Mixed Feelings||KatsuDeku

•[12]•

I slammed my locker and walked up the stairs to class yet again, right when the bell rang. I watched as Deku had his head in his hands and our classmates were surrounding him up until Aizawa walked in.

Everybody sat and waited for him to excuse us to weight-room and once everyone was excused Deku sped out ahead of everybody into the weight-room.

When we all got out there Deku had his head hung low, doing exercises with All Might next to him and he sent everyone to their positions.

Our group did our workouts glancing back at Deku to see if he'd come over but he never did. I grew concerned and started overthinking the situation and time passed me so before I knew it class was dismissed.

Deku raced down and I raced behind him since everyone was going to lunch and I turned him around, slamming him into a locker.

"You-"

"Please not today" he said quietly.

"What do you mean not today?"

He grabbed my wrists and shoved me out of the way, pissing me off. I followed him with sparks in my hands and he turned around, putting a hand on my chest as I growled his name.

"Katsuki please not today."

"Don't call me Katsuki."

I was shocked that he called me by my actual name and I hated it, but I knew that it must be serious if that's what it's come down to.

"You can beat me up or put me down as much as you want any other day but please," he cried desperately, "please not today."

I looked at him pathetically trying to make distance between us since his hand was still on my chest and I sighed. I looked at him staring at me with tears and dropped it, walking of with a scowl.

My heart hurt and I hated it, I hated it so much. I didn't want to comfort Deku, I didn't want to hug him or kiss him to make him feel better but it felt as if I had no choice.

I hated not having a choice.

I walked home and saw my mom sitting in the same spot as yesterday with her head in her hands.

I sighed and tossed my things down to sit next to her. I didn't like seeing her like this so I tried to comfort her but it was harder than it looked.

I wrapped an arm around her shoulder and pulled her towards me so she could lean on me.

"You really don't remember Inko?" She cried.

"No"

"Inko is Izuku's mother"

My eyes grew wide and today made sense. I understood why Deku was crying and why today he couldn't handle me.

"Katsuki, I don't want to do this but I have to go on a business trip and I won't be back for a week or two" she sniffed.

"Okay"

"I'm going to have Izuku stay here while I'm gone to keep you in line and to make sure he's with someone"

"What no I'm fine on my own!" I protested.

"But he isn't! I'll be leaving and discussing this with him tomorrow morning Katsuki."
