Deku, I Love You (complete, Bkdk)

23: Shopping

A/N I don't do shopping so this is fairly inaccurate so I'm sorry TuT ^ accurate representation of me at the mall with my siblings. Me being Deku, that is. I'm also just 1 part today because this was supposed the be just shopping then I thought about how Deku could have a sudden realization and now I wanna do it, as well as the dance because I love writing this series :) <3

Izukus' POV 🥦:

I was overwhelmed. We were at Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall (<canon name finally lmao), and hundreds of stores surrounded me, exceeding my anxiety expectations for the situation. The Dekusquad was trying really hard to help control my anxiety, trying to distract me from where Shigaraki had tried to kill me in the same mall, and trying to focus on finding something appropriate for my dance date with Kacchan. And though I was overjoyed by the fact he asked me, part of me thought it was a joke and that he didn't want to go with me. Uraraka, Tsu, and Momo were trying really hard to help me fight those thoughts while Iida rambled on and on about how Bakugou wouldn't do that, and how unheroic that would be for him to do something. Todoroki was mainly lost in thought, trying very little not to bump into anything or anyone. He had earlier offered to pay for anything anyone bought. We all protested, saying it was too nice of him, but he then replied by saying it was Endeavers credit card. We all silenced and looked at him, that at each other then back at him before bursting out laughing, trying to imagine how he managed to swipe it.  The girls were trying to bribe me into wearing a skirt again, but that brought up the memories of the beach, and that made me flush. I wonder if he remembered the words he spoke to me... how his actions brought blood rushing to my face and my heart flutter. My mind started to wander, circling around the recent actions of Kacchan, his words of kindness, his hugs which so rarely appeared most people figured he was incapable. His laugh, his smile... His laugh. Oh. My. God. The realization of what happened the day after my birthday. I remember that laugh. I had almost forgotten, if not for the flowers on my desk or the drawing hung up on the wall of my room that I admired daily or the note which was safely tucked away in my back pocket.  He drew that. He loved me. He knew me. That realization stopped me dead in my tracks at the opening of the store. The sketchbook, the flowers, his anger at me about to open the sketchbook on his bed. He drew me in there... didn't he...?

Katsukis' POV 😤:

The morons followed me around the mall. Divercity shopping mall, to be precise. I didn't want to run into the nerd and entirely embarrass myself again. We were wandering around aimlessly, stopping in shops here and there and soon we were separated, in different stores each. Dunce face and Shark bait went off with Walking Insomnia to a suit store, tape face with them, and Pinky went off to this elaborate dress store or whatever. Walking around, I felt my phone vibrate in my back pocket. Pulling it out, I saw Dekus' name lighting up my screen. I accepted the call with a gruff "What Deku?"

"I know Kacchan..."

My heart dropped, what did he know? Was it something bad?

"What do you know Deku?" 

"..."

"Thank you for the drawing, Kacchan."

He knew. The line cut off as I was left awe-struck. He figured it out. As that thought sank in, I was left smiling. He's so smart, the nerd. He also probably figured out I was good at drawing and was going to ask to see it. After I asked him to be my boyfriend, I would, if he agreed. Or if I kissed him. I brightened at the thought, and my heart rate picked up as I walked into a store that seemed to fit what I was looking for. Deku would be so ecstatic to see me in a suit. I walked in found the perfect suit and walked out, after paying.
