Chapter Text
Izuku is not someone who gets angry easily. He is a very patient person...
Hmm...
Maybe that's not the right term. The thing is, he is very good at repressiny emotions. Repressing any negative emotion that is.
With his mom being worried about him 24/7 and izuku being a target for any person who knew he was quirkless.
He never just got the chance to out right act annoyed, angry, irritated, any and all kinds of negative emotions. Because if he did, he would become even more of a burden for his mother and even a larger target for everyone else.
So, he repressed any or all emotions, when in school everyone would ignore him, and when at home he kept his smile up, even if he was hurt or angry.
But that was not the only thing that kept his anger at bay. He also felt guilty for feeling angry since he thought he deserved all the beating he got from kaachan and his friends and all the detentions he got for Cheating in his exams since couldn't possibly get such a high score on his own or getting in fights or distracting everyone with his mumbles or for being an attention seeker even when his classmates were using their quirks on him during class.
He felt so useless, so worthless that he couldn't even help his mother out. She was taking care of him all the time, so the only thing he could do for her was to smile a bit more and bandage himself up without her help, to ease her worries.
But, now that Izuku was in U.A., he felt a lot more free. It wasn’t like that from the start he was very nervous, overthinking what it would be like at the new school but now with help of his friends and teachers, he felt a lot better about his current situation. He felt a lot better about himself. And if his confidence in himself raised quite a bit it was all thanks to them.
He didn't feel useless anymore. He is working hard towards his dream to become a hero. And he is glad he got this far.
Izuku has grown as a person and he is glad to say, so has Katsuki. They may not be the best friends that they once were. But their relationship is getting better everyday since Katsuki apologized. (They have even started sparring together more often -without quirks. Of course-. Offering each other tips on improvements.)
Izuku is so glad that that is the case because if it weren’t for Katsuki, he might have killed someone today.
So, like any other day today was normal, as normal as it can be when you are training to become a hero. And like any other day when kaachan and he were standing in the line, waiting for their turn to get their lunch while talking about a hero move that we both were working on, a student bumped into us who was clearly in a rush.
"Kacchan, you okay?" Izuku worriedly asked as he watched the guy go, who wasn't someone Izuku recognised.
"Hm, fine." replied kaachan while rubbing his elbow, quite mellowed out if you compare him to the start of the 1st year "Who the hell was that?"
"Looked like someone from the support department,"Izuku said, a little suspicious, sharing a look with Katsuki. "Maybe, Mei was after the guy."
"Yeah."kacchan nodded amused. Hatsumi Mei is also someone who was befriended by class 1-A rather quickly after the 1st year's sport festival, even after the whole situation with Iida.
Izuku was brought out of his musing when he felt a twisted feeling in his stomach, like he was about to hurl but wasn’t actually feeling nauseous.
"..Ugh" ‘I'm going to hurl’ Izuku barely stops himself and turns to look at Kacchan when he hears him groan but before he could say anything both of them disappeared from the line.
Todoroki and Mina, both who were walking up towards them, stared in shock at the empty space for a few seconds.
"Did they just disappear???" Mina asked, shocked, pinching herself just to be sure she hasn't dreamt a whole day of school because that would be crazy.
"Yeah." Todoroki replied who was back to his normal nonchalant behavior, in record time, clearly influenced by being Mido and Bakubae’s friends for so long, Mina thinks. ‘Something is always going on with these two.’ Mina shakes her head. ‘Honestly, she should be used to it by now.’
Mina comes out of her dazed state when Todoroki started walking towards the other direction.
"Wha-? Wait! Where are you going!?" Mina, still kinda in shock, runs behind Todoroki.
"I'm going to get Aizawa sensei."

They fell from the ceiling in a jumbled mess of limbs over each other.
"Ugh...you are heavy. Get off of me," Kacchan grumbled.
Izuku deliberately put all his weight on his partner while getting off of him and sat down beside him.
"Are you okay?" Izuku asked, looking around the front of the room which has a black board and a door to the side, ignoring the other's glare. "Which class is this? Doesn't look like somewhere in U.A."
Izuku got up, again deliberately putting all the weight on Katsuki's shoulder, who was about to get up. Izuku stood up and offered his hand to Katsuki.
Katsuki just scoffed which sounded more like a sigh than anything else and grabbed his hand to get up, it almost looked like he was about to pull izuku down with him again but instead just got up. "You're a nuisance." Which sounded way more fond than it should have.
Izuku just smiled innocently, like he didn't know what Katsuki was talking about. Katsuki just sighed again.
They both turned around to the shocked faces of their old middle school classmates.
They looked like they were about to pass out because when is Bakugou so calm, since when is Deku and Bakugou relationship good and why the hell deku is wearing the same uniform as Bakugou.
"...yep, this is definitely something that Mei did."
(somewhere in the canteen a girl with pink locks sneezed, handing a package to a second year.
“Are you alright?”
“Hmm? Oh, yeah sure.” She waves a hand around, “I made the adjustments that you needed in your shoes. Test them out today in your practicals. And give me your feedback by tomorrow.”
“Thank you so much, so what is the favor you wanted to ask for?”
Mei stares at her,“...I will call for you when you're needed.”
“...Ri-Right. Okay, I'll be there.”
“Good.” ‘Now, where did that guy ran off to?’)
Izuku was somehow very sure about his thought process that led him to Mei being the instigator of this problem. As he should be.
As if, that statement was said just to ensure chaos. Everyone started to scream and shout but loudest was of course our one(now two) and only pomeranian a.k.a little bakugou.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!!" little bakugou snarled glaring at the two of them.
"Who the hell do you think we are?” Katsuki sassed back, “You have eyes, don't you? I don't remember my eyesight being weak."
"HAH?!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! YOU FAKE!! HOW DO WE BELIEVE YOU ARE NOT A VIL-"
"Was I always this loud?" Katsuki asked, turning towards Izuku, frowning. Izuku pats his shoulder.
"Hm. Clearly, it hasn’t been thaaaaat long since you mellowed out." Katsuki stabs Izuku in the rib with his elbow which Izuku dodges and snickers."And I think it was also because you were starting to lose your hearing around this point in time, you know."
Pointedly staring at his hearing aid and reminiscing about Katsuki's freakout over looking weak if he wore hearing aids. He squeezes Katsuki's shoulder and Katsuki hums in return, deep in thoughts, solemn.
