You left me behind

Chapter 10: Party

Bakugou's pov

Flashback

"Katsuki!"

"Yes Shoto?" I looked deeply into his eyes

"Have you heard? The dance is going to happen next week!" He smiled brightly

"You should try to ask Deku to go with you."

"I don't want to go with him."

"Why not?"

"Because it could be our last time together."

I laughed and tried to detect what he was thinking. Shoto has been acting different but this is very unlike him.

"So can we go together?"

"Of course we can! But what makes me more special than Deku?"

"You'll actually look for me, plus you're always here for me."

"But he's your crush."

He shrugged and sat next to me on the bench. Both of us looking into the distance at the darkening sky.

The lights shining in his eyes but there's always another look. Maybe of sadness but why is he sad?

"What would happen if I ended up missing some day?"

"I would look for you until my feet grow tired and my hands numb from the cold."

"What if you never find me?"

"I'll always find you, even in the darkest of moments."

He looked at me and shook his head. Almost like it wasn't much reassurance but somewhat helpful. He gave a quick kiss to my cheek and we both started walking home.

"If you think you're in danger just leave breadcrumbs."

"The problem with that is nobody would ever figure it out."

――――――――♡♡♡――――――――

"I'm sorry Katsuki but you might be able to make some friends!"

"I don't need anyone else!"

"Katsuki you're going to that party!"

"It's with the religious people though, plus it's a Halloween party! How does that make any sense?"

"I don't know but that doesn't mean you can't go."

"It's going to be stupid!"

"Stop complaining and go get ready for it."

I rolled my eyes and stomped all the way up the stairs. Opening and slamming my door behind me.

Rummaging through my closet for whatever I could find. Finally I just wore a black hoodie with grey jeans.

It's not like anyone actually cares what I wear. I looked in the mirror, must've stared at myself for a while.

For some reason it was like I could see Shoto. Him sitting on the bed laughing with a huge smile on his face. One of the most pure faces.

The saddest truth is that I don't know what was really happening behind that mask. Was he ever really happy with me?

I wish I could take the position that he's in right now. Honestly probably his whole life just so he could be happy.

But what if Shoto was just born to be cursed? Like if he wasn't born in the same family would this actually have turned out different?

*Later at the party*

This is already really dumb. The music is trash, everyone seems awkward, and I don't remember anyone except those red spikes if hair.

He was someone in my class when we were in 7th grade. I tried being friends with him but Shoto always got jealous so it never worked out.

I only needed Shoto so I never second guessed him. Standing at the food table wondering if I should even eat a voice called out.

"Hey Bakugou! How've you been after the incident?"

"What incident?"

He looked around the room,"The one with Todoroki."

"I'm fine, I'll find him soon."

Kirishima held his breath like he was nervous. Always thought this shark boy was odd.

"Want a drink?"

"Depends if it's as bad as everything else here."

"It's not that bad here!"

"You think it isn't, but really it's boring."

"It's not boring with you here."

"What does that mean?"

"You always bring a flare to everything. Basically attitude."

I rolled my eyes and grabbed a cup. My cup got filled and Kirishima followed.

He wouldn't leave me alone. I made so many attempts and he's still here! Possibly he has some information.

"So what made you come here tonight?"

"I was invited."

"So do you not come to the church?"

"Sometimes but not very often."

"So who invited you?"

I could see the panic set into his eyes once he realized. My eyes didn't look away for one second making sure he felt intimidated.

"You're mother."

That's what made me pissed. I quickly stood up dropping my cup and storming out into the rainy night. She's spying on me for some reason.
