Can you accept me and my scars?

I knocked on the door at the end of the hall and waited for a response. "Come in." A quiet voice said. I slowly opened the door and saw him sitting on the floor at the end of his bed. I walked in and walked over to him. "Kacchan why are you on the floor?" I asked. He didn't look at me all he did was shrug. I sat down in front of him with my legs crossed together. "Are you okay?" I asked. He nodded his head still not looking at me. "No your not." I said. "Yes....I am." He said his voice cracking. "Look at me. Please." I whispered the last word. He didn't all he did was start to shake. "Kacchan.." I whispered. I put my hand under his chin and made him look at me. His cheeks were stained with dry tears and new ones that are streaming down his face now. I brought my hand up to his face and wiped them away, catching the new ones as they fell. I hate seeing him like this, it makes my heart feel torn. Once the tears had subsided he brought his hand to my chest and laid his forehead on mine. He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths and slowly let them out. I brought my hand up and caressed his cheek. His eyes slowly opened and his crimson eyes were looking into my emerald ones. "Katsuki, Izuku! Dinners ready!" Mitsuki yelled. "Let's go." He whispered. He stood up and so did I. He went over to his bathroom and washed his face, trying to make it look like he hadn't just been crying. He grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the room and down the stairs, he let go of my hand, but walked close enough that our arms were touching. We walked over to the dinning room and sat at the table. We sat on one side and our parents sat on the other. Mitsuki sat our plates in front of us and sat down herself. My mom and Mitsuki were talking and Masura occasionally said a word here and there. Kacchan would grab my hand or just graze his hand against me every so often. Once we all finished eating I stood up and so did Kacchan. "I can do the dishes." I said and started walking to the sink. "Thank you Izuku." Mitsuki said. Kacchan fathered the plates and walked over to the sink with me. I washed the dishes then turned to Kacchan, everyone else had moved to the living room to watch tv and talk. "Are you going to be okay tonight?" I asked. "And don't lie." I added. He didn't answer he just looked away from me. "You can come over at my house at any point if you need me." I said. "You remember when we were little and my mom wouldn't let me out cause I was being a little asshole?" He asked. I thought about it and then laughed. "Yeah. I hadn't seen you all day that day." I said and he laughed. "So you snuck into my house and-" "And I jumped on your bed and-" "scared the shit out of me." We both started laughing. "My mom wasn't to happy with me for that." I said. We stayed over there for another hour or two. "Izuku let's go." My mom said. "Okay." I said. I turned back to Kacchan. "Remember if you need me at all just come over. Okay?" I whispered. "Okay." He whispered back. "Bye Kacchan!" I said as I headed out the door. "Bye Deku." He said. "So you and Katsuki are pretty close huh." My mom said as we made our way to our door. I blushed. "W-What do you mean?" I asked. She unlocked the door and walked in. "I mean y'all were...close during dinner." She said with a smile on her face. I shut the door and my face got even redder. "W-well I mean he is my friend so of course we're close and he did just get back from a traumatic experience." I said. We walked up the stairs. "I'm glad your talking again." She said. She went into her room and I went into mine. I changed into my pajamas, which was just a tank top and my boxer, and then I laid down on my bed. I got to spend most of the day with Kacchan it was everything I ever dreamed of, but it didn't feel right......I wish he never had any of that happen to him... It wouldn't have happened if I had just grabbed when they first took him...if I hadn't been scared maybe...maybe he wouldn't be like he is now... it's like he's not even here, like his mind is still trapped and it kills me to see him like this. I wish villains didn't even exist. I sighed and closed my eyes, I'm not tired I'm just...drained. Today has been a stressful day, actually this whole week has been stressful. I raised up a little and turned the light off, might as well try to rest up a bit. Just as I started to doze off I heard a knock....but it wasn't from the door it was from the window. I jumped out of bed and tiptoed over to the window, who the heck would be at my window...is it the league? Are they after Kacchan?! I raised the window up and got ready to Detroit punch whoever it was. "Deku? Are you up?" A familiar voice asked. "Kacchan?" I asked confused. He turned towards where my voice came from. "What are you doing?" I asked in a whisper voice. "I uh....I.....I wanted to see you....couldn't sleep." He mutter quietly. My heart we beating out of my chest, I felt like I was going to have a heart attack. "You scared me half to death!" I whisper-shouted and playfully punched him. "Hehe sorry." He said with a chuckle. "Well come sit down." I said and sat in my bed. I turned the light on and he sat down with me. He looked me up and down with a slight pink tint to his cheeks. "Were...um were you going to sleep?" He asked. I shook my head. "No I couldn't sleep." I said. "Does your mom know your here?" I asked worried that he'll get in trouble. "No. Her and dad is asleep." He said. "Won't you get in trouble if they wake up and you aren't there?" I asked. Hu shrugged his shoulders and laid back in the bed. "Don't know. Probably." He said and yawned.
