Denki walked down the halls of the school as fast as he could without actually running, he didn't want any teachers to stop him for breaking the rules. But damn, he had to get out of there. He needed air. Eijirou promised he wouldn't tell anyone. He broke his promise.
"Stupid Eiji, stupid, stupid, stupid!" Denki said to himself as he kept walking, "Stupid me!" He didn't stop walking until someone grabbed his arm and pulled him.
"Oi, where the fuck you think you're going?" it was Katsuki, "Lunch is over. We gotta get back to class."
Denki pulled his arm away, "I'm not going to class."
"You can't ditch, Aizawa will kill you- Wait, are you crying?"
Denki reached up to touch his cheek. He started crying without realizing it, "Maybe I am, why do you care?"
"Because I'm worried about you."
Denki laughed sarcastically, "Why? We're not friends. You said that yourself. I'm not your fucking friend so don't pretend to care about me!"
Katsuki's eyes widened a bit, he wasn't expecting to be called out like that.
"Kaminari. I do care about you. I-"
"No! Don't lie to me! You don't care about anyone but yourself and being the number one hero! That's it!" Denki pushed past Katsuki and started running down the hall, no longer caring about the rules.
"Kaminari! Wait!" Katsuki started running after him. He quickly caught up and grabbed Denki's arm again.
"Let me go! I'm just your fucking extra!" Denki let out a shock of electricity, just strong enough to make Katsuki let go, then started running again.
Katsuki didn't chase after him this time, he just watched him run off. He knew he wasn't the right person to help him. He had to find the person who could. He quickly started running the other direction, towards the classroom.
When he reached the room he went straight up to Kyoka's desk, "You need to find Kaminari. Now."
Kyoka looked startled and a bit confused, "Uh, okay. Why?"
"Because he just electrocuted me before running down the hall crying."
"Wait, what?!" Kyoka stood as anger quickly spread across her face, "What did you do to him?!"
"I didn't do shit! He was already crying when I found him!" Katsuki took a deep breath, knowing screaming at each other wouldn't help, "I'm not the person he needs right now. You are."
Kyoka relaxed, but only slightly, "Why me? Why not Kirishima?"
"I'm pretty sure Kirishima is the reason he's crying."
"Okay, do you know where he went?"
Katsuki shook his head, "When I found him he was going one way but when he ran off he started going the complete other direction. Pretty sure he was just running aimlessly."
"Okay, I'll go find him." Kyoka rushed out of the classroom.
Katsuki sighed and then looked at his classmates. They all had heard the interaction and were staring at him. But he didn't care. He was just worried about the fact that Eijirou wasn't in the classroom.
"Fuck." he grumbled under his breath before leaving the room.
"Kacchan, where are you going?" Izuku asked, following him out.
"I'm going to find Kirishima. Tell Present Mic that something is wrong with Kirishima and Kaminari and Jirou and I went off to find them. That's all he needs to know."
Izuku nodded, "Okay, sure." he turned and went back into the classroom. He trusted Katsuki and didn't feel the need to question him further. Part of him wanted to tag along, wanted to help his friends, but he knew Katsuki would never grow as a friend if he wasn't given the chance to handle personal problems on his own. So, Izuku decided to stay out of it. Just this one time.
Katsuki kept walking, looking down all the halls near the classroom. He knew Eijirou couldn't still be with the teachers. He had clearly talked to Denki since he saw him last. He had to be around here somewhere unless he fled as Denki did.
He ended up finding Eijirou walking out of the bathroom, "There you are!"
Eijirou had finally stopped crying but it was clear he had been, "I know I'm late for class. You don't have to shout at me."
"Fuck class. What the fuck happened with Kaminari?"
"U-Uh... He knows I told Aizawa..."
"I figured that much. He just ran away from me crying after yelling at me about how I need to stop pretending I need to care about him."
Eijrou started tearing up again, "I really fucked up this time. I.. I think he just broke up with me."
Katsuki was silent for a moment, he didn't know what to say to that, "Oh... What did he say?"
"Nothing. He didn't have to. He just left. But I know Denki. I know what his actions mean."
"Well, he didn't actually say it so it's not an official breakup. Don't give up hope."
"I would never give up on Denki. Ever."
Katsuki sighed, "Jirou's looking for him. If anyone can get through to him, it's her."
Eijirou nodded, reaching up to rub his eyes, "Yeah. He needs her right now. He can't be alone when he's upset. He gets lost in his head and spirals out of control."
"Are you okay?"
"Y-Yeah... I just.. I'm just worried I... I might... I might lose Denki..." Eijirou started crying again the moment those words left his mouth.
Katsuki didn't know what to do. The two just stood there.
Things were an absolute shit show.
