A.N: As tribute to the lastest episode of BNHA, I decided to write this to give you guys a little break from the tense atmosphere of A Little Bit Quirky at the moment. God, the episode was just so amazing!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😵😵😵 (Please don't put spoilers in the comments!)
It's just a little fluffy piece of Bakugo and Izuku's past. The song is thanks to lunarlydia who has gotten me obsessed with this band!
Thanks for all the support and please enjoy!!!!!!
(Set: In middle school, before they entered U.A and before Izuku got his quirk.)
~~~
Katsuki Bakugo was sure that Izuku Midoriya, or as he preferred to call him, Deku was strange.
There was something about the boy that wasn't normal. However, he couldn't quite place it.
Watching him, as he sat on the brick wall at the school's entrance, scribbling in the notebook he always clutched close to his heart as if it was the most precious thing in the world to him, Katsuki was still stumped as to what exactly made the boy before him so strange.
He wasn't anything special.
A small, slim figure, with gangly limbs and a prepubescent body, that had that awkward and uncomfortable look about it. His hair, Katsuki decided, looked like plumes of a raven's feathers, that were slowly curling in on themselves, each tip tinted a soft green. He briefly pondered if the boy would look better bald but, he couldn't picture Deku without his wild, messy curls. His face looked almost too round, like it was trying it's hardest to mimic a football and was sprinkled with brown freckles that stood out on his caramel skin, making him look even more childish than he already did. His nose was small and pert and splattered with freckles as well as his plump cheeks. His lips were a dark cherry colour, so plump they seemed feminine, especially as he mumbled the words he was writing to himself, white teeth flashing. From where Kacchan stood, the curves of Deku's mouth stood out proudly against the evening sky, his upper lip, arching into the sharp point of his Cupid's bow and the lower moving swiftly, as he sputtered out words so fast, they all seemed to jumble together into a complicated puzzle, only he could decipher.
Katsuki studied the swift strokes of his pencil that scratched loudly against the page in his notebook, his short, tan fingers nimbly turning his jumble of thoughts to ink letters on a crumpled page. Giddily, he swung his crossed legs as he sat on the wall, small body hunched over his notebook and Kacchan rose a brow when he spotted the boy's small pink tongue poke out from the corner of his mouth as his face twisted with concentration.
With a start, Katsuki realised he was smiling and quickly pulled the corners of his mouth down in a grimace. This is exactly what I mean when I say he's strange, He thought, gritting his teeth.
A hand clamped down on his shoulder and he jumped, turning a furious glare to one of the extras that followed him around. "Bakugo, you okay?" Extra no. 1 asked and Extra no. 2 leaned closer to him. "Yeah, you've been staring at the nerd for a while now."
"I told you not to call him that." He growled, eyes narrowing and both Extras backed away, frightened. With a sigh, Katsuki began marching towards Deku, eyes flickering over his focused form. He didn't notice Kacchan approaching and the blond let an annoyed "tch" once, he realised this fact. Stopping a few feet away, he splayed his fingers and then smashed his hand against the wall, right by Deku's leg, and grinned before sending a large explosion at it. A hole was blown into the wall and Deku was tossed to the ground as, bricks rained down around him. He let out a high-pitched scream as, he skidded across the pavement, knees and palms tearing open. The sight of Deku's blood froze him for a second but, the Extras' irritating chortles woke him from his daze. "Hey, Nerd, what the fuck are you doing at my spot?"
" Wh.....What d....do you mean—? " Deku's soft, wobbly voice was cut off by Katsuki's loud, harsh one. "This....." He gestures to the wall, Deku had been perched a few moments before, ".....is my spot."
Cracking his knuckles, he took a step forward, explosions crackling along his raised fists.
"And I don't like useless nerds in my spot."
For the next ten minutes, Katsuki furiously pounded his fists at Deku's body, throwing a few explosions in for good measure and kicking at his chest, until the boy beneath him was gasping in pain and trembling weakly. Katsuki found himself counting down the seconds until finally, the bell rang and he dropped Deku's collar from his grasp, letting the beaten boy collapse to the ground in a heap. Extra no. 1 and Extra no. 2, gestured for him to follow, as they darted away for class, sneering at Deku when they passed him. "Come on, Bakugo!"
"Give me a fucking minute, retards!" The Extras scurried away, heads bowed and Katsuki walked past Deku only to freeze when, he heard a loud, gruff cough.
A rock, cold and heavy, pressed down on his chest and he groaned in frustration, tilting his head to the sky before, whipping around and stomping back to Deku. Crouching down, he nudged Deku and grunted. "Oi, you dead?"
His only answer was Deku splattering out some blood that had Katsuki's eyes widening in panic for a second. "Deku!"
There was a low grown and then, Deku's mop of ebony curls lifted to reveal his face which had a large bruise forming along his cheek and blood running down his chin from his nose.
Okay, he's alive, I can leave now.
Katsuki started to stand only to freeze when, Deku opened his eyes, revealing two large, glowing emeralds flecked with jade and dull with pain. His eyelashes fluttered slightly before, his eyes shut once more. "K....Kacchan...." He murmured but, the blond was already crouching down and hefting the smaller boy into his arms. Katsuki grabbed the crumpled notebook from the ground and then hooked his arm beneath Deku's legs, clutching his small, shivering body close to his chest. Deku's eyes snapped open and Katsuki found himself pinned beneath that emerald stare, heart thumping so loudly in his chest that, he was certain the boy in his arms could hear it. "K...Kacchan...!" He managed, squirming in his hold, eyes wide. "Stop moving idiot or I'll drop you!"
" W...Where are you taking me? " His breath ghosted across Katsuki's neck and he shivered involuntarily. "Infirmary." He gritted out and Deku stared at him for a moment before relaxing in his hold, snuggling slightly closer. Katsuki kept his gaze pinned on the school as, Deku pressed his face into the crook of the blond's neck, lips brushing over his skin in searing sweeps.
"Hmmm." Deku hummed contently and Katsuki's grip tightened on the boy, pulling him closer.
"Did you see the newest All Might movie, Kacchan?" Deku mumbled into his neck and in spite of the hatred burning inside of him for the boy in his arms, he nodded his head, a grin, slipping onto his face, unwelcome. " Yeah. "
"He was so cool!!!!!"
"The effects were amazing!"
" Right?! "
As, Katsuki carried Deku to the infirmary, they continued to talk excitedly about the newest film, Deku pressing himself as close to the blond's warmth as possible and Katsuki clutching the boy in his arms as if it was the only chance he'd ever get to be able to hold him.
Katsuki found hismelf staring at Deku once more, as he grinned happily into his chest and he shook his head. He's so strange.......
Deku turned his face and blinked up at Katsuki, emerald eyes bright and beautiful. "It was amazing! Right, Kacchan?" He mumbled, nickname rolling off the boy's tongue smoothly and sending a warmth throughout Katsuki's body.
"Right."
.......But, I'm even stranger.
