Don't Let Go

wanna bet?

10 MINUTE TIME SKIP. URARAKA CHANGED HER CLOTHES. THEY'RE BOTH IN WINTER CLOTHING.

"I'm glad we're walking there instead of driving your car. I love walking to the arena."

"I don't understand you. Why would you wanna walk in the cold when I could drive."

"The walk is calming just-just hold up. Keep walking straight and look up."

They both walked a couple of feet in a calming silence and then stopped in a frosty pile of snow. The wind blew softly and a wind chime nearby started tinking.

"Don't you just feel at peace?"

Bakugo sighed and looked around.

"You have a motorcycle, too. Makes no d*mn sense."

Uraraka bust out laughing and they kept walking. At this point, they were only a couple minutes away from the arena.

"I didn't know you were so funny.", she giggled.

"Hey, I'm just being honest.", he shot back. "Your bike is sick though. Kirishima showed me. When did you get it?"

"Thank you!", she beamed. "My grandparents got it for me on my birthday-augh!"

Two random men walking past them were snickering and eyeing Uraraka. One of them had apparently grazed her backside which caused her to whip around. Her face turned red and she narrowed her eyes at them.

She didn't even know what to say because she didn't want to sound foolish, so she just stood there. She was mad and embarrassed but the words just wouldn't come out. Suddenly Bakugo stood in front of her looked pissed.

"Hey, pretty boy, you should tell your girl to wear longer shirts!", he cackled elbowing his friend. "Not that I'm complaining."

His hands crackled and his eyes were fixated. Uraraka noticed this immediately and tapped his shoulder.

"Bakugo you don't have to say anything to them. It's fine.", she said quietly.

"No. It's NOT."

She took a step back not knowing what to say. She looked at him with worried eyes while deep down admiring how he defended the situation. Bakugo began to walk toward the boys and suddenly one of them went pale.

"Dude, wait. I think it's that guy from the news.", he whispered. "The one who took down Diversion."

"Nah it can't be, that guy has to still be in the hosp"-

Suddenly Bakugo had almost teleported right in front of the guy and held him up by his shirt.

"Wanna bet?", he barked.

The one hand held up the guy while his other began to fire up. His other friend had begun to run leaving him in Bakugo's clutches.

"W-where are you going?!", the boy squeaked trying to break through Bakugo's grip.

The other boy kept running and didn't even bother to look back.

"At least your friend has half a brain.", he said not breaking eye contact.

"L-look man, I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that. It was j-just a joke!", he cried.

"I don't see anyone laughing.", he grunted letting him fall on the ground.

"Look at you. You're not even bold enough to approach me, never-mind a woman. No wonder you pulled a cowards' move. You're no better than a child and it makes me sick. Don't you ever come near this girl again, do you understand me?", he growled.
