Ever since they graduated from U.A. Katsuki is carrying a small photo book with him.
It's not really a book but rather a small collection of pictures, neatly stacked into transparent foil.
After High School, all the budding Pro Heros were going their own ways and Katsuki quickly realized, not having Deku by his side nearly 24/7 was strangely painful and unfamiliar.
They all separated and started to work in different Agencies, as sidekick interns or even starting their own agencies. Some of them even gave up Hero's work completely.
Since Hero DynaMight went with Best Jeanist and Deku started to work as a sidekick at Mirukos their hero paths also separated.
Every time Katsuki feels lonely or misses the damn nerd mumbling up a storm and his stupid pretty freckled face a bit too much for his liking, he jumps on top of a roof, sits down, and takes out his little collection.
Some might say it's creepy, but Katsuki couldn’t care less.
He flips through the pages and stares at Deku, the pictures secretly taken during different parts of his life.
On some, the nerd is smiling radiantly at a fan after a successful rescue mission (he’s an excellent hero).
In another picture, he’s doing the laundry on his balcony, and yet another one shows him sitting in a Cafe with his favorite matcha latte in his hands …
Katsuki grins lovingly. Damn, he's so whipped.
But Izuku doesn't know about the photo book. And he probably never will.
It's Katsuki's little secret.
Unfortunately, life has other ideas.
One day, during a delicate mission in the small streets of the city, the book slips out of Katsuki's pocket and drops to the ground right in front of the feet of a greedy reporter.
Of course, hell breaks loose.
“What is this?”
“Why?”
"Is this Hero Deku?"
They ask a million questions, crowding around the person that holds the little collection.
Katsuki stomps over to the reporters and yanks the booklet out of that greedy bitches hands.
“Fuck off.”
He yells.
“But Hero Dynamight. Why are you carrying a book full of pictures of Hero Deku with you?”
“It’s none of your business.”
“Do you -.”
“IT’S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS I JUST MISS SEEING HIS STUPID FRECKLED, PRETTY FACE.” Katsuki snaps.
/Oh, no/ There goes his secret. It’s out.
The reporters stare at him baffled, whispering quietly.
“Yeah.”
Katsuki finally huffs upon their silence, turning around with his hands crossed over his chest. “That’s it.”
“But Hero Dynamight.” One of the reporters says slowly, calculation. “You and Hero Deku . . . You’re married.”
Katsuki blushes furiously.
Okay, see.
Katsuki and Izuku got married right after graduation.
BUT: working in different agencies, being separated all day long and sometimes even more . . . Katsuki misses his nerd
Okay? It's totally normal to miss the love of your fucking life
And who the fuck cares if he carries around a book filled with pretty pictures of his husband only to see, what a beautiful, strong, perfect man stands by his side?
He loves him and he'll look at him as much as he wants.
(Somewhere in the city, Deku sneezes up a storm)
