Chapter 11

Catching Ash singing

Todoroki's POV

I hear a sweet melody from Ash's room. I grab Bakugou and we walk to her room. Bakugou's parents join us when we reach her room. We peek in to see Ash sitting on her bed humming as a girl strums a guitar then she began to turn the hums into words

"How can I say this without breaking

How can I say this without taking over

How can I put it down into words

When it's almost too much for my soul alone

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

And it hurts like hell

Yeah it hurts like hell

I don't want them to know the secrets

I don't want them to know the way I loved you

I don't think they'd understand it, no

I don't think they would accept me, no

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

And it hurts like hell

Yeah it hurts like hell

Dreams fight with machines

Inside my head like adversaries

Come wrestle me free

Clean from the war

Your heart fits like a key

Into the lock on the wall

I turn it over, I turn it over

But I can't escape

I turn it over, I turn it over

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

I loved and I loved and I lost you

And it hurts like hell"

I held a hand over my mouth at the words that had come from her mouth. The girl mumbles something then plays a different to tune. Ash takes in a breath

"I'm sorry mom and dad

I know I've messed up bad

I should've, should've done, should've done better

I'm sorry mom and dad

For all the time I had

To get my life, to get my life together

But I didn't

1993

You gave birth to me

Sweet little baby girl

Had the world at my feet

Before I could even stand

Cradled me in your right and your left hand

A precious bundle of unmade plans

Hopes and dreams of bigger things

A bright future

So it seemed

But that light grew a little less bright

As I grew up and we began to fight

When I was 13

I was so damn mean

Running away

Had nothing more to say

Than "I hate you"

But that's not true now

I just don't, I just don't, I just don't know how

To say

I'm sorry mom and dad

I know I've messed up bad

I should've, should've done, should've done better

I'm sorry mom and dad

For all the time I had

To get my life, to get my life together

But I didn't

You never talk about me to your friends

Because you must be so embarrassed

I dropped out of college without any plans

Moved back home, I couldn't even pay rent

I was living on your couch

Trying to figure it out

Cutting myself up

Tearing myself down

I'm sorry mom and dad

I know I've messed up bad

I should've, should've done, should've done better

I'm sorry mom and dad

For all the time I had

To get my life, to get my life together

But I didn't

I'm sorry that I couldn't buy you that house upon the hill

Or take care of all your medical bills

I know I didn't make you proud

I should've been someone by now

But I never figured out how

I'm sorry that I couldn't buy you that house upon the hill

Or take care of all your medical bills

I know I didn't make you proud

I should've been someone by now

But I never figured out how

I'm sorry mom and dad

I know I've messed up bad

I should've, should've done, should've done better

I'm sorry mom and dad

For all the time I had

To get my life, to get my life together

I'm sorry mom and dad

I know I've messed up bad

I should've, should've done, should've done better

I'm sorry mom and dad

For all the time I had

To get my life, to get my life together

But I didn't

Sincerely, your daughter"

Ash hugs the girl and thanks her. The girl says hello to us and walks out. I coulsn't hold it anymore. I rush and wrap my arms around my baby "why" I whispher

"I am sorry I didn't mean to scare you" she says

"Please if anything happens tell me" I say still holding my baby girl
