Fearscape: Part 8 (Bakugo)

I walked into the dorms building, and stormed up to my room. After slamming my door shut and locking it, I threw my sweatshirt to the side, and fell down onto my bed. 

I put my ear buds in, and started playing music. Making sure it was at full blast before tossing my phone to the side, and staring up at the ceiling.

I listened to every word that was flooding my ears. Closing my eyes, I felt every hour that passed by. Not caring, I never stopped the music.

I opened my eyes to see that it was dark out now. A song that I didn't entirely like started playing, so I went to skip it. Only to see that I had dozens upon dozens of texts.

They were all from Bakugo. Saying he wanted to talk to me. That he wanted me to meet him in his room. And then asking if we could meet in my room. Which lead to him asking if I was even in my room. Asking for me to open the door.

And then I got another text.

'Teddy Bear.'

I instantly sat up and went to my door. I opened it and stepped out to see Bakugo sitting up against the wall next to my door. He slowly looked up at me, and I could see that he had been crying for a while.

I made eye contact with him, and I saw the fear that was running through his mind right now. He was scared of being left alone, left for good. That I was leaving him for good.

I slowly lowered myself next to him on my knees, and he was trying to hide his face from me.

"Bakugo." I said quietly, and I waited until he looked at me. "I won't leave you." He took in a couple of shaky breaths, before I pinched his shirt a bit, and pulled on it. He got the message and stood up.

"I'm sorry." He whispered to the point, I almost didn't hear him.

"I know." I told him and pulled him into my room.

"I just don't know how to process any of this." He told me as I closed the door and he stood there, hugging himself as he was turned away from me.

"I know." I told him again.

"But I'm trying." He said and I watched his hands grip his shirt really tight.

"I know." I told him and I rubbed his back. "It's okay. Thank you for trying your best." He didn't say anything as he quickly walked over and picked my sweatshirt off my floor and put it on. 

I couldn't help but smile. I didn't realize how much bigger my sweatshirts actually were, until seeing that it was pretty baggy on him too. 

I watched him lay down facing the wall, and I got in beside him.

I laid beside him with my back to him, and put my ear buds back in.

I closed my eyes again. And was about to fall asleep, when I felt the bed move behind me.

I woke up, and looked over my shoulder. Bakugo was laying on his side facing me.

I rolled over to face him as well and he refused to look at me.

I offered one of my ear buds to him, and he took it. We laid there listening to music for a while, until he finally said something.

"Your music taste sucks." He told me and I laughed.

"Well it's my music, so suck it up." I told him and he laughed a little too. I reached my hand up and covered the side of his face with the hood, and held his face in my hand. At least as best as I could. "Are you alright?" I asked him.

"I'm fine." He said, and snuggled into my hand. Even though I could tell he was trying to be discreet about it.

"Bakugo." I said with a more stern voice and he wouldn't look at me. "Talk to me, you know you can."

"I'm just tired." He said. I sighed, and rolled over to my other side to turn my bedside light off.

But I didn't get to turn back over as Bakugo wrapped his arms around me. He pulled me to him and squeezed me really tight.

"I just don't know what I'm feeling right now." He said into my shoulder and buried his face there.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked him, and used my thumb rub his arm.

"No." He told me.

"Okay." I told him.

We laid in silence for a while, and I was almost convinced that Bakugo had already fallen asleep. At least until he spoke up.

"Thank you." He said.

"For what?" I asked him and rubbed my face a little bit, trying to get rid of the tiredness just enough to keep talking to him.

"Being here." He told me. I smiled as I hugged his arms a little closer to me and closed my eyes. "Hey dumbass." 

"Hmm?" I hummed in response, hoping he would say what he wanted to before I fell asleep. But he took too long to respond, and I drifted off to sleep.
