From Despair to Delight (BakuDeku)-(KiriDeku)

---------- 12 ----------

"No, no, no guys shit that didn't come out the way it was meant to." Denki said as he flailed his arm around in front of him. "Well what did you mean babe?" Kyoka asked her boyfriend "Ok I am so on Izuku's side. I could never be friends with someone who could do that to any one let alone someone they are supposed to love." Denki said looking from his girlfriend first then over to his two friends who were still hugging Izuku between them. Denki patted Kyoka's hand then got up from his seat and moved so he was crouched in front of the still crying man on the couch. "Look Midobro, back in high school most people treated me like I was dumb as a box of rock and maybe I am. But you never did, and when Aizawa told me if I didn't get at least a B+ on my finals I wasn't gonna pass, you're the one who helped me study. I didn't even ask you, you just did it. You may not have been part of our friend group and we didn't really hang out much but I always considered you one of my close friends, and still do." Denki poured his goofy little heart out to the greenie in front of him. Izuku launched himself into the yellow blonds arms hugging him tightly, his tears coming even harder. "That's really great to know Denks. Kacch... er Bakugo always told me that none of you but Kiri actually liked me. He said you just put up with me because I was his boyfriend. I love all of you so much and always consider you guys my friends." Izuku sobbed out onto Denki's shoulder. "He really told you that?" Kyoka asked with anger in her voice. "Y...yeah, it's why I've never gone to any of your concerts, he said you didn't want me there, even though I love you guys music." Izuku said as he let go of the hug he was in with Denki, sitting back in between Mina and Eijiro. Kyoka was very angry. She had always liked Izuku but thought he was stuck up because he only ever came around with Katsuki. "I have to apologize to you Izuku. I always thought you were stuck up because you never came around except when Katsuki brought you." The purple haired woman said. "It's okay Jiro, neither of us knew we were being lied to. I hope we can be great friends from here on?" Izuku asked, looking over at the woman he was speaking to. "Definitely, and you can call me Kyoka right," Came her reply. Izuku smiled at her words "That's perfect and you can call me Izuku, cuz we're friends" Izuku said the tears now gone from his eyes.

Then his phone that was still on the kitchen counter started to ring. Izuku went to get it, recognizing the contact and answering it right away. "Hey Tsu what's up?" Izuku asked into the phone. The other four just watched and listened from the living room. "Omg Tsu, I'm so sorry. Just tell him you havent seen me,"Izuku said, his face going pale. Mina and the others knew what was happening even though they couldn't hear the other side of the conversation. "Look Tsu, I was waiting until Tenya and Ochaco were back so I could explain to you all in person. Just know that he has been hitting me and I officially packed my stuff and left him last night." Izuku said in a hurry through the phone. "Yes I am ok and I'm with some friend that he doesn't know and they are really taking great care of me. I love you too Tsu. Yes, as soon as Tenya and Ochaco are back you'll know everything. Mhmm okay bye" Izuku finally said and hung up the phone. Izuku walked back over to the couch and flopped down in between Eijiro and Mina.
