lost and found love (kirideku)

Part 4

Deku's pov

The room was queit as I walked away with Uraraka trailing behind me. I headed for my dorm so that we could get some privacy to talk. My heart felt dead in my chest. We arrived at my room and I closed the door behind us. Neither of us said a word.

"Deku.." Uraraka broke the silence as she wispered my nickname.

"Don't call me that." I said in a sharp voice as I turned away from her. 

"I'm sorry Izuku, but I love Bakugou now. That was what I was going to tell you."

"So all of those months were for nothing?" 

"You know what? I don't know why I feel even a little bit bad for you. This is your fault! I know you've been lying to me, Bakugou told me-"

"BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO WORRY!" I interrupted her. "...Yes, m-maybe I should have told you the truth, but I had a hard time accepting it myself. Why couldn't you have trusted me?"

"What, so you can spend time with another girl?" Uraraka replied with a sour look on her face.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT-"

"You think I don't know that all that time away from school was so that you could go to america with someone else? Bakugou told me, at least he doesn't tell me lies."

"I WENT TO AMERICA FOR MY MOMS FUNERAL!" The room was silent again. (In my au, Deku's dad lives in america and is separated from Inko, but they are still on really good terms. Izuku has a half sister who also live in america and they are really close. Deku choose to stay at UA and finish school instead of moving to America.) 

"...What?"

Tears were once again streaming down my face. I'm such a weakling. 

"...My mom died a few months ago from a villain attack," I said in a flat voice. "I went to america to see my dad and half sister and go to my moms funeral." 

"Deku, that doesn't excuse you lying to me."

"...You cheated on me." 

"I- I didn't love you anymore."

"Well it's good to know that all it took for you to doubt me was my childhood bully's word. I'm sorry that it had to end like t-this Uraraka. I love you and I think I always will, but you love someone else so you should go to him." I said with a weak smile. "You deserve to be happy."

Uraraka's pov

I know that this is what I wanted, so then why did my heart feel so heavy? No, he deserved this. People don't lie to the people they love. You lied too... SHUT UP. 

I walked out of Deku's room without another glance. I never loved him anyways, he was just a place holder. I didn't have the energy to talk to anyone else right now, so I just went straight to my dorm room and fell right asleep. 

***

The next morning when I woke up and got ready for school, my mind was racing. Would people in class be talking about what had happened yesterday? Oh who gave a shit, I had Bakugou now and I didn't need anything else. We were happy and in love. Besides, who cares? As I walked to class though, I felt more eyes on me than usual and it made me uncomfortable. "Homewrecker" "Cheater" "Slut" these whispers followed me to class. These people really have nothing better to talk about? Oh well, I guess I'll just get a bit more attention that usual. 

Everyone seems super obsessed with me today. As they should be- my thinking was cut off as I arrived at class and noticed that Deku and Kiri were absent. Furthermore, Bakugou was avoiding my eye contact. I'll do something about that. "Hey babe," I walked up to him and rested my elbows on his desk. "Aww, is someone in a bad mood today?" 

The other people who were in class at the moment just stared at me. "Shut up pink cheeks, I'm fine. Leave me alone." 

"Okay okay whatever you say, but don't forget about our plans tonight."

"So what they say is true." I heard a voice behind me and silently rolled my eyes. Iida looked back at me with slight shock on his face. "You know Uraraka I actually thought you would never hurt a fly. I guess I was wrong there." 

"Iida, Deku was lying to me. To all of us. You shouldn't trust him, he's keeping secrets."

"The fact that his mom passed away? He told us all this morning. He asked for forgiveness and we gave it. Frankly, it's none of our business, and he had a good reason to hide it. Losing a family member can be really hard on someone. And the fact that he didn't tell you everything happening in his life doesn't excuse cheating."

"Problem children, sit down. Class is starting."

Thanks for reading! I've had a bit of trouble with the story line recently so I'm sorry if it doesn't make a ton of sense- I kind of changed my original plan a bit. I'm also having a hard time writing from Uraraka's perspective a lot so I think I'll change that to mostly Deku's pov in the next few chapters. I'm sorry, I think this is the worst chapter I've written, I was in a bit of a rush.
