Chapter Four
The next day was normal, or as normal as Izuku's definition of it could be right now.
Because the boy was not thinking about school, like he normally would, he was not even thinking about the brief encounter he had with Katsuki last night, that normally would be a constant in his mind, and he was also not thinking about… about anything he normally would. But what was on his mind was…
Shoto.
Of course he was thinking about him, Izuku couldn't get the boy out of his head.
The previous night he had not been able to sleep, too engrossed in the thoughts of the other boy. It had been as if his brain could not find the switch to simply turn off. Every time he remembered Shoto's words, his voice, his eyes, his everything, it was as if little sparks of electricity came to life beneath his skin, keeping him on a constant rush that never seemed to stop.
And it was still like this, even now.
Izuku was walking to class with a spring in his step, feeling ecstatic as he hummed to a random, happy tune. Ochako and Iida were following behind, with a bright smile and a default expression each.
"He's so happy today!" Ochako commented with an even happier grin than Izuku's one.
Iida nodded.
"Doesn't he look super happy?"
Iida nodded again.
"Is this what it means to be in love?"
Iida nodded again, of course.
"Love. The love they talk about in the movies! And it's here! Right in front of our eyes!"
Iida, without fail, nodded some more.
"Goodness gracious, this is love! Can you even believe it!? Deku-kun is in love!" She had to stop and take in big gulps of air once in a while, as if she was running a marathon or something.
Once more, Iida gave a trustworthy nod.
Meanwhile, Izuku was obviously still thinking about Shoto. In fact, he was thinking about him so much that he didn't even notice the student he bumped into. He became aware only after he had accidentally thrown the other boy to the ground when their shoulders came in contact.
He glanced at the now sprawled student on the floor, his grin was still in place because thoughts of Shoto were still in his head, and he nodded at him in a way he had seen the cool guys do in movies.
"Sorry, brother."
The guy glanced up confused. "…I'm not your brother?"
Izuku raised a hand with his fingers forming the V sign and with a lazy grin, and a lazier wave of his hand, he called out over his shoulder. "Peace." And kept walking towards class.
"Please ignore him, he's in love." Ochako sighed dreamily.
The other student was even more confused than before, Iida nodded here too, Ochako kept seeing love everywhere and Kyoka, who had just come to the scene, stared after the curly haired boy with a slight hint of bewilderment, but she was mostly unimpressed with it all.
"I think he has been infected by Kaminari." The girl stated, almost worried for her classmate since he started resembling Denki a little by the way he was behaving.
Ochako tilted her head curiously. "Why do you say that?"
"Guys." Denki's voice, deeper than usual for a more dramatic effect, suddenly boomed in the room as he made an announcement during one of their sleepovers, holding his head up high as if going to war. "I think I'm going to be an actor."
"Why?" Sero asked, not curious at all.
Denki opened his arms wide, looked up at the sky… which consisted of the bland, white ceiling of his room. "Because I was born to be a star. It's in my blood. I can feel it now… everyone will finally recognize and acknowledge my talent on the big screen!"
Mina hummed in disinterest. "And what about becoming a hero?"
"Hero by day. Actor by night." Denki whispered in a low, secretive voice. Then brightened up to his usual self again. "Oh hey, that could be the title for a movie. Okay, now I'll go for a little run to yell my newfound passion in everyone's faces until it gets drilled in their brains!"
They watched him barge out, still hearing his screams - 'I will become a Hollywood staaaar!'-minutes after he ran out of the room.
"I'm not staying up all night to let him in this time." Mina mumbled mindlessly, not raising her head from the magazine she was reading.
Kyoka picked up another card and scoffed under her breath because it seemed Sero was going to win this round of the game. "Nah, lock the door. He'll find another way to get in his room. Or maybe spend some more time with that man he befriended last week at the park."
Sero knitted his eyebrows in recollection. "…Didn't that turn out to be a thief he had accidentally helped because Kaminari's oblivious like that?"
"Guess he'll find another profession to put in his wish list, then."
Kyoka looked away and shrugged. "No reason."
Ochako clasped her hands together, her eyes were almost shaped like hearts. "What Deku-kun has been affected with is… love."
Kyoka eyed her uncertainly. "…If you say so."
Iida simply nodded.
Oblivious to his friends talking, Izuku had just entered the class.
And stopped in his tracks.
Because, of course, his giddiness just increased when he saw the dual haired boy taking his seat, seemingly lost in his own thoughts too. He swore he almost heard his heart going 'ping' when Shoto raised his head and their eyes met. He couldn't even feel his face anymore, distantly thinking this was what it would mean to have half of Shoto's quirk.
In a haste Izuku raised a hand. Or tried to. Because it got stuck in his uniform, in some way, and he accidentally undid the first button. He looked down at the mess his hand just made and tried to get the uncooperative appendage to unstick, nervously searching the other boy's eyes and even more nervously trying to laugh it off.
The edge of Shoto's lips quirked up in a light smile at the display because unknown to Izuku, the only word his mind could conjure up in that moment was adorable.
Meanwhile some of their classmates already in the class were watching the exchange with a deadpan.
"Are we seriously going to be witnesses to his love failures?" Sero huffed in complaint.
"Aww, he's cute." Mina grinned at the adorably awkward boy.
With a strong flick of his wrist Izuku finally managed to get his hand free and he raised it in the air victorious!
…But his necktie accidentally flew off, ending up on Iida's face just as he entered the classroom.
Mina tilted her head thoughtfully. "…well, kind of cute."
Izuku ignored his missing necktie, or the fact that it had just landed on his best friend's face, because amidst the fog-induced-crush-thoughts he had a sudden moment of clarity and realized that he was standing right in front of the entrance, looking like a (cute) fool.
He didn't know what to do, feeling self-conscious even if the giddiness had tripled in amount inside his veins.
So he decided that the best method of approach in such a situation would be a wave, just as he had planned to, before he took his own seat.
But it was not.
Because when he raised his hand again he heard a distinct 'slap', followed by a groan. He furrowed his brows in confusion and when he turned his head to the side he saw his hand had connected with something. To be more specific, it had connected with Denki's face.
"Oh." Izuku blinked, taking off his hand from his friend's face. "Hi Kaminari-kun." He then greeted him as cheerful and innocent as ever.
Denki groaned again, holding his nose and scrunching up his eyes, sniffing a little. "Oww..."
Izuku ignored him.
Facing once again the boy (of his dreams), he found Shoto still had that same expression on, which for some reason made his knees and heart feel wobbly, and it was such a nice sensation that Izuku didn't know what to do with himself.
In the end he settled for a tiny nod, that Shoto returned with the glint of a smile lighting up his eyes, as if, somehow, Izuku greeting him (or trying to) might be a reason for said smile. And if that was not the best thing that had happened to Izuku since the day had started, then he didn't know what was.
With a burst of energy coming from somewhere inside, he all but rushed to his seat, taking out a book chosen at random from his backpack and opening it, hiding his now burning face and giggling to himself.
Izuku discretely tilted his head to the side to try and steal a glance, and he found Shoto's small smile still directed at him. He flushed and immediately looked away, with an unmistakable grin he could not fight off his face.
"He looks like a school girl on her first crush." Mineta commented.
Sero looked at him pointedly. "Well, if you take out the 'girl' part, then... that's literally it."
Mineta blinked. "Oh. You're right."
Izuku started giggling uncontrollably the more he stared at the other boy, hiding in his book and kicking his feet, mumbling something unintelligible to himself all the while.
Mineta frowned. "I changed my mind, he looks more like a serial killer now."
Sero nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you're right."
Another day dragged on for the heroes, through the complicated lessons, the strenuous training, the rigorous… well, that was a lie because Izuku could not really describe the day that went past since he did not register a single bit of it. Someone could have started a fire and he would have still been oblivious to it all.
What he did register, though, was Shoto's smile, Shoto's hair, Shoto taking notes, Shoto smiling at him again, Shoto blinking, Shoto looking at him, and Shoto- really, just him. Did he already mention Shoto's smile?
Once the class was dismissed the students began to collect their things and chat about their afternoon plans, except for Izuku who all but ran out of the classroom, too lost in his own thoughts. Again. Shoto was the second to make his leave, he too was uncaring about anything that happened around him.
But there was another student who was in a similar situation to these two.
"Bakugo." Eijiro called to his best friend, but received no answer.
"Bakugo." He tried again a little louder, the ashy blond was still looking out of the window.
"Bakugo!" Eijiro placed a hand on his desk, went closer in hopes of getting his attention this time. But nothing still.
"Look, there's a sale on spicy wings!"
This had the desired effect.
Katsuki snapped out of whatever thoughts he had been swimming inside his head and looked up at the red head, startled for a moment. His eyes seemed innocent, the same wide-eyed gaze that Izuku had sometimes, and it was unusual for Katsuki to have that kind of expression, it made him look younger.
"The fuck do you want, rock face?"
But he quickly turned back to his normal self.
Ah, yes, usual Katsuki they all have come to adore anyway.
"The bell rang, didn't you hear?"
Katsuki's eyebrows knitted in the center of his forehead, blinking a few times almost disoriented. "Uh..."
Eijiro was the one confused. Katsuki was almost always the first to leave class and go, sometimes he went training, on especially good days he let himself be dragged into whatever his circle of friends had planned.
But today, he seemed a little... out of it.
'No, not just today.' Eijiro thought to himself.
It had happened yesterday too, after the 'accident'. At first Katsuki had been quiet, almost strangely so, and when they had gotten off the bus he had not even spared a glance in Eijiro's direction after bumping into him.
And even in class now. True, Katsuki was not one to usually raise his hand at every opportunity, although he tended to blurt out his opinion more often than not. But still, he never passed up the chance to make snide remarks, to classmates and teachers alike. These last couple of days instead, he had been... absent.
"Are you okay?" Eijiro asked suddenly, starting to feel a little worried.
Katsuki's eyes widened a fraction at the unexpected question. "Why wouldn't I fucking be?"
The red head didn't want to push on what could be a sore subject and risk him close off, but he also wanted to know if there was something wrong…
And if it was somehow connected to their two friends' accident.
Eijiro tried to tread carefully. "Is it... because of the quirk?"
Katsuki raised an oblivious eyebrow. "Huh? What quirk?"
"You know." Eijiro rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "…The quirk of that villain-"
"What damn villain?" Katsuki interrupted, actual curiosity tinting his expression.
"What did you say?" Denki was the one to question this time, feeling as puzzled as Eijiro looked after overhearing them.
"What fucking quirk are you talking about?" Katsuki asked through gritted teeth, starting to get annoyed.
The rest of the class had, by this point, heard the three.
Denki and Eijiro exchanged a long look.
"Are you kidding right now?"
"Do I look like I'm fucking kidding?"
In truth, Katsuki didn't look to be joking. At all.
Denki crossed his arms and narrowed wary eyes at him. "Wait... do you suffer from memory loss or something?"
"The fuck are you on, shitty brain?"
"But... yesterday, we-" Eijiro stuttered, feeling a little lost at Katsuki's expression. He truly seemed clueless. "-when we… when-"
"Fuck off already." Katsuki clicked his tongue, apparently losing interest in the matter. He got up and gathered his things, throwing the backpack over one shoulder. "See you later losers." And disappeared out of the door, leaving his classmates to stare befuddled at his exit.
"He… doesn't remember?" Momo was the one to break the silence, looking for an explanation.
"We have literally talked about this for two days straight." Mina added, just as bewildered.
Denki snorted quietly. "Not that straight."
Sero and Mineta snickered, Ochako tried to hide her own, Kyoka rolled her eyes and Iida was nodding, again.
"What?" Momo asked curiously, not having heard the blond.
"Nothing." Denki shook his head, the others did too.
"Didn't he seem… distracted today?" Toru spoke next with a contemplative finger on her chin that no one saw.
"And yesterday too." Eijiro answered, trying to think of a reason to Katsuki's sudden… change.
"Eheheh!"
They frowned at the shrill laughter piercing the air, looking around for the source.
"I know why!"
"Ehh?" They looked at each other, trying to figure out who was the one with the answers.
"I know it, I know it!"
Oh, it was Dark Shadow.
Kyoka narrowed her eyes, as if thinking deeply about something truly important. And she shared it with her friends. "It's almost more annoying than Kaminari."
"Hey!"
"You said you know the answer?" Sero asked the Shadow. "The answer to what?"
"To what's going on with Bakugo!"
Eijiro almost gasped, practically throwing himself at Tokoyami's desk. "What is it? What's going on with him?!"
"Eheheh!" The Shadow's laugh almost sounded mischievous. "Bakugo was hit by the infatuation quirk too!"
The whole class stared dumbfounded, until…
"WAIT WHAT?!"
As soon as Katsuki heard the explosion he ran towards it, fed up with having to wait to take part in whatever lesson Aizawa had come up with this time. But it wasn't as easy as he would have liked for it to be since there were people screaming and running everywhere, and he had to keep his quirk in check to prevent harming anyone from the sheer irritation of it all. Although, once in front of the bank, it wasn't as difficult to locate the villains.
One in particular.
He felt annoyance and excitement fill him in equal parts as he ran towards the criminal, palms already crackling in anticipation of the explosions he wanted to set off.
Before he could catch the villain, however, he was stopped in his tracks. But the criminal had not done anything yet, he was not even touching him. There was just… something about his eyes. Something strange.
This guy could not have been much older than him and he did not look to be threatening at all. He was not what one would expect a villain to be like. He also had the kind of smug face that pissed Katsuki off to no end.
But his eyes… why couldn't he look away?
"Seems like you have some things of your own you need to sort out." The guy stated, far too calmly and pleased for someone who should have been running for their life after robbing a bank, but he also sounded… confident, as if he knew something Katsuki did not.
The blond was about to retort with some sarcasm and then proceed to beat the hell out of him, before he could act on any of the dozens of scenarios his mind had come up with however, all ending badly for the criminal, he was interrupted by his next words.
"This might help."
Katsuki had no idea what to expect.
But even so this possibility was certainly not it.
The moment the boy's eyes turned grey Katsuki stopped breathing.
There was a second, a mere second of quiet, of silence, if he dared to he might have called it peace. Nothing and no one existed except for this bubble he found himself in, distant from the outside world.
And then everything exploded.
Senses and emotions came rushing and crashing down inside of him all at once, fighting to prevail and the force behind it all was so strong he physically felt it. In that moment his body could have been turning inside out for all he knew.
And then it happened. Amidst the collision and coexistence of the chaos inside of him he caught a glimpse of a spiral.
Those eyes.
It felt like slow motion, the moment both Izuku and Shoto turned towards him.
The rush inside of him ceased to exist all together.
He felt ice in his veins and fire take over his face, never having experienced a more contrasting but pleasant sensation in his entire life. It was as if the sky lit on fire and light suddenly came sweeping in, overwhelming the entire world. This sort of fuzzy aura was everywhere, invading his vision, burning in his chest, filling his lungs. So white it would have been blinding, if not for the fact that what he could only seem to focus on were the different colors making up their eyes.
And it was so unlike anything he had ever felt before.
It lasted an eternity, this moment he found himself blocked in with no escape. But, surprisingly… Katsuki was not looking for an escape.
Abruptly his lungs finally filled with sweet, relieving oxygen and the light around him disappeared, almost melting away to let him see the world he had been unaware of. The intensity of the moment started fading away, but not the feeling, settling to a slight kind of buzz thrumming below his skin.
If Katsuki had fully come back to his senses he would have noticed that the villain was gone. But Katsuki had not come back to his senses, much like the other two.
If that moment had been in slow motion, everything that came afterwards seemed to go at twice the normal speed. He tried to pretend like everything was fine, like he knew what was going on. So he put on his best glare, pretended to be annoyed with something or someone, tried to live in the day even when it felt like it was slipping away from his fingertips. Because the truth was that he was unaware of everything, except for what was currently happening inside of him.
And the worst- or best- thing was that he ignored the same was happening to the other two boys who had fallen 'under the spell', just like he had. But with each other.
"Eheh and that's what happened!" Dark Shadow finished sharing what he had seen happen between Katsuki and the villain the previous day.
Everyone's jaw dropped to the floor.
"Why didn't you say anything before!?" Ochako shook Tokoyami back and forth as if he had committed a horrible crime, glaring at Dark Shadow in a way that said he had hidden a far too precious secret from them.
The Shadow tried to answer, but was interrupted by its owner.
"Dark shadow, how many times do I have to tell you? You should not meddle in other people's business, what they do in their life is only for them to know."
Indirectly, Ochako, and the class, had received their answer.
"But this sounds like fun!"
"No." Tokoyami denied firmly. "Spying on people's lives is not fun."
"It kind of is." Mineta and Denki muttered under their breaths.
Tokoyami shot them a disapproving look.
"No, no, it's not! It's absolutely no fun at all! Hah… ahahah!" Both boys immediately uttered as they shook their heads quickly, rubbed their necks sheepishly and let out nervous laughs, all of this in sync.
When Tokoyami nodded satisfied and focused his attention elsewhere the two sighed in relief.
"Well…" After a beat in which she had gathered her thoughts, Mina started with a slight frown on her face. "…this changes things."
"And complicates them." Sero added, almost curiously this time.
"Wait." Denki raised his hand to stop them, his brows were already furrowed in deep concentration as the new information sank in. "Can a… a what? A three-way relationship work? What do you even call it? A… threeshionship?" He scratched his head, trying to find a name that would make sense.
"Polyamory, from the Greek πολύpoly, meaning 'many, several' and Latin amor, meaning 'love', is the practice of, or desire for intimate relationships with more than one partner, with the consent of all partners involved. It has been described as 'consensual, ethical, and responsible non-monogamy.'" Momo explained, almost as if she had been reading a dictionary.
"Oooh." The rest of the class, minus Kyoka, stared at the girl in awe.
Momo smiled at them. But, when more than a few seconds of complete silence passed, her smile faltered. "…You did not understand what I said."
"Nope." Her classmates, minus Kyoka, confirmed her statement.
"I lost you at poliomory." Denki added.
"It's polyamory." She corrected him.
"Oh." Denki frowned, feeling even more confused. "So I lost you before that."
Momo sighed in exasperation.
"Let me say it in a way you'll get this, then." Kyoka took the lead. "It's. More. Than. Two. People. In. A. Relationship." She punctuated each word, using a tone that sounded just slightly condescending, as if she was speaking with a bunch of little kids. "You understand that?"
"Ooooh." The class echoed, still lost.
Kyoka waited for it to settle inside their brains in
3,
2,
1-
"Oooooooooooh!" They finally understood.
She shook her head in distaste. "You guys are slower than Kaminari."
"Hey!"
Ojiro rubbed his chin thoughtfully, as if he was stroking an invisible beard. "So that quirk works... with three people at the same time?"
Shoji narrowed his eyes in contemplation. "Is there even a limit?"
"Wow! Imagine having that kind of power in the wrong hands!" Toru continued, more excited than worried about that prospect.
Mineta crossed his arms and nodded with a little smirk to himself. "Eheh, if I had that kind of quirk I would-"
Sero shut his mouth with some tape.
"Not now, my little grapey friend." He patted his bouncy and wobbly head. "We have more important matters to discuss."
"Mph!"
Sero nodded at him. "Yes, really."
"Mmpgh phmp!"
Sero shook his head. "No, I can assure you I completely understand what you're saying."
"I can't even imagine what this villain has done with his quirk up until now." Aoyama also took part in the conversation, even if he was mostly checking his sparkly smile in his hand mirror.
"Oh, don't worry." Mina waved a dismissive hand towards her friends. "Cute bad guys are only bad in movies. Cute bad guys are actually good in real life." She shared her wisdom and experience with them, having seen the villain that was the cause of this all. And of course cute guys would never cause real troubles because they are too cute to do so. At least this is what Mina swore by.
The class eyed her uncertainly. "...Sure."
"Trust me, I know what I'm talking about."
They didn't think so, but they didn't need to let her know that.
"AAAAAAH!"
Ochako's scream caught everyone by surprise.
"I remembered something!" The girl ran to Iida and started shaking him this time. "Recovery Girl had told us that whoever is hit by this quirk is… not aware of it!"
Momo nodded, remembering the conversation they had outside the infirmary room, this being one of the most surprising aspects of the infatuation quirk.
"Wait…" Denki stopped them, once again. Completely lost… once again. "You mean they don't know they have this… well, this 'crush' on each other?" He air quoted the word, scrunching up his face in confusion.
"Now that you say it… that makes sense." Sero reasoned. "If they knew they would have probably freaked out."
"Maybe Midoriya-kun." Mina hummed thoughtfully. "Todoroki-kun would have just been like…" She stared blankly ahead of her. "'oh.'"
"You do a nice impression of him." Sero complimented her.
She smiled happily. "Thank you."
"Just like Midoriya-kun and Todoroki-kun... does this mean Bakugo-kun is not aware of it either, kero?" Tsuuyu asked, tilting her head to the side cutely.
There was a bout of silence… then lightning struck them. Somehow, for a moment, they had all forgotten they had stayed behind just to talk about Katsuki, having gotten side-tracked instead by everything else.
"Hmm?" Tsuuyu regarded them curiously, it seemed she was the only 'un-distracted' one.
"If this is the case, then… we should probably not tell them what happened with the quirk." Sato sounded unsure when he voiced his opinion to his classmates.
"Why?" Most of them asked at the same time.
His expression darkened and his voice wavered slightly. "…Just imagine how Bakugo would react… if we break to him the news."
Their imagination, fueled by teen hormones and a little too much sugar running through their veins, immediately created a scenario inside their heads.
Katsuki stared wide-eyed, lips slightly parted in shock at the revelation of the 'accident'.
Out of nowhere, explosions set off all around him, destroying whatever was in his reach.
His anger was practically tangible.
"What?! You'll fucking pay for thiiiiiis!"
The ground trembled, cracking underneath such a furious being. But his screams were nothing compared to the giant threat he posed as a dragon with three heads, especially when out of every mouth he started spitting out fire and-
"Okay, the part of the dragon with three heads is a little exaggerated." Sero waved his hand in the air as if to erase the image Denki had just narrated to the class.
"Huh? Are you sure?" The blond seemed quite confident about the train of through he had taken. "'Cause that's exactly how I imagine him to be."
Most of them sighed in exasperation. But Eijiro was staring at the boy with a fond smile, soon enough being reciprocated by the blond.
"So this proves that we should never tell any of them about this." Mina concluded with a satisfied nod.
Iida and Koji nodded too.
"Or we just wait until the effects wear off and then let them know." Kyoka went on to say almost absent-mindedly.
"Is it gonna wear off, though? They seem to be pretty interested in each other." Mina pointed out, thinking about how Izuku and Shoto had been behaving after the 'accident'.
"For one of them it could only be the quirk." Kyoka countered.
Heads turned in her direction. "Huh?"
"From what we know, Midoriya already liked Todoroki. And Todoroki has shown a certain interest for him too." She explained. "I mean, only an idiot wouldn't have noticed. Even Kaminari did."
Denki nodded proudly. "Yes, I did." Then he thought over her words, which didn't appear to be as nice. "Hey!"
Kyoka ignored him and carried on. "But do you think that Bakugo would like either of them?"
The question was met with initial silence and doubtful glances shared between the others.
"Are you saying he can't… have feelings for someone?" Eijiro broke the quiet, sounding almost saddened.
"I'm not saying that." The girl reassured him with a small, almost unnoticeable smile. "But from what we have seen he has always been so…" She paused, selecting her next words carefully. "…indifferent to anything that didn't involve reaching his aim to become a hero. He has never really shown any interest in Todoroki, except for wanting to defeat him. As for Midoriya, instead, with the past they have… after the effects of the quirk wear off those two will probably get back to playing cat and mouse." She finished calmly, waiting for the response.
Her friends were pondering over it, similar but slightly different reactions on each of their faces since they couldn't deny the truth in her words. Ochako and Eijiro's shoulders sagged a little, the confusion-turned-excitement after having just discovered the 'love triangle' now weakened in front of the new prospect that this might all be over soon.
"But then Midoriya and Todoroki will probably get married!" Mina's voice suddenly caught their attention.
"…Huh?"
"We found another blog!" Toru continued, sharing her friend's enthusiasm. "A girl who was hit by a similar quirk a few years ago 'fell in love' with her best friend too! And after the 'infatuation' disappeared they got married! Isn't that what is going to happen to Midoriya and Todoroki since they are such good friends and liked each other already before this?" If she had not been invisible everyone would have seen the big grin threatening to split her face.
"Awwww!" Most of the girls cooed, and so did Eijiro.
Among the ecstatic squeals Sero's attention fell back on Denki who, instead of spouting some of his nonsense, was being unusually quiet.
"Don't think too much, you're going to hurt yourself." Sero teased his best friend with a half-hearted smirk.
"Ha-ha. Very funny." Denki muttered sarcastically. "Seriously though, what if this isn't happening just because of that quirk? What if by the time this crush 'expires', not only Todoroki and Midoriya's, but also Bakugo's… feelings…." He couldn't believe he was considering the other blond as someone capable of having feelings right now.
(The only times Denki saw Katsuki feel something were when he was angrily chasing him around because of one of his pranks, but that was another story altogether).
"… are still going to be there?"
"Hmm…" Sero took the possibility in consideration. But not being able to come up with an answer he simply shrugged it off. "Who knows?"
Denki turned to Kyoka, who seemed to be the one with all the answers. "So… what do we do now?"
"The only thing we can do." She answered honestly. "Just wait and see what happens next."
. . .
A/N: We finally got to see what happened to Katsuki too!
Seriously though… did you expect Katsuki to have been hit by the infatuation quirk too? Because if you did then I suck at the surprise element. If you didn't, I'm actually happy!
But now things might get just a tiny little bit… complicated.
