After we finish eating and washing the dishes Kacchan speaks up. "Yo what's up with the extra feminine look?" I smile linking that to the looks he was giving me. I stretch reaching to put the last plate away. Kacchan never really judge me for the way I dress. Most kids called me things like gay or cross dresser. But he almost became nicer in a strange way. He's also got great taste! Giving his fashion designer heritage.

"Well I have to go visit someone important." He just looks at me then takes the plate from my struggling hands. He reaches and puts it away effortlessly, He then ruffles my hair in a way that say "your short". "And they think your a girl?" I nod. "And your not going to correct them?" I nod again. "Whatever can I come? Got nothing better to do..." he says huffing.

"Of course Kacchan can come! We're heading to the hospital is that okay?" He hesitated but nods. "Okay I'll grab my stuff then we can go. Put your shoes on okay?" I rush to my room and grab my bag. I make sure the letter is in it before slipping on my own shoes.

We make our way to the bus station and wait for the hospital route bus. Once it arrives we hop on and kacchan speak again. "Who are you visiting?" I think wether to tell him or not. I decided to tell him just not in detail. "I'm visiting my friends mom. She's lovely and my friend too. Sadly he can't see her so I deliver and see her for him. Also please don't correct her if she calls me she." "But-" "please Kacchan!" I give him puppy dog eyes and a pout. "Fine you dumb nerd." I give him a hug as he struggles.

"Next stop hou general hospital."
"That's our stop! You ready?" The boy nods and I take his hand. He freezes up a little but relaxes once he hears me giggle.

As we get closer to the building the white outside seems too bright. It's a very clean hospital. Very expensive too. It has a special ward for psychiatrist care. That's where we are heading. I checking at the front desk and lead the way.

We soon reach the room and kacchan decided to stay outside. I nod and head in.

"Miss Rei?" I ask gently as not to scare her. She turns towards me the light casting an angelic glow to her white hair. "Oh Izuku dear hello." She say patting the spot next to her. I sit thanking her. "So what brings you today?" I smile wide at her. "I have another letter for you! Would you like me to read it?" She lets a small smile grace her face and nods to me. I fish out the envelope and remove the letter. I place the envelope down and unfold the cherry blossom paper. Rei's favourite.

Dear mother,
I hope you have been doing well. I'm sorry I still can't see you. I promise one day I will but until then I hope these letters suffice.

Lately I've been missing you an awful lot. I wonder if you miss me too? I've made some friends and we all live together. It's nice to have people that understand me and have similar issues. It's almost like bonding time. We are really close and consider each other family.

Don't worry no one can beat the real family like you and Shoto. I hope he's doing well also. I heard he applied for UA that's amazing. He'll make a wonderful hero one day.

Much love to you.
-toya.

I finish reading and hand the letter over to rei. "He really cares for you. Everytime I see him he looks conflicted about coming." Rei nods wiping her eyes a little. "He was such a nice boy, Izuku. I hate to think I did something, I miss him so very much. It upsets me he won't use his last name anymore." I gently hug her. "You did nothing Miss Rei, we all know who's behind this."

We stay embraced for a while before I pull back with a gently smile. I try to think of something o change the subject too.

"Hay! I met Shoto." I say happily. "He came to my cafe! I think I scared him a little by knowing who he was. I didn't explain further of course but he lives up to everything you've told me." She laughs a little. "Is that so?" I continue to tell her about our meeting and how polite he was.

I was about to leave when we heard a commotion outside. "Oh my..." Rei gasps her face shows worry. Any time of arguments upset her. A trigger of sorts. "Don't worry I'll sort it out. Please excuse me." I try to assure her. I open up the door and slip out. "Kacchan is that you? I've told you not to make problems you worried Miss Rei!" I scold. Once I finish I see who he was arguing with. Oh shoot. "Ah S-Shoto. Umm oh goodness."

"Izuku? Why are you here!" He say walking over. "Wait did you say Miss Rei? How do you know my mother?" I take a step back feeling a little intimidated. "Hay icyhot back off." Kacchan say.

I keep backing up the more he steps forward. "I um. S-sorry Shoto but this is how I knew you back at the café." I confess. "Allow me to say my good byes to Miss Rei then I leave you alone." I say stepping back into the room.

Rei sits looking to me. I keep my head down. "I'm afraid I'll be leaving now Miss Rei, it seems your son is here to see you. It was very nice to see you again. I'll be back soon with another letter I'm sure." Before she can reply I leave the room. Grabbing Kacchan's hand and rushing to the exit.

Once we are safe on the bus I burry my head into Kacchan's chest. "Deku?" I don't reply trying to keep my tears back. "Hay...de-Izuku?" He try's again. A few tears slip out. Now I definitely can't look at him. I'm a cry baby like always. I'll disappoint him. And after I always argue that I'm strong. "Fine if you won't answer to that then how about this. What's wrong zuki?" His voice is softer and more caring. My breathing hitches at that.

Zuki a name he started calling me one day. It was out of the blue, just "slipped out". I immediately loved the nickname and begged him to keep it. He did until high school. He just stoped. We were back to deku, it upset me. But whenever I asked I'd always get the same response. "Shut up deku." Or "it was childish." The worst was. "I never liked it anyway." I decided after a while to stop asking and just got use to deku again.

I hug Kacchan harder as a sob escapes me. I hear him sigh before gently cupping my chin. "Now now zuki don't ruin that pretty face crying. What's wrong? Can you tell Kacchan please?" I was so taken back by his words I cried more. He freaked out and started fussing which he never does.

I do calm down eventually and tell him part of it. I say how Shoto intimated me and how it triggered some old memories aswell as the fact I'm sad I have to hide the truth from him. Kacchan just listens messing with my hair until I get home. "Okay zuki I'll see you tomorrow okay? Try to get some rest. If he messes with you again tell me and I'll happily blow him up." I nod hugging him one last time. I also give him a little smile and a giggle knowing he really ment blowing the boy up. -it's happens before-

Okay another chapter down! Oop. Now I know some people think bakudeku is a toxic ship but since in this story (my story) Bakugo never bullies deku that much I'm going to allow it. It won't be that obvious and may not become " official " but that's what I'm comfortable wringing so that's what I'm doing.

I would also like to confirm that I have decided to keep Izuku quirkless. Which in my opinion makes him more impressive since he had to work hard to become a feared/respected vigilante with genuine talent.
