"Where were you?."

How it started..

_______________________________

"Hey Bakug—."

He kept walking..

"Hey, wait up!." He said laughing, try to catch up with his angry friend.

He didn't stop or turn around, he just kept walking...

Kirishima stopped his light jog, and looked towards the blonde, confused.

And that's how it started.
________________________________

The bell rang and Kirishima ran towards Bakugou's desk.

"Bakugou, do you want to train late-."

"Kacchan!, you ready to train?.

Kirishima stopped, eyes widen. Bakugou and Midoriya? Training together?.

"Course nerd, I'm gonna kick your ass!."

"We'll see Kacchan." Midoriya says laughing a little, while Bakugou glares at him out of the corner of his eye.

The two walked off, they're voices get quieter the further the walk away.

Kirishima smiled, Bakugou and Midoriya were finally on good terms with each other.

Kirishima started to walk out of class smiling to himself, happy that Bakugou was talking with Midoriya and getting along, but for some reason there was a pit in stomach that he just could shack off.
_______________________________

It's now been 2 months since Bakugou last spoke to Kirishima.

He didn't know if he had done something to upset the blonde, but Kirishima was definitely upset about the distance between them.
They hadn't trained together, they hadn't hung out, they even stopped the study sessions because Kirishima could never get close enough to the blonde to talk to him about it without him walking off without a word.

Kirishima was sat at his desk, trying to do his homework, but kept zoning out to the sound of the birds chirping outside his open balcony door.

He was chewing his pencil trying to remember the formula for trigonometry.

"Kirishima, what is going on?!."

Mina, Kaminari and Sero busted through his door, with no regard to what Kirishima was doing.

Kirishima screamed and fell out his desk chair, hitting the floor, hard.

"What do you guys want?." Kirishima stood up, rubbing his butt from the fall.

"What's the hell is happened between you and Bakugou!?, I swear if he said something to you I'm ready to beat his ass." Said Mina rolling up her sleeves.

Kaminari and Sero back up a little to the door.

"No, no no no, nothings happened." Said Kirishima waving his hands in defence.

"Then why is he flat out ignoring you?.' Said Sero raising his eyebrow, Kaminari nodding along.

"He's just been training with Midoriya more and our final exam is coming up too." Said Kirishima, smile falling, just a little.

"But it isn't an excuse to not even talk to you." Said Mina, and Kirishima's smile falls more.

"Kiri, you have such a big heart and we're just worried that you could get hurt." Mina stops to take a breath.

"We know that you see Bakugou as you're best friend, but he can't just stop talking to you without telling you why."

Kirishima looks down at his feet frowning, taking in everything that they're telling him.

"Look dude, we'll leave-." Said Sero

Mina whips her head round to look at Sero. "But-!." Mina cut in.

"But!, you need to get your priorities straight, we'll be in the common room, you can come down when you want." Sero said smiling at him.

Kirishima doesn't look up, but nods at them.

"Ok.., let's go guys." Sero says turning around.

"Fine.." Mina says sighing.

"When your ready to talk to us about how you feel about it, we'll be here bro." Said Kaminari, going to follow Sero.

When the two walk out Mina walks up to Kirishima and hugs him. "Please don't bottle it up Kiri, ok."

Kirishima looked up at her and gave her a understanding look.

She started to walk out the door waving at him while closing the door behind her.

As soon as the door behind Mina closed Kirishima collapsed onto his bed, sighing shakily.

He looked up at the ceiling, an orange light hitting off it from the open balcony.

He knew that if this kept up, his friendship with Bakugou, that he spend so much time to work towards, would end, and even if he didn't want to acknowledge it , he knew that he had to accept it...

It was dawn when Bakugou and Midoriya were training on the training grounds.

They were sat down taking a quick break to have some water.

Midoriya was glancing over at Bakugou from the corner of his eye.

He had been really worried about Bakugou's anger, even though he hadn't been directing his anger to him, he had been more aggressive towards people in school, but also with strangers in public.

It had been getting worse everyday, and Midoriya had realised it started getting worse ever since Kirishima stopped making attempts to talk to Bakugou, which was Bakugou's fault when he started ignoring him and Midoriya was determined to figure out why.

Ever since Bakugou and Kirishima became friends in first year, Midoriya saw a change in Bakugou, he became calmer, he was more social and had a great group of friends and then all of a sudden he just stopped talking to all of them.

Midoriya sighed, and Bakugou looked up at him with his eyebrow raised.

"Fucking spit it out already!." Midoriya's eyes widened.

"Wha-."

"You clearly want to ask me something, you're fidgeting with the fucking bottle, so spit it out!" Bakugou said, giving him a blank expression.

"I've just been wondering, why..." Midoriya hesitated.

"Why did you start to ignore Kirishima~Kun last year?." Bakugou froze, and turned his head away from Midoriya.

Midoriya was watching his eyes shift from place to place, and watch as he started to fidget with his fingers, a bad habit that he got from over using his quirk at times.

"I...it's just..." Bakugou sighs

"..complicated..." He barley whispers.

Midoriya was very surprised by his reaction, he expected to get yelled at to mind his business or something, but this was off..

All of a sudden Midoriya's alarm went off, he set it for when he had to start getting ready for class.

Bakugou suddenly stands up and starts to walk off.

"Hurry up, I'm not gonna be late to class because of you." Bakugou says with his head held high, but not in his usual cocky demeanour, his eyebrows were furrowed and he had a frown on his face, not an angry scowl, but a sad face.
