The Sandcastle and a Bit of Freckles || DKBK Kid Love Story

"Hey brat! I see you made a new friend!"

Katsuki's mother yelled to him as they got closer. A green-haired woman smiled a few feet away. Katsuki assumed it had to be Izuku's mom since they had the same hair and eyes.

"Did you see us build the sandcastle? It's the best one on the beach!"

His mother smiled at him. "I did see it kiddo. Nice job. Are you ready to go?"

Katsuki was about to say yes, but he paused. He looked to the side at Izuku who hadn't rushed to his mom either.

"No."

His mother frowned at him, but looked to understand quickly. "Don't worry brat, you'll see little Izuku again. I talked with his mom and they're here for as long as we are. Crazy coincidence huh?"

Katsuki still didn't want to leave.

"Can Kacchan come to the beach tomorrow too? And the next day?"

"I want to play with Deku every day," Katsuki huffed, crossing his arms.

Katsuki's mother chuckled, looking over her shoulder at the green-haired woman. "How's that sound Midoriya? It looks like our boys don't want to go quietly."

Hey there! This is the second piece to Heatwave: A DKBK Summer Zine 2024!!! This one was done in collaboration with Naki_Dono !! She created a lovely work of art as one of her contributions to the zine! This entire idea was hers, I just put the plot into more words. And of course, Astra_Waves was the Beta for this fic along with my main contribution fic. Thank you both so much this has been so fun and you guys made it a blast. Same for the mods and everyone involved with the zine. Special mention to Radiant_Allomancer! She didn't directly contribute to this specific zine piece, but was a lovely inspiration and support when I had some random questions. (This is my first zine.)
