This' Where My Demons Hide (Villain AU)

Chapter 3 - Synthesized

Midoriya might go crazy after the other night. He can't focus much on class because of his encounter, but he made sure no one knows about it. If anyone notices his weird behaviour lately, he'll cone up with an excuse.

If what Syren said was true, then he can't tell anyone about this. It's either because his head might split in two or maybe that person he told that to might be in trouble because of him.

"Deku, are you alright?" Uraraka asked, looking worried.

"Yeah, Uraraka-chan. Just lack a few hours of sleep that's all," he half lied. Heck! He lost four hours of sleep because of a freaking nightmare!

"Are you sure? That's not healthy, Deku," she said and Midoriya nodded to reassure her, "Okay. But in case you need help, just tell me."

"Okay, Uraraka-chan," he said and someone called them from behind and there is Nekta running towards them.

"Nekta-senpai? What's the matter?" Uraraka asked as Midoriya just looks at her.

"Can we go somewhere not much people are?" She asked with a small somewhat embarrassed smile. The two nodded and Nekta practically dragged them to the back of the building where no students are found.

"So, what seems to be the problem, Nekta-senpai?" Midoriya asked and Nekta looked away, her cheeks turning red.

"Well, you see. I kinda like someone from your class," she sheepishly rubbed the back of her neck. The two younger teens turned wide eyed and thought of possible candidates, "And I want some help from you."

"Really? Who is it? Todoroki-kun? Kaminari-kun? Kirishima-kun?" Uraraka asked excitedly with her hands clasping each other. Midoriya smiled awkwardly. He's the shy kind that knows nothing about these kinds of stuff.

"None of the above," Nekta flatly said.

"Tokoyomi-kun?"

"Nah-uh," Nekta said and blushed, "It's Bakugo Katsuki."

The two looked at her wide eyes, still processing what she just said. Ba.ku.go.Kat.su.ki. She said that right?

"Wait, you mean hot-headed, explode here, explode there, bully Bakugo Katsuki?" Uraraka asked and Nekta pouted.

"Wow. That hurts, even for someone who has a crush on the guy," she said and the two first years exchange gazes.

"Well, Kacchan isn't really that type of guy," Midoriya said, scratching the back of his head. Nekta sighed and smiled sadly.

"Well, you are the childhood friend, aren't you? At least tell me a bunch of stuff about him and who knows? Even a frog can be cute," she said, shrugging her shoulders. Midoriya finds it hard to argue with her logic.

"And don't ask why I come to like him," she sternly said in a big-sisterly kind of matter. Acting like a normal teenage girl might help Nekta in her plan so will act like one even if she doesn't like it.

"Oh, okay. But we can't guarantee that we can help much, senpai," Uraraka said and Nekta jumped and hugged the two of them.

"Thank you, guys! I'll treat you to ice cream later on," she said and internally smirked.

Touching Midoriya just made her inject another dose of her emphatic parasite into him. And later, he'll do the same with Bakugo.

"You're welcome, senpai," Midoriya smiled. He then felt a sudden throbbed behind his head making him pause for a moment. It didn't hurt like the previous one, it just throbbed. He don't know if that's a good sign or a bad one.

"Great! So let's start?"

The day ended with nothing unusual going on. Midoriya didn't felt any pain the rest of the day starting lunch, but that didn't helped him any good. That just makes him think that something worst might happen.
