Serendipity Chapter 44: Conclusion Has A Nice Ring To It

You sighed heavily again, distracted by the conversation you had overheard in the cafe. 

“I think I just need to have a good talk with Izu and make sure we’re on the same page.” You thought as you aimlessly shuffled papers on your desk. 

A voice at the door drew your attention. 

“H-hey there sexy.” They said in a nervous but appealing voice. 

You looked up. 

Deku was leaning casually against the doorframe of your office with his arms crossed across his chest and one leg gently crossed across the other with the toe resting on the floor. 

He had on some pretty neat looking sunnies and at first you were just in awe but then you remembered that he just called you ‘sexy’

“Izu?! Y-You just called me…sexy???” You stuttered.

“Umm well… I think you are?” He said slightly bashfully, pulling the sunnies down a bit so he could look over the top of them with his emerald eyes. 

The hot as hell vibes you were getting from him in those sunnies coupled with his timidness just didn’t really seem to match and it was doing all kinds of things to your heart. 

“He’s like…sexy shy? Bashfully confident? I can’t deal with this! IT’S ADORABLE!” 

Then you recalled the sobbing girl from the cafe and your face fell. 

‘He started hanging out with old friends and changed a bit…before he broke up with me…’  that’s what she had said right? Izu is doing the same thing!…” 

“Izu….c-can we talk?” You asked as you stood up slowly from your desk, biting the inside of your cheek to stop yourself from tearing up.

“Is something wrong Y/N?” He asked hesitantly, concerned that Kaminari’s advice wasn’t going how he had planned it. 

“Well not wrong…I don’t think…I hope not… but we need to chat, I think?” You replied, looking down at the floor. 

“O-oh ok?” He said, pushing off the wall and walking into the room. “Did you want to chat now?” He asked, stopping in front of you. 

Your heart rate increased. 

“Uh… ummmm no, no, we can talk at home.” You said, quickly backing down. You didn’t want to risk bawling your eyes out at work if things went south. 

“You know I love you right, Y/N?” Deku said lowly. 

You nodded but you weren’t convinced. Was he just trying to lessen your pain for now before breaking up with you later? 

You nodded sadly, still staring at the floor. 

Deku was confused as he left your office and went back to his own, sighing as he closed the door behind him. 

“These glasses were supposed to add to my confidence and help me to look a little sexier but it seems to have made Y/N sad? I’ll make it up to her this afternoon, I’ll be so smooth and cool she’ll be blown away!” He thought confidently. 

……………………..

The walk home was somewhat silent and the tension and awkwardness only grew the closer you got to the house. 

“Here let me get the door.” Deku said quickly, stepping ahead of you and opening the front door to usher you inside. 

He still insisted on wearing the aviators and he pulled them down and winked at you as you passed him. 

“Ok. What’s going on?” You blurted out, spinning around to face him once he had entered the house and closed the door behind him.

“What do you mean?” He asked innocently. 

“The glasses, the dinners, the sneaking around, the suspicious happenings. Izuku. I need to know what’s going on. We need to talk! Please! I can’t take this anymore!” You said, exasperated. 

Deku’s broad shoulders slumped and he took the glasses off and put them on the small table near the front door, his gaze falling sadly to the floor as he sighed. 

“Ok….” 

You inhaled sharply and held your breath. 

“Here it comes!” You mentally steeled yourself. 

“I’m so sorry…nothing is working…” he started sadly. 

“Nothing is working? As in…working out between us??” You thought as tears welled up in your eyes. 

“I’ve tried a few times now and every time…”

“Tried what? To break up with me?” You bit the inside of your cheek hard. 

“I can’t keep going on like this…” Deku said, his pleading eyes looking up and meeting yours.

A tear escaped and rolled down your cheek. 

“Y-Y-Y/N!! I’m so sorry please don’t cry! I never meant to make you cry!” Deku pleaded, “I never meant to draw things out for this long but after Todoroki and then Kirishima and the Kaminari…I knew I just had to make the decision on my own.” 

“Izuku if you’re going to break up with me just say it but then let’s talk please? I need to know why and if we can fix it… you know I’d do anything to save our relationship.” You cried, breaking down and sobbing, burying your face in your hands while the agony of your own words racked your body. 

“W…what???? WHAAATTT???” Deku cried. “Y/N, I’M NOT BREAKING UP WITH YOU?!” He said as he fell to his knees in front of you and wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you in for a hug as he buried his curly head into your stomach. 

You removed your hands from your face and sobbed softly while wiping your eyes. 

“Y…you’re not?!” 

“No!! Y/N! I…” He pulled back from you and pulled one leg up so that he was in a one legged kneeling position. “I…love you, and I never want to be without you…” he reached into his back pocket and pulled out the small navy ring box. 

You gasped when you saw it and burst into tears again. Happy tears this time. 

“Please Y/N, would you be my wife? I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to have a family, grow old and spend every moment of our lives together. Please say yes? I can’t see a future without you in it.” He pleaded as he popped the lid open. 

You had tears streaming down your cheeks and you were bawling so hard you could hardly speak. 

“P-please?” Deku pleaded, he was still worried you might say no because you were mad at him. 

“YES!” You screamed. “YES, ONE THOUSAND TIMES, YES!” 

“Oh! REALLY?!” He cried with delight, bursting into tears himself as he pulled the ring out of the box and took your left hand, sliding it effortlessly onto your ring finger. 

“Izu it’s beautiful!” You sobbed, holding your hand up to admire the gorgeous ring through teary eyes. 

Deku stood and engulfed you in a thankful hug, still crying happily. 

The two of you sobbed and commented on sporadic things that had happened recently, laughing with relief at how silly you had both been. 

“Thank you for saying yes, Y/N.” Deku said, kissing you passionately after wiping your tears away. 

“Are you crazy! Of course I would always say yes! Thank you for asking me! My fiancé.” You replied coyly.

Deku blushed. “I-I like the sound of that word.. but I can’t wait to be able to say… wife.”
