Bakugo's POV
Bakugo held the envelope he's been waiting for the entire week. After his encounter with his PenPal at the indoor rock climbing club, he's been having trouble focusing. This was highly annoying as distractions were a huge no for him. Especially after everything that happened with the league of villains, the last thing Bakugo wanted was to find himself in that position again.
Bakugo unfolded the letter and looked at the very familiar writing.
Dear King Explosion Murder:
Wow! An explosion quirk? I could have guessed that from your name but that sounds very powerful! Can you make fireworks with it? I'd love to see that one day! My Quirk is Telekinesis. I technically can move objects with my mind, which is helpful during combat, I've been working on learning how to 'float' myself. It's a working progress to say the least.
So you want to be greater than All Might? I think you can do it! I'm sure you have to right physical and mental capability, but make sure your heart is in the right place too.
You are correct, though, I am "a nerd" (poor choice of words if you ask me). I'm not exactly the strongest or most agile physically. Hand-to-hand combat is my weakness. If I'm being honest, I've been using my mind for everything that I don't exactly know how to use my body? I don't know if that makes any sense.
Either way, I did take your advice on working on my strength, I went rock climbing the other day since we briefly talked about it. I give you props, It was a lot harder then I thought it would be! I might go again sometime, but I think I'll stick to afternoon yoga class instead, the best way to exercise the brain AND the body.; either way, Thank you for the encouragement!
P.S. No questions this time, it's up to you on what you want to say or if you even want to reply, but truthfully I really hope you do.
xoxo
Ms.Mind Over Matter
Bakugo blinked a couple of times, trying to process everything he had just read. This was the first letter that wasn't some sort of questionnaire, and polite responses to his condescending answers. Ms.Mind Over Matter is being honest and vulnerable...
Why can't I write like this too... she admitted her weaknesses so easily... to me, a complete stranger....
Bakugo was quiet for most of the day. He tuned people out during class and In the hallways, and even though this wasn't far away from the usual, his friends were quick to notice.
"Hey man are you okay...?" asked Kirishima with a concerned look.
Bakugo glanced at him but didn't say anything, just simply shifting his focus back to his food. He was looking back at his own reflection from the untouched brother that was in front of him. Bakugo couldn't get her words out of his head:
"make sure your heart is in the right place too..."
Her struggle trying to figure out the rock-climbing equipment...
"Thank you for the encouragement!"
Her bright smile and the silly but cute peace sign she used in almost every picture.
"it's up to you on what you want to say or if you even want to reply, but truthfully I really hope you do"
The way they locked eyes when they first came face to face...Bakugo held his breath for those few seconds, he felt his pulse beat wildly. He couldn't help but to wonder if he would of felt the same if they had met without being Penpals. He also couldn't help to wonder what y/n's reaction would have been if she had known that he was King Explosion Murder, would she have been glad to meet him?
"Did Ms.Mind Over Matter say something to upset you?" Asked Kaminari.
"No..." said Bakugo with his chin resting on his palm while playing with his food with his other hand.
"The nwhat's up?" asked Kiri
"Nothing is up!" said Bakugo, finally starting to get annoyed with his friend's constant nagging. Bakugo got up and decided to head to class early. He didn't really feel like talking to anyone at this moment.
As Bakugo walked home from school, something in him decided to take the longer route home. He needed time to think, and being at home being yelled by his nagging mother wasn't the answer.
Bakugo walked with his hands inside his pockets, looking down and avoiding eye contact with anyone on his way. However, he suddenly stopped when a sign in the middle of the street restricted his way.
"Try Yoga Today!!! First class for free! "
This felt almost like DejaVu....
"I think I'll stick to afternoon yoga class instead"
Bakugo looked towards the door, which led to the large display he was standing in front of. Right in the middle of the display, there she was, no other the Ms.Mind Over Matter herself
This is starting to feel like a poorly written Shojo manga... Thought Bakugo to himself.
Her movements seemed flawless and so easily connected one to another. It was almost like she was dancing. Everything about this...performance or whatever it was, seemed perfect. Bakugo felt like he was in a trance, just standing there, baffled by the beautiful enactment that was displayed in front of him.
"ahh Bakugo... I see you are also a man of culture..." said some random extra from his Hero course.
Bakugo glanced to the person who was standing next to him, and it was that weird perverted grape kid. He was standing there, shamelessly drooling at the window
"DON'T YOU DARE COMPARE YOURSELF TO ME!!" yelled Bakugo as he picked up the short kid by the collar. Small explosions started emitting explosions from his palm. However, his peripheral view noticed movement coming from the large display. The Yoga instructor was closing the curtains on the display, however, before she completely closed them, his eyes met a familiar set of E/C eyes....
Y/N's POV
"Inhale... Exhale.. Now we're transition to downward facing dog and we're going to hold this pose for a few seconds" explained the instructor in a rather soothing voice.
Lately, your mind has been scattered all over the place, ranging from king Explosion murder's harsh criticisms to meeting cute strangers in possible life-threatening situations. Finally, being here, relaxing, and clearing your mind was everything you needed. As you continued with the class, you felt your mind finally clearing and the emotional stress leaving your body.
" alright class, we're going to face the windows and balance into our warrior II"
As you turned toward the windows, you opened your eyes, and you couldn't believe the scene in front of you. There he was... Rock climbing super human aka Kachaan... holding some weird-looking purple kid by the collar and emitting... explosions? From his hand?
The Yoga instructor made her way towards the window, where she decided to close the curtains for the display.
"Kachaan?" you whispered to yourself as he turned towards your direction right on cue, it was almost as if he heard you. Your eyes met again, maintaining eye contact just like last week at the rock climbing club. It was so difficult to maintain eye contact with such piercing red eyes...so intimidating... and so You felt your balance fail you and you quickly released the pose.
You rolled your yoga and ran outside in the hopes you could catch up to the blonde teen. As you ran through the front door, you frantically looked in all directions. Finally, at a distance, you recognized the very unique spikey blond hair, running away from where you were. You ran after him, averting people every so often.
"WAITTT!! UGH! WAIT KACHAAN!" you yelled at the blonde teenager, but it was too late, you had lost him already. You stood there, hunched over, with your hands holding on to your knees, trying to catch your breath, defeated.
A/N everybody stay fucking calm!!! It's happening you all! Also don't you guys think its so cute how Bakugo and Y/N keep embarrassing themselves Infront of each other! Sooo cute <3 Don't be ghosts yall and feedback is always appreciated!
