Only You

Falling Asleep

Kirishima's POV:

I pull back from Bakugo, my mind going about a million miles per hour.

My eyes open and I watch as Bakugo opens his. He starts talking, "I told you I'd catch you."

Tears fill my eyes, I can't control them, and they fall down. I can't believe this. He loves me back. I can't believe that he loves me back. This is so amazing. It literally feels like I am in a dream...just like he said it seemed like.

"Bakugo." My voice is a whisper, just like his. I don't know what to say.

"Shhhhh. Don't say anything. Let's just watch the sunset." We both turn and look at the perfect sky as the perfect guy wraps his arm around me and pulls me in close to him. Neither of us say anything or think anything until the sun is completely gone and the night sky fills the air.

I turn my head and look at Bakugo and see that he is looking at me, "Hey."

"Hey." A small smile sneaks onto his face. And it makes me smile.

"Bakugo." My voice is still in a whisper, "so what does this mean?"

"It means that I trust you again. And it means that I want to be with you every waking second that I possibly can. And I hope you do too."

I feel my heart start to beat faster and it feels like my entire face is on fire, "I do. I have wanted this for so long Bakugo. I have literally loved you since the first day of school...What about you?"

He thinks for a moment, "Well, I think it may have always been there, but I can't say for sure. But I do know that I wanted to be friends with you and to hangout with you all the time for a while now. I think I just realized lately that it wasn't a friendship that I felt for you, it was this. Why don't we head back to the tent, I am kind of tired."

We stare into each others' eyes for a few moments and then I start to move. This is amazing. This is better than amazing. This is so much better than in my dreams and so much better than the way I imagined it. I would have never guessed that he felt the same way about me.

I get up and pull him up with me. Our hands stay together as we walk over to our tent and get inside. We lie down in each other's arms and it just feels so perfect. I can't see Bakugo all that well, but I move my lips right next to his ear and whisper, "I thought you were straight. You said you didn't want to see guys look hot when that 3rd year hit you with her quirk."

He giggles and hearing that brings a smile to my face. He moves around so his lips are centimeters from mine and I can feel him move as he talks, "No you idiot. I said that I didn't want to see anyone look hot. I guess you just thought that meant guys, but honest to god I didn't want to see anyone look like the 'hottest person in the world.' All of you guys are idiots, why would I want to look at them that way?"

Hearing those words sort of lifts the weights off of my shoulders that I didn't know were there. Maybe he didn't say that. Maybe I just thought he said that. But it doesn't matter.

We lie there, centimeters apart from each other for a few minutes before a thought makes me pull away. I feel stupid for thinking it because what me and Bakugo have is so much stronger than that. We have a relationship built on trust and our friendship and our compatibility and everything that a relationship should be built off of. But he said that he has never been attracted to anyone. Does he not like me like that? Does he not find me attractive? I feel shallow for thinking those things, but I can't help it. I should be so happy that he actually loves me back and that we just kissed and that we are going to be together, but the thought of him not liking the way I look taints all of it. He used to call me shitty hair. He said he hasn't ever found someone attractive straight to my face.

"Kirishima." His voice brings me out of my head, "Hey, don't worry. When I say this, I mean this from the bottom of my heart: You are the prettiest thing in the entire world. You are so beautiful and I don't want you to ever doubt that."

"How did you know?" I ask, wondering how he could answer the questions I was asking him in my head.

"Because I could tell. I think you are so amazing and if you weren't the prettiest and most perfect thing in the world, I would have watched the sunset instead of kissing you."

"Thank you Bakugo." I lean forward in the dark and our lips meet and we kiss again. I don't know if I believe him, but I do know that I can trust him and that he wouldn't lie to me. I pull back once again, "Bakugo. I want you to know that I am ready whenever you are."

"That makes me so happy Kiri." Hearing him say my name like that sends shivers down my back, "I don't think I am though and not in a bad way, but I think that it would probably hurt out here on the rock."

I feel my heart slow down, "Katsuki," His name slips off of my tongue and I absolutely love it, "That is probably true, but I still know. Whenever you want to I will be ready. Our bond is already so strong and I already love you so much Katsuki, I want as much of you as possible."

His arms wrap around my body and pull me in so we are on top of each other. Our bodies are pressed against each other. Bakugo is only an inch taller than me so we are basically mirrors of each other in the dark. Well maybe not exact reflections. For whatever reason his waist is really really tiny and his shoulders are broader than mine. And his torso is a little longer while my legs are a little longer. But none of that matters. His body is warm and so comforting and I feel myself start to get a little excited 'down there,' but it immediately goes away when Bakugo opens his mouth.

"Your mom...on Monday while you were still gone..." He pushes me away from him and shuffles around for a minute or two before I see his shadow sit up. "You know she had a talk with me."

My mouth drops. Oh no! What did she do? I am sure this can't be good, "What did she do Katsuki?"

I hear him swallow, "Well, she had 'the talk' with me."

I sit up, "Oh my gosh I am so sorry Bakugo."

"It was really uncomfortable and awkward, but she did it because she cares and I guess that's okay. And she went and bought me condoms."

"No. Oh my. Why would she do that?"

"She said that it was better to be over prepared than under prepared."

"Ugh. Katsuki." I literally can't believe that. That is so awkward and now we are dating too. Ugh. That is so bad and weird, why would my mom do that! "I am so sorry man."

Katsuki grabs my hands, "Don't be. I think I needed it to be honest. And besides, it showed me how much she cares about me. Now c'mon let's go to bed. Tomorrow should be a fun day."

He leans forward and I meet him halfway, our mouths connecting for the third time and we kiss for a few minutes. Bakugo lies down and I lie down on top of his arm and shoulder. He moves his left hand under my shirt and starts to lightly tickle my stomach. I put my left hand under his torso and interlock both of our right hands. This is exactly what I have wanted for so long.

"Night Kiri." Katsuki says as he kisses the side of my head.

I squeeze his right hand tight, "Night Katsuki."

I fall asleep fairly quickly, the last thing I remember is the feeling of Bakugo's fingers grazing my torso.
