"I can't bring myself to love you again. We can never be together. We will never be together" Izuku said as tears streamed down his face and his eyes screamed heartbreak.

"Well fine then. Like I.... I... I want you so bad thou-" Katsuki broke down in tears mid- sentence.

Because the two boys could never bring themselves to just tell the truth. They will fight, and yell, and yes, they will cry.

"N-No we just can't. I can't. Y-You... you can't" Izuku was trying so hard not to cry his eyes out but failed so miserably.

"Please... Please Izuku. I just want- I want- I need" Katsuki breathed heavily while crying, reaching out for Izuku.

Izuku took that step towards the blonde giving them each the droplet of hope they craved. But then, he turned away and ran. He ran so fast and so violently that he ended up falling. In the mud. In the rain. In the middle of who knows where. So there he sat in the puddle sobbing as his heartache let itself hurt for the while.

In that moment the only person feeling exactly and as horribly as Izuku was Katsuki. He picked himself up as he had done too many times to count. He walked, facing the ground and heading back to his room. His room where he could only become more sad.

Both now love- deprived.

Starved to the touch.

Engrossed in agony.

It was unlike anything they had ever felt. And it sure as hell was long term.

The next week was a living nightmare. Both always crying. Both always afraid. So afraid in fact they never even spoke, hense the crying.

No matter how much they were asked and how much help they had access to the two were helpless. No longer helplessly in love, but helplessly torn apart.

Every night they dreamt of the other and yearned for just a glance into the others eyes.

"Izuku, please you can't just stay like this. Just talk to him! Or me! Or anyone...please" Izuku hadn't spoken a single word the whole week.

Why speak when all he could communicate was the pain going on in his head. Better to keep it to himself. Or not keep it at all. But that didn't seem like an option.

"Katsuki Bakugou! I beg you to just talk to me! I'm your mother I promise I'll understand! I can help!" Katsuki screamed even more and became even angrier by the second.

"I fucking said no now leave me the fuck alone before I blow the whole city into rubble!" He screamed as he blasted a wall.

Mitsuki wanted to slap him, and hug him. She wanted to tell him that everything was going to be okay but that was not a promise this mother could make. And that broke her heart, to watch kids break their hearts before they're lives had even began.

After another silent and restless day at school Izuku walked towards a tree far away. He cried the whole way per usual. The only difference being that when he got there someone else was already crying there. The figure was far enough away from the tree to not be disturbed but was not out of sight nor out of mind.

Despite this fact that sad and lonely boy sat beneath the tree. And for a moment he wanted to speak, to himself or the tree or even a small listening grass blade. Yet every time he opened his mouth only weeping could be heard. So he kept it shut and cried into the thin air.

As for the figure, he also noticed Izuku. Yet just by looking at him he was instantly paralyzed and uncontrollably sensitive. This crying figure was obviously none other than Katsuki whom had longed to see his special Izuku more than anything.

They both sat there for a moment before Katsuki got so brave as to walk up to Izuku. He couldn't speak, nor even look at him. So there he stood in front of Izuku, as vulnerable as he'd ever be, with his eyes and mouth shut tightly.

Izuku had no idea what to do. He wanted t hug him so bad. He knew quite well he hadn't even been close to beginning the process of healing. But to buckle now when he had been as strong as he could be.

Izuku stared at the wet grass and did the only thing he knew, and opened his mouth.

"Katsu.... ki..." He said very weakly, causing said blonde to collapse onto his knees.

Why did everything have to hurt so bad. Be so hard. Feel so difficult. To the point where Izuku could speak a name and suddenly have a gun in his hands.

"We. Cannot. Love. E-Each...other.... W-We c-c-c-caannn't" Izuku sobbed harder than ever at the words coming from his own devilish mouth.

"Just because we can't doesn't mean we don't!" Katsuki snapped back as he also cried heavily.

"I... I... I can't sayyyy it Kacchan! I can't I can't I can't I can't I-" Izuku felt light headed and leaned his head back while starting to hyperventilate.

"I'm sorry that you are the best thing that's ever happened to me... I can't live... Without-" Katsuki hesitated but they both knew exactly what he was saying.

They took a long word-less moment filled with tears and heard to breathe seconds. Katsuki starred up into the sky, mutely cursing at the gods. Izuku tried hard to control his breathing but found himself failing.

After what felt like years Izuku spoke.

"I am not allowed to love you. You are not allowed to love me. But here we are. Loving each other. With everything we have. B-But we can't... I- I-" Izuku couldn't stop crying.

"All I want is you..." Katsuki spoke softly with faint hiccups.

"All I need is you..." Izuku held his hand out for Katsuki.

No it wasn't some magical moment where everything in the world stopped and healed. The rain kept raining. The puddles kept splashing. The world was still stormy. Just not for them. Because they once again had their other half.

They held each other so closely, so tightly, so desperately, that it started to hurt. They cried into one another and gave a million thanks to themselves and the gods above for letting them embrace again. Maybe they weren't allowed to be in love but they had never followed the rules anyway.

Hours passed, it was around midnight to one AM and they still sat under that tree. Hugging but not saying a word. They knew everything the minute their fingertips came together.

"I'll keep you forever, I'll need you forever, I'll want you forever" Katsuki pleaded forcefully as if promising to the higher.

"Forever, and a half" Izuku whispered gracefully.

They loved, lost, longed for, and became the others legacy. And so they cried.
