CHWHWN: 05. December - "shine your shoes"
Kacchan: *image attached* I swear, you get creepier every day Deku: because I want to clean your shoes? Kacchan: That's just the tip of the iceberg Why are you doing this? Deku: Tomorrow is Saint Nicholas. And I have stuff: *image attached* Kacchan: thought the whole point is that it's supposed to be a surprise Deku: You HATE surprises! *Image deleted* Kacchan: YOU hate cleaning Deku: maaaaaaw just sometimes. depends, rly Just leave them by your room door Kacchan: my shoes?! Deku: yup bet your not the only one Kacchan: TF Shitty hairs shoes are also outside. Deku: I have a lot to share.. Kacchan: So its you? YOU do this every year? Deku: Yep. Kacchan: Really Deku: Yes (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ Kacchan: nerd gimme more of those peanutstuffed things this year Deku: haha alrighty!
Kacchan: they're outside.
Again, he waited a few more seconds, but the conversation seemed to be over. He turned onto his stomach and stared at his cell phone, then at his countless posters.
Sure, just wanting to shine someone's shoes was 'creepy' in its own way. But considering that Kacchan had avoided this tradition for the two years they had lived here in the dorms… some people had to be forced into their happiness.
His own shoes were already in front of the door. The question was: why, if he was the elf who stuffed sweets into his friends' shoes in the morning hours? The explanation was simple.
Nobody knew.
Except Kacchan. And him.
Sharing secrets with him was… something Izuku enjoyed more than he maybe should.
Dislike, rejection or whatever else existed, blossomed or built up between them, Izuku knew one thing in every situation of life: Kacchan could keep secrets.
His secrets.
No matter how big or small they seemed to be.
In return, he would give him a whole pack of the 'peanut stuffed things'. And a little more. Plus, there had to be some advantages to knowing the Elf of the House.
