Setting: Modern/High School AU; Theatre Kid Izuku & Jock Katsuki Warnings: Dead Hisashi Midoriya, grief/mourning, slightly out of character Izuku Midoriya, lots of angst before we reach the fluff! A/N: this was written for @au-roulette for the prompt 'Theatre'! Please check out the AO3 collection to look at all of the amazing works that have been created for this event! <3 Summary:

"-and I love- I love- I love you, and wish from this day forth-" "Stop." Izuku's interruption is met with the clicking of a tongue, the rolling of red eyes. "The hell is it now?" Freckled fingers are quick to interlock and squeeze each other tight. "I don't believe you," Izuku admits. A blond brow rises. "It sounds good- great, even, but…" green eyes fall, losing themselves in the heather-grey of Katsuki's tee. "It doesn't sound like you mean it-" "What if I did?" Izuku, distracted when that same tee inches closer, blinks. "Did what?" "Mean it," Katsuki says, voice husky and far too close. "What if I did?" When he looks up, a coal-glow smoulder singes the evergreen of his eyes. "Then you need to make me believe it."

Or: Izuku, content with being the Theatre department's 'script guy', finds himself upgraded to the role of 'teacher' when a prank-turned-audition adds a new student to their roster.

Unfortunately, the student in question is not only the most popular guy in school but Izuku's best friend from childhood. Even worse? They haven't spoken since grief made them strangers.
