Chapter Nine
A/N I'm not 100% about this chapter, for some reason it was really hard to figure out how I wanted to go about it, but I've written it.. and I think it's good. please leave comments on your opinion and what you think!
Btw I think the ships are lining up to be KiriBaku, and TodoDeku, with maybe some background ships. Anyways on to the story!!
~~~
Izuku hugged Bakugou resting his head on his shoulder.
Katsuki hugged him gently but didn't do much else.
After a bit Katsuki pulled away, "Do you want me to get Todoroki now?"
"Just.. text him.." He looked down.
"Alright, Izuku." He got his phone and texted him.
'Get over here.'
Delivered
'Is he okay?'
'On my way'
Icy Hot
"He's on his way." Midoriya nodded.
"Can I..."
"What?" Bakugou looked at him, "You can talk to me.."
Midoriya opened and closed his hands.
"Do you want me to hold you??" Katsuki looked surprised.
"Mhm.." he nodded.
"...Alright." Katsuki wrapped his arms around him, gently pulling him towards his chest.
Izuku wrapped his arms around Katsuki, leaning into him.
Katsuki heard a knock on the door.
"It's unlocked!" Katsuki called out.
The door handle turned and in walked..
"Fuck."
"Kacchan!!!" Izuku sat up out of Bakugou's arms, looking at him, before looking at the door, "Kirishima!!"
The red haired teen stared his two classmates, "Hey.."
"Okay... uh... um.. I could explain this." Izuku blinked some.
"We're childhood friends, even if we fight this isn't that out of the ordinary." Katsuki recovered from his initial surprise.
"Right!!" Izuku's face was red, both from surprise, and from trying to think of a lie on the spot.
Kirishima blinked, "Does this have something to do with earlier?"
The red of Izuku's face drained.
"No, It doesn't, Shitty hair, what did you need?" Katsuki looked at him.
"I was just checking in, you may get mad sometimes, but usually you just punch me when you are.."
"Well I'm fine."
"You don't seem fine."
"I am." Katsuki gritted his teeth.
"What's happening?" Todoroki walked into view, seeing the three boys.
Kirishima spinned around, "Come. On! What is wrong with you three? What happened?! You three wouldn't willingly hang out together unless something bad happened!" Kirishima seemed irritated and concerned now, desperate for an answer.
"Will you not tell anyone...?" Izuku's voice was quiet, but loud enough to hear.
"Izuku. No." Katsuki turned to him.
Shoto tensed next to Kirishima and stared, "you don't need to tell, Midoriya, it's not necessary."
Kirishima looked at them both, noticing the panic settling into the room. "I guess you don't have to tell me if it's personal, but you guys can't just keep acting like you're fine, please."
"I'll tell you, It's not that big of a deal-"
"Yes it is, Midoriya." Todoroki stared.
"... I trust Kirishima not to go around telling people." He looked at Kirishima.
"Fine, both of you. In." Katsuki spoke, moving away from next to Izuku, letting Shoto sit next Izuku, and having Kirishima sit next to him.
"Uh... so.. Kirishima.. and I guess Todoroki doesn't know all of it but I'll explain the why... after.. the what.." Midoriya shifted nervously, causing Todoroki to offer a hand, the green haired boy latching on to his arm immediately.
"So.. yesterday... or early this morning I guess... Kacchan and Todoroki got a text on their phones with instructions, to go up to the roof, and save someone..." Katsuki winced at Izuku's phrasing, as Shoto instinctively hugged Izuku.
"Uhm, mean while I had just gotten off a phone call with someone I didn't know...." he looked to the door of the room, "and.. I.. I was.."
"..Do you need one of us to say it, Midoriya?" Shoto spoke after a few moments pause.
"It's okay.. I.. I was about to jump... I was standing on the edge..." he hugged Shoto's arms.
Kirishima's eyes widened, "but... Midoriya- you..."
"They both caught me in time to stop me..." he curled up, shaking, and by the looks of it, was crying.
"I stayed home to watch and help Midoriya, and Bakugou went to school to make sure Midoriya didn't feel bad about missing a day." Shoto spoke for Midoriya, as he pulled the boy closer to him.
Kirishima looked back at Katsuki, "that's why..."
Bakugou shook is head, which was hanging down looking at his hands in his lap, "In a way I guess, I had a lot of things I was thinking about.."
Kirishima nodded and turned his head, "But, Why did Midoriya..?"
"My dad." His voice was broken and sobbing but those two words broke through that.
Shoto's eyes widened and he immediately snapped his head down to look at the boy.
"Your Father?" Shoto stared into the tuffts of green hair.
"Do I need to explain that Izuku?"
Izuku tremble and nodded repeatedly, grabbing onto Shoto's shirt, hiding his face.
"Alright.." Bakugou sighed, "So, when we were kids, like four or five, Izuku's dad used to.. burn Aunt Inko, Zuku's mom, and uh, when he was diagnosed quirkless he switched targets to Izuku." He shook a little, before stopping some at Kirishima's hand being placed on his arm.
"He was put in jail when the found out.. but was released due to overcrowding..." He looked away, "We were all told he was away on some research project.. no one knew what he did, and he came back, I don't know exactly what's happened, he told me just ten minutes or so before you two came, and he broke down before he explained well.. which makes sense.." Katsuki heard Midoriya crying hard and tried to not focus too hard on it, his nails digging into his palms.
"How?"
"What..?" Katsuki looked up.
"How is Midoriya hurt?"
"Same... way as Inko... burns."
"Is it a quirk?" He stared at Katsuki, as he and Kirishima registered why he asked, Shoto's dad, is Endeavor, his quirk is all fire.
Is that why Izuku tried so hard to get Shoto to embrace his power? Why he tried to prove that Todoroki wasn't like his dad, even with the fire? Was it in some way also proving to Midoriya, that he also wasn't like his father?
"He has a small fire quirk yeah.." Bakugou turned his attention to Midoriya.
Todoroki pulled him as close as possible, though he seemed somehow even more alert and angry now.
Kirishima stared at his hands, "I'm sorry.. I couldn't help you, Midoriya.."
Bakugou grimaced, "You know now so you can.. Izuku trusts you, we do too, but right now let's all calm down... we... we can't do anything right now."
Izuku just kept shaking in Todoroki's arms, and despite everyone's attempts to help him, he only kept shaking.
It was almost as if... Something had triggered Izuku's into thinking he'd made a mistake, like he'd broken a rule or something.
Like Izuku Midoriya, has broken a very important rule.
