Don't Let Go

rematch

Bakugo and Uraraka walked down the hallway until they reached the room for fire type quirks. It had much more room and space for dangerous activity and there was always someone on guard in case something happened. They had changed into their hero costumes once they left the front desk.

"I didn't know you came here often? I feel like I never see you.", she mentioned.

"I usually come at night. There's no one in the way."

"Oh see, I'm always at the beach haha."

"Yeah..", Bakugo said spacing out.

Uraraka gave him a weird look. Then her eyes widened realizing how ignorant that must've sounded. She tried to laugh it off and pray that it might lighten the mood.

"Earth to Bakugo.", she giggled.

He still seemed in his own world while walking forward. He looked rather disgruntled, however.

"Hey, hello.", she said again. "Weren't you just telling me to stay focused?"

Still nothing. She was a little more than concerned now.

Is he angry at me for what I said? Ohh, I'd feel like the biggest jerk.

"Bakugo?", she said reaching for his hand.

The soft touch startled him but she hadn't let go.

"Are you okay?", she said giving a worried look.

He blinked and shook his head with a straight face.

"Sorry. I'm fine."

"Are you sure? If you need more rest, you can"-

"I said I'm fine.", he interrupted. "Promise."

"Okay..", she said.

She gave him a smile and punched his arm softly.

"Fix your face then. If you're fine, don't worry me with your confusing facial expressions."

"You don't need to worry about me.", he said opening the door for her.

"I'll never not worry about you.", she said with determined eyes.

She entered the room and dwelled on what she said and held her face. She turned around slowly to see Bakugo...a little red?

How embarrassing! I can't believe I said that out loud! Does he look like that because I said that? It's definitely cold in here, so its not like he's hot.

"Let's start, pink cheeks.", he said walking past her. "It'll be dark before you know it.

"Right!", she said nodding her head.

They began to brawl in a part of the arena that didn't have too much going on. Bakugo immediately shot forward with his explosions and Uraraka tapped her fingers. She narrowed her eyes and posed her stance. The second he was three feet away, she did a back bend that turned into a flip, knocking him in the chest. He jumped over her with a grunt and created an explosion in the air to knock her off balance. He tripped her up so she fell on her side but immediately used her leg to grab onto his ankle, which caused him to use his explosions on his feet. She immediately let go knowing it was going to burn her.

"Are you sure you're okay to fight?!", she yelled.

"Worry about yourself Round face! Or you're gonna lose!", he yelled.

She smirked and shook her head. She tapped her shoes and jumped on three different rocks, letting her leap in the air faster. Bakugo didn't expect that and was surprised to be tackled midair. They didn't fall however because of her quirk and she had pinned his arm behind his back on the floating rock's surface.
