Friends (KatsuDeku)

I have to save you, Kacchan.

5.

"Are you okay, Deku-kun?" Uraraka asked Deku during break, with a worried expression.

I must look like a mess, Izuku thought.

"I'm okay, Uraraka-san!" Izuku tried to sound cheerful, anything to stop others to ask him if he was okay. Since he was not. "I just feel a little bad today."

"Oh!" Uraraka looked a little relieved. "You can go to the nurse, you know. Ill tell Iida-kun."

"I think I'll take you're advice." Izuku stood up from his desk and waved her a goodbye as he left the room.

"He must have been feeling that unwell to the point he'll skip class. I'm worried." Uraraka turned to face Deku's childhood friend. "Don't you think so, Bakugou-kun?"

"Don't care. Stop talking to me Roundface." Katsuki retorted. But his eyes followed Deku's slouched figure.

Katsuki suddenly stood up from his desk with a bang.

"Roundface, tell EngineBoy that I feel sick so I'm going to the nurse." Katsuki then took off with an irritated look on his face.

Everyone in class knows it's a lie right from his face but stayed silent.
......................................................................................................

"I'm having a hard time sleeping." Izuku lied to Recovery Girl but it seemed to convince her enough to give him a bottle of sleeping pills. He must really look like a mess.

"Take two and go to sleep, boy. I'll be leaving for a while so just take a rest. There's water on the tray over there." Recovery Girl said before leaving Izuku behind the clinic alone.

Izuku inspects the bottle of sleeping pills. He failed at the last loop since Kacchan was there. Will killing myself really work? Will it stop this?

Well, it doesn't hurt to try. This is better than Kacchan dying again.

Izuku took a cup of water from the tray and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Oh wait." Izuku said as he stood up to lock the door. "I can't fail again."

He walks to the bed and popped the bottle open. He spread the white pills on the blanket, counting each one. A total of 18. His seat number.

He didn't even feel nervous. He doesn't feel anything.

As he scooped all the pills on his palm, Izuku wondered if he'll die from the overdose or he'll die from choking when he'll swallow all 18 at once.

Before Izuku could even decide, the knob on the door shook. Someone's here. But Izuku didnt even have to wonder who it was.

"The fuck?" Katsuki banged on the door. "Deku, are you there? Open the fucking door."

Izuku didn't answer.

Katsuki banged again. "Deku? Open the fuck up!!!"

Izuku stayed quiet, holding the pills like his life depended on it. Well, Kacchan's life.

After what felt like hours of door banging, Katsuski stopped. Thank God, Izuku thought. I can't concentrate when he's here.

Izuku raised his palm toward his mouth, ready to do it. But before he could even get one in his mouth, an explosion happened outside the door.

Kacchan.

Izuku thanked that UAs facilities was quirk-reinforced. Kacchan might fuck up Izuku's plans again.

The door was still there but there was smoke seeping inside.

"Deku!!!! What the fuck are you doing in there?! Open the goddamn door!" Katsuki's voice boomed outside the door.

It's always like this. The universe just wants Kacchan to die again.

"Kacchan! I'm okay!" Izuku shouted back, trying to calm Katsuki down.

In the back of his mind, he really didn't want to die. He really doesn't. It pains him to see Kacchan alive everytime he wakes up knowing he'll die again. He hates that even more.

"Then fucking open the door!! There's something wrong with you today!" Katsuki sounded worried.

"I'm fine!!" Izuku smiled even though he knows Katsuki won't see it. "I just...just need to do this....."

"Do what?!!"

Katsuki banged the door again. Izuku heard the smoke alarm go off. Students and teacher's voices mixing with the siren. He even heard All Might.

Don't think about it! Just get this over with.

"Deku!!! Do what?! Say something!!! Oooi!!!"

Izuku heard another explosion. He coughed through the smoke. The door was still there, but it wouldn't hold if another goes off.

Izuku took a deep breath and answered Katsuki before swallowing the pills in one go.

"I JUST NEED TO KILL MYSELF!"

Izuku took a deep gulp of water and felt the pills go down. Yup, he didn't die by choking.

He doesn't know when the pills will take effect but it may take a while, he thought.

He hopped off the bed to go to the farthest corner of the room. He was getting dizzy almost stumbling that multiple bottles of pills and trays fell on the floor.

Izuku could hear the banging getting loud so he prayed he'll die before Katsuki breaks the door down.

As always, the universe was a bitch.

Katsuki did break down the door. And All Might was there with him. Katsuki saw the pills on the floor. He easily spotted Izuku sitting on the bed, a hand covering his mouth which was a dead giveaway.

Come on! Die!

Katsuki launched himself towards Izuku, grabbing the hand hovering his mouth.

"Spill it out, fucking Deku! Please!" Katsuki was pleading, on the verge of crying, and Izuku almost gave in.

Izuku shook his head. No!

Katsuki punched him in the gut. "Please...Deku!!" He continued to pull his hand off.

Izuku could only look him in the eye. I'm sorry.

"ALL MIGHT!!" Katsuki was crying for him.

Izuku could only grind his teeth in frustration when a pair of muscled arms gripped Izuku's.

"Young Midoriya, let us help you." All Might managed to pull the hand away from Izuku's mouth.

"I'm sorry, All Might. I have to do this." Izuku smiled at him, a real one, something he needed to do.

No matter how scared or worried he was, it is times like this that you have to smile. Just like All Might.

"I have to save him."

Izuku looked at Katsuki, who's pale and scared. For him.

"I have to save you, Kacchan."

Izuku held up a fist.

"Since we're..."

His arm glowing.

"Friends!"

Smash!

:( I dont really know when overdosing with sleeping pills  kill you. Like, I imagined it would take a while? But I needed some idea on how Izuku would go over his plan. It's not like he really takes his time planning over it. It just pops out of his mind.

He's getting desperate. Who wouldn't in his situation.
