"Lover"

Yumis POV:

Eijro huh. I've heard that name so many times but I just can't seem to picture a face.

It's the next day, Thursday to be exact. My favourite day of the week, not too close the the weekend, not too far from the weekend, just Thursday. I hop out the car and start walking towards the building. Waving hello to any classmates that walk past. I know they only talk to me because dynamight is my dad. Even the teachers give me extra attention because they find him attractive. But Hari is different, shes spoken to me everyday before she found out who my dad was. That's why I trust her the most.

"Hey Mimi! Over here." Hari yells from across the classroom. I sit down and smile as the teacher starts our lesson.

"Hari do you know a superhero called Eijro?" Hari looked down at me with a annoyed expression on her face.

"Isn't he that hero with the red hair?" She says tiredly taking a bite out of her Milky Way bar. I suddenly stop in place as my mind retreats to where I've seen a red headed hero. "Oh yeah!" Hari stops walking as she notices I've paused in place.

"I've said that every time you've asked me! If your so interested in him we should search him up. Let's go to the park." Hari goes ahead and drags me by my wrist, snapping me out my trance. She brings us to the same bench we sat on the previous day. As we get comfortable on the familiar wood planks I pull out my brand new phone, searching for information. But then I pause again. What should I search?

"What should I search? Just like- "red headed hero" or something? There must be millions though.." Hari rolls her eyes at my question, then snatches my phone out my hand to type something into the chat. I glance over to what she's written and raise my eyebrow, snatching back my phone.

"That one right there." She says pointing her baby blue nail to the last suggestion on the screen.

I click on "𝙍𝙚𝙙 𝙍𝙞𝙤𝙩 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬" and turn my phone horizontally so both of us could see the screen better. Is it him? Normally hero's don't say their real names so how could I know if it's him or not? A muscular guy with his chest bare appears on the set. He seemed nice, confident, kinda pretty too in all honesty.

So this is the guy my dad had a crush on? Did he know? As we get deeper into the interview video he starts answering the questions given to him by the interviewer, talking about how he became a hero and what he does during his free time off. The host throws a question at him which seems to throw him off completely, but you could only see his slight panic at the question if you look closer at his body language.

"𝙎𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙤'𝙨 𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙤𝙡𝙫𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚? 𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚!"

How coincidental.

The host continues to push for his response, even going as far as rising the microphone up to his face.

"I-I'm not in a relationship." He says. Anyone with sense could sense how awkward he felt in that seat. Laughing off the question.

He continues. "People love to date hero's but when it comes to me I guess I'm the anomaly!" Anomaly. Anomaly he states. Who in the world wouldn't grab the option to have a relationship with him? I feel a tap on my shoulder making me look up.

"I gotta get home now. My mums asking where I am and you know how paranoid she gets." I put my phone away back into my pocket and stand up. Immediately hugging her by the neck before she leaves.

"I'll make sure to find out more about Mr Cherry top when I get home. Don't discover anything exciting without me." We both stare at each other before breaking out into a fit of laughter, gaining attention from the old lady and her black maltipoo behind the park fence. I nod with a smile then pick up her bag, shoving it in between her arms which made her black curls with streaks of gold and blue fly for a moment.

The streaks simulate to her quirk, which is super duper cool. She can control the weather with her mind if she has a good mindset. You can imagine if she lost control of her emotions.

A tornado.

"Hurry up then. Your mums scary when she gets mad!" We quickly part ways, and I buzz myself into my house. Greeting my dad as normal before taking off my shoes.

"Daddy?" I shout out as I walk down the hall into our conjoined living room and kitchen.

"Yes honey?" He said calmly, twisting his head in my direction. He was sat on one of our kitchen stools, gulping down a mug of black coffee. I smiled at his golden messy bed hair which was illuminated by the kitchen lights.

"You know...Eijro." I can sense the tension the name creates in his body the way he clenches his jaw and grip on the allmight mug.

"C-Could you tell me what he's like..? Cause he seems like a nice person and I-" My question seemed to catch him off guard since the way he raised both of his sharp eyebrows. He cut me off.

"Yumi. You said you'd stop nagging me about this." He stated sternly. And he's right. I did promise to stop asking questions but I can't help it.

"I know!! But I wanna know more about him. I even looked him up." Well, I didn't really look him up but whatever. I walk up to him and squeeze his bicep as he carefully places his drink on the counter.

"You haven't been in a relationship since mum...maybe it's time you find someone?"

"Hey- Hey. Hey!!" I curse myself for my curiosity.

"When will you stop pestering me about my love life?" He scolded, voice gradually raising. I wince at the loud words yelled into my ears pouting, vision becoming blurry from the building up of tears. Releasing my soft grip from his arms I hear a low sigh escape from his lips.

"Sorry." He quietly whispers to me after seeing my eyes tear up. He brings me into a hug and begins to rub circles into my back.

"Sorry for making you sad honey, but sometimes I just don't like to think of the old memories. They make me sad..and frustrated." I pull my face away sniffing.

"Well I'll find a way to make you feel not sad dad, we'll both find true love...I promise." He smiles wiping off the lingering tears on my cheeks.

"Us both? Maybe only me this time. Your still too young, and I don't want any boys in my house." I roll my eyes and let out a over enthusiastic fake yawn, making him laugh.

"Blah, blah. I don't want any stupid boys!!..well- maybe just this one boy. But-"

"Who? Nu-uh Yumi. Who's this guy?!" He said suddenly turning serious again. Shoot. I've said too much. I freeze in place and think about my next words again as he glares at me.

"Forget I said that daddy. I'll focus on you and your new friend."

"Which new friend? All I need is you, Yumi Bakugou. Daughter of Bakugou Katsuki, a famous pro-hero "cable of love."" I smiled at his use of words, turning towards the stairs.

"Alright lover man."
