Connection (Bakugo x FemReader / Kirishima x FemReader)

Chapter 18: Collecting

'You know...this explains that time in the cafeteria I was able to make those random clones of myself. I was thinking about how cool it would be to have backup singers...jesus, what the hell is this Quirk...Am I supposed to just forget about my original Quirk? Is it even an original Quirk? What if it was just part of this "Gifted" Quirk and the Quirk Doctor had no idea. What if he did know, and just didn't tell me for some reason?  I don't even know how to control this Quirk, what if I fuck it up and become more of a burden to everyone I love...

I snap out of my thoughts and realize I walked farther than what I anticipated. 

'Oh well. I'll just turn back now.' 

I start heading back to Bakugo's house, keeping my mind off those previous thoughts by thinking about something different. 

'They both kissed me...they both like me?! I can't imagine why, I'm pretty annoying...but I can't choose between them, they're both my best friends...Bakugo's a stubborn asshole, but he's caring and protective of me when needed....Kirishima is so kind and sweet, he always knows what to say...why would they even scream at each other about this, it's so dumb-'

Suddenly, I bump into someone. I look up and see the two boys that were just occupying my mind. I cross my arms and look up at them. "Well here they are." 

"Shut it, Jigglypuff. We're going back to my house, now." Bakugo crosses his arms too. 

I scoff and look away. "That's exactly where I was going. For a few minutes."

Kirishima's posture drops. "Y/N, what do you mean?" 

"My mom is gone on her tour, and I have no idea where Ami is. I have to be home to watch the house. I may have pissed Mom off before she left, but I do still want to respect her wishes."  I go past him and walk by them both, neither of them knowing what to do. 

"H-hey, wait up!" Kirishima walks faster and walks with me, Bakugo following behind. "We need to talk to you-"

"About how both of you guys kissed me and started yelling about it after I went through that traumatic event last night? Yeah, sure." I roll my eyes and walk into Bakugo's house. 

"Stop walking away from us, Y/N." Bakugo sternly says. My body tenses and stops due to hearing my actual name come out of his mouth. 

"You just said-"

"Yeah, I did." He walks up to me, but not too close. "Listen up. We both fucked up, we get it. But we both care about you, and you definitely don't need to pick one of us anytime soon. You have a lot going on-"

"And we just want you to be happy. No matter what. We'll always be your friends no matter what." Kirishima cuts him off, receiving a glare from the explosion boy. 

I smile softly. "I appreciate that. Thanks, guys..." They both walk up to me and wrap me in their embrace. Tears start to form in my eyes, even though I have no idea why. Maybe because I was so overwhelmed. 

Well, still am.

"Guys, what do I do about my Quirk?" I ask them. Bakugo looks down at me and wipes my tears away. 

"We'll go talk to Aizawa-sensei, he'll help us out" He assures me. 

"It'll be okay. If he doesn't know, then All Might must know! We can ask at school Monday" Kirishima smiles. I smile back at both of them. 

"Okay.." 

(TIME SKIP TO MONDAY) 

"Aizawa-sensei, we need to speak with you" I walk into homeroom. Luckily, nobody was there except Kiri, Bakugo, and our teacher. 

He looks at us with concern as we update him on what my mother told me. The Quirk, my father, the shady guy who gave him this Quirk, everything. 

He sighs. "Although I do know about this, it is something that All Might needs to tell you." 

"What? Why can't you?!" I raise my eyebrow up at him. 

"Just trust me. Go speak to him." He looks at the two boys behind me. "Just her." 

"You can't tell me not to go with her-" Bakugo tries to fight it, but Kirishima holds him back. 

"Totally understandable, we'll walk her to see All Might then come right back to class!" He pulls Bakugo and I out of the door and we start walking down the hall.  

"Bullshit! We need to be there for her!!" Bakugo screams. I stop walking and raise my eyebrow at him. 

"You don't think I can handle this myself?"

He immediately blushes. "N-no, I just don't want you to go through this alone and you know- Shut up!!" 

I chuckle and keep walking. The tension between the both of them is still present, but it's not as prominent. I can tell they're glaring at each other, which starts to piss me off. I sigh and walk ahead of them, annoyed that they are trying to compete over being there for me when right now, all I need is support. We stop in front of All Might's door. I take a deep breath and turn back to the two boys. 

"I'll be back out soon. Don't wait-" 

"We're gonna wait" They both say at the same time sternly. I look at them shocked then shrug and turn towards All Might's office. I take a deep breath once again and knock on his door. 

"UH...one second!" I hear Midoriya's voice. Weird. A minute goes by and then I hear All Might call for me to enter. I open the door and step in. 

"Sorry...did I interrupt something?" I question them, giving a weird look. 

"NO! No, you're good! I can leave..." Midoriya goes to stand up. All Might gives him a look, making Midoriya sit back down. 

"I'm pretty sure I know what this is about..." He looks over at me and gestures at the seat next to him.  I sit next to him and cross my legs. "Your Quirk?"

"Well, yeah. But why is he here?" I look at Izuku. "No offense, Izuku. Just...thought I wouldn't be talking about it with you here too..." 

"None taken!" He looks over at All Might. "Why did you keep me here, sir?"

All Might sighs and looks down. His sudden change in tone sends shivers down my back, making me expect the worse. He looks back up at the both of us and takes a deep breath. 

"Both of your Quirks have history..."

Hi guys! 

I'm so sorry for the lack of updating. A lot of family stuff came up, along with me getting Covid from my trip and starting college again, it's been rough. 

Thanks for being so patient with me :) I'll try to update as soon as possible...
