The Longing: Katsuki Bakugou

The Aftermath

Y/n's POV

Kirishima seems cool. His hair is super red and spiky. His quirk is pretty impressive too. I didn't mean to nerd out on him but I've always loved quirks. They're so unique and interesting. Izuku and I would always research different quirks while Katsuki sat on the bed reading manga. I'd look stuff up and Izuku would write everything down in note books. We even had a second on Katsuki-he didn't know that though.

I was terrified when I heard Izuku's voice. I though I was imagining things. But then I turned around and saw him.

"Y/n!" He called, eyes watering while walking towards me.

I stepped back. I didn't know how to react. While in the detention center I realized how much I had neglected his feelings throughout the whole thing. Watching his two best friends fight each other with quirks-especially considering we all thought he was quirkless. And then all the stress that got put on him to help Katsuki and I in separate ways. I know if I asked he'd say some bull shit like "I'm glad to help" or something with a smile on his face. But when I saw him walking toward me, all the shit I had piled on him came back to be. I figured he'd probably hate me. I hid my quirk from him selfishly while he struggled with not having one. Not to mention that Katsuki probably treated him like shit when I left. Katsuki was always jealous of Izuku's determination and ability to express himself so he always acted like he hated him. I was the mediator between the two.

Izuku started walking even faster. His eyes were watering and he wore his child like smile.

~Good to know his facial expression haven't changed.

I noticed he looked a lot taller. And a lot more fit. Same unruly broccoli colored hair, but he was no longer the skinny dweeb I once knew. After I saw the smile on his face I forgot all my fears. I thought maybe he didn't hate me. So I ran to meet him in a hug.

I asked him so many questions. I told him I was proud of him for getting into UA. I am. I do totally am. And by the way he sounded and responded I could tell he was still totally socially awkward and such a nerd. I got a good laugh out of sharing stories. Unfortunately my heart dropped when I heard what Katsuki had been through.

~Kidnapped? I can't believe villians thought he'd join them. And I remember that sludge villian.

Izuku told me I had nothing to worry about and that they had done fine without me. He also instantly tried to correct himself, obviously worried I'd take it the wrong way. I didn't though, and I told him that.

Midoriya's POV

Aisawa sensei and principal Nezu let us talk for a while. She had noticed my scars as We talked on the ground and immediately went off on me for being reckless with my quirk. I told y/n about school and all my classmates. Even Kirishima joined in. Just like I had predicted, the two had so much in common. Y/n always liked red riot so they talked about that a lot. I told her I'd introduce her to all might too.

~And I'll ask if I can tell her about one for all. There's no reason not to right?

While her and Kirishima were talking, Mr Aisawa called me over. As I stood up y/n instantly reacted and grabbed my arm.

"Where are you going?" She asked, startled.

"Just to talk to Mr Aisawa. I'll be right back I promise." I smiled at her.

~Of course she'd panic about me leaving. It's been so long.

It took her a second but she eventually let go and went back to her convo with Kirishima. As I walked to where my teacher was standing I couldn't help but think about the amount of miscommunication that caused this entire situation. And how it's still effecting it.
