From Rivals to Romance

Conflicting Interests

Izuku sent a message out to his fans along with a picture of his legs barely visible underneath the bubbles from the hot tube. "I know it looked rough, but I loved every second of it. Dynamite made my first time better than I could have ever dreamed of".

Comments poured in asking if they would do another colab, if they were dating or just fuck buddies. Izuku didn't know how to answer that. They hadn't discussed their relationship at all. He wasn't sure what he wanted. One thing for sure is that his body craves the touch and kisses from Kacchan, but lust does not a relationship make.

"Your live stream was a major success, Midoriya" Mina said sinking into the hot water next to her friend. "I've never seen those numbers before. For you or Dynamite".

"Did you watch, you perv?" Izuku teased pushing Mina's shoulder a bit.

"I didn't want to, but I did. Only for a couple minutes!" she added quickly.

"Yeah right".

"My god, he's a beast! You should see your chest!".

"I know right?" Izuku smiled dreamily. "My ass hurts, but Mina, it felt amazing. He took compete control of me. I've never felt so sexy in my life".

Izuku and Katsuki spent the next couple days together. They even did another colab, but this time Katsuki took him tenderly. It was slow and erotic. Most of the comments were saying that the two were definitely an item.

Izuku stayed in the shower too long thinking about how he feels about Kacchan. He hung his head knowing full well that he was falling for the spikey haired blonde. Katsuki knew how to rile him up, challenge him then calm his nerves. Yep, he was definitely falling hard.

Midoriya was setting up for a solo live stream when he found himself uninterested in doing so. If felt different now. He picked up his phone and made a call to President Nezu. "Mr. Nezu, it's Midoriya. Can you meet me for a drink soon? I need to speak with you".

"Of course, Midoriya. Let's meet at the bar in 5 minutes. I have another meeting in a half hour. Is that enough time?".

"Yes, that's fine". Midoriya changed quickly. There were butterflies fluttering around in his belly, but if anyone could advise him it's Nezu. Izuku glanced down at his watch hoping that Katsuki wouldn't be coming back soon. He had gone scuba diving with some company members and was expected anytime now.

The president and Izuku sat down at a small table in the hotel bar. It wasn't exactly private, but good enough. The bar doesn't have that many patrons at this hour.

"What did you need to see me about, Midoriya? Is this about your show?".

Izuku fidgeted in his seat chewing on his lower lip. "It is. Umm. If I were to quit streaming, is there a possibility for a full time position at Nezu Entertainment?".

Nezu's eyes lit up. "Of course my dear boy! I've been wanting you full time for a while now. All the accounts you handle are doing exceptionally well. What brought this about? Are fans giving you a hard time? Is someone bothering you?". Some streamers have been known to have stalkers. Crazed fans that have convinced themselves that they are in love with the person on screen.

"No. Nothing like that" his face blushed furiously. "I fell hard for another streamer and getting naked for strangers doesn't seem right anymore. I want him to be the only one who gets to see me like that".

Nezu's smile widened at that. "That's wonderful news, Son! I'm so glad you found someone you love enough to give up streaming. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but my company could really use your help with marketing". Nezu looked at Midoriya hard "But what about this streamer? Does he want to quit too?".

"No! We haven't even come close to talking about this. I just wanted to ask if there is the possibility of a job if I want to stop streaming".

"In a heartbeat, Midoriya" Nezu said tapping the greenette's hand affectionately. "You will have a comfortable salary and full benefits".

"Thank you, Sir. I have a lot to think about".

What Midoriya didn't know, is that Katsuki heard the entire conversation. He was reeling from the news that not only is Midoriya falling for him, but he's thinking about quitting his show. Too many thoughts were swimming around his head. He felt happy, worried, guilty, apprehensive, but the biggest was uncertain. He wasn't sure how he felt about Midoriya. Sure he liked him, but he couldn't give up his show for him. What if Izuku wanted him too? "It's too soon for this!" he screamed in his head. "Why can't we just have fun?".

Bakugo needed some time to think. He found himself in his room pacing back and forth. His phone dinged with a message from Midoriya wanting to know if he wanted to meet for dinner. He sent out a quick response "I'm not sure. I might stream tonight. You should have a good time with Mina. I'm sure I'll see you soon". Katsuki felt like a coward. He knew he should just talk to Izuku, but he wasn't sure what to say.

Izuku looked at his phone frowning hard. "What the fuck?! Is he blowing me off?!". Izuku stomped over to his room and banged on the door. "Open up you son of a bitch!".

Katsuki flinched knowing what kind of hell beast was waiting for him on the other side of that door. "Fine, if he wants to talk we'll talk" he puffed up his chest ready for battle. He swung open the door and was almost knocked over by an angry Chihuahua pushing his way in to the room.

"What the fuck is this about?!" Izuku snarled showing Bakugo the message on his phone. "You blowing me off? If you are, I deserve to know why!".

"You want to know why?" Bakugo started. Midoriya nodded his head waving his hands in the come on motion. "I overheard your fucking conversation with Nezu. I can't believe you want to stop streaming for a guy you just met".

"You heard?" Izuku stepped back, his face flushing red. "So what if I do?!" he yelled back at those ruby eyes that were looking at him like he is crazy. "I like you, ok! I like you and I want to be with you. I thought we felt the same way about each other?!".

"Don't put this on me! This is your career were talking about! You have thousands of fans, Deku. I don't want you to be with me, we break up and now you don't have a show, plus you'll be stuck in a job that you didn't even want!".

"Do you like me!?" Izuku asked raising his voice. "That's the only question I want you to answer!".

"I just think it's too soon to be talking about this. I'm no good at relationships, Izuku. I'll fuck it up. I'm already doing that now".

"So is that a no? You don't like me back?" Izuki's eyes started to water.

"I'm no good in the long run, Izuku".

Izuku laughed sadly "Ok then. Look, I need some time, please don't contact me".

Midoriya spent the next evening licking his wounds and getting drunk with Mina. He did his best to avoid Bakugo, but they did run in to each other a couple of times. The blonde tried to talk to him, but Izuku wasn't interested in fake ass apologies.

The last night, Izuku found himself slightly inebriated in front of the bar. It was time for Karaoke and he knew the perfect song. Ruin my Life by Zara Larsson.

"I miss you pushing me close to the edge. I miss you. I wish I knew what I had when I left. I miss you. You set fire to my world, couldn't handle the heat. Now I'm sleeping alone and I'm starting to freeze. Baby come bring me hell, let it rain over me. Baby, come back to me. I want you to ruin my life, you to ruin my life, you to ruin my life. Yeah, I want you to fuck up my nights, yeah fuck up my nights, yeah, all of my nights, yeah I want you to bring it all on if you make it all wrong, then I'll make it all right. Yeah, I want you to ruin my life, you ruin my life, you ruin my life".

The crowd cheered, but Izuku only had his teary eyes on crimson that were just as watery. Katsuki didn't care that everybody was watching. He walked up to the stage, picked Izuku up in his strong arms. "I'm gonna for sure ruin your life, Baby Boy. If you want to roll the dice, I'm game. I've missed you so fucking much". 

Izuku sobbed nodding his head "Kacchan, come back to me".
