NEW YEAR, NEW CHAPTER!!!

(part 1)

Bakugou sat in his bedroom on the edge of his bed, counting the cash collected from the people living in his territory. Mina walked in, her aura more serious than usual. She frowned, throwing thick envelopes beside him.

"Why do you keep coming in here?" Bakugou asked, continuing to count the money. He was trying to avoid any more confusion between him and Y/N. Though he didn't do anything wrong, he still wants to be considerate enough so you could shut the hell up.

"Someone was selling in our areas. They're not even from 'round here," Mina explained, "took everything from them." she started, gesturing towards the envelopes. "That's it?" Bakugou asked.

"We should do something about it. This is the 5th time someone has tested the waters in our territory. They think we're weak and I don't blame them." Mina then began to go on and on about the situation.

Bakugou tsked, causing Mina to finally stop talking. "You're right. I've been too soft towards everyone. Get out." he said.

"What?"

"Get the fuck out of my room, Mina!" He said, pushing her out. Bakugou closed his door before getting dressed in an all-black turtle neck and black jeans. He quickly checked himself and then headed to your bedroom. And without knocking, he barged in.

You were sitting on your bed while Denki was lying on your floor. "Why is it that every time I come in here, Denki's here?" he questioned, stepping over him. Denki frowned. Bakugou stood over him, "Get out," He argued.

Denki looked at you before leaving, not even making a tiny fuss. "He didn't have to leave," you said.

"Well if you like getting dressed in front of other guys then I wouldn't mind calling him and a few others back in for you. I'm fine just as long as I'm the only one who can touch," Bakugou smirked, obviously joking. You scoffed, "Why do I need to get dressed."

"Business," he answered shortly, heading out, "Be ready in five, and don't bring anything," he ordered. Without objecting, you quickly got up and got dressed.
------

You and Bakugou sat at the bar of a club that's far away from where you guys lived. You looked around, everyone was dancing and drinking, nothing too out of the ordinary for a nightclub. "This is far from our territory-" you pointed out as Bakugou ordered two drinks from the bartender. "Of course, this is an enemy's spot."

"So are we going to kill them or something?"

"With what weapons?" He asked. He seemed all too confident in his safety, while you were damn near about to panic. "You didn't bring any weapons?!" you questioned. "You didn't either." Bakugou counter, grabbing a drink that was brought to him a second ago. "Because you told me not to bring anything!" You said. You noticed that you were being a bit too loud and had caught the attention of a group of people nearby.

You got up and stood directly in front of Bakugou, putting your arms on both sides of him. It was a sad attempt to prevent his face from being seen. "What are you doing?" Bakugou asked, your body became stiff from how uncomfortable the situation and the pose were. "They'll notice you before they'll ever notice me so I'm trying to buy you some time so we could get the hell out of here."

"Well, this is awkward. It looks like you're trying to do something strange for some change." he chuckled. He grabbed you by the waist and sat you on his lap. "I'm waiting for someone. So I'm not leaving until I find them."

"Who are we waiting on? A drug lord?"

"I wouldn't call him a drug lord, just some little bitch who always tests me." he hissed, downing his second drink. "You want a drink?" he asked, "Or are you still hungover from last night?." He smirked, he was still a bit salty from the argument, and from that moment you figured he only brought you along so he could play around with you.

You narrowed your eyes, "Being petty isn't cute, Bakugou," you said, causing him to chuckle.

You shifted a bit, trying to get another look around. "Keep moving like that and I'll get hard," he said half-jokingly, tightening his grip around your waist. You bit the inside of your cheek, wanting to either ignore what he said or play along with him. And honestly at the moment, playing along didn't seem too bad. Besides, no one would interrupt two people during their time of intimacy.

You moved your hips a bit more, grinding slowly on Bakugou. "Y/N," He called out your name shakily, obviously not expecting you to keep going. He groaned a little, "Fuck~ I could just fuck you right here, Y/N. " He grinned, his head tilted back a bit while still maintaining eye contact.

You became flustered, quickly placing your forehead on his shoulder. "Did that turn you on?" He asked. "Shut up," You replied. Before the two of you could exchange any more words, someone yelled out Bakugou's name. You turned to see an angry guy with silver hair and a blond guy with a cocky look on his face.

"What?" Bakugou spat, letting you out of his lap.

"I thought we told your bitch ass not to come back here." The silver-haired guy said. He was slightly taller and a bit more muscular than Bakugou. He was also fucking obnoxious and loud. "Yeah, but I don't care." Bakugou shrugged. "Do I need to beat your ass again-" the guy said as he reached out to grab Bakugou by the shirt. You reacted quickly, grabbing the guy by his arm and twisting it behind his back.

"Again? Tetsu, you couldn't even touch me. Not then, and not now. Pathetic ass," Bakugou grimaced as Tetsu groaned, attempting to get out of your grip.

"Sorry about Tetsu, still a bit upset about last year." The blond said to Bakugou, "I see you have someone new with you," he said. He took two steps forward and held his hand out for a handshake. "Neito Monoma," he greeted. You looked at Bakugou, he nodded, and you let go of Tetsu to shake Monoma's hand. "Y/N," you said.

Monona grinned, side-eyeing Bakugou. "What brings the two of you here," Monoma asked you. You, once again, looked at Bakugou. He threw a punch in a blink of an eye. "Damn," you unconsciously said aloud while Monoma sat on the floor with a bloody nose.

You had to hold Tetsu down again but this time he was restless, squirming and yelling to be released. Monoma groaned, placing his fingers on the blood dripping from his mouth. "You're sending people to sell drugs in my territory again. Now usually I don't do this myself but you piss me off." Bakugo kneeled, looking Tetsu dead in the eyes.

"Now watch me. THIS is how you beat someone's ass," He smiled before punching Monoma in the face repeatedly. He caused blood and bruises all over his face. People began to gather around and watch, but no one dared to stop him. "Bakugou... That's- That's enough," you said, seeing as Monoma was almost unconscious.

Bakugou stood up, looking at what he had done as if it was a masterpiece. "Alright, let's go..."
------

The car ride back to the house was uncomfortable and silent. "Why did you do that?" you asked.

"He can't fight, but he always does shit because he's "untouchable"," Bakugou answered. "You would have killed him if I hadn't told you to stop?" You asked.

"If you feel bad for him, don't," Bakugou said, "Monoma has done worse things than me. And every Blue Moon, we cross paths and I beat someone's ass," he answered. You nodded,  taking a look at him. "Can we continue where we left off in the club?" you asked. Bakugou stopped the car, a bit surprised.

"Alright"
