(Bakugos Pov)
I sat in Kiri’s room watching him play some fighting game. I stared at him while he played his game, he looked so hot in that tan-
‘Katsuki, you can't think that stuff about your best friend.’ I shook my head.
‘But he does like fine.’
“Hey, ShittyHair? You’re Bi right?” I asked, If he says no, then I'll drop this.
“Yeah? Why bro?” He looked over at me with those big crimson eyes.
‘I’m going for it, this is my only chance.’
“Well, I was wondering if you’d like to go on a da-” Kirishima interrupted me.
“Hold on, Bakugo. I guess I should have told you sooner, but I have a boyfriend. I'm dating Hanta.” Kirishima put a hand behind his head.
“Oh, cool.” I faked a smile, pretending like I'm not about to cry. Kirishima turned his attention back to his game, dammit, I let my stupid feelings get in the way of my friendship. I stayed silent for a while before standing up.
“I'm going to go train with Deku.”
“Alright Bro, see you.” Kirishima smiled at me like nothing happened. I walked down to Dekus dorm and knocked on his door.
“Kacchan? What do you need.” Deku asked, looking concerned.
“Can we go train?” I asked, focusing my eyes on something inside his dorm.
“Did All Might text you?” Deku asked, about to pull out his phone.
“No, I just need to clear my head.”
“Okay, um. Can we stop by the Kitchen to get water?” Deku asked.
“Sure.”

We had to ask Aizawa Sensei for permission to use the gym. He only agreed since he knew we’d do it anyway. On our walk over to the gym he started talking.
“Is this like ground beta?” Deku asked, looking over at me.
“Kinda, it's really stupid.” I sighed.
“If it's bugging you it can't be stupid, Kacchan.” He half laughed.
“I asked out Shittyhair, but he doesn't feel the same.” I let out a soft breath.
“I hate to be the one to tell you, but. Your crush on him was really obvious.” Deku laughed.
“Huh! What! How?” I stopped dead in my tracks with wide eyes.
“You were constantly staring at him, always trying to be his partner in things, and you’d pout when Aizawa would pair you with someone else.”
“You're just a freak who notices things.” I crossed my arms. “You act the same way with Pink che- '' I couldn't even finish my sentence when he burst into laughter.
“Uraraka?!” He laughed harder. “She's a lesbain! She's dating Tsuyu.” He held his stomach laughing.
“I thought you liked her! You would blush around her.”
“I blush around everyone Kacchan, I blushed when Aizawa was nice to me.” He gave me a look.
“I’m bad at feelings and shit alright.”
“Kacchan, I’m aware, how long have I known you?” He raised an eyebrow.
“Tch, shut up you damn nerd!” I shouted playfully. “Hey Deku? Do you think Shitty hair knew? He said he should have told me sooner.”
“I don't know Kacchan? Maybe.” Deku placed a hand on my shoulder.
“Was he just playing with my heart?” I looked at the ground, squeezing my eyes shut.
“Kacchan, are you sure you want to train?” Deku asked.
“I'm sorry I got all depressing, I'm fine. Can we go train?” I don't know why I asked him if we could go train.
“No, your in no state to fight, let go hang out in my dorm, we can watch old All Might movies.” Deku rubbed my back gently, walking us back to the dorms.
“Won’t Aizawa be mad when not using the gym?” I whispered. I really don't think I can handle him yelling at me right now.
“He won't be mad, don't worry.” Deku smiled at me, I never noticed, but when he smiles his eyes close……

I laid in Dekus bed, after changing in my dorm. He came back into the room holding a bowl of popcorn and holding sodas.
“Now what should we start with? The rise of All Might? All Might's American Dream? The tails of All Might and Friends? Or All Might, The Number One Dream Boat?” Deku asked me, smiling.
“Hmm, maybe The Rise Of All Might.” I smiled at him. We sat and watched the movie, my heart still hurts.
“Kacchan, you are okay right? You can trust me.” Deku smiled at me.
“It hurts, my heart, it hurts.” I stayed staring at the tv. “I was so sure he liked me back, but I was wrong. He's dating Sero.” I pulled my knees to my chest.
“Oh, Kacchan.” Deku wrapped his arms around me, I felt oddly safe in the arms of the person I bullied. “It's alright, you’ll get over him.”
“He was one of the first people I ever felt this way for, I don't know what to do.” I placed my head on Dekus shoulder. “He's one of my best friends. How do I even get over him?”
“I suggest putting some space between you too, even if it hurts, you need to get over him.” Deku placed a hand into my hair, gently ruffling it.
“Thanks for helping me.”
“Your welcome Kacchan.” Deku pulled away smiling. Man, his eyes are really pretty. We went back to the movie we’ve both seen at least a thousand times. I laid my head onto his shoulder. I looked at his hand, noticing how ruff and rugged his hands looked. I wonder what they’d feel like, They’ll be way ruffer then mine.
“Hey nerd?”
“Yes, Kacchan?”
“I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the bullying.” I started, “I just always thought you were trying to look down onto me.”
“Kacchan, I forgive you. All Might may be my hero, but you were in my life, I’ve always wanted to be like you.”
“Don't get sappy on me you nerd.”
“Whatever you say, Kacchan.”
“Why didn't you ever switch to calling me Katsuki?”
“I thought It’ll be weird, I've called you Kacchan our whole lives.” De-Izuku shrugged.
“Well I'm going to start calling you Izuku, but I'll probably still call you Deku in front of the class.” He laughed.
“Good luck with that Katsuki.” He sassed, I cringed.
“Never mind, Never call me Katsuki, stick with Kacchan.” I pushed him gently, He pushed me back. I shook my head, and grabbed a blanket from the stack of blankets sitting on his bed.
“Are you cold Kacchan?” Izuku asked.
“No, I'm burning up.”
“I was going to offer, if you wanted to, I would snuggle you.”
“Why?”
“You look like you need them.” Izuku smiled.
“Fine, never talk about it or I’ll send your ass to the moon.”
“I promise you can trust me.” He pulled me down in front of him. He put an arm around my waist pulling my back against his front, I felt heat rise to my face.
‘Shit, I can't get over him this quickly. I can't fall for Izuku this fast.’ He placed his head on top of mine, keeping an arm over me, I could hear my heartbeat in my ears.
“Kacchan, relax, you're safe.” Izuku whispered in my ear. He slowly began to rub my back, I relaxed into his arms.
‘Damn, he's good at this.’ I thought to myself, feeling my eyes slowly start to close. I slowly fell asleep. I think I’m over Kirishima, I think I’m falling over the person who's been with me my whole life.
