Fallen Guardian

6. Excuse me ?

Ruby eyes stare back at the male in front of him in pure disbelief.

The words are swimming around inside his head.

The normally very vocal construction worker was now shocked into silence by the words and the sight of a car's front end twisted and bent around the greenett's hip and thigh.

He shakes his head suddenly like he's trying to get the sound of the words out of his mind because he could not have heard this correctly.

" Excuse me??! What the fuck did you just say?!", the blonde snaps taking a step forward.

Izuku sighs knowing how this might sound. He looks around seeing no one has really come to the scene yet and the driver looks passed out over the wheel. He decides this really isn't the place to talk about this.

" Kacchan I know you must be surprised but we really need to move away from here and talk someplace more private.", the greenett says as he pulls his leg away with ease leaving behind an actual imprint of his thigh on twisted metal.

Katsuki can see it, it's right in front of his eyes but he sure can't fucking believe it.

He scoffs running a hand through his hair now pacing slightly.

" I don't even know if I fucking want to, you have to be fucking insane to say something like that to me and then want me to go somewhere alone with you"

The words hit Izuku in the chest harder than he expected causing the sting of hurt feelings to swirl inside, a feeling foreign to him.

Pretty emerald eyes gain a look of sadness and Katsuki sees it, now a feeling of regret at the words he just spat is stinging like bees against his own insides.

Izuku takes a breath, emerald eyes on the ground.

" I .. I guess I can see how you might think that, but.. but I would never do anything to hurt you."

The blonde studies him and for whatever reason, he actually does believe that.

He turns his head with a tongue click.

" Tch fine. You have five goddamn minutes"

Izuku nods as he follows behind the blonde stepping into a quiet ally.

Katsuki leans against the wall arms crossed.

" I'm fucking listening"

Izuku takes a breath.

"As I said, I'm a Guardian, yours to be exact"

Katsuki shakes his head.

" No fucking way I don't believe that bullshit. Angels and shit don't exist"

The greenett nods eyes still downcast before he raises them to meet rubies.

" Then how would you explain what I just did?"
.
Katsuki isn't sure what to say at first because honestly, he has no goddamn idea but this can't be it.

He pushes himself off the wall with an angry huff beginning to pace again.

" I don't fucking know. Maybe you have a steal plate in your leg or something but no way you're some...some. .. Guardian"

Emerald eyes stared back with hurt rising. This too was one of the reasons to never get close or reveal yourself to a charge, pain.

" I am tho. Part of you knows it if you let yourself think about it hard enough and open your mind. The other day when you said you felt like someone was with you when things happen that you couldn't explain that .. that was me"
