ㅤ The cold breeze of December blew right between Izuku’s tired muscles and broken bones. Lying in a cold snow with blood over his body from both himself and the villains he just fought with, he can’t help but to crave for his mother’s hot miso soup. The snowflakes falling from the sky accompanied his dry lips as he can almost taste the blood that’s overflowing from his punctured stomach. He’s wrecked and probably dying, no, he’s sure that he’s dying, for unlike from his previous fights, he doesn’t feel like fighting again. As if the battlefield that he’s currently lying on cursed him and drained every fiber of strength and will to fight inside of him.The fight is over, but surely, he didn’t win the war. Villains will just keep on coming and heroes will just keep on dying. How disappointing it is to call himself as All Might’s disciple. “I have always been a disappointment anyway” Izuku uttered, intently staring at the gray sky. He tried to close his eyes, but was immediately reminded by something that he has been trying to forget for a while now.
‘Fight your instinct, these are all nothing but an instinct, you are not my omega and I am not your alpha, such things does not and will never exist for me.’
Aizawa’s voice echoed in Izuku’s fainting mind. He wanted to cry but he can’t, he wanted to scream but his voice was sealed, he wanted to runaway but his legs and body won’t move. He wanted to curse himself but for the sake of his mother, he won’t. From being an omega to being quirk less, the taste of rejection became his mantra all through his life. So why can’t the omega inside of him understand that his faithed pair rejected him? Why does it feel like his heart is being torn into unrecognizable pieces? Why can’t he just simply accept it?The noise of the ambulance rung in Izuku’s ears, but he knows it’s too late. His senses are slowly drifting away to the point that an illusion played right before everything went black; a familiar raven hair kneeling in front of him, shakingly reached for his face while crying.
‘You are an omega’
‘I’m sorry, but your child is quirk less’
‘Give up on your dreams, young man, you will never be a hero’
‘You’re too reckless, injuring yourself for the sake of other people will only put you more and the people you want to save in danger.’
‘You’re too weak to be a hero’
‘Fight your instinct, these are all nothing but an instinct, you are not my omega and I am not your alpha, such things does not and will never exist for me.’
“How long are you planning to fool yourself?”
Izuku stared at his reflection in the mirror
“How long are you planning to hold on?”
“You are weak”
Izuku didn’t say nor do anything, he just plainly stared at the man speaking in front of him.
“I am you and you are me, it is better to give up than to feel this pain, it’s better to just die than to feel this excruciating pain, am I right?”
Izuku dared to speak but in a blink of an eye, he’s suddenly drowning. Drowning in the middle of bottomless and dark ocean. His weak arms tried to reach for what seems to be the little light that was able to pass through the water’s opaqueness yet the ocean and pressure suffocated him. His weakening legs tried to kick for a swim, his body is telling him to survive,
survive?
“For what reason are you trying to survive?”
The voice inside of him made Izuku to stop moving. As his body continued to sink in, he contently closed his eyes. Indeed, there’s no reason to fight anymore, this is it.
“Izuku”
The greenette frantically opened his eyes upon hearing the familiar voice.
“Izuku”
He looked around, but to his dismay, he saw nothing but the emptiness of the ocean.
“Izuku, please”
This time, he is certain. It is Aizawa that’s calling him, it is his mate’s voice, it is his alpha’s voice. Izuku’s chest was suddenly filled with emotions. The suffocation in his lungs gradually disappeared as he dared once again to fight the current and swim himself to the surface.
“Izuku, I’m here, please, please wake up”
The cold enveloped Izuku’s body yet he didn’t mind, he continued to swim and reach for the surface with his weak and aching body. Aizawa is calling for him, his faithed pair is calling for him!
The greenette fought the wave, yet it’s no use. He’s too deep, the ocean is endless.
“Izuku, I’m begging you, please wakeup, wake up for me”
With all the remaining strength in his body, Izuku once again tried to swim. His arms extending to reach the surface.
No, he has come so far, his mother believes in him, his mentor is proud of him. His alpha is calling for him!
‘Izuku, move! Move! Don’t you dare give up! This isn’t like you! Move! Move! Move!’
The greenette yelled to himself.
And to his surprise, the sunlight blinded his eyes as he gasped for some air; he did it, he had reached the surface!
“Izuku” “Izuku” Izuku tried to open his eyes but was blinded by what seems to be a fluorescent. He tried to squint his eyes to see the figure beside him. “Izuku!” The person beside him exclaimed, and it was a voice of a man, definitely not his mother unlike what he is expecting. Regardless, the presence of the man beside him made him comfortable.Eventually, Izuku was able to properly open his eyes. And that’s when it all hit him. He is lying in an unfamiliar bed, in an unfamiliar room, with Aizawa in his side standing and clinging on his right hand.Clinging on his right hand, his alpha—no, Aizawa is holding his hand! “A-aizawa…sensei” Izuku uttered, not breaking his gaze from the way Aizawa is holding his right hand tightly. “Yes, I’m here, I’m here Izuku” The tone in Aizawa’s voice made the greenette to look at him. And there, Izuku saw the expression on the older man’s face that he had never seen before. The way how fear lingers on Aizawa’s swollen eyes made Izuku think that the man is actually here for him; this man cares for him.Izuku’s attention shifted on his hand that’s still clasped with Aizawa’s. Just when he tried to feel the man’s warmth, Aizawa suddenly let go of his hand. “S-sorry, I was just trying to check your temperature earlier” Aizawa simply said without meeting the greenette’s gaze. Although he isn’t moving, Izuku could feel his aching body from the injuries, he can’t afford to overthink something that he already knew so he just closed his eyes. The presence alone of the man beside him could instantly make him calm, but Izuku became greedy as he tried to inhale Aizawa’s sweet scent; such unexplainable comforting and addicting scent, almost driving him crazy. The room is filled with Aizawa’s scent, and he can’t help but to feel the happiness of the omega instinct inside of him. “I know this isn’t the right time to say this but, if you feel like you can hold a conversation already, let me know, there’s something I wish to discuss with you.” Something he wish to talk with?Aizawa’s words made the younger man to open his eyes to look at his direction. Knowing how their last conversation go, Izuku couldn’t help but to feel the creeping anxiety, again. “I just…I just want to talk about us—” Aizawa’s words were interrupted when the doorbell rung accompanied by a familiar voice at the other side of the door. Aizawa hastily stood up to open it. “All Might-san!” Izuku’s face lighten up upon seeing his mentor, to which All Might responded with his usual big smile while walking towards his bed. All Might then bowed at Aizawa’s direction. “How are you feeling, young man?” Izuku tried to sit up. Aizawa reached for Izuku’s arms, attempting to help the younger man but All Might was able to hold Izuku’s arms a little bit sooner than him, leaving Aizawa in the background, not that All Might noticed what he wanted to do.The mentor and disciple quickly engaged in their conversation. Aizawa just took a deep breath and decided to leave the room to give privacy, without noticing the pair of emerald eyes watching him leaving. “He insisted that you should stay here in his house while you’re still recovering.” Izuku looked at his mentor with disbelief in his eyes. “I tried asking him why, what’s his intentions of doing this after rejecting you as his mate…but he didn’t answer me. The next thing I know, he already convinced your mom and asked for her permission for you to stay here in his house.” It was probably because of his aching body that he didn’t feel anything after hearing those words from All Might, rather, his body got used to the pain that all he felt was numbness. “He really is kind, isn’t he?” Izuku stated while staring at the floor. All Might ruffled his green hair as if trying to console him. “He doesn’t want me as his mate but he couldn’t just ignore me, I am his student after all.” Izuku tried to maintain his composure yet tears begun to fall from his eyes. “I never knew that kindness could be this cruel, All Might-san” He said, almost whispering. “He was the one who found you first that day. He insisted to go after you when you recklessly run towards the battle field despite of knowing that other heroes will be there as well.” Still with tears in his eyes, Izuku looked at his mentor after hearing his words. “I knew something was wrong, I did my best to arrive on time, yet, the next thing I saw was you, lying on the ground with deep puncture in your stomach and broken bones. I thought I was just seeing things, but I saw him beside you that day, kneeling, crying, desperately calling out for your name, trying to wake you up.” Izuku thought that it was all just an illusion, seeing Aizawa right before he lost his consciousness that day; too good to be true. But it turns out that it was all true. “What I am trying to say is that, I don’t think this was all just out of kindness, Midoriya. You’re young but you’re old enough to understand these, you’re a smart kid” ***** 11:45 PM Izuku blankly stared at the blinking clock beside his bed. He’s injured and should be resting by now yet he can’t bring his self to sleep. His mentor’s words occupied his mind that he can’t help but to feel anxious and happy at the same time.Aizawa already rejected him, of course he knows it, but All Might’s words gave him a hint of hope; the omega inside of him is yearning for his alpha.Izuku was pulled out of his reverie when he heard Aizawa’s voice at the other side of the door. “Are you still awake? May I come in?” The older man asked, making Izuku to panic while ruffling his green hair and tugging the collar of his shirt to look at least decent in front of Aizawa. “Y—Yes, feel free to do so, sensei!” The door creaked open and Aizawa instantly appeared in front of him wearing a v-neck black shirt and a pair of jeans with his hair tied in a bun. Izuku couldn’t help but to think how gorgeous the man in front of him that he almost forgot to answer when the older man asked him about his injuries. “Midoriya? Are you okay?” “A—anno, I—I’m okay, the pain isn’t that much now” Izuku then tried to sit yet the pain in his stomach made him grit his teeth, making Aizawa to panic and hold the smaller male in his strong arms. “O-oi! I know how reckless you are, but this isn’t the right time to be stubborn, stop pushing yourself too hard” Aizawa stated with a monotone yet firm voice. Izuku just awkwardly nodded. The greenette waited for Aizawa to release him yet the older man scooped him tighter in his strong arms and buried his head on Izuku neck. The pain in his stomach instantly vanished and was replaced by unfamiliar warmth. Aizawa’s strong alpha scent made Izuku feel like he’s melting, completely losing all his reasoning as he leans on the older man’s head, feeling contented and overwhelmed in a good way. “Izuku” Aizawa’s deep voice sends shiver on Izuku body. He wanted to speak but he’s too consumed by Aizawa’s warmth that the only thing he could do is to reach for Aizawa’s shirt as an attempt to pull the older man closer to him. “Closer…closer” Izuku whispered, earning a soft chuckle from Aizawa before pulling his self from the hug. Aizawa lifted the younger man’s chin to meet his eyes. Izuku instantly felt the heat crawling from his cheeks to his ears. He wanted to hide from Aizawa’s gaze but the older man would not just let go of him. “Please look at me” Aizawa stated with a hint of desperation in his voice. He then took Izuku’s scarred right hand and gently planted a kiss before looking at the younger man intently again. “Aizawa-sensei?” “I know, I don’t have the right to say these after causing you too much pain.” Aizawa took a deep breath before speaking. Izuku felt how the older man’s hand slightly trembled and squeezed his. “I’m sorry, I am deeply sorry for saying those words to you, Izuku” Izuku was caught off guard when Aizawa suddenly kneeled in front of him. “Aizawa- sensei—” “I know I am not as great as the other heroes out there; I know that I will never as strong as All Might-san, but please…let me stay with you, please let me stand beside you, please give me a chance, Izuku” Aizawa meet Izuku’s gaze, and there, the younger man saw emotions on Aizawa’s eyes that he never thought he would see. He could tell the sincerity and regret in Aizawa’s eyes, emotions that he never expected to see after being rejected by the same person in front of him. “What am I to you, Aizawa-sensei?” Aizawa was left speechless, even Izuku was surprised by his own question. He didn’t mean to ask such embarrassing question, but thinking about All Might’s words, Izuku couldn’t help but to risk his heart again and ask about something that he already know the answer.Thinking that something perhaps, changed. “a—ahaha, you don’t have to answer that” Izuku stated as he awkwardly laughed. But Aizawa spoke again. “To me, you can be anything, you can be everything you want to be. As long as you’re happy and safe I’ll always be here to support you” Izuku wasn’t able to respond, the next thing he knew, his eyes felt hot as tears begun to fall. “But if you’re asking me as a man…I want to be your mate, Izuku.” No one speaks, no one moves, Aizawa just stared at Izuku while the younger man did the same.Izuku’s mind is drowning in his own thoughts that he didn’t notice Aizawa’s towering body in front of him. The older man suddenly embraced him causing Izuku to whimper out of pain for Aizawa is squeezing his body and injuries. “Aizawa-sensei—” “Y—your scent, Izuku, your scent!” Izuku felt Aizawa’s heavy breath, every breath of the older man sends shiver to Izuku’s skin, making his pheromones to thicken and fill the room. “C—calm down, Aizawa-sensei—” But Aizawa didn’t listen, he hugged the younger man tighter earning whimpers from Izuku. “S—sensei, it hurts” Izuku whispered while sobbing, it didn’t take a second for Aizawa to realize what he was doing and immediately pulled himself from Izuku. “I—I’m sorry!” Aizawa gasped for some air but it didn’t help him, Izuku’s pheromones lingered on his nose making him want to grab Izuku even more. He wants him, he needs him, he wants to claim him!But he knows it’s wrong to push his self to someone. “I—I’m sorry, I…I need to go, I—” Izuku shyly pulled the hem of Aizawa’s shirt, making the older man to look at him. “It’s my fault, I wasn’t able to control my pheromones, so please…please don’t leave…S-Shouta?” Izuku stared at him intently. Aizawa’s trembling hands reached for Izuku’s face even though he knows that he will not be able to pull his self from the younger man once again. Izuku smiled as he leaned on Aizawa’s palm. The warmth of Aizawa’s hand is enough for Izuku to feel as if he’s home. “You will never hurt me, I know you won’t.” Izuku whispered, the older man nodded as he tried to catch his breath; trying to calm himself. “Izuku…please close your eyes.” Izuku just smiled and closed his eyes. His smile grew bigger as he felt Aizawa’s lips against his forehead; gently planting kisses. Aizawa’s kisses went down to Izuku’s temple, eyes, nose, and to his freckles, earning soft whimpers from Izuku. “S—sensei…I want to be your mate.”

“The doctor said that he’s already stable, however, the effect of quirk will last for two weeks.” All Might state while staring at his disciple’s unconscious body. “According to the authority, the quirk isn’t that dangerous, but the victim will experience deep sleep and illusions.” All Might looked at the raven hair beside him, expecting a word. But the man proceeded to walk at the door. “You’re well aware that your presence will make his recovery faster right Aizawa-sensei? After all, you’re young Midoriya’s faithed pair.” Aizawa just sighed and started to walk away. “He’s not my pair.”ㅤ
