Just You and I || (Bakugo x Reader)

You stare at yourself in the full length mirror hanging on the wall of your apartment hall. You feel a warm, large hand gently hold your left shoulder, and you dont need to look up to know that Toshinori is standing behind you, giving you a warm smile which radiates throughout the whole room.

"Are you ready? You look smart in that uniform."

"Of course I do. I look good in anything," You reply bluntly, scratching your lower back. The truth is, the uniform is very much itchy. You long to be back in your grey sweatpants and (f/c) oversized t-shirt, the comfywear you put on on whenever your at home being lazy, not doing hero work.

Toshinori laughs and transforms into his muscular form.

"Well then, young Y/N, no time to lose!" And with that, you set off down the streets of Tokyo with All Might.

You are going on a long-term mission Toshi has given you - someone in UA is a traitor and they need to find out who is helping the league of villains, especially after the USJ attack. The story you're going with is that you were a late recommendation, and you're going to fake your quirk and call it 'phasing' so people don't become too suspicious of your hero identity as Spirit.

You were lucky enough to be chosen to infiltrate the school and spy on the possible suspects, even with your social skills, as well as protecting class 1-A and the green haired teenage boy you got a file on. All Might's successor.

40 minutes late.

40 fucking minutes.

You practically jog down the halls of U.A. high, looking for class 1-A from the hero course. Thanks to All Might and his crazy habits of having to stop every single crime within 10 miles, you were already half an hour late for class. Plus, you spent 10 minutes actually trying to find the class you were assigned to. You pull your hood down further, avoiding having to ask anyone for directions, or worse, have someone come up to you themselves to start a conversation. Instead, you stare at your feet as they rush through endless halls, each identical from the last.

Eventually, you begin to realise the fact that the halls are completely empty, meaning all classes have started and you are officially late. What a great impression to leave on your first day. You have no idea where you are, or even if you are in the right place to find the hero course - for all you know, you could have been running in circles this whole time, not noticing because of the corridors that all look way too similar.

As a pro hero ranked 4th, you sure are clueless when it comes to direction.

You decide to stop next to a vending machine, pulling out your phone to ask toshinori where the hell you are and if he could come and help you out of these hell-hole halls. Your phone notifications have exploded from good luck texts from your hero friends, including Rumi (Mirko), Keigo (hawks) and Hakamata (best jeanist). a lot of these messages read along the lines of "good luck on your mission" or "be sure sure to make some friends"! Tch. You dont need friends. you have them, your family, and anyone other than that would be a nuisance to your job and your life. You reply with a "shut the hell up" to silence their texts and slide your phone back into the pocket of your jacket so you can try and think clearly.

Still wondering around the halls of UA, you can feel someone else watching and approaching you. It must be an attacker. Besides, who else would be in these corridors at this time? Isn't everyone supposed to be in class?

Without a second to lose, you spin around and lift your leg to surprise attack the person who was trying to follow you. Instead, you feel your foot being held in place by a warm forearm. Looking up, you see a blonde haired boy with vermilion eyes and a scowl on his face. You shield your eyes with your hood once again, embarrassed that you tried to attack another pupil.

"Are you Y/N L/N?" He asks in an angry growl. You nod, refusing to look at him in the face.
"I'm here to get your ass to class. Now hurry the fuck up, unless you want a detention."

He silently stomps down the hallway, hands in his pockets, eyes focused forward. You don't want to get lost again, especially after Eraserhead - Mr Aizawa - sent a student to come and get you, so you pick up your pace and quietly follow the spiky-haired boy, before he gets out of your sight again.

Just 4 minutes later, the grumpy teenage boy slumps through a gigantic door with the initials of 1-A, closely followed by you.

"I brought the girl," he says, not even giving the teacher a second glance. As he strolls over to the other side of the classroom, you feel all eyes swivel toward you. Your head automatically drops to your chest, but it doesn't stop your head burning from the class's laser-like eyes.

"Alright. Go ahead and introduce yourself," Mr Aizawa says in a boring tone, obviously not wanting to be here and probably just wanting to go to sleep. That's exactly how you feel.

Your lift your head an inch to glare at the class, wanting them to know how much you really don't want to be here, expecting to see a bunch if bored or judgemental faces. Instead, you are greeted with positive smiles, a few people giving you a thumbs up, and a pink haired girl in the back is even throwing you a peace sign. You sigh at their high expectations of you, knowing you are no where near as social or happy to be here as they are. You feel your stomach bubble and your head feels light and dizzy, you know your anxiety is about to kick in and a panic rises in your chest as you start breathing heavily, heavily, heavily. Suddenly, their smiles are gone and replaced with worried looks or frowns. Your not as flexible as them, not good enough.

Not good enough.

Not good enough.

Not good enough.

Soon, the ballerina in your head stops spinning and your vision turns black. You collapse on the floor in front of the whole class, and that is when you think you know your mission at UA high is going to be absolute shit.
