Just friends…

Bakudeku x implied character, angsty flash fic

I watch Bakugou and Midoriya walk by hand in hand, so obviously in love and yet shy to their own feelings. It wasn't fair! I love Bakugou! I was willing to go to Hell and back for the fiery blonde! And yet he chose that mousy nerd over me. What was that man thinking! What did Midoriya have that I don't?! I clench my fists at my sides, nails digging into the hardened palms and quickened skin.

Those two hated each other! Well, more like Midoriya drove Bakugou crazy. So how in this hero worshiping world did they end up as a couple?! It made no sense.

Bakugou and I were always the perfect team in my opinion, fuck anyone else that thought differently. What mattered is I know Bakugou and never tried to hold him back. It was pointless to restrain the beast, but with my strength, I could handle anything that man threw my way. Could Midoriya say the same? That nerd was always landing himself in the nurse's office or hospital. Broken bones, lacerations, exhaustion, the man was a walking disaster!

He always brought out the best in me. Made me feel special in his own way. Sure, to most he's an asshole, but I think he just speaks his mind, nothing wrong with that. Despite the teasing, Bakugou pushed me to be a better hero and person. No wonder I fell in love. The acquired taste that is Bakugou, turns out to be my drug of choice. I didn't know.

But maybe I was a fool from the beginning to ever think I'd stood a chance. Those two knew each other for a long time. I shouldn't be surprised at the newly found or maybe long dormant emotions that had bubbled to the surface. Especially from Midoriya, that man always had a soft spot for his Kaachan…

Kaachan… I cringe as I hear the giggle behind Midoriya's pet name for Katsuki. Ugh! Why do I torture myself like this! I should just walk away, not hover like some pining fool! But I crave a relationship with him, even if it's only just friends….

Just friends…

That's all it could ever be.
