Happy birthday to Bakugou <3

Bakugou's pov

I sigh, looking at the date as it flashes in bright white letters on my phone screen. April 20th. The time blaring in my eyes above that. 2:34am.

I yawn, eyes burning as I shut off my phone and lay back from being on my side. Yet again we pass into another birthday. Another year had past since my last and yet I still continue to age.

"Willow.. that you?" I ask softly, hearing a soft bell jingle and draw closer to my bed. The small weight of my ginger tabby joins me on the bed before she curls up on my chest. "Hi baby" I say softly, my voice rough and full of exhaustion.

I'll drop off at some point soon, I trained real hard yesterday so it shouldn't be too long either. Willow purrs softly as I begin to fall asleep with my hand in her fur.

<~>

"Morning Bakubro" Kirishima greets me with his classic toothy smile as I walk down after waking way too late my for morning routine.

Willow follows by my ankles as I carry her empty bowl with me to go put her some breakfast down. I grunt towards Kirishima in acknowledgement before continuing to the kitchen.

I put two slices of bread on to be toasted as I grab a tin of wet food for Willow. I put her food down, putting the empty tin in the bin and washing my hands before returning to finish making breakfast.

I eat and go back up to throw my uniform on and tuck the bowl away. I yawn, deciding to make a quick coffee. It's sweet because secretly, deep down I love sweet foods and drinks.

"Kid, happy birthday" Aizawa sensei says softly as he enters the kitchen in the dorms. I'm the only one in here so it's not a big deal he announced softly that it's my birthday.

"Thanks sensei" I say softly and he hums.

"I got something for you" Aizawa says and I turn around to see a card and a neatly wrapped present with a small bow tied on top.

"You didn't need to" I say softly, setting my coffee mug down and taking the gift and card from sensei.

"I did.. you're practically my son Katsuki.. birthday gifts are apart of your birthday" he says and I smile a little.

"Thank you Shota" I say softly and he hums.

"C'mon, I wanna know if I got it right" he says softly and I chuckle before opening the gift.

Inside is a box and inside the box are these cute cat socks that I wanted a while back but didn't bother getting because of how we live in the dorms.

"Wow.. I.. thank you, I love them so much Shota" I say happily, smiling softly as I take the socks out from the box.

"You can read the card later, that's fine..  I'm glad you like them" sensei says softly and I nod.

"Thank you" I sat softly before hugging my father figure and leaving to put the gift in my room.

I leave my door open enough so Willow can travel in and out. I then head back to finish my coffee and then head to class with sensei.

<~>

"Ooh.. special lunch?" Mina asks bumping in besides me as Aizawa comes with me through the lunch line.

I get birthday lunch with the school and I usually go off to the staff room to eat anyways. It's too noisy in the canteen, hurts my ears with my hearing aids in.

"Mm. Strict diet Mina" I say softly and she hums.

"Must take a lot to keep that figure" Mina says with a smirk and I hum, pretending she didn't just make that comment.

"Mina just get your lunch and go, me and Bakugou have a meeting to get to" Aizawa says softly before guiding me away by my shoulders.

We go through the back canteen doors and my favourite lunch man greets me with a tray of freshly cooked foods. My favourite foods too. Spicy chicken. A small curry, apple juice.

I'm so excited to just dig into these foods. Aizawa grabs his tray of teachers lunch before we go out and off to the staff room.

"So, how's the birthday boy?" Mic asks with a smile and I shrug.

"Eh.. well Mina commented on my figure in the canteen and I don't know whether it was implied positively or negatively. Class is class.. nothing too fun about it.. so overall.. pretty shit. Parents don't even want to see me" I say softly, picking at my spicy food that really just hit the spot.

"Sat right here" Shota mumbles and I scoff.

"Hush old man.. it's different.. my mother birthed me today so fucking long ago.. you'd think she'd at least message but no. The women's gentiles I was squeezed out from, that women doesn't care about me. It hurts Zawa.. and it always will" I rant out and Aizawa sighs heavily before getting up embracing me.

"Sorry kid.. I'm sorry.. me and Mic have a nice thing to take your mind off of that tonight. It's a surprise but just go to your dorm and change and meet us at the teachers lounge. Don't worry, you can dress casually" Shota says softly and I nod.

"Okay.. do you want me here for a certain time?" I ask softly and he shrugs.

"Just when you're ready" he says and I nod with a hum.

<~>

"You.. did all this for me?" I ask softly, looking at the fairy lights in the trees, the picnic blanket laid out on the floor. All the foods on plate. Eri and Shinsou sat with wide smiles and little gifts wrapped and topped with bows.

"We did kid, it's your birthday. It's a special day" Mic says and I smile, wiping my eyes on my sweat shirt.

"Do you like it? We weren't too sure whether you'd prefer this or something more formal like a restaurant" Shota says softly and I smile.

"I love it.. it's perfect" I say softly and turn to hug the two parental figures in my life.

"C'mon.. we got all your favourite foods and a special cake made" Mic says excitedly and the evening begins there. We eat, playfully joking about and throwing food once we're all full.

The night is filled with laughter and soft songs on the guitar that Shinsou learnt to play. It was just amazing. The best birthday in a long time. I couldn't think of no better way to spend the day other than with my family.
