Bakugo P.O.V


I held my hand out in front of me as I walked. Rain pattered against the upturned palm. I was walking to Deku's house to walk him to school like I always do. He is my boyfriend after all. Once I saw his house in the corner of my eye I stopped walking. He wasn't there like usual. Odd. That's when I saw him, farther away walking with someone else. I started walking after them. Narrowing my eyes to see them, the distinct red and white hair of the half and half prat stood out. 

What the hell.  I thought. I've walked Deku to school every day for three years, and we've been dating for almost all of it. Yet, today he is walking with candy cane hair. Jealousy started to bubble in my gut. I just pushed it down though. Deku knew I was the jealous kind, so what was he doing with Todoroki?? Laughing. Some part of me spoke. And they were. I caught up with them. 

"Kacchan!" Deku happily squealed when he saw me. But, his eyes didn't glow the same way they always used to. I kissed his forehead, making eye contact with Todoroki and smirking. He is mine you candy cane motherfucker. Todoroki just glared. The whole rest of the way to school, we were all silent. 

Once we arrived,we all went to homeroom. But once the bell rang, Deku and Todoroki took me into the now empty hallway. 

"A moment alone?" Deku said to Todoroki. Half-and-Half just nodded and walked back inside. Deku smiled at me sadly. 

"Kacchan... I'm in love." He said.

My heart fluttered, thinking it was with me. I leaned to kiss him on the forehead, but he stopped me. 

"With Todoroki..."

Everything shattered, no, exploded when those words fell out of his mouth. I could only stare in dumb shock. Deku's eyes filled with pity. 

"It's just... he needs me! I can make him happy! He makes me happy!" 

"Deku......I...I need you too! Don't I make you happy anymore?" I said, my voice breaking. 

Deku looked at the ground. "You used to..."

I felt myself breaking, tears stung at the corners of my eyes. That's when Todoroki came back out. Deku's eyes lit up the same way they used to when I was with him. He turned to me then.

"But, Kacchan, we can still be friends, right?" Deku said, looking so hopeful. 

Everything that wasn't already broken, broke. Tears streamed down my face as I pushed through Deku and Todoroki, explosions breaking through my clenched hands. I left the school, not caring about attendance or some shit like that. Once home, I crashed to my knees, swarmed by little explosions in the air around me. My head pounded and everything hurt. I stood up and ran to my room, not caring about all the damage I did running there. I didn't even bother putting on my gloves or wraps before punching my punching bag, crying as I did so. As the bag swung with the force of my hits and explosions, I felt my knuckles bruising and splitting. I didn't care. The punching bag was smeared with blood as I finally fell over, out of pain and exhaustion. The last clear thought that went through my head, was that my Deku, wasn't mine.
