C R I M I N A L | K. Bakugo x Reader

Chapter 16

My pencil brushes against the page creating a satisfying noise as i sketch Present Mic who's currently teaching my English lesson at the front of the classroom. I snort as I draw him holding Aizawa's hand.
I just KNOW they have something going on.
I hear rustling behind me as hedgehog peers over my shoulder, finding out what i'm laughing at.

"L/N IS DRAWING SOMETHING" Bakugo shouts to which i just roll my eyes.
He's been trying to get me in trouble everyday since last week when he lost. He's probably just trying to get back at me in as many petty ways as possible.

Mic comes towards my desk, holding his hand out for my notebook and i sigh, lifting the drawing up so everyone in the class could see it as i sit sideways on the chair and lean back against the wall, not a care in the world.
Present Mic takes it from me to get a better look and there's small, quiet laughs coming from everyone in the room.
"This is not appropriate, L/N" he frowns and tears out the page, scrunching it up and throwing it in the bin.

"Awh man, i worked so hard on that drawing" i sigh over dramatically as he hands me back my notebook. My classmates snicker at my comment and i smile.
"Mhm" he goes back to the front and begins to teach again so i shoot my gaze over to Bakugo who's writing his notes.

"Who's a good boy, doing their notes?" I praise him sarcastically.
"Don't fucking talk to me. And don't call me that."
"Why? Does it turn you on?" I let out a 'pfft'.
"No it's just fucking weird." he scoffs and continues writing everything down.
"you're good at academics" i annoy him.
"And you're not. Do your fucking work and leave me alone" he grumbles.
"That's not very nice, Bakugo"

"Oh my FUCKING GOD" he breaks and slams his hands down on the desk, his pen shattering as he does so "SHUT THE FUCK UP"
His flaming red eyes pierce through my own calm e/c ones.
I put my hands up in defence and shrug my shoulder at him "you're over reacting, dude"

"Bakugo and L/N i'd like to see you after class" Present Mic sighs in frustration.

"Look what you've done now" i blink at him like he's an idiot.
"Your fault, not mine. Also give me a pen."
"I don't have to give you anything" i laugh and twist around in my chair and tuck myself into my desk.
"Let me borrow one" he hisses "...please"

My eyes widen and i gasp, going to look him up and down "could you repeat that?"
He stays silent, his eyebrows furrowed.
"Eh, no pen for you"
"wait, please can i have one?" his voice strains as he forces himself to say it. And that's when the largest grin spreads across my face "of course, Bakugo. You sure do care about your education!"
"shut up."

[After Class]

We remain at our seats as everyone else leaves the classroom.
Presentation Michael pulls out a chair and sits in front of us.

"I can't help but notice a bad tension between you two and it's interrupting class time, too." he sighs before continuing "when you're both heroes in the future and you get paired up for something, i dread to think what will happen"

He's right i guess. Hold up- I'm not even becoming a hero what the fuck.

I nod along.
"So, as you're aware there's going to be a group project next term where you'll choose your partner. However, us teachers who teach your class have collectively decided to place you two together so you can work on this... dispute"
"NO WAY AM I FUCKING GOING WITH HER"
"what he said" i mumble while tapping my pen on the table, just wanting to go home.
"Well, it's happening and you two better fix this if you want to become heroes" he stands up and places the chair back where it was "dismissed"

I grit my teeth and stand up, throwing my bag over my shoulder and not even bothering to tuck my chair in before i leave.

I'm going to fucking set myself on fire. I have to spend time with Boom Boom Boy and do a class project? I mean, i guess he can do all the work, that's what he's good at anyway. He'll probably end up doing it by himself and just say we did it together or something. Besides, he would take control even if I tried to take part.

Whatever. Cant be that bad can it?
I cant forget my main objective either. I can probably use this to my advantage to gain his trust. That way i can bring him to the league of villains and Shiggy will finally leave me alone about it. I know i'm taking a really long time, i wasn't planning on it being over a month. Even so, with this new development the finish line is becoming more in sight. I can definitely use this.

I'll think of it as a positive.
