A loud thud diverts our attention, making us twist our heads towards the noise. An ill-tempered Katsuki trudges to the kitchen, glaring at anyone who looks at him. We make eye contact, only for a second before I scrunch my face and turn away. My friends stare at me with an unwavering gaze.

"That's what we mean." Sero sighs, bringing a hand up to ruffle his hair, "He's been like that all week."

"Yeah, he yells at me more than usual. It's kinda scary." Kaminari shivers, crossing his arms while leaning back in his chair. I roll my eyes, shoving some of my eggs in my mouth.

"Well I'm not talking to him unless he apologizes. So sorry if y'all have to deal with his shitty attitude."

"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY DEKU!" A crash is heard, followed by the stomping of ones feet. Katsuki's strong hands bang on the table, he pushes his face down to meet mine sneering. I glare at him, placing my fork down on my tray.

"Is there a problem?"

Katsuki huffs, standing up and shoving his hands into his pockets. He then turns his head pouting, a light pink blush on his cheeks.

"Can we fucking talk?"

"No." I reply, crossing my legs together. Katsuki blinks in surprise, dropping his shoulders. He quirks up his lip, baring his teeth at me.

"Can we fucking talk....please?"

"WHOA DID BAKUGOU JUST SAY PLEASE?!" Our friends yell in shock.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS EXTRAS!!"

I stand up, pushing my chair out. I grab Katsuki's hand and drag him to a secluded area. Once we arrive I let go of his hand and lean against the wall, my gaze focused on his face.

"Yes?"

Katsuki shuffles on his feet, staring at the floor below. He then averts his stare to me, his crimson eyes sparkling in determination.

"I'm an asshole."

"I've noticed."

"I'm an asshole, and I'm sorry that I can't help being a fucking asshole. You don't deserve to be...questioned. I-" His breath hitches as he bites his lip. "I l-love you. And I was afraid."

My eyes flutter in shock and my heart pounds in my chest at his confession. My mouth begins to dry out, and my palms become sweaty as I try to comprehend what he admitted.

"You love me...?" I mumble, leaning my head back against the wall.

"Yeah."

"Why were you afraid?"

Katsuki steps closer to my heaving body, placing a hand next to my head, trapping me against the wall.

"I was afraid that he would take you from me. You deserve so much better than I can fucking give. I'm an asshole, I don't know how to hold my tongue. I can't comfort you or make you feel good, I always manage to fuck shit up." His eyes begin to water as a tear slips down his cheek. "I love you so fucking much it hurts, so if it makes you happy to be with someone like him..."

I roughly grab Katsuki's chin making him face me. My stern gaze makes his eyes widen as more tears slip out.

"You sound so stupid right now." I bring my other hand up to wipe his tears, leaning foreword to kiss both of his cheeks.

"Baby if I didn't want to be with you I would go find someone else. I love how you don't give a fuck about what others think. I love how you're so passionate and hardworking. I love how you always speak what's on your mind. I love how you show that you care through your actions. You don't have to be all lovey dovey and shit for me to love you, you love me in your own way."

I place my forehead on his, watching as more tears slip from his eyes. I trace his lips with my thumb, guiding them to collide with mine. We kiss vigorously, his passion and affection overwhelm me as I stumble back. He lays his hands on my back, steadying me in the process. I break away from the kiss, keeping our close proximity. He chases my lips, eyes pleading for me to kiss him once more. I accept his plea, leaning my lips to slam into his. While we kiss I mutter one last sentence to him.

"I love you because you're you."
