2. Surprise Home Coming 💚

" A broken heart is the worst. It's like having broken ribs, no body can see it but the pain is unbearable every time you breathe" ~ unknown

When Katsuki had shown up at the door of his childhood home late one night without a word or a warning his mother , Mitsuki was both surprised and not surprised.

When her brat had walked in looking exhausted and troubled she had a feeling it had to do with a green eyed boy she had watched grow up only a few doors down, one who had spent many hours in her home as a child, one who had chased after her son with pride and admiration, one who she had always hoped would end up with her hard to handle, hard headed boy who she knew had always been too stubborn and scared to actually accept the feelings she knew he held for Izuku.

Izuku's mother Inko and Mitsuki were bestfriends and extremely close. As soon as Inko had told her of the greenett seeing Todoroki, they both had a feeling that once Katsuki caught wind of it he might just head home. They actually were both praying to any god out there that he would because both mothers couldn't imagine their sons with anyone but each other, there was just too much there for it to be any other way, there had always been so much there.

Her son was now planted on the sofa with a cup of green tea that had always been his favorite. She headed back into the livingroom sitting beside her tired kid looking at him with concern.

" Good to see ya brat, I'm happy you found your way home again"

He gave a nod actually feeling bad that he hadn't been back home in so long. His parents had come out to see him at least once or twice a year but he hadn't managed to be able to get around his twisted feelings to do the same.

" Yeah, sorry about just showing the fuck up Hag. I'm sure I was the last person you expected to show up at the door at fucking ten o'clock at night without a heads up", he said giving her a tired smirk.

She smiled at him. Little did he know she wasn't that surprised.

" This is home Katsuki, it doesn't matter when you show up, it's always home and you're always welcome. Now let's get down to the point here though, theres gotta be a reason you showed up looking beat as shit on a Tuesday night without a word, so tell your old lady what the hell is going on brat"

Katsuki scoffed lightly at his mother as he looked down into his cup not sure of what to even tell her. They had a decent relationship but he still wasn't sure what the fuck to say, his mind was still in a hazy fog he had made the decision to come home so fast he was still trying to process his own damn feelings and fuck he was tired, he has yet to sleep from being up all night on patrol the night before.

He shrugged his firey gaze still downcast.

" I don't know. I got some shit to try and sort out, figure out, try and fix or fucking something, hell I don't even know really"

She stared at her son taking in his face as he spoke. Katsuki was hurting that much was clear to her.

" This have anything to do with Izuku?"

The name looked like it visibly stung the blonde and that's probably because it fucking did.

He was quite for a few minutes considering his answer.

" I guess so. Theres some shit I need to say to him if I can figure out how, and if he'll even fucking listen to me. I mean hell I haven't talked to him since the day I left and ... fuck even then I left him on the front porch of his house in god damn tears. I know I can't just walk back into his life and dump a bunch of shit on him all at once that I should have said fucking years ago. I know it's gonna take time and patience and you know better than anyone that I'm fucked when it comes to patience" , he said finally meeting his mother's eye.
