summary | bakugo and deku used to e-date in middle school, unaware of their true identities. they met on reddit and their relationship grew. now in UA, izuku brings up how he used to date someone in middle school while playing truth or dare with his class..

"hey, everyone's here! we have about an hour before curfew. let's play a game!" mina says, catching class 1-A's attention.

"i don't see a problem with that. we all ate supper, right?" iida asks and gets a couple of nods and 'yes' from the class.

whilst smiling, mina says, "alrighty, then! let's play.. truth or dare, a classic.. let's get in a circle!" obeying her, the class sits in a circle on the floor and couches.

"yeah, whatever." bakugo says while walking to his dorm.

"whoa, kacchan.. you're backing away from a challenge? not very 'number 1' if you ask me.." denki pressures katsuki, but it worked as he stops in his tracks and turns around.

"hah?! who said that? i'd never." the angry blonde says, sitting down "and don't call me that, sparky."

"okay! who starts? i say.." mina says, scanning the circle they formed. "midoriya! start, truth or dare?"

"what? me.. um.. truth?" deku says, not trusting what mina will make him do if he picked dare.

"okay.. um, what is something you've never told anyone?" mina asks, knowing the green haired boy will be truthful.

midoriya cheeks flush from embarrassment, "haha.. um.. so, in middle school.." katsuki's heart dropped. "i dated someone.. online. it was a guy. his name was dynamite explosion something.. i don't quite remember.." midoriya says, thinking. "we met on a reddit thread.. it was r/allmight, i think." he paused. "i showed my face to him a couple months after we started dating but after that, he blocked me."

silence went throughout the room. before someone broke it, "explosion dynamite.. that sounds like.. bakugo? no, but he wouldn't be all lovey dovey and have a boyfriend, huh?" kirishima adds.

"you're right, explosion dynamite does sound a lot like a name kacchan would pick." denki says.

"..what the hell are you saying?!" katsuki yells.

"wait.. kacchan, you did suddenly stop.. 'talking' to me, i would say.. for about a week after that?" midoriya notices, not trying to expose middle school bakugo.

"..dammit, all of you!" katsuki yelled before getting up and storming off to his dorm.

"kacchan.. wait!.." deku pleads, getting up but sitting back down shortly after he realizes he should let bakugo cool off.

"don't sweat it, deku! he'll be fine.." uraraka comforts midoriya.

an alarm goes off, breaking the tension in the room. "guys! it's time to go to your dorms. you have 30 minutes to get ready to sleep!" tenya demands.

the circle breaks up, a concerned midoriya walking to the bathroom and getting ready for his slumber. 'i wonder who he really was, though.' going through deku's mind the whole time until he couldn't take it anymore and rushed to bakugo's room.

"kacchan?" izuku knocked on the blonde's door.

"the hell you want, deku?!" bakugo yelled from inside his dorm.

"..please, let me in."

shuffling was heard from inside the dorm and suddenly the door opened and izuku was pulled into bakugo's room.

"wha- kacchan?!"

"deku." katsuki started.

"kacchan?"

"i know you've probably figured this out by now, but i was.." he paused. "ugh, i was that  explosion dynamite guy, the one you dated online." he confessed, avoiding eye-contact.

"but.. why?" izuku asked, heartbroken because that online boyfriend he had was his only friend during his middle school years. "why did you stop.. talking to me?"

"because." he sighed, "because i hated you. i still hate you. but i dont, i love you.. i'm jealous of you. i always was and when i realized the same person i envied for all of my life was my boyfriend, i couldn't help but hate you more." he rambled, but izuku listened. "i hate you. so much.. but i love you and i just.. i don't know how to explain.."

izuku pulled katsuki into an embrace, a much needed one. "..it." katsuki finished, giving izuku a hug back, digging his head into the crevice of deku's neck, soft sobs coming out of the tense blonde.

"i'm sorry, izuku."
