Breaking Ground Zero (Bakugou x Reader)

FINAL CHAPTER 8

As much as Y/n wanted to tell Ochako that she had finally get together with Bakugou, she still wasn't sure what they were. Plus, she knew he'd probably want to keep it a secret anyways. She liked to imagine they were dating, but it didn't seem that way at school the following week.

It had only been the weekend since they had seen each other, but Y/n felt like they hadn't made any progress. The only difference was when she tried to talk to Bakugou now he didn't really yell at her, only scoffed or was silent with a glare on his face. It was pretty usual for him, but she thought maybe he'd act more different towards her now- but maybe he wasn't because he was trying to keep them under wraps. She had no idea what to think.

As much as Bakugou kept his cool though, Ochako had immediately spotted the giant mark on Y/n's neck- a failed attempt at trying to hide her Katsuki Trademarked Bite with makeup. When Ochako prodded her for details, Y/n didn't let anything loose- even staying silent once Ochako suggested it was from Bakugou. It turned out that was the wrong move as Ochako immediately realized it had been from Bakugou, smirking at Y/n devilishly. She asked Ochako to stay quiet for now, but all Y/n could do was hope no one else connected the dots.

Meanwhile, Bakugou was having his own slew of problems as some of the boys had seen the scratch marks on his back as they changed into their training uniforms. Kirishima was quick to ask about if he had gotten into a fight, but all Bakugou responded was 'fuck off.' Denki suggested it was from a girl to which Bakugou screamed at him- but the blatant blush on his face and his sudden anger outburst pointed in that direction.

The boys wouldn't leave Katsuki alone as they prodded who it could have been. Bakugou turned them out best he could, not wanting to give it away. He wanted to keep his relationship with Y/n a secret the best he could, not wanting to shame her with the title of being his girlfriend. Bakugou knew Y/n was too good for him, but he would never admit that. He just had to keep them a secret. Though, Bakugou's chance was ruined at lunch the following day.

Y/n was headed to her lunch table when another 1-B extra had stopped her- luckily not the guy from Karaoke night.

"Hey Y/n... I was wondering if you'd want to go out sometime...?" The boy asked nervously, scratching the back of his head as she stood there, lunch tray in hand. Y/n pondered how to respond as she was flabbergasted at someone asking her out but also wondering how to reject him without revealing she was already with Bakugou.

"....Sorry, I... uhm.. I don't think so...," she smiled sadly as she turned to head to her table now. She felt bad for rejecting this kid, but what could she do? Katsuki had her heart and there was nothing that extra could do.

Y/n's tray dropped to the floor as the extra grabbed her arm harshly to stop her from leaving. The clatter echoed in the room as people stopped talking, observing the sudden loud noise. Y/n felt her face flush as she realized they were now the center of attention, but she lost that color as she turned to see the extras face now.

"Really?? You're gonna deny me like that? What a stuck up bitch you are!" He said, not so quietly, and angry look on his face and a cocky glare in his eyes. Y/n had the feeling he knew she wouldn't talk back or make a scene, so she just had to stay there and take what he had to say, no matter how harmful. Y/n grabbed his wrist as she tried to make him let go, but his grip only tightened as she winced in pain now.

"Seriously, what a cunt! You let xxxx climb all over you at Karaoke, but I guess my dick isn't good enough for you, is that it? Or are you just picky about who you fuck?" Y/n's blood red cold as his words got harsher and harsher. The only thing she could do was hope no one could hear him, but she knew that wasn't the case.

"What a fuckin-," the extra was caught off guard as a blazing fist flew through his face, throwing his harshly to the ground as he let Y/n's wrist go. She yelped in surprise before she felt warm hands pull her into a strong chest, a familiar smell making her feel instantly better.

"OI! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING YOU FUCKIN EXTRA???" Bakugou screamed at the kid, now holding his marked face as he sat on the ground in pain. Bakugou held Y/n closely with one arm as he other was clenched tightly, almost drawing blood as his nails dug into his own skin.

"WHAT THE HELL! I WAS JUST-" the extra was caught off guard again as Bakugou stomped on the kid's foot, causing him to yelp out in pain. Y/n only flinched in Bakugou's arms as she turned into his chest now, gripping his uniform tightly as she didn't want to see the extra anymore. Bakugou recognized her scared demeanor and immediately became even more outraged.

"Oi-" Bakugou glared down at the kid now, scaring him shitless at his quiet rage- something out of the ordinary for Bakugou. "You better not fucking mess with my girlfriend you prick. Now back the fuck off before I permanently fuck up that ugly mug of yours," he crackled an explosion in his closed fist, not blinking once as he stared into the extras cowardly eyes.

As the extra got up and ran away, Bakugou turned his attention back to Y/n, resting his head on hers as he sighed. As Y/n started to mumble into him, he shushed her.

"Don't you dare apologize, you didn't do anything wrong. On the other hand, everyone fucking knows we're dating now...," Bakugou brought his spare hand up to cover his eyes, embarrassed as everyone in the cafeteria continued to stare at them. Y/n felt herself blush heavily as she gripped onto Bakugou tighter, not wanting to move. Bakugou just decided to take the initiative and get them out of their awkward position as fast as possible.

Katsuki moved back a bit as he bent down as picked Y/n up bridal style, carrying her out of the cafeteria. She could only stare at him with extremely embarrassed shock, knowing that wouldn't help their scene at all. While it was embarrassing, she was still thankful he got her out of there, now being alone on the stairwell.

Y/n's belly grumbled as he sat them down, seating Y/n a step below him between his stead legs, like he was still protecting her. Not that Y/n minded, of course. She was only keeping them a secret for Bakugou anyways..., and while they failed at doing so, hearing him call her his girlfriend made her so happy and solidified her understanding of their relationship.

"That fucker make you drop your lunch...," Bakugou grumbled to himself, reaching in his pocket to hand her an onigiri he had greaves for himself. Y/n smiled at him warmly as she ate it, resting into his chest, head turned up and looking at him upside down. Bakugou only turned to look away, a small blush on his face. Y/n giggled to herself, catching his attention.

"What's so funny, eh?" He said, but in a friendly matter. He felt his eyes stall on her now, the sunlight from the windows lighting up her eyes perfectly and making it seem as though she was shining.

"You called me your girlfriend!" She geeked out about happily, humming in content as she continued to monch on the riceball. Bakugou only let out a light chuckle, now bringing a hand to run through her hair.

"Well, that's what you are, isn't it?" Bakugou scoffed again, rolling his eyes at how cute she was.

"Yeah," Y/n said to herself, finally happy with the way they were. She hoped she could have stopped that moment with Katsuki in time, never wanting it to end. And surprisingly, Bakugou thought the same thing.
