Solitary (Katsuki Bakugo x Reader)

Chapter Nine - Deal?

(M/n) knocked on your bedroom door.

"(Y/n), you've been up all night. It's time to go to bed."

There was no response. Slightly annoyed, your mother opened the door to see you at your desk scribbling answers on your homework. It was a question activity about how you saw your classmates fight and how you could do better, you had to get answers from Tenya since you were in Recovery Girl's office the rest of the fight. All Might was such a simple teacher, it was almost surprising. So simple you forgot about it until 10:30pm. You wrote the last sentence then folded the page into your bag, then sat at the side of your room. (M/n) sighed.

"If you don't get proper sleep then how will you get the energy for school tomorrow?"

"School doesn't start until 8:30am, mom. If I sleep now I'll still get nine hours of sleep."

(M/n) frowned. "You plan to wake up at 7:30? That's late to take a shower."

"I'm taking showers before I go bed. If I take a shower every single day then it'll dry out my skin, you know it's not healthy to clean yourself everyday right?"

You rummaged around your room, (M/n) was taken a back at your sudden change in attitude. "I guess that's true. Well, if you're sure then just make sure you don't overwork yourself."

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm almost sixteen, I can take care of myself."

You practically booted your own mother out the room after picking up your things off the floor and preparing your uniform for tomorrow.

Getting into bed, you stretched and pulled your covers over your shoulders. There was something on your mind, but you couldn't pin what. But you figured if you didn't know why then it wasn't as important as you thought.

"Excuse me! Can you tell us about how it feels to work with All Might as your teacher!"

The press was crowding the school once the rumors of All Might working as a teacher at U.A. were deemed true. News reporters, magazine writers, and cameramen were harassing the students every which way.

"Uh.. no?" You tried walking away. One of the cameras went up in your face, and you grabbed it and hot water made its way inside it's mechanics. You killed the damn camera.

The teachers, bless Mr. Yamada's soul, made an an escape for the students to follow. As the day went on, the teachers were mainly outside instead of actually teaching.

"(Y/n), you left early yesterday! How come?"

Ochako poked your shoulder. Soon enough, you knew everyone's names and quirks.

"I saw her leaving with Bakugo yesterday! You two got something secret going on or what?", Mina teased.

The boys on the other side of the class let out a few 'Oooooo's that made you cup your face in exhaustion. "Fuck no. I just wanted to leave early, and Katsuki just so happened to be leaving as well."

Though he acted like he wasn't listening, Katsuki was silently appreciating you didn't give out any information of him crying the other day. Since then, he's been acting different. Instead of morning arguments he was more of this silent aggression. He only yelled if someone in particular was getting on his nerves, and when he was quiet he kept to himself.

You were honestly disappointed when he didn't respond to your greeting this morning. But there was another thing that was bugging you to your very core. Since you and Eijiro couldn't seem to stop talking to each other in class, Aizawa changed yours and Izuku's seating chart. Now you were sitting behind this asshole with big spiky hair and could barely see the board. Everytime you asked Katsuki didn't even budge.
