Selfharm urges

Midoriya got a knock on his room door a few hours after school had ended for that day. He was working on his homework and listening to some music, so he didn't notice the knocking right away, but when you knocked harder, he almost fell out of his chair, and came to open the door for you.


"Ah, (Name), sorry I was focused on my homework" he said and rubbed the back of his neck with an awkward smile.


"Can I talk to you a bit? I know you're busy but-but I could really use some help" you said shakily.


Deku picked up on you being uncomfortable about something and let you into his room. You sat down on the floor, and he sat down opposite of you, looking at you with a worried expression.


"I have a confession to make" you sighed.


"What kind of confession?" he swallowed nervously.


"I've... I've been struggling with self harm... and I'm having a hard time staying clean"


"Oh"


"Yeah, I wouldn't really know what to say either"


"I'm sorry, I don't really know how to help" he said quietly.


"No no, I wasn't really looking for advice anyway, I just wanted you to know" you shook your head.


"Is there anything I can do?"


"Just listening is enough" you gave him a small smile.


"I can do that, yeah definitely" he said enthusiastically.


"Thank you, Izuku" you said and grabbed his hand, giving his knuckles a little kiss.


"No-no problem" he stuttered with a flustered expression.
