At first we're laughing Now we're crying (Depressed deku x Bakugo Book #1)

Chapter 1 rewritten

Instead of rewriting the entire book, take chapter 1, but rewritten!

Green valley, that's what My name meant. However, I don't feel as beautiful as a green valley. I don't deserve a name like that. I wanted to run away from expectations. Running away from people's expectations. Expectations of being Nice and pretty. That wasn't me at all. People who are like that, are never at a loss for words. The complete opposite of me. I still look awful, but it's really nothing new. My hair a mess, my mouth always has a frown. The way I walk and move around I'm really tired of it all and hate how it's my fate to lose. Man... I hate being me.

I can't express being myself, well, mainly because I have no emotions whats so ever. I can't even put my thoughts into words. Yet I have so much that I want to say But whenever I try to, nothing comes out of my mouth. I lose the words I found. "So now he can't even greet us?" they would sigh "The poor thing"

Because the world is full of so many riddles and mysteries, Wishing for "normal" is like wanting to fly without a quirk.

How did I turn out like this?

Well, it happened a long time ago. When I was in Elementry school, My Dad went on a business trip to America. He didn't want to leave us alone, so he took us with him. My Dad had to run an errand, so we stayed behind. While we were in the hotel, apparently, something happened in the kitchen, and the hotel caught fire. My Mom, saved me, but at the cost of her life. Ever since then, I have felt not a single emotion. The only time I feel something is when I cut. Although that's not the best of ideas, I didn't care at that point.

Coming back to present times, I'm in U.A Now. But now, I hide my face using a sketchbook, with drawn expressions. I even have an electronic version That Hatsume made. I starting using the sketchbook on my first day of U.A.

The Sketchbook Idea was inspired by a member of one of my favorite idol groups.

As I walked down the street, Sketchbook in hand, I spotted Kacchan walking ahead of me. I internally panicked, this is bad, what if he sees me?

Before I could think, I ran right past him.

However...

" Wait! Deku-"

Suddenly he grabbed my arm and pulled me backward.

When I looked back, a truck passed.

...

WAS I ABOUT TO GET ISEKAID-

I quickly shook the thought out of my head. No way that'll happen. It's not even August the 15th. So an eye power is a no go. But one could only wish. I quickly covered my face with my sketchbook before Kacchan could see. I quickly ran past him before he could say anything.

I entered the classroom, absolutely exhausted. I heard footsteps running towards me. "Deku are you ok?! Your sweating like crazy!" Uraraka had said. I smiled nervously, well, technically the drawing on sketchbook smiled nervously. "I'm fine I swear-" But I was interrupted.

"He was almost hit by a truck that's why."

"HE DIDN'T HAVE TO SAY IT SO BLUNTLY!!!" I internally screamed. Uraraka and Iida gasped," Midoriya are you all right??!!" Iida yelled.

"I'm fine, no need to be so worried."

>>>>>>>>

"Hey Deku! You wanna eat lunch with us?" Uraraka asked. I shook my head, "No thanks. I'm not hungry." Uraraka nodded and we parted ways. I looked around, no one was here. Nice! I made my way towards the music room and lowered my sketchbook down. I figured I'd sing for a bit, I get embarrassed at home, especially when dad's around. So when I'm alone, I tend to sing. Well, here I go.

( I swear to god Kagepro songs make me cry!!! I WANT EVERYONE TO GET INTO THIS SERIES!!!"

Once I finished singing, I swear I saw someone by the door. Well, probably my imagination.
