Y/n stood at the side of the gymnasium, watching everyone having a good time. She was the only one in the room just dressed in an oversized hoodie and jeans. Her hood drifted over her head, casting a shadow over her eyes as tears started flowing. 

Dammit Y/n stop crying! It's not that big of a deal! STOP HE DOESN'T THINK ABOUT YOU, SO DON'T THINK OF HIM! She clenched her teeth as more tears started flowing. She looked up, seeing Izuku and Ochaco standing next to each other, hand in hand. Though she didn't notice Izuku staring at her in concern. 

He watched as she ran out of the gymnasium, hurting inside. She went out for some fresh air. It was dark and cool outside, the smell of food coming from back inside.

Y/n walks towards the dorms, noticing there were no couples around. She pushes the door, noticing it was unlocked. She peeked inside, making sure there was no one around. She sighed walking towards the piano in the corner of the room. She pulled out the bench frmo under it and sat down in front of the piano, crossing her arms and resting her head on the rim of the piano. She repeatedly dragged her wrist across her eyes, collecting herself together. 

After a while, she sat up, opening the piano revealing its clean, white, untouched keys. She gently slid her fingers on the keys, finding the right notes for the chords. She rested her right foot on the sustain pedal, getting ready to start playing. She breathed quietly, emptying her mind of scenes of Izuku and Ochaco, only leaving Izuku and only Izuku. She smiled, beginning to play the chords, gently pressing the keys.

"Here Izuku! I brought you sone fruit punch!" Ochaco smiled, handing to him.

"...thanks..." He frowned, setting the glass down on a nearby table. Where did y/n go?-

"What's wrong, babe?" His eyebrows furrowed slightly. He turned to her.

"Don't call me that-"

"Aww you're so shy! It's adorable!" She exclaimed, pinching his cheeks. He gently pushed her away in annoyance. I don't wanna hear that from you. You're the reason I'm being pulled farther and farther away from y/n. He quickly started walking at the side of the gymnadium towards the exit until he was then again stopped by the bubbly barrier.

"C'mon Izu." She pulled him towards the middle of the dance floor. "Let's dance!-"

"NO!" He forcefully pushed her off of him, knocking her back onto the floor. The room got quiet, everyone turnef their way. Her eyes widened in disbelief as small tears started forming. "I DON'T WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU..NOR DID I EVEN WANT TO COME WITH YOU!" She sat up and wiped her tears as she began crying. "I DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR YOU. YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN IN THE WAY OF ME AND Y/N. EVERY CHANCE I GET TO TALK TO HER, YOU ALWAYS DRAG ME AWAY! HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF MY FEELINGS?! Y/NS?!"

"..."

"..."

Everyone watched in agape as Izuku silently walked out of the gym, leaving Ochaco in a pool of tears.

"Y/n! Y/nnnn! Where are you?" He heard sounds of music coming from the inside of the dorminoties. Well...I'll talk to her tomorrow...He opened the doors revealing a dark empty room with a silohette of someone playing the piano.

"I can't help but love...you...even though I try not..too..." Izuku quietly walked closer, trying not to get them to notice him.

"I can't help but want...you...I know that I'd die without...you..." Y/n ended the song and rested her arms and head on the piano. She cried silently. Izuku stood behind, watching as he cried. It destroyed his heart seeing her like this. He dropped to his knees and hugged her from behind, resting his head on her bass. Y/n flinched from the sudden warmth she felt around her.

"I-I'm sorry, y/n. I haven't been hanging out with you for a while..."

"..." Silence.

"...I should've stood up for myself everytime Ochaco took me away from you...I've always tried to be with you everytime you're alone, like that time when you were sitting alone at lunch."

"..."

"I...was actually going to ask you to come to this party with me, but," He sighed and hugged her tighter.

"...Ochaco..asked me instead. I couldn't say no because I don't enjoy hurting peoples feelings, but I regret doing that now. I now, finally, realize that people are always taking me lightly. As if I can't fight back...I hate it." Izuku stood up and sat on the piano bench with her. She sat up as Izuku took her hands in his.

"I-I...promise I'll stand up for myself next time something like this happens. Um..." He held her hands close to his lips. "I...really like you and...I wanna protect you...I uhm-" Y/n slowley cupped his cheeks and smiled. Her heart was beaming with joy.

"I like you too!" She hugged him and rested her head on his chest. Izuku felt at peace, feeling her warmth on him. Mmm... everytime I tried hanging out with you, I've always tried to twll you my feelings. I'm so happy I'm with you now♡
