Some Dreams Don't Come True

Chapter Eleven

🧡Bakugo's POV🧡

"DUDE! You didn't seriously cook all this food!?" Kirishima yelled.

I clenched my teeth stopping myself from jumping from how loud he was. "Yeah, yeah. It's nothing."

"No it really takes some skill to make food this good!" Denki exclaimed, stuffing his face with one of the meatballs from crockpot.

"Not if you know what you're doing." I smirked to myself, rather enjoying their praise.

"It's amazing, you know I'm a sucker for Dango!" Mina said holding her cheeks as she ate, Jirou along side her.

I looked at Deku who was smiling like an idiot at the scene before him. "Just like old times huh!" Kiri said his arm naturally grabbing around my shoulders into a side hug.

I felt myself tense, but ignored it.

"What did you want to play?" Denki asked, grabbing his backpack, "I know Midoriya has all the consoles so I just brought the games."

"I'm not sure, I'm fairly certain theirs a lot of new stuff I don't know about." I said, looking over the games he had out in front of me.

Kirishima's arm didn't leave my shoulder, and was a bit distracting. I really wasn't sure how to handle that while also trying to focus on a decision.

"How about we just start with something Classic then?" Sero said, pointing at Mario Party.

"You're going down!" Denki yelled.

I followed everyone towards Deku's living room, Kirishima still had his arm around me as we walked. I slightly shrugged until his arm fell off. He didn't seem to notice going on with what we were doing now. I sat in the floor in front of the couch and Sero handed me a controller.

Kirishima sat behind me on the couch, his legs on either side of my shoulders. Was he always this touchy? Thinking back on it he probably was, him and Denki both kind of were.

"I'll be back, Todoroki and Iida should be here soon." I heard Deku say, I looked up only to notice his distasteful look he was giving Kirishima before he left.

Was Deku jealous? Should I move so he isn't touching me? I sat up a bit so his legs weren't touching me as much.

💚DEKUS POV💚

I hate to say it but I was feeling a little jealous of his friends. He didn't look entirely comfortable with their touchiness, but I still felt jealous they were touching him. I don't think I realized before just how close him and Kirishima were.

I greeted Todoroki and Iida at the door, "Uraraka said she couldn't make it tonight, she's not feeling well." Iida said.

"That's too bad, it's rare we get to hang out together like this." I said honestly, hero work really was time consuming. At times the only time I got to see Uraraka was when we were patrolling together.

"Where is Bakugo?" Todoroki asked.

"He's in the living room with the others."

"I would like to talk to him." Todoroki said before exiting toward the living room.

I shrugged, he was always pretty straightforward about everything.

"Just stop saying his fucking name!" I heard Kacchans voice yell.

"Todoroki I don't know if that's the best thing to talk about bro." I heard someone say from the other room following the outburst.

Me and Iida looked at eachother before following the commotion. I looked to see Todoroki and Kacchan facing eachother, Todoroki had sat in front of him in the floor.

"I just wanted to apologize for his actions. Since he is related to me I feel responsible."

"That's stupid!" Kacchan growled, "Don't apologize for anything! Just drop it!"

I studied Kacchans facial expression, he looked uncomfortable, and slightly embarrassed.

"Hey, Todoroki! How about we gather some snacks from the kitchen!" I yelled trying to put everyone back at ease.

As Todoroki got up to follow me I noticed Kirishima had sat next to Kacchan now, his arm around his shoulder talking to him... jealousy is a terrible feeling.

"Let's avoid that subject entirely." I said to Todoroki as we were alone.

"I'm not sure why it was such an issue."

"He doesn't like to be reminded of what happened. He wants to move past it, and he can't if others treat him differently... or bring it up to him constantly."

"I see." Todoroki said holding his chin, "I'm sorry I brought it up then. Ill do my best to avoid that subject."

"Thank you." I smiled.

We grabbed a few things returning to our group of friends and I handed out some of the snacks. I sat on the other side of Kacchan and he looked up at me, a small smile on his face.

It was interesting to see him play games so well after not being able to for so long. I guess muscles really do hold memory because he was still dominating at all the older games.

"Man that's not fair!" Denki whined, pouting behind us on the couch.

"Not my fault, you had plenty of time to practice." Kacchan joked laughing.

It was nice to see him like this. It truly felt like old times.
