Instant Karma - Katsuki B. x Reader

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Your room looked like a bomb had gone off. There were clothes everywhere and you had to meet Bakugou in two hours.

You had no idea what to wear so you did what any sane person would do and called backup.

"I'm here." Mina huffed. She clearly ran to your dorm, her chest rising and falling at a slightly alarming rate. "Now sit down and let me do my magic."

You didn't argue and took a seat on your bed.

"So what kind of date is it?"

You shrugged "He wasn't really specific on what kind of date it was."

"Of course, he wasn't, but since it's Bakugou I'm going to assume it's casual." She began picking some of the clothes off your floor and laying them out on your bed next to you. "So we need something cute but casual."

She held up a few shirts, comparing the colors. You sat there quietly waiting for her decision. She handed you a shirt, jeans, and a pair of your cleanest sneakers.

"Go put this on." She left no room for question as she pushed you into the half bathroom. You were quick to put it on, not wanting to keep Mina waiting. You liked the outfit. Though you were not surprised because Mina had good taste. It was the reason you asked her for help.

You stepped out of the bathroom to find Mina going through your make-up and jewelry. You're starting to think she is more excited about this date than you are.

"You look cute, now come over here so I can get you all dolled up." Once again you didn't argue. You sat in your desk chair and let the pink-skinned girl work whatever kind of magic she had.

Before you knew it you were all ready to go. You looked good, and you hope Bakugou shared the same opinion on your outfit as you did.

You take deep nervous breaths as you make your way to the front of the dorm building. You were good at a lot of things but dating was not one of them. You step outside and see the blonde waiting. It calms your nerves to see he was also in casual clothes.

"You look nice." You said as you approached him. He looked up and saw you. He

stared for a few moments before slipping his phone into his back pocket.

"Tch, you don't look awful either." a small smile appears on your face from the blonde's attempt at a compliment.

The two of you began walking. It was quiet, the two of you were both waiting to see who would start a conversation.

"So where are we going?" You ask, breaking the silence.

He smirks, "It's a surprise."

"Oh come on, you can tell me."

"Nope."

"I'm a spy, I hate surprises."

"Not telling you."

You playfully rolled your eyes. You both continue with a conversation and a little teasing. Once the first date awkwardness faded it was easy to fall back into how you normally were.

But soon the walk came to an end when you approached an arcade. You arch an eyebrow at your date. "Just follow me dumbass."

You nod and follow him with suspicion. He leads you through the arcade and you find yourself in front of a neon sign that reads 'LAZER TAG'.

Bakugou looked over at you and knew he made the right decision by the big smile on your face. Your positive response to his Idea caused a small smile to appear on his face.

You turn to him "I hope you're ready to lose."

"In your dreams" he scoffed.

The two of you get geared up and to your luck, you get put on opposite teams. You are quick to find cover, giggling to yourself as you see a tuft of ash blonde hair. You turn your corner and hit him square in the back. His vest turns a bright red and the blonde begins to walk back to his base to reload.

The darkroom is perfect to find cover. You take out many of his teammates, most of them not seeing you. You had to admit the game was kind of unfair due to your training with real guns. But you were having fun so it didn't matter.

You came face to face with Bakugou many times, and all of them ended the same way. With him walking back to his base.

There were times when you could hear him yelling at your teammates and you couldn't help but laugh.

Soon the timer went off and it revealed your team's victory. The blonde sulked but what really got him was when the top gunman score came up on the screen. Your screen name came up in bright blue letters causing the blonde to pout.

"That's what you get for challenging an agent to laser tag." You boast, walking alongside the pouting blonde.

"Shut up."

You get an idea and smirk "You cute when you get all pouty."

A warm red blooms over the blonde's face. "First, I'm not fucking pouty, second I'm not cute."

"Yes, you are to both."

"No, I'm fucking not."

The two of you go back and forth before you get tired. You let him be in denial of his adorableness in an aggressive way. As the two of you walk down the street you notice a ramen restaurant on the corner.

You point to the restaurant. "Wanna get food?"

He nods and you walk inside. It was a quiet place and you really did enjoy the food. Bakugou was especially surprised that you let him pay for the meal. Your excuse was that the loser pays, but in reality, you thought you would give him a chance to do the thing you have been denying him to do.

And that was paying for your food.

Walking back to the dorms was peaceful. The two of you talked and had calm conversations. You both avoided the topic of recent events.

He walked you up to your dorm and stood there. "Tonight was fun." He said. He looked like he wanted to ask you something but was having an internal debate about it. But you could tell what the question was by the way his eyes danced from your eyes to your lips.

You smiled and leaned up, answering his question for him.

That night you learned three things about Bakugou Katsuki. The first is that if you looked past all the aggression he was actually a big sweetheart. The second was spicy ramen, which was his favorite food. And the last thing was he had never been kissed before. You knew this by how sloppy yet fragile the kiss was.

But you wouldn't have it any other way.
