Falling For Freckles

18. From Bad to Worse

It was well before six am and Katsuki was already up and out running in the cold morning air down the nearly empty sidewalks at the University.

He's been doing it for a couple weeks now, getting ready for one of the biggest games of the season taking place in a couple days against the Warriors rival team, the Renegades.

The blonde quarterback has been doing nothing but working out and practicing latley, the whole team pushed to its limits, but Katsuki always surpassed his. The coach was pushing him extra hard latley, not leaving him much time to think let alone do much anything else, by the time he was done with workouts and long grueling practices, he hardly had enough time to finish homework before passing out hard on either his or Izuku's bed. It was starting to make training camp look like a joke.

There was also another issue latley. With the constant training and practice and normal school work he was barely having any time for his little greenett who he knew was doing his best to hide his disappointment at not being able to spend anytime with the firey blonde. Katsuki always tried to at least make sure they slept in the same bed so he could hold his little shit while he incoherently mumbled a few things before sleep would take him out but before the greenett even woke most days Katsuki was already up and out the door.

He cringed to himself thinking about the lack of time he had for Izuku. He had actually even fallen asleep a couple nights ago while the greenett was taking to him, something that by the next day he could see wasn't sitting well in emerald eyes, not that he could blame him.

It was becoming irritating, frustrating and making him even more cranky and irritable then his heavy workload because it's not how he wanted it to be, he just wasn't sure there was much he could do about it right now.

The fiery blonde was tired, shorter fused than normal. The pressure the coach was adding and the need to always be the best and beat the Renegades was wearing on him, on top of trying and feeling like he was failing latley to make time for his little shit, it all had the blonde twisted up inside.

This had never been an issue in Katsuki's life because he never had anyone to worry about before, he was never in a relationship so this was new ground for the firey blonde who's lungs were burning in the cold morning air as his pushed forward on strong aching thighs. He decided suddenly to cut his run a little short as emerald eyes swirled in his mind, he ran to the dorm doors and right onto the elevator. He moved swiftly down the hall and into the greenett's room where Izuku was still curled up sleeping.

Katsuki smirked pulling the covers back after slipping his shoes off and climbing into bed slowly. He moved close to the the sleepy greenett putting cold hands on Izuku's warm skin making the greenett jump away with a shiver at the intrusive cold.

" Ahhhh! What the heck?! Kacchan?!",Izuku yelped with sleep still heavy in his voice.

Katsuki chuckled moving closer putting his cold face against the greenett's neck making him shiver again this time earning a whine.

" Kacchaaaaan, you're s-so cold", he shivered out as the blonde cuddled closer.

" I know that's why I came in here to curl up next to you, you're so fucking warm " , Katsuki said placing a kiss on Izuku's neck only making the goosebumps on his skin spread.

The greenett shivered but staied put letting the firey quarterback curl into his warmth.

He turned on his side running a hand through blonde spikes.

" You're sweaty, how can you be so sweaty and cold at the same time?" , he asked with a small groggy laugh.

Katsuki grinned moving messy forest green locks out of pretty emerald eyes.
