The rest of the two weeks proved to be uneventful. No major phone calls were made by Kirishima, the mics around the house hadn't picked up anything since the first day, except for Kirishima entering to go to bed at night.

Katsuki sighed and he unlocked his house door and pushed it open, trudging to his bedroom. Dropping his bags at his bed, he had hoped Kirishima was with a friend for the night. Glancing at the bed, he felt his heart stop.

Kirishima was clinching his eyes shut and gripping onto Bakugou's pillow, mumbling and shaking in his sleep.

"Ei," Katsuki moved to his side, gently beginning to shake him. "Eijiro-"

Kirishima shot up, his body hardening on it's own. He glanced around, pausing when his eyes meet scarlet.

"You're home," Kirishima smiled, quickly relaxing his body and wiping away his tears.

Katsuki embraced him, hiding his face against the red-head's chest. He felt tears burning his eyes, but be clenched his eyes shut and focused on Eijiro's heartbeat.

"I missed you," Katsuki finally admitted, moving to fully sit in Kirishima's lap.

"I think I missed you more," Kirishima held him tighter, running a hand through Katsuki's messy hair. "Sleeping was a nightmare, it was so cold and lonely."

"Tell me about it," Katsuki chuckled softly, but he couldn't help but wonder if Kirishima meant it. Was this another string of lies?

"You're tense baby," Kirishima tilted Katsuki's head up to face him. "What's wrong?"

"....d-do you hate me?" Katsuki managed to whisper, his insecurities eating away at him. The things Kirishima has said about him on the phone call...

Kirishima gently started kissing all over Katsuki's face, "I could never hate you Kat."

Katsuki shivered, Kirishima moving to leave kisses on Katsuki's jaw and neck.

"C-Can you show me, please?"

Kirishima smiled, pausing to cup Katsuki's cheeks. He nodded and gently kissed Katsuki, moving so that the blonde would be more comfortable.

"Slow and gentle?" Kirishima mummered, gently brushing his nose against Katsuki's.

It took all of Katsuki not to have a break down then and there. He nodded quickly, his arms tightening around Kirishima.

-

Katsuki's breakdown decided to show up in the middle of everything.

Kirishima was whispering sweet nothings when he started to hear soft sobs, and sniffles. He immediately stopped and looked at Katsuki, his eyes widening.

"Baby?"

"I-Im scared Ei," Katsuki finally broke down. "I don't want you to be a bad guy, I don't want to lose you, I need you, Kiri please don't be a liar-"

"Baby. Deep breaths, I need you to slow down," Kirishima spoke softly, wiping away the ash blonde's tears.

"Would you ever lie to me, Ei?" Katsuki spoke through shaking lips.

Kirishima froze, "Theres some things you have to lie about, Kat. Like work, I can't tell you-"

"N-No I mean...I mean about how you feel about me, Ei." Katsuki started to tremble under him again. "I-If you hate me, or you think I'm a monster I ne-need to know."

Kirishima blinked a few times, full of confusion and concern. Katsuki hadn't had this bad of an episode since.

....since the first kidnapping, that Kirishima had been a part of.
