"Love troubles?" Tsuyu gleamed, starting the convo. "Ehhh!!" I started flailing my hands to cover my head as I felt it go a shade redder.

I somehow also accidentally activated my quirk causing my fingers to get third degree burns. "Midoriya-chan! Are you alright!!??" Tsuyu worriedly broke out, stopping my quirk usage. "Haha... yea"

She suddenly switched topics, I think to get my head off K-K-Kacchan.

"So you didn't sleep..." she said tracing her fingertips under my eyelids.
"Mhm..."

We talked over and over, discussing how to deal with these problems in the future. I also borrowed a paper and a pen and jotted these notes whilst we chatted.

It was nice, talking to other girls. I guess more security.

I got home later and was back on my bed. Despite having a fun morning talking with Tsuyu, I was back more depressed than ever.

I also heard mum wake up. It was the weekends and mum usually sleeps in. "Izuku? Are you ok?" Her sound waves altered as they passed through my bedroom door.

I didn't answer. I was busy on my laptop playing games. I stopped searching for heroes to research; which is what I did in my free time.

Before I knew it, it was night. Mum knocked on my door and opened it, "Izuku? Wanna eat?"

"No..." I quietly said, giving her a weak smile.
"Baby... are you alright?" She said coming closer. Crap. I need to find a reason quick or else Mum's mood will also go down... "er... I'm on a diet!" I lied. "Please don't get me down, I won't be able to resist the delicacies you make," I laughed, making her see that I was fine. Mum seemed half-convinced but she was still worrying. I hugged mum to reassure her before she left.

I sat up for a few more hours. The lights were closed and the only light source was from my laptop screen.

My stomach ached from lack of food but now was not the time to eat. Slowly I felt my eyes droop, and waiting for the overflow of sleepiness to drown me out of my misery.
