Chapter Text
Todoroki POV:
I entered Izuku's room expecting him to be doing homework. We had gotten pretty close since the Sports Festival. I didn't see him and instead heard crying coming from his bathroom. I ran over and saw him sitting on the ground sobbing, covered in blood holding a razor blade.
"WHAT THE HELL IZUKU?!?" I shouted freaking out
"I-I-I'm sorry I di-di-didn't mean to get carried away" he said through sobs to me. I realized I shouldn't have yelled, I quickly rushed over to help ignoring the blood getting on me. I turned on the water to get a warm bath going for him. I grabbed a rag and ran it under water then started cleaning him as the bath filled.
"Izuku," I said softly "I'm going to need you to let me take your shirt off" he just lightly nodded his head and raised his arms as I pulled his shirt up.
I turned the bath off, then took Izuku's arm. "This might sting a little but it'll make it better." I told him.
He just lightly nodded his head as I took his arms and dunked them into the water to clean the cuts. He winced but didn't say anything.
After I finished cleaning his cuts I grabbed some bandages in his bathroom and started wrapping his arms.
Once I was done I picked him up bridal style and carried him into his bed. He had calmed down by now so I put him down as a went to his dresser and picked a shirt out for him.
"Shoto" I heard him whimper out, I turned to him.
“Yes Izuku?" I said just quiet enough for him to hear me.
”Are you mad at me?" He asked quietly. "No, I'm not mad at you. I know what happened to you when you were younger. I'm more mad at myself for not noticing." I explained as I put his shirt onto him.
"Okay"
He seemed tired so I laid him down on his bed, put his covers on him and went to leave. "Sho, please don't leave" he whimpered.
The way he said that made me want to cry. I didn't cry or leave, I went over and grabbed some spare pillows and blankets to sleep on the floor with.
"Can you sleep in my bed with me? I don't want to be alone" he whispered.
I‘ve had a crush on him since the Sports Festival so to hear him tell me he wants me to sleep next to him made my heart skip a beat. "Sure, I can do that for you."
I slowly climbed into his bed and laid next to him. "Thank you Sho."
I hadn't noticed the nickname the first time but when I did I felt my face heat up. He seemed like he was really tired.
"Get some sleep Izu" I really wanted to test the nickname. "I won't leave until you want me to." He seemed worried I would leave anyway and decided to wrap his arm around me like a teddy bear.
My face was as red as Kirishima's hair at that moment. But I didn't say anything about it. Just stayed still til he fell asleep.
One I was sure he was asleep I took out my phone and texted my sister Fuyumi
F= Fuyumi S= Shoto Bold=Distressed Italics=Sarcastic/Joking
S: Fuyumi!! I found Izuku in his room cutting his wrists so I helped him clean his arms. Then I got him a new shirt, he asked me to stay with him and sleep with him (Not in a sexual way) and now he's asleep with his arms around me!!!
After the sports festival I told my sister about my crush on him and also told her I was gay. I knew she'd be supportive.
F: No way! Is he okay? How much blood was there? Does he need Recovery Girl?
S: He's fine now. He was crying when I found him. He didn't lose to much blood so he'll be fine. I don't think he need recovery girl, I doubt he'd let me take him to her anyway.
F: Okay, well make sure he gets enough fluids like Powerade, make sure he gets enough blood replenishing food like green vegetables and red meat.
S: Ok, I will. Thank you for telling me what to give him when he wakes up.
F: Anytime. Keep me updated!! I gotta go now bye!! Love you!!
S: Love you too! Tell Natsuo I said Hi and I love him!
F: I will. Now get some sleep!
S: Okay mom. Bye! Goodnight
After I said goodbye I turned my phone off and started playing with Izuku's Hair. He seemed to like it because he leaned into it while asleep. I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep for a while after what happened so I just laid there enjoying cuddling with him. Even if he didn't fully know it, I cared for him more than anything.
