Bakugo pov: 

"Kacchan, I..." Deku started to say. He was struggling a lot to get his words out. I knew him that well to know that. I opened my mouth to make fun of him but then realised that wasn't a good idea. Come on nerd. Just tell me. 

"It's a lot to take in. I know. It is for me too. To go from what we are now... rivals, enemies to... whatever the hell they are." I said. What the hell was I saying? It was like I didn't have control of what I was saying. It just slipped out. At least I didn't say that word or anything to do with it. 

Deku nodded shyly. That was how he felt as well... he didn't... oh. That was a pretty sad thought that he didn't like me back, but at least I don't have to worry about confessing to him, because I know for a fact that he doesn't like me. 

"Kids though... I can't stop freaking out about that..." I heard him mumble. I thought for a while and came up with a theory.

"Maybe they're adopted." I concluded. Deku looked at me at first in utter bewilderment but then his facial features softened as he considered my idea. I could practically hear his brain cogs working. 

"I don't think they are adopted, Kacchan. They both look like a blend of me and you. That wouldn't be likely if they were adopted. But if they aren't adopted that means they've either been created in a lab or they're biological children. We both know it's not anatomically possible for 2 guys to have a child. But the idea of them being created in a lab is just absurd..." Deku said very quickly. It hurt my ears trying to listen to him. 

"Deku. Shut up. I can't make out your mumbling." I said, pressing my finger to his lips. His eyes widened. That's when my heart skipped a beat. He just looked so... innocent, pure and lovely. His eyes were gorgeous up close. Bright green and permanently glossy, like he was about to start crying. 

"Kacchan..?" he whispered submissively. 

I didn't respond for an entire minute. I was just staring at him and he seemed to be staring back. His eyes were relaxed now and dazed. I spent that minute looking him up and down slowly. His trademark green fluffy hair and eyes, which were the exact same shade made me smile slightly. He had changed from the skinny, scrawny nerd I had known I had known my entire childhood. He was actually quite... ugh. I didn't want to admit it but he really had had a glow up since receiving All Might's quirk. That day when he defeated the Level 0 monster that no one really bothers with was the day I fell in love with him. There were feelings before, that I questioned and doubted, but that was the day I was sure I was gay, and in love with him. And I regretted it, and wanted to get over it but I just couldn't do that. The worst thing was when he dated pink cheeks in second year. That broke my heart. I genuinely wanted to die through those months. Then, those feelings went away in roughly 5 minutes one day. The day he broke up with her. I was there when he broke up with her. I mean, I could see it coming. He looked really unhappy for a while before he got the courage to break her heart. I remember it like it was yesterday...

Flashback:

I pulled my science textbook out of my locker when I heard a very recognisable voice. One that belonged to Izuku Midoriya, who I had been calling 'Deku' since early childhood. 

"Uraraka-san, there's no point in arguing. I'm done with this. I've simply lost feelings for you, there's no other way of putting it." I heard him say. I smiled to myself, feeling more confident than what I had felt in months. I turned around, shoving my book in my bag and seeing Deku walk round the corner with his girlfriend. Except, they weren't going to stay lovers for long. 

"Don't interfere, Katsuki. Let them deal with it themselves." I told myself, trying unsuccessfully to ignore my obsessive beating heart.  

"But Deku-kun-" she tried to say. 

"No. No buts. We're over, I'm breaking up with you. But I don't want to end our friendship." He carried on. Once he had finished, she didn't say anything. She had finally got the f*cking message. 

"Alright. Okay. That's fine. Good luck finding someone else." She said, a sad smile. She turned and walked in the opposite direction. Deku was still walking towards me. 

"Kacchan, what are you looking at?" He said, stopping at his locker. 

"Well done, Deku. You finally did it." I said, walking up to him. 

He slammed the door shut, turned the key and removed it. He then glared at me with such a look that if he had been looking at me like that a week ago, I would've ran for my f*cking life. 

"It's none of your business who I date, Kacchan. Instead of watching me, why don't you try and get a girlfriend of your own?" he said. I smirked, watching him walk off. That's when I decided to correct him. 

"I'm gay." 

He turned around and looked at me in surprise, but then smiled in support. "I thought so. Well, a boyfriend then." He said, and turned back around. 

"Wait, Deku!" I said, walking to him and placing a hand on his shoulder. 

"What now, Kacchan?" he replied, turning back around. He was blushing slightly. I mean, I would; we were so close.

"Don't tell anyone. I'm not out to anyone. I don't want them knowing yet." 

He nodded. "Just so we're even, I think I'm bi." He whispered. "Don't tell other people either."

I nodded. "Our secret, yeah?" I said, smiling at the cute male in front of me. 

"Mhm." He said. There was a long pause. "Can I train with you later?"

"Course you can, Deku." I said. He left the warmth of my hand, probably scared I'd blow him up and hurried off in the opposite direction. 

End of flashback


"You are still bi, right?" I asked, taking my hand that was silencing him onto his hand. 

"Y-yeah..." He confirmed, blushing when my hand grasped his. 

"Good. Then you shouldn't mind too much when I do this-" 

I quickly breathed an extremely quick breath and moved closer to him. I had one hand holding his and my other around his waist. I then swiftly kissed him. I didn't have much experience. The only people I had kissed were a few girls in middle school, when I thought I was straight. Ha, what a time that was. But that hadn't set my heart racing. Not like now. Deku probably had more experience than me, given that he had actually dated someone before, even if it was only pink cheeks. 

He stayed sweet and merciful for a short while. He must have thought I was going to give him a quick peck. Right, sure. By the time he pulled away, he was completely at my mercy. 

"Kacchan-"

Word count: 1206 words. 

A/N: blep. 

I normally write some good stuff in this section but I simply cannot think of anything. Next chapter will be more cuddling. This might seem unimportant but f*cking read it for god's sake. I think I will throw in the plot twist in Chapter 8, then have the objective of the book be to resolve the problem that arises in Chapter 8. 

Bye-bye!
