《The Bookstore》Chapter 11

"What are you doing here?" Izuku asks looking up at Katsuki with a confused look on his face.
Katsuki was panting at the door with his hands on his knees, he finally spoke up and said, "I saw you running like a maniac with the kid in your arms and I wanted to check if he was ok."
"Hey, I'm not a kid. And plus I'm the same age as you," Akios pouts.
"Yeah yeah whatever," Katsuki says walking over to Akio, "Are you ok?"
"Yeah i'm fine, Zuzu just freaked out because he accidentally broke my nose," he explains, "It's not even that big of a deal, you're probably really busy with your hero work and stuff."
"Yes, yes it is a big deal and what did I say about calling me Zuzu," Izuku says glaring daggers at him.
"No, no it's fine, I just got off my shift anyways," Katsuki says, "Plus I have to make sure you are ok. That's what heroes do too."
Of course that was a lie, Katsuki didn't get off until 4 and it was 9 in the morning.
Izuku saw straight through the lie but he didnt care, what better way to make up for Akios broken nose than to have his favorite pro hero there with him?
"Alright whatever, we have to wait 30 minutes until the doctor sees him," Izuku personally didn't want to be there so he had to make up an excuse just to leave the two of them together, "Ummm so I'm hungry, we didn't have breakfast this morning right? Ok, there's a cafe nearby. I'm gonna go and grab something for us to eat. Katsuki do you want anything?"
Katsuki shook his head.
He was kind of disappointed to see Izuku trying to avoid him but there wasn't anything he could do about it, maybe he could get to know his roommate.
As soon as Izuku left the place Akio quickly turned towards Katsuki with a crazed look on his face.
"You like Izuku don't you," Akio says smirking.
Katsukis eyes widened, 'how did he know? Was it that obvious?' He thought to himself.
"Ppffft no, of course not," Katsuki says.
He feels his face heating up and he was unable to look the other boy in the eyes.
"Oh my gosh its so fucking obvious, why else would you lie about the fact that you just got off your shift. Its 9 in the morning for fuck sakes!" Akios points out, "And plus your face is completely red when I brought it up."
"Ok! Ok! Fine! Maybe I do now lower your fucking voice before anyone hears you," Katsuki whisper shouts, "Its not like it matters, he hates me! I would hate me especially after what I've done to him in middle school."
"Oh so you are aware you're the reason that he's deaf."
Katsukis eyes widened, before he wasn't sure if it was him or not but now he was sure.
He ruined Izukus life.
It was his fault he's deaf.

"Telling from the look on your face I think that I've accidentally told you something I shouldn't have. Am I right?" He asks slightly wanting to punch himself in the nose again for accidentally spilling the beans.
"So it is true…" Katsuki mutters, "That must be why he switched schools, this is mostly all my fault. Maybe if I was nicer we would be married with three kids and a pet chinchilla named Mark-"
"God will you be quiet, you're muttering more than Izuku does," Akios flinches when he accidentally hits his hand on his nose, "And I doubt Izuku would ever let you name a chinchilla Mark. Oh yeah, Izuku also hates children so don't plan on having any of those in your future."
"That's not the point ok? I regret everything I did to him when we were younger and I want to apologize. But… but…"
"But you don't know how to because your entire life you've always had other people apologize for you," Akio states.
"Wha- what?"
"I've been a big fan of you since the very beginning. Remember about a month after you became a pro you were in a fight with a villain. The villain had knocked you into a crowd and you landed on a woman, you were so caught up in the fight you didn't even check if she was ok. In fact you didn't even notice she was there. She ended up breaking 4 ribs, an arm, and a concussion. When the fight was over the underground hero Eraserhead came over and apologized for you and took her to the hospital."
"How do you know all of this?" Katsuki asked.
"Because I was supposed to be the one that was going to get hit. I was in the crowd that day. The woman saw you flying towards us and she pushed me out of the way. I saw what had happened first hand, I stopped liking you for a while. I watched all of your fights on TV still though. I noticed that you became less and less reckless and you became nicer. That when I started liking you again. You still can't apologize for yourself though."
Katsuki knew he had injured someone in that fight, he told himself that he was going to apologize afterwards but the fight was so long that over time he had forgotten all about her.
"Ummm, Mr. Miyazaki? Someone cancelled their appointment last minute so you can see the doctor now," a nurse said, interrupting Katsuki's train of thought.
Akio gets up and starts walking towards the nurse but stops, he turns around and finally says, "Learn to apologize on your own. Take your time and choose your words carefully. Izuku will most likely accept your apology, after that you can plan your wedding."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The door rings behind Izuku as he leaves Katsuki and Akio alone.
He took out his cell phone and texted his boss as he was walking to the cafe.
He had to explain why he wasn't there in hopes he doesn't lose his job.

This wasn't the first time he had been late or absent from work.
He relies on Akio to wake him up each morning because sleeping with hearing aids is uncomfortable.
Sometimes Akios dumbass will forget to set his alarm and the two of them will just keep on sleeping until noon or something.
He enters the cafe and waits in line, he sees a familiar face standing right in front of him, pro hero Chargebolt.
Izuku was going to throw some hands for what he did to Kirishima.
No he was going to do much more than that, he's gonna bust his kneecaps and make sure he doesn't walk again.
That bastard thinking he could just hurt Kirishima like that and get away with it.
Nope, not on his watch.
Izuku taps on Kaminari's shoulder causing the blond to take his eyes off his phone.
"Oh hi, um are you a fan," he asks smiling, "I can give you an autograph if you want?"
"I'm a big fan of yours Mr. Charge Bolt, what I'm not a big fan of, was what you did to Kirishima," Kaminari looked at Izuku confused, before he could say anything Izuku threw a punch at Kaminari.
Kaminari being a pro hero managed to dodge it, Izuku grabbed his arm and flipped him over onto the ground, he straddles him as he lands a couple punches on his face.
Kaminari was completely confused as to why this random person was acting this way. He had forgotten he had a quirk.
He was going to use it but someone else in line grabbed the green haired man off of him and held him by his arms.
Izuku struggled as the person behind him held him back, hoping the guy didnt turn around and start kicking him.
After a while of struggling Izuku finally stops and just glares at Kaminari with a sneer.
Kaminari now had a black eye and blood streaming down his nose and Izuku realized that he went a little overboard.
"Uh-" Kaminari says but starts coughing.
"Now why would someone so cute want to randomly attack me?" He asks, smirking, he seemed unfazed by his sudden attack.
Maybe it was because he had been through much worse.
"Are you trying to fucking flirt with me?" Kaminari shrugs, "Now tell me Freckles, why did you do that?"
"I did that for Kirishima you little shit." Izuku growls, Kaminaris smile falters as he realizes what the other man has said.
The truth was even after talking to Bakugou, Kaminari still couldn't build up the courage to talk to Kirishima.
"Oh, um," was all Kaminari could say.
The man at the cash register suddenly spoke up, "Charge Bolt, should I call the police? The man might be a criminal and we don't know his quirk."
Just for that Izuku wanted to pumble the guy into the ground but he restrained himself.
"No, leave it alone, this is more personal business," Kaminari says, turning towards Izuku.
"Look I don't know Kirishima said to you um," Kaminari started.
"Izuku."
"Yeah ok, Izuku, I don't know what Kirishima told you but it's all a misunderstanding," Kaminari says rubbing the back of his neck.
Izuku frowned and asked, "alright, if this is all a misunderstanding then tell me what part I'm getting wrong here."
"So basically you and Kirishima fucked right?" Midoriya starts, Kaminari nods his head, "and you dont talk to him for what 2 weeks and finally when you talk you break his fucking heart by telling him that you regretted it?!" Izuku was yelling at this point, his face was all red and he looked as if he was going to attack him again.
Izuku takes a deep breath and waits for Kaminari to say something.
A couple seconds go by and Kaminari finally speaks, "I-i don't know."
"What do you mean 'I dont know?'" Izuku mimicked.
"I don't know what to do, I regret telling that and I want to apologize but I dont have the balls," Kaminari says sniffling, he was now crying.
"The fucking grow some then!" Izuku yells, a lady nearby in the cafe covered her son's ears.
"How the fuck does Kirishima even like you? He's always talking about manly shit and here you are blubbering to a person you just met when you could just man up and apologize already."
"Here, I have a question." Kaminari looks up at Izuku with red eyes, "what is it?"
"Do you like him?" Izuku asks.
"Yes, more than anything," Kaminari sniffles.
"Then what the hell is keeping you back?"
"Well it's because my last relationship ended terribly, Shinsou cheated on me,"
'Wait Shinsou? Like Hitoshi Shinsou? The same one I hooked up with like a half a year ago? Shit, I'm I a fucking homewrecker aren't I? Shinsou didn't even say anything about being in a relationship.'
"U-uh, if you don't mind when did you guys break up?"
"Uhh last April I think, why?"
'Oh shit. I am a homewrecker.'
"Anyways that's not the problem here, I'm just afraid to lose Kirishima if I get too close to him. I also don't want to ruin our friendship." Kaminari says with a sad tone.
"Ok well just apologize and see what happens after that," Izuku says as the two of them got to the front of the line, "and here, let me pay for whatever you're buying, it's the least I can do for giving you a black eye."
'And sleeping with your ex.'
"Thanks man, I'm going to work this out with Kirishima, wish me luck." Kaminari says grabbing the drink and walking out the door.
Izuku grabs the cinnamon rolls and coffees he ordered and walks back to the hospital.
He was going to have to scream about this to Kirishima later, of course leaving out the fact that he pummeled the shit out of his soon-to-be-boyfriend.
He walked into the hospital where Akio and Katsuki were talking, Akio had kind of a sad look in his eyes as he walked away with the nurse.
Katsuki waves at Izuku as he sat down next to him and handed him a cinnamon roll.
"Here, I bought two. You said you didn't want any but I got an extra just in case."
