Soulmates By Choice

[41] Third place

Baku pov.

[Two years later. Sorry Ik it's a huge time skip but anyway]

"You're so lucky you get to graduate at the end of this year" EI sighed leaning into me.

I decided to come visit this spring break, since last summer she came to France. "You only have like a year left, plus I'll be moving back here" I smiled.

"Yea with me" she smiled. "Mhmm" I chuckled kissing her forehead. "Wow it's really just eight more months until you graduate" She smiled.

"Mhm then I'll open my own restaurant someday" I chuckled. "You know you're moms really exited about it" she said putting her head in my lap.

"Is she?" I asked tilting my head. "Yea she's also hella proud, I'm pretty sure the whole city knows you're graduating from the best culinary arts school in the world"

"Yea graduation, but I'm not the only one graduating this year" I sighed. "Hmm? Who else- or right Sezu" she said.

"Mhmm Saisa is lucky she graduated last year" I sighed. "Oh yea her graduation party was so much fun, maybe we should move to Australia it's fun" she smiled.

"Maybe we should" he joked. "Oh but Sezu said he's not having like an official ceremony just a a party" I said remembering our last video call. "Mhmm"

"Hey Suki after you graduate will you come back with us or after?" She asked looking up at me. "hmm I'll probably come back with you guys"

"I just need to have my stuff shipped here like a week before graduation because we'll be at some last cooking retreat" I said mostly to myself.

[Time skip to the graduation]

Kiri pov.

I smiled as I saw Suki walk on stage with his red graduation cap and gown.

Kiri- you look so handsome

Baku- you say that like you didn't steal the spotlight when you walked in.

Kiri-Yea right now focus. Don't want you falling in the middle of the stage.

Baku- I swear it you jinxed me.

We made eye contact both of us chuckling a little. I was honestly really proud of Suki, I wanted to help him grow to be a better person and archive his dreams.

"Graduating top of this year's class we have Bakugo Katsuki" I smiled and probably clapped and cheered more than everyone else.

"Ei you can calm down now" Katie giggled. "Oh right sorry I'm just so proud of him" I chuckled rubbing my neck.

"Yea we all are" Saisa smiled turing around. "I mean is anyone really suprised he was top of the class he's Bakugo Katsuki for gods sake never even seen him come second" Denki chuckled.

"That's actually true" Sero said leaning forward besides his boyfriend. "Really? I mean I knew he hates loosing but damn" Sezu chuckled from besides Saisa.

"Shhh guys listen" Aren said as Suki walked up to the podium for his speach.

"Well. I'm going to try make this quick and Short. I'd personally like to thank my teachers I guess, My mom, there's my friends over there"

He said pointing to where we were seated. "Also just watch me become one of the best fu- mhm chefs the world has ever see."

A few people on the crowd chuckled as he tried to stop himself from cursing.

"But most importantly I want to thank my soulmate who actually encouraged me to come here, work my hardest, she was the reason I worked so hard. So thanks Ei that's it"

I smiled with tears in my eyes. As he began walking off the stage. "Damn she's already crying, just imagine their wedding" Jake teased.

"Note to self make sure Ei wears super waterproof makeup on her wedding and also bring ten packs of tissues" Mina joked at least I think she was.

[After the ceremony]

"Suki" I said jumping into my boyfriend as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "Hey" he smirked and kissed me.

"Awww you graduated" I smiled taking the cap from his head and letting his hair poof out. "I did" he chuckled putting me down.

I put the cap on my own head and smiled leaning in for another kiss when we heard a camera click.

"Omg that's such a cute ass picture" Katie squeeled looking over Mina's shoulder at the phone in her hands. "Lemme see" I chucked and kissed him before moving to Mina's other side.

"Oh send it to me, I'll definitely post it" I chuckled.

"Guess what I just realized" Denki asked comming up to us with the others behind him. "This is Baku's first time being third"

"THE FUCK I WASNT THIRD" Bakugo sais snapping his head away from his mom to us.

"Yea you were" Denki said rocking back and forth. "When?" Suki asked looking at us.

"Well you were third to graduate. Saisa first, then Sezu, then you, next is Me, Mina, Jake, Sero, and Ei tie in forth next year, Katie in fifth the year after and Aren sixth the year after that"

"That doesn't fucking count dunce face" He glared at Denki. "Whatever let's go celebrate" Sezu cheered. Getting cheeres in response from the rest of us.

"Yea Suki you just graduated"
