You waited by the couch, tending a few passerby birds while waiting for him.

That was when the door opened, without a knock. And you immediately knew who it was.

You turned your head and showed a welcoming smile. "Showing up all of a sudden? I couldn't tell the kids."

A blonde, tall and muscular man with ruby eyes came in and closed the door.

"Shitty brats." Bakugou spat.

The birds flew away while the hero made his way to grab his favorite soda from your refrigerator.

"You call them that but we both know you care for them." You shrugged.

"Yeah well their father isn't here now is he?" He says sarcastically, opening the can.

You frowned. "Can we not?"

"Fuck off woman. Stop being such a pussy and go see him again." Bakugou rolls his eyes.

You huffed. "Do you think it's that easy? I've avoided him all this time and suddendly appearing after 8 years makes me sound shameless and selfish.."

The blonde hero's eyes narrowed your gloomy state.

Truth to be told, he was getting real tired of this bullshit.

And the only reason why he knows where you are was purely because you trusted him the most other than Shoto.

It may not seem like it but you were secretly his childhood friend, a close one in fact. See, you met Bakugou even before you met your lover.

And since you were in a different course, no one knew you had close ties with the arrogant and explosive boy- except for Midoriya since he was your childhood friend too.

You originally didn't want to tell Bakugou where you are.

But for financial reasons, you had to talk to him in secret.

. flashback .

It happened on one summer evening at Bakugou's residence when you both were 20.

"What the fuck.."

Bakugou's widened ruby eyes stares in bewilderment at your frame.

You stood outside his balcony wearing a cap, face mask and a large coat with a hood. All in dark colors.

At that time, Bakugou already owned a popular hero agency that he created.

"L/N..." He whispers in his breath, surprised.

That was when he snapped back to reality and quickly opened his balcony's door.

"Oi idiot! Come in, you'll catch a cold."

So you came in, making him close the door.

Immediately, you pulled the curtains together in every window he had in his room.

After that, you let out a relieved exhale and took off your hood, facemask and hat.

When he saw your face staring at him, it took everything in Bakugou to stop himself from hugging you.

So he clears his throat and crosses his arms, trying to act cool.

You softly send him a smile.

He narrows his eyes, noticing the tired look and state you were in.

"Five years." He spat.

And continues, "Five fucking years and you decided to show up. What now? Given up in hiding, shrimp?"

You chuckled. "I missed you Bakugou. And surprisingly, that nickname too..."

He clicks his tongue. "Cut the bullshit. What are you here for?"

Something ached your heart. But you quickly brushed it off.

That was when Bakugou was caught off guard when you dropped in your knees in front of him.

You put your hands in front and bend down to rest your forehead on top of the back of your palms.

"Oi! What the fuck?-"

"Bakugou! I understand that you're mad and disappointed at me but please! Please give me a job under your agency in secret!" You croaked while squeezing your eyes shut.

Bakugou furrowed his eyebrows. "L/N.."

You felt the urge to cry but you held it in.

"P-please.. please help me.. I have no one to rely on but you.." You sobbed.

Bakugou clenches his jaw before he leaned down and grabbed your arm, pulling you to his chest.

He hugged you in a tight embrace, only making you cry more.

"...There's so many things I want to ask you. Why did you leave? Why are you here? Where were you? How have you been? Have you been eating and sleeping right? I was.. I was so fucking worried about you and the fact that I consider myself as your best friend when I can't even tend to your needs is complete bullshit!"

You hiccup, hugging him tight too.

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry! I'm the bad friend here, I didn't even say goodbye.."

"Idiot." He begins to tear up. "What happened?"

"I... I have kids Bakugou.. Their father is Shoto"

. end .

Bakugou sips his can, remembering the memory three years ago.

And he did help you.

You weren't officially registered as his employee but he did pay you whenever you get jobs done.

You solved every case easily, no matter how difficult it was. And it was all thanks to your quirk.

The wind is everywhere, the ocean can hear, plants can see and animals are witnesses.

So Bakugou ranked up quite quickly because of your help.

And you were paid according how difficult the case is.

You'd help him do presentations and document preparations for him too.

You even put his name as the land owner of your forest as 'his property' when it was a bluff to hide your name.

Even if someone would enter the forest, they wouldn't be able to get to the cottage since natre will block all paths and divert them to another direction away from the heart of the forest- that's where you live.

He was really helpful all this time.

You didn't need to leave the house and instead work at home.

Bakugou and the twins were thankfully close too. He helped them train during his free time.

"Oh and by the way, the shitty old bitch really did left the country." He hissed, referring to your mom.

You flinched. "Ah... Of course. I'm not surprised why she'd leave a problematic daughter. Dad's dead as well."

The sad smile you plastered made Bakugou's blood boil.

"You know if I were you, I'd tell the birds to shit on her." He bluntly spat.

You laughed making him chuckle too.

It's been a while seeing you wholeheartedly laugh out loud too.

"You know, Half-n'-half really misses you."

You smiled sadly. "Does he? Or does he miss the moments we shared?"

"Both." He shrugged, replying in an obvious tone.

"This is getting real fuckin complicated y'know." He groans.

You frowned. "I'm sorry for dragging you into this."

Bakugou clicks his tongue. "Weirdo. You don't need to. In fact, I'm real glad you chose me over weird deku."

"Hey! Stop calling him that. Besides, I knew you before I did with Midoriya even though he's much nicer than you are." You stuck out your tongue.

"Bitch."

You playfully rolled your eyes. "So how's Kirishima?"

Startled, he choked on his drink making him cough and clear his throat as a blush made its way to his cheeks.

"F-FUCK OFF SHITTY SHRIMP."

You furrowed your eyebrows, pouting. "You're such a tsundere. I honestly don't know how I put up with you over the years."

"Screw off. Also, the kids met their father."

He refers the last time he met Shoto when the two-quirked man mentioned then.

You sighed. "I know... I guess it couldn't be helped. But I'm honestly nervous about it.."

Moreover the matter that you were unknown about the fact that the twins are bonding with their dad.

"Yeah no shit, Sherlock. Even the bastard is probably suspicious about them now."

You pursed your lips before mumbling, "Don't call him that... and how long will I be able to handle this?"

Finished with his drink, Bakugou places it down on the counter before sitting beside you.

He then softly gestures your head to rest on his shoulder to which you did and laxed a bit.

"Gonna be real disgusting when I say this but- if you two really are meant for each other, fate will find it's way or something in the lines of that.."

You couldn't even bother to tease and ask him if he searched about it.

So you simple sniffed and murmured a low 'okay'.

But Bakugou really did want this game of hide and seek to end.

For he hates seeing the person he treats as his little sister look tired and in pain all the time.
