A night to remember (Patreon)

Its been a while since you two had a fight
Its been even longer since the last time he had thrown something
And its been a long time since you called him a narcissistic manchild
So you left right then and there
You were furious but sadly this wasn’t super rare
Atleast it was a warm summer night
So you diddnt have to worry about the cold or getting wet
You had walked for what felt like hours through the streets of Kamino ward
Occasionally stopping by a ramen shop to eat something
You quirk
Grendel
Required constant caloric intake while allowing you to spew your stomach acid at command
It was gross but the acid was strong enough to temporarely blind opponents and just corrosive enough to damage metals
Making you a walking lock pick for security doors
Your feet had begun hurting from your endless walking
Head hung low you tried your best to not start crying
How did you evne end up like this
Your relationship with your pro hero boyfriend started so good
You were so consumed by your sulking that you diddnt notice the big lanky figure infront of you until your head hit something warm and soft
“Wow wow …” you heard a familiar voice
“Hey Beowulf whats wrong?”
Beowulf
That was your hero name
It seemed fitting with your quirk
And that unmistakable voice
Belonged to the number 2 hero deku
Your tear filled eyes looked up into his kind green once
“You are crying” he said in a worried tone
“do you need a hug? What happened?”
Deku was always such a dork
Your boyfriend and him were bitter rivals
For reasons still unknown to you
Infact bakugou despised the number 2 hero so much he had forbidden you to talk to him unless he was present
This seemed to be a once in a lifetime chance
“I had a fight with bakugou”
Deku combed through his hair and sighed
“yeah kacchan can get quite angry over nothing sometimes”
For a moment you two just awkwardly stood there
“I need a drink” you groaned and deku smiled
“It just so happen that there is a great bar nearby”
He almost sounded too excited
“I don’t have any money with me thought” you said trying to sound as sweet as possible
He sighed cartoonishly
“well eh I guess I can let you borrow some”
You gave him a bright smile
“anyways just follow me”
He lead you through the nightly streets of kamino ward which all of a sudden seemed much less oppressive
The bar deku promised you turned out to be street bar and he seemed to be a regular
“hey tomoko!” he greeted the woman currently working
She seemed to be in her 40`s
Over a radio 80`s music played very quietly
And after you two ordered deku spoke up
“so what happened?”
You scratched the back of your head before answering
“Every topic we talk about seems to be related to him … and whenever I have a problem its him who gets annoyed”
You sighed
“Do you get what I mean?”
Deku made a noise somewhere between a groan and a thoughtful “hmm”
“I guess? Maybe?” he finally said
You groaned
“what I mean is he can bother me with any crap but I dare to have a problem myself its like the apocalypse has just started”
Your drinks arrived
And you thanked tomoko who gave you a motherly smile before she moved on to the next customer
The drink burned your throat
And left your brain lovingly clouded
“this is some really good stuff” you mumbled
And deku grinned
“I always go here after difficult interviews with the press since this place is so small and somewhat secluded” the bar was sandwiched in an ally between a yoga studio and an office building
“I can enjoy some semi solitude” he leaned forward and whispered
“also Tomoko reminds me of my mom sometimes so I leave some extra tip money” he winked and returned to a more comfortable sitting postion
“anyways we were talking about your relationship problems”
You looked at your hands
Feeling bad that you had to talk about your relationship problems
You really needed to blow off some steam
At first you wanted to cut bakugou some slack
And only talked about minor nit picks
But over time you began ranting
And as you kept going and going you slowly began to realize the root of your issues
Katsuki was just way to hot headed and self centered
You hadn’t even realized that you had started crying
Then you felt a warm hand gently pressing on your shoulder
As you looked up all you could see was the warm smile deku was giving you
“things like this happen im sure you will make the right choice in the end”
Up until now you diddnt even realize there was a choice to be made
But now it was so obvious to you
“deku?” you asked
“are you single?”
You could see his shoulders tense up
And his cheeks flushed
“well no … not really … just female friends but no girlfriend” he stuttered
Such a dork you thought with a smug smile
“look” he started
“I don’t want you to think I invited you to this be-because I want to make you break up with kacchan”
This really wasn’t his intention at first
But while you were laying down your issues
He thought about how much better you deserved
This better not nessecarily being him but he would welcome it
Now that he thought about it
You giggled
“I wasn’t thinking that not one bit” you reassured him
And smiled
“but” you paused
“do you want to know the one thing that agitates to no end”
He tilted his head
“he went from saying I love you to saying and me you and then I know”
While you were still smileing a hot tear ran down your cheek
“I don’t want to look like im overly sensitive but when you say I love you to someone and all they say is I know it feels devastateing especially since I know myself that I don’t have the constitution to say it to him should he ever say I love you”
You sniffled
“I keep telling myself its because he is under a lot of stress but atleast give me the time of day to say I love you too why is that too much to ask since when is that too much to ask why cant I be inconvenient why do I always have to function I am a pro hero too for goodness sake and I can do this”
You went quiet and eventually deku spoke up
“was this the reason for your fight tonight?”
You nodded
“I feel unloved and I feel guilty for feeling unloved”
He gently embraced you
And you leaned into him
His green hair smelled like vanilla
While still holding you he asked
“you two are a thing since the end of high school right?”
You nodded into his shoulder
“do you want to know something”
He chuckled
“for a very long time I had a crush on you but I was too scared to ask you out since you were always hanging around with bakugou and his clique”
Memories of your time at UA flooded your mind
Tender moments with both him and bakugou
And you coudlnt help but compare them
“deku… I don’t want to be alone tonight”
You eagerly awaited his answer
“me neither” he whispered into your ear
This was certainly turning into a night to remember
