I can't blame it back on everything I've done.

And now there's no-one else left to love...

TW: POLICE BRUTALITY, DEATH/MURDER

[IIDA TENYA]

I was lying in bed, it was late, I was staring at my ceiling. It was dark.

It's been a day since we made up and I can't get him out of my mind.

I'm not thinking about how he cried anymore, I'm thinking about him.

I can't get him out of my mind.

His face, his voice, his walk, everything.

I can't get him out of my mind.

The next day, we were hanging out in my room.

We were both sitting on the carpet.

"Are you alright, Glasses?" He hadn't called me by a nickname in ages. It was kind of nice.

"Yeah," I nodded.

"You've been staring at your lap for the entire time I've been here."

"O-oh." Next thing I know he's lifting my head up, his index finger on my chin, making me keep eye contact.

"Your face is red. Like beet red. Are you getting sick? Do you need me to open a window?" I never noticed how deep his voice is... And how striking his eyes are... And how warm his touch is...

"Um..."

"It's getting redder, is something the matter," He paused. "...Tenya?" He dragged my name out, and took a long look into my eyes.

"It's nothing..." I smiled up at him. 

"Sure." He pulled away sat back down.

Someone knocked. "Iida-kun," It was Midoriya. "It's your turn to make dinner, L/N's as well. If you see him, tell me." Then I heard him walk away.

"You have anything in mind, for dinner?" Y/N asked me. 

I was staring at his lips, then I quickly averted my eyes. I hope he didn't notice.

"I do not." I stated. 

I gulped. Then I noticed he was staring at me. 

"Why so nervous," He mocked Midoriya's voice, "Iida-kun?"

"I'm just a bit tired, nothing to worry about, Y/N." I laughed.

He nodded. I could tell from the way he was looking at me that he thought something was up.

We sat there for a moment then went downstairs.

"I'll be just a second." I said as he went towards the kitchen and I faced the lounge.

"Don't be long."

"I won't."

I hurried over to Midoriya and Uraraka, who were sitting with Kirishima and Yaoyorozu.
