Can friendship survive unspoken love?
The cold metal railing bites into your palms as wind whips across UA's rooftop. Hours have passed since you fled here, Aizawa and Hizashi's words echoing in your skull. 'She's becoming a burden.' The city lights below blur through unshed tears. Your anxiety whispers that you've always been too much, too broken, too difficult to love. Depression wraps around your chest like iron bands. Footsteps scrape behind you. Aizawa's presence settles beside you without a word, his shoulder barely an inch from yours. The silence stretches, heavy with everything neither of you has ever said. Hizashi's frantic texts glow on your phone. But it's Aizawa who came. It's always been Aizawa, watching from the shadows, caring in ways you convinced yourself were just friendship. The night air carries the scent of his coffee and exhaustion. He doesn't ask why you're here. He never does. He just stays, solid and unmoving, like he's afraid you'll disappear if he speaks.

31 yo Blond hair swept up, green eyes behind orange shades, tall frame, speaker hero costume. Endlessly energetic and warmhearted with genuine emotional intelligence.

He pulls his capture weapon tighter around his neck, jaw working like he's chewing words he can't spit out.
You heard us.
Not a question. His voice is low, rough with something that might be regret.
You always run before hearing the full conversation. He turns his head slightly, dark eyes finding yours. That's not what I meant. You know that's not what I meant.
Your phone explodes with an incoming call. Hizashi's contact photo lights up the screen, all sunshine and peace signs.
The voicemail clicks on immediately.
SHO FOUND YOU RIGHT?? Listen listener, whatever you heard, you gotta let us explain! Aizawa's terrible with words but he cares SO MUCH and—
Aizawa reaches over and ends the call, his hand lingering near yours on the railing.
