Izuku POV
After dinner, and getting to know Todos siblings. Me and Todo helped with the dishes and picking up leftovers. After helping and thanking Fuyumi for dinner Todo and I went back upstairs to his room.

His room was really simple. Like- really really simple. It's literally a modern Japanese room. He has a futon in the middle a low desk with a cushion under it. That was about it besides a small bookshelf on side of the desk.

It fit his personality, well just his outer personality, he's very easy to please and is a really simple guy, he just has really complex motives and a complex background.

I'm lucky to have met Todo, he really is sweet. And I wouldn't of had a place to go if I hadn't met him.

"Sooooo, you wanna keep zoning out or do you wanna do something?" he gets in front my face looking into my eyes.

"Oh sorry haha I was just thinking about some things." I say smiling sheepishly.

He sits back down in his original spot nodding quietly.

"Are you ok?" Todo asks quietly. We make eye contact and I don't know what to say.

What am I suppose to say 'ahaha you know kinda feeling like I could cut myself and slit a vein and watch the world burn because my mom died' hell no that's just pathetic.

I look down on the floor tearing up from that simple question.

"I-.. I really miss her." I say quietly my voice breaking as I hold back tears.

It's funny how such a simple sentence can hold so much meaning. It's funny how a simple question can have such great impact. I chuckle bittersweetly , the irony is so fucking real.

I hear small movements nearing me but I don't dare to look up or else my tears might fall. So I stay looking to the floor messing with my fingers hoping my anxiety calms down.

Then I feel two arms wrap around me cautiously. Almost as if I could break at any moment. I guess he was right to do so though, I really am a ticking time bomb.

"Izuku.. it's ok to miss her you have every right to be sad, and it's ok to be sad for a bit, just don't sit there for to long or else you might become stuck." Ive heard similar words before, from my mom, and Pinterest because I don't have many real life people I actually know.  Yes the internet plays a huge roll in how I think, I'm sorry not everyone can have connections especially since I'm a dumb nerd and a nobody.

Those words struck me hard and before I knew the tears started to fall silently. I sniffle quietly hugging todo back clutching him as if my life depended on it.

He quietly rubbed my back whispering sweet nothings in my ear till I stopped crying and eventually fell asleep.

Todo is a really good guy and I don't know what I'd do without him. I'm really glad he's my friend.

And I'm really glad we bumped into each other that day.

Time skip to the morning~ no todo and Izu will not get together just friendship growing and stuff plus I like fluff I think it's nice and I'm lonely and on the brink of dying so bear with me~~~~~~~~~

I woke up not on my futon but actually in todos arms in his bed. I didn't mind his bed was unreasonably comfortable and I felt oddly safe in his arms. But then again it's most likely because the only affection I've gotten from a different human was just hugs and the occasional kiss on the head from my mum. I could fall back asleep easily but I guess not since I'm already up. I might as well just stay here since I don't wanna wake up todo, I've caused him enough trouble as is intruding in his room and crying on him then passing out from exhaustion.

I really can't complain though considering I slept really well. Like realllllllly well that was like the best sleep of my life. And I feel very refreshed but I probably look like stale bread in a dumpster from crying. My eyes feel puffy and my nose is stuffy and my eyes are crusty.

I yawn quietly rubbing my eyes. I would stretch but I don't want to wake up todo. So I sit there desperately wanting to crack my back but waiting till Todo wakes up.

Although I don't know when he went to sleep. And I'm sure I was heavy to carry to bed so I'll just suffer for a bit. It's honestly the least I can do.

As I wait I look around- well I say around more like at the bed and Todos sleeping figure. He looks- he actually looks just like he does when awake his eyes are just closed. The only difference is that he doesn't look as tense.

I smile, I'm glad he can sleep and isn't as tense around me anymore.

My eyes flicker to todos arms moving bringing me closer to him, I feel like he cuddles something usually so that might be why he's hugging me closer. I giggle for such a laid back guy but it is always nice to hug something while sleeping, it kinda makes you feel less lonely. (not guaranteed I cuddle things then cry because I'm lonely pls send help)

It's weird I can hear his heart beat slowly and it's very calming. I don't think I've ever been so comfortable around another person it makes me happy. I do wish sometimes I could be a extroverted popular guy that everyone talks to and is loved by everyone. But that's only sometimes, if anything I just want one maybe two friends, two really good friends that I can talk to anytime anywhere and feel safe around. I feel like I want to much and two good friends are hard to come by but I think Todo and Kacchan might be everyone I need.

Of course it'd be nice to have a lot of friends, but that's to much to keep up with and I still want time to myself and be able to breathe, to many people are trouble and that's how drama starts and I do not want that. I smile to myself happy. I feel sad my mum's not here. But I feel content?

I dont know  if  it's because I've made up with Kacchan, or if it's because I cried so much last night, or maybe it's because I met Todos family. Hell it could be I'm sleeping over at Todos for the first time and feel closer with him. I don't know but I like this feeling.

Maybe things do get better.  I close my eyes smiling as a tear rolls down my cheek. Todos heartbeat lulling me to sleep.
