The Beauty Within a Beast: the Story of Kirishima and Bakugou

•Pt 6• Even Love Has its Thorns •

Bakugou breath hitched as he slowly turned to look at kirishima. His face filled with dread as he just looked at the boy. "...k-kirishima...its not...this...its...its not..." he muttured as he started to tear up himself. No, he ruined it! He ruined the moment, just like the monster he is! God! Why...he cant keep anything. No wonder he always felt so...worthless. He even made kirishima of all people cry! "Please.....dont c-cry...." he stuttered as he let the tears flow down his own cheeks.

Kirishima got off his knees and slung himself onto Bakugou, knocking both of them down. "w-WHY" Kiri began to raise his voice, he didn't mean to but he was just so confused at the moment and also angry at who ever made his pumpkin feel the need for do this, to harm himself.

Bakugou whimpered as he hit the floor harshly. He looked at kirishima shocked before he just started sobbing. He brought his hands up to cover his shakey sobs. "I-im...im s-sorry...i-i know this is s-shameful..." he said quitely as he backed away from kirishima, putting his head down in shame as he continued to sob. He was so weak, so shameful, so disgusted. His scars...kirishima probably hated him now. Who could love someone who couldn't love themselves?

"Bakugou... please... I'm not mad and I'm not ashamed of you... just.. please, tell me why,... who,... for how long?.." Kiri sobbed while holding on to Bakugou. He has never seen his boyfriend in this much pain. The scars terrified him, but not as much as the thought of what Bakugou must be thinking at this moment. "why didn't you tell me baby..." kirishima said after asking Bakugou permission to look over the scars.

"...since...a bit before i started...UA....my mom...she started to get drunk...older boys at my school started to make fun of me for my looks....it...it...got worse after the kidnapping...villain, monster, beast. Thats all i heard, even from my mom. I was weak to everyone, i was just a monster or another pretty boy. Or even another bitch. Someone no one cares about. Why would anyone care? Why...." he was sobbing, completely breaking down as his shoulders moved up and down with his shaky breath. His eyes red and puffy. His mind running wild, everything cominh back to him. All the comments on his feminine body, the names, the pressure, the sudden hostility from his mother. How he bullied deku, everything, it all was weighing him down. "I...didn't tell you...because, this is my deal. You shouldn't have to carry my mess." He mumbled once he calmed down enough.

"baby..." kirishima trailed off, still trying to take in the information, "so this why you called yourself a monster..." He hugged Bakugou tighter, basically rocking him in his arms. "you are not a monster, pumpkin. you are not even close to one. your mom was a bitch for that and she is going to fcking pay" Kiri started to grow at the thought of his boyfriend's mom doing this to him. "Baby, when is the last time you did this" he asked, going back to a softer tone.

"......two days ago...." he mumbled as he kept looking away. He snuggled into kirishimas chest. He wanted to hide away the entire world right now. He cried softly into his chest. At least kirishima loved him, maybe...maybe thats all he needed. All the needed was kirishima, as long as he loves him he would be happy.

"... a day before you became mine... Bakugou, please don't do it again. Please talk to me. I'm here now. I will help you." He started to cry again. "Please don't call yourself a monster and please don't keep stuff from me. We are one now pumpkin. Just please..." Kirishima looked Bakugou in the eyes, begging him to not do it again, begging him to ask for help. Once again, the word
"PROTECT.PROTECT.PROTECT," screamed through Kirishima's mind.

"I'll try, I dont want because i know I might let you down...but I'll come to you. I'll...start working on believing you...I have been thinking that for a while...so...but...I'll change, for you, love." He smiled a little. He gave kirishima a loving look as he leaned onto him even more.

"here baby" kirishima said, picking Bakugou up and helping him into the shower. He turned the water on and began to wash over bakugou's body, trying to calm him down. Trying to show him that he doesn't love him any less. They stayed in there for a while, just washing each other off the sweetest why that they could. Washing away all the pain, the hurt, the sorrow. Leaving only love for each other. Leaving hope for their future. Together.
