Bakugou X Kirishima's sister (Reader)

Chapter 27

The light from the moon was the only thing that kept you out of the darkness. Katsuki never said where you were going. He only led you out of the house and into the town, towards the beach you went to the day before. You both walked in silence as you passed the stores along the boardwalk, walking through the beach until you made it to the other side. The sand changing to dirt and grass, trees covering the land in front of you, but you kept walking.

"What's with you and forests?" You couldn't stop the question as it left your lips.

"Tch, this is hardly a forest." He didn't turn around but kept his pace as he weaved you through the trees.

Finally, he stopped, as the trees began to thin out, and over his shoulder you could only see the dark sky as it met with the ocean, the two almost indecipherable. You weren't sure how he found this place or when he had the time to, but there was a small wooden fence built along the edge of the cliff which stood over the dark water. It was probably beautiful to look at during the day, but here in the dark it was almost chilling. One wrong step and you could fall into the deep, almost black water below.

Standing next to him you automatically reached for his hand, leaning forward slightly to look over the cliff, "What's with you and taking me to creepy places at night?"

He scoffed at you, "What do you mean creepy?!" he tried and failed at keeping his voice level.

"Just looking at this place makes me like ninety percent sure you're actually trying to kill me this time. Or are we here to think again?" you smirked up at him.

"Will you shut up?" he shut his eyes, letting go of your hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, probably contemplating why he was dating you at all. Dropping his hand, he reached for your wrist, "Just get over here," he pulled you to him, wrapping his arms around you and resting his chin on the top of your head.

You stood there a moment, in silence, relishing in the way his strong arms felt around you, before you spoke, "So why did we come out here?"

He sighed, "Is it wrong that I just wanted some alone time with you?"

"No," you said the word slowly, elongating it as if you were unsure.

Neither one of you spoke for a bit, the only sound was the waves crashing against the rocks below, trying to climb up the cliff before gravity pulled them back down.

"I can't keep lying to Kiri," his tone serious but he didn't sound upset. "You need to tell him. Soon."

Your chest felt tight at the thought of how that conversation would go. Eijiro rarely got mad or angry, but you knew that this particular topic would definitely throw him over the edge.

"Just let me figure out what to say, okay? I just don't want him to be upset." You frowned, it didn't matter how much time you had, you knew there was nothing you could say to him to make it okay.

"You get the rest of this week. If you haven't told him by the end of the trip, I will." He didn't sound angry, just stern, letting you know he was serious about what he said.

You didn't respond, just closed your eyes and leaned your head back against his chest as you tried to envision telling your brother.

"You don't have to be afraid of things changing," his voice was softer now, trying to make you feel better about the situation. His arms tightening around you. "He may not be happy about it, but things won't change. Between him and I," he tilted your head to look at him, "And between you and I."

"You promise?" you turned to face him, not breaking the eye contact he made.

He rolled his eyes, making your question seem ridiculous. "I promise. Everything's going to be fine. So, stop worrying dumbass." He grabbed your chin, pressing a kiss to your cheek, trying to get rid of that nervous look on your face. Stopping only when he saw your expression relax. "Alright, we should get back before your parents realize we left."
