Katsuki waits outside his house so he can let Deku in through the front. Like usual his parents are at work so he's left alone free to do whatever he wants after school. Katsuki is sure that his parents know that he's always bringing someone over and that they often spend the night. His parents never ask, they believe that he'll tell them when he's ready but until then they know not to barge into his room when Deku is around.

Katsuki has always wanted to tell his parents about Deku but that would just cause a lot of problems. It doesn't help that his mum still talks to Inko, that woman has been lying this whole time telling her that she took the nerd with her to America. Of course Katsuki knows the truth, he knows that Inko abandoned Deku but that was never a problem for the nerd as it meant he was free to do his vigilantism. 

That's another problem, Deku was Karma. Since it was Deku his parents probably wouldn't care as much but he knew that they would make a big deal out of it. The moment they knew about Deku they would give Inko hell and start a police investigation, starting an investigation would only be a hindrance to Deku and sooner or later his identity as Karma would be found out.

None of this means telling his parents isn't a good idea. Deku having no one to support him and refusing to steal has always gotten money from Katsuki. And where else could Katsuki possibly get all that money except from his parents. It's obvious they know he's been spending a lot of money on whoever he brings around, they definitely didn't like it at first because they thought Katsuki was being taken advantage of, but over time it's become less of a worry since it's obvious no one would stay this long if they were just in it for the money.

Katsuki is thankful for having such understanding parents, he might not show it most of the time but he is. They trust him enough to let a stranger into their house for years and let him spend money on them, if Katsuki could choose anyone to be his parents he would chose them again and again a hundred times over.

Katsuki opens the door as Deku arrives. It's obvious that the nerd is pissed but when he's pissed it's best to not say anything.

They go upstairs to Katsuki's room and he starts to change. Sneaking a few glances Deku's way he can tell that he's been glaring at him this whole time and it's only then Katsuki realises that Deku is pissed at him. That's even worse than him being pissed in general.

Katsuki would have tried to plan his escape except the nerd is standing right infront of the door meaning he has nowhere to run, unless he wants to jump out the window which he's considering doing. Deku's glare intensifies as if reading Katsuki's mind and saying 'don't you dare'.

Katsuki puts on his shirt and before Deku can even say a word goes to hug him.

"I'm sorry." He says hoping that that will calm Deku down a little. It doesn't.

"So you know what you did." Deku says, not pushing Katsuki away but his glare still intense.

"This is about Eraserhead right." Katsuki let's go of Deku and backs up not wanting to be in his line of fire much longer.

"I told you I was fine, you didn't have to go and tell him."

"I don't know what your definition of fine is but nightmares totally aren't it." Katsuki snarls. Deku takes a step forward and instinctively Katsuki takes a step back. "Listen, you can get as mad as you want but I don't regret telling him and I won't ever regret telling him."

Deku continues to glare but doesn't say a word. "I know there are things you don't like telling me that you feel more comfortable telling Eraserhead, I feel the same way sometimes. That's exactly why if you can't talk to me I want you to talk to him, I know he can help you better than I ever can so please let him help you even if it means you hate me for the rest of your life."

Deku still doesn't say anything, just glares but eventually he sighs. "Now I get why you hate the idea of therapy so much. It's scary telling someone all your fears and problems, even scarier to accept those feelings." Deku walks up to Katsuki holding his arms up slightly so he doesn't back away again.

Katsuki is skeptical but let's Deku get close anyway. Deku stops right infront of Katsuki before he smiles, "Talking to Aizawa actually helped, so-" He takes another step forward and wraps his arms around Katsuki and hugs him. "- thanks Kacchan."

Katsuki just stares completely dumbfounded. "Is this a trick? What happened to being mad."

Deku pulls away a little so he's looking at Katsuki's face. "I'm not mad at you Kacchan, I was initially but there isn't a real reason to be mad. I'd do the same thing for you after all, well I guess I kind of did."

"Are you sure this isn't a trick?"

"Why can't you ever accept the fact that nothing I do is a trap." Deku pouts.

"Cause your a manipulative little shit." Katsuki smirks but pulls the nerd closer to him as he wraps his arms around him and plays with his hair. They stay like that for a while basking in each others presence.

"I mean it though Kacchan, thank you." He smirks, "Therapy might actually do you some good as well."

"Like hell it will, I don't and will never need therapy." Deku glares at him but with no real malice behind it, Katsuki looks away, a slight tint of red on his cheeks. "But whatever, your welcome I guess."

Deku let's out a soft laugh before nuzzling his head back into Katsuki's chest. "I love you Kacchan."

"Yh, love you too nerd."
