the lie

3rd person:

➵ THE DAY had started off slow for Bakugo and fortunately for him, this was his last class of the evening.

Bakugo looked out the window completely dismissing the words spewing out of his classmates mouths. Lost in his own thoughts.

"You thinking about your girlfriend?" Mineta teased, noticing Bakugo's dissociation.

"Stop teasing Mr.Hothead over here with dumb questions, you know there's no way Bakugo could even get a girlfriend." Kirishima laughed, the class joining in.

Recently the class would make comments here and there about Bakugo's love life and how he was unable of even acquiring one. At first he'd ignore it, and just stayed silent, but then it started to irritate him.

He'd even questioned it himself. He knew he could get a girlfriend but maintaining one was where he was unsure of himself.

Bakugo slammed his hands onto his desk and huffed out, "I DO HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!"

He had finally had enough of his classmates' teasing.

Everyone's eyes widened, even Todoroki's ears perked up and he usually doesn't participate in the classes shenanigans.

Mineta's shocked expression soon changed to a mischievous one, "Oh yeah? Prove it."

Bakugo felt good those few seconds everyone was in disbelief but then came to the realization he had no clue how he'd back up his lie.

Now that Mineta had spoken, everyone else had come to the conclusion he was lying.

"FINE!" Bakugo sits back down in his sit with his arms crossed, looking as furious as ever.

"How the fuck am I gonna prove to them my non-existing girlfriend exists?" He thought while focusing his attention back to where it had been before. Looking outside of the window.

Bakugo walked over to the dorm he shared with Marcus Cortez also known as his best friend.

They had only met each other this school year but they shared a lot with each other and built a strong sense of trust.

Marcus was already laying on his bed texting his girlfriend, Leilani Baker.

"Hey bro," Bakugo approached Marcus to dap him up.

They dap each other up, but Bakugo's stressed expression didn't brush past Marcus, "What's up?"

"Nothing much?"

"No I mean why do you look so stressed?"

"Oh nothing, just class and stuff," Bakugo answers almost stunned Marcus noticed.

"Yeah if you're ever having trouble with work you ask my twin, Melinda for answers. So now I know you're lying." Marcus sat up straight and put his phone on the bed, paying full attention to Bakugo.

Bakugo was now caught red handed, he was contemplating whether or not he should come up with another lie or just tell him the truth.

"I know you're tryna find an excuse bro just quit it"

Bakugo exhaled. "There's no way to get around him huh?" he thought to himself.

"Alright so you know how everyone's been saying I can't get a girlfriend?" Marcus nods implying he's following.

"Well I just got real frustrated and ended up saying I already have a girlfriend," Bakugo says with shame.

Marcus scratched his head, thinking.

A few seconds later when Bakugo thinks the conversation is over, he goes on his phone.

"I think I have an idea." Bakugo's head shot up, interested in what Marcus would say next.

"I have a friend that might be up for the role." Bakugo's eyes widened. It hadn't crossed his mind he'd have to have an actually person pretend to be his girlfriend if he wanted anyone to believe him.

"But imma have to talk to her first, and fair warning she'll probably want money." This uninterested Bakugo, he didn't want to be paying anyone, he was sure Marcus had other friends who could do the job for free.

"Let me facetime her right now," Marcus grabbed his phone and searched for her name before pressing FaceTime.The screen reads 'connecting...'

"Hey Y/n," Marcus said into the phone. Bakugo tried to sneak a peak of his potential fake girlfriend, unfortunately all he could see is a ceiling.

"I need a favor," Marcus starts.

"Look Marcus, don't be asking me for no money, I'm broke." Y/n speaks already irritated. Bakugo on the other hand found a liking to her voice, it was soothing and feminine. The type that could put him to sleep.

"Why the attitude already?" Marcus laughed.

"Where are you even going, you usually show me your face. I could be talking to a stranger for all I know." Marcus points out, noticing Bakugo wanted to get a look of Y/n.

"I'm going to my dorm right now idiot, you want to see my chin instead?" The attitude, something else Bakugo liked.

"Yeah whatever, but listen I need a favor from you."

"What do you want?"

"I need you to pretend to be someone's girlfriend."
