Reconciled Love [Bakudeku]

Chapter 8

3rd Person’s POV

Katsuki notices that Izuku zoned off so he reluctantly picks Izuku up. Izuku unconsciously wraps his legs around Katsuki's waist while his arms were perfectly around the hi's neck.

This act seemed to snap Izuku out of his trail of thoughts. He proceeded to nuzzle into Katsuki's neck, sniffing his warm caramel and honey smell. He loves it, it calms him down.

The duo walked down the stairs to meet the others. Upon seeing them, Mitsuki and Masaru started cooing. "How are you Izuku?"

"Better since Kacchan is here, aunty" he says looking up at her from Katsuki's shoulder, smiling sheepishly. Izuku looked absolutely adorable.

Everyone soon reached the burial grounds, which were swarmed with reporters.

Izuku was crying, he was held protectively by Katsuki. Katsuki hasn't met Hisashi too much, he hardly knew about him. But hearing Inko ramble about him, he seems to be a good, hardworking man.

No wonder Izuku is crying like this. It was soon time for everyone's speech. 

It was finally time for Izuku to speak.

"I hardly knew my father until 4 years ago. My mother grew me. Dad would send money for our daily purposes. Mom always declined, but he insisted.

The first time I met dad, it was weird and uncomfortable," he chucked remembering that memory. "It took us some time to get comfortable around each other. We did eventually.

I learned about his situation. He had always wanted to come to Japan to live with me and mum. But his work and his health made it impossible. Dad wanted me to stay in Japan.

He thought it would be better seeing that I need a proper, uninterrupted education. But 4 years ago, his condition got worse, so I had to come. I helped him in all ways possible.

I took upon his work on myself. I met three great friends. Dad was proud of me. But then again, it was ruined, he was admitted to the hospital seeing that he was just getting worse.

None of us expected this. I wanted some more time with him. He was a great man. Probable not a great father, nevertheless,I love you, Dad." Izuku finished, chuckling over his tears as Katsuki smiles.

Izuku couldn't stop crying and he didn't even know why. He didn't exactly like his dad, but the feeling of him never being able to seehim again did something to him.

Soon, it was Katsuki's last day of stay at Izuku's place in America. He has to leave, he has already missed a couple of days of school. Even though Katsuki didn't want to go, Izuku forced him to do so.

Who would want to leave their cute boyfriend for some stupid school anyway? But Izuku didn't have it. He had to make Katsuki go, or else it would affect his future. Especially when Katsuki was going to be Izuku’s business partner anyway.

It was a Sunday. The Bakugo's are leaving tonight, which means Katsuki wouldn't attend tomorrow's class too.

"So.. Kacchan.. how was things back in Japan?" Izuku questions, snuggling himself more into Katsuki in their cuddling position.

"Hm? Nothing much I guess. It was alright."

"Kacchan.. did Ura- actually.. how did your project go?" Izuku asks, his eyes betraying him by forcing himself to not look at Katsuki.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing! I was just.. curious.." Izuku mumbles, looking down at his feet.

"Curious if I was cheating on you?" Katsuki questions, his face stoic of any expressions.

"That-... I didn't mean it like that.." Izuku mutters, his hands reaching out to Katsuki, who swats it away.

"What's wrong with you Deku? You were never like this. I don't remember you being like this 4 years ago." He says, standing up and looking at Izuku accusingly.

Izuku immediately stands up too, his eyes red in anger. "What do you mean? Am I not allowed to be insecure? Is that what you mean?"

"That's not what I meant. And you know it."

"Well then tell me what you mean. I don't understand!" Izuku screams, walking towards Katsuki aggressively.

"I'm asking you if I'm not trustworthy! You trusted me those years ago! You believed that our relationship was strong! What happened now?"

"That was 4 years ago. Stop hanging on to the past. You are different, I'm different. We changed Katsuki. Don't tell me I can't be insecure." Izuku yells, walking out of the room.

"Izuku. Stop running away everytime we fight. I didn't tell you that you can't be insecure. Don't twist my fucking words. Fine then. What do you want me to do now?"

"Stop hanging out with Uraraka. That's all I ask for, is it too tough to fulfil?" Izuku asks, turning around with fierce eyes.

The were standing in the kitchen, just a few feet away from the living room, where everyone else were in. The were looking at the pair curiously.

"You want me to stop- ugh! Are you stupid Izuku? I don't even talk with her!" Katsuki yells, slamming his hands on the counter.

"Then what was the project about? You guys were in your dorm for hours."

"That was a fucking project. What do you expect me to do? Say I won't do it because I'm paired up with a person whom my boyfriend's jealous of even though I don't even talk with her?"

"Well, it can't be that hard. I just don't want her talking with you." Izuku yells back. 

"Stop being so damn controlling!"

Izuku gasps softly, his eyes tearing up. He looks away as a small sob breaks out of him. Katsuki immediately realises his mistake, his eyes softening.

"Izu.. hey.. I'm- I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.." Katsuki whispers, reaching out to wipe his tears away.

"No.. you are right.. I am controlling... Sorry, it's just- I don't know anymore. Sorry Kacchan..." Izuku says, running away to his room and shutting himself out.

He wouldn't come out no matter how much the others asked him to.

Katsuki knew. He knew Izuku wasn't in the best place right now. It was neither of their fault! But both of them didn't want to let go of their ego and communicate for once.
