Reconciliation

Katsuki Bakugou 

(Angst)

I didn't bother letting anyone know I was leaving. It was late at night anyway and my parents were more than likely asleep. Denki lived only a few blocks away. The drive to his house would only take five minutes but I found myself rushing. Why was I nervous? The quiet hum of my car barely covered the annoying thrumming of my heart.

I hadn't spoken to Denki in months. Izuku had been gone for a while now and part of me harbored anger towards my friend. I blamed him for making things worse between Izuku and me. But in reality, things were already screwed up and even if Denki had never met my the guy, the results would have been the same.

However, things were finally beginning to fall into place with my life. Not a day goes by that I don't think about Izuku, but at least I can moe about my day without feeling my heart crack when I see a stranger with the same green hair or freckles. It was better this way, and I held out onto the hope that he would come back. There must have been a reason why he had not broken out bond. I used that as an anchor to hold me in place. It gave me some stability.

I knew little about my mate in the grand scheme of things. I only felt the attachment towards him because of our bond. Although the more time we spend apart the less I can even feel the pull. I wanted him to take this time for himself if that's what he desired. I now knew that my mate was sick and struggling. I blamed myself for that many times over the past month or so. 

Maybe he would have gotten better if I had been nice to him and given things a proper chance? No, they wouldn't. There was too much damage. I knew this time apart was needed. However, it still hurt like a bitch when felt him having sex with someone else. It hurt worse knowing that it wasn't a heat-induced thing. It would happen at random times and not on a normal heat schedule at all. I don't know why I told myself that that would make me feel any less repulsed.

Izuku didn't belong to me. We shared a bond, that was all. I could not be mad at him for having relations outside of me when we never established anything between us. Dwelling on those things would get me nowhere. I had been attempting a more positive outlook on life. Courtesy of Shitty Hair. That man could find the good in any situation. He was always smiling but it rubbed off on me a little. It was a good thing.

I shut my car off once I arrived at Denki's home. Per usual, his parent's cars were gone and his vehicle remained alone in the driveway. His parents worked too damn much -- late nights and sometimes being called away overseas. The Omega was used to being alone -- and being alone and an Omega was never a good combination. My brows furrowed as I thought back to Izuku and the pain he was in. He was alone too. I didn't wish that on anyone, not even Denki.

Before I could knock on the door, it was ripped open and a body was pressed against mine. My eyes widened for a split second before I felt and heard the distressed whines and chirps from the boy latched to me. I said nothing and wrapped my arms around him, pulling him up so his feet left the floor. I walked us inside, kicking the door shut before bringing him towards his bedroom.
