"Kacchan?" I hear his voice calling out weakly for me.
"I'm coming fucking nerd, hold on," I try to grumble but dirt and dust had already filled the air making me hack and cough while I shoved the rubble off of me. Which really didn't help with my breathing because it just shot more dust and rubble into the air.
The fuck? I try to think back to what happened but my head is all blurry. Fuck it all! I drag myself in the direction that I think Deku's voice came from.
"Oi nerd! Where the fuck are you?" I somehow managed not to cough until I was done. That didn't however stop the smoke and debris from feeling like fire. Was I on broken concrete? It was white whatever it was. Was... Now it was covered in bright slick red blood. I was coughing up blood?
"Kacchan?" He sounded so weak that for a second I didn't care about sounding angry. There isn't anyone here too hear me anyway.
I crawled as quickly as I could slipping and sliding on either the rubble or my own blood. Sometimes it was something else altogether but I would really prefer not to think about what it could be. The very deep red almost black in color material was smooth and slipped under my feet with ease, as if it were well lubricated... No, I'm not going to think about that. No not now.
It didn't take long to find Deku, he was pinned under a bunch of rubble and it looked like at least one of his legs were broken. His torso however looked fine so I shouldn't have to worry about internal bleeding, at least not from his organs.
"What the fuck happened?" I mutter a string of curses as I push the rubble off of Deku, finally freeing him.
"I don't know. The last thing I remember we were in class Aizawa Sensei was lecturing Mineta about sexual harassment again and then this," he shrugged tilting his head towards our surrounding area.
Part of me wondered if the school was attacked but that seems wrong somehow. In my memories we were in our UA uniforms but right now... We are in our hero suits and to make things weirder we seem larger than before? I swear I didn't have quite this much muscle and I swear to giving All Might that fucking Deku sure as fuck didn't.
I find what I need to make an emergency splint for Deku's leg and wrap it as carefully and tightly as I could. I want to be the number 1 hero but I want to earn that fucking title. Not let the nerd drop out because of this bullshit.
"Things are not making sense but we can deal with that later. Right now we need to get the fuck out of here. Wherever the fuck here is." I point out and he nods weakly.
"I know you don't need it but if you want my quirk to get us out..." He left his sentence unfinished and I rolled my eyes at his dumbass, scoffing as I did. "I figured as much, but still. You can take it if I somehow pass out before we get out of here. I can't lie, I'm in bad shape."
I grumbled acknowledging what he was saying. He was not only giving his consent but willing his quirk to me now just in case shit gets worse. We search ourselves and find most of our supplies are already gone so they must have been stolen or we lost our memories somehow. Probably a quirk considering both of our memories are from the same time.
"Since you can't walk I'm going to look around a bit to see what I can find before we try to actually do something," I see Deku nod having found a cell phone in his pocket he was trying to get it to work. The battery was full but it wasn't getting a signal, you know probably from all the concrete around us.
Now that I'm more aware of what is going on and more alert it was much easier to move around. Coughing up blood wasn't more than an inconvenience at the moment. I had to get down on my hands and knees in some places but I was able to see daylight. I still don't know where the fuck we are but it didn't seem like we are in any immediate danger.
I make my way back to Deku and find him still working on the phone. I told him what I found and he smiled. "Good at least we have a way out, but we need to know what is going on before we move too quickly." He plays with the phone a little more before a smile lit up his face again. "Got it!"
He showed me the phone and that he was able to get a signal and pull up the gps and news. We were in the middle of Huso where an old apartment building used to be. It was scheduled for demolition today so it was assumed to be empty. Okay so no innocent bystanders, that's good.
He clicked the news feed and found out that we had been chasing a villain with a tremor quirk who managed to ambush us. Rescue workers were still looking for us but the villain had been caught. No one seemed sure who we were though. The news just kept saying 'two heroes'. Odd.
"So it's safe to get out of here," I mumbled before the whole area started to tremble and large chunks of concrete fell from above our heads. I awkwardly picked Deku up and made my way back to the exit I found.
"Something doesn't make sense though. The date for one thing is 4 years into the future and also how did our memories get erased? That's the only thing I can think of to answer all this." Deku was mumbling and I was only half listening. He was right of course, our memories are from our third year of UA not as pro heroes. But Deku needed medical attention and as soon as possible.
"Are there any names in the contacts we can call on that phone?" I ask but keep going while Deku searches.
"Red Riot, Chargezuma, Shoto and well it looks like the whole class and... Eraserhead?"
"Call him!" I coughed as a bunch more dust fell on us while we moved. Deku put the phone to my ear considering the side of my head wasn't covered in blood like a certain someone's. Fucking Deku.
"Bakugo!?" Came his worried but relieved sigh. Just fucking great. "Where are you? I'll come get you?"
"The GPS says I'm xxxxx but what the fuck happened? Why in the fuck are we here?" I was bitching and I know it but it helped to calm me down.
"We? Who is with you?" His voice took a strange tone like he couldn't believe what he was hearing. I roll my eyes at that. I mean fuck I know I'm a brat but I'm not THAT much of a monster.
"Fucking Deku who the fuck else? And he is hurt pretty bad too. It looks like one leg is completely broken, maybe crushed and there is a lot of blood." There was a long silence on the other end before Deku and I started coughing again from all the smoke and dust.
"Right okay and what about you? Are you okay?" He finally seemed to snap to his senses.
"I'm pretty sure I'm bruised all over and I've been coughing up not but otherwise I'm fine. The nerd needs help though and fast. I can barely hold him up."
"I understand, we are on our way now so be careful!" I resist the urge to roll my eyes. Of course he would still be a worry wart after all these years. I guess I'm not even a student anymore but here he is fretting over me like a mother hen.
Four years is a long time, I wonder how long we will have to pretend to remember everything? I mean I sure as fuck don't want people bugging the fucking shit out of me. I cringe at the thought of all of the head scans they would force on me if they knew I couldn't remember the last few years. Deku would be just as bad, ever since the incident where we were almost buried alive he has been just as reluctant to get into small spaces.
Unless someone needed saving it just fucking wasn't happening.
Eraserhead hung up and Deku and I continue to make our way ridiculously slowly towards the exit.
I hesitate but decide to ask anyway, "You know we planned to tell everyone after we turned 19..." I let my voice trail off and it wasn't lost on me that Deku flinched at the statement.
"If you still don't want to, I understand but considering it's been 4 years, chances are they will be wondering why we are acting like teenagers again," I didn't bother to hide the disappointment in my tone. He is ashamed, I fucking knew it but I had hoped, I had believed him when he told me that he was proud. That he loved me... I believed it all.
"We don't have to hide anymore?" I heard his shocked voice and stumbled when he didn't step forward with me. I turned to look at him and see not fear like I had expected but excitement. I haven't seen this level of excitement since he first saw All Might walk into our classroom on our second day at UA.
"Deku?" I let the question speak for itself but it seemed to work. Deku snapped out of it and grabbed me and pulled me in for a kiss that I swear could have stopped my heart.
"We don't have to hide us anymore!" Deku squeaked his laughter, not caring when we tumbled to the ground. I let out a grunt when he landed on top of me but was otherwise smiling. Thank fucking All Might!
I pulled him in for another kiss not caring when I heard people running above us causing the debris to shift. We did however quickly get back to our feet and make our way to the exit. Deku kept pulling my face towards his to plant sweet kisses on me which were getting ticklish as hell but I didn't care. I let my laughter ring out with each one and when I had to actually focus on where we were going he would just kiss on my neck. At first he made faces at the dust and general grime I was coated in but he found a little water still in my belt to wash the area off before returning to it. The water was cold and I let out a gasp at the shock of it, but I was not about to tell him to stop after seeing how excited he was.
He really is proud of me. I could feel my core swell with pride at the thought, just at how happy I am from it. Deku didn't slow his attention and seemed to only get more and more excited and he had me in full blown giggles.
The world is ending, I know.
It's not long before we finally see the exit and the air is getting easier to breathe, that does not however fix the damage that was already done. The air is clean and the concrete is solid and we are safe. Eraserhead is on his way and I just couldn't take another step.
"Deku I need a break," I was gasping for air but it just wasn't enough.
"Me too, will you hold me? Please?" I choked while laughing but that didn't stop me from laughing anyway. I finally lay down and Deku curls up against me, his head on my chest.
"No more hiding," he had a huge grin on his face but he was quickly falling asleep.
"Deku, it feels like it's been forever. Kiss me? Please?" I could hear our rescuers getting closer and closer ever closer but I really just don't care.
I hear his sweet giggles fill the air before he propped himself up on his elbow and leaned down to kiss me. It was sweet and refreshing and everything that I needed but I want more. He broke away.
"Deku if you love me then kiss me? A real kiss dammit!" Again his giggles filled the air and he gave me sweet little ticklish kisses all over my face.
"DEKU FOR FUCKS SAKE, KISS ME LIKE YOU FUCKING MEAN IT YOU FUCKING NER-!" My words got cut off and he gave me exactly what I was wanting; he stole my breath away while at the same time making my heart pound so hard it felt like it was going to pop right out of me. I could feel mini explosions going off in my hands but even with my arms wrapped around him my palms were facing out so I wouldn't hurt him.
He pulled away and I had to suck in some air, he had stolen every whisper of what I had in me and honestly I wanted him to do it again.
"That's more like it nerd," I smiled and pulled him in for another sweet tender kiss, caressing his face as I do. I pulled him into sweet kiss after kiss, some were innocent, others were ticklish but my favorites were the ones that stole my breath away and had me gasping for air but at the same time it didn't stop me from pulling him in for another.
Why do I feel so starved for attention? For HIS attention and affection. It feels like I've been alone for so long but that's not right. It can't be right. Deku and I promise forever... Didn't we?
"They're coming," he whispered as if warning me.
"You're mine, you can't leave me now." I smirk when his eyes widen in surprise but his answering smile says everything. Even in the low light on the rubble I could see his happiness. My happiness. "Stay," why does it feel like if I close my eyes he will disappear? My memories feel so wrong.
"DYNAMIGHT!" I hear Eraserhead's voice calling from nearby.
"Weird didn't I tell him you were hurt?" I asked groggily. When did I get so sleepy?
"Kacchan it's okay. Help is here, rest now. I'll keep watch until he gets here." I barely register as darkness creeps over me.
***
"Kacchan? Kacchan it's time to wake up," I hear his sweet voice calling softly to me.
"Deku, there is something called sleep and most of us actually need it." I tried to grumble but I couldn't help the smirk on my face. I slowly open my eyes, blinking several times to help focus and I finally see Deku's bright as the sun, smile beaming back at me.
"So what's the damage?" I ask him tilting my head towards his leg but I don't see a cast or anything.
"I'm all healed up. They have several doctors with healing quirks so it was really easy. I'll get to go home tomorrow, not that I would ever leave you." I see his shy smile and the fact that his glances keep going to my lips. It just made me smile more.
"If you want it then take it. I'll give it to you," I lowered my voice and I was practically purring the words as I crooned to him. "I love you." The way his face lit up made me a bit light headed but nonetheless happy. Fuck what kind of drugs do they have me on?
Deku jumped onto the bed; attacking my lips with his own, our tongues gently tasting each other. When we finally separate I let out a content sigh and hug him close.
"Kacchan, I love you." He giggled as I snuggled into his hair.
The door opened so fast that it slammed against the wall. There stood Eraserhead staring at us, his eyes wide in shock. Shit... Did we keep it a secret? Why?
"How?" He held a hand out to Deku and patted his hair making me grumble.
"Oi! Fuck off!" Which only made Deku giggle.
"Kacchan relax, I did have crushed bones. The doctors here are great! They were even able to fix my arms the rest of the way!" He held up an arm and sure enough the scars were gone.
"About time the extras did something important," I grumbled but the smile on my face could still be clearly seen. I snuggled into his neck refusing to let go.
"You're alive?" My blood froze at Eraserheads question. I very slowly looked up and saw him paper white but still staring open mouthed at Deku.
"Why wouldn't I be alive, Sensei?" Deku asked, confused.
There was a loud boom and the entire room shook. I held Deku closer and there was a flash of light in the room as well as manic laughter.
"Finally!" A man stepped out in a pastel pink lab coat, still laughing like a crazy person.
"Satan!" I heard Eraserhead yell and I looked confused. Who the fuck?
"The contract has been broken! Now I'm here to-"
"Who the fuck are you?" I yell at him. "Why the fuck are you in my room?"
"Kacchan! That's rude, maybe he needs help?" Are you lost sir? I'm the hero Deku and this is Dynamight." I frown at my boyfriend but roll my eyes and lean back relaxing in my bed. I'm literally surrounded by heroes. What the hell can this guy do?
The guy blanched and before he could say another word an old time scroll appeared that had both Deku's and my name on it glowing a bright gold.
"NOOOOO!" The pink lab coat extra yelled. "No one has ever won a wager!" Then what looked like huge silver bubbles appeared and one by one they popped leaving people behind. All Might, Aunty, the Hag, and my old man. Hell even Present Mic came out of one. There were a bunch of our classmates too. When all the bubbles seemed to pop two black ones appeared and out of them came All-For-One and another villain I didn't have a name for.
"Daja Vu! You did this?" Pink Lab screeched and then I felt something like a white hot poker stabbing into my head.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" I couldn't stop the scream barely registering that Deku was also screaming just as much next to me on the bed. When the pain finally subsided I was panting but smiling like an evil genius.
"Fucking finally! Die Mother Fucker!" I aimed an explosion at the fucker who did this to us but before I could all three of the villains collapsed while at the same time All Might went into his hero form and stayed that way...
What the fuck just happened?
Déjà Vu was a villain who could temporarily make someone forget a few years worth of memories. But... Oh. Oh. OH!
"It's over?" I looked at Deku and found him just as stunned as me. I ask him again, "It's over?"
"It's over!" Deku broke out into a huge smile and tackled me back onto the bed, his arms around me before sealing my mouth in a kiss that I didn't have a prayer of ever wanting to end. Let alone actually ending it.
There were a bunch of confused mummers and I even heard Icyhot and Round Face cursing my very name. Not that I care even one iota. Deku is mine.
"How? What? When? Who? Arg!" Eraserhead tried to make a coherent sentence but I could really care less at the moment as I caressed my boyfriend running my fingers through his hair and actually giggling when he either got over excited and we bumped noses or when he decided to get playful and actually nip at me.
"Kacchan, we're finally free!" Deku giggled holding me just as tightly yet tenderly.
"Free," I agree, kissing his forehead and he snuggles into my chest.
The wager or contract that we made with the villain Satan was that in exchange for us having everyone think Deku died in a villain attack no one would be able to recognize him. He wouldn't be able to use his quirk. I could see him and I could hear him but I couldn't tell anyone about him. The wager was that no one would be able to figure out that we were dating, that he was alive. In exchange if they won everyone that would have otherwise died in villain attacks would die and Deku would forever lose his quirk and most likely die as a result. Either from a villain attack or disaster I'm sure.
But! And this was a big but; if we, the heroes, won then everyone who was frozen just before dying in a villain attack would be free of harm and restored to their loved ones side. Also Satan would lose his quirk permanently and AFO would receive All Might's injury instead of All Might himself. That's right people everyone who came out of those silver bubbles would have died if not for this wager. We made the deal almost a year ago.
And since everyone in the bubbles were affected by the wager each and every single one of them knew when they were released. What they don't know is the reason why we made the deal; AFO had nearly killed our families and All Might right in front of us. Making the deal was the only way to save them.
"Sorry we're late! There were these weird silver bubbles-" Kaminari came running in with Kirishima but stopped in his tracks when he saw all of our friends. Well one in particular, I rolled my eyes.
"Shin? Shinso? So that really?" He reached a hand out and the brainwasher ran the couple steps to him and flung his arms around him.
"I thought I was going to die and the last thing I said-" he broke off, bawling his eyes out. Oh right. I forgot they had a fight right before his 'death'. There was a bunch of tears and hugging and other bullshit but at the moment I didn't care. I had Deku in my arms, our parents alive though confused, and our hero restored. What more could I want?
"Kacchan?" Deku asked and I hummed letting him know I was listening while snuggling into his arms as I did.
"Will you marry me?" I froze at his words and pulled away slowly to look into his bright green eyes before laughing.
"Fuck yeah! And I thought I couldn't be happier? You proved me wrong!" I couldn't stop laughing and hugging and kissing him not caring in the least about how many of these fuckers were in my room until:
"How long have you two been together?" It was Icyhot who asked and I smirked but let Deku answer.
"Oh um, right we didn't tell anyone. Well we've been together since the Ground Beta fight our first year of UA.
"WHAT!?!" Everyone screamed. Okay now the fuckers can get the fuck out.
"Get the hell out of my fucking room Extras!" Then I pulled Deku in for another kiss. My hero.
