"I'm sorry." 'I know... I want to forgive you, but...' "You think an apology will do anything? Well, let me tell you something. You apologized a decade too late and already I've left my past behind." 'Yet that doesn't mean I want you to leave.' "I just want to try again. Won't you give me a second chance? Please?" 'Of course I will. But what will you do then?' "That chance is long gone and until you give me a reason to trust you again, I think it's best for us to remain as classmates. Strangers, even." 'That's only because I don't want to be just friends.' "Do you really want to do this?" 'No. I don't. But I can't stop because...' "Please...Let's just forget about everything. I don't want anyone getting hurt." 'I don't want to be hurt again.' *** At that time, I didn't think any of that. Looking back, I wish I hadn't pushed you away. Why is it that even after all you did to me, I can't forget you? You who hurt me, scarred me, and pushed me away... how come when I think of you I see these colors from my quirk that I've never seen before? Todoroki Shoto... when did you even make your way into my heart? And what's more... why can't I bring myself to force you out..? * * * * Disclaimer: I do NOT own My hero academia, the plot, or any of the characters.
