At the park,
Evening...

Midoriya's POV

"Shinso-kun, what's wrong?" I asked him. He had been dragging me the whole way back to our apartment. Shinso-kun suddenly stopped at the park and let my hand go.

"Shinso-kun,are you okay? You're not acting like yourself at all." I stated in worry. He stared at me in silent. He took a step forward closer to me. He placed his hand behind his neck. It seemed like it bacame his habit.

I was really worried about him now. He had been acting weird ever since that incident but he never mentioned about it so I only stayed quiet. "Midoriya,about the kiss..." Shinso-kun's statement made me blushed in embarrassment.

We both averted our eyes from meeting. "Sorry." He said shortly with cheeks burnt red. "I don't know why I did that...I don't realize what was I doing." He sighed in regret.

I made him...felt bad...

"Shinso-kun..." I called him up in low tone. I didn't want him to blame himself. I took a step closer to him. I swiftly grabbed his hands and held them tightly. He was surprised by my spontaneous action.

"M-Midoriya?" He gave me a strange look. I closed my eyes. "Me too...I'm sorry!" I said half-scream with my cheeks heated up.

I opened my eyes and gazed into his eyes. "Back then,I was too sad to comprehend what had happened. A-And, I-I heard from my Mom that...I-If I reject a man's k-k-kiss, I won't be able to make up with him anymore." I explained.

"S-So, I don't want that to happen to us. I want us to stay friends. T-That's why, I was afraid to reject your kiss back then..." I said while looking down. I tightened my holds.

I was afraid...to lose a friend...
But I was taking advantage of him...
I felt so frustrated...and guilty.
I felt so confused...
My heart had split into two...
Half want to stay with him..
But the other half said the opposite...

I gazed into his indigo orbs deeply. "I don't want...to lose a friend." I muttered. Tears seeped from my eyes.

But I took away his first kiss! I...I...

I was really confused right now! Why did half of me tell me to leave him?!

"Midoriya..." Shinso-kun uttered my name. I slowly let his hands go to cover my teary eyes. I hated crying in front of him for unknown reasons. I didn't want him to feel bad again.

"I understand if you hate me,Shinso-kun...I-I-" I was cut off when my body was pulled into a warm hug. "Idiot. This isn't your fault." Shinso-kun whispered into my ears.

"Don't always put all blames on yourself, Midoriya." He said softly. "I don't want to lose you too." He uttered and I could feel he was smiling.

No,you were wrong. It was all my fault!

"B-But, I stole your first kiss." I denied him. I was really frustrated now. "Midoriya, it doesn't important at al-"

I shoved him away from me to break the hug. "Of course it's important!" I said half scream. I clenched my fists.

"That kiss...You suppose to have with your girlfriend, not me! It should be the most precious memories with your future girlfriend yet I stole it!" I cried out.

"I'm the worst! I stole my friend's first kiss! I-I-I'm a bad friend!"

I was pathetic...
I felt so bad...

Ever since we became friends, no, since the sport festival...
He peaked my interest...
I wanted to know more about him...
But after we became friends,
I had this weird feelings inside me...
Whenever he was closed to me, my heart pounded faster...
When he smiled, I felt so excited and I had always wished to see his smile forever...
When I hurt him, I felt tightness in my chest,it was much more painful than being beated up by Kacchan.

But...
I didn't want to feel like this anymore... It was so confusing and hurt!
I didn't want him to feel like me too...
So...

"So,please...don't..." I harshly shoved him away with powerful force.

I'm sorry,Shinso-kun.
This was for your sake too...
I didn't want to hurt you...

"Please don't look for me anymore!" I yelled at him in frustration and heartbroken. I hurriedly ran away from him.

"Midoriya!" Shinso-kun shouted my name but I had to ignore him even though I wanted to answer so badly.

I just...ended our friendship...
I'm very sorry,Shinso-kun...

I ran away from there with tears falling from my eyes.

Shinso's POV

I watched her figure disappeared in sadness. Why did she suddenly do this...?

Did she hate me that much...? It could be that her friends told nasty things about me that she grew hated of me.

Stealing my first kiss,huh...?
It didn't matter at all to me...
Because...

You're my first love,Izuku.

At least that was how I felt. I thought I really liked her now,more than before we became friends.

But I still couldn't bring myself to tell her. I didn't want to rush thing too soon.

I sighed in defeat. Perharps I should give her time and space before we could make up again.

I walked back to my house while my mind kept thinking about Midoriya.

.....

Nighttime,
Midoriya Household...

Third Person's POV

Inko knocked on her daughter's door. "Izuku, dinner is ready." She told but no answer. She slowly crick opened the door,only to find the room was in pitch black darkness.

"Izuku?" Inko saw her daughter was curling herself in a ball on the corner of her bed. Inko approached her daughter.

"Izuku, what's wrong,sweetie?" Inko spoke up in gentle voice. She knew it,something was wrong with her daughter. She rubbed her back softly to comfort her daughter.

"Mom..." Izuku muttered weakly. "I'm...the worst,right...?" She said in a very low voice,sounded very unenergetic. Inko was surprised with her daughter's statement.

"Izuku,what's going on?" Inko shook Izuku's body slightly. "I just...realized something..."

"Ever since I became friends with Shinso-kun,I...I always involved him in trouble..." Izuku said om sad tone.

"All my classmates didn't seem to like him and ever since I became friends with him, they became more distant with him..." Tears seeped from her big emerald eyes. "Izuku..."

"My friends didn't like the idea of me being friends with him..." Tears trickled on her cheeks faster.

"So,I think...it's better of I don't even exist in his life,right? I mean, I don't want to get him into trouble..." Izuku smiled painfully. Her body trembled.

"Izuku....could be you're in fight with Hitoshi-kun...?" Inko asked her duaghter. Izuku hesitatedly nodded.

"I just...broke our friendship..." Izuku hugged her mother tightly. "I don't want to trouble him." Izuku muttered.

Inko hugged her daughter back. She rubbed her back gently. "Izuku,I didn't know the details but...I know you're doing this because you cared for him, don't you?" Inko asked her softly.

"I truly cared for him..." Izuku mumbled in sadness. This pent-up emotion she had felt ever since that incident really hurt her.

"I want to be by his side. I don't care what other people will say about us. I don't care if my friends hate me if I become friend with him. I just...want to..." Izuku cried louder in her mother's warm embraces.

"It's okay,honey. Everything that happen has a blessing in disguise. It's not wrong for him to become your friend." Inko said calmly.

"I think you should calm yourself first and rest for today. Tomorrow you're going for your internship,right? You should not think much about it..." Inko cupped her daughter's cheeks and smiled warmly.

She pushed her daughter onto the bed and pulled the blanket to cover Izuku. "Good night,Izuku..."

"Good night,Mom..." Izuku muttered and swiftly drove into sleep. Perharps she was tired of crying.

.....

Inko's POV

Izuku was finally asleep. I sighed in relief. My eyes suddenly caught a photo frame in the drawer. I took it and smiled warmly.

"Just like us,right, Hisa-kun?" I smiled warmly at the photo as I remembered my love life with my husband.

It really did resemble our love life, Izuku's story...

I chuckled. I wondered how they would end up.
