~Izuku's POV~

Time stopped. My breathing slowed. Everything was still. All I could hear was my heart beat.

Ba-dumb...ba-dumb.

"I've started training someone new, recently..."

Ba-dump...ba-dumb.

"He's really good and he's a fast learner..."

Ba-dump...ba-dump.

"...I think...that..."

Ba-dump...ba-dumb.

"That he should be One For All's new holder..."

Ba-dump...ba-dump.

"H-he's a lot stronger...a-and quicker...!"

Ba-dump...ba-dumb.

I slowly reach up to my hair and pluck a strand, bring it to my face, staring...The green strand swayed in the gentle yet cold wind. I move a shaky hand towards All Might and gave it to him. My face was covered with a shadow but my lip was quivering, my eyes were hot and I could feel my heart starting to beat faster.

Ba-dump, ba-dump, ba-dump,ba-dump...

He slowly took it from me and I feel his eyes on me, looking for any sign of movement...emotion...sounds... I see his hands move slightly to comfort me but I just turn around, my feet feeling heavy and started walking. I walked a few steps then stopped...

"I hope he succeeds..."

And with that, I walk away. I was looking at the ground and my face was red from my crying. I don't know how long I cried for or where I am. I just walked, my eyes cloudy from the tears, my hands in my pocket and me...I suddenly stop and look up, Shoto...

I was in front of Shoto's dorm room. My lips parted into a small smile. Me and Shoto have been together for about 6 months since I've been to UA and its absolutely perfect. He makes me feel whole and is so caring. I sniffled and knocked on his door.

Huh? No answer. I check the door and it was open so I went in. What I saw completely shattered my broken heart. 

"Sh-shoto...?" I said quietly.

He whipped his head up looking at me with eyes full of fear,

"M-midoriya, I-I ca-"

Before I let him finish I ran out,

"N-no, no no no no, b-baby please!" I hear him yell.

I ran and ran and ran, finally reaching to my house out of breath, with red puffy eyes and my face drenched from my tears. I open the door with a shaky hand trying my best not to break down right here,

"M-mom?" no answer.

"Guess she's not home..." it came out like a whisper.

I ran up to my ran shutting the door immediately dropping to the floor crying. My breathing was uneven, my hand clutching my chest, my eyes red and swollen from the new set of tears and my other hand over my mouth to prevent me from screaming. I just laid there, face first in the floor balling my eyes out. My heart feels like somebody's squeezing it. My chest feels like its being stepped on. My eyes are like a river and I feel myself drowning...

Drowning and there's nothing around me to grab on too. Everything's gone...

Everything's gone...I start slamming my hands against the ground in frustration and grief. But no matter what I do...I still see...

His face when he said,

"He's stronger.."

Breathe in.

"And he's faster..."

Breathe out.

"He's a quick learner..."

Breathe in.

"M-midoriya..."

Breathe out.

"Baby please!"

Breathe in.

His hands around her waist and in her hair...

Breathe out.

Her on his lap, hands around his neck...

"AHHHHHH! STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP! ITS NOT FAIR! SHUT UP! I-Its not fair...stop...*hic* p-please...*hic*"

I stop hitting the floor. I'm breathless, I can't move. I'm just there, my eyes closed trying to shut out the thoughts,

"Hey, baby.."

"That's the first time you called me that..."

Stop it...

"Young Midoriya! How are we today?"

"*giggles* All good!"

Please.

"H-hey Shoto..."

"U-uhm um...I...I"

"*laughs*"

I can't take it...

"Eat this!"

"W-what?!"

Please...

I wake up from my mother's scream,

"Izuku!" she hugged me.

"A-are you okay?!" she asked checking me for any signs of hurt.

I smile weakly before gently hugging her back with the energy I have left.

At least I have you...

"Y-yeah.." It came like a whisper and my voice was raspy from crying.

Guess I fell asleep on the floor. My mom helps me up and guides to my bed where I lay down giving her a half-hearted smile and telling her that I'm okay.

"Don't worry. I'm fine..."

She nods and walks out.

I lay on my bed silently crying. My tears are spilling out and no matter what I did, they didn't stop. I close my eyes blocking out any sounds trying to find the silence when they started again,

"Can we cuddle?"

"Come here!"

Stop it.

"Don't push yourself Young Midoriya! You're a very capable young man."

Stop!

"I love you Izuku..."

Leave me alone...

"Excellent job today, Young Midoriya!"

P-please...

"You have no idea how much to mean to me..."

You mean a lot to me too...

"M-midoriya!"

"Baby please!"

I can't take it anymore...

I sat there lost in thought, slowly sinking to the bottom of  my river of tears, when I see light and an arm. I grab onto it breaking the surface of the water when I see her...my mom.

"Izuku! Izuku! Are you okay, sweetie, you're crying?! Did something happen?!"

I pulled her into a hug sobbing and shaking violently. She just holds me, patting my back in attempt to calm me down,

"H-he just...He said he would stay...a-and that I would prosper *hic* he told *hic* loved me *hic* I was capable...he *hic* he *hic* h-he-"

"Shh...It's alright, why don't you calm down and talk to me, I can't understand what you're saying."

I try to calm myself down and talk but all that comes out is heavy breaths and tears. I can't even speak, my throat hurts but the tears just keep on coming. My mom quietly leaves the room and comes back shortly with a cup of coffee for me to drink. She wipes my tears and gives me a soft kiss on my forehead calming me down and then I spoke...

I: "He said he was stronger...more capable,"

I: "He said he would love me no matter what..."

Inko: "Who? Who said that?"

I: "T-they left me there. T-they j-just left me, a-all alone and heart broken!"

Inko: "Izuku, I don't know who you're talking about..."

I: "Sh-shoto, he said he'd always be here...A-all Might s-said I could've become hero..."

Inko: "Can you please explain the full situation?"

I take a shaky breath...

I: "All Might said to meet him in his office outside of UA so of course, I went and we talked for a while. I knew something was up cause he was stuttering a bit and appeared nervous but I just shrugged it off. After about a few minutes her started asking about One For All..."

-FLASHBACK-

All Might: "S-so how's One For All been with you?"

Izuku: "Its been good! I miss your training though. Why'd you stop training me anyway?"

All Might: "*sigh* Young Midoriya we need to talk..."

-END OF FLASHBACK-

I: ""And then he said it.."

Inko: "Said what?"

I: "H-he...he...h-he said that he found someone else to pass on One For all to."

She just looked at me, tears building up in her eyes and embraced me,

Inko: ""I-I'm so sorry Izuku!"

She pulled back wiping her tears,

Inko: ""Y-you said something about some Shoto?"

My heart ached at the name...

I: "Y-yeah...my boyfriend, well ex actually..."

Inko: "You mean Todoroki?!"

I: "He cheated on me with Uraraka. H-he just threw away our relationship like...L-LIKE IT MEANT NOTHING TO HIM!"

I: "S-sorry for yelling..."

She wiped my tears and set me down on my bed and told me to get some rest. And when she left, I cried myself to sleep.

~3rd Person POV~

-The Next Morning-

Class 1-A had already heard about what happened with Todorki and Izuku and was already gossiping to their friends making the entire class noisy. Katsuki walked in class and sat to his seat before his friends came up the him,

Kirishima: "Hey bakubro, have you heard?"

Katsuki: "Heard what shitty hair? I just walked in!"

Kirishima: "About Todoroki and Izuku."

Katsuki: "Hah? Why would I hear about the nerd and icy hot,  they're extras."

Denki: "No, they broke up..."

Katsuki: "What? I don't care. Why are telling me this?"

Mina: "Apparently Deku cheated..."

Kirishima: "Yeah but Deku doesn't seem like the type, I was surprised."

Katsuki: "Tch. Idiot, he would never do that! Where is he anyway?"

Denki: "Yeah he isn't in class yet and it starts in 10 minutes..."

The bell rang and Aizawa still hadn't reached class. Five minutes after, Izuku walked in class holding his straps on his bags and saw almost everyone looking at him with hate filled eyes.

Izuku: "U-hum guys...?"

Momo: "You should be ashamed of yourself."

Iida: "I do not condone this type of behavior!"

Asui: "I didn't think you would do that Midoriya."

Tokoyami: "You really surprised me Midoriya."

Izuku: "W-what?"

Uraraka: "Don't act stupid! You tried to cheat on Todoroki with me!"

Izuku: "W-what? No I-"

Uraraka: "Yes! Stop Lying!" 

Izuku: "N-no!"

Izuku couldn't believe his eyes. They had twisted that whole story and turned it on him. He didn't even want to go to class today but he thought since he would be leaving soon, he would at least spend time with his other friends but that wasn't the case...

Izuku: "N-no I didn-"

Aizawa: "What is going in here? Why are you out of your seat Midoriya? Please go take a seat, we're already behind schedule."

Izuku: "Actually Mr. Aizawa, can I talk to you outside...?"

And with that Izuku told him about All Might and explained that he wouldn't be in the hero course anymore and he would be in the General Education course of UA. Aizawa looked at him with sorrow filled eyes before hugging him,

Aizawa: "I'm going to miss you problem child..."

We went back in and I stood in front of the class,

Izuku: "H-hello! I-i know t-that you don't wanna see me but I have something to say...This half a term with you all has been very fun and adventurous and I've made many friends however all good things come to an end. Many of you mightn't see me as a good person anymore for a reason I'm not going to name however I am simply going to say that I didn't do it. You probably won't believe me but I can't do anything about that. It's all up to you whether to believe me or not. I really appreciate everyone of you and I'll never forget you all. What I'm trying to say is...because of personal reasons, I am leaving the hero course permanently and moving to the general education program of UA. I've already spoken to Mr. Aizawa and unfortunately I'll still be in my old dorm because of lack of space on UA. Thank you for hearing me out. I'll be leaving now. Goodbye." 

Izuku left the room with tears streaming down his face and went straight home where he just cried on his bed. Class 1-A was shook and didn't know what to believe. They were all confused on why he had switched.

Katsuki: "WHAT THE FUCK? HE CAN'T JUST LEAVE!"

Kirishima: "Yeah, why did he leave?"

Mina: "He looked to hurt when he was speaking? What happened?"

Aizawa: "He no longer has a quirk..."

Class 1-A: HUH?!"

The bakusquad couldn't believe it and what made it worse was that class 1-A didn't believe Izuku and some was actually glad he left. After school had finished Katsuki left heading straight for Izuku's home. When arrived he knocked on the door but there was no answer. He slowly opened it and saw that no one was home. He made his way to Izuku's room and opened the door. There was Izuku, crying his eyes out clutching a pillow and shaking. Katsuki couldn't believe his eyes, he just stood there, 

Katsuki: "D-deku..?"

Izuku: "Huh? O-oh, kacchan, D-do you need something...?"

Katsuki: "Tch. Damn nerd..."

Katsuki went over and pulled Izuku into a hug. Izuku tensed at the sudden hug but then completely broke down in Katsuki's arms. Izuku cried for what felt like hours before pulling away and looking at Katsuki with swollen eyes and a red face from crying. Katsuki looked at Izuku and said, 

"Come on lets freshen you up and then get to bed."

Izuku went and took a bath before changing into a hoodie and shorts. Katsuki tucked him in bed. Izuku fell asleep in an instant leaving Katsuki watching him. Katsuki stared at Izuku, watching his chest fall up and down, monitoring his breathing, looking at the freckles sprinkled on his face as he felt his face getting hot, he slowly made his way to Izuku's head, lightly kissing it before leaving,

"Tch..."
