Izuku hates himself for watching you. For admiring you. For knowing your favorite color, your favorite nickname, your favorite food, god your favorite cologne— everything. He's quiet as he watches you chat with Denki and Kirishima Why can't you be a girl?

That's the question that rings through his head anytime he looks at you. It fills his brain with disgust at the thought of being with a man. Of loving one. He grew up with his head being filled with thoughts of that being wrong, yet he's in love with a boy. Love.

He likes to tell himself he isn't in love with you, but after asking Ochaco what love feels like, he knows he is. So why were you the only one able to break him out of his trance and get him to come back to UA? The only one to get him to rest?
