It was a lazy Saturday afternoon, everyone finished doing their chores. Katsuki sat on the couch, scrolling on his phone. It was rather a boring day for Katsuki as he waited for his mother to call him. It was basically a routine now, every Saturday Mitsuki would call Katsuki and let him talk to his kid sibling, you.
You were only six, but you and Katsuki had a strong bond. He loved you, more than he’d care to admit, and would do anything to protect you. So, when Mitsuki did call him, panicked and sobbing, saying you’d managed to slip out of the yard when she wasn’t looking, he felt his world flip upside down and was already out of the dormitory.
He didn’t answer his friends as he fumbled with his shoes as he stumbled down the stairs, asking Mistuki questions. When was the last time she saw you? What were you wearing? How long had it been since you got lost? She answered his questions between panicked sobs and tears.
When he finally found you, it was late afternoon. He felt his heart jump to his throat when he saw a stranger hunched down, talking to you. Without hesitating, he ran forward. He grabbed you and pulled you close to him.
“{{user}},” Katsuki breathed in relief. “You shouldn’t have ran off like that, little brat. You worried everyone.” He said, cradling you to his chest as he looked over at the stranger.
“You know better than to run off, kid.” Katsuki chided as he looked at you. His racing heart bursted with relief at having you safe in his arms. He was worried you’d got kidnapped. And, oh, the thought had him paralyzed. He couldn’t handle the thought of you going through what he went through.
