What He Can Never Get Back

Ch. 4

(TW: Self-deprecation, r@pe mentions,and PTSD)

"I followed street signs until reached UA, I listened her and never once looked behind me. I never stopped running. Since I didn't have my ID I made a grand entrance by causing the security system to go off as I broke in and ran into the dorms. I collapsed to the living room floor before heroes busted in, ready to attack me. They stood shocked at the sight before you all ran down."

"Then you said 'Surprise' in a dry and raspy voice." Shoto chuckled as he recalled.

"Yeah." Bakugo laughed as they both smiled, but soon enough his smile faded.

"Go show the voice recording to Aizawa-Sensei before I change my mind."

"But-"

"Hurry up before I can chase you down!"

Todoroki slowly stood up before hurrying from the room and sprinting down the hallway. Bakugo pressed his legs to his chest as he stared at the door.

Thoughts circled his mind as he questioned if he should stop him.

On one hand, he may make it but would never again get the courage to tell anyone again, on the other everybody would know what had happened.

He didn't know what he feared more, them knowing or how they would react from the knowledge.

Storys never told of men getting raped and women getting raped was hushed over as well in Japan, he never thought it happening to him was even a possibility.

He feared that he would have to face that he can't always be the strongest.

He feared that he can't always save everyone.

He feared that, maybe, he would need saving.

Looking to the clock he noticed that he had been in his own thoughts for the last five minutes, he would already be with Aizawa by now. That's when fear kicked in.

'What if he's showing the whole class, what if they are laughing right now?' He froze in horror as he got up and ran.

Listening as he passed each room to see if he heard sound, he ran towards Aizawa's office.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

The recording was finishing up when a blond bursts into the room.

Aizawa had tears swelling up in his eyes as he sat in his desk chair, Todoroki on a couch. No one else in the room.

"I-I.. Uhm... I-I should g-go!" He internally yelled at the stutter he voiced.

Shigaraki had injured his head badly on the first night there, he now had a bit of speech problems. Normally, he would focus on the pronunciation and force away a stutter but it took a bit of focus. That, he did not have at the moment.

"BAKUG-" Aizawa tried to get him to come back but he was off and out the main doors.

"I have sent you the voice file. Please excuse me Sensei." Todoroki ran after him as classmates woke up due to the ruckus.

"Aizawa-Sensei, have you gotten more info?"

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

Todoroki was trailing the blond by around ten feet.

"Katsuki!" He said in a panicked breath. "I'm sorry, you said I coul-"

Bakugo abruptly stopped. 'He thinks I'm upset with him?'

The trembling body turned around.

"S-Shoto I'm scared."

Shoto didn't know whether it were good or not that Bakugo was letting out the now-natural stutter he had.

"Why..?" He questioned, yes it was a dumb question but there were so many possibilities of what his main problem at the moment could be.

"I can't b-be-be weak, I hav-ve to be able to save ot-th-thers! The class-" He let out a frustrated groan as he focused on his speech.

"The class will think of me as weak.." He whispered.

'I should've known.' Todoroki thought for a moment.

"May I touch you?" The heterochromic man asked as the blond considered the request.

Once the blond gave a gentle nod he walked up to him and pulled him into his arms.

"If they think of you as weak then they are moronic."

"W-Whats up with yo-you and big words you damn peppermint?" He insulted to lighten up the mood.

While they didn't know why, they did see a behavior change in Bakugo Katsuki.

"Ok Pomeranian."

"B-BITCH!"

"The stutter knocks off some fear points." Bakugo gasped at the shade that was thrown his way.

They were all fearful of what caused this change, what was so bad as to break down the indestructible walls that made up Bakugo.

"Just facts." Bakugo let off some small explosions.

They were all so dense as to not notice that those indestructible walls had always been crumbling.

"Problem children?"

Even the symbol of peace and the hero of the shadows that had become his new role model were to dense to have noticed.

"Back inside, in the morning police are coming to speak to you and if you wish, Bakugo, Todoroki may join."

"I'd prefer if the damn extra joined." Bakugo said, keeping his stutter down.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

The police arrival was set for ten o'clock, until then UA staff would discuss the joining of Toga Himiko. They discussed how they could make it to were she would be fit in society standards.

During this, Bakugo made his way to the Support Department to speak with Mei Hatsume. While it was eight o'clock on a Saturday morning, her obsession with her 'babies' were worse than Toga with blood.

Knocking on the door to the mechanical room that had a drilling sound behind it.

With a knock, he opened the heavy door and looked around.

"Hatsume-San?"

"Hello-! Wait... Boom boom boy from class 2-A?! How may I help you!!" She squealed.

"I have a design I need you to create."

"Sure Bakugo-Senpai! Tell me your idea. "

"I actually have more to offer than just an idea."

"What do you mean?"

The blond pulled a paper from his back pocket and gently unraveled it, holding out out to her as she eagerly snatched it up.

"What... Is this?"
