THURSDAY.
// 5:00 PM
━━SLAMMING THE DORM'S DOOR OPEN, BAKUGOU stomped his way to his room.
You shot your head towards him and smiled. "Katsu-"
But you stopped midway when you saw the look on his face.
You swore you could feel your heart squeeze.
Worried, Kirishima rushed to you. "L/N? Anything wrong?"
It may have been normal to other people,
But to someone like you who spends almost all day with Bakugou and noticing small things about him would make you see the difference.
What your boyfriend's look that he wore on his face wasn't just anger.
It showed jealousy and sorrow too.
"Yo, L/N-chan?" Kiri slightly nudges your shoulder, cutting your train of thoughts.
"Oh! Sorry. Yeah, I'm alright! I'll go check on Katsuki, he seems off again."
"You go L/N! Before he throws a fit again!" Mina laughs as she pumped her fist into the air.
Bidding them a farewell, you then hastily headed to your boyfriend's room.
Knocking the door, you called him but there was no response.
"Hey Katsuki, what's wrong?" You asked a little louder.
A few moments later, he responded.
"I saw you with the bastard a while ago." His muffled voice was behind the door.
"Oh, yeah. We met up just for a few minutes-"
Until the door opened showing both an angry and sad Bakugou.
"The dickhead told me you were the one who asked to meet with him." He grumpily mumbles.
Although it was obvious that it was a lie.
Because honestly, why would you meet up with someone as pain in the ass as Akihiko anyway.
Yes. He clearly had nothing to worry about-
"I did. I asked him if he was free." You straightforwardly replied.
And that made Bakugou's eyes widen, catching him off guard.
"What?" His voice cracked, slowly feeling anger boiling in him.
That was when you thought he misunderstood something by the look on his face and how he sounds.
"Oh wait! But hear me out, see I just wanted to-"
"Why didn't you tell me?" He raised his tone.
The fact that you didn't bring up Akihiko when he asked if you were busy yesterday bothered him.
It bothered him a lot.
His ember eyes pierced right through your soul, giving you slight goosebumps.
"I didn't tell you because I knew you'd get angry and wouldn't let me talk to him-"
"EXACTLY! I'm your fucking boyfriend Y/N- And the fact that you met up with the bastard who obviously had... had feelings for you- IT FUCKING SUCKS." He shouts.
Blood boiled through his veins as he was pouring out a bit of his heart's burden.
You furrowed your brows as you slowly felt scared of him- but you quickly subsided that feeling.
"And so you're telling me I can't meet up with him?"
"Yes- ah wait... I don't know! It could've been better if I went with you!"
"I may be your girlfriend Katsuki but listen, what happened in between him and I was something I needed to solve. Just let me explain-"
"NO NEED! I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND NOW- SO YEAH, YOU LIKE HIM BETTER?" He hesitated.
And that made your heart crack. "No! It isn't like that-"
He cuts you off again with a forced and sarcastic laugh, "Oh don't worry! I'm perfectly fucking fine! Yeah you could have been happier with him, I guess!"
He raises his hand, wanting to run his fingers through his hair-
But he stopped midway before it reached his hair when he saw you flinch.
Widening his eyes, he snapped back to reality, realizing the shit he was spouting.
He was bottling up a lot of pent up anger not only of Akihiko too so he didn't know what he was doing at all.
He was blinded by anger and rage.
"You... You thought I was going to hit you, didn't you?" His voice cracked, eyes drooping.
Almost immediately did you shake your head, denying the fact.
But your dismissals went deaf to his ears.
He felt so ashamed. Ashamed of himself.
"Y/N." He called out your name making you meet his eyes.
"Leave." He mumbles in a soft whisper.
Oh how Bakugou wanted to pour out the hot tears that swelled by the corner of his eyes.
Your face dropped, pain washing over you. "Ah... o-okay. Um well, if you need me, I'm just a call away."
You forced a smile before walking away, trying your best not to look back and hug him to scurry his troubles away.
You knew he needed this. Perhaps some time alone.
When you left the dorm's hallways, Bakugou was alone.
Like how he originally has been.
He then went back inside his room with his head down.
Pressing his back into the door, the blonde boy slowly slid to the floor.
And then, he fell apart.
. . .
A day after, the whole class noticed the atmosphere in between you and Bakugou.
It may have been awkward to others but it really wasn't for the both of you.
Because if anything, it wasn't awkward. It was quite... suffocating and hard to deal with.
The Bakusquad looked in sadness at the both of you.
"Look at them..." Mina frowned.
Sero was also bothered. "What exactly just happened."
"It's scary as hell how Bakugou isn't loud today too." Kaminari grumbled, showing a worried face.
The three nodded, knowing it really was unusual.
Especially how you weren't as hyper and energetic today too.
Kirishima, unlike the other three, was beyond pissed and affected by this.
Because he could clearly see how you and Bakugou were acting like- strangers.
. . .
Until the day of their hero license exam came.
(A/N: Once again, I won't be putting the fights into detail because it takes time and because I'm no good at it hehe. Sorry!)
There were different schools from all over Japan that had extraordinary students, brimming with character and potential.
You were nervous as hell but the girls and the Bakusquad were there for you.
Well, except for a certain someone.
Oh how badly you wanted to approach and wish him luck- but you just couldn't find the face to.
Although, you knew he'd do fine. There wouldn't be anything of the matter right?
And soon enough, it began.
Unsurprisingly, Bakugou went solo but Kirishima and Kaminari decided to cling on him just because they were worried.
After all, he has no leash (aka you) at the moment to hold him back from doing any possible irrational antics.
Despite the want to join the blondie, you stayed behind with the rest of the group because you knew you'd only be a hindrance to him.
Either way, it worked out fine.
You even got to use your ultimate attack that gave you and your classmates the chance to counter.
After that, the next round began.
It was quite hectic but you managed to pull through.
If it wasn't for the help of your boyfriend, that is.
While you waited for the results, you couldn't help but remember the way he came to your rescue again.
You were independent and it was obvious that you could handle yourself fine.
But the lingering feeling of concern would always still wash over the boy.
Earlier at the second round, he suddendly found himself always look for you. And from a distance, he'd keep an eye on you too.
And so, because of that, he was able to save you from the one time where you were caught off guard.
You could still remember how he looked that time.
It seemed like he didn't care- and you didn't want to brag but- the look of worry passed by his face for a moment.
And you were right.
It took all ounce of him to stop himself from approaching and scolding you again for being too careless.
But for now, he'd keep a distance. Only when he's in his right frame of mind will he able to find the courage to face you again, or at least so he thought.
Then, the announcing of scores began.
A huge board was there, showing who passed.
Unconsciously, you found yourself trying to find Bakugou's name first before you did with yours.
And before you could do so, Mina exclaims, "Good job L/N! We passed!" She squealed.
"Congrats to you too Mina! You did so well." You laughed back.
Until Sero joined in before whispering, "Is it just me or is Bakugou's name not mentioned?"
. . .
Evening came and most of your classmates lounged in the living room.
While they chattered non-stop, you paid no attention but to the game holding a stressful and worried look.
Obviously it was because of Bakugou.
After all, he... didn't pass.
And that worried you to hell.
Even though you were playing- which would usually ease off your stress- it didn't seem like it was working.
Just the sound and sight of digital explosions on your screen will take you back to Bakugou.
Or how you could see him from swears, red eyes and blondies.
That was until, right from the corner of your eye did you see Bakugou pass by Midoriya.
You widened your eyes in surprise.
Because it seemed like the blondie said something that made the poor freckled boy look horrified and nervous.
You wanted to meddle in and help them out if anything was of the matter, but you decided to stay put and stop minding his business unless he calls you to.
It past everyone's bedtime but you being you, stayed wide awake.
Not only can't you sleep because of your addiction of games, it was because your worry for your boyfriend too.
Until a huge explosion erupted from the distance.
You jolted in surprise.
Taking off your headset, you looked out from your window and saw the explosion coming from, what you assume, Ground Beta.
You furrowed your eyebrows in nervousness and concern.
A villain attack, perhaps?
Like the good ass student you are, you decided to check it for yourself just to ease your doubts.
Looking for Aizawa, it seemed like he was quickly on his way too.
He noticed and wore a relieved look, "L/N! Oh thanks the heaven you came down!"
"What happened sir?"
"Midoriya and your pomeranian boyfriend. Come on, you're dealing this with me." Then he started to leave making you follow, still hella confused.
"Wh-what?! Is Katsuki okay?"
"Why don't you ask the motherfucker. And if anything- the millionaire question here is, are you both okay?"
You flinched. "Um... Well, we had a quarrel..."
"Oh for fucks sake. Fix it." Aizawa grits his teeth.
"But I'm still giving him enough space and time!"
"He had more than enough L/N." Aizawa looked at you dead in the eye making you waver a little.
You frowned and looked down while running.
If it got this bad- if he felt this bad- he should've approached you.
But... you had no right to demand him to open up anyway.
And that feeling sucked.
You thought both you and Bakugou already trusted each other.
But it seemed like he has yet to give his trust to you.
Or perhaps there was some other reason that you did not know? Some other reason that he didn't want you to worry?
That was when you both saw All Might and two other boys that were Bakugou and Midoriya. It looked like the fight cooled down.
Before relief could get into you, your heart sank from the pits of your stomach.
There, you saw Bakugou with bruises and a scornful face, looking away.
Until he noticed you and almost immediately did he cover his surprise and joy that you came.
That wasn't the only thing he noticed- you wore a sad and slightly frustrated look.
You stood there, in front of him as both of your eyes locked into each other's.
After a few moments, you opened your mouth.
"Why?" Your voice cracked a low whisper that came out to be a mumble as tears of worry threatened to fall from the corner of your eyes.
At first, Bakugou thought what you meant was,
Why were you angry? Why did you attack Midoriya? Why did you leave the dorm, past crufew?
But when he got back to his room covered in bandages, that was when he realized.
You wanted to ask,
' Why did you hide the burden? '
It seemed like you found the other reason about All Might that he was hiding.
"Hah.. Of course she'd already notice this fucked up bullshit in me... She'd... always- see right through me."
The blondie chuckled before tears fell from his eyes.
"Sh-shit... I miss her."
Until his phone notified a text message.
