Our Pride

Bakugo's POV

Pride Day was tomorrow. Everyone is excited. Everyone is going out and buying pride themed clothes if they didn't have any already. I was just finding my pride flag, in which I kept in my closet. It was in there just in case anyone came in and I hadn't or wasn't ready to tell. A knock brought my attention. The knock was a rhythmic one so I immediately knew it was Kiri.

"Come in!" I cry.

I hear the door open and Kiri walks in.

"Hey, Kat! What'cha doing?" He asks with a cute voice.

"Trying to find my Pride Flag."

"You keep it in your closet?"

"Yep."

"Why?"

"In case someone comes in and I haven't told anyone."

"Oh... Um, Kat?"

"Yeah?" I pull myself out of my closet and sit back on my heels, holding my flag in my hands while I look at him.

"I was wondering... Since no one has asked about it yet... Do you think we should take the opportunity to tell everyone...?" He asks, slightly nervous and scared for my answer.

"... I guess it should be all right."

"You sure?! I don't want to make you uncomfortable because of it!"

"It's fine, Ei. It'll be the perfect chance to take. We come out to the rest of the class with our sexualities and, as an addition, we tell them about our relationship."

"Thanks, Kat. So? How are you going tomorrow?"

"I was thinking about wearing this as cape." I reply holding up my flag. "You?"

"Well, Mina is buying some more face paint for painting pride flags on our faces. Sero, Denki and I are going to. Why don't you do it too?"

"Maybe... What are you wearing?"

"I don't have anything to wear, unfortunately..."

"Good thing I asked my parents to make me two outfits for tomorrow."

"Really?!"

"Yeah. They should be here soon. You can choose which one you want to wear and I'll wear the other one. I don't care."

"AH?! Thank you Kat! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!"

Kiri throws himself at he and we fall to the floor. Another knock on my door paired with a voice I know too well. The Hag.

"Come in!" I answer as Kiri gets off me.

"I've got your clothes, Brat."

"Thanks hag."

"Who's your friend?"

"He's not just a friend."

"Hello ma'am! I'm Kirishima Eijiro! Katsuki's boyfriend!"

"Boyfriend, huh? Good for you, brat."

The hag gives us the clothes and walks out. I let out an agitated sigh. She could be so fucking nosey sometimes. I look over to see Eijiro sorting through the outfits.

It was Pride Day. Raccoon Eyes and the group had managed to persuade me into face paint. I have a gay pride flag painted on both my cheeks, as well as my pride flag hanging from my shoulders like a cape. I'm wearing a black shirt and matching shorts, that has a ripped pattern, revealing the rainbow colours underneath. The hag and the old man had also customised a pair of hearing aids for me to wear as well. I place a container of rainbow powder in my pocket. My little secret for later.
