Hello minna-san!

I came back with a new chapter!

I wanted to wait until Wednesday to post, but I couldn't wait anymore! hahaha


"I met Ground Zero today." Izuku announced, a grin clearly on her lips.

Her companion, Pro Hero Shouto, or just Todoroki Shouto, stared at her for a second before turning his attention back to his food.

"Hum…but this is the second time though."

Todoroki continued eating his soba, but Izuku knew that he was listening.

"He is funny."

"Midoriya, I don't think that we are talking about the same person." The half red and half white haired man stopped eating his meal, placed the chopsticks down, to look serious at his friend. "Because funny is the last word that someone would use to describe Bakugou Katsuki."

"I think that you're funny too, Shouchan." The woman said giggling.

"And a lot of people disagree with this too." He paused for a second, before adding. "I disagree."

They were at a small family restaurant near Shouto's apartment. Whenever they have time, Izuku and Shouto would meet over there to talk about their chaotic days as a doctor and as a pro hero.

"People just don't know you long enough to get it." The green haired woman commented. "They need at least 13 years to understand your sense of humor, Shouchan."

"I know myself for 24 years, and I still don't get it." Shouto deadpanned.

"Should I punch you in the face again, like when we were in middle school?" Izuku smiled innocently, before taking a bite of her katsudon. "Maybe my point will come across?"

Todoroki couldn't hold back a snort.

"No, thank you." Shouto knew that Izuku wasn't asking, she was just making a point, she would definitely punch him again if he started badmouthing himself. "That one punch in middle school was enough. That's why nowadays I can say that this quirk is mine, and mine alone, right?"

Her expression softened, and a real smile crossed her lips. They knew each other from middle school. At the time, Shouto didn't have anyone to call 'friend', and wasn't approachable at all. People admired him, but at the same time were scared of how his eyes were always piercing through them.

A 12 year old Midoriya Izuku wasn't one of those people.

She was a curious girl, always taking notes of her classmates' quirks, it was just observation though, because her classmates often ignored her, and didn't give her a second of their time, even if she had questions about their quirks. In a way, Izuku was just like Shouto, friendless, but for different reasons.

"Well, back then, you were really a narrow minded kid, so I had to do something." The doctor defended herself. "As if I would stay put when you keep babbling about your fire quirk not being yours."

"I was 12 years old with a really bad home environment." The hero scoffed. "You can't really fault me here."

"I know." She nodded. "That was your dad's fault."

"But you still punched me."

"I did."

"And you broke your fingers doing it." Todoroki added.

"Just to let you know, I didn't know that there's a right way to punch someone." Izuku laughed, and Shouto sighed. "But I don't regret it, and I am sure you don't regret using your father's money on All Might merch just to piss him off."

"Never." He didn't think twice to answer that. "You should have seen his face when the giant All Might plushie arrived at his agency when I was an intern there. He couldn't even put the plushie on fire because we were in public."

"See? You have some sense of humor in you."

"We are the only ones who would laugh at that, you know it, right?" Shouto arched an eyebrow, staring at his friend that just smiled bigger at him. "Also, now that you commented about my father's money…"

He paused for a second, mismatched eyes looking outside the windows on the other side of the restaurant, as if he was waiting for something to happen outside.

"What?" Izuku questioned.

"Kirishima said that the world is ending." He started, and this time, it was Izuku's turn to arch an eyebrow. "So I decided that we should spend all my father's money before it happens. I don't want money to go to waste."

"And why would he say that?"

"Because Bakugou went to the hospital willingly." When the green haired woman didn't say anything, Shouto continued. "Unless you found something really wrong with his head while you were checking him, the world is ending."

It took Izuku a few moments to process the information.

"I just came to show you that I didn't fucking chicken out, like you suggested last week!"

Ground Zero, A.K.A Bakugou Katsuki did say that…but she ignored him, thinking that he was just exaggerating and was just using it as an excuse to come to the hospital to take the stitches and take proper care of himself. So he really took that as a challenge!

"Oh my god!" Izuku started laughing.

"What?" Shouto asked.

"He is funny after all!"

"Who? Kirishima?"

"No, Bakugou Katsuki."

"So~ you have a concussion."

"No shit, Deku. I don't to be a fucking doctor to deduce that!"

"Don't be like that, Kacchan." The doctor said, looking down at Ground Zero that was currently laying at a bed in a private hospital room, head and arms bandaged.

"Stop calling me that!" Katsuki snarled, even hurt, he still had enough energy to complain, and yell at people. "This fucking nickname is ridiculous!"

"I think it suits you." She smiled innocently.

"Are you calling me ridiculous, now?!" The blond pro hero roared.

"I never said that, but feel free to interpret the way you want." Izuku teased, green eyes scanning the papers with Katsuki's test results.

"Fuck you asshole!"

"Come on Kacchan, that's getting old. You should update your cursing list, you know."

Bakugou scowled, his red eyes glaring at the quick-witted doctor who effortlessly brushed aside his jabs to focus on analyzing the just-received test results.

It's been almost two months since the first time that they met, and the third time that he came to the hospital after he took off the stitches, everytime that Katsuki came to the hospital the attendants sent him straight to Izuku since the greenette was the only doctor who could handle the explosive hero.

Their exchanges were consistently filled with banter, some (a lot) curses and yelling from Bakugou's part and sassy comebacks from Midoriya's part, however, there was no real bite at their remarks. Eventually, the hospital staff grew used to their dynamic, categorizing it as either friendly banter or a peculiar way to flirt. Whatever it was, the staff no longer flinched when the distant sounds of small explosions reverberated throughout the hospital.

Inwardly, Katsuki refused to acknowledge it, but he found that hospital visits weren't all that bad when Deku was around to keep him entertained.

"Fine, whatever, nerd!" He grumbled, his red eyes still fixed on Izuku. "When can I get out of here?"

She rolled her eyes.

"Given the concussion, it's best if you stay at least until tomorrow for observation."

"Fucking hell!" Katsuki cursed.

"Look at the bright side!"

"Is there one?"

"I have a double shift, so I'll be here to keep you company~"

"Can't you take a hint?" He hissed. "That's even worse!"

"Woah, so rude!" And then, Izuku laughed.

"So Bakubro…" Kirishima started, carefully putting down the glass of beer on the table.

"Just spill it, Shitty Hair!"

Kirishima's red eyes met with Ashido's yellow ones across the table, she nodded at him, just like Kaminari and Sero that discreetly gave him the thumbs up. The red head man always wondered why he was the one in charge of asking for 'information' from Bakugou. The perks of being the best friend? Maybe.

"I…we…" Kirishima corrected himself, because, yes, he is the one responsible for asking, but there is no way that he is taking Katsuki's rage alone if he touched a sensitive matter. "...noticed that you've been going to the hospital…like, willingly."

"So what?" Katsuki frowned, red eyes glaring at his friend. "I decided to listen to your complaints for once and actually go there!"

"Yeah! And that's good!" Kirishima replied immediately. "You are finally taking care of yourself! But…"

They stared at each other for a second, and Mina had enough.

"Something is going on!" She shouted, banging her hands on the table. "You are keeping something from us, Blasty!"

"Fuck off, Raccoon Eyes!" The ash blond man snapped. "Nothing is going on, and even if there was something, I wouldn't say a fucking word about it!"

"See!" The pink woman exclaimed, grabbing Katsuki's shoulders and shaking him. "Something definitely is going on and you are not telling us!"

"Are you…sick, dude?" Kaminari suddenly asked, a worried expression on his face.

"Fuck NO!" Bakugou yelled, shoving the pink woman away from him, and deciding that he should ask for another round of beer, because fuck! His damn friends were out to annoy him today.

"But it's true that you keep going to the hospital." Sero added, looking at the explosive hero. "I mean, you go there even for injuries that normally you would brush off as nothing."

"Last time I had a concussion, Soy Sauce Face! A fucking concussion!" What the hell? Even Katsuki would go to the hospital if he hit his head!

"Yes, I know!" The tape hero continued. "But…" Sero trailed off, trying to find the right words. "Okay! What I mean is, you always go to the same hospital even if you get injured on the other side of the city!"

Katsuki frowned.

"So what?"

"No one goes to a hospital on the other side of the city when there's a really good one just around the corner!" Sero threw his hands in the air, exasperated.

"Oh! Come on, Blasty!" Mina insisted. "Just tell us!"

"Yeah! What does that hospital have that the others don't, Bakugou?" Kirishima insisted. "There must be something!"

"I'm telling you that there's nothing goi…"

"Kacchan?"

And suddenly Bakugou froze. There was just ONE person that called him using that ridiculous nickname, and of fucking course he would run out of luck at some point, and he would have to tell his shitty friends about…well…the hospital, but Katsuki decided that the gods hated him, because of all times, it had to be now.

"Jesus fucking christ!" The blond hissed, turning around to meet beautiful green eyes. "Really?!"

"Woah!" The woman faked surprise at his reaction. "Hello to you too, Kacchan."

"Kacchan…?" Ashido repeated dumbstruck.

"You called him…'Kacchan'...?" Sero pointed at Bakugou.

"You call him 'Kacchan'?" The man beside Deku said, taking off the dark blue cap which was hiding his half white and half red hair.

"Yup, I do."

"T-Todoroki?!" Kaminari stuttered, eyes looking back and forth from his friend and fellow pro hero, and the green haired woman who was standing beside him. What the hell? Kaminari felt betrayed now, even Todoroki, that dense excuse of a guy, was on a date?

"What are you doing here, Half and Half Bastard?!" Katsuki yelled, red eyes glaring at the presence of Todoroki Shouto next to Deku. "And why are you with him, Deku?!"

"Usually people go to restaurants to have food, Kacchan." The doctor answered, ignoring the second part of the question, a teasing tone obviously on her voice. "Or did you hit your head so hard last time and forgot?"

"Fuck you! If I had permanent brain damage I would sue for doing a shitty job, Deku!" He retorted, frowning.

"Err…" Kirishima muttered, deciding to ignore Todoroki's presence for a second, because he was not sure of what was going on now. "Do you know each other…?"

"Oh, sorry." The woman apologized, a small smile on her lips. "My name is Midoriya Izuku, I am the doctor who takes care of him," She pointed a finger at the ash blond hero. "when he goes to the hospital."

"Shut up, Deku!" Katsuki exclaimed before the green haired woman could give more information, but the damage was already done.

Todoroki, the only one who probably knew about everything, sighed and started counting on his head.

One.

Two.

Three.

"WHAT?!" Bakugou's friends erupted in shocked disbelief.

Izuku grinned.

Todoroki sighed.

And Bakugou glared at the young doctor.

"Oh, you didn't tell your friends about us, Kacchan?"

Such misleading words, Todoroki thought, but judging by Izuku's grim and the shocked faces of Sero, Kaminari, Kirishima and Ashido, she got the reaction that she wanted from the other pro heroes.

"Well~" Deku trailed off, her voice lilting with amusement, one hand gently resting on Todoroki's back, the other one waving at the still shocked pro heroes, but green eyes stayed focused on Katsuki's red ones. "That's my cue to leave~. See you around, Kacchan~!"

"I WILL KILL YOU ASSHOLE!" He tried to get up. Key word: Tried, because his friends immediately started launching a lot of questions while holding his shirt (Pinky) and arms (Kirishima).

"Such a heroic sentence." Shouto rolled his eyes, and muttered when they were away from Bakugou's earshot. The doctor laughed at that. "I don't think that being threatened is funny."

"That was not a threat." Izuku replied, still pushing Todoroki. "That was only Kacchan trying to hide his embarrassment."

"No, really Midoriya, that was a threat."

"IS THAT WHY YOU KEEP GOING THERE?!" Midoriya and Todoroki heard the only woman at the Bakusquad table cry. "To flirt with a doctor?! Is she your girlfriend?!"

"HAH?! WHO'S GIRLFRIEND?!" Bakugou was really loud. "DO YOU WANT TO DIE?!"

"Bro! I'm so proud of you!" Kirishima exclaimed, crying on Katsuki's shoulder. "But I'm your best friend, why didn't you tell me?!"

"WHAT THE FUCK, SHITTY HAIR! STAY AWAY FROM ME! GROSS!"

"Betrayal!" Came Kaminari's voice. "How the hell Bakugou snatched a girlfriend when I didn't even get a date with Jirou?!"

"SHUT UP PIKACHU! JUST MAN UP AND ASK EARS ON A FUCKING DATE!"

"The world is really ending after all." Sero immediately got his phone, slender fingers typing a message on the Class A chat, while ignoring the chaos that was his friends now. "And I still don't have a girlfriend!"
