"i like you"

woo

-----

They had been in Kirishima's dorm. They had both finished their homework, but neither wanted Bakugou to leave, so he stayed as they played some dumb game that Bakugou was only halfway paying attention to.

He was paying attention to Kirishima more than anything else. His bright, ruby eyes. Sharp teeth, something that could seem intimidating if it wasn't on somebody so kind and gentle. His soft, crimson hair, which was hanging at his shoulders and not tainted with hair spray and gel, a privilege only those closest to him could see, a sign of vulnerability.

"Alright, your turn! Truth or dare!"

"Dare, I'm not scared."

"Alright! Uhm... Ooh, make my lunch for me tomorrow!" Kirishima said with a teasing smile, laughing at Bakugou's annoyed expression.

"Oh, so you're just doing this to get favors from me, eh?"

"Maybe, but you're not gonna back down, right?"

"You wish. No way in hell am I loosing!" Bakugou said, slamming his fist on the ground where they were sitting.

"Good! Alright, I choose dare!"

"Alright, then pick me instead of Dunce Face for training tomorrow."

"Huh? I would've done that if you just said you wanted to be partners, dude!"

"Whatever, you should've picked me anyway, I'm way stronger than the idiot." Bakugou said, trying not to show his envy.

Kirishima laughed, light and airy. "You couldn't have just asked to work together?" Bakugou blushed a little at that, turning away. "Shut up, dumbass..."

"Man, I've never seen you so jealous before!" Kirishima said as he burst out laughing as Bakugou's face went redder.

"I-Idiot! I'm not jealous! That'd be fucking stupid! And I'm not stupid! Bet you think that, huh?" Bakugou said, explosion going off as Kirishima activated his quirk and laughed harder.

"Boy, you sure are defensive about this, dude." Kirishima said, calming down. "Anyway, 's your turn. Truth or dare?"

"I'm not scared, remember?"

"Alright! Uhm... I dare you to choose truth next round!" Kirishima said, laughing as Bakugou rolled his eyes.

"That was a waste, y'know. Could've gotten me to do your homework or some shit."

"Oh, wait! I take it back!" Kirishima said as Bakugou smirked, letting out a slight laugh.

"Nope, too late. Your turn now."

Kirishima groaned. "Meanie. Uhm, truth?"

"Fuckin' boring. Uhm... what's the last grade you got on a test?"

"I got a 75! Better than last time!"

"Still bad."

"Well, I don't have enough room in my brain." Kirishima said as he childishly stuck his tongue out.

"Whatever. Truth, I guess."

"Ha! Okay, this may be kinda childish and you're gonna say no, but I'm curious, cause I've talked about this stuff with all my other friends except you! So, is there anyone you wanna, y'know, date in our class?"

Bakugou's eyes widened, face going red. "E-eh? That's fucking gross..."

"Yeah, but is it a yes or a no? If you lie that means you lose!"
