Izuku sighed as he sat at his desk; the bullying had been getting worse, but it was Manageable; it had always happened, so he was fine; it’s not like one day everything was okay, and then suddenly people didn’t like him anymore. Everyone has always made fun of him except for Katsuki.

He looked up, and he smiled, seeing the boy in his full emo glory. The boy truly inspired him, and he knew the boy would get into the school of his dreams no matter what. He was strong. He had an amazing quirk! How couldn’t he be proud to be his friend? Maybe it was because he had a stupid crush on the boy. It was true the past half of the year he had been watching the boy closer, and he couldn’t find any flaws in his personality besides maybe his cussing habits and how he treated some people. He was mostly perfect.

” Good morning Kacchan!” Izuku says with a big smile as he looks at the boy nervously. He only had a couple more months of the year before he could finally go to his dream school. But today was Valentine’s Day, and well, he was dying with anticipation. He had spent all night making homemade chocolates and even want to find the best card he could at the convenience store. He was really hoping the other way except for the chocolates but apparently, all middle scores Fonda over an emo boy with dyed the tips of hair because he had many cards and chocolates on his desk.

” Morning, nerd,” he says. Izuku had been greeted to no chocolates but a single note. He had yet to give Katsuki what he wanted to give him, but he decided it was probably just a bad idea altogether. ” is it Valentine’s Day totally lame-ass? Geez, I don’t even like sweets,” he huffed, and Izuku frowned.

” same, haha,” he says, and he looks at the letter opening it to find a small note.

‘ meet me in the bathroom your
– secret admirer ‘

” Kacchan, would you ever want to go on a date with someone that had been your secret admirer?” He asks, and the blond huffed, trying to spoke up his hair better, and he looks at him.

” No way, I have way more important things to do, I have to be a hero, and heroes don’t have time for stupid date stuff,” he says, and Izuku nodded. Well, that settled it. He was going to go to the bathroom after class and go face a secret admirer, he hoped it would be somebody kind, he didn’t have any friends, but somebody liked him. And that made him very happy.

After class was over, he made his way to the boy’s bathroom, opening it, and he looked around saying, three boys there, he was confused, and he looked at the weather, could you possibly have three secret admirers?!

” Oh hello um hi,” he says a bit nervously as they started laughing and looked at the door behind him. The rest of the events are a little bit hard to explain; it turns out he didn’t have a secret admirer. Two of the three boys grabbed him by the arms, and the other too off his leg braces. Izuku couldn’t run away, and that made him an easy target. ” please don’t..i-i didn’t do anything,” he tries as they dragged him to the toilet, and the third boy grabbed him by the hair and shoved his face into the water.

Izuku closed his eyes tightly, he heard muffled laughter from the boys, he tried to use his hands as leverage to pull his head out, but he felt like he was drowning; this was dangerous; this could very easily kill him if they weren’t careful, he could drown. But he felt a tug on his hair, and it lifted his head up, and he coughs up water, tears rolling down his cheeks before his face was shoved back in. Discontinued, each time he was lifted up, he would cough up toilet water; after about 25 minutes of this, they seem to have gotten bored, and one grabbed a sharpie.

When they finally left, and Izuku was sure they were not going to come back, he dragged himself to the sink and put back on his braces, standing up, and he looked in the mirror. On his forehead, they had written Deku with more painful remarks on his face. He let out a sob as he started to try and scrub it off, it smeared, but it wouldn’t come off so easy.
” C-come on…damn it I-I,” he cried as he looked down and hot tears rolled down his cheek.

” Deku clubs are already over. Why are you still…what the hell happened to you?” Katsuki asks as he walked up to the green-haired boy, and he grabbed him by the chin, looking at the markings on his face and his wet hair. ” who the hell did this to you!” He says, and izuku was crying so much he couldn’t really answer.

” I-i never did anything to them,” he says as he looks down, ” I just thought s-someone l-liked me…is that something I…I can never have?” He choked out.

” Deku…”

” No! I know you’re just gonna be nice, and you’re gonna lie to me, but I know how it is, and I’ve excepted it now; people like me are Different than people like you; I was born like this for a reason, I was clearly a mistake, and I wasn’t supposed to happen, that’s why my mama banded me, and that’s why I don’t even know who she is, all I wanted was to be treated like somebody normal, and that’s still never happened to me because anytime somebody looks at me I don’t know that kid can’t even ride a bike, I see how they look at me, people either look at me with disgust or pity and I hate it, I’m done, I’m done trying to believe that I will ever be able to do anything like ” he says ” I’m going home” he says as he shoved past him.

When he made his way home, his parents had a similar reaction, but he just walked on past them and locked himself in his room. What was even the point of trying to be a support hero? Everything he’s ever made always ended up not working or exploding. He would just have to go to a normal high school and then get a boring job and then die alone.

Izuku heard a knock on the door, and it opened. Damn the stupid broken lock. katsuki stood there, and he walked in, sitting down on his bed next to him. ” hey…” he says, and Izuku looked away.

” What do you want?” He asks, and Katsuki puts something in his lap. Izuku looked down and saw a box of chocolates.

” look, I know I said this whole thing was stupid, but it’s just not what I’m trying to say is I got you some chocolates. I know it’s probably hard on you, with all the bullies and stuff, but I think you can do a lot of things I can’t do,” he says, “and I’m amazing, so that’s impressive,” he says.
“Even though you weren’t born with a natural power like me or your brother, you still have a great gift, you’re an amazing analysis, you can pick up on the smallest details, and really quickly, you’ve made me a better potential hero, and you’re pretty good with those inventions even if sometimes I don’t work, I believe you’re going to be a great support her out, and you’re my hero so …there stop moping.”

” Kacchan-“

” And I am not taking that back or saying it again, so whatever, but you said something about your mom not wanting you, your parents hadn’t ever told you anything about her, right well a couple of days ago I was looking through my mom’s yearbook, and I found her last name minute, the woman does look a lot like you, and apparently my mom knew her back in the day and promised to look after you,” he says, “She said at first she didn’t know where you went since you were put into adoption, but then she found your dad and told him about it. Apparently, she was involved with some shitty hospital or something, so I don’t know anything about that since she won’t tell me about it, but let’s find out about your mom together, Okay?”

izuku looks at him, and he nodded before he felt the other kiss his cheek and get up. ” did you just?”

” You know what I did! Shut up. I did nothing!” He says as he storms off, and Izuku laughs a bit. Kacchan really was amazing
