"I-I uh- I was wondering if... maybe you and me could-"
And the sound of a phone ringing stopped the blond from saying anything else.
"Ah- oh, one second, Kacchan." Izumi said, pulling out her phone that was ringing. Katsuki watched as she looked at the Caller ID and she answered.
"Hello?" "
Hey, Izumi-chan! It's Uraraka!" Izumi hadn't heard the brunette's voice in a while.
"Uraraka, hey. What's the call about?"
"Hey listen, me and the girls from our high school class heard that you got dispatched to the Metropolitan Station."
"Yeah, I started working yesterday."
"So~ we wanna congratulate you for getting the job and thought we should all meet together for dinner tonight! You in?"
"Ah- sure, I'm free tonight!"
Well just hearing that bummed the blond right away, because he was planning on asking to spend the evening with her. So much for that.
"Great! I'll text you the address, we'll see you in a little bit!"
"Yeah, see you in a little bit!" Izumi said with enthusiasm.
"So..." Izumi looked up at the blond as he was rubbing the back of his neck.
"Guess you're busy tonight, huh?"
"Yeah, that was just one of my old classmates from U.A., she's really nice. Oh yeah, you were gonna ask me something, weren't you?" she asked.
'Well I can't ask her now that she's got plans, damnit.' he thought.
"I just... Do you need me to walk you home?" he asked nervously.
"O-Oh sure, that's really nice of you, Kacchan!" she said with that same sweet smile.
'I honestly wanted to spend a little more time with Kacchan, but I haven't seen the girls from my old class since... since Aoyama was arrested in my past life. Man, things have drastically changed this time.' she thought.
'This hurts a lot more than I thought it would.' he thought.
After what felt like a far too short of a walk, the greenette and blond arrived at the front of the greenette's apartment complex.
"Thanks for walking me home, Kacchan, I appreciate it."
"Yeah... sure thing..." he muttered.
'Though it'll be the weekend tomorrow, I'm sure I can find a way to ask Kacchan if we could try to spend some time together.' Izumi thought.
"Well, I'll see you later, Kacchan." Izumi said as she was about to head towards her apartment.
"H-Hey Deku." Katsuki quickly reached and grabbed her hand before she walked away from him.
"Huh? Yeah, Kacchan?"
"Just..." he paused, not sure if he should really say something sweet or not.
"Just... be careful going back home later." he murmured.
"Ah- Hmph, of course I'll be careful, Kacchan. I'm not a helpless little girl anymore."
'Right, Deku isn't the same as the past life.' he thought as released her hand.
"See you later, Kacchan." "Right..."
