Midoriya Izuku was over the moon to finally be at UA High School, an elite school for the gifted, after his mom moved them away overseas for a year to homeschool him at his father’s. It was all because of an incident. But that’s over! He missed home so much!

He was so nervous coming in as a new second year, especially to see a certain someone…

“Hello everyone, my name is Midori-”

“WHAT THE FUCK, DEKU!” Bakugo Katsuki, Izuku’s childhood friend and the other person involved in the “incident” screamed.

“Bakugo!” Aizawa, their home room teacher scolded. “Don’t interrupt him when he’s speaking so we can get this intro-”

“NUH UH! You don’t just get to up and disappear on me without a word or a way to reach you then show up here like it’s fucking normal!” Katsuki seethed.

“I-I’m sorry!” Izuku stuttered. “I’ll explain after class?!”

“Wait, you two know each other?!” A girl with short brown hair questioned.

“Seems they have history…” A girl with pinky curly hair sang as she did a wiggle.

“Um…” Izuku felt even more nervous as everyone stared.

“You can explain when you go out with me on a date!” Katsuki demanded startling Izuku.

“H…huh?” Izuku’s face went pink as everyone gasped and hooted and hollered and Aizawa tried and failed to calm them down. “A d-date?! Me?!”

“That’s enough! Take your seat Midoriya!”

Izuku’s mind was swirling as he took the seat right in front of Kacchan…he wondered if this was an elaborate prank? A way to embarrass him? There was no way he returned his feelings right? Afterall, the last time they saw each other, they weren’t exactly on good terms.

Izuku and Katsuki were friends growing up until at some point, Katsuki acted cold toward him. Izuku couldn’t exactly place when but suddenly, he went from cold to just straight up mean. Izuku still loved and cared about him though and always had hope they would be friends again.

In middle school, it was especially bad. The last day he saw Kacchan, they got in a fight at school and afterwards, Izuku was almost kidnapped! He managed to get away but the kidnapper set his eyes on Kacchan instead. When Izuku saw him get Kacchan in his car,

He immediately grabbed his bike and chased him down. He wasn’t sure how he would save him, but he ended up having a glass water bottle which he broke and slashed the tires at a stoplight. The whole ordeal was terrifying but they both made it out okay. And the next day, he moved.

Now here he was asking him out! Izuku hoped it was serious but he wasn’t sure! He shook off the anxiety of it all to focus on his first day! But gah! Now everyone is going to be talking about him! Despite all the drama in the morning, Izuku had a good first day.

He even made some friends!

“So, you gonna go out with him?” Uraraka, the girl with brown hair from earlier questioned at lunch.

“U-Um…I-I’m not sure.” Izuku babbled as his face heated up.

“Figures he’d ask you out!” She shrugged.

“Why do you say that?”

“Uraraka-kun!” The class president, Iida scolded. “It is not nice to gossip about our classmate!”

“But he should know!” Ochaco lamented. “Bakugo-kun has dated a lot of people. Like A LOT.”

“Oh…really?” Izuku couldn’t help but feel jealous.

“But they never last!”

“I think the longest boyfriend he had was like….three months? That was Kaminari-kun. But something ALWAYS seems to scare them off! They’re still friends though.” Ochaco shrugged as she bit into her mochi.

Kacchan can be a little overwhelming…but as a boyfriend…

Izuku couldn’t help but wonder what would be like. Would he last more than three months? He sulked as he glanced over at Kacchan’s table except…Kacchan was gone?

“Daydreaming about me?” His husky voice whispered from behind him.

“Ahhh! K-Kacchan! When did you..?”

Izuku turned to face him. He was accompanied by Kirishima, a red head, Ashido, the girl with pink curls and Kaminari, his apparent ex?

“You never answered me.” Katsuki grumbled. Izuku had never seen Kacchan blush like that before! Or avoid looking him in the eye!

“Um…you were serious?” Izuku gulped.

“OF COURSE I WAS SERIOUS!”

“I don’t think raising your voice is gonna help your cause dude..” Kirishima laughed.

“He doesn’t mean to yell! He’s just emotionally constipated!” Ashido Mina tried to cover for him. “He really likes you!”

“Shut it!” Katsuki snapped, flustered.

“Seriously we knew all about you before you even introduced yourself.” Kirishima laughed.

“We even know what shampoo you like to use.” Kaminari said bitterly.

“I SAID SHUT IT!” Katsuki fumed.

“Um…can we talk somewhere more private?” Izuku requested and Katsuki froze up.

“Say yes, man.” Eijiro whispered.

“Sure…uh….come with me.” Katsuki gestured for him to follow.

Izuku followed him in relative silence as they walked to the rooftop.

“Kacchan…” Izuku said tepidly once he was sure they were alone. “Mom’s the one who made me change my number you know…she was really scared after that whole kidnapping thing. She immediately made plans to move us with my Dad for a year and pulled me out of school…”

“It’s not like I wanted to not tell you so…so if this is to get back at me-”

“Izuku.” Katsuki said making his breath hitch. He hadn’t called him that in years. “I’m not the same jerk I was over a year ago. I…genuinely really fucking missed you.”

“Y-you mean it?”

Katsuki bowed making Izuku panic. He’d never seen this level of humility from Kacchan ever.

“I’m really sorry I was an idiot to you. I wanna make it all up to you and more. Please go out with me.”

“O…okay!!” Izuku’s heart raced. A lot can happen in a year!

Izuku couldn’t believe it. There he was, after school sitting in a cafe with Kacchan on a date! An actual date! They spent the whole time talking because they had a lot of catching up to do. Kacchan had truly grown up and become even more amazing. He loved every second with him.

They talked and talked and laughed and had a great time until the cafe closed.

Afterwards, Kacchan walked him home. They walked in silence for the most part, both still buzzing with excitement about the events of that day. And when they were halfway there?

Kacchan laced his fingers in Izuku’s hand sending butterflies all the way through him.

“Thanks for not telling me to fuck off…” Katsuki mumbled.

“Kacchan.” Izuku smiled brightly. “I could never.” He couldn’t help be feel bold as he rested his head on his shoulder.

He was so happy, he didn’t even notice when they got to his apartment complex.

“IZUKU?!”

He jumped at the sound of his mom’s voice.

“Izuku is that you?!” She was in tears. “Where were you?! Why were you so late?!”

“Sorry Auntie. That was my fault.” Katsuki waved at her.

“Oh…Katsuki-kun. My, how tall you’ve gotten.” She sighed in relief and wiped her tears. “I’m sorry, I was so worried.”

“I’m sorry! I forgot to text you!” Izuku bowed profusely. “Kacchan um..asked me on a date!”

“Oh!” Inko covered her mouth with her hand before looking between the two in shock.

“I hope that’s okay with you…” Katsuki grumbled.

“O-of course dear, just be mindful of his mother’s old heart and bring him home before the sun goes down next time.”

“Got it!”

“Well um..see you in class tomorrow?” Izuku blushed.

“Yeah.” Katsuki smirked before ruffling his curls.

Izuku was so lucky! He was over the moon humming when he and his mom went inside.

“Don’t you think it’s too soon to date Izuku…”

Inko said worriedly. “You’re only 17…”

“I think it’s fine if it’s Kacchan.” Izuku giggled. “I’m so happy Mom.”

“Right…as long as you’re happy. But don’t let it distract you from school okay?!”

“I won’t!” Izuku promised before running to his room excitedly.

He shut the door and grabbed his phone to immediately text Kacchan!

They texted all night until he fell asleep.

The rest of the week was like a dream. Izuku made friends quickly with his classmates and Kacchan had officially called him his boyfriend on their third date!

By the time the weekend came, Izuku the happiest he had been in a long time. It almost made going overseas for a year worth it. He was humming to himself after gym class when he reached into his locker and felt something sharp prick his finger.

“Ah!”

Izuku looked inside and was greeted with a thorned rose stem with no rose petals and a card attached.

‘Midoriya’ was written on the envelope in large menacing looking letters. Izuku looked around. He was the last one in the locker room. He carefully pulled the card out.

Izuku felt sweat drip down his forehead as he read what was written inside.

‘Consider this your warning. Stay away from Katsuki.’

Izuku’s hand trembled as he wondered who could have left it. But he wasn’t going to let a stranger ruin his happiness.

He ripped up the card and threw it away along with the thorned stem. After he was done getting dressed, he ran out of the locker room to find Katsuki waiting for him.

“Jesus nerd, you fall in the toilet or something?”

“N-no! Sorry! I just um…got distracted!”

Izuku giggled nervously. Katsuki then grabbed his face and kissed him, surprising him. He still couldn’t believe he got to do things like kiss Kacchan.

“Ya see yourself in the mirror or something?” Katsuki whispered hoarsely. “I’d be distracted too.”

“K-Kacchan…”

Izuku blushed furiously. He was so flustered, he forgot all about that letter.

That weekend they made plans to go to the movies. Kirishima and Todoroki were joining them as well and Izuku was so excited to have friends to hang out with!

He was getting ready for the day when his mom knocked on his door.

“Yes mom?” Izuku questioned.

“Are you getting dressed already, Izuku? The gallery opening isn’t until tonight!”

Right…the gallery opening! He forgot he and his mom made plans to go see it.

“Oh! I’m sorry Mom!” Izuku opened the door and apologized profusely. “Kacchan and I are going with some friends to see a movie. I-I know I said I’d go with you but, I really didn’t expect to make any friends so soon or have plans and…”

“Oh Izuku.” Inko hugged him.

“It’s okay. You go have fun…don’t worry about me.” She smiled widely.

“Thanks Mom.” Izuku nodded. “N-next time! We’ll definitely do something!”

Izuku had a blast at the movies thought he couldn’t tell anyone what the movie they saw was about as Kacchan was all over him.

“What was your favorite part?” Shoto asked Eijiro as they all played some games at the arcade nearby.

“I think my favorite part is when Bakugo started slurping on his soda instead of Midoriya.”

“I’m sorry!” Izuku apologized.

“Don’t apologize! He’s just jealous!”

Katsuki snapped.

“Definitely not jealous! I couldn’t pay attention to the movie!” Eijiro seethed.

“Maybe you shouldn’t have insisted to come with us then!” Katsuki grumbled.

“I-it’s really fine Kacchan. I’m glad to get know them!” Izuku tried to calm him down.

“Me too.” Shoto smiled, unfazed. “I think you’re a good friend to have.”

“TH-thank Todoroki-kun!” Izuku teared up. He wasn’t used to this! He wasn’t used to having friends.

“Hey man, no need to cry. You’re awesome just like Katsuki said you would be!”

“Course he is.”

Katsuki said before biting his cheeks causing Izuku to wave his arms in distress.

“Ah Kacchan!”

“Stop being so squishy if ya don’t wanna be chewed.” Katsuki teased.

“Excuse me!” The intercom announced. “Will someone by the name of Midoriya Izuku please come to the desk!”

“There’s a call for you!”

Izuku looked puzzled and checked his cell phone to see if maybe he missed a call from his mom or something, but nothing.

“I wonder what that’s about!” He blinked.

“Want me to go with you?” Katsuki questioned.

“I’ll be okay, just continue the game, I’m sure my mom lost her phone or something!” Izuku hurried to the desk and the lady handed him the phone.

“Hello? This is Izuku.” Izuku said.

“You didn’t listen to me.” A robotic voice said through the line.

Izuku froze up.

“Wh-who is this?”

“You didn’t listen to me and now you will pay just like everyone else. Or you can leave Katsuki now and spare yourself. Your choice.” The line then cut off.

Izuku didn’t know what to make of that.

“E-excuse me.” He asked the front desk lady.

“Did this person say a name? Did they sound normal when you talked to them?”

“No, I thought it was a prank at first.” She shrugged. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah…I’m fine.”

Someone must really like Kacchan. But Izuku wouldn’t let them scare him.

He thanked the front desk lady then marched toward his boyfriend in determination.

“What the hell was that ab-” Katsuki began to say before Izuku jumped on him, wrapped his legs around him and kissed him passionately. Kacchan was his.

It had been two days since that date, and Izuku hadn’t heard anything from the person on the phone. It must have been someone who was trying to scare him. One morning, he went to class and pulled out his pencil case in order to take notes.

Izuku opened it and was shocked to find all the pencils snapped in half, with the sharp plastic edges facing out.

“Huh?” Izuku blinked. He emptied the case on his desk and couldn’t find a single usable pencil.

“What did your pencil box do to you?” Kaminari asked him next to him

Izuku stared suspiciously at Kaminari. He knew him and Kacchan used to date. But still, it was only three months and according to Kacchan, Kaminari’s the one who dumped him so why would he try to stop anyone else from having Kacchan?

“Um…ate my breakfast?” Izuku joked.

“Ya need one?” Katsuki handed Izuku a pencil and he nodded gratefully.

“Thank you Kacchan!” Izuku blushed. He then pulled out his notebook and tried to flip to an empty page, only to find every page covered in black ink sporadically splattered everywhere.

Izuku flipped through every page until he got to the last one.

‘Dump Katsuki or else those pencils won’t be the only thing that’s broken.’

Izuku stood up and threw his notebook in the garbage before coming back and grabbing a new one. One that appeared to be unmeddled with.

“You don’t usually throw away your notes.” Katsuki whispered to him from behind.

“I spilled soup or something on it. Oh well.” Izuku giggled, but he was nervous. He didn’t remember setting his bag anywhere unattended.

Later at lunch, Izuku spoke to Ochaco.

“Uraraka-San..do you know everyone who Kacchan dated?”

“Oooo, keeping your enemies close?” She teased.

“N-no! Not at all! I just um…am curious?”

“Wouldn’t it be best to ask him?” Iida questioned.

“I mean, I don’t want him to think I’m jealous or something! Or make him feel bad if it’s a long list! I just want to know!” Izuku lamented.

“Let’s see…Kaminari-kun, Todoroki-kun…”

“Todoroki?! Really?!” Izuku was surprised. He didn’t get that impression at all!

“Setsuna-Chan from Class B, Camie from Shiketsu. Iida, you went on a date with him, right?” Ochaco giggled.

“It was not a date!” Iida said defensively. “It was a study session! For studying!”

“Your face is all red.” Ochaco pointed out.

“I did not dare your boyfriend Midoriya-kun!” Tenya put his hands up.

“Okay Iida-kun, I believe you.” Izuku giggled.

“I-I don’t want to either!”

“Um…okay?”

“Never in a million years!”

“He gets the picture, Iida…”

“Me and him? Why, it’s ridiculous! We are so different!”

“Anyone else?” Izuku turns to Ochaco desperately.

“Well we went out a few times.” She confesses with a giggle.

“You did?!” Izuku couldn’t help but feel some sort of betrayal at this fact.

“It’s not a big deal. We’re just better off as friends. And rest assured,”

She smiled sadly. “I’m the only one he dumped. So, yeah, I’m not stealing him from you any time soon.”

The way she said it mad Izuku nervous. Was he sitting with the very person who’s been threatening him?

“Yeah…I’m sure no one will.” Izuku said harsher than he intended to.

After school got out, Izuku and Katsuki walked hand in hand through the halls as they made their way to the exit.

“You okay?” Katsuki questioned. “You usually are rambling your whole itinerary for the day at this point.”

“I-I’m fine! Just tired I guess.” Izuku smiled.

“Ya wanna sleep at my place?” Katsuki whispered darkly causing Izuku to get flustered.

“I-I’m really Um..fine.”

Katsuki laughed at him before kissing his forehead. “Relax I’m not gonna eat you.”

“How do I know that? I have nibble marks from you all over.” Izuku pouted.

“Not ALL over.” Katsuki said suggestively. “But I can arrange that if you want.”

“Stop!” Izuku turned red as he buried his face in his hands.

“Sorry, you’re just such a nerd, it’s fun.” Katsuki snickered. “Hold on, I gotta take a shit.”

They stopped in front of the bathroom and Izuku rocked on the balls of his feet as he waited outside. He yawned and stretched. He really was tired. This letter writer was stressing him out. His thoughts were interrupted by a baseball crashing through the window.

He barely fell to the ground on time to avoid being hit as the ball hit the wall and rolled on the ground. Izuku looked around him in shock. He could have died! No one else was around to see it. He grabbed the ball and saw there was writing on it.

‘Did I miss? Dump him or I won’t next time.’

“Izuku! You okay?!” Katsuki ran out of the bathroom.

“Um…I…I think so?” He hid the ball in his pocket.

This person was a lot more dangerous than he thought.

Izuku decided not to tell Kacchan for a few reasons. Their relationship was very new. Izuku had never had a boyfriend before and he didn’t want to ruin it. He read somewhere in a magazine that if there is drama in the honeymoon phase that it’s doomed! He didn’t want drama!

He also suspected a lot of people Kacchan was friends with. And he didn’t want to isolate him from his friends if it turns out he didn’t have to suspect anyone. He was new at school, he didn’t need this over his head head too.

Later that night, he was shaken up. That baseball really could have killed him.

“Are you alright Izuku?” His mother questioned. “You haven’t touched your food.”

“I’m fine. Just…tired is all.” Izuku giggled.

“Izuku, I’m your mother. I know when you’re lying. What’s wrong?”

“Um…when you and Dad were dating, did anyone else like him too?” Izuku blurted out.

“Oh I see.” She giggled. “Katsuki-kun is popular, huh?”

“I guess you could say that.” Izuku pouted.

“If he’s really right for you, there won’t be any other options for him.” She reassured him.

“That’s not what I’m worried about! Kacchan clearly likes me a lot! I’m worried about other people getting jealous of me.” Izuku confessed.

“Is someone bothering you?” She asked, concerned.

“No.” Izuku lied.

“Izuku…”

“I mean it! N-no one is! It’s just..glares or something.”

“Well if these glares become something more, you tell me. We’ll go back with your fa-”

“NO!” Izuku slammed his fist on the table. “My life is perfect here! I don’t wanna go back over there! I don’t wanna be home schooled again! I don’t need your protection, Mom. I’m fine!”

“Right.” She smiled sadly and Izuku felt guilty.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry Mom. I know you did your best. I’m sorry.” He teared up.

“It’s okay, sweetie. I…it would just break my heart if anything were to happen to you. You know that, right?”

“Right!”

They spent the rest of the night watching Izuku’s favorite movies until his mom fell asleep.

After that, there were no incidents for awhile. A month had passed and Izuku almost completely forgot about the weird threats!

Izuku hoped maybe that meant the person got the picture. Things with Kacchan were going amazing but he was starting to get much more handsy than Izuku was comfortable with and he didn’t know how to tell him no.

“Is that a hickey?!” Ochaco gasped scandalized at lunch one day.

“A what?!” Izuku’s face flushed before she handed him her compact mirror. “Ahhh! Has that been there all day?!”

“Geez, you’re dating Katsuki alright.”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Izuku blushed.

“It means he marks his territory.”

Izuku didn’t know why but that filled him with a pit in his stomach. “He did this with others too?”

“Come on, it’s not like he’s a patient guy Deku-kun.” Ochaco giggled. “I think the reason him and Kaminari lasted so long is because Kaminari actually went all the-”

Izuku stood up and ran to the bathroom. He didn’t know why it all bothered him so much. He knew Kacchan dated others but he didn’t know that Kacchan was like THAT with others. That’s how ended up crying in a bathroom stall.

“Izuku?! Are you in here?!”

Katsuki had run after him when he saw him leave the cafeteria.

“No.” Izuku said while crying.

“What’s wrong?!” Katsuki leapt over the stall he was in and landed in there. He he reached to grab him but Izuku pushed him away.

“Nothing!”

“You’re crying.” Katsuki grabbed a handkerchief and wiped his face aggressively. “Don’t fucking lie to me..” He grumbled.

“You…you gave me a hickey.” Izuku mumbled.

“Ya really crying cause you’re embarrassed?” Katsuki laughed.

“It’s not funny!”

“Let me see…” Katsuki observed his handy work and caressed it with his thumb. “You have nothing to be embarrassed about. It looks perfect on you.”

“And what? Did it look terrible on the others?”

“What are you talking about?!” Katsuki glared.

“Uraraka-San told me all about how you marked everyone you ever dated and how…and how you’re like THAT with everyone and I was only comfortable doing that stuff because I thought I was special but if I’m not then I don’t know! I don’t know! We’re going too fast and I’m scared!”

Izuku blurted out and Katsuki looked absolutely horrified.

“Hold on…have you been letting me do things while you’re SCARED?!”

“Um…”

“Izuku.. why didn’t you fucking tell me?

“I…I don’t know. I’ve never done this…I didn’t want you to think I was boring or…”

Katsuki grabbed him by the waist and held him tight.

“You’re so stupid.” He sighed in frustration. “Idiot. I’d never do anything you weren’t comfortable with, you hear? I KNOW you’re a fucking nerd. I LIKE that about you.” Katsuki grumbled.

“And Uraraka doesn’t know what the fuck she’s talking about! I wasn’t exactly the most handsy person with everyone else. I think that’s why they all dumped me. Horny teenagers and shit. But I couldn’t bring myself to do it when all I could think about was you!”

“Really?” Izuku blushed.

“Really…I wasn’t really into any of them, you just disappeared from my life and I couldn’t fucking deal with it. But believe me.” Katsuki caressed his face gently. “You’re the only one I would ever even think about marking as mine.”

“But I’m willing to wait however long you want to make you mine in other ways, got it?” Katsuki blushed before flicking him in the forehead.

“I-I’m sorry! I’ll try to tell you when it’s too much!”

“And I’ll try harder to notice when you don’t.” Katsuki promised.

Izuku felt happy. He felt ridiculously happy and safe with Kacchan. That night he went home and his mom noticed his positive mood. They had a pleasant conversation about school…and then she noticed the hickey.

“Izukuuuuu! Do I need to have the talk with you?!”

“Huh?! N-no!”

She bombarded him with a billion questions about his non existent sex life and Izuku was mortified.

“We’re n-not doing that mom! We just like to kiss a lot!”

“He’s not pressuring you, is he?!”

“N-no! We just like each other a lot mom!” Izuku defended him.

“You know that just because you’re two boys doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use protection!”

“Goodnight!” Izuku ran to his room and slammed the door. He texted Kacchan immediately.

‘I changed my mind, I’m still mad at you about the hickey! 😡'

Kacchan simply replied:
‘🤪'

The next day, Izuku avoided Uraraka. He was upset with her for lying to him and he opted to eat lunch with Kacchan and his friends.

“You should eat with us more often, Midoriya!” Mina encouraged after Izuku gave her his bento.

Kacchan had apparently made too much of his own lunch and opted to feed Izuku himself.

“Maybe I should! This is delicious!” Izuku said excitedly. “Thank you Kacchan!”

“Anything for you Princess.”

“I’m not a Princess!” Izuku blushed.

“All hail Princess Izuku.” Denki bowed.

“All hail Princess Izuku” Shoto and Eijiro followed and Izuku buried his head in his hands. Maybe he should have eaten with Uraraka.

“Oh! Onigiri!” Mina was still distracted by his bento. She took a bite and screamed.

“A-Ashido San?!”

Mina spit out blood.

She dropped the onigiri on the table which had inside cut rose stem pieces filled with thorns.

“What the fuck?” She said said, horrified.

“Did someone mess with your lunch?!” Katsuki questioned.

“I…”

“There’s a note…” Denki pointed out.

Izuku quickly grabbed what he was talking about. A piece of paper sticking out of the rice ball behind the nori.

‘You let him mark you, so now it’s my turn.’

“What does it say?!” Kirishima asked in confusion.

Izuku couldn’t exactly hide it now. “I-I’m so sorry Ashido-San!”

“I…” Izuku suddenly got a text on his phone. He grabbed it in a hurry. It was from an unknown number.

‘This stays between us. Tell anyone, and I’ll mark Katsuki too.’

“I…made my own bento last night! I must have reached for my mom’s roses instead of the leaks I was tired!”

“Then what does this say?” Katsuki reached for the note but Izuku crumbled it and threw it in the trash.

“It was the st-stupid recipe! I must have been so sleepy, I didn’t notice the rice stuck to it. Gosh, I feel awful! Should I take you to the nurse? Come on!”

Katsuki watched in concern as Izuku ran away with Ashido. He didn’t buy it for a second.

The next two weeks were hell for Izuku. Thumb tacks in his shoes, bugs in one of his bentos, someone even threw a rock in his bedroom window which he had to cover up before his mom found out

Whoever this was was angry. He suspected Uraraka but Iida would say off putting things sometimes too.

“You’re not having lunch with us anymore, getting more hickeys?”

Izuku thought he felt safe around Kacchan’s friends but Kirishima once pulled him aside…

“Izuku…is Katsuki treating you okay?”

“O-of course! Kacchan’s wonderful! Why?” Izuku blinked in horror.

“You’ve been jumpy and tired lately and I don’t know…maybe I’m over thinking it…”

“I’m fine Kirishima-kun…”

“If it becomes too much, you know you can leave, right?”

“If…what becomes too much?” Izuku asked suspiciously.

“You know…the relationship.”

“Our relationship is fine!” Izuku snapped. “I’m not leaving him and you can’t make me!”

“Woah! Where is this coming from?!”

“I…just leave me alone!”

Izuku knew he was being erratic but this person wanted to get under his skin. So with Kacchan he kept his composure as much as possible. He out everything in the back of his mind and did his best to be his happiest.

“Hey Kacchan?” Izuku asked him while they were walking home.

“Yeah?”

“You know how when we were kids, we used to have um…sleepovers?” Izuku asked nervously. After the rock incident he had trouble sleeping at night. And he found that whoever this person was never attacked him when Kacchan was around…

“You wanna sleepover?” Katsuki grinned mischievously.

“Just SLEEP.” Izuku pouted.

“I’ll take it.” Katsuki chuffed before picking him up and spinning him around. “Fuck yeah! Come on, let’s get in before the hag gets home and embarrassed the fuck out of me.”

They did not come in time to prevent Bakugo Mitsuki from embarrassing the fuck out of Katsuki.

She was DELIGHTED to see Izuku and even more delighted to find out they were dating.

She was smothering him with a bone crushing hug and Katsuki was mortified.

“Oh I’m so excited you’re back! I told your mom she shouldn’t have taken you away! You’re tough as nails! It was Katsuki here who was week and helpless with that kidnapper!”

“HEY!” Katsuki growled.

“I wouldn’t say that…” Izuku laughed nervously.

“And now Katsuki is trying to steal your virginity! Be strong Izuku! You can do better!”

“SHUT IT HAG!” Katsuki roared before grabbing Izuku from her arms and throwing him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes before stopping upstairs to his room and slamming the door.

“You’re mom’s as fun as I remember her.” Izuku noted.

“Fun my ass!” Katsuki growled before plopping Izuku on his bed.

“She was wrong you know.” Izuku smiled. “You weren’t weak or helpless.”

“I know that.” Katsuki moped.

“And I can’t do better than Kacchan!”

“Dummy.” Katsuki laughed before crawling over him on the bed. “You can’t sit here looking like that while saying things like that.”

Izuku wrapped his hands around his neck and pulled him in for a deep kiss. “Why not?” He batted his eyelashes.

“Because I won’t be able to stop myself.” Katsuki whispered before rolling over him and lifting Izuku on top of him. They made out extensively for what felt like hours but Katsuki still checked in with him every now and then to ensure he wasn’t doing anything he didn’t want to.

Izuku was just happy to be with Kacchan. He could forget about all the scary things happening in his life.

“Izuku..” Katsuki whispered to him as they started to drift to sleep.

“Yes?” Izuku said.

“Are you okay?”

“Why wouldn’t I be?”

“Kirishima told me what happened…”

“Did you have him ask me that?!” Izuku whispered.

“We’re all still freaked out about the Mina thing..and you’ve been acting normal around me but the other guys so you always looked freaked out when you’re alone and I don’t know…I just wanna make sure you’re actually happy!”

“Of course I am! I…I love you.” Izuku smiled sheepishly. They hadn’t said that to each other yet.

“Fuck Izuku….I love you too.” Katsuki held him close. “A little too much….that’s why I wanna make sure you’re alright. I’m fucking worried!”

“Well don’t be….”

Izuku said sweetly. “When I’m with you, I feel safe.” He meant it with every fiber of his being. They kissed once more and something about it stirred warm feelings within Izuku. “Um…Kacchan?”

“What up?”

“You know how I said I wanted to just sleep?”

“Yeah…”

“I changed my mind…”

“You sure?” Katsuki said breathlessly.

“I want nothing more than to be with you in every way possible.” Izuku blushed.

“I don’t know Izuku…I don’t know if you mean it or if you’re just saying what I wanna hear..”

Izuku didn’t know why but that unlocked the floodgates as he started to cry.

“Hey! Hey! What’s wrong?! I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it like I didn’t want to, I just..I’m not rejecting you! But I…”

“No…you’re perfect…you make me feel so safe and I’m so scared Kacchan!”

He buried himself in his shoulder and Katsuki held onto him tightly.

“Tell me what’s going on…I’ll protect you. Katsuki kissed his head. “I’ll make sure no one dares to hurt you.”

“I….I don’t wanna talk about it…can you just hold me?”

“Fine….but tell me eventually?”

“If it doesn’t go away by the end of the week…I’ll tell you.” Izuku promised. He needed to make a plan. He would figure out who it was by the end of the week. He had to. Because he wasn’t leaving Kacchan any time soon.

The morning arrived and Izuku walked back home.

He was wearing one of Kacchan’s t shirts and hoodie he borrowed. He gleefully smelled the hoodie. It smelled like him…

Izuku was almost to his gate when he suddenly heard car tires screech.

“Huh?” He whipped his head around and saw a car barreling toward him.

“AH!” Izuku barely leapt out of the way on time only to see the car backing up and charge at him again. “STOP!”

He ran onto the sidewalk but the car wasn’t letting up. It sped toward him again and he hurriedly scaled the gate, causing him to fall on the other side.

“Ack!” Izuku fell on his arm, crushing it, he was sure. He cried from the pain but got up and quickly dusted himself off. He couldn’t let his mom see he was hurt. He got a text on his phone but he couldn’t read it because the screen was also broken. “Great….”

Izuku took a moment to collect himself before making the grueling climb up the stairs. His leg was also bruised. How was he supposed to hide this from his mom? He figured he should just climb in his bedroom window to avoid her. He froze when he got to it because it was open.

Izuku took a deep breath and climbed inside. His whole room was destroyed with a note left on his bed. Izuku shakily grabbed it and read it.

‘PREPARE TO DIE, WHORE. YOU HAVE 48 HOURS TO END IT OR I WILL END YOU’

48 hours….?

But they clearly just tried to kill him now….well, he guessed if they really wanted to, they could have done more to make sure the car hit him. They let him live. But why the courtesy? Izuku didn’t want to leave Kacchan but he didn’t want to die either.

That day Izuku got dressed like normal and went to school. He called Katsuki on his house phone and asked him to walk with him to class. His mom thankfully was at work so she wasn't able to question him.

He tried to keep his injuries hidden and cling to Katsuki like glue.

When lunch came around, he pulled Kaminari aside along with Todoroki to an empty classroom.

"What's up Midoriya?" Denki questioned.

"Is everything alright? You look freaked out..." Shoto pointed out.

“You guys dated Kacchan, right? So you must have…”

“You must have dealt with that stalker, right?!” Izuku blurted out everything rambling a million miles a minute, venting things he had been holding in. “I mean realistically it could be you guys but you dumped Kacchan so I don’t think so. But Uraraka-San didn’t!”

“But can she even drive?! Would she really go so far as to me with her car?! What did the stalker do to you?!” Izuku finally finished and was out of breath as the two looked at him in horror.

“Oh my God…” Shoto gasped.

“What the fuck?!” Denki blinked. “Dude, go to the cops!”

“If I go to the cops my mom will make me move again!” Izuku cried.

“Would you rather be dead?!” Denki gawked.

“Did none of you really deal with this?! Then why did you dump Kacchan?!” Izuku thought this stalker was haunting everyone…

“Because he’s obsessed with you.” They both said at the same time.

“Oh…” Izuku sank into the ground and buried his face in his hands. He just involved them with his stalker, now they might be in trouble too. “I’m sorry..I thought..”

“Don’t apologize. I’m glad you told us.” Shoto sighed.

“Please don’t tell Kacchan. It yet. I still need to figure out who it is. I think I can still can!” Izuku whined.

“I don’t know…I think you should tell him! Maybe he knows exactly who it is!” Denk suggested.

“They threatened to hurt him if I told him. I can’t risk it.” Izuku whispered.

“What if I tell him?” Denki pointed at himself. “I mean the stalkers probably not watching me.”

“But they’re obsessed with him, they might have a way of knowing. I don’t know…I don’t know!”

Izuku began to have a panic attack and Shoto kneeled by him before petting his hair soothingly. “You need to sleep Midoriya. And go to the doctor. You broke your ARM. I can have my private doctor take a look at you. Your mom doesn’t have to know…”

“R-really?” Izuku sniffled.

“Perks of being friends with the rich kid.” Denki laughed light heartedly.

“Thank you…thank you really I…I just need to say bye to Kacchan.” Izuku sniffled.

“Alright. I’ll call my driver.” Shoto nodded.

Izuku hurried to the lunch room to find his boyfriend.

“Where’s you run off to?” Katsuki questioned.

“I um…I have to go to the doctors.” Izuku smiled at him. “But I’ll be back.”

“What’s wrong?! Are you okay?!” Katsuki put his hand on his forehead to check if he had a fever.

“I am…walk me outside to wait for the car?”

Izuku held onto Katsuki’s arm tightly as they walked through the halls.

“Mind if I piss really quick?” Katsuki questioned as they passed the restroom.

Izuku looked at him in a vulnerable way Katsuki hadn’t quite seen before.

“Y-yeah…go ahead.”

“You sure?”

“Mmhmm!” Izuku nodded. “It’s just a minute, I’ll be fine.”

“I can hold it.”

“Go Kacchan!”

“Alright alright.” Katsuki had a bad feeling in his gut so he went as quickly as possible. He barely washed his hands properly as the feeling got worse and worse.

The look on Izuku’s face played in his head as ran out the bathroom.

“Izuku?!” He called but to his horror, he was gone. “IZUKU!”

“Katsuki?!” Kaminari said in a hurry as him and Shoto ran up to him.

“Where’s Midoriya?” Shoto questioned.

“I don’t…” Katsuki walked toward them before stepping on a white envelope on the floor that had his name on it. “What the hell is this?!” He picked it up shakily and took out the card inside.

‘Katsuki-kun,
Remember last time Izuku disappeared without notice?’

‘That was an error on my part. I should have let him say goodbye. I thought I would give him a chance this time, but no luck. He just can’t seem to let you go. But I have to do what’s best for him.

So this is your goodbye. Izuku loved you very much. He’s safe now.’

Izuku woke up in a car. Did he pass out from exhaustion? Was Todoroki’s driver taking him to the doctor? He sat up and held his pounding head.

“Are you alright dear?”

“Mom?” Izuku blinked. “Did the doctor call you? Todoroki-kun said he wouldn’t…”

“How did you get those injuries, Izuku?” She questioned him. “They’re very serious!”

“I….I fell. I tried to climb the fence to be cool or something. That’s all.” Izuku lied.

“Izuku, you know better than that! Tell me the truth!”

“It is the truth! Where are we?! This is the way to the airport isn’t it? Please Mom! Please no! You don’t have to do this!” Izuku begged.

“I have to keep you SAFE Izuku. Do you remember our deal?!” She said angrily.

“Mom…please, you can’t take me back there!”

“There’s someone after you, isn’t there Izuku? Your father will keep us safe. Your father won’t let anything to us.”

“Mom!” Izuku sobbed. “Dad’s dead! You know dad’s dead! We can’t…keep going back to that house! I don’t like it! I can’t keep pretending he’s alive!”

Izuku’s father died when he was young while staying overseas in his mistresses house. He doesn’t remember all the details but every now and then, they will go to “visit him” in that house. And there on his old recliner, his corpse is dressed up and his mom will pretend he’s alive

After Izuku was almost kidnapped, she lost it and moved them there for a year to homeschool him. Izuku begged her to take her medication and move them back but she wouldn’t. He finally looked up how to sneak it to her in her food and he thought she was better!

He really thought the doctor wouldn’t call her! He winced as his arm still throbbed and that’s when he realized…his arm wasn’t bandaged up. Or his leg. He wasn’t on any pain medication. Did he ever go see a doctor?

“Mom…was it you? Were you the one who…who hurt me?”

“I would never hurt you dear.” She began to tear up. “It was Katsuki, don’t you see? He was hurting you by taking you away from me! He was poisoning you! Seducing you like that awful woman did to your father! I wasn’t going to let it happen again! I had to show you!”

“You…put thorns in my food….thumbtacks in my shoes…you ALMOST HIT ME WITH A CAR!”

“That wasn’t me, that was the nice man I hired.”

“Nice man?!” Izuku gawked.

“Nobody told you to jump the fence Izuku! He was never gonna hit you!”

“You’re…crazy…”

“DONT YOU CALL ME THAT!”

She had a crazed look on her face that sent chills down Izuku’s spine. His own mom…his own mom caused him so much pain.

“HELP! HELP ME!” He began to hyperventilate as he banged on the windows. Hoping anyone would look over at their car. “PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME!”

“That’s exactly what your fathers last words were! I need you to stop behaving like him! He wasn’t a good man, Izuku!” She grabbed a syringe out and stabbed his leg.

“AHHHH!” Izuku cried.

“That should make you relax….just relax dear…mama’s here…”

She cooed as she rubbed her hands through his hair. Izuku’s whole body went limp as he felt his brain shut off. All he could feel was tingles all over.

“It’s okay dear…we’re almost to the airport…we’re almost safe….”

“Safe?” Izuku said drowsily.

“Yes…”

“With Kacchan?”

“No. Kacchan’s dangerous sweetie….you’ll never see him again. It’s okay. I’ll protect you.”

“But look mom…he’s right there.” Izuku pointed to the rear view mirror where Inko saw in horror a helicopter slowly descending onto the Highway.

“WHAT ON EARTH??”

The helicopter landed a few hundred feet in front of them, blocking all oncoming traffic causing them to get stuck.

“What is happening?” Inko seethed as she honked her horn. Several other drivers honked as well. She banged on the wheel frantically.

Traffic stalled and after awhile the horns seemed to die down….when she heard a bicycle bell?

“What is that?” She looked up from the wheel and saw Katsuki barreling toward her car with a knife. He slashed all of her tires and leapt on the windshield.

“GET OUT OF THE CAR!”

Inko tried pulling swerving him off but it was no use. She was stuck.

“Kacchan!” Izuku giggled. “Why are you on the car?”

Izuku woke up in an unfamiliar room.

“H-hello?” He called to no answer. “Where am I?!” He sat up and saw his arm and leg in a cast.

His heart beat quickly as he tried to recall his last memory. Right….the airport. Did they make it there? Was he in an overseas hospital?

“Ah, Midoriya? You’re awake.” A nice girl entered the room. She had white and red hair. “I’m Todoroki Fuyumi. Shoto’s sister.”

“Todoroki-kun? Am I…where’s mom? Where’s Kacchan? The helicopter? What’s happening?” Izuku was so confused.

“Its okay, yours safe.” She said sweetly. “Our doctor said you would be disoriented. We all took turns watching you. I’ll get explain everything then get Bakugo-kun.”

Izuku hugged himself as he tried to feel more comfortable.

She told him all about how it seems his mom was having a mental episode.

“Our mom had similar problems so we transported her to the same hospital. They take very good care of their patients!”

They had shut down the Highway with their helicopter in hopes of finding them and Katsuki was the one who saved him on his bicycle.

“This is our guest room. You’re more than welcome to stay here. We’d love to house one of Shoto’s friends.” She said sweetly.

“So the person who did all that…really was Mom, huh?” Izuku sniffled.

“I’ll go get Bakugo-kun, okay?” Fuyumi told him.

“Miss?”

“Yes?”

“Thank you guys for saving me…”

“Like I said, anything for Shoto’s friend.”

Fuyumi left the room and Izuku felt beside himself. His Dad was gone, his mom….his mom almost killed him and now…

“Izuku!” Katsuki ran by his side.

“Kacchan!” Izuku broke down in tears as his boyfriend held him closed.

“I’m so fucking glad you’re safe!”

“Mmawassthestawlkwranddjehurtmranddadsdeadcorpsehomeschooleeandmylifesucksandimscared!!!!” Izuku wailed incoherently.

“I didn’t catch that, but Half and Half kinda filled me in. It’s all over Izuku. It’s all fucking over. You’re safe. You’re somewhere safe now!”

Katsuki crawled into bed with him and let him cry his eyes out. He wanted to ask why Izuku didn’t tell him what was going on, but that was a question for another time. Right now, he just needed someone who loved him to tell him everything was okay.

When the sun rose, Izuku fluttered his eyes open and was happy to see Katsuki asleep next to him.

“Kacchan…” He whispered.

“Huh? You good?”

“Mmm…school time.”

“Idiot, you’re not going to school today.” Katsuki grumbled.

“But…I..”

“You’ve been through a lot.”

“The doctor ordered you stay home for a couple of days to recover your leg.” Katsuki informed him.

“Home?” Izuku questioned sadly.

“Yeah…” Katsuki kissed his lips gently grabbed his hand before placing it on his heart. “Home. Always. Forever. I’ll be that for you.”

Izuku smiled wide before resting his head on his chest. “Promise?”

“On my life Izuku.” Katsuki kissed his forehead. “So can you open up a little maybe? Share what’s going on? I’ll fucking take on the world with you. Together.”

“It’s kinda crazy…” Izuku grumbled.

“It can’t be that crazy…” Katsuki laughed.

“Okay so you know my Dad overseas? It turns out he’s dead but my mom never buried him and keeps his corpse in his mistresses house. I’m not exactly sure where she went but anyway, my mom likes to-”

“-pretend he’s alive sometimes when we visit and she doesn’t take her medication. She dresses him up in funny outfits and talks for him and it’s really scary and I don’t like it but when I got kidnapped,” He went on and on.

When he was done, Katsuki’s jaw was so low, drool started to come out.

“So that’s when she stabbed with the needle and I don’t really remember much after that.” Izuku pouted.

“Okay that is really fucking crazy.”

“See?! I told you!”

“Fuck Izuku. You should have told me!”

“I was more scared of my mom taking me back there than my stalker…I never imagined they would be the same person.” Izuku sniffled. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you…she threatened to hurt you if I did.”

“You went through all that instead of dumping me like she wanted?!”

“I really love you, you know.” Izuku grumbled. “I…I’m selfish. But I just want you to myself. Even if it means losing myself.”

Katsuki smirked before kissing him again and again and again. “Even if you dumped me, I’d find a way to be with you again.

“I’m glad you saved me.” Izuku smiled. “Thank you.”

“Izuku.” Katsuki smiled at him as pressed their foreheads together. “I was just returning the favor.”

They kissed and for the first time since Izuku was kidnapped, he felt like everything was going to be okay.
