13 The Truth

"Fuck. Since I can't use my quirk.. You are in a luck today!"

"Alright alright, you don't need to be so mean to me.. Izuku, do you want to eat something in cafeteria?" asked Itsuka.

"Yeah, sure. I am really hungry, but let's take Kacchan with us."

Katsuro waved her hand and said, "Not interested."

Izuku sighed in his mind.

Why is she being so stubborn?

Both of them left the classroom, leaving Katsuro behind.

"I feel like we shouldn't have left without her." murmured Izuku.

"Chill. She said that she didn't want to go. So what's the problem?"

"No.. Like.. She usually does stuff like this. She says she doesn't want to, but at the end of the day.. She still wanted to do it.. So, I am a bit restless right now." replied Izuku.

Both of them entered the cafeteria, and a huge crowd of people entered their sight.

"There is so many people here.. It will take a while till we get to our food." lamented Izuku.

"Don't you worry, come with me!" Itsuka grabbed his hand and together, they went to the chef room.

Izuku still wasn't really comfortable with holding hands since they just practically met, but he didn't want to refuse or else she would be sad.

They arrived into chef's room, and the moment they stepped in, a large fatty emerged in front of them.

"Granpa!"

Itsuka ran into him and hugged him.

"Oh, Itsu. What are you doing here? Are you hungry? Here, I made you some snacks, eat up."

Big fatty gave her some snacks and she happily received them.

"Granpa.. I have a friend here. Can you give him some food as well?" asked Itsuka.

Fatty looked at Izuku and said, "I can give him some snacks, but I can't make him lunch or normal food sweetie. This school has strict rules we need to obey. We can't just arrange food for a student without him, waiting in the line. We would have tons of problems. I am sorry sweetie."the fatty sighed and pat Itsuka's head.

Izuku smiled and replied, "It's fine. Personally, I don't mind. I usually make my food by myself anyway."

"Oh, that's amazing for a kid!" fatty ruffled his hair as well.

"Anyway, I am glad that you visited me sweetie. Here are some more snacks but keep it a secret from everyone okay?"

Itsuka smiled and nodded. "Thank you grandpa!"

After munching on some snacks, they happily returned back.

"Took you a while Deku."

Izuku heard the voice of a devil and couldn't help but shudder.

Katsuro stood in front of their classroom waiting for them to return.

"Come with me Deku!" she grabbed his hand and dragged him on the rooftop.

"Kacchan, can you stop this already!"

"Yes Deku, it's time to stop. Stop talking with that girl Deku!" said Katsuro.

Izuku bit his lip and said, "Kacchan, don't be like that... She is a nice girl, I am pretty sure even you would want a female friend!"

"Hell no, I don't need anyone. It's just our adventure. Me and you. No one else in between. We have always been like that. Just the two of us." replied Katsuro.

"Oh Yeah? And where were you those 4 years you were ignoring me? Huh? You completely ignored me for 4 years without giving me any answer at all. Do you even know how I felt?!"

Izuku clenched his fists and couldn't contain his anger anymore.

This took Katsuro by surprise, she didn't expect that he was still angry about that.

Heck, she didn't expect him to get angry at all. He was always a loser. A kind loser unable to hurt even a fly, but right now, he was shouting at her as he released all of his built up emotions over the years.

Shit, my quirk is so useless sometimes..

He took a deep breath and tried relaxing his mind.

"Kacchan, why did you do it? Why did you ignore me for that long?"

"I-I." Katsuro wasn't able to form a single sentence.

She was sure that if she said the truth it would be too embarrassing for her.

But she won't back off just because she is scared of saying it.

Oh fuck off. What the hell.. Its only Deku. Nothing to be afraid of, besides, I need to ask him something as well.

She readied herself and replied, "B-Because I had to know, i-if you really are m-my soul mate. I wanted to know, how much you care for me, as a person and a friend. I thought that you would stop caring for me after a few days. But you didn't. Instead, when I finally stopped ignoring you, you started crying instead. You really are a weirdo Deku haha." Katsuro beautifully smiled.

It's been a while since Izuku saw her genuine smile. He likes it much more than her usually grumpy face.

But a-a soul mate?! D-Did she really feel that way about me? Wait.. No.. This is Kacchan we are talking about, she is a tomboy, she might have just said it out of the blue without any meaning at all. Thought Izuku.

"I still need to know something Deku. It's about your quirk."

Izuku frowned as he didn't expect this question.

"What do you want to know Kacchan?"

"I know, that it's a personal thing, but I don't quite get why you hide your ability. People are talking shit about you Deku, and I can't say something even if I know that you have a quirk." replied Katsuro.

"I don't know myself, I guess that I just wanted to distance myself from everyone as well. There were other reasons, but the main reason was that I didn't want to have a friend that wanted to be my friend just because of how cool my quirk is. But Itsuka is different, she knew that I was quirkless and she didn't mind at all. That's why I am defending her." replied Izuku.

"I see.. So. He thinks the way I think. We are really similar." murmured Katsuro.

"Hm? What did you say Kacchan?"

"Nothing, we will talk about your quirk later, now let's return to the class or else we won't make it in time.
