   Todoroki grabbed his diary from his nightstand. Nobody knew about his diary and he was glad that nobody knew about it. He looked on his nightstand for a pencil or a pen. He found a pen and opened his diary.
      Dear Diary,
It's April 8th. It's 5:23am. I'm questioning to myself if I'm normal. I'm questioning my sexuality. I don't know if I'm gay, bisexual, pansexual, or straight. Why do people get arrested for being LGBTQ+? I've never been into a girl. I've never had a crush on anyone untill I met Midoriya. I didn't admit it until a few hours ago. I know he won't like me back. I don't believe what Iida said. Even if we did date, we'd both be arrested. Some gay people get killed. Even if you support the community you can get arrested or killed. Why can't I be a normal, heterosexual person? I can't come out to people. I don't know anyone who would support me. I don't even know why I write in here. Bottling up my emotions won't help me, but it's the only thing I can do. I'm stupid for liking Midoriya. I know he probably doesn't think of me as more than a friend. I'm going to try and get some sleep. Hopefully by the morning I won't have a crush on Midoriya. Hopefully by the morning I will be a normal, heterosexual, human. Hopefully if I am gay, my friends will support me. If I could change one thing it would be homophobia. If I was heterosexual I would still change homophobia. Innocent people get in trouble for loving someone. I don't wanna be one of those innocent people. I'm 16. I still have a long life to win. I don't know if it'll be a good life, but I won't know until it happens.
