You had depression and anxiety and your therapist suggested that you try and include yourself more with your class. You had mentioned that there was a music festival and she said that was a good start. You enjoyed singing and music, so maybe you could participate and help out. At school, the class decided that they would make a song to perform on the stage. This was your opportunity to tell them that you can sing, but everyone all of a sudden just decided that Jirou would do it. So you kept quiet.

That was okay… you guess. Maybe you can help make the music?! Surely there’s something else you can do to help, right?

You managed to secure an opportunity to play the keyboard for the song. And you suggested to Jirou some changes you could make to improve the song. But… she seemed a bit hesitant, so you immediately backtracked and said “nevermind.”

You gave the role of the playing the keyboard to Yaoyorozu, because you felt that the stress was getting to you. And then the time came where class 1A was performing. Jiro was singing, Kaminari was on the guitar, Tokoyami on the bass, Bakugou on the drums and Yaoyorozu on the keyboard. There were others dancing in costumes and others using their quirks for special effects. But… you didn’t do any of that, you were just crushed that you couldn’t do the things you wanted to do even though you had it in your hands.

The performance went so well. The crowd cheered, so did the rest of the class. Afterwards when the class went back to the dorms, you just felt so out of place. Everyone was cheering because they did a good job and you weren’t able to help at all, you weren’t included. Stupid self sabotaging and stupid depression…

However Izuku, your boyfriend, noticed that when the whole class was talking in the lobby of the dorm, you were just sort of sat on your own and not really talking much. So he decided to walk over to you and sit next to you.

“You alright?” He asked curiously, wrapping an arm around you.
