All Might x Reader (Boku no Hero Academia)

Chapter 56

After all the chaos and turmoil, the clouds of uncertainty had finally cleared, and you could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The knowledge that your beloved sister was now safe and sound was like a balm to your soul, bringing with it a sense of peace that you had not experienced for a long time. However, there were still a few unresolved issues that needed your attention.

You couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that came with the thought of the conversation you had to have with Aizawa. Additionally, you couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt for escaping from your little chitchat with Recovery Girl, which you knew you had to confront sooner rather than later.

The very thought of you fleeing the scene right after she caught you and All Might in a relatively straightforward situation and had just demanded that you put an end to the relationship you had worked so hard to build with him filled you with an overwhelming urge to scream out in despair.

Mainly because... you knew she was right.

As he held you in his arms, the weight of the decision felt heavy. The reset was meant to wipe everything away, to erase the existence of two versions of yourself and your relationship with All Might, and return everything to how it was before.

Yet, something in you hesitated.

Every cell in your body screamed not to do it. Why would you give up the reality in which you could approach, hug, or kiss him if you wanted to? It seemed like a high price to pay just to be with someone you, until now, could only watch from afar, admire from a distance, and silently observe in the classroom.

It was hard to believe that the dreams you held silently in your heart could ever become reality. Yet, against all odds, they did.

So why would you even consider giving up on them now, after coming so far?

No.

No. No. No.

You are a superhero, (Y/N).

Or at least you aspired to become one in the future.

Superheroes do not prioritize their own benefit in the face of danger. Rather, they are willing to sacrifice their lives, and sometimes even their dreams, for the sake of others.

A real superhero shouldn't have such selfish thoughts that were relentlessly attacking your consciousness at that moment, like a swarm of tiny soldiers attempting to breach the fortress of your logical reasoning.

No.

You have thought about it multiple times and already made a decision.

Even if it costs you everything, you will reset this timeline.

Without warning, a sudden and forceful sneeze escaped from your nose. As you tried to rub it, you heard a faint laugh, causing you to feel awkward. Your gaze landed on All Might, his broad smile all over his face, when his last words, "You'll get what you deserve," started echoing in your head. Did he mean he would do something to you once you two got home? Your heart was pounding fast, and you couldn't help but imagine... adult movie scenarios in your head.

As a series of bizarre thoughts invaded your mind, you felt a sudden urge to shake your head in disbelief. The idea that came to your mind was most likely not what your mentor had in mind. You speculated that he might have intended for you to either go for a run or perform a set of push-ups as part of your training.

It wouldn't surprise me at all, you thought, watching his face in silence.

Until he spoke without looking at you even for a second.
