What Did You Do?

Darkness.

Everywhere I looked, a black abyss stared back.

"Am I dead?"

I tried to say something, anything, but no words came out. 

I couldn't see my body or hear anything other than my thoughts. It was as if my physical body was gone, and my consciousness just floated around in some kind of pitch-black purgatory space.

"Did I seriously die?"

...

"Well... it wasn't the worse way to go out, at least..."

"I saved Izuku... so there's that..."

"Okay, fuck that shit."

But regardless of how much she's pissed me off in the past... All I wanted right then was to hold her against my chest.

...

"I'll miss you..."

As her image faded, I thought back to those times she'd lay beside me, curled into a ball as we both doze of after a long day.

I knew if this was really my end, that I'd never experience it again. And even though I had to carry that burdening thought, with it came the truth about my life.

"It hasn't been that bad."

"Especially these last few days..."

"They've been the most interesting and worthwhile ones I've had in such a long time."
