*Izuku's POV*

Even before the dreams started, my nights were always eventful. Insomnia, anxiety, and depression kept me up most of the time, but on lucky nights I could get an hour or two of sleep at least. No one suspected the "good boy cinnamon roll" to have these sort of problems, but then again, neither did I. And even when I was as tired as I could get, I always kept on a smile for my classmates, but most of all for her. The always-smiling brunette with adorable pink cheeks and a lighthearted attitude. She always seemed to cheer others up just with her blinding grin. She made me feel like I wasn't a failure, she made me feel happy, she made me feel.....like my heart was about to explode whenever she came near. I thought we would become heroes together. But then everything....changed. We all woke up one morning to a message downstairs on the TV in the living area saying, "I wish you the best in becoming heroes. But that's not for me. See you all on the other side." The only one that wasn't with us, was her. Uraraka. The girl I liked. And she turned sides. Out of all of us, Bakugo seemed like he didn't care. I felt merciless anger rise in me, but I couldn't act on it. I was too crushed by the thought of not seeing her smile every morning when I came down. Since then, I've never bothered to put on a fake smile again. People worried about me, but I didn't care. I just wanted to see her again. I....I wonder how she's doing with the villains...

Hope you guys enjoyed!
