sure as hell wouldn't be a protagonist. But not everyone gets to be popular and unique and I've accepted that. I've always been ignored and I ignore everyone else, that's how it will always be.

The loud yelling of my class takes me away from my thoughts.

"You think you're better than us, Katsuki?"

"Ah, Lets go, I'll take you all on"

I sigh and look out the window. This conversation makes me think it's good to be in the background sometimes.

"I aced all the mock tests. I'm the only one at this school who stands a chance of getting in. I'll end up more popular than All-Might himself! And be the richest hero of all time! People all across the world will know who I am and it all starts with U.A High!"

One cocky motherfu-

"Oh yeah Midoriya. . . Didn't you want to go to U.A too?"

I glance to wear the green haired boy sat. He was clearly trembling and it didn't help that students were laughing. Poor kid, hell even the teacher is laughing.

"Midoriya? You're kidding right?"

"There's no way of getting into the hero course without a quirk."

"W-Well I could be the first one"

Soon after the brocoli head stuttered out a defense he was met with an explosion. I hear the raging boy out down the other more, I zone out a bit til I hear the end of the conversation.

"Defenseless Izuku! The schools already crappy, you really wanna embarrass it more by failing so hard? Hell, even the lonely bastard in the corner has a better chance then you."

Since I was the only "lonely bastard in the corner" I can guess he was talking about me I look at him, an unimpressed expression on my face.

"Look, don't bring me into your feud. To be honest you should leave the poor kid alone and sit down."

He snarls and yanks out his chair and with a puff sits down angrily.

Eventually the end of class comes and I start walking out. I check my bag and realize I'm missing a notebook. Shit, I never leave anything behind. I reluctantly head back to the classroom to grab my notebook and hear a conversation.

"Just pray that you'll be born with a quirk in your next life and take a swan dive off the roof of the building"

I knew that voice, it was my angry classmate Katsuki. I knew he was bad and had an awful temper, but telling someone to kill themselves really crossed the line of middle school bully and middle school delinquent. I wait a second until Katsuki and his goons walk outside, he walks out the door and looks in my direction and glares. Oh shit I'm gonna die. To my luck, he keeps walking.

I enter the eerily empty classroom with the small boy still shocked and him missing his Hero notebook. He's shaking slightly and he sighs. I go to grab my notebook that I left I stop in my tracks.

"Hey broccoli boy"

He looks up at me. And tilts his head in confusion.

"Don't listen to the Pomeranian, he'll get what's coming eventually it isn't worth it."
