I'll Protect You

Katsuki's P.O.V.

I solemnly sat in my bedroom. Life is so stressful, I miss my younger days. I laid down on my bed and rested my eyes. Soon my mind drifted along bug thoughts and memories of my childhood. Deku was a huge part of that, it's hard to think of a time we weren't together.

"K-Kacchan can you slow down, you're t-too fast!" The young Izuku called out to his best friend.

"What do you mean? We walk like this everyday" Katsuki responded searching the green haired boy for answers.

"I-I don't wanna go to school..." Izuku stated sadly as tears formed in the corner of his eyes.

"What? Why the hell- heck not!"

"T-These kids... they hurt me and they said they would d-do it again" Izuku has already started crying.

"Tch, I won't let them! C'mon!" Katsuki confidently grabbed Izuku's hand and began to lead him into school.

Third Person P.O.V.

Katsuki made a sound of annoyance to himself. He had always watched over Izuku, since he could remember. Was there even much of a reason to it? Katsuki could even recall times Izuku didn't need protection, yet he was still there.

~

"I-It's okay Kacchan I can go by myself this time! I'll be back" Izuku stated with a reassuring smile.

"No! You'll just get hurt again! Let me take you" Katsuki pleaded as he grabbed Izuku's hand.

"You don't h-have too Kacchan, I'll be fine!" Izuku tried again as he pulled his hand away slowly.

"No, you need me Deku! You're too much of a screw up. C'mon!" Katsuki pulled Izuku again.

~

Katsuki sat himself up and looked to the ceiling in confusion. Why did he always take care of Izuku? Even now, though you wouldn't notice it, he tried his hardest to protect the boy. He tried so very hard to convince him that he needed Katsuki. To stay out of danger, that he was weak and pathetic. But Izuku never listened, so Katsuki slowly retracted his ways but why was he so set on protecting Izuku? Then it dawned on him.

~

"Izu-chan! What happened! Are you okay?" Small Katsuki ran over to the injured Izuku as fast as he could.

"I-I was walking home and these kids came after me a-and they attacked me... They said I was useless and- and that I was never gonna be a hero" Izuku tried to finish his sentence but broke down sobbing.

Katsuki became enraged as he looked at the crying boy. He had a black eye and scraped knees, along with dried blood beneath his nose.

"Tch, I'll kill them all!" Katsuki screamed to the sky as he took a seat next to Izuku.

Immediately Katsuki took Izuku into his arms as he had done so many times before. It felt so right to Katsuki, to have this weak boy in his arms. He didn't mind. Not at all. In fact he craved this feeling, the feeling that he was protecting something he held so dearly.

"I'll never let them hurt you again Izu-chan. I won't ever let anything hurt you again..." Katsuki spoke softly as he pulled Izuku to look at him.

"B-But Kacchan, what if, what if I get hurt and you're not there?" Izuku said worried.

"That'll never happen! I said I'll protect you Izu-chan and I mean it! No matter where we are! No matter how old we are! I'll protect you! I promise Izu-chan. I promise."

Katsuki spoke so proudly and confidently it had to be true. Izuku cried in his arms once again. To him, it was the safest place in the galaxy. He believed Katsuki, he believed him with all of his little heart. But he wanted to be sure, so just in case, he made Katsuki pinky promise.

~

Katsuki shook his head and rubbed his temples. Did he really forget? Or was it subconsciously there all these years. Either way he needed to clear his head, so he put on his shoes and went for a walk.

He never really gave himself time to enjoy the simple pleasures of walking. Stopping to smell the flowers was something he never needed or wanted to do. But right now he desperately needed that small break, for once out of all of these years.

As he was walking he noticed an empty bench. It seemed as if the moment he sat down it began to drizzle outside. He didn't mind all that much, something else had caught his attention. He looked around to find a clearing in the garden, and a crying boy.

Without thinking, without explanation, and without hesitation he took the crying boy into his arms. It felt so natural, so real, so familiar.

Izuku gasped and looked up to the blonde, he had a cut on his cheek and scraped knees. Izuku pulled away heavily hearted and stared at the blonde curiously.

"K-Kacchan what are you doing here?" Izuku questioned.

"Why are you crying?" Katsuki asked.

"I just, r-ran into some problems I- What do you want?" Izuku looked away with tears in his eyes.

Once again Katsuki spared no time in taking Izuku into his loving arms in an attempt to comfort him. Yet, Izuku once again pulled away confused.

"What the fuck happened to you? You better fucking answer me!" Katsuki demanded to the crying greenette.

"I-I was walking home and these kids came after me, they told me I would never be a hero and- and that I was useless and they- they-" Izuku broke down sobbing again, and Katsuki took him into his arms again.

"I'll kill those bastards! Don't worry Deku they won't see the next light of day once I'm through with them!" Katsuki shouted aggressively.

"K-Kacchan why are you acting so-"

"Do you not remember stupid nerd? I made a promise, in fact it happened to be in a situation a lot like this one so you better think real fuckin hard because I'll-"

Izuku cut Katsuki off by hugging him as tightly as he could. It lasted for a long moment before Izuku pulled away and locked their pinky fingers together.

"You remember... Kacchan I never stopped needing you" Izuku cried violently, looking into piercing red eyes.

"I never stopped trying! I just slowly started using... different methods. But I am a man of my word, so what do you say? Think I could try again... try harder..." Katsuki said as he brought Izuku back in.

"I really need you" Izuku said while nodding and resting his head on Katsuki's chest.

So this was it. Katsuki needed to be needed. Not just by anyone, but by the person he needed most. Izuku was glad to be that person, and to have Katsuki back.
