I Still Love You: DekuTodo

Chapter 10💔 I Still Love You

     After a few more hours at Ochako's and Tenya's house, Izuku walks into his own home. Downstairs was quiet and dark. Voices were heard upstairs, it was soft but noticeable. He prepared himself for anything he was about to walk in on. He had to let Katsuki know, or else it would eat him alive. Izuku heads up the stairs and walks towards the bedroom. His heart raced as he listened closely. It was Katsuki and another voice that was pretty familiar.

     "Are you sure you want to tell him? He's been through a lot, y'know, after his break up."

     "Tch, don't even remind me. But if he cared so much about that half 'n half bastard, then he shouldn't have been cheating on him with me."

     "I know. There relationship was a very strange one. But everyone could see that they loved each other regardless."

     "It was a fucked up way of showing it."

     "So why'd you contribute?"

     It was silent. But the beating Izuku could hear from his heart made his surroundings sound loud. What is Kacchan going to say? It felt too long, the silence in the bedroom. But then the blonde's voice is heard.

     "I had a crush on him when we were in middle school. I had too much pride to let the nerd know I had affectionate feelings towards him. And when half 'n half beat me to it, I was angry and jealous. Then Deku cheated on him with me after high school and...history was made. But now that I've committed to him this long, I realize that I made a mistake. I ignored the one person who truly cared about me."

     "W-who would that be?"

     "Y'know who I'm talking about, I'm talking about you, shitty hair."

      Katsuki and Eijirou jumps when the door opens. Katsuki sits up faster, seeing Izuku with an unreadable expression had him feel a bit nervous. "The hell are you doing back?!"

"You should've been with Kirishima all this time", Izuku says. "I've been with you all of these years. Breaking my cheating habit, but regretting the hurt I put on Shouchan. But what I didn't realize was that...I hurt you. And I hurt you too, Kirishima. I didn't realize you liked Kacchan, even though your stares and subtle touches were obvious. I just came by to say that this relationship is done between us. We both need to be happy."

Katsuki was always ready to bark back when it came to sappy moments as this. And as vulnerable as he was right now, he was at a loss for words. Eijirou spoke up for him, even though he, too, was at a loss for words. "S-so, y-you're okay with us being together?"

Izuku scratches the nape of his neck. "As awkward as this is for me to just be standing here and accepting this without going off. Yeah, I'm okay. You both deserve each other. Kacchan, if you want to...you can get rid of that necklace I bought you years ago. And stay here, at this house I mean. I have a better one."

As Izuku goes to close the door, Katsuki calls out to him. "Deku!"

The greenette peeks over at him. A shit eating grin on his face. "Go get that bastard. I wish you luck, stupid nerd."

Izuku eyes widen a bit before his heart skips a beat and he smiles. "Thanks."

Izuku felt like he was floating as he heads out of the elevator of the apartment. He walks down the hallway, careful not to run so he wouldn't disturb the neighbors. Further down was Shouto with Hanta. He slows his speed until he comes to a stop. Oh no. No, no, no, no. Shit, I'm too late.

"Izuku?"

     Waking from his daydream, Izuku is staring face-to-face with Shouto. He looked just as shocked as he was. Hanta stayed behind, bags in his hands. Most likely Shouto's bags. Shouto let's his suitcase down. "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
