The U.A. students crowded around their balconies during the evening as they heard the sound of yelling coming from the fourth floor, followed by what sounded like crying and the slamming of a door, multiple times. After the shouting match seemed to be over, some of Class 1A met in the common room to discuss what had just happened.

"That was Kirishima and Bakugou, right?"

"Yeah, they're obviously fighting over something."

"What would Kirishima and Bakugou fight over, of all things?"

"Well, we're talking about Kacchan, maybe Kirishima-kun finally had enough of him being a little b-"

"Midoriya!"

"Sorry!"

"Look, let's just drop it and we can figure out what happened tomorrow, okay?"

"Yeah, sounds good."

-the next morning-

Kirishima and Bakugou's mouths had both been taped up by Sero. Nobody wanted to deal with them yelling at each other that early in the morning. Someone told Aizawa and he didn't allow either of them to speak for the duration of class so they wouldn't cause a scene. And that worked until P.E.

All Might took them out to the field to do some endurance training and Bakugou and Kirishima finally got the tape off. They started yelling at each other, and their words were indistinguishable in seconds. They were both in a fighting stance until All Might held them apart. Literally. He carried them to his office. "What's wrong, young men? Can't you talk this out?" he asked, his tone soft and calm. 

"You know how nobody ever sets boundaries for what I call them? If there aren't any boundaries, there's nothing for me to cross. Well, I set some boundaries for this idiot over here, and he crossed them!" Bakugou started. "You won't tell me what's going on with you!" Kirishima interjected. "Bakugou-shounen, tell me, is everything okay?" All Might asked. Bakugou looked down, embarrassed. "I hate... I hate being touched sometimes... it's diagnosed as haphephobia. And I told Kirishima I didn't want him to touch me, and I didn't tell him why and..." He crossed his arms. 

"Bakugou, I didn't know... I'm so sorry!" Kirishima said. "Kirishima-shonen, I get that you mean well, but please, respect your classmate's privacy," All Might said, and Kirishima nodded. He turned to Bakugou. "Bakugou-shonen, please communicate more with your friends," he said. Bakugou nodded. 

When they got back to their dorms, Kirishima sighed and said,"Bakugou, I promise I'll give you your space when you ask for it." Bakugou nodded and thanked him.
