Pop Rocks [Kiribaku]

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Bakugo POV:

Oh God... Why me, of all the fucking people why me? Come on Katsuki, get a grip. Quit being a pussy. You know it's hopeless. Just get up and go get ready so you can see him. I mean... Fuck. Stop that.

I raise my head to look over at my alarm clock and realize it's not even four yet. I didn't have to wake up for another two hours, but here I was, wide awake. I groaned and flopped back onto my bed, but sleep didn't come. I slung my feet off the bed and stomped downstairs. I hope Deku is awake so I can play with him a bit. I'd have to be quiet so he wouldn't hear and come and stop me. I don't know why I let him...

I walk into the common room and unfortunately am the only one there. I grab a bowl of cereal and flop down onto the couch. That dream had been the same one I've had almost every night for months. You see, it was my second year here at UA, and it had been almost a year since moving into the dorms. The dorm right next to my best friend. The dorm right next to the person in these stupid dreams.

I'm standing in the kitchen with chopsticks in hand, flipping some steaks in the pan in front of me. The grease sizzles loudly, and a 'pop' lands on my hand. It didn't hurt, but it still made me flinch, and then laugh. I could make explosions a hundred times bigger, but it was nice to know that I wasn't invincible. I'll admit that sometimes I need reminding. As I flip another steak, I hear the front door open. I hear a pair of keys jingling in the other room, and shoes being scuttled off of feet. Before I know it, large arms snake their way across my stomach, and a head of red hair appears on my shoulder. I smile, leaning into the warmth before turning my head to gaze into fiery ember colored eyes. I stretch my neck out and tilt my head as he does the same, and right before our lips connect...

I wake.

The sound of quiet footsteps approaching snaps me out of my memories. I turn to see a sleepy looking black haired boy shuffling across the common area on the way to the kitchen. He didn't even see me as he walked by with his eyes almost completely closed, glazed over with sleep. As I turned back around I hear the water from the fridge being dispensed, and a slow shuffle coming near. I turn just in time to see Hanta Sero notice me, his eyes widening as he finally could see properly, coming to a sharp halt, before resuming their scuttle to flop down next to me on the long couch, glass of water in hand.

"The fuck is up with you Elbows" I say, not caring about how rude I was being. Why would I? This was Sero, he was used to my brazen comments.

"Coul'nt sleep" he said, speech slurring as he took a long sip of water. He rested his head into one of his hands before regarding me.
"What about you?" He questioned.
"None of your business" I retort, scoffing. Shoulda known better than to assume he'd drop it that easily.

"Thinking about him again?" He asked, raising his eyebrows questioningly.

"No, now leave me alone" I snap, taking a large bite of my slightly soggy cereal, trying to conceal the heat that seeped into my cheeks.

"Uh huh. Yeah, sure Bakugo. Your face is as red as his hair. Did you have another dream?" He asked, cocking his head at me. I know Sero, and, though I would never admit it, I trusted him. I trusted all of the Bakusquad, they all knew my secret. Well, except for one...

"Yeah, ok, I did." I said, glaring at him through the blush on my face.
He giggled, a stupid sound on its own but mixed with sleep was just a bit ridiculous.
"God, I'm going to bed. Enjoy your loneliness Horse Face" I say, standing up and walking over to the kitchen to clean my bowl. As I walk up the stairs, I hear a quiet voice, perfectly clear, say,
"You should tell him Bakugo. He should know," before I trudged up the stairs, walking to my room.
