Chapter 4: I Don't Understand

Deku

I don't understand. Every word Kacchan just said, I know but together, their meaning is unknown. I'm so confused. I don't understand in the least what it means. I'm starting to get frustrated. I tell Kacchan I don't understand but I get no response. I cry tears of frustration.

Bakugo

He says he doesn't understand but he's crying so he must understand on some level. He must. I say nothing. I don't know what to say. I'm sorry? What do you say to someone whose girlfriend just died? What do you say to that same person who was about to break up with the girlfriend who just died? And what if that person says they don't understand? What do you say then? I wish someone would tell me and I wait for a bit, half-expecting an answer, but I get nothing so I put my arm around Deku and hold him to my chest.

"I don't know what's going on but don't let go Kacchan," the nerd says.

"Tch. whatever nerd," I say and think about what he really means. Does he really not understand? I love him so I'll explain what I know.

"Toga ingested my blood, making herself appear as me. Then, she wrote a note and hung herself in my room so she could be sure you read her note and saw how truly sorry she was. I'm getting her funeral preparations as soon as we're done here and then we'll say goodbye to the lovely Toga at last. Okay, Deku?" I ask finally looking down at his green hair, his face invisible. He looks up at me as a single tear runs down his cheek and I swipe it away.

"S-s-sure Kacchan."

"I love you nerd," I say as I move him from my lap and I jump out his window.

Deku

D-did K-k-Kacchan say she l-l-loved me? I am about to say it back when I realize Kacchan is already gone. I stare out my window and see Kacchan going into her bedroom. She looks out her window and blows me a kiss. I "catch" it and mouth, " I love you too." I then close my window and curtains so I can get changed. I'm going to Uraraka ASAP. I take off the blood-stained clothes and throw on a white T-Shirt that says, " Go plus ultra like All Might" in yellow box letters. I then grab a black pair of sweatpants and pull them over my pale legs. After that, I grab a green hoodie and pull it over my shirt. I pull on white socks and my famous red sneakers before running out the door.

Bakugo

While calling the police to inform them of this incident, I see Deku running out the door of his house. Where is he going and what is he doing? What's going on?

"Hello? Miss Katsuki?" I hear the operator ask.

"Yes," I say and explain everything. Soon the police are at my house and Toga has now changed back to her natural form. The police instruct me to get out of my room and I yell at them but eventually agree. They tell me I'm not allowed to be in my house now because it is a crime scene and I don't understand what they mean but Inko tells me I can stay with her so I nod. My mom left for a work trip sometime today so I won't be seeing her anytime soon. Then, I see Deku and Round Face approaching me. What is Floaty Girl doing here?!?! With my Deku?!?! They stop before they get to me and Floaty Girl whispers something in Deku's ear. What did she say?! Something about me?! Deku blushes madly and they continue to walk towards me. When Deku sees me, he hugs me.

"Bye Deku. See you at school," Floaty Girl says.

"Okay, Uraraka," my broccoli boi replies. Then I see pink cheeks walk away. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Canadian Flag approaching us. I sigh before pulling Deku close to me. He looks up at me and gives me one of his huge smiles.

"I love you Kacchan," he whispers and tries to kiss me but he's too short to reach my lips. I look at him, making sure he watched my eyes, and then I look at Icyhot.

A deep red crawls across Deku's cheeks and I stifle a laugh. Deku stands to my side and I hold his hand, walking towards half n' half now.

"H-h-hi T-t-todoroki," my Deku stutters.

"Hello Canadian Flag," I greet the extra.

"Hello Midoryia. Bakugo," half n' half greets. "So are you two an 'item' now?" He gestures towards our hands.

"I'm not sure half n' half but I suppose you will let us decide when to tell everyone if this is so. "

"Well. Ya see I would if you had already broken up with Kiri but from the conversation I just had with him, it doesn't seem you have."

" S****y hair," I grumble. "Why do you even care, half n' half?"

"Just looking out for my friends."

"I hate you Icyhot," I say and sigh. I reach in my pocket and feel for the sharp corners of my red phone case. I feel the case and pull my phone out of my pocket. I look at the screen and swipe up. It asks me for my password and I type in "mydeku." Then, I hear a muffled aww and see the nerd was watching me type my password.

"Nerd," I mumble but continue to call Kiri. *ring* *ring*

"Hey my Bakubro what's up babe," Kiri answers. I look at Canadian Flag and he nods. I sigh and tell Kirishima,

"Listen I just don't think it's in either of our best interests for us to- "

I'm cut off by Kirishima's sobbing. He stops and I continue,

" keep dating. I hope you understand."

A wail erupts from Kirishima.

"It's not you. I'm sorry but it was never you. I'm sorry I lead you to believe it was this whole time."

I hear Kirishima's sobbing through out my talking but I don't know what to do. I hang up the phone and turn to Canadian Flag.

"Happy now?" I ask.

"Not quite."
