'Why am I even on this floor?' Bakugo thought to himself after finding he had wandered into the second floor of the dorms.

'Only nerds live in this floor.' He thought, as he entered the boy's side of the dorms. When he suddenly spotted some 'nerds'.

What he saw was Iida practically rushing out of Midoriya's room. Followed by a suspicious looking Uraraka, who seemed to be smiling somewhat evilly. Deciding to follow them Bakugo snuck around just in earshot.

"I can't believe you managed to convince me to steal something of Midoriya's that could be personal or very important for his studies!" Iida practically whispered, trying not to alert people to their 'crime'.

"Oh chill Iida! We'll read it and see what's going on between him and Bakugo! Then we'll return it along with the rest of the books saying sorry!" She said.

'Why the hell does she want to know about mine and that nerd's relationship!?' Bakugo asked himself, not saying it aloud as to not alert them. Bakugo then followed them but found no other word of Midoriya's notebook.

Time skip

The next day Bakugo had barely come out of his room just to grab a snack for downstairs. He was heading to the elevator when suddenly Uraraka and Iida ran towards the elevator. "I-I'll take the stairs! You go through the elevator!" Iida said, hurriedly and making Bakugo wonder why he stuttered.

The elevator doors closed and Iida started running down the stairs. 'The hell is going on!?' Bakugo asked while he started to follow Iida down the stairs.

He ended up following Iida down to the second floor and to Midoriya's room. As he listened he heard Iida warning Midoriya about "them" knowing. 'The fuck is 'them'!?'. He thought as he heard Todoroki walking down the hall.

Before with Todoroki

Todoroki had clean up duty in the living room after the others from floor 5 had ditched him. (Satou, Yaoyorozu, Sero, and Asui) He finished folding blankets and picking up a few chip crumbs.

Of course since none of the 5th floor students were too social or was Sero's idea. After throwing away some chips he heard an elevator ding and turned to see Uraraka emerging from the door.

"Is there something wrong, Uraraka?" He asked processing her almost terrified face. In response, she merely looked at him and shrieked running faster to the door with the same teal notebook he had given Midoriya.

Assuming Midoriya had written feelings about the new stuff going on he immediately went to find him. After arriving he saw Iida practically shaking his brains into scrambled eggs.

"We need to go Midoriya. They know." Todoroki said as both heads suddenly turned towards him. Midoriya immediately gathered a few things, and they sent of on their last adventure.

With Bakugo

'Damned nerd doesn't tell me anything, so I have to find out myself.' Bakugo thought, angrily following Iida to the principal's office.

'If they're going to the stupid rat, mouse thing then it must be serious.' Bakugo thought to himself. They finally made it to the principal's office and Uraraka was still trying to get the beginning of their story out.

He heard everything. Bakugo heard all about Midoriya's soulmate. All about his feelings towards Todoroki. All about the situation he was in.

It angered him that he had to share his Deku. HIS useless person. After hearing enough he headed out to the gates to find the person who was taking his Deku.

He finally found them exiting the woods. Since he didn't want to alert them too early he simply ran out of the woods. Which took him long enough until he spotted them heading towards an abandoned area.

He started running angered by how close they were to each other. Practically holding hands. Out of nowhere he nearly crashed into a huge ice barrier.

"DAMN IT ICYHOT! ALWAYS RUINING EVERYTHING!" Bakugo screamed, looking around for an opening he could take around it.

"Kacchan?" Midoriya called out.

"You didn't think I was letting you go that easily hah!?" Bakugo yelled a bit softer, because of Midoriya. Yet he could still feel the fear in Midoriya's voice.

This angered him. 'The nerd shouldn't be scared of me!!' Then suddenly he sent a blast he would probably regret for the rest of his life. He was too busy being mad to hear anything else.

Finally, breaking through both barriers he searched for them but found nothing but blood.

After the death

Todoroki awoke dark area. He stood up searching his surroundings. 'I'm in the L.O.V. base.' He thought. Then he spotted everyone else. They were all sad, and staring at something by his feet.

'Oh.' He thought as he was hit with the sight of his dead body. Suddenly he heard a sound, and he heard the sobs and cry's of Midoriya.

"N-no! Don't leave me!! Don't you dare leave me!!!" He was screaming.

'I'd never leave you Midoriya. I'm sorry you feel that way.' He thought tearing up for the first time in a while.

'I-I'm so sorry I'm gone.' He said falling to his knees. Tears escaped his eyes, and he cried along with Midoriya. He really did love this boy.

He knew he shouldn't. After all he belonged to Shigaraki. 'I will forever watch. I will forever be on your side Midoriya. No matter what.' He thought more and more tears spilling on to his cheeks.

Nothing could amount to the pain they both felt. They both felt so alone. They felt as if no one understood. Even after everything they knew they could never forget.

He felt as if he would cry forever. Even with all the confusion for the future, there was one thing for sure. Todoroki would never leave Midoriya's side.
