"Don't Do It..." A TodoBaku Story

"Don't do it..." - Chapter 4

Todoroki's POV:

Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it.

My feet where dangling over the large drop. It was so high up. After two days of thinking about it I finally went up to the rooftop. It's lunchtime so everyone was currently in the cafeteria. But not me. Sitting outside the railing felt somewhat relaxing. Even with the voices in my head constantly shouting at me to jump.

The feeling of finally being able to escape this world. The feeling of finally being free.

If I jumped there's no chance of me surviving. That made me happy. It'll be quick and painless.

A few minutes went by and I'm still looking down at my escape. I could do it at any time but I still hadn't jumped. Maybe I just wanted to be at peace for a little while longer. Before it's all over.

It was quiet. The only sounds I heard was the wind blowing in my hair.

"Don't do it..."

I heard a familiar voice behind me.

...

Was that Bakugo?

I turned around. It's him alright. "What do you mean?" I tried to play dumb. He looked to be taken a back. Like he wasn't counting on being asked that.

"Nothing.. Tch, I just thought that you maybe were thinking of doing something stupid." He replied while making sure to not make eye contact. Why did he even say that in the first place? Bakugo would probably not stop me if I told him what my intentions was.

"I'm just sitting here. Okay? I can save myself with my quirk if I accidentally fall off. Why do you care". I answered, acting like everything is okay.

"Tch, You're so weird." He said while slowly turning around and making his way to exit the rooftop.

He just ruined my peace and quiet. The world became dark again. I started to stand up and prepared myself to jump.

Bakugo's POV:

Dammit why did I say that? I didn't care what he did. He obviously wasn't gonna jump, so what was I thinking? But I still had this terrible feeling in my body. The note... It wasn't real right? FUCK! WHY DO I FEEL SO HORRIBLE? THERE'S NO WAY THAT STUPID ICYHOT WOULD KILL HIMSELF! HE'S JUST ANNOYING! THERE'S NO WAY!

But... what if...what if...

Suddenly my legs started running on their own. I sprinted up the three sets of stairs I had already gone down and slamed the door to the rooftop open. Just then I saw Todoroki standing up and...

"TODOROKI!!!" I screamed as I shot multiple explosions behind me, boosting me forward and then I wrapped my arms around him from behind.

Todoroki had just stepped forward as I pulled him back roughly. Adrenaline surged through my body as I was still trying to process what just happened. Todoroki had frozen up. He seemed to also be in shock.

"Let me jump" he said in a dead voice. I didn't let go. "Let. Me. Jump" His body started to tense up. I held on."LET ME JUMP!" He screamed out in pain as he started struggling and tried to free himself. I tightened my grip. I wouldn't let go. No matter what. "STOP IT!" He kept on screaming.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DO YOU SERIOUSLY WANNA JUMP?" Now I was screaming. I didn't know what to do. I hated everyone and yet here I was, stopping someone from killing themselves. The only thing I knew is that I had to hold on.
