#bkdk #angst no actual cheating, no breakups, just a sad story with a happy ending.

“What?” Izuku questioned the woman in disbelief.

“I said I found a cure. I can save your life, Deku-San… I can do it! I can do it!”

“Thank you…but…I think I’m okay.”

Izuku said liflessly. He faked his smile as big as possible. “I’m ready to go, I think. See All Might.” He laughed while looking at the beautiful view outside the hospital room.

“But…I don’t understand. You’re so young.” His doctor said desperately. “I can cure you!”

Izuku watched the ocean waves crash outside. He was glad they picked a hospital by the beach. He laid down and closed his eyes. He was so tired. He only had a month left. A month left and all the pain he felt for the past 6 would go away.

At least Kacchan would be happy.

6 months ago

Uraraka Ochaco was in disbelief. She had saved tirelessly. All of her earnings from hero work, gone. Everything she worked for for her family, gone.

“You…what?” She choked out as her father guzzled his beer bottle.

“We thought we would lucky…we thought-”

“We could earn back everything you did for us, sweetheart! Pay you back double! And we almost did! Till your Mom threw it all away in the Pachinko machines.” He laughed as the alcohol took over his senses. “Now we’re back to square one.”

“You LOST EVERYTHING?!” Ochaco gasped.

“Even the deed to the house.” He laughed and laughed like it was the funniest thing ever.

“What do we…what do we do?” She almost cried in disbelief.

“We have a hero for a daughter! It’s okay! You’ll get it for us, baby.”

Ochaco took a deep breath and ran out of her house before she floated her parents into the stratosphere. Everything! Gone! All because of their new gambling habit. She wanted to hurl, and not just because of the anger in her stomach.

She was expecting. Her boyfriend wasn’t rich. He was a university student. A hard worker. She thought it would be fine. She made enough for the two of them. She was happy about their little bundle of joy. But she HAD to take 9 months off work. And her money was GONE

She sobbed her sorrows away to Mina at a bar while she had a Virgin cocktail. How she would kill for the real thing.

“Do you need help? A loan? I’m sure you can ask Iida or YaoMomo or Bakugo or…Bakugo?” She

“Just say Deku and don’t make it more confusing.” Ochaco groaned.

“I can’t ask them for THAT much money..I…it will take me YEARS to pay anyone back. I…just wish it was never gone. I wish I never gave my parents access.” Ochaco sobbed.

“I’m sorry sweetie.” Mina rubbed her back. “I’m sorry, that’s Ei, I have to take this.” She walked outside.

“I couldn’t help but hear your Dilema.” Monoma sat next to her. She hadn’t seen him in years.

“Monoma-kun?” Ochaco blinked. “Long time no see?”

“I can give you the money.” Monoma hummed. “All of it. And you’ll never have to pay me back. But…I’m gonna need something from you.”

He said in a sultry tone.

“Look…” Ochaco sniffled. “I may desperate but I have a boyfriend!”

“Please, what do you take me for? I would never ask for something as boorish as that!” The blonde cackled.

“Then what DO you want?” Ochaco groaned. “What could possibly be worth it?”

He smiled at her wickedly sending a chill down her spine. “Break up the Bakugo’s.”

“You’re evil, you know that?” Ochaco began to gather her things. “Asking me for the impossible. I’d have better luck at a Pachinko machine myself.”

“You know you can do it. Midoriya trusts you.”

“He rejected you, YEARS AGO, Monoma. He was always gonna pick Bakugo, get over it!” Ochaco demanded. “I have better things to worry about than your stupid revenge.”

“Actually, I think you have someone far more important to worry about than your friendship with him.”

He pointed at her stomach. “Or do you want her scarfing down Mochi while scared to ask for another because you have nothing else, too?”

Ochaco froze. “That was low.”

“I’ll give you every penny. Everything you lost. You know what you have to do. For her.” He smirked.

That’s how one week later, she ended up pacing back and forth in her apartment staring at her phone. She knew what she needed to do. She just needed to push send. Bakugo wouldn’t be home till later which would leave Deku alone with his insecurities.

Deku helped their hero agency remotely from home after having to retire for mysterious reasons. She had assumed he lost One for All but she visited the other day and he was floating to dust ceiling fan so obviously he still had his quirk.

Ochaco hated this. If anyone deserved to be happy, it was Izuku. But… but she had a child to worry about. She took a deep breath and pushed send. Izuku had instantly read it. And she broke down. She was an awful friend.

No one knew but her. No one knew where Himiko Toga was.

She contacted her and asked her for a favor and the girl lovingly accepted. Ochaco had retrieved Bakugo’s blood after asking to spar with him and that’s how she was able to stage the perfect video. The unmistakable evidence of infidelity.

“Turn your damn phone off.”

‘Katsuki’ says to start the video as Ochaco kissed him all over.

“No, I need evidence when you’re with him that you love me.” She whispered hoarsely.

“Here’s all the evidence you need.” ‘Katsuki’ barked before kissing her fiercely making her giggle in glee. “I love you more”

Ochaco gulped before sending one more photo.

Her positive pregnancy test.

Then a text:

‘OMG Mina, what do I do?’

Deku had read all the messages. But didn’t send one text back. That was normal. He was the type to think things through before blowing up at someone. Maybe he’d even block her number and never speak to her again. The damage was done, she was sure.

Ochaco waited and waited. She gave it a month. She was sure by the month, she would hear something. Gossip spread fast. Surely, Bakugo would be sleeping on someone’s couch. Surely Deku would quietly end things. But nothing. They were still together.

Bakugo had even posted a beautiful message for Izuku on his birthday. Ochaco didn’t understand. Maybe Bakugo somehow proved his innocence? Maybe Izuku never got the message? But she was sure he did because…he stopped talking to her.

Izuku used to call her at least once a day or text her or anything. But any contact ceased. She asked their friends and nothing. Nothing had happened.

She thought it was hopeless, until Bakugo suddenly announced his hiatus from hero work.

Surely that meant they were breaking up? Bakugo must have needed the break to deal with the divorce. But according to the tabloids, the two took a vacation right after. Maybe a last hurrah? Ochaco couldn’t take the unknown so she called Katsuki.

“What do you want floaty?” Katsuki yawned. Ochaco was surprised he wasn’t angry.

“Um…you’re still talking to me?” She blinked.

“Why wouldn’t I?” Katsuki questioned.

“Um…well Deku-kun hasn’t? In about a month?”

There was a pause on the line before she heard shuffling sounds then the sound of a door opening.

“Look…don’t hold anything against him right now.” Katsuki finally got on the phone. “I’m sure he’ll talk to you soon..he…I don’t know. I’m sorry. Fuck. He probably’s just…shit.”

“Bakugo, what’s going on?” Ochaco asked genuinely. “Why’d you take a break from-”

“Kacchan?” She heard Izuku’s voice in the background.

“I gotta go.” Katsuki said hurriedly before hanging up. He turned toward his husband who looked anxious as all hell.

“Who was that?”

Izuku asked him before Katsuki embraced him. He hated this. There was so much…less of him.

“Uraraka.” Katsuki whispered as he kissed him on the head.

“Oh…” Was all Izuku said, lifelessly.

“Why’d you stop talking to her, huh?” Katsuki asked.

“Why is it important to you that I do?” Izuku couldn’t help himself from blurting out.

“Because she’s your closest friend! And ya don’t have a lot of time left! Fuck, I don’t want you pushing away the people who care about you.”

Izuku sighed. “I guess it doesn’t really matter what I want….right?”

“That’s not what I meant.” Katsuki whimpered. “I just…”

“Kacchan, can we just…can we just forget everyone else for right now? I…I just want you.”

Izuku cried as Katsuki rubbed his back.

“I’m sorry.” He whispered to him. “I’m here. I’m right here.”

Izuku wished he really could forget what he saw. He wished he could spend his last days with Kacchan forgetting that someone else was in the picture. Why did she have to call?

He got the news the earlier that year. He was feeling faint, more tired than usual. He lost too much weight for comfort. And he fainted mid battle.

The doctors told him it was strange

They had never seen anything like this. He was sick and it was fatal. But they didn’t know why

Izuku was sure it was One for All. It must have taken his life force. It had gotten too strong. Katsuki had begged him to pass it on to him. Let him go instead but…Izuku couldn’t do that to him. He loved him too much. He decided to live his final days with Katsuki in peace.

They were happy. Izuku felt strangely relieved to finally have time for himself. And for the one who he loved most. But he knew Katsuki was suffering. Every one of their happy moments ended in tears. Izuku felt awful for having to leave him.

So when he got Ochaco’s mis-sent messages, he felt strangely at peace.

Kacchan wouldn’t be alone. And he would have a child too. A new life to replace the one he lost. Izuku felt almost elated. It was too perfect. He wouldn’t leave him in misery.

Maybe he only slept with Ochaco to get back at him for leaving him. Or maybe he really did love her and was just pretending with Izuku for the remainder of his life. But Izuku didn’t care. As long as Katsuki was by his side, he would selfishly hold onto him.

As long as he held him like this, Izuku would keep pretending he saw nothing. He could just be happy.

So why did she have to call?

“Do you want to see the damn sea turtles today?” Katsuki offered.

“Mmhmm.” Izuku nodded. “I’d really love that.”

“Then let’s go get ready.”

Ochaco was stumped. Why didn’t Izuku leave him?!

Another few months passed and she was now living in her boyfriends dorm while swarming in debt. It didn’t work. Suddenly she got a bank deposit that made her jaw drop.

‘Bakugo’s hero ranking dropped 3 places.’

Monoma texted her.

‘Come on, finish the job and there’s a whole lot more where that came from.’

Ochaco cried in relief. She could finally eat for two. She needed to twist the knife. The Bakugo’s were returning from their trip tomorrow. She called Mina.

“Hey girlie, what’s up?”

“Hey Mina, I was thinking of throwing Deku-kun and Bakugo-kun a little surprise welcome back party. I think it would be a great time to show off my new baby bump.”

“Oh my God, yes!”

Ochaco was sure the party would go terribly and she was right.

Izuku fainted as soon as he saw her.

Katsuki had kicked everyone out after that.

She was sure once he woke up, they would get into it and Izuku would kick him out. He had to at this point! She was expecting.

A month after the party, Katsuki wheeled Izuku to see the stars. It was hard for him to walk. His health was deteriorating so rapidly. Katsuki felt like a failure. He tried everything to at least keep his smile till the end…but Izuku hardly did that these days.

“Remember when we were kids? You used to name the stars after States in the US. Cause it reminded you of All Might.” Katsuki snickered. “Called Orion’s Belt Mississippi.”

“I don’t remember.” Izuku mumbled.

“Deku.” Katsuki traced his finger over his hands.

He was so overwhelmed. He wanted to cry. He wanted cry but he knew that would upset Izuku so he had to be strong.

“You know my favorite thing about looking at these damn stars?”

“Hmm?” Izuku questioned.

“The way they make your eyes look.” Katsuki whispered in his ear as he heard the faintest giggle.

Izuku wished he could believe him. But the worse he got, the harder it was for him to pretend. Kacchan loved someone else.

It hurt. Seeing her pregnant with his child hurt worse than All Might’s death. It was agony. Every minute with Katsuki was like a trillion knives stabbing his heart. He wanted to be happy. He wanted to spend his last days with him. But it hurt. It hurt so much.

He thought he could do it. He thought he could just keep pretending he didn’t see anything but he did. So there in the beautiful night sky, he broke down. He broke down and sobbed his heart out.

“Izuku!” Katsuki picked him up and held him close. “What’s wrong?” He cried too.

“I wanna die already!” Izuku wailed. “I don’t want to be here anymore!”

Katsuki couldn’t keep it together anymore.

He was completely broken as he fell on the grass and held Izuku too tightly and wailed along with him.

Another month passed and still no break up.

Ochaco figured the last thing she could do for her child was confront Izuku directly and beg him to break up with Katsuki. It was her Hail Mary.

She walked to the house and was she out of find Mina, Kirishima, Todoroki and Iida leaving the Bakugo’s house looking solemn.

“Hey guys. What’s going on?” She asked anxiously. Did they finally break up? Did they all hate her?

“If you’re here to see Izuku, he’s in the hospital.”

Iida said sadly. “He doesn’t…he doesn’t have a lot of time left.”

“What are you talking about?” Ochaco whimpered before Mina threw her arms around her and sobbed.

“I can’t do this.” Todoroki’s voice cracked before he stormed off.

“Bakugo finally broke down and told us today.” Kirishima said robotically. Far too stunned to feel anything. “Midoriya’s sick. Only has about a month left. It’s incurable…”

“What?!” Ochaco gasped.

“He’s been sick this whole year.” Mina sobbed.

“I know it’s a lot to take in. And I’m sorry you have to hear this when you’re so far along. But..” Iida tried to steady his voice and keep from breaking down. “Bakugo needs us….Izuku has pushed everyone away. And he won’t let anyone see him at the hospital anymore. Even Bakugo”

Before Ochaco could stop herself, she ran into their home. Katsuki was on the floor surrounded by tissues. The place was a mess which was unlike him. He was still crying. He couldn’t even lean up to look at her.

“Bakugo-kun! I- I heard!” Ochaco cried. “Where…where is he?!”

“What hospital! Tell me!” She begged. She had to tell Izuku the truth! He had to know!

“He won’t see you.” Was all Katsuki mumbled. “He won’t see me. He won’t fucking see me!” He sobbed some more.

“Bakugo, I can fix that! I know I can! Where is he?!”

“He’s-” Suddenly Katsuki’s phone rang and he sat up. It was the hospital. His heart raced. Is he gone? Is Izuku gone? He couldn’t be! No! “H-hello?” He asked anxiously. Not yet! Not yet! He had to make Izuku smile one last time! Please!

“Bakugo-San. This is Doctor Miyagi.”

Katsuki whimpered at her voice. Everything hurt. Please no.

“Izuku’s fine. I have good news. But it’s very very urgent.” She said to calm him down.

“Good news?” Katsuki questioned.

“Yes, we figured out a cure! It’s not his quirk like we thought!”

“Bakugo-San?”

Katsuki cried tears of relief. “You can save him?”

“We can…with his consent. But..but he has expressed that he is unwilling to do the procedure.”

“WELL TOO FUCKING BAD!” Katsuki snapped. “MAKE HIM! SAVE HIM DAMNIT!”

“I unfortunately can’t do that but if someone can convince him…if you can convince him, I’m willing to let you slip by our security despite our patient expressing you to be kept out.”

“I’m already getting my fucking shoes on.” Katsuki growled angrily.

“Bakugo! Let me come with you!” Ochaco insisted.

“I don’t have time to tell you to piss off! So whatever! Come on!” Katsuki snapped.

“But there’s one more person we need to grab on the way!” She insisted.

“Who? This isn’t a fucking field trip!”

“Monoma!”

“WHAT?!”

“Listen! It’s really important! And I don’t have time to explain it to you! But everything will make sense when we get there and hopefully it will save Deku’s life!” Ochaco explained before touching Katsuki and making him float before doing the same for her herself.

Izuku couldn’t get it out of his head. Now that he could potentially live, it all came crashing down on him. Kacchan cheated. Kacchan loved someone else. He was gonna have a child. He was gonna move on. Why would Izuku stick around for that? It felt agonizing.

He wished he could hear his voice one last time but all he could hear was the same voice that told his best friend “I love you more.”

“I love you more”

He wanted death to come faster. He felt pathetic. Was that really how he was gonna let himself go? From a broken heart?

But it was more than that. He felt his whole trust broken. His spirit. Everything he knew. Kacchan wasn’t the kind of person to ever do that. Except he did do that. For her.

“Deku!” Katsuki burst in followed by Ochaco which made him shriek.

“WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE?! GET OUT!”

The heart rate monitor increased far too quickly.

“Izuku, calm down! Please!” Katsuki begged.

“Oh my…” Monoma walked in and froze when he saw Deku’s condition. He was gaunt, skinny, pale. He looked like a ghost.

“Deku-kun! Please listen to what I have to say.” Ochaco said frantically.

“All of you! Please! Let me die in peace!” Izuku screamed. “Stop torturing me!”

“Deku, please. I just want to be with you!” Katsuki begged as tears fell down his face. “Please!”

“So you brought HER? Your last moments with me and your brought someone you love MORE?! You’re crueler than I ever thought possible!” Izuku sobbed.

“What are you talking about? She just dragged herself along and him for some reason!”

“Bakugo. Uraraka. Please leave us for a moment.” Monoma said shakily.

“Like HELL I will. I’m not leaving him for any moment.” Katsuki insisted.

“Um…I’ll be right outside.” Ochaco walked out and closed the door.

“Im not leaving.” Katsuki said again.

Izuku was hyperventilating and Monoma felt himself break. He did this to back at Bakugo. Yet…yet Izuku was the one who…

“Get out…” He repeated weakly again.

“Izuku…I’m so sorry.” Monoma whispered. “I royally messed up.”

He frantically typed something before kneeling by and revealing to him his phone.

“What’s this?” Izuku asked.

“It’s my bank transactions.” Monoma cleared his throat.

“Why did you pay Uraraka-San THAT much money?”

“She was desperate. And I was desperate to sweep in and woo you back. I don’t know what she did to try and convince you to break up with Bakugo. But whatever it was, I paid her to break you up.”

“What?!” Katsuki snapped.

“Why would you do that?” Izuku asked.

“Because I’m an idiot.”

“What did she do, Deku?” Katsuki questioned.

“I don’t know.” Izuku whimpered. “What did you do? Even if she was paid to do it…you agreed. You told her you love her more. You got her…you..she’s having your baby.”

“Deku…” Katsuki caressed his face. “She told you that?”

“She accidentally showed me.” Deku grabbed his own phone and presented the messages to his husband who plugged headphones in and watched the video.

“The fuck is this?” Katsuki questioned. “This isn’t me!”

“It’s Toga.” Ochaco burst in the room.

“Izuku…you got this message 6 months ago…you’ve been holding to this for 6 month?!” Katsuki ached. That must have been so fucking painful.

“I just wanted to spend my last days with you filled with happiness. I wanted to forget…”

Izuku snifffled. “I…I’m so confused. You sent it to me on purpose?” He looked at Uraraka. “You tricked me? On purpose?!”

“My parents gambled away my money! All of it! Every Penny! Monoma offered to pay it all back if I just broke you up and I’m sorry!”

“I had to think of my baby! I’m sorry Izuku! I was gonna tell you when I got the money!” She cried.

Katsuki was holding onto his hand tightly, but not too tightly. Izuku could tell he was angry. He was shaking. He was digging his nails into his skin, he was so mad.

But he was holding himself back. He was breathing evenly. And he was swirling his thumb around Izuku’s hand gently. Trying to comfort him.

Izuku was an idiot.

“Kacchan. I’m so sorry I believed her!” He sobbed. “I’m so sorry! You’ve been so amazing.”

Izuku had taken all of the gentle amazing loving treatment from his husband with a grain of salt. He had resented him. He had so many ugly feelings because he believed a stupid video over his amazing husband.

“I’m so stupid!” Izuku hiccuped.

“Shh…Shh it’s okay. I thought it was me too and I was drugged or some shit. Video’s convincing as hell.” Katsuki whispered as he held him tightly and kissed his forehead over and over again. “Are two just gonna stand there and take for granted your tiny window of ESCAPE?!”

He glared murderously at the two in the room. “The only reason you’re alive right now is because he needs me. So GET OUT!”

Dr. Miyagi was amazing. The treatment was a success and Izuku was finally able to go home with Katsuki. The month passed and he lived.

Katsuki carried Izuku in bridal style and kissed him over and over. He was so happy to bring back Deku and not his ashes.

“You know how we said in sickness and health and all that at our wedding?” Katsuki huffed as he tucked him in their bed.

“Mmhmm.” Izuku smiled.

“What about in murder. Like I went through hell when you were sick so can you stick it out when I’m in jail?” Katsuki questioned making Izuku laugh.

“Kacchan. If you’re in jail, Todoroki-kun will keep the number one spot.” He sang.

“Not if he’s my accomplice.”

“And I already asked him, he’s ready to burn Copy Cat to cinders when I say the word.” Katsuki cackled maniacally and Izuku grabbed his and pulled him into his chest.

“I love you. Even if you became a supervillain, I’d love you. Even if you-”

“-made Uraraka watch as her boyfriend made out with Iida-kun as he held her baby, I’d love you.”

“Shit. You’re sexy when you talk revenge.” Katsuki huffed.

“Even if it was Toga. It was still your blood.” Izuku grumbled. “I don’t want her touching any part of you.”

“Don’t worry. I’m all yours. And even though it wasn’t me. I wanna make it up to you. Deku, I don’t want you to ever feel that pain again.” Katsuki whispered. “I just want you to fucking smile and smile and smile. So,” He grabbed and cuffs and hand cuffed himself to the bed.

“Im not leaving your sight.”

“Kacchan!” Izuku giggled in glee.

“I’ll prove to you damnit that you have nothing to ever worry about.”

Izuku kicked off the covers and tacked him to the bed.

“I really have the best life imaginable.” He giggled. “All because of you.”

“Let’s make it a fucking long one, okay?” Katsuki whispered.

“Yeah.” Izuku kissed him. “Together.”

Ochaco kicked off her shoes after a long day of doing commercials for cash. Thankful her popularity brought in a lot of revenue for her.

She didn’t know why she didn’t think of it before. She would be okay.

“Darling, I’m home.” She sighed as she dropped her keys in the decorative bowl by the door. When suddenly she heard the familiar slam of her head board against the wall and her boyfriend grunting.

“K..Ken-kun?” She ran to the room and opened the door to see her boyfriend furiously pounding away at…herself?!

“Oh! Ochaco-chan! You’re here to join the fun!” Toga giggled.

“Huh?!” Ken looked back and forth at his girlfriend and his girlfriend while still thrusting.

“Toga! Get away from- oh..oh my…” She looked down at the floor as she heard Ken’s moan as he finished.

Her water broke.
