Bakugou's POVI wake up a loud tapping sound. Sounds like tapping on glass. I open my eyes and scan the room totally forgetting the tank I built yesterday. I spot the tank with a blanket still on the front for privacy. That's when I decided to actually get up and see what fish bitch wanted.
As I approached the tank I hear talking.
"I can't believe he's taking soo long to wake up. The sun came up hours ago! Doesn't he have to go to the school place he was talking about? I wonder how many fish are there! It is a school so there has to be fish. Right star?.... yeah you're right. It's probably another weird human thing and not something I'm used to." She sounded as if she was having a conversation with herself. Though her conversation was cut short because I ripped the blanket off of the tank to be met with a confusingly cute sight. (Y/n) was holding the rubber duck I gave her in her palms and holding it up to her face so she can talk to it face to face.
"Maybe I should tap on the glass again... yes star I know what glass is I'm not stupid~ we had a bunch of the stuff in the ocean. And if you look in some of them they had scrolls and letters. *whisper* some where even love letters- oh hi bakugou I didn't know you were up!" She finally noticed me. Should I be worried? I don't think it's normal to have a conversation with inanimate objects.
"Yeah I'm up. No thanks to you and your constant tapping." I growled. "So who the fuck is 'star'?" I'm curious as to why she named the duck star.
"Oh! Star is the duck you gave me. I named her star after your stars." She said as she did a twirl in her tank. Ugh I should at least educate this mer-bitch a little so she can stop calling my explosions 'stars'. That makes me sound weak. AND I AINT WEAK!!"First. These aren't stars" I start making explosives in my hand. "And what you're in isnt 'a tiny ocean'. It's a tank, so fucking call it that. I don't know how the fuck you did shit in the ocean but up here you sound like a fucking idiot." I aggressively explained. I look at the clock, it says 11:15 am. 'Damn I must have been exhausted yesterday.' And then I remember. THE COLLAR! I go to the desk where I sat the collar after snatching it from that shitty deku and pick it up. I then grab the ladder and climb up. "Swim the fuck up here" I order my pet to do as I say. She then confusedly swam up till her head and shoulders where above the water.
"Come here" I order. She then comes closer. In fact she was soo close I could feel her breath on my face. 'Man she has fucking beautiful eyes. And those lips. They're soo perfect. Almost kissable-' my thoughts where cut off as I catch my self leaning forward while an extremely red blush forms on (y/n)'s cheeks. I feel a blush form on my cheeks and quickly back away from her. Not too much so I don't fall off the ladder. I then place the collar on her neck and quickly get off the ladder. I go to the closet and get some clothes for the day and change in the bathroom. When I walk out I see she's still blushing but she's looking in the treasure chest.
"I'll be back. It's almost noon and you haven't eaten yet. I'll get some fucking food and when I get back I'll finish teaching you a few minor things about the human world." A say as I walk out the door and lock it. 'Fuck! You can't kiss your fucking pet!' I think to myself while face palming. When I make it to the kitchen I run into half & half. When he noticed me he walked up to me and asked."Hey bakugou, what's a kink bug? The others wouldn't explain to me. Are you sick or something?" He said tilting his head slightly and taking out a tiny book labeled "conspiracy theories for later". I push my way past icy hot and walk to the fucking fridge. "I'm not fucking sick so don't ask me that shit ever again!" I say without looking at him to hide a very visible blush.
'They saw the fucking collar!'
(Y/n)'s pov
What was that? Was bakugou about to kiss me? 'Is that something pet owners do? I had a pet once. His name was bubbles. He was a sea horse. I gave him kisses but only on the top of his head, not the lips! It might be another human thing' as I'm thinking, I look in the treasure chest for something fun. I FOUND A HOOP! Sweet!
I put the hoop over my head and around my belly and start belly dancing with it. As I'm dancing I hum a song. It's not a song I know or anything, it's just random melodies.
It felt like hours went by to me but and I didn't notice bakugou had already came back with food for the both of us. I only stopped dancing when I heard a knock on the glass. I hold the hoop and look to where the knock came from. I see Bakugou standing there with a dazed look. Was he just watching me?
I giggle and swim to the edge of the tank to get closer to him. "So, what's for breakfast?" I ask and boop the glass where his nose would be. Just like that he was suddenly out of his trance and shook his head. He looked over to the desk where I assume he put the food.
"For you, you have a pack of dried sea weed and some baby carrots. I don't know if you're kind eat meat or anything so right now I putting you on a vegetarian diet till further notice. For me, I have a simple egg on toast with a few pieces of bacon." As he was talking I swam to the top of the tank and caught a baby carrot he threw in my tank.
"Maybe I should teach you about us mer-folk" I say with and grin on my face.
"Whatever, but after I teach you about a few human customs, the concept of quirks, and how this whole arrangement is going to fucking work." He said rolling his eyes. "Given the fact first terms final exams are coming up, I'll need a way I can train and feed you. How long are you able to be out of water and not dry up like a shriveled old prune?"he ask while he took his desk seat and food and brought it over to the front of my tank and sat down. He took a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth.. man that looks good~ I was ripped away from my thoughts by bakugou tapping the tank with his foot.
"I asked a fucking question!" He yelled.
"Oh sorry, um I think 4 hours at most. But if I have a bottle of water to drink I should be able to last and extra hour. We mer-folk absorb water so that we can survive out of water. Though there is a limit for each one. For me it's 4 hours but for my dad it was 8." He shook his head and thought.
"How do you feel about being locked in this room all day? You have fucking toys but given I'll be at school, I can't feed you lunch and you'll have a late dinner due to me training." He said placing his bacon back in his mouth and throwing two baby carrots in my tank that I caught.
"Well we do eat small fish so you could put a few in my tank. Also fruit and vegetables last for long amounts of time under water so just throw a few in here before you go. We often found those on shipwrecks and ate them for holidays and weddings." I said while stuffing my face with the carrots.
"Easy enough. So now time for your crash course in all things human." He makes the star- I mean explosions in his hand again. I wonder how it works!(Time skip to after Bakugou explained the concept of quirks and how his quirk works cuz I'm lazy)
WOW! I didn't know humans were soo awesome! "That's amazing bakugou! I bet you're like super strong right?" I ask doing a twirl.
"Fuck yeah I am! I'm the best out of the whole fucking school!" He said while puffing out his chest.
"I wish I could see all those amazing quirks! Maybe you could introduce me to your class? That would be fun right?!" I said excitedly. He then lost his grin and it was replaced with a frown.
"Fish can't go on fucking walks." He said matter-of-factly.
"Oh.. hey but wait! They don't know I'm your pet tho!" I said gaining hope again.
"Yeah they FUCKING THINK YOU'RE MY GIRLFRIEND! Besides how would I hide that fucking tail of yours?? It's huge!" He yelled. I think to myself 'wouldn't a type of sleeve work?'
"Hey, wouldn't a sleeve work? And don't you have those chairs with wheels that injured humans use? You could just say that I'm injured and can't walk! That way no one will know!" I said with stars in my eyes. He thought for a second.
"Looks like you're not as dumb as you look. We'll see. Teach said there was a surprise after the tests so maybe around then." He said while getting up and taking the empty plates. "I'll be back later but this concludes our lesson for to day fish bitch." He said waving while walking away.
"See ya when you come back bakugou!"And with that he left and came back later with food. We talked some more about nothing in particular and I watched him do some homework before bed. He put the blanket back on my tank and swam down to my rock before falling asleep.
I wonder when I'll meet the other humans.
