The Silence of Suffering-BakuTodo

Don't Piss Off the Lion (Ch 4)

I was a little uncomfortable the rest of the time we were in the kitchen. After a while Bakugou asked if I wanted to go upstairs, back to our rooms. I nodded and we said goodbye to the rest. Bakugou opened his door and said bye, as he was about to walk in I pitched his shirt. He turned around and looked at me confused. I realised what I did and let go as I lifted my hands up blushing a little. He chuckled as he turned around and leaned on his door frame with his hands crossed.
    "Did you want me to stay with you?" He said with a smirk. I felt my face heat up more and jokingly punched him in the stomach. He acted like it hurt as he held his stomach and lightly chuckled.
    "Guess not," He said as I sped walk over to my room and slammed the door behind me. I sat on my bed, covering my face of embarrassment. After I calmed down I was on my bed reading a book when I heard a knock at the door. I got up and opened the door to be met with Momo.
    'Did you need something?' I signed as I opened the door all the way to let her in.
    "I want to know what happened to your shoulder," she said with a serious tone. I flinched at the voice and startly to slightly tremble.
    'Just my dad again, nothing new' I signed as I sat on my bed. Then she said something I wish I would never hear out of her mouth.
    "You can't keep letting him do this to you Shoto," She said with annoyance in her voice. I sat there, shocked that she actually just said that.
    "It's been going on for too long and I think it would be easy to get him to stop," she said as she put an arm over my shoulder. Then I snapped. I smacked her arm off of me and stood up with rage in my eyes. Momo realised she screwed up when her eyes met mine.
    'You think it's that easy? HE'S MY DAD. WHO BY THE WAY HAPPENS TO HAVE MORE STRENGTH THAN I DO! You really think I LET him do this to me? LIKE I HAVE A FUCKING CHOICE! I tense up every time I'm around him! How do you expect me to easily get him to stop!' I sign angrily at her as I start to cry.
    "Ok, I'm sorry! Pretend I didn't say anything ok?" She said as she tries to wrap her arms around me. I push her away, making her fall to the ground.
    'Don't touch me' I sign.
    "Shoto..." she said as she got up and took a step towards me.
    'Get out' I sign with my hands trembling.
    "W-what? Wait hold on-" Momo tried to say.
    'I SAID GET OUT!' I sign aggressively at her and push her out of my room. I slam the door shut and lock it. I slide down the door and start crying even harder. I hug my knees to my chest and bury my face in my knees. She knows I can't do shit to get him to stop so why did she word it like that? I was silently sobbing when I looked at my bandaged arm. Cutting sounds nice right now. I get up and walk to my bathroom and open a drawer. I take my trembling hand and lift up the blade then my mind reminds me of what I promised Natsuo. I drop the blade and run out the bathroom and close the door to prevent me from going back in. I was breathing heavily and tears started to rush down my face again. I opened my door slowly in case anyone was in the hall and when I saw the coast was clear I bolted to Bakugou's room and knocked on the door. I looked down at my feet as my tears were coating them with the salty liquid. I glanced up when I heard the door open.
    "Woah what happened?!" Bakugou said as I just started crying harder. He pulled me into his room and hugged me. The next thing I know I was on his lap with my face in his shoulder as he leaned against his door, stroking my hair gently. Once I had calmed down a little I moved my head to his chest to listen to his heartbeat. Natsuo had figured out that it was the only thing that really calmed me down.
    'I'm sorry, I didn't know who else to run to' I signed in front of him.
    "Hey it's ok, I don't mind. Do you want to tell me what happened? I promise I'll listen," Bakugou said as he kept running his hands through my hair. I sat up in front of him on my knees and told him about the whole thing with Momo. I started sobbing as I took a breath to continue.
    'Then when she left I had an urge to self harm but I promised my brother that I would run to my siblings or a friend whenever I felt like doing it so I ran to you' I signed while I was trembling and sobbing since I cried so much already. Bakugou lightly grasped my arms and guided me onto my feet. He led me to his bed and had me lay down next to him. He put my head on his chest and started to stroke my hair again.
    "I'm glad you came to me, just know that you can come to me whenever you need ok?" Bakugou said in a soothing tone. I nod my head tiredly as I drift off and fall asleep.
