《Growing Old》Hearing
Advertisement
Izuku wrapped an orange scarf around his neck, puffing up the collar of the coat he adorned. He sat on the edge of the comforted bed. Slipping on his red high tops and tying them.
It had been a couple of days since Todoroki stopped by, and ever since then Izuku has felt better emotionally wise. Bakugo has commented/wrote about that, pointing out the hint of a smile on the greenette's lips.
He left the room, grabbing the bag of food for him and Bakugo. He left the house, locking the front door before walking down the sidewalk to the bus stop.
It was pretty cold at the moment, and the man rocked back and forth on his heels to keep some movement going. The bus finally arrived and he hopped on, curling in on himself when he sat down since it was still cold.
He bounced his legs, becoming impatient. When the bus finally stopped at the hospital, he jumped up, thanking the driver and booking it to the building. He didn't need to check in, which he was very thankful for. The doctors and nurses made sure he was allowed up to Bakugo and he never stopped thanking them for working their "magic".
He walked to the elevators, and rode to the floor Bakugo's room was on. He took a deep breathe when he left the elevators, walking down the sleek bright white halls. He made it to Bakugo's room, knocking before he walked in to make sure, that if there were a doctor in there, he was known.
"Morning, nerd." Bakugo greeted.
Izuku jumped back in surprise, dropping the bag of food. He stood there, staring at the blonde, who had a soft smile on his face.
"Y-You can-" Izuku was cut off.
"I can hear. Loud and clear."

A sob escaped the greenette's lips and the tears started flowing out of his eyes. The blonde couldn't tell what kind of tears they were, but he assumed it was either a cry of relief or joy.
Bakugo sat up in the hospital bed, stretching as he got off of it, "Come on, Deku. That's not what I wanted the first thing to be heard from you."
"I-I'm Sorry." Izuku stammered, quickly wiping his eyes.
"No, hey. Don't be." Bakugo corrected.
The blonde enveloped Izuku into a hug, holding him like he was protecting him from the world around them. Izuku let his tears run dry, looking up into Bakugo's crimson orbs.
"Hey." Bakugo greeted, wiping the dry tears from Izuku's cheeks.
"Hi." Izuku whispered back.
The greenette grabbed Bakugo's head, tilting it from side to side and turning it slightly to look at his ears. The blonde didn't have hearing aids, and his ears looked intact and normal.
"They found a healer." Bakugo informed, going to sit on the edge of the bed with Izuku standing in front of him with the food now. "They have to monitor my hearing today but I'm free to go at 6."
Izuku smiled widely, "Want to go to dinner then? I'll get you a change of clothes."
"Are you asking me out on a date?" Bakugo smugly asked, intertwining his fingers with Izuku's and holding them up.
"Maybe." Izuku chuckled, planting a kiss to his cheek. "For now, lets get some breakfast in you."
