Your POV

Stretching my arms over my head, I clear my throat and slump into my desk chair with a small frustrated groan. My eyes scrunch up with annoyance as I stare at the question sheet laid in front of me, full of questions that I can't do nor do I understand. A small whine leaving my lips as my brain throbs at the thought of doing more work. A tension headache beginning to form as I hunch over my desk.

Why is homework even a thing?! It's so annoying! School work is enough! Why did Mr Aizawa want us to work even more? This sucks!

With a small pout, I try to soldier through the questions. Using whatever resources I can to make the questions as easy as possible (ignoring Aizawa's note about not using the internet or other ways of information) while filling out the questions in my exercise book. A small hum leaving my lips as I check my phone before grinning. I mentally cheer at being part of the Bakusquad group chat (Denki stole Momo's answer sheet and posted the answers for us).

Thank god for the stealth of Denki Kaminari.

As I quickly copy down the answers and screenshot the picture for safekeeping, even adding the odd note here and there to make sure that it didn't seem that I copied the work, I smile to myself. A happy hum leaving my lips as I lean back into my chair; a wave of relief washing over me as I slam my books shut and place them into the small book holder beside my revision folder that's empty.

Thank for I didn't need to spend an hour on this! Any more time on it and I would have burst into tears and had a little nervous breakdown!

With my homework out the way, I slide out of my desk chair and stretch my arms. A satisfying pop leaving my back as it cracks back into place making me finally relax. Shrugging off my grey blazer, I open up my wardrobe to change into some comfy clothes. My eyes instantly going to my typical baggy hoodie and sweatpants combo, grinning to myself as I shimmy into them and change out of my school uniform into the clothes. A smile on my lips as I slide onto my bed and grab my phone to play an addictive game.

Resting on my bed, with my head hanging off the edge, I swipe through my phone with a small hum. My hair hanging toward the floor as gravity pulls it down. My feet lay parallel to the wall, my legs at a right angle. A giggle leaving my lips as I exit my game and go onto my social media, scrolling through funny videos and food tutorials alike making my stomach whine with need at the delicious meals being made before my very eyes.

Knock knock!

Clearing my throat, I slide off my bed with a small hum, squeaking as my legs end up over my head making me groan. Crumpling to the side, I sort myself out and push myself to my feet before heading to my door and unlocking it with a small smile. Pushing it open, I smile toward my guest who stands there with his hands crossed over his chest and his eyes narrowed with annoyance.

"Bakugo, are you okay? Come in," I ask, opening the door wider for him to walk in with a small reassuring smile before shutting it behind me and grabbing a beanbag for him to sit on making him arch a brow, "You want bean bag? Weighted blanket? I can get us some hot chocolate if you want?"

"Beanbag will be fine," Bakugo hums gently, clearing his throat before flopping onto the beanbag as I sit on the floor opposite him in my own bean bag and send him a small reassuring smile as he looks at his knees, "How are you?..."

"Woah... what's wrong? You never ask how I am when you come over," I ask worried, looking toward him with wide eyes before laughing as he throws one of my stuffed animals toward me, giggling as it hits my face and then bounces into the floor, "Come on, my child, what is that's bothering your pretty little head?"

"Stupid... fucking Deku!" He hisses, taking a deep breath as he breathes through his teeth, resting back on the beanbag and leaning his head back with his hands in his hand, his jaw tensing, "He's so fucking annoying! How the hell dad he manage to get his stupid hero licence?! I'm a way better hero than that ass will ever be yet I failed! This week just gets worse and worse!"

"What do you mean?..." I ask softly, getting rid of the jokes and the laughs, going into serious mode, knowing how serious it is when Katsuki isn't feeling all that great unless I wanted to upset him further (which meant death in some cases), "Has something else happened?... You need a hug?"

"No... but thank you for the offer," Katuski hums with a small sigh before looking at his hands and looking toward me, "Just arguing with my mom... then Shitty Hair and I fell out over some stupid shit... I'm stuck with icy hot until I pass this stupid remedial course with some dumb chick and bald nerd... I can't go out and do hero work... I'm stuck doing jack shit..."

"Hey, look, everyone has rough days and everyone has rough weeks, it's how you handle it that matters," I explain, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear before checking the time and smiling gently to myself, "Come on, let's go to the gym, blow off some steam and you can get out some of your feelings,"

"You sure?" He asks, taking my hand as I extend it toward him and pull him to his feet, the male ruffling my hair as I nod, "Alright then pipsqueak, get ready to have your ass handed to you,"

"There he is! He's back!" I tease, squealing with laughter as he hoists me over his shoulders and leaves my dorm, the male ignoring the confused stares that Momo, Jiro, Todoroki and Midoriya send us as he walks through the common room and out the building, "Put me down you heathen!"

"As you wish," He hums with a smirk, dropping me onto the grass making me squeak and whine as I get grass stains on my sweatpants. Pouting gently, I stare up and him, "What's the face for?"

"My sweats," I whine before squeaking as my face and vision is covered by his callous hand and he pushes me away, "You're so mean to me, Kacchan!"

Rolling his eyes at my teasing, he walks down the path without even waiting for me to catch up. Ogling at his back, I pout to myself and grumble as I wipe off the grass shavings off my knees. The audacity! Knowing he's already grinning to himself, I push myself to my feet and charge after him, jumping onto his back with a playful war cry making him chuckle and hold my legs as we head toward the gym piggyback style.

"Mush! My steed! Mush!" I order, pointing forward making Bakugo roll his eyes and playfully let his hands create little sparks by my ankles making me shriek with laughter, "Bakugo! That tickles!"

Bakugo and I have known each other for a good few years. We first met in middle school when he got partnered up with me to be my tutor for math, English and science to help me catch up with the work (I'm not the smartest cookie in the jar after all). Then, since then, we've been joint at the hip. Sure, I may be quite annoying and sure, I may strike someone as quite weird but I'm probably the only person (other than Kirishima, Kaminari, Ashido and Sero) that he can tolerate!

Plus, I have been blessed with the gift of the trust of Katsuki Bakugo!

Bakugo doesn't just trust anyone, after all. Gaining his trust is a gruelling process, especially when you're someone that always wants to help out. It took me a while, but it's worth having his trust. Knowing that Bakugo trusts you with his vulnerable side is something that I will cherish forever.

Whether Bakugo needs someone to rant at, a shoulder to cry on or someone to share his most deep secrets, I'm always the one he turns to. He knows that anything I tell him will not leave the confines of our dorms nor will anyone find out about it. He knows that I won't mock him or dismiss his feelings or even tell him something he doesn't want to hear. He knows that I know how to handle him in certain moods. He knows that he's safe whenever he's with me.

So, such as moods like he's in now, I often try to encourage him to get his anger out through training or (depending on the time) going out for a run. Katsuki is a rather hands on and physical person, so getting his emotions out through punching and fighting and running was often a decent outlet for him.

Once we arrive at the gym, I slide off Bakugo's back to the floor and push open the double doors separating the outside from the big grand training hall. Grinning gently, I turn on the lights and the heaters (it was freezing cold inside here!) before slipping into the centre of the hall and beckon Katsuki over making him arch a brow and stand in the centre.

"You wanna spar or do you want dummies?" I ask, grabbing a headband from my pocket to push my hair out of my face as I slip off my hoodie to show the vest top underneath, "What are you feeling for, Kat?"

"Hmm... just dummies," Katsuki replies, stretching his arms over his head and bending his knees to stretch his legs before swinging his arms and clearing his throat, "Give me about ten,"

Nodding happily, I kneel down on the floor and rest my hands on the ground. Clearing my throat, I close my eyes as my hands light up with a yellow hue and the ground shakes slightly beneath us. As the ground shakes, I envision ten dummies, pushing my hands into the ground to form them before fluttering my eyes open to see the dummies form. A giggle leaving my lips as I make one of the dummies wave toward him, sticking my tongue out as he bites back a laugh and shakes his head.

With the dummies assembled, I pull away from the ground and stand to the side, resting my hands on my hips as I watch Katsuki begin to take his frustrations out onto the dummies. The male screaming 'die' every so often as he explodes them, every dummy he disassembles I build back up, making them a big more sturdy and durable to help him. Rubble flying across the air.

"So? Wanna tell me about your arguments?" I ask, dodging a big wad of rock flying toward me and sitting down on the sidelines with a small hum, "What did you and your mom fight over?"

"Stupid hag's been on my ass ever since I failed the test," Katsuki grumbles, yelling as he releases a huge explosion against one of the dummies making it combust into flames, "All that woman does is complain and complain! I swear! Then telling me it was my fucking fault for getting kidnapped! I did jack shit!"

"You know your mom's just worried about you, you're more like her than you care to admit, Kats," I explain, making a bigger dummy that is in the same proportion as All Might as Katsuki gets more annoyed and frustrated, "She doesn't want to coddle you, you don't like being coddled either, she doesn't know how to handle it like you don't know how to handle it either,"

"Whatever! And then! Stupid fucking shitty hair and his fucking fuck—" Katsuki shrieks, cutting himself off as he lets a large explosion rip, disassembling all ten dummies in one go making me arch a brow as he stands there panting, the male letting himself rest a tad, "He's so stupid! He can't learn shit and he cheated on his homework! He's so stupid!"

"Not being funny but that homework was a complete shit show," I reply rubbing the back of my neck as Katsuki stares toward me narrowing his eyes, "Kats, some of us don't read ahead like you, Iida, Yaoyorozu, Deku or Todoroki. Some of us just learn as we go along... Kirishima isn't stupid, he's just slow at learning and he prefers having fun over studying ahead like you boring betty's. Maybe, next time, explain the content briefly to him in a way he'll understand,"

"But he's a dunce," Katsuki explains with a groan, pouting toward me as I arch an unimpressed brow, "I'm guessing you copied too,"

"You know I did," I reply sticking my tongue out before shrieking as he hoists me over his shoulders, "Unhand me! This is treason!"

"Thank you, pipsqueak," he mumbles, looking away from me as I lean against his shoulder blade and grin toward him.

"What was that?" I ask playfully, smirking as he grits his teeth and glares toward me, his eyes narrowing as I send him a big smile, "I couldn't hear you? Please repeat those golden words~"

"You're annoyingly stupid,"...

"Pfft! For shame, Katsuki! I lend you my wisdom and you dismiss me like that! For shame!"...

"Get your head out of your ass, lets get back to the dorms. I want some food,"...
