you sat at the trunk of you car, stargazing silently next to your boyfriend, Shoto Todoroki. It’s your third year at UA and it’s been a struggle to say the least.

you thought back to all the hard times, when you didn’t believe in love. how you always thought it was a thing for desperate people to hopelessly tried to cling onto, to make themselves feel full. you remembered how he felt the same way.

the night you realized you loved him was a hard one. you never were able to fathom what you felt for him. you were fond of him, but not the same amount of fondness compared to Jirou or Kaminari. you convinced yourself you didn’t love him, you convinced yourself he couldn’t love you. you convinced yourself no one could love you.

you avoided him for days, you avoided everyone for days. you couldn’t get attached, you wouldn’t. you avoided public meals, either eating on your balcony or on the rooftop. this certain day you ate alone on the rooftop on UA, eating silently as your airpods blasted music.

“{{user}},” you heard a voice say from behind you, making you look behind you to low behold shoto todoroki. “why have you been avoiding everyone? i thoguht it was just me but i noticed you aren’t at any meals anymore, or the class hangouts. i barley see you anymore,”

“why do you care?” you asked looking away

he stayed quiet, before speaking up “i never believed in love.” he said before continuing “until you.”

you both sat for the remainder of the period, talking about both your feelings. you both weren’t good with talking about your feelings, let alone feelings like these.

now you two sat in your trunk, side by side looking at the stars. it was past curfew as you both looked at the stars

“thank you,” shoto said randomly

“for what?” you asked

“for everything. you helped me realize what love is, and how to recognize it. you stayed with me through hellbent, and you really know me. your the reason i get out of bed every morning, and sleep every night. your the reason i am the way i am.”
