Worrying about shit that doesn't matter. [ That's what Katsuki figured, and to hear the other say it like that. Lay it between them in layman's terms, where he can't deny the way that he feels himself - in that, he thinks of Izuku just as much as the other does regarding him. If not more, and that bothers him - churns his stomach inside out some more, because that means there is more to this than what meets the eye.
At least for Katsuki, because some part of him is disgustingly glad that Izuku can't bear the idea of seeing him hurt again. Not in a cynical manner, where Kastuki would ever put his own life on the line - no, there is some intrinsic idea. If Izuku feels this way, it means deep down, Izuku is seriously considering wanting to be at each other's heels, always wanting to choose the other. Into the horizon, that even looking back to make sure they catch up - matters too.
He doesn't think Izuku sees him as lowly. At that moment, he just understands that Izuku is afraid of the same primal thing that Katsuki is starting to understand more of.
I don't want to fight for a world where someone like you cannot exist. (headcanon) To match, Izuku's - he cannot imagine a world where Katsuki doesn't exist. (canon) ]
Izuku. [ A beat. ] Look at me.
[ If he looks and meets his gaze, Izuku will see a calmer face not one glaring down at him and with words to match that say - ]
