"Oi, give me a bouquet of roses," demanded Katsuki suddenly. He came to visit Deku's shop after being so busy for a week. He had to patrol in ten fucking different areas and finish tons of reports. It was a fucking hell. He missed his nerd. So, here he was, tried his best to look casual when what he wanted right now was screaming and hugging that body.

Deku was shocked then fidgeting. His fingers vibrated while pointed at his face. "Y-you are Ground Zero! Oh, my God! It's not dream! You come to my shop!"

Katsuki's eyebrows furrowed. Ah, it hit him so hard that Deku completely had forgotten everything about him. Like, what the heck he was talking about? Deku saw him everyday before, they were roommate, and more than that, Katsuki came to his pants! Katsuki tried to bite his tongue, so no words came out.

"Don't overreact or you will attract people to come here. It will be troublesome."

Deku was shocked and slapped his own mouth. "S-sorry!"

Katsuki sighed. "It's fine. Where is my order?"

"Wait for a sec, Sir!"

Deku came back with a bouquet of roses and a … paper? Why did he bring a paper along with his order?

"Please, I want to get your autograph!" Deku gave the paper to Katsuki.

Katsuki smiled a bit. It hurt. It hurt. He wanted to scream so badly and throw that paper to Deku's face. Deku was not his fan. He was his partner. He didn't need his autograph. He even could get Katsuki in the flesh. There was no need for—

—Katsuki took the paper and signed on it.

"Please, write 'For Midoriya Izuku'! By the way, that's my name!" Deku rubbed his neck shyly.

'Yeah, I know. I know your name. I even give your nickname and mock you.'

"Here, Midoriya." Katsuki swallowed bitterly. Never in his life he thought that he would call Deku by his surname.

It felt so unreal.

"Zero-sama?" Deku tilted his chin so he could see Katsuki more clearly. "Why don't you swear a lot? It almost feels like you're not Ground Zero I know from TV!"

Katsuki tightened his palm. He wanted to shout on his ear, told him to stop calling him by his hero-name and drop that fucking suffix. Deku never called him by suffix. He would never. Kasuki tried to calm himself.

"It will be bad if someone recognizes me from my trademark."

Deku didn't ask more and Katsuki didn't have any reason to stay even if he wanted to stay for as long as he could there. Katsuki walked out hesitantly. He wanted to be there. He wanted to stay close with him. God. It was so hard.

And then, Katsuki turned back. He faced Deku.

"Hey, can I get your number?"

Deku seemed like he was confused. But, he pulled out his phone from his pocket. "Of course, Zero-sama! It's a honour for me to exchange my number with you!"

"Oh, shut up."

Deku laughed. He didn't even understand why his heart beat fast. Deku kept looking at Zero's eyelashes.

And Deku wondered why there seemed like there was traces of tears.

Although Ground Zero asked his number first, there was no clues when he would call or text Izuku. And Izuku kept looking at his phone all day. A week passed, but Zero still hadn't contacted him yet. Was he busy? It's understandable, right? Villains seemed like more active nowadays to bother society and heroes signed to handle them. Zero was a hero. Number one hero. It's understandable that he was put on front line.

Why did Izuku miss him so much? It wasn't like there was something going on between them. They were just a flower shop and his customer. There's no something special between them. Izuku was just one of his fan. Why did he experience a sharp pang in his heart suddenly?

Izuku suddenly touched his head. It hurt.

Everytime, he thought too much, it would start to hurt and Izuku would let it loose.

Kirishima knew Bakugou Katsuki. First, He self-proclaimed himself as Katsuki's bestfriend. Second, He knew how bad at feelings Katsuki was. He remembered old-days, when Katsuki still hadn't confessed to Deku and both of them kept dancing in black-hole. So, when Katsuki looked at his phone seriously while patrolling, there had to be something.

Kirishima took a peek at Katsuki's phone screen to find a name on it.

"Flower boy? Who is it?"

Katsuki turned his face. "WHY YOU LOOK AT MY PHONE, SHITTY-HAIR? YOU WANT ME TO STAB YOUR EYES THAT BADLY?"

"Calm down, Dude. No violence or you'll be mistaken as villain instead!" Kirishima crossed his arms like he made a shield. "I'm just curious. You keep looking at your phone but you…you just keep looking at it. You hit that flower boy, right? I'll root for you, Bro!"

Kirishima smiled when Katsuki made a bloomer. It was so rare!

'So, he starts to move on from Izuku to that flower boy… That's a good news, I guess.' Kirishima didn't understand why he couldn't congratulate his bestfriend sincerely.

On Saturday, Katsuki was signed in area near Izuku's shop. There was rumors about Deku's sudden appearance there. He was last seen by pedestrians around Tokyo. His green-bunny costume was spotted from a location to other locations and it was mostly a doppelganger. A villain who disguised himself as former-number-one-hero and thought he could trick people.

Katsuki spatted out saliva. Disgusting. That villain should taste Ground Zero's explosion punch for his foolishness. That villain didn't just wear Deku's costume, but he did crime while being Deku. It was fucking unforgivable. He had stolen an old-lady's purse with Deku's appearance!

And Deku … Deku was over there while his doppelganger was also lurking around there. Fucking coincidence.

"Zero, I want your autograph!"

"Please, hand-shake with me!"

"Ground Zero, congratulations! You keep your position as number one hero this month!"

"Zero, can I touch your hair?"

Izuku spotted Ground Zero while he was buying groceries for dinner. Everyone gathered around Ground Zero to simply make him angrier. Like a Pomeranian. Izuku chuckled before lashing his body to greet a said hero.

"Good afternoon, Zero-sama."

"D—Flower Boy?"

Flower Boy? Was it a nickname for him? Izuku couldn't help but laughed a bit. It was so cute. Izuku blushed. He was happy with that nickname. Because it was given by none other than Ground Zero.

"Seems like you're busy with your fans, huh?"

One of Zero's fan was his neighbor and greeting Izuku.

"Midoriya-san! It's so rare for us to meet a number one hero, right?"

Izuku nodded passionately, agreed with his neighbor. Izuku himself stil didn't believe that there was a hero in his small town and it was Ground Zero. Why was the heck number one hero doing in that small town anyway? Like, there's no other heroes.

Katsuki almost lost his composure when one of his fans said loudly.

"Zero, did you still keep in touch with hero Deku?"

Katsuki turned his crimson-eyes just to see that Deku was having a chit-chat with his neighbor. He didn't hear what his fan talked, right?

Like a torture, someone else chimed in conversation. "Lots of people here tell polices that they see hero-Deku stealing candies from a store, hitting a teenager, and even kicking a dog. It can't be him, right?"

"I bet he is a doppelganger. But, it's still dangerous because there's people who still believe that he is hero-Deku."

Katsuki wanted to shut their mouth with his palm. He wanted to end this conversation before Deku, the real Deku, over there got a hint about what they were talking about.

There was a voice in his head, asking what if Deku got a hint? What if Deku listened to their talks? What if Deku remembered who was himself actually?

"We shouldn't force his memories to come back soon. It'll cause harms to his brain."

"Please, Katsuki-kun. Let my Izuku go, will you?"

Katsuki clenched his fist.

After signing autographs for his fans, Katsuki followed Deku. He couldn't be calm unless he could make sure himself that Deku was safe. There was a scream that was heard from behind and Katsuki was on high-alert instantly. He ran to a source of scream.

"T-There is hero-Deku in front of me suddenly. I'm so happy that I don't realize he takes my bag and just leave!"

Asshole …!

Since when his lover turned to be a bag-snatcher? What kind of image was that? Was that villain having problem with Deku and now, he wanted to take revenge by destroying his image?

Katsuki observed his surrounding before spotting a green-silhouette on the roof.

"Heh! Found you, Fucker!"

Katsuki blasted himself to the roof, tried to catch Deku's doppelganger.

"You shit! I won't let you escape!"

Katsuki could see how similar this villain with Deku. His costume was actually no different from Deku's (it was so detail and A-grade fabric) and his body was as short as Deku. But, his face! HIS FACE WASN'T SO DEKU!

The doppelganger was panic when he saw who was pursuing him and tried to escape by diving off of the roof…to fall on someone below.

Katsuki's wide-eyed staring at the person below. Someone who was so familiar. No way.

'Deku! Fuck coincidence!'

A doppelganger tried to choke Deku as he intended to make Deku as hostage. But, a Flower Boy was stronger. He, despite of not remembering who himself was, held back and even locked the villain's movements.

"You are villain, right? Everyone here is talking about bag-snatcher and a thief!" Deku's left arm took the bag from the villain and Katsuki? He still stared in awe.

The villain tried to attack Deku, but failed. And when he tilted his chin to look at Deku, he became numb.

"Impossible…. It is impossible. Y-you are…. You are?!" He looked at Deku like he was looking at ghost. Deku himself was confused. He didn't understand that looks.

Katsuki interrupted before that villain spitting out Deku's identity.

"Midoriya-san, hand him to me. Thank you for your action. It… it is so cool. You're like hero." Katsuki tried his best to control his emotion.

Once hero, Deku would remain as hero and Katsuki didn't give a damn. Even if he didn't remember. Even if Deku was a simply flower-boy, he was still hero inside, a hero who didn't need costume, cape, and even license.

Polices came and arrested the villain. They became numb when thet stared at Ground Zero and then Deku. Of course, they recognized that nerd's face.

"Ground Zero, t-thanks for helping us again. And thanks, um, Sir?"

Oh, this police being so considerate by not revealing Deku's identity.

"He is … Midoriya," answered Katsuki. "He's an owner of flower shop there. He helps me to apprehend the villain."

As if they could understand what was inside of Katsuki's head, they were just tipping their hats to Deku's action. No further question which was thankful. Because, Katsuki didn't think he could bear more question about his lover.

"Keep it secret from public. I mean, about him." Katsuki's thumb pointed at Deku who just stood while watching polices.

Everything was going back to normal and Katsuki took the initiative to take Deku home. It was still bothering him that there was a person who copied his Deku.

Katsuki looked at Deku's figure next to him until he started touch his head and screamed pain. Katsuki saw red when Deku passed out before him.

"IZUKU!"
