Hunger - (Vampire Deku, Bakudeku) DISCONTINUED

Chapter 17- Mistakes ⚠️

⚠️ hardly smut, but here's a warning anyway

Deku's POV
-----------------
Sitting back on my heels, I try to steady myself. It tastes so much better than I imagined. Even sweeter than he smells. My body isn't rejecting it, and I feel stronger than before. I'm more awake, and alert. And I... I don't feel hungry. I no longer feel an empty angry hole in my body, or like I'm being torn apart from the inside. I feel like I can fly! I feel so free. I finally feel normal, like a real human being.

I feel my face tighten into a smile. I can go back to having a normal life, I can interact with people, and not worry that I might kill them if I'm too hungry. I can go on long vacations without worrying about how I am going to get food. I can finally live! But... wait, no. It's- it's already going away. I can feel my hunger returning. Maybe I need more? Yeah. Just a little more blood.

I feel my body start to heat up at the thought of feeling that warm, thick, red substance flowing down my throat again. Maybe if I bite somewhere like his neck, I can get more. I don't need too much and he won't mind. I need it, I need it now. I want to feel free again, if only just for a moment. Blood. More blood. More-

"Deku?" He voice snapped me out of my thoughts. What was I thinking!? He had been so generous and I was going to ask for more!? No... it felt like, I was going to take it.

"Yeah?" I'm a horrible person. I look at Kacchan, who is breathing heavily, and slumped over, leaning against the headboard.

"Are you... okay?" He said between breaths, looking at me with his crimson red eyes. No I'm not. I still want more. I can think clearly now, but if he hadn't snapped me out of that, I would have done it. I can feel it.

"Y-yeah." I started making my way to the door. "I'm gonna go to bed now." I rushed out into the hall, and into my room. I'm not sure what's going on, I'm not hungry exactly, but I'm craving... something. What is it? I think its... that feeling of freedom. Either way, I need to stay away from people right now. Especially Kacchan.

I flopped onto my bed. I'm too wound up to sleep right now. But it's almost 1 am. I have school tomorrow so I should really sleep.

I wonder how long I can extend that feeling. Maybe I could be free for a whole week! It probably has to do with how much blood I take in. Would I have to kill someone to last a day? Multiple people for a week... no. I shouldn't even think about stuff like this. But... is it just Kacchan's blood that works? Or is it every one? What about blood type? I have so many questions.

I breath in and I smell, Todoroki? That's weird. The smell gets stronger, and soon after I hear a knock on my door. Could I smell him all the way down the hall? My senses were heightened considerably. I wonder if his blood will work... this isn't good. All I can think about is blood right now.

"G-go away, Todo." He needs to leave.

"Midoriya, please just talk to me. I'm so sorry. What I did was wrong. I feel horrible." He doesn't understand. I'm mad at him sure, but right now I'm more concerned for his safety.

"O-okay come in." That is not what I wanted to say! Shit. My body, I'm burning. He walks in and the room immediately fills with the scent of honey and green leaves. Normal his scent calms me, but now... he sits facing me on the bed.

"Thank you, Midoriya." He starts. "I can't apologize enough. I wasn't thinking rationally, and I let my jealous emotions overwhelm me. I understand that you care for Bakugo. I don't understand why, but I will support you in whatever you do. Before you were someone I liked, you were my friend. I should have put you first, and from now on I will. I swear to never do what I did again. So please, forgive me." He was tensing. Does he think I won't forgive him? Of course I will. How could I not. He was one of my best friends.
