You see what your soulmate sees

Bakudeku


All my life I saw what was in front of me and sometimes myself, I hadn't heard of soulmates knowing each other for their whole life but one thing is for certain, it made hero training easier.

Deku always hung around me and as a young boy who thought he was better than everyone because of my quirk and thinking I didn't have a soulmate, I didn't treat him very well.

I can tell you one thing, if he'd jumped, I would have never forgave myself.

During the entrance exam into UA, for one of the first times I couldn't see what I was doing.

I could see the ground and then the zero-pointer and jumping up to save this brunette girl and falling down from the sky. Falling. I kept using the vibrations of the bots to find out where to hit. And then the girl slapped him and he was saved. She saved my soulmate, that was when I knew they were going to be reckless.

Many things occurred and I had to get used to fighting without sight, Deku being more in danger, reckless and school meant I wasn't always in his sight like before.

One time I went to recovery girl and when she asked what kind of injury I had, perhaps absentmindedly, I answered with overstretched tendon and she was shocked that I got it right.

"You couldn't have known that without looking at it", she said.

"Then how do you know?" I questioned, foolishly.

"Oh honey, my soulmate is gone." And with that she fixed it and sent me back to class.

The rescue mission from Deku, Kirishima, four eyes and ponytail was interesting, I was lucky Kirishima called out because all I could see was me, smile and all.

I guess Kirishima's soulmate was sleeping because he seemed to see me just fine.

"You seemed to hesitate in grabbing my hand." Kirishima questioned later when they were all safe.

"If I could've seen you, I would've been faster." I replied back to him.

"You couldn't see me?" He questioned.

"All I could see was my damn self." I said, getting irritated.

"You know that means your soulmate is Iida, Momo or Midoriya. I already know who my soulmate is." Kirishima informed.

"And who's your soulmate." I asked because I could tell he wanted to gush.

"Kaminari. He's just so beautiful." He said, sickeningly sweet.

"But you just see yourself." I told him.

"Not when he's sleeping and besides, when we're holding hands it switches." Kirishima answered.

"Why?" I questioned.

"Maybe the god realized that it would be weird to look at your own face while kissing someone." Kirishima shrugged, "All I know is I appreciate it."

"Yeah, that would be really weird." I said as my face scrunched up.

"So who is yours?" Kirishima said nudging me.

"Stop, I don't know. Besides, it can't be Iida or Momo cause I didn't know them as a child." I answered, not wanting him to think I'd be soulmates with those weirdos.

"Huh?" He said confused.

"As a child, I always saw myself or what I was doing. I thought that meant I didn't have a soulmate cause I was a kid and didn't know any stories like that but as I got older especially the entrance exam I realised I couldn't see what I was doing all the time anymore." I explained to him, realizing who my soulmate was and hoping he wouldn't.

"Wow, looks like Midoriya really is your soulmate." He said.

"Yeah." I grumbled.

Dammit he'll never accept me as his soulmate, a friend maybe but I was so mean to him and... and... I just can't honestly. Looks like I'll have to get used to fighting without my sight.

My beautiful green emerald eyes with which I see with.

It kinda sucks that he's stuck with these red polluted ones.

I remember the times Deku would look into a puddle and I could finally see those eyes I liked so much instead of my own eyes staring back at me.

I didn't like seeing myself so much as a child, it was weird to be seeing myself while doing a task or to be looking at where I knew Deku was and see myself.

Actually, to hell with staying away, Bakugou Katsuki gets what he wants and he was going to start with what Kirishima claimed, would he be able to really see Deku if he touched him.

Would I be able to see his eyes and freckles? Really see them?

So I marched up to Deku and said, "Give me your hand, I'm testing something."

"What?" He stuttered.

"Give me your hand, I'm testing a theory I heard." I repeated.

"Okay, Kacchan." He said smiling as he put his hand in mine.

And I could really see his smile, from my eyes. It was beautiful, he was breathtaking. This was better than I had ever imagined.

"Wow, Kacchan. I can see you." He spoke as he put his hand on my cheek exploring my face.

"And I can see you." I replied smiling.

"Gets a bit weird always seeing ourselves, huh, especially cause you're always looking at me." He smiled cheekily.

"No way, you're always looking at me." I argue as we start to walk to the dorms, neither of us wanting to let go.

So we didn't, until we had to part to go into our rooms.

The next day he comes up to me asking again, "Yesterday was so good, do you think there's a chance we can do it again."

"There's more than a chance, you can sit on my lap, limited time offer." I smirked.

He squeaked and quickly sat in my lap before I could change my mind.

Before we even touched hands, the view switched and I was left staring at him in my lap.

I smiled down at him and said, "Hey do you want to date?"

"Yeah, Kacchan you've always been slow." He started

"Rude." I cut him off.

"You didn't let me finish, it's always been you Kacchan." He finished

"Yeah I know Deku." I smiled.
