"What's up Bakubro?" Kirishima asked while sitting in Bakugo's desk chair in his room.
"I have to tell you something." Bakugo muttered while looking to the ground.
"Okay?" Kirishima questioned.
"You can't tell anyone. I mean anyone!" Bakugo threatened as sweat rolled off his forehead.
"Okay dude, I won't." Kirishima said while showing his hand in surrender.
"I don't know how to say it.." Bakugo muttered while looking down.
"Just rip the bandaid off."
"I'm gay." Bakugo spat while looking to the ground. Kirishima looked to his best friend in shock.
"That's it?" Kirishima asked with a chuckle. "Why would we care that you're gay? Almost nobody here is straight." Kirishima laughed.
"That's not all you idiot." Bakugo snapped.
"What else is there?" Kirishima asked him nervously. He had never seen Bakugo like this before. He was twirling his thumbs with a bright red face.
"I-I'm seeing someone." Bakugo breathed out fast. Did he just stutter? Kirishima asked himself. The red head stared at the blonde in shock.
"Say something you idiot." Bakugo spat.
"I-I just don't know what to say." Kirishima said while looking to the ground. "I didn't know you were looking for a relationship."
"Tch. I wasn't."
"W-who?" Kirishima asked. He was almost certain he knew what he was going to say, but he had to ask anyway. Bakugo took a deep sigh while running his hand through his slightly damp hair.
"Deku." Bakugo whispered while looking to the ground.
"I have so many questions." Kirishima said while moving closer to Bakugo. "But my first one is, why do you look so sad about it?" Bakugo's head snapped up at the question. "Is it because you don't want to be with him?" Kirishima asked nervously.
"It's not that." Bakugo groaned while leaning back in his bed. "I really care about him." Bakugo groaned. "I just think he could do better is all." Kirishima smiled at his friend. Did he really just say that there was someone better than him?
"When did you guys get together?" Kirishima asked.
"That is where things get a little complicated." Bakugo said while sitting up. "I messed up." Bakugo said while looking to the ground.
"How?"
"I got myself a punch from half n half." Bakugo muttered.
"D-did you b-break them up?" Kirishima asked in disbelief.
"No! Kind of." Bakugo groaned while pulling his hair. "They weren't officially dating." Bakugo groaned. "When Deku came over to talk about our fight, I kissed hin when everything was all said and done. I beat myself up for hours after he left. I really did. Half and Half left him. Deku didn't tell him about the kiss just yet. He saw how confused Deku was about his feelings, so he left. I did have a part to play in that I guess."
"So when did Todoroki punch you?"
"Right before you guys left. Deku and him had a small talk. Deku told him he kissed someone else.. but he wouldn't say who. I stepped up and took responsibility for my bullshit. He punched me." Bakugo shrugged nonchalantly. "He wasn't mad that I kissed him while they were talking. He was mad that I messed with Deku's feelings."
"So the breakup was kind of mutual?" Kirishima asked confused.
"Kind of. I mean, Half and Half was the one to call it off. Deku however, agreed with the whole thing." Bakugo replied.
"So you guys did make up that day?" Kirishima asked. Bakugo only nodded his head in response. "Why did you tell everyone you guys weren't getting along then?"
"We didn't know what to say. I wasn't really ready to tell the world my past with him. So we didn't tell anyone."
"When did you guys get together?" Kirishima asked, causing Bakugo to blush.
"On the hike." Bakugo replied recalling his memory of that day. How in the world does he still have butterflies in his stomach?
"Three weeks ago?" Kirishima questioned while standing up. "You're just now telling me?" He asked with hurt in his voice.
"Don't take it personal idiot." Bakugo grumbled. "We didn't tell anyone. You're the first to know. Well he's telling round face and glasses."
"Your parents don't know?" Kirishima questioned.
"No. Nobody else is to know. Him and I talked about it and decided to tell two people we really trust." Bakugo said in embarrassment.
"Why not just tell everyone?" Kirishima asked confused.
"The League of Villians." Bakugo replied coldly.
"I'm confused." Kirishima muttered while scratching his head.
"Of course you are." Bakugo spat. "They want to brainwash me into joining them." He said simply. "They want Deku dead." He said with anger. "If they know we are together, they will use that to their advantage."
"How so?" Kirishima asked.
"If they capture one of us, they know the other will come running. We can't afford that. We can't afford for one of us to be blackmailed for the safety of the other." Kirishima smirked at his best friend.
"So you are saying that if Midoriya got captured, you would risk everything to save him?" Kirishima asked with a smirk.
"O-of course I would idiot." Bakugo replied with a deep blush.
"You really care about him, don't you?" Kirishima asked with a small smile. He was incredibly happy for his best friend.
"Tch."

"What's up Deku?" Uraraka asked while joining her best friend on the bed.
"First, how was the rest of your guys' summer?" Midoriya asked with a nervous smile.
"It was really really good." Uraraka said happily with a red face. Midoriya looked up to her, then at Iida. Iida had his hands on his knee's while staring at the ground.
"Are you guys okay?" Midoriya questioned while looking between the two.
"We actually have something we need to tell you." Iida said with a small smile.
"Okay? What's up?" Midoriya questioned with confusion.
"Well.. you were gone and we missed you and everything. We started to hang out a lot and one thing led to another.." Midoriya tried his best to listen to his mumbling friend. "Iida and I are dating now." She blurted out while looking down to the bed. Midoriya looked between the two with confusion before a big smile spread on his face.
"That's amazing guys!" He said happily. Uraraka and Iida looked up to him in shock. "I'm really happy for you guys! How long ago did this happen?"
"A-about a week ago." Uraraka replied with disbelief.
"Y-you're not mad?" Iida questioned.
"Why would I be mad?" Midoriya asked sadly.
"We just didn't know if you were hurting over Todoroki or not.." Uraraka's voice trailed off.
"That's actually what I wanted to talk to you guys about.. well sort of." Midoriya chuckled awkwardly. He looked between his two best friends before taking a deep breathe.
"Uraraka, you kind of already know what was going on." He mumbled while she shook her head in response.
"Todoroki and I broke up because my heart wasn't in the right place." He mumbled. "It was with someone else."
"Bakugo?" Uraraka questioned. Iida looked at Midoriya in shock as the green haired man nodded his head.
"We made up the day before you guys left. We actually decided to put the hatred of the past behind us and be friends." Midoriya explained.
"Why didn't you tell us?" Iida questioned.
"You know Kaachan and his pride and ego." Midoriya smiled nervously. "He wasn't quite ready to tell everyone we were actually friends and getting along."
"Is he ashamed of you?" Iida asked with concern.
"No. He was nervous of everyone's response. He doesn't want anyone to look down on him like he's soft."
"Continue with the story."
"Uraraka, you know my feelings were cloudy about Todoroki in the beginning.. but what really confused me was.. Kaachan. He kissed me." Midoriya mumbled while a huge blush spread across his cheeks. Uraraka looked back slightly surprise. Iida on the other hand, looked like his eyes were going to pop out of his sockets.
"Is that why you and Todoroki broke up?" Iida asked still in shock.
"We were never really together. We were talking, but kind of. Afted Kaachan did that, it just confused me more. So Todoroki and I called it quits before it hurt us even more. We are still friends and everything.. but I couldn't be with him." Midoriya mumbled sadly. "Kaachan and I.. well.. we're kind of dating now." Midoriya said quickly before looking down. The room was filled with an awkward silence for a few moments before someone finally spoke up.
"When did you two get together?" Uraraka asked.
"On our hike." Midoriya replied while looking up. "We aren't telling anybody else though." He said with a small forced smile.
"Why not?" Iida asked.
"We are only telling people we trust not to slip up and say anything. So I am telling you two and he is telling Kirishima."
"Why not tell the whole class? You know you can trust everyone, plus you two won't have to sneak around." Uraraka said with confusion.
"We will tell everyone, once The League of Villians is gone."
"What do they have to do with this?" Uraraka questioned.
"We don't want them to use us against each other." Midoriya said with a frown. "We don't want them to try to capture one of us to get the other to come. We don't want them to capture one of us and blackmail the other with our safety. It is just safer at the moment if we don't tell anyone." Midoriya explained.
"If that is what you want, of course we won't tell anyone." Uraraka said with a small smile.
"Thank you guys." Midoriya said as tears formed in his eyes. He was so lucky to have so many amazing people in his life that cared about him.
"Does he treat you right?" Iida asked. Midoriya looked to him in shock.
"Surprisingly, yeah." Midoriya said with a wide smile.
"And you're happy with him?" Iida questioned. Midoriya didn't even need to think about this one.
"Of course I am." He smiled brightly.
"Then let's get The League of Villian's destroyed so you guys can be happy in public!" Iida yelled with determination in his eyes before raising his fist in the air.
"Y-you g-guys!" Midoriya cried out before pulling both of his best friends into a giant hug.
