Shoto's POV~

"Is someone going to explain what's happening, or do we just get to guess until we get it right?" Sero said, having finally gotten Kaminari to his feet.

Katsuki and I instantly pulled away from each other. We had forgotten about our classmates. I had been so focused on stopping him from completely destroying Kaminari, I had barely registered their presence. Now it was all to prominent.

"Yeah, what the hell is going on?" Mina asked, moving to stand by her bloody friend and the other who was supporting him.

Katsuki and I exchanged a terrified look. If the class found out, my father would find out. There wasn't even a possibility, it's just what would happen. Someone would let it slip, or I'd piss someone off enough, and he'd be alerted.

He'd rip us all apart.

"Are you guys like... dating?" Mina asked again, after not receiving a response from either of us.

We stayed silent.

"And I'm gonna guess that Midoriya is also involved in this, from the way you two were so concerned and the... brutal... well that." She said, pointing to Kaminari, who was now getting looked over by Aizawa.

Silence.

"You guys know none of us are going to care or treat you any different, right? We don't care that you're gay." Mina said, shrug her shoulders at the end.

I noticed Katsuki visibly cringe at the word 'gay'. We had never all really talked about labels before. I knew that Izuku was gay, most of the class did, but Kat and I never talked about us. We were both clearly, at least a little, gay. I just think he had some internalized homophobia.

My guess was that it had something to do with his parents.

I let out a sigh, giving in. I turned to him, "Kat-" before I could even finish my sentence, he was walking away.

"I'm gonna go see Izuku." He mumbled before disappearing from view as he headed back to the nurse's office.

I turned back to our class. "Look, you're right, we're all together." I said, a few of the girls squealed, but I ignored them. "But you guys can't go around telling everyone. Some of our parents... they aren't as accepting as you guys." I said, looking down and off to the side.

I felt a hand being placed on my shoulder and boots come into my view. I looked up and locked eyes with Mina. "Believe it or not, Todoroki, but we'll keep our mouths shut. Parents suck sometimes, but we're all here for you guys, so don't worry!" She said with a sympathetic smile.

I actually managed to smile back at her.

"Now go see Midoriya with Bakugou, make sure he doesn't blow up at the poor nurse." She joked.

I nodded and headed back towards the main campus building. Before I got to far, I was stopped.

"Todoroki!" Mr. Aizawa yelled. I turned my attention to him. "If you're already going, take Kaminari with you, he needs to get his nose fixed." He said, walking to boy over to me.

I nodded, not saying a word. Just because I knew it was an accident and I didn't want Katsuki to kill him, does not mean I wanted to escort him anywhere.

Aizawa walked away, leaving just us.

"He just fucked up your face right? You can still walk fine?" I asked, rather bluntly. I was passive aggressive, sue me.

"Y-yeah, I can walk just fine." He said, clearly a little weary of me.

He didn't need to be.

Probably.

"Then let's go, I have two boyfriends I need to get to." I said harshly, wanting him to feel even a fraction as terrible as Katsuki and I did.

The rest of the walk was made in silence, until we were right outside Recovery Girl's office. He grabbed my shoulder, preventing me from entering.

"I-I really didn't mean to! I never wanted to hurt Midoriya, he's a chill guy and I've never had any problem with him. He's always so positive and helps literally everyone when they don't get something, which happens a lot with me, so it's not like I-"

"Kaminari, calm down. I don't blame you. Katsuki and I, both know it was an accident. We're just... worried." I said, breathing out the word 'worried'. There was currently a lot to be worried about.

He didn't say anything else, just nodded. I took that as a my signal to continue walking inside. Recovery Girl saw us first. "I told you to come back after class!" She said, clearly annoyed that neither Kat or I had listened to her.

I just pointed to Kaminari, using him as my excuse for coming back. She gasped a little at his face, and then turned to Katsuki, knowing that he was the one responsible. She walked past him, lightly smacking the back of his head.

He was about to yell, but I slid into the chair next to him and grabbed his hand. He turned his attention back to the unconscious Izuku, who was laying on the bed in front of us.

I leaned towards him and whispered, "You should probably apologize for breaking his nose."

Katsuki scoffed, "I'm not sorry though."

I sighed, leaning against his shoulder. "I know you aren't."

We stayed like that, for a few hours, just waiting for Izuku to wake up. Recover Girl had told us that he should be fine, with no permanent damage, other than the lightning looking scars he had on most of his body. He was going to be sore and tired for a few days though.

I was so close to falling asleep on Kat's shoulder, when a small voice woke me right up.

"Guys?" Izuku's muffled voice asked.

Kat and I were kneeling right next to him in seconds.

"Izuku? Baby, how're you feeling?" I asked him, grabbing onto one of his hands.

"Like trash." He groaned.

Kat and I both lightly chuckled at his answer.

"What happened?" He asked us.

"Fucking Pikachu sneezed and his quirk spazzed. You're lucky you weren't burnt to a crisp." Kat said, his voice getting quieter the longer he spoke.

Izuku looked down, noticing the lightning looking scars he had running all of his body.

"Whoa, that's so cool!"

"Whoa, that's so cool!"
