*sigh*

I let out an exhausted sigh as I walked down the hallway in UA. As I was walking, I just couldn't get a thought out of my head.

'I'm sorry.... Himi.'

I frowned a bit as I thought back to those words Midoriya had said. Himi? Who is that? It was obviously someone he knew, but why was he apologizing to that name? And, why did he seem scared? There were just multiple questions that filled my head as I struggled to figure out who it could be. It's not someone he has talked about before. Well, it's not that he talks about other people to begin with, but still. I rubbed my head as I tried to think more about how exactly I would even find out.

"Seeya tomorrow Bakugo! Try not to bust a blood vessel by then!" A loud voiced yelled out as I looked up breaking from my thoughts.

"You trying to start a fight shitty hair!?" A loud, and annoyingly familiar voice, yelled back. Looking down the hall, I seen as Bakugo had began to walk my way. As he did, he noticed me as he took a exhausted sigh. He didn't say anything as he just walked by me as if trying to ignore I was even there. I felt a pinch of annoyance as he did, but I let it pass me as I turned away, but as I did, I stopped.

'If anyone would know about this...' I thought to myself as I prepared to have a very exhausting conversation.

"Bakugo, wait up!" I yelled out as I turned around and walked his way. I could practically see the annoyed mood he had gotten as I called out to him.

"If it's about the damn nerd again, like I said, talk to him about it. It's not my place." He said as he looked back at me.

"Yeah yeah, I know, but... This is something important..." I said as I looked his way. He stood silent for a moment as he took another exhausted sigh.

"What is it now?" He said annoyed. As much as I despise his shitty attitude, it's something I would have to yet again ignore for the time being. Taking a moment to speak, I looked up at him.

"Do you know someone named Himi?" I asked him as I watched his eyes go from slight shock, to a major glare in a moment.

"Where'd you get that name?" He asked with venom in his tone. I could immediately tell that he must have known who it is, however, it must not be the best of topics he had liked.

"I... Midoriya said that earlier. During the alarms during lunch. When everyone was panicking from the alarm, I got caught up in the crowd of students and I couldn't get out, let alone breath. Just before I blacked out, he pulled me out and had a tight grip on me before he said, 'I'm sorry, Himi.' after that, he looked scared then left." I explained to him as I stood there thinking back to the moment. Bakugo stood there for a moment as he looked to be thinking to himself, which in turn made him glare towards the ground.

"I'm assuming you know who it is?" I questioned as he looked up at me.

"If you want to know, ask him yourself." He said as he turned his back and began walking away.

"Bakugo, wait!" I yelled out as I rushed to catch up with him, but he quickly turned around as he stopped.

"Stop following me! And stop asking me about Deku already!" He yelled out.

"You obviously know who it is, so why won't you just tell me!?" I yelled back at him as he walked up to me and grabbed me by the collar of my shirt.

"Cause I already told you, it's not my place to tell you, so knock it off already!" He yelled back at me. Grabbing his arm that held my collar, I yelled back.

"You said that I was the one to help him, so that's what I'm doing! I'm trying to understand him, but it keeps ending in dead ends and more questions! Questions that you have the answers to!" I yelled back at him. I could feel his grip getting tighter on my collar as he glared at me.

"You are the one that can help him, but not through me!"

"Why not!?" I yelled as I gripped tighter on his arm to try and loosen his grip.

"Cause getting my help will make him hate you just as much as he hates me when I tried to help him!" He yelled out as I grew a shocked look on my face. As he yelled that, I could feel as his arm began to tremble slightly, his eyes went from a angry glare to a dejected frown. Slowly, he let up his grip of he let go of my collar.

"...I tried to help him, but now he hates me. If you were to try and get my help, it would only end the same way it did for me." He said as he looked towards the ground with a fist to his side.

"Bakugo..."

"I tried, and failed... And I'm not his friend anymore cause of it. I thought I knew what he needed, but I was wrong. That's why you need to help him, help him forget what he thinks he did." Bakugo said as he glared at the ground before turning his shoulder and facing the other way.

"Now it's your turn to try... So figure it out yourself, and find a better way." He said before he began to finally walk away. I kept my eyes on him as he walked away until he finally left my sight. I stood there silently in the empty hallway as brought my hand up to my collar he had took ahold of. After a moment, I turned around as I began to walk down the other way of the hall.

I thought about what Bakugo had said. The anger he felt as he held his grip on me. The words he said that would fill my head for the rest of that day.

'Find a better way.'
