Concept 14 - Soap

Nobody's dropping any soap. This is pure fluff inspired by a new shampoo my mom got me for Christmas. Let's say they're established, but still a little new to their relationship. So, late first year/early second year.

Aside from the explosive blonde, himself, the boys of the Bakusquad were fascinated by Ashido's hair washing routine. Her hair was thick and curly, if not coily, and easily got tangled and matted if she neglected it, and the boys were surprised at how long it took her to simply wash her hair, as well as the amazing quality of her multiple hair products. In turn, Ashido was proud to know that they at least knew what it was like to take care of their hair. Sero had good quality product that kept his hair sleek and silky, Kaminari had a special product for people with electricity based quirks that keeps his hair from being frizzy, Kirishima had his tinted shampoo to maintain his dyed hair, and attempts to moisture shock it despite it being fried by bleach at this point...however, Kirishima, being the himbo he is, has terrible taste in skincare. Ashido nearly fake fainted at the sight of his Axe Two-in-One body and face soap. She went straight into Mama Mina mode and took him on a skincare shopping spree, then taught him his new multi-step routine. She even got him a new body wash, exfoliating scrubs, and lotion, since she knows how his quirk can make his skin sensitive and flakey. After that first use of everything, he was amazed at how relaxed and refreshed he felt, and would soon find out that his new routine wouldn't just benefit him. After he had finished his shower and routine, he had been relaxing in his room, finishing up some homework, when his boyfriend let himself in and kicked the door closed behind him before stomping over to his bed and flopping down atop the covers.

Kirishima didn't mind him not knocking, especially since it seemed like he was very much agitated. Bakugou usually came in here when he wanted to vent.
"Hey babe," Kirishima says, putting down his pencil and standing up from his desk. "You ok?" He gets muffled grumbling as a response, but he's pretty sure he heard 'Fucking peachy.' Kirishima knows sass when he hears it. He sits at the head of the bed and crosses his legs, putting a hand on his back. "Long day?" he asks, knowing full well he looked more miffed than usual all day. Bakugou turns his head so he's facing his boyfriend, and Kirishima refrains from giggling at his adorable angry pout. He's a little surprised when the blonde abruptly gets up and crawls into his lap, hooking his legs around his waist and burying his face in his shoulder with a huff. A blush blooms on the redhead's cheeks, as this doesn't happen a whole lot. Usually, he's the one to initiate cuddles. It's rare for Bakugou to do this, and it always gets him a little flustered, but he happily wraps his arms around him, relaxing against the headboard of his bed.
"Long, frustrating, annoying day," Bakugou confirms, then pauses. He raises his face from its place in Kirishima's shoulder, sniffing the air. "The fuck is that smell? Is that you?" he asks, looking up at him, seemingly not as agitated.
"Oh! Mina got me some new body wash and lotions and stuff to replace my old one! I think it's like this woody, musky, cinnamon-y smell? Do you like it?" he asks.

Bakugou pauses again, thinking.
"Yeah...you smell like a forest...'s nice," he mutters, a blush on his cheeks.
"Awe, thanks! I'm glad you like it! Now, do you wanna tell me about your day or-" The blonde cuts him off with a gentle kiss to his lips, leaving Kirishima as red as his hair.
"Just shuddup," Bakugou says when pulling back and snuggling back into his shoulder. "You talk too much." He can feel the idiot's heart pounding in his chest at the affection, but he focuses on that smell. He takes a deep breath, inhaling the smell of a forest and of fall, of a mountain hiking trip with the man he loves. He exhales, thinking about the peace of the forest and the challenge of the mountain, inhaling again while thinking of he and Kirishima scaling that mountain, camping together by a lake, sharing their warmth while watching the stars. Suddenly, he isn't so angry anymore. Needless to say, they both really like Kirishima's new body wash.

Short and sweet. Happy New Year guys!
