Chapter 2

   A.N- I don't know what Kirishima's mom is like. Sorry if I offended people by not being able to portray her correctly.

A few minutes later, my mom came to pick me up. She had a worried expression and she didn't speak until we were at the doctor's office. She parked the car and looked at me. Her eyes seemed to be searching my expression. I shot her a toothy grin. "Don't worry mom, I'm fine."

  "I know Eijirou but it's hard to worry when my son is coughing up flower petals. The school nurse told me that there is little known about the disease except that if it's left untreated then it could kill people." Her eyes bore into mine.

  "I guess love hurts?" I tried to lighten the situation. She smiled and unbuckled her seatbelt.

  "Let's go Eijirou."

----------------

  "Take this once every morning and whenever you cough up the flower petals. The side effects mostly depend on the person that has to take the medicine." The doctor told us.

  "Will that affect his school work?" My mom asked but the doctor shrugged his shoulders.

  "Some side effects won't but others might. We've had patients who do very well on the medicine and some who don't. It's different for everyone." He stated.

  My mom nodded slowly as if she was trying to grasp her head around it. I didn't blame her. "Is there another way to get rid of the flowers?"

  "Well, there is surgery and trying to confess your love. It's different for everyone." The doctor told me.

  "Alright. Thank you Dr. Shijiou." (A.N- I randomly came up with a name) My mom and I shook the doctor's hand and we walked out of the room with the medicine in my mom's hand.

----------------

  I stared at the medicine on the table in front of me, as if I stared at it long enough it would tell me the side effects it'll give me.

  "Oh, for crying out loud, just take the darn thing." My mom told me. By the tone of her voice, she was only half serious.

  I nodded and drank it down with some water. I had to stay the night at home but I wanted to go back to school today. "Let's go mom." I grabbed my bag and sat in the passenger side of the car. I looked out of the window and tried to take my mind off of everything. Thinggs are fine now, but what about later? I thought. I shook my head like that would clear it. Then my mom got in and started the car.

  She looked at me. "Are you sure that you want to go?"

  "Of course! Things'll be fine, don't worry mom." I smiled at her and she started to drive away from our home.

----------------

  When my mom dropped me off, it was too early for school to start. She dropped me off early because she had to be at her work earlier than usual.

  It was cold out so I tried to hurry inside and into my dorm so I could maybe get a few hours of sleep but I wouldn't make it to my dorm.

  I walked into the dorm common area and Todoroki, Sero, Midoriya, Kaminari, and Bakugo were sleeping on the couch. I smiled at the sight and I noticed a blanket. I grabbed it and whooshed it over them so they wouldn't be cold but Bakugo woke up.

  "Hm?" He sat up. He looked so cute when he just woke up I couldn't help but smile.

  "Morning sleepy-head." I closed my eyes and smiled.

  "What the heck? What time is it?" He looked around and I turned on my phone.

  "4:27." I told him.

  "Ugh, why'd you have to arrive so early?" He threw a pillow at me. "You must be tired, come here." He reached out his hand and when I walked closer he grabbed me and wrapped his arms around me. Then it started again. I coughed louder and louder until the others woke up. Bakugo was still hugging me, probably trying to sleep and here I was, dying from his cuteness, literally. "Are you okay?" He asked conserningly.

  Kaminari was the first to realize what was going on. "Dude, let him go." His voice was urgent.

  "Why?" He growled. "You're aren't his boyfriend." Bakugo argued.

  "Still. Let. Him. Go." I never heard him spoke that but the situation was really bad.

  "I will when I hear it from him!" Bakugo's grip tightened and it made things worse.

  I coughed more. I could feel the petals in my throat. They were rising and I felt like I couldn't hold them down any longer. "P-Please Bakugo." I managed to get out. It was foolish of me to accept his offer and walk closer. "L-Let me g-Go." Tears were rolling down my face it hurt so much. It felt like my lungs were going to collapse and my throat was going to overflow with petals.

  I felt his arms let go of me and I darted towards the bathroom. I heard footsteps behind me but I didn't want to talk to anyone so I slammed the door shut and locked it before rushing into the stall and coughing up more petals than I've ever seen. I heard knocks on the bathroom door but I didn't move. I couldn't even if I wanted to. I was shaking yet I felt too weak to do anything else except cough up petals. More tears rolled down my cheeks as I tried to control the flowers. It wouldn't stop for what felt like years. Hanahaki didn't care if someone was running out of air and on the verge of dying. I was trying to get out as many petals as possible. Finally, after what felt like years, the coughing stopped. I looked down and realized that there was blood too. I felt like all I could do was curl up and listen to the pounding and yelling behind the bathroom door. I flushed the toilet and unlocked the door while looking down at the ground in shame. I didn't care eho it was and I couldn't take the medicine this close to when I took it earlier. Arms wrapped around me.

  "Kirishima..." Kaminari's voice was ringing through my ears. I looked up and I saw that everyone that was on the couch were now standing near Kaminari. "It's okay."

  "What the heck was that?!" Bakugo's voice rang out. "What is going on here?!"

  "I'm sick." I stated.

  "Yea, no duh. Thanks for pointing out the obvious Spiky Hair." He rolled his eyes but a voice inside me told me that he was worried.

  "Look, it's 5:02 in the morning. School starts at 8:00. Let's get sleep." Sero told us before walking towards the couch and flopping down with a huge blanket.

  "I'm up and now I can't sleep. I can make breakfast for you guys." Midoriya said before walking towards the kitchen.

  "No wya. I'm making breakfast." Bakugo ran towards the kitchen and beat him to it. "I'm a better cook than you. Remember the Easy Bake Oven incident?"

  "Y-You said that you would never b-bring it up again!" Midoriya yelled.

  "That was then." Bakugo growled. I could tell that he was playing around a little like a dog.

  "What happened with the Easy Bake Oven?" Todoroki smiled.

  "N-Nothing!" Midoriya tried to cover Bakugo's mouth but it didn't work.

  "One time, Deku thought that it would be fun to buy an Easy Bake Oven and try it out at his house. Long story short, his house almost burned to the ground. If it weren't for his mom quickly getting water, the apartment building would be gone." Bakugo chuckled.

  "Kacchaan... You said you would never tell!" Midoriya huffed.

  Bakugo ignored him. "The point is I'm a better cook. Now leave." He shooed Midoriya out of the kitchen and looked around for food to cook.

  It brought a smile to my face. They were acting like they were somewhat friends. I walked over to the couch and wrapped myself around with a blanket before the petals would force me into the bathroom again.

----------------

  Apparently I fell asleep because when I opened my eyes, the room was lighter and there were more of our classmates there. People were eating blueberry pancakes with bacon and sausage. It looked really appetizing.

  I sat up, the blanket was wrapped around my head, covering up my hair, as well as the rest of my body. I probably looked like Mr. Aizawa with a thin grey blanket that I could walk in instead of a thick yellow sleeping bag that would cause someone to flop over. I walked into the kitchen to see Sero serving the pancakes. He looked more refreshed than earlier.

  "Morning Kirishima! Want some blueberry pancakes?" He beamed like I didn't almoat die that morning which I was glad for. I nodded before taking the 'hood' off of my head and yawning.

  "Woah! Kirishima! What happened to your hair?" I turned around to see Ochaco trying not to laugh.

  I put a hand on my head and realized that my hair was lying flat. "Probably got rubbed down by the banket." I shrugged and sat down on a spinning chair to wait for my pancakes.

  "Wow Kirishima." I felt a hand on my head. "Your hair deflated." I recognized that voice. I turned around and I saw Bakugo was looking at me with his usual look. I turned around and looked down. The hand on my head disappeared and the chair spinned around and it was facing Bakugo. "Did I do something?" His face looked like he was hurt.

  "No Bakugo, I-" I coughed more and more. I ran but I left my blanket behind. Kaminari ran after me and was helping me with the petals. Not as many came up as last time but it was still painful. I took a pill and sighed with defeat.

  "Dude, you have to stop hanging around him." He sounded as serious as he did earlier.

  "I know but I can't help it. I mean, our dorms are right next to each others'." I looked down and Kaminari sighed.

  "You have to Kirishima. Your life depends on it." Kaminari shook his head.

  "I know. I'll try." I sighed and stood up, ready to walk back to the common room for breakfast. When I did, Bakugo was gone. Why do I feel so disappointed? I sat back in the chair and wrapped myself around the blanket once more as Sero handed me some pancakes.

  This isn't going to be a good day. I can tell.

----------------

  I was glad that I didn't sit near Bakugo. I didn't want to be leaving class because of a few flower petals. I sat on the right of Kaminari and in front of Sero so that was cool.

  When the last class was over, I was the only one in the classroom, or so I thought. A hand touched my shoulder and I knew that it was Bakugo.

  "Are you avoiding me?" He asked seriously.

  "N-No." I maneuvered my shoulder so his hand would fall off but he put it back, his grip tighter.

  "Kirishima, you can't lie to me." It was.so weird hearing him talk like this.

  "I don't have time right no-" A cough inturupted my sentence. At this rate, I'll barely be able to get three sentences in. "I-" cough "Have-" cough "To-" cough "Go." I rushed out of the mostly empty classroom. The hallways were empty except for the few slow students. I ran away from Bakugo but his footsteps kept getting louder and louder. My coughs were making me slower, even though I never would've beaten him if I didn't have this disease.

  "Kirishima! Stop ignoring me!" Bakugo growled. He was mad now. I ran outside which was a mistake. Bakugo used his quirk to get closer until he was basically breathing down my neck. He tackled me to the ground. "Are you dating Kaminari?!" His face was covered with anger.

  "Wha... No! He's a friend!" At that moment, the petals were gone.

  "Then why did he order me to let you go this morning? Or told you to ignore me?!" He snarled. His voice was heavy with emotions.

  Shoot... "It isn't how it seems. I promise. I ca-" I started coughing again. Bakugo suddenly disappeared and Sero and Kaminari took his place.

  "Let's take you to the nurse's office." Sero told me before they lifted me up by my arms and took me to Recovery Girl's office, leaving Bakugo behind.
