⭐FOOTBALL AU 🏈🏈🏈 (bakudeku)⭐

As discussed. This might be like a bunch of little snippets of different ideas I had for a story w this AU.

AU: Izuku plays football. Katsuki is ball boy (bc he is obsessed).

-----

The first time Katsuki met Izuku was at the first football game of freshman year.

He and his friends were sitting in the first row of the student section being loud and obnoxious, as they were directed to be as part of the student section.

A foul ball was thrown, but Izuku went after it, trying to intercept it before it left the bounds of the field, but missing by just centimeters and crashing into the opposite team's sideline members and coaches instead.

The ball was still flying though.

Flying right into Katsuki's hands.

"Sorry, sorry!" Izuku was saying as he scrambled to stand, people were making sure he was okay, trying to get him to take it slow, but he popped right back up. He raised his hands and clapped, staring at Katsuki, "toss it to me!"

Katsuki almost forgot how to move his body.

Underneath the helmet was a face full of freckles, a toothy smile, and a face so happy to just be playing the game he loved so much. His jawline was soft, but still defined, and he was strong. His green eyes were bright and full of joy.

He blinked and Izuku was still waiting with the same gorgeous smile. He tossed the ball easily to Izuku and received a thanks in return.

Katsuki mentally cursed because his friends totally caught him drooling over the boy in front of him. He tried to joke it off, but he was watching one person and one person only for the rest of the game.

-------

Katsuki signed up to be a ball boy.

He hadn't seen Izuku anywhere since the game. He didn't know where they practiced. He didn't know Izuku's major. He only knew they were in the same year because of the introductions for the starting line up on the score board.

It was so so attractive that Izuku was a freshman and on starting lineup. That's not easy to do.

Katsuki had to admit that he'd fallen hard for a boy he'd never actually talked to. That he was risking his time and effort for something that was more than likely not going to work.

I mean, hell, was Izuku even gay?

When Katsuki went to his first game with the job, he was feeling down at best. Quite discouraged.

But then, when all the players were running out, (and of course Katsuki was already staring at Izuku) Izuku saw him and waved.

Katsuki smiled instinctively. Izuku remembered him. That was enough to keep him in a good mood for the rest of the game.

After the game, Katsuki was helping collect the sidelines supplies and take down banners from the student section when he felt a tap on his shoulder.

"What-" he began, his tone harsh as he turned around from reaching up to take a banner down, but his eyes widened when he saw Izuku in a plain outfit, still sweaty standing there.

"Hey! Need some help?" Izuku asked.

Katsuki nearly forgot his words again, "sure." He responded calmly.

They reached up together and took down the large plastic banner, folding it together. They began to talk.

"What's your name?" Izuku asked as they moved in together to fold the banner in half, similar to how you would fold a blanket or sheet.
