ShigaDeku Come Back To Me

I Missed You

Izuku

Nothing could have prepared me for this. I didn't know what to say or how to act right now. Seeing him again was something I thought would never happen. It had been years since we last saw each other. Surely he had forgotten all about me right?

When I woke up this morning I expected today to drag on with nothing eventful happening. I expected to be yelled at by my mom as soon as I arrived home. The possibility of Tenko popping backup was never a possibility.

He looked different now, his hair was now white inside of a pale blue and looked longer. His red eyes still shined beautifully in the light but his face looked a lot more mature. It was obvious he had learned a lot during our time apart.

I couldn't help but feel the need to reach my hand out to him. I wanted him to take me into his arms and hold me again. I wanted to hear his heartbeat ring in my ear so I would know this was actually real life and not some dream.

"Tenko". I whispered. "I didn't realize you worked here zuzu". He smiled.

zuzu. He still remembers the nickname he gave me

"Izuku you ok"? Uraraka asked snapping me out of it. I turned to her and smiled. "Yeah, everythings ok. He's an old friend". "Oh alright then". She walked off and went greet another customer.

"I've been working here for a while now". I said giving him my full attention again. "I see. The uniform looks cute on you". I could feel the heat rushing to my cheeks and did my best not to blush.

"T thank you". "Your welcome Izu". I forced myself to turn around and start on his order. It was a miracle I even remembered it after he said my second nickname. "So how long have you been back in town"? "Just got back a few days ago. I have a little bit of time off so I thought I'd go explore my old hometown for a bit".

"Oh, I see". "Mhm". "Nothing much has changed since you left". "I wouldn't say that, there are a few things I've found myself interested in". "Really? Like what"? "Nope, I'd rather it stay a mystery for now".

"Alright". I made my way back to him and handed him his order. "That'll be eighty-fifty ". He handed me a hundred. "Keep the change bunny. Hopefully I'll see you around". He winked at me before leaving.

Did that seriously just happen?

My heart was still pounding in my chest. After he left all I could do was think about him. I wanted to talk to him more and regretted the fact that I didn't ask for his number. The whole time he was there I felt anxious. I didn't know how long our encounter would last but didn't know how to prolong our conversation in that moment.

All I could do was try to not stutter and embarrass myself.  I missed him. I missed him so much and now I'm scared I'll never be able to tell him that.

"Izuku"! My mother yelled as she came in and stormed her way over towards me. I was in a somewhat good mood after seeing Tenko but like always my mother had to ruin it. I said nothing as she stood in front of me and slapped me hard across the face.

"Exactly how dumb are you"!? "I don't know what you're referring to". I said looking down. "You and Katsuki you dumb piece of shit or did you forget about the breakup you need to fix"!?

"There's nothing I can do to fix it. He wants Shoto, not me. It wouldn't be right for me to continue to chase after him". She hit me harder. "I don't give a dam what he wants! The two of you agreed to this marriage and you're going to go through with it"!

"I've hurt him enough as it is already. All I want is for him to be happy. That's all I've ever wanted". "How many times do I have to tell you it doesn't matter what you want! I'm the only one that knows what's best for you"!

"Dad wouldn't be ok with what you're doing". I whispered. "How the fuck would you know!? Your father died when you were two months old! You know nothing about him and never will"! It took everything I had not to cry in front of her.

She knows how badly I want to know about my father but hasn't given me so much as a name for him. I know he's dead. I just want to know the kind of man he was.

"Don't you dare start to cry! If your father was here he wouldn't want a crybaby as a son! He'd also be disappointed in the fact you're not taking care of me like you should be. He would disown you like I should've did. If it wasn't for me you'd be living on the street"!

All I could do was sit on my knees with my head down as she glared daggers at me. "I'm sorry mother. I'll do better". The tears I was holding back fell one after the other.

Tenko

I was extremely happy with the way things turned out today. I was able to find Izuku faster than I expected to and was actually able to talk with him. It wasn't long but I intended to change that. If things went my way Izuku and I would be back in each other's arms very soon.

That all depends on rather or not he's still in love with me

I knew I wasn't supposed to but considering everything that happens I knew he would want to know about it as soon as possible. I took out my phone and called him as I ate my muffin.

Hisashi: If your calling to ask about work don't bother.

Tenko: I'm not. At least not this time.

Hisashi: Then what do I owe the honor?

Tenko: I have good news for you. News you've waited a long time to hear

Hisashi: Which is

Tenko; I saw Izuku earlier today. He's still in town.

Hisashi: Tenko

He whispered. I didn't have to see his face to know that he was doing his best not to cry with me on the phone

Tenko: I promise I'll do my best to reunite you with your son. You have my word
