Heartbreaking Secrets~

Worth The Chance

Ever since the news of Midoriya's disappearance Bakugou seemed off. Everyone could agree that his act completely changed.

What surprised everyone was the fact that the person he did a 180 for.. was none other than Deku.

Anytime Mr. Aizawa was free Bakugou would pull him off to the side and ask if they had any updates. The feeling of hope lost when each time he asked he was met with the same answer, "unfortunately no new information on his disappearance."

Bakugou had even offered to help go search for him, which was declined. He kept being told that he was a hero in training and all he could do was sit and wait, but he had already been doing that.

He bitched out anyone who told him to calm down and let the pros handle it. Hell he had been letting them handle it and so far nothing had happened.

Bakugou was a ticking time bomb. As the day got later it did nothing, but worry him more. He was kept on edge until the door opened and he saw Deku. It was slow motion for him.

He never wanted to see the nerd's face that badly before.

Just taking in his appearance and seeing that he was safe set him off though. They waited and waited, worrying that he was hurt, but there he was, nervously smiling at them like he was sorry. Fuck his sorry. Where was he all that time?

He was pissed. Beyond pissed.

He slapped him. He knew what he did after he had done it. He needed to get to his dorm and calm down before he broke something.

So that's what he was currently focusing on, making his way to his dorm. He clenched the hand that he smacked Izuku with to his chest.

Down the hall Kirishima could hear the elevator doors opening, it opened with its nostalgic dinging. His head shot up, as his eyes glanced over. He watched as Bakugou walk out.

Kirishima yawned, feeling the day go to waste. He sank down to the floor, taking a seat from standing. He had been outside of Denki's dorm, doing everything he could think of to lure the blonde out that whole day.

"Bakugou?" Kirishima tried reaching forward when he saw the look of full sorrow written on his friend's face. "What's going on? Are you okay?" He asked.

"Don't fucking touch me!" Bakugou stammered. Kirishima watched as Bakugou took off.

"Bakugou!" Kirishima shouted, watching as he slammed the door behind him.

Kirishima thought about running to Bakugou's dorm and trying to talk to him, but he knew if anything Bakugou was gonna wanna be alone.

Denki laid out on his bed, staring straight ahead out of the balcony doors. He didn't know what else to do, he felt sick to the stomach at everything.

He turned over staring at the self glued stars on the ceiling as he let his thoughts run.

His boyfriend was missing.

What was he supposed to do?

He kept replaying their actions of the other day, snuggling closer together and kissing. He wished everything could just go back in time. Maybe he could have stopped Izuku from even leaving his sight.

He sighed, what was he thinking? It's not like he could have actually prevented it.

He closed his eyes, as he rolled back over onto his side, glaring out of the balcony. His eyes fluttered shut, but soon opened again once his stomach rumbled. He cursed at himself for locking himself up in his room.

As he sat up he heard arguing outside of his dorm. He knew Kirishima was on the other side, Kirishima hadn't left the door since earlier that evening.

Denki shuffled closer, slowly placing his ear on the door waiting for them to continue.

"Bakugou!" Kirishima shouted. Denki waited for a response, but jumped back when he heard a loud slam.

"Yeah that's Bakugou", Denki grumbled as he made his way back to his bed. He held himself back from tearing up, part of him wished he heard Izuku's voice.

Kirishima tilted his head back against the door. He could feel himself falling asleep.

The elevator dinged once again and Kirishima slowly looked over. His eyes flew wide open when he saw Deku.

He couldn't think of anything to say, he felt speechless, "H-holy crap dude I don't even know what to say!" Kirishima stuttered out. "What the hell happened to you?" Kirishima asked as he ran up towards the greenette, pulling him into a hug. His energy all of a sudden magically regained.

Izuku was unbothered by the random hug, as he accepted it, still walking towards Kaminari's dorm.

"It's a long story." He replied, "but I'm okay and I'm back, right? That's what matters!" Izuku asked him in a hurry.

"Yeah, totally! I'm glad you are back, you scared all of us dude!" Kirishima was still surprised.

Midoriya is back? He was finally back. He was safe and unharmed, but that still didn't help him from worrying. Where had he been? He had a lot of explaining to do.

"I'll tell you about it later, but right now can you tell me how Kaminari is?" He asked, getting straight to the point. Kirishima nodded, happy to help.

"I've been worried sick about him, he has been in his room all day except for earlier when Nezu called for a meeting. He just ran off and stayed locked in his room. He has been refusing to eat and to talk." Kirishima told him, "I think it's because of you. You kinda disappeared for the whole day.."

"I know, I know, but I'm here now and I just wanna apologize to him. I know I messed up." Izuku responded, "Can you give me a second alone with him?" Kirishima nodded, he'd give him some time to try and talk him out. For now though Kirishima was gonna take a few steps back, he'd been trying for a while. It was worth giving someone else a chance.

As he went his way Izuku knocked on the door.

"Kaminari….?" Izuku called out. "It's me, Izuku. I'm back. I'm sorry for leaving the way I did, I know I scared you. Please let me in. I'll explain everything? Promise?" Izuku mumbled, he hoped Kaminari was awake and could hear him.
