The Troubled Doctor

2: Letter

3rd person pov:

Izuku walks up. His gaze meets bakugou's for only a moment. Katsuki looks away and izuku smiles.

"It's been awhile Hasn't it kacchan?"

Bakugou grits his teeth before speaking.

"After class, we need to talk."

"Very well. Where do you want to meet? Maybe the roof?"

"No! No let's meet in the men's room across from class. Shifty hair will be there as a witness if that'll help."

Izuku thinks to himself and gets lost in thought.

^Does kacchan blame himself for what happened? I can see how that's possible.^"I wouldn't blane him. It's not like he was behind me when it happened. Infact his words gave me a reason to fight again. A reason to prove something to him-"

"DEKU! Your mutter drowning again. Glad to see you haven't changed. Though the quirk is new."

"Yeah, funny story. I'll tell you later. Right now I have to prep for your after lunch class."

With a wave to bakugou and a bow to the class. Izuku leaves with aizawa to the medical wing of the school.

Kirishima:"Hey man, how do you know izuku?"

Mina:"And what's with the nicknames? Wait were you both lovers!?"

Baku:"Don't jump the gun fujoshi. We're just old childhood friends. Well we use to be anyway."

Iida:"LESS TALKING AND MORE EATING. LUNCH IS ALMOST OVER. NEED I REMIND YOU THAT SNACKS ARE FORBIDDEN DURING CLASS!"

Denki:"Yes mom~ heheh!"

Iida begins to lecture denki while wildly chopping his hand onto Denki's head.

Kiri:"bakubro there's something else I wanna know. About him needing a witness."

Baku:"Just be there and stop asking so many damn questions."

"Fine, but you owe me something else in return."

"Tch whatever."

Bakugou said with a flustered expression.

Lunch passes by and class 1A is going to the training hall. Where izuku waits under a tent with recovery girl, and mic. While aizawa helps train the students to rely on their strength and not just the quirks. Izuku watches while writing notes about fighting styles, quirks, drawbacks, and possible tratigies to improve their capabilities. Everything goes well until a fight breaks out between Bakugou's friends and Shoto's.

Shoto:"Bakugou calm down. sui was just joking. We all know you have a soft side."

Bakugou:"Calling me a villian wasn't a very funny joke. There's a reason I acted that way during the sports festival!"

Ururaka:"We don't because you never open up to us!"

Iida:"If something is on your mind. You can trust us to always have your back no matter what!"

Izuku steps between them.

Baku:"Deku stand back. I'm gonna teach these extras a lesson."

Izuku:"To be a hero. You must trust those who are willing to shed blood beside you. Tell them and I'll have your back aswell kacchan."

"Why? Why help me when I hurt you?"

"It's because you're my friend. I was in pain, but now I've healed. Now may I help heal you?"

Bakugou goes to run away,  but izuku grabs his shoulder. Pulling him close to hide his face.

"It's okay, no one here will think on you differently. You're still a number one friend and comrad."

Minetta:"what a crybaby."

Mina runs from behind Minette and kicks him across the room like a pro soccer player. While bakugou breaks down and cries. That's when izuku calls kirishima over.

Izuku:"he's all yours red riot."

With a wink and smile. Izuku walks back to his station.

Kiri:"tell me midoriya. How did you know? We haven't told anyone yet."

"Kacchan doesn't trust just anyone to have his back."
