Crushed(TodoDeku) (KiriBaku)

Chapter Ten

It had been about five days since their last encounter with Bakugo. He was sitting across from Izuku and Todoroki, with All Might And Aizawa at either side of the room. They were supposed to be apologizing, or talking through their  feelings, but it had been fifteen minutes, and no one had said anything yet, until.. "I'm fuckin' sorry, ok." Bakugo wasn't facing them, but Izuku knew that voice. Regret. Defeat. Remorse. He had only heard it once before, which made it even clearer that he meant it.
"Language, Bakugo." Aizawa said  from afar.
Todoroki looked unimpressed. "Sorry doesn't cut it. You can't apologize for attacking me, attacking Izuku like you did. My life has been hell for the longest time Bakugo, but I finally found something-someone who lightened the load, and as soon as I do, you have to step in, and make it your mission to return me into the hell hole my life was. So guess what Bakugo, I don't accept your apology. I don't care what excuse you have, I don't forgive you, so just let me go back to living my life." Todoroki got up and left the room, Aizawa storming after him. It was a just him and Bakugo now.
"So, you gonna do the same thing as Icy hot? Storm out? I mean he's right, you really have no reason to forgive me, I've only bullied you for years."
"...Why?"
"What-What do mean?"
"Why did you do it? You seemed so angry with Todoroki and me."
"I-I-I know what I did was wrong, I know-"
"Why did you do it Kacchan?!"
"I don't know! I don't have a fucking clue! I acted out of impulse, and got angry. I do that a lot. I couldn't see you be better than me. I-I-"
Izuku heard the crackle in his voice. He had never heard it before, never heard Bakugo cry. But this was it, and it was for him.
"Young Bakugo, Young Midoriya, this seems just about enough. You two are excused."

Todoroki was waiting outside the door when Izuku walked out. Todoroki wrapped his arms around him as soon as he exited the door. Todoroki started to play with his hair, something he did quite often now.
"Hey." Izuku said as calmly as he could. Usually it was Izuku giving the hugs, but this felt nice.
"Can we keep doing this?" Todoroki said into his shoulder. "Being like this, being..together?"
"Of course." Izuku said, kissing his boyfriend on the head. "Of course."
----------------------------------------------
Lunch, finally back to normal, or as close as they can be. Izuku and Todoroki had been barraged by questions, and comforting words. Izuku was always polite and replied with a thank you, but Todoroki most often responded with "It's fine." Or "I don't want to bring it up again."
Lunch was easy, in their close knitted friend group, they all knew not to bring it up. Izuku and Todoroki still had small scars on their arms, but not too noticeable. They had become closer than ever, spending more time together than ever, and rarely leaving each other's sides. Izuku was never sure if Todoroki ever forgave Bakugo, and he wasn't sure if he himself forgave him either.
