Perfect doesn't mean it's working/ceilings
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You and katsuki were together for 4 years, one day laying in bed as he sits next to you, confesses he's fallen out of love with you, and fallen for someone else.
Angst, heartbroken reader, confessions of a broken heart.
---------------------------------------
You were lying in bed staring at the ceiling, thinking of katsuki. Your katsuki. 4 years of being madly in love with someone you connected with automatically still felt like a dream and all the times you've pinched yourself thinking it was one, he was still there.
Until one day, he wasn't.
My hero❤️: hey babe, are you busy? Wanted to talk to you about something.
Y/n: hey babe!!!! Of course I'm not busy. I never am when it comes to you.
My hero❤️: alright, cool babe. Be there in 5
Y/n: can't wait 😘
-------------------------------------------------------
Katsuki arrives at your door, hesitating to text you that hes here. He doesn't want to break you're heart but he doesn't wanna be unhappy either. As much as it's hard for him to send you that text, he pulls through.
My love❤️: I'm here.
Y/n: YAYYY! coming!
You immediately jump out of the bed, run to the door, almost tripping in the process. Heart racing a mile a minute, no matter how many times you see katsuki, you feel so many butterflies because of this man.
You unlock the door, squeeling when you see katsuki. Bringing him in for a hug, you realize he isn't giving that same energy back.
"Kats? What's wrong?" You look at him with sad eyes. Katsuki, hands sweaty and looking at the ground, unable to look at you. "Babe. Can we talk?"
You look at katsuki, feeling the nerves now. You nod your head yes and let him come inside. You both go to the bedroom, and you lie on the bed. Staring at the ceiling.
"What's up baby? What do you need to talk about? Is everything okay?" You say, all the while picking at the black nail polish on your fingernails. Katsuki takes a deep breath, staring at you looking at the ceiling. He feels almost relieved when you don't look at him, as tears start to form in his eyes. This, he thinks, is the worst thing hes ever gonna do. It's not that he doesn't love you, but it's better he do it person than in text.
"I...I want to break up" he says, heart pounding harder like it did when he first saw you.
The eyes that were just on the ceiling rip away to look at katsuki, hoping he was joking. You giggle, and lightly punch his arm. "Kats, that's not a funny joke" you say, still giggling. God, why this have to be so hard? Why did you have to be created to look so amazing? That, he doesn't think anything will ever answer for that question.
His face is serious, lips in a straight line, nothing about him is at all joking. You quickly sit up, eyes never leaving katsuki. You're hoping katsuki will laugh and say "Just kidding babe! YOU JUST GOT PPRAANKEEDDD", but as the minutes pass by, you notice the tears spilling from his eyes.
"I can't believe this.." You scoff, looking away from katsuki only to look back at the ceiling, trying to hold back tears.
There was a long pause, the silence becoming intimidating. Only for katsuki to speak up.
"I'm sorry y/n..I just don't have the same feelings for you like I used to. And I know that makes me sound like an asshole, but-"
You cut him off, anger filled eyes.
"your sorry?! 4 years katsuki, 4 YEARS. Only for you to end it just like this?! Why..." the tears are never ending, eyes staring at katsuki.
"Look, we both knew it would end this way.. didn't you notice the way I was acting differently around you?"
Oh, this made you furious. Is he serious?
"You may have been acting differently katsuki, but I've never once lost love for you! How DARE you hurt me like this? And not tell me the moment you knew it wasn't going to last? Why did you keep leading me on, thinking you were happy?! We were supposed to tell eachother how we felt, if we needed to talk to one another, we'd make the time!" You sobbed, shaking from how hurt you were and how betrayed you felt.
Katsuki ran his fingers through his hair, the same hair you used to play with when he slept over everytime he had a long night from his hero work.
"Listen, you know I love you"
You scoffed and rolled your eyes.
"But people fall out of love, it's not something I can control. I wish I could, I've tried to keep on loving you but it just...wasn't the same feeling."
"Is there someone else?" You ask him, wiping the tears from your face, makeup smeared.
Katsuki chuckled and looked away, unable to answer the question.
Realization hit you, and you remember the one time you hung out with Mina and uraraka, playing games and catching up. You went to go talk to Mina, leaving katsuki with uraraka, not realizing he'd look at her the way he used to look at you.
"So that's it.." You say, heart so broken, it feels like you're not alive. "You've fallen in love with someone else..."
"Y/n..I'm so sorry. Just because it's perfect, doesn't mean it's working"
You couldn't even look at him, too hurt to continue the heartbreaking conversation.
"Leave" you said, biting your lip.
Katsuki furrowed his eyebrows, alittle hurt by you telling him to leave.
"Y/n..."
"JUST GO BAKUGO!"
Katsuki flinched when you used his first name, he's only heard you say his first name when you got upset when he'd say something that hurt you, even then, he'd hold you telling you he was sorry and didn't mean it. This time, its really the end.
He looked at you for a moment, a broken girl he once loved with all he had, who he'd do anything for back then.
He nodded, and got up to leave, footsteps louder than they used to be.
You look up, and see him walking out the door. Still sitting on the bed, hands on your lap, tears still falling.
"Just know, she'll never love you the way I did. Don't ever contact me again, even when I've met someone and we cross paths. Don't dare to look in my direction"
Katsuki felt his heart break at the thought of you meeting someone, being around someone else, kissing someone that wasn't him. But he had already ripped the bandaid off, he wanted to atleast ask you to text him from time to time to see how you are, how you're holding up. But he knew that would cause too much pain, not only for him, but for you as well.
"I bid you goodbye, good luck with everything" you said, looking away from him.
Katsuki walked out of the bedroom, never looking back as he closed the door to your apartment.
You never thought this day would come, but good things never last, you think to yourself.
"I'll be okay, I'll miss you so much but I have to let you go. Even if it means to see you happy" you say to no one, remembering all the memories from the past 4 years with the love you lost.
"Time heals all things, even broken hearts"
That night, you stayed up until you passed out from exhaustion, scared to sleep for the dreams you have will be of katsuki and you, at the beach, katsuki chasing you while you play scream as the sun begins to set. Dreams better than reality, but then again, things are gonna be okay.
