I saw that some people started to read my story which I am super hyped about! Hope that you wonderful peeps enjoy!

Kirishima's POV

I knew something was going on with Bakugou. There just had to be. Not even that he was acting nicer, but the way he just seemed to be hiding something.

So, the night he went up to his dorm earlier than normal for him, I waited and followed him. 

I was surprised when he came out with 3 bags and was slipping something under the door a little. There had to be more though and I had to figure it out. 

After all, someone I really admired was hiding something that seemed extremely important. 

Once he walked away I quickly and quietly made my way to the thing he slipped under the door. It was a piece of paper. I pick it up and unfold it to read, "I guess this is goodbye..." I didn't have to read the rest to know he was leaving. I also knew that I couldn't let him leave, at least not alone. 

So I kept following him. He walked down to Dekubro's door and slipped another paper under it. I didn't read this one. I mean it was for Deku and not me. Although I kind of was sad that there wasn't a letter to me. 

I shook off the thought and continued to trail him. That sounded really creepy. I continued to follow him. He made it down the stairs and passed the common room. Good thing Denkibro and Shinsou weren't down here still. They try to hide it but they kinda suck at it, a lot. It was very awkward sometimes when trying to make midnight snack runs. 

I shook the weird thought away again and watched as Bakugou slowly opened the door. I hid quickly behind the wall as he looked back, holding my breath, hoping he didn't see me yet. 

Once the door closed I raced to it. He wasn't far so I ran up to him and slightly called his name. 

He turned quickly with widen eyes and a very surprised expression. It almost looked like he was going to have a panic attack. 

"What are you doing here?" He asked in a very panicked manner. I just give a nervous chuckle hoping he wouldn't blow me up. 

"Um, this is gonna sound a little creepy but I kinda followed you. I noticed you've been acting different. Not just that you are being nicer, which isn't a bad thing at all, but that you were kind of acting like you were hiding something. So, I waited to see if you were going to do anything. I read a little of the note you left under your door and I wanted to know where you were going and if you were going to be back. And damn, I rambled on a lot. I was just worried is all. Sorry..." I chuckle very nervously again at the end realizing that I had talked a lot. I stared at the ground and glanced up at him. 

"U-um. No one was supposed to find that letter till the morning. Listen Kiri, I'll tell you, but you have to keep this a secret." He got serious but I could also tell he was just as, if not more nervous than I was. 

I nod and follow him through the trees till we get close to the surrounding walls of UA. I watch patiently as he places his bags down on the ground. He follows with them so I step closer and sit too. 

He lets out a long sigh and then lays on the grass. 

"I honestly don't know where to start. But, it should probably be from the beginning. When I was 4 I got my quirk, explosion. I hated it and still do. I never wanted to destroy or blow up a thing in my life. Everyone around me said I would make a great hero but I never wanted to be a hero. I just wanted to be a simple farmer or gardener or something. But it was like everyone was saying it was destiny. That I had to be a hero. I made a fake personality. I was mean and ruthless and I hated it so so much. I pushed away my own best friend, Izuku, but for some reason I thought it was pointless to try and change my "destiny" and just went with the fact I was going to be a hero. I've finally decided that I would give up this fake life. I'm running away. I'm leaving UA forever and making the life I actually want for myself." Near the end he got serious. I was in shock. I never new that he hated his quirk or that he was just using this fake personality. 

He glances at me and I give him a kind smile. "Don't worry bro. I don't care who you are or what you want to do, as long as you're happy. And, if I'm being honest with you I didn't really want to be a hero either. Sure, I thought they were cool but I knew it wasn't for me. I was doing it to help my parents make some extra money, kinda like Uraraka, but they finally got stable jobs and better pay, so me being a hero really doesn't matter to me anymore." He looks very shocked. I continue on before he can speak again. "Is it ok if I go with you?" I look at him with a hopeful expression. Almost begging for me to join him. 

"Uh sure but you have to be quick with packing. I want to leave tonight, before the sun starts to rise." I get excited. He talks again. "Just know, once we leave a lot of me is going to change. Not just my personality but how I act and dress." I just chuckle and tackle him in a hug. He laughs back and hugs me too, making me blush.

"That's fine bro. Lets hurry though." I stand and then help him up. He leaves his bags there so that he can help me pack. 

It did take a little time deciding what exactly to bring but with Bakubros help we packed clothes and a couple things I couldn't part without. I scribble down a quick note explaining the things I wanted to for a little while now. 

Finally back at the wall. Bakugou throws our bags into the tree and then helps me climb up. We share lots of laughs as we stumble around branches and tumble a little landing on the other side of the wall. 

It was so refreshing to see Bakugou in a new light.

We pick up our stuff and start walking. 

"So, where exactly are we going anyway." He chuckles

"No idea. Somewhere away from here, somewhere in the country." He looks at me with a simple smile. I smile back and we both blush. 

We never looked back though. 

So another chapter done! I honestly wasn't really planning on how to get the ship to be kiribaku but I kinda like that I made it so they run away together. Sounds romantic >///<. Welp, I hope you wonderful peeps have a great day/afternoon/night wherever you are! Bye!!
