Day 8

"Bakugou, we forgot- " Kirishima and Todoroki were stunned , standing like statues at the door seeing Ashley and Bakugou kissing

" *Sob* *sob* " Todoroki started out with brief sobbings before he bursted into tears and ran away with his really really loud crying

*The next day*

"Katsuki...thank you for your hospitality," Ashley told Bakugou as she closed her luggage. "Welcome," Bakugou replied politely earning a sad look from Ashley.

She had expected Bakugou to offer her to stay a few more days like he would have back in their younger days. Seeing the guy who she loved all these years, the man she dreamt of marrying, being all unaffected whether by her absence or presence made her heart shatter

Ashley lips wobbled and her eyes stung, she knew, she could feel it, how Bakugou is slowly moving away from her into someone else's embrace.

"Katsuki Bakugou...if you really love him, go for him. Don't be a fool like me, waiting will only let him escape. All the best, sayonara~" Ashley smiled as she bid Bakugou goodbye and walked out of the door pulling her luggage along

Bakugou was so busy thinking about the words Ashley said, by the time he snapped back to reality, the door was already shut and Ashley also finally left. Bakugou sat on his bed, with the whole room to himself

What he didn't notice was they way tears fell from Ashley's face, how she tried to hold back her sobs and the amount of courage she gathered to be able to give Bakugou and the person he like her blessings

. . .

"Todoroki-kun...do you want some waffles?" Momo offered but Todoroki only shook his head sadly

After running out from Bakugou's room last night, he went to find Momo and asked to stay with her for a few days. Momo welcomed him with open arms helplessly. As much she adored Todoroki, she also knows that the person Todoroki wants most is Bakugou, even before he got turned into a child

"What happned? I might be able to help you know..." Momo sat on the bed beside Todoroki and gently caress his hair 

"I...saw baba....k-kwishing other girl...I dwon't know why...hwere hwurts..." Todoroki pointed to the left side of his chest where his heart was as he began sobbing again. Momo instantly understood everything 

"Were you afraid Bakugou would be stolen by this girl? I don't know if you are able to understand whatever I'm gonna say, but if it is meant to be, it will be. And if it isn't, no matter how hard you try to hold onto it, it will never stay..." Momo advised before she left to get ready for school

After dropping Todoroki at All Might's office, Momo went to class as usual. Just as she was gonna head over to her seat, she bumped into none other than Bakugou

"Ah- gomen gomen!" She smiled apologetically, but to her surprise Bakugou just stared at her with an unexplained expression. "Bakugou?" Momo snapped her fingers in front of Bakugou's eyes before he finally went back to reality and walked past her like nothing happened

"Ara~ I thought he was gonna yell at you," Mina fake gasped earning an eye roll from Momo. "Ne...is it just me or does Kacchan seemed quieter than usual?" Midoriya asked Iida who only shrugged his shoulder 

Classes soon ended and everyone headed back to their dormitory getting ready for dinner. Momo stood in front of the different food laid out nicely on the table not knowing what to choose for Todoroki

"Here, he likes cold soba and anything noodle related. Before he goes to bed every night, make sure to get him a class of warm strawberry milk so he can fall asleep better, every morning when he wakes up as well, or else he would become real grumpy and refuse to eat breakfast," Bakugou instructed, handing a plate of fried noodles already cut into smaller pieces to Momo

Previously when Todoroki and him crossed path, Bakugou pretended he didn't see Todoroki leaving a teary Todoroki watching his back as he walked ahead. Yet here he is instructing other people to take note of Todoroki's eating habits and meal  preferance

"Bakugou!" Before Momo could say anything to Bakugou, he had already left. Momo could only helplessly carry the plate Bakugou prepared for Todoroki and head back to her seat

"Here, I heard you like noodles right?" Momo placed the plate in front of Todoroki, and much to her relief, Todoroki started eating more than he did this morning 

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to finish up their homework or do night training. Just before bed, Momo followed Bakugou's instruction and warmed a glass of strawberry milk for Todoroki 

"Thwank you...Baba told you all thwese didn't he..." Todoroki stared at the glass of warmed strawberry milk in his hand. How he wished Bakugou would approach him and do all these for him again instead of just ditching his duties to Momo

"He still cares for you, a lot. Trust me Todoroki-kun, " Momo comforted as she gently pat his back while he cried in her arms yet again. It pained Momo's heart to see Todoroki looking so depressed but she knew there was nothing she could do. Bakugou needs to decide what he wants and learn to express himself properly in order to keep the people he want by his side
