Ground Zero-Katsuki x reader

Day 4- Vacation

You and Katsuki were walking down a pretty empty passageway. You were holding hands and you got to a small market. Once you entered inside, you two were just browsing to pass some time.

You looked over you noticed a middle aged couple. They looked so familiar but you didn't know why. You started to see things. Flash backs. You were dizzy and your head was spinning.

"Oi, kit... Are you ok?!" Katsuki had a concerned expression on his face. "Ya... Don't worry... I was just... Seeing things." You turned around and acted like you were perfectly fine. But you weren't, you had just experienced the weirdest thing ever.

You asked Katsuki to wait where he was while you walked over near the old couple. It started again. You were dizzy once more. Vivid memories were triggered by the old couple. From a distance, Kat saw you spinning. He ran over to you and caught you.

"(Y/n)! Somethings wrong. I wont be able to fucking help you if you dont answer me!" You came back to your senses. You were pale and didn't look ok. "I think.... I think i know them." You pointed to the couple. You felt like you were gonna pass out.

"Do you want to talk to them?" His voice was gentle and you could tell he cared. You nodded and squeezed his hand as you walked over. You were directly in front of the couple now.

The lady saw you and her jaw dropped. She tapped on her husband. "Honey..... Is that..." The lady and man were just staring at you. "(Y/N)?!" You started sob. You couldn't control it. The two people from the water damaged picture were standing in front of you. Alive, vibrant, talking once again. "Mom.... Dad....."  The three of you hugged. You were finally reunited with your parents who you believed were to be dead.

You thought parents made you feel like home. but here you were standing in front of them, feeling like strangers. Not knowing how to act. You didn't know whether to hug or punch them. They left you for so long and you didn't need them. You learned how to cook, work and take care of yourself just fine without them. You learned to cope with life's problems without their help. And they decide to show up when you are finally stable about everything. They didn't come back. They could have. But they didn't. You did just fine without them.

"Mom. Dad. Why didn't you come back?" You had no expression in your voice. "Honey, we didn't have time. I regret it. I know, call me a terrible mom. But since the buisness trip..." Katsuki tched. "Do you think any of us had time? DON'T YOU FUCKING THINK WE HAD TO MAKE THE TIME FOR HER? DONT YOU THINK WE SET ASIDE STUFF TO SPEND TIME WITH HER?! ITS WHAT A FUCKING FAMILY IS." You felt a lot better hearing what Katsuki said. "He's right... Whether you had time or not... You could have at least visited. I THOUGHT YOU WERE FUCKING DEAD." You fell into Katsuki's arms crying.  "I learned how to ride a bike when you weren't there. I learned how to cook for the first time without you. I went to school for the very first time without you. You cant just call yourselves my parents when you did nothing that defines you are. You're just a sperm donor and you are just a surrogate. I only had nanny. She took care of me. She fed me. She kept a roof over my head. You guys..." Your parents eyes and mouths were wide open. They knew it was true. They knew that they were in the wrong here. "Do you want us to stay?" Your father asked you sincerely. "Do you want us to stay? Are you actually kidding me? You left me for years and you ask now. Oh my god." You grabbed Katsuki's hand and walked to the exit. "Kat, you know whats funny? When i was a kid and still thought they were alive, i used to think that i would hug them and welcome them home..." He was looking down at his shoes while walking with you. "I dont know how else to react." Katsuki's voice was gentle which was rare.

It took you a while to completely soak in what happened. All you wanted to do was go to bed and cry. "Why dont we join everyone else, it'll help get everything off your mind." You were still silent. You didn't know what to think. It was all so new. "Sure." The rest of the walk to the cabin was silent. You both were realizing what had just happened. "Are you holding up ok?" Katsuki was checking up on you. "yeah." He stopped in his tracks. "No you are not. You can't just be fine. Get it all out. I'll be your punching bag, I dont fucking care. But you cant just be ok." You looked down. "Kat, im ok." You gave him a forced smile. "NO YOU ARE FUCKING NOT. SHUT UP AND PUNCH ME." You turned back down. "Kat, it really is ok." Explosions were shooting out of his palms.

"WAIT RIGHT FUCKING HERE AND DONT MOVE AN INCH." Kat shot explosions away from the resort and started to fly towards it. You weren't far from the resort. The entrance was just in front of you. About 5 minutes later, you saw Katsuki arrive with something in his arm. "Ponytail made it. Now fucking punch it." He had a punching bag sat down right in front of you.

"YOU SAID YOU WOULD FUCKING COME BACK." You shot a hit at the punching back. "YOU HAD NO FUCKING TIME HUH?!" Another punch, and another, and another. You continued until you had no energy left. You shot a fireball at the punching bag at the end. You couldn't walk anymore. You put all your energy into punching.

You felt lighter. Less tense. Although you could barely move, your mind felt clearer. You could think. Everything that was stressing you out was put into that punching bag. You felt like you could finally breathe again. That conversation became closure. That frustration became peace. That confusion became understanding.

You were so thankful for Katsuki. You didn't know what you did to deserve this. He cared about you and you did too.

You loved him.
