Reset and Rewind

Chapter 10 - The ideal Internship

Izuku didn't know how to feel about the award ceremony. Iida had just been called away, which was a painful reminder of the fact the Hero Killer had attacked someone he cared about. Not that he was supposed to be on the podium this time around, but it still didn't sit well with Izuku. That and the fact Katsuki was standing next to him, looking as smug as ever for embarrassing him in front of the whole world, while Kirishima and Kaminari shared third place. All Might was proud of him, at least, so that was something.

"Congrats on the win, Deku-kun," Ochako smiled. "I bet the internship requests will be lining up this time!"

Right, the internships. Izuku hadn't received any requests the first time around because he was reckless and broke his hand on live television. All Might had to call in a favor with his old mentor for him. But now... Now he had better control, now he actually won the sportsfestival. Ochako was right, there was no way he wouldn't get requests with how well he did. Shoto would probably get less, seeing as the sportsfest made him look like he wasn't capable of working with others and acted rashly and without thinking properly. It was like they were living in an opposite reality.

"Hey, can we talk? About what you said during our fight?" Kacchan asked, pulling him away from the small celebration party their class had for doing well in the festival. Izuku's face flushed again, reminded of how he just screamed he loved Kacchan out of nowhere. He hadn't meant to, of course, but like he said before, fighting shut his brain off and allowed his true feelings to surface. Katsuki led them to a more private area, but they could still hear the music of the party going like muted background noise, too warped and quiet to understand.

"W-what I said- I didn't-" Izuku stammered nervously, only to be interrupted by his boyfriend.

"Hey, calm down," Katsuki sighed. "You... You didn't give me the chance to say it back to you."

That wasn't true. Kacchan did have the chance to, he just decided that teasing him was way more fun at that moment. Still, he leaned in, placing his head on Izuku's shoulder as he gathered the courage to speak again.

"I love you, Izuku."
