I starred at the blank faced man who I've know for what seems to be my whole life. After a few seconds that seemed like hours to me I finally chocked out a sentence "T-transferred?!?! Where? Why?"
I start to ramble,"I understand I was reckless last mission but it wasn't my fault!" I defend myself throwing my partner under the bus.I finally calm down slightly, my heart beat interrupting the silence.
He looks at me not once breaking eye contact we stare at each other for what seems like years.I can't help but look away. His deafening gaze still on me as he speaks.
"Midoriya.." he says as I continue to fidget with the edge of his desk. My outburst probably confirmed his decision to fire me. "You didn't allow me to finish." he says continuing on "The FBI called."I look up at him trying to keep my hopes down before they get crushed again.
"And?" I say,the memories of my application to the BAU coming back to me.His gaze slightly softens enough to comfort me "They said they want you." my heart racing and the lump in my throat grows an inch as I hold back tears of joy.
"They said they want you in the BAU.."he says finally, slightly smiling while tears spill down my checks landing on the desk. "You start tomorrow their transferring you to a American building in LA".
No no NO! This can't be right! Happiness slowly turns to sadness, I guess it reflected on my face because his smile turned into a frown as he spoke once again "Everything alright?""Just nervous" I say,clearly lying through my teeth,as a scratch the back of my neck and lean forward a bit.
"Okay I'm sure you will feel better later it's a great opportunity." he says obviously not believing my lie. A moment of silence engulfs us until he finally breaks the the awkward tension."I'd assume you have a lot of packing to do and things to talk about with you're family, so please have the day off" and with that I sprint out of the room as fast as I can in a office setting.I don't have much on my desk so I grab a photo of my mom and I,and try to fill a box with the rest of my small belongings. I had that box under my desk for this time specifically,then head straight for the door hoping he will explain to the rest of my coworkers where I'm going. The second I get into my car I break down,
for 2 reasons.
One of them being that LA is very far from where my mom is. What will she do without me? Of course I'll text and call her at every chance I get but what if something happens to her?
I can't just leave her here. I'm the only one she's got after dad left, but it's my dream job so I have to go! And knowing her she'll agree with me and want me to go. And who am I to argue with my mom? But then the second reason pops into my head once again."Kachan..."
I sigh out in frustration banging my head on the steering wheel making the horn honk earning a couple concerned glances from walking near by civilians. Kachan also know as Katsuki Bakugo my old friend-,or so I thought. We were friends until I skipped my first grade in high school then suddenly we were rivals.
I'm not sure what changed him but he definitely doesn't like me...And if I'm being honest I don't like him either,but that's not the point. He made it into the LA's BAU bomb squad,and knowing him,his probably the best,meaning we're going to have to work together..When we started working with police stations he didn't wanna work in same office as me,so he went somewhere else.
How do I know he got into LA's BAU?well he sent me a photo through the mail.In the photo it had a his name on a BAU badge and under his name it said Bomb squad LA in bold.I was happy for him until I read the note that was sent with it,'Hey nerd bet you didn't get in yet! Or will ever!' I remember what it says because of my photographic memory.It times likes these I wish I didn't..
