Todoroki POV

I pushed shindo off of me I had a knife hidden in my clothes and I used it to stab him in the stomach as I stand up I am pulled into a hug by bakugou I don't know what to feel if I'm confused, sad, happy all I do is hug him back "I'm sorry"I said "don't it's not your fault I'm sorry for everything I said" he said as hugged him tightly as I looked to see shindo on the floor bleeding out but smiling "I can't believe I ever thought I could defeat you" he said I walked next to him as I held his hand "we can still help you you aren't a bad person your just a person who needs help"I said as he laughed

"I think I rather just rest now I'm so tired of trying to fulfill everyone's dreams and well yknow-agh I uh I'm just tired" he said as he chocked in pain "I'm sorry"I said as he held my face "don't be its not your fault I agh I hope you have a happy life you deserve it" he said he smiled once more as the hand he had on my face slide down to the floor

I felt bakugou hold me from behind as I cried into his arms

I was finally free from my father but I couldn't save someone who needed my help

My father dragged once more a innocent life with him and i could stop that

We walked out to see Mina,kirishima, olds, ururuake, midorya, sero I went and hugged my friends as we all cried overjoyed with seeing each other again "we are so happy your ok! You are ok right?"Mina asked "yes I'm fine"I answered "oh but what about that wound!" midorya asked as I look down to my palm "right I will get it bandaged up but it will heal in no time don't worry" I answered as we kept talking I heard kirishima clear his throat "hey uh shoto I think bakugou wants to say or ask something" he said as he backs away I walk up to bakugou as he rubs the back of his neck

"Shoto i know this isn't a right time but I really am sorry about what I said and the whole time in the festival all I wanted to do was tell you how much you ment to me and how I wanted us to be together forever I want you to be my boyfriend do you accept me?" he asked as I nodded and hugged him as he hugged me back "I love you"I said as he laughed "I love you too"

We were happy to be together I know I was I was finally with my friends and family again my father's gone the kingdom will have a better ruler as well but I can't stop think about a great life we lost today because of my father

I know I won't forget about shindo even though i knew him for very little he was still someone who wanted to love but got pushed of the edge and he deserves respect for taking down such a evil man and termination the evil ritual

I wish he saw himself as useful and brave as I did he did what many could never do and I wish he gave himself credit for that.
