Katsuki and izuku are made for each other.
It’s something they discovered at their youngest age and their link only got stronger with time, until they created their agency “the wonder duo ”, they moved together, had an established relationship, and finally got married. It was the life they always dreamed and nothing could change that, after all, izuku was in love with katsuki and it was mutual, they were both ready to protect the other if something was happening and would die for the other.
They love their usual cozy morning when izuku puts his arms on the blond’s waist and puts his sleepy head on his shoulder, whispering a small “’morning ” as he kisses Katsuki's lips. Katsuki loved seeing how izuku still had the same awed eyes every time he was talking about something he liked or was interested in the blond’s fight and new attack. Izuku loved when katsuki was holding his hands secretly and the night was kissing them as they were the most important thing in his life, when he was telling him how lucky he was to have a human-like him and how much he cared about him. Izuku was often blushing to all these compliments and was giving them back as they have their communication, it was touches, kisses, and a lovely night. Of course, they would still have fought like the other couple but how can katsuki forget this one, the one where his life changed forever.
That night of July will always be in his mind, the night where he lost everything.
It was late when katsuki went back from the agency. He wanted to make a surprise for his riband and prepare a special surprise with his favorite food. The blond was enjoying cooking for the greenette and usually found him on the couch, watching some random tv shit but not his time.
This time katsuki was calling izuku but there were no answers, he was worried about what if something bad happened? What if izuku was captured by LOV? What if his husband was hurt?
Katsuki immediately threw off his stuff as he called izuku’s name everywhere but there was still no answer until he heard a small voice from the room.
Katsuki could hear the cold tone in his voice, he wasn’t often angry but from what he'd seen when he was angry it was for a good reason. The blond walks toward the room to find izuku sitting on their bed, looking at something on his screen while he walks closer to him.
Katsuki was touching his husband’s shoulder but izuku immediately stepped back as their eyes met and Katsuki's heart broke at the view. His usual green emerald happy eyes were now transforming into sobs and his eyes were red from tears, his body was shaking as he could barely control himself.
“Deku are you okay? What happens-”Katsuki was cut by izuku’s rough voice, he could hear the pain and the sadness in his voice
“DON’T TOUCH ME” He yells as katsuki’s face went pale
“Tell me, what happened why are you -”
Izuku gave him a cold glance “Why am I crying? You should know kacchan, you should know /exactly/ why…I trusted you and you fucking lied to me ”
Katsuki doesn’t understand what is happening? Why was Izuku crying because of what katsuki did and what could it be? He didn’t do anything wrong but he couldn’t ignore how his chest was at the view of his husband’s sobbing face and his broken voice. He wanted to do, as usual, take him in his arms and comfort him but he knew this would make things worse.
Izuku keep gibbing as he threw his phone to the blond’s eyes, mettant en Avant one message from Kirishima who just said « thanks for your help, we should do that more often »
Katsuki's beys went wide, he knew why. When they were in the first months of their relationship years ago, izuku was often jealous and katsuki comforted him that he was loving him and only him. Izuku wasn’t against the fact that Katsuki was still friends with his exes, even if it was strange the blond kept telling him that the only person he loved and will always love will be izuku. That’s what he promised to him when he married him, he never lied once, he was truly devoted to him and they both knew it until now.
“You understand now…kacchan tell me, did you call him? ”Izuku’s voice was shaking as he tried to take his breath back, looking at him and not hiding his painful face, he wanted to know the truth
“De-Izuku I -” Katsuki was trying to speak to him calmly, using a soft tone to comfort him and telling him he was a misunderstanding and he needed to listen to him izuku was stubborn and refuse to listen to him, instead he says
“Just answer me kacchan….did you call him? Just yes or no it’s not that fucking hard ” If a glare could kill, the blond will be already dead
Katsuki sighs, why does he need to lie after all? But there was a good explication, it’s not what izuku was thinking but only if he let him speak and explain “indeed, it’s him who called me but listen to me please -”
Izuku ignored how much his chest was in pain, he wanted to cry again, to scream at him for his betrayal, and no matter what he was gonna say he will never forget the way he was suffering. Instead, he just looks at him with a sad gaze as he whipped his tears and says “ I don’t need to hear more, I have my answer and you’ve said enough. I need to go outside and don’t wait for me ”
Katsuki's face went pale as he was trying to catch his husband’s arms and beg him to listen but all izuku could do was step back and give a sad gaze
“Can’t you see kacchan? Can’t you see you’re hurting me and you want me to listen to you? After I read this message, you want me to believe that you didn’t accept to spend the night with your exe just like he always wanted since we were together “ Izuku's voice was harsh and cold, his chest was boring and he wanted to insult and cheat on him. He knew this was going to happen but not /that/ early, not when we remarried two years later and were happy as ever. Izuku gave him his trust and all he had in exchange was a heartbroken heart, he didn’t need to hear more and was sure about what he'd seen.
“ Izuku I fucking beg you to listen to me! Why can’t you stop being so stubborn for once and let me explain, I didn’t spend the night with -” Katsuki was trying to defend himself, he knew the truth, he knew he didn’t betray his husband and loved him more than anything and he would never do that
“Don’t you dare say his name katsuki ” Izuku glances at him as he was taking his jacket and his key’s cars
“ I understand if you don’t want to listen to me but please, at least think about that and what I’m going to say alright ?… I would never do that and you know I love you, maybe more than anything, and how-how can you believe I would betray you, just stay and I’ll explain ”Katsuki sobbed as izuku’s face was cold, his eyes still red from the previous tears as he takes a deep breathe
“ Then you should say that to him, I’m done and I don’t need you to follow me” He says, slapping the door and leaving the house.
Katsuki was now all alone in the room, the scent of a burning katsudon in the kitchen filling the room as he let out a few sobs and couldn’t believe this was happening. He could catch him, he could stop him and force him to listen but he knew it would make things worse, especially with the cold gaze izuku was giving him the whole time. Yes, the misunderstanding was their thing but he never thought that they could go until /here/.
From the other side, izuku was turning the car on as he take a last glare at the house. He used to love entering here with his lovely husband and remember the first time they discovered it, promising each other things and how their Ferrier be bright, how together they could be stronger than everyone. Everything was fake, katsuki maybe love him but things lead to /this/ conversation and izuku sobbing in his car. Something in his chest was telling him it was wrong, that he should listen to him and not jump to conclusions but he refused to see his face again, knowing what he did and hearing him denying the truth. Izuku wanted to erase the way his mind was constantly playing the scenario of that night where katsuki cheated on him and all the things they’ve said to each other, it broke his heart more than it should as he was trying to calm himself. He wanted to drive and go somewhere else but here, he knew a place and he needed comfort, his mom’s house wasn’t far so he entered the address as he said goodbye to this place and the owner, to all the good memories linked to them.
The road was dark, hopefully, the small amount of light came from the headlights and the nightlife on the road. He didn't dare to put on background music as he wanted to go away, he ignored how katsuki was constantly sending him messages and calling him, declining everything. He wanted to be alone and with one mistake he missed the light as he turned red and ran into traffic. The greenette sighs as he noticed how he took the wrong turn and before turning his phone off one message catches his attention
I’m sorry, it’s not what you think and I love you. I truly love you izuku
Izuku ignores how his heart arches at the messages and his mind reminded him of his teary face of katsuki as he took the wrong road.
Everything happened faster
When izuku gave his eyes back to the road he didn’t notice he was going Into a wall near a gas station. His vision became blurry as he was hearing some voices around him, telling him to not give up and he was feeling his heart beating slowly until he was out of breath and all he could see was dark. He knew what was happening and yet the last thing he threw when he was dying was the smiling face of katsuki at their wedding and he promised to stay with him until the end. That’s when izuku realized that he was wrong the whole time but it was too late, he was already gone.
Katsuki was worried, his husband wasn’t answering any of his texts. He knew he fuked up when he should have kept him safe and he should have forced him, he was acting dumb to be weak and wanted him to take his distance.
That’s when he had a call hours later.
“ Hello, are you Katsuki Bakugo ? '' the voice on the other line asks in a small tone
Katsuki nods “yes that’s me ”
All he knew was that in the next seconds, his body was shaking and he couldn’t have enough strength to say something back, feeling tears on his cheeks
“I’m sorry but we found your husband bakugo izuku dead hours ago in traffic, next to a gas station ”The male voice was saying, he knew it was hard to hear but it was unbelievable.
No this couldn’t be real, not him. All he knew was that their last conversation was a fight where they were crying at each other and in the next scene he learned that izuku was dead. It was too late to come back but he let fall his phone in shook, his face was pale, unable to move from the shook as he was hearing the other’s man voice next to the line
“Mr. Bakugo, are you still here?”
Katsuki takes the phone shakily as he was trying his best to not show any sign of weakness “ye..yeah I’m here”
“I’m sorry for your lose ” was the last thing he heard was the call decline, leaving him alone in the living room. The burned katsudon on the table as he fell to his knees, who cares if someone was coming here and seeing him? His fucking husband died because of him, because of their fight and the blond was blaming himself because he didn’t catch him, he didn’t do enough to stop him from taking this car, and maybe if he did that, things will be different,…izuku will still be alive.
Katsuki kept sobbing, ignoring how his phone was showing a picture of izuku, smiling and alive. He couldn’t do this and was feeling destroyed, he wanted to scream, he hated himself and was thinking that all of this was his fault. The most important person in his life was gone by his fault, he will never be back and all these cozy mornings, sweet kisses, and the things they used to do will only stay as memories. He will never have morning kisses anymore, he will wake up next to an empty and cold bed, and he will be alone in this house lifeless with no sound of stupid giggles or comments made by his felled husband.
Now he was alone, all alone.
“I’m coming back kacchan ! ” izuku said happily as he was giving a fast kiss to the blond’s lips before taking his coat
“Where are you going, nerd? '' Katsuki asked as he was wondering why the nerd sounded so excited until he remember the date…it was their wedding anniversary
” i can’t make a surprise for my husband ? ” izuku laughed as he feels katsuki’s and ruffling his cheeks and grins
“Tch whatever, tonight is for /us/”he smiled as izuku’s cheeks became redder from the sudden blush
Izuku kissed him and waves happily as he closes the door, the blond rolls his eyes as he catches something on his phone. Indeed, he hadn’t contacted his ex for a long time and they were on good terms, when they broke up Kirishima and him agreed to stay friends and there was nothing bad because they were both in love with someone else. It was one of the rarest times when the redhead was texting him and he hesitated to call before accepted it
“Oi shitty heard why are you calling me ? ” he said with a nonchalant tone
“ Katsuki what a pleasure, you still sound lovely to hear, I hope midoriya survived with you ” Kirishima laughed from the other line
Katsuki grinned“ sorry to disappoint you but deku is happy with me dumbass, anyway spill it ”
He heard the other man sigh next to the line “ you know when we broke up, I told you I wasn’t in love with someone else right? Then I have great news for you. I'm going to propose to my girlfriend Mina! ”
Katsuki frowned“And you’re calling me just to say that? Congrats, I guess but why did you need daily help shitty head? ”
Kirishima sighed “well… know it sounds weird but I need your help. I knew his you proposed to Midoriya and how he sound so happy when he told everyone how you proposed and wanted to do the same for mina… that’s would be so manly ”
Katsuki rolled his eyes, yes he remembers when he proposed to deku. It was the best and the most stressful night of his life when he was shaking for no reason and making the greenette worry u until he finally did the stupid proposal they imagined when they were 4 and make izuku sob with happiness before saying yes and kissing him softly.
“The only thing I can say is…do what /she/ dream off, just ask her secretly with a general question about her childhood and that’s why I did with deku. Of course, I knew everything from him and his dream because we grew up together but you can do small things you know…shitty things such as things about small things she said once, giving her the attention she needs or even taking her to the place she always dreamed off..some kind of shit ”
On the other line, Kirishima said happily “oh my- Mirodiya made you sappy dude. Thanks for your help and I never thought you would be romantic, I hope you treat him well ”
Katsuki frowned“of fucking course I treat him he’s my husband idiot ”
The redhead sighed “anyway, I don’t have much time because she’s coming but thanks for your help bro! ”
Katsuki mumbled something as he declined the call, and waited until his husband came back hours later. The greenette jump into his arm and ceiling him with kisses as he was proudly smiling at him
“Oi why these sudden kisses nerd ” he smiled as izuku pulls his head on his chest and whispering
“Nothing, I just realized how lucky I am to have the best husband in the world and how much I love you ”
Katsuki smiled as he mumbled back “I love you too deku but are you going to be glued to me like a fucking koala idiot”
Izuku let out a small laugh “ no I won't leave, I want to stay in Kacchan's warmth! ”
Back to the present where katsuki was standing in front of Izuku's grave.
“I miss you izuku, every single moment.. please come back idiot ”
It’s crazy how one wrong turn can burn things to the ground.
Happy late birthday katsuki !
