TodoBaku, Destiny

Ch. 26

One week post the last chapter

Katsuki's POV:

I was nervously sitting in the kitchen, tapping my fingers on the kitchen island as I waited for the doorbell to ring.

It was finally time to break the news about the very eventful life I'd led the past almost two years. Up until now, I'd been excited to see my friends' reactions, but now I was starting to get cold feet.

The doorbell ringing brought me out of my thoughts, and I found myself sprinting towards the door. I hastily opened it, meeting a very familiar face in the doorway.

"DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS, IDIOT?!" Eijirō shouted, unrestrainedly throwing his arms around me, almost making us fall to the floor in the process.

I returned his hug with a huge smile on my face.

"Sorry for making you worry, Eijirō. I promise I'll tell you all about what happened." I replied, but my voice almost broke as I tried to keep myself from crying.

He refused to let go of me for a good minute, but eventually he released me. He didn't even bother holding his tears back.

"You better have a really good explanation for this!" He paused for a moment. "Also, why is your scent kinda different..?"

I nervously scratched the back of my head.

"About that.. I'll get to it later when the whole bakusquad is here, alright?"

He analysed my expression with a suspicious glint in his eyes, raising one of his eyebrows.

"...Fine. However, you haven't sworn or yelled a single time yet; it's kinda scaring me.." He noted, blinking a couple of times in confusion.

I laughed, but just me laughing seemed to make him even more suspicious.

"Hey! Kirishima! Are you a monster or what?! Who runs that fast?!" I heard a familiar voice yell from outside.

The door which Eijirō had left ajar, was pushed open by none other than Denki; Mina and Sero standing closely behind him.

Mina and Denki rushed towards me as soon as they saw my face, attacking me with one hug each.. but at the same time.

This time I actually fell, but I didn't go down without dragging those two with me.

The whole hallway became full of laughter as I laid there on the floor, Denki and Mina on top of me.

After a while of uncontrollable laughing, the three of us stood back up. I walked up to Sero and we shared a typical bro-hug as he was the more composed of the four.

"Fuc-.. Wow, it's great to see you all again!" I exclaimed, very not smoothly trying to save myself from fucking up. I still hadn't gotten completely used to the non-swearing policy.

"Who are you, and what did you do to Bakugō..?" Denki asked, all four of them looking absolutely terrified.

"Also, your scent is totally different." Mina mentioned, just like Eijirō had done earlier.
