A Dragon Called Halfie

Part 36/ panic

Kirishima's eyelids burned as if he were on fire.
What was going on?
Where was he!?

He sat there in the silence when the events of the previous day slammed against him.

Master! Master had found him.
But... It was ok?
Yeah, because Bakugou had defended him.
He had saved him. Again.
But now master knew where he was. He could find him whenever he wanted to.

A wave of pain rolled across his body, and he fell back onto the bed.

"Red! Oh, thank god you're awake!"
It sounded like Bakugou had just returned from something.

"Bakugou- I think something is wrong."

"Yeah, no shit Sherlock! You passed out for a good 12 hours!"

His stomach curled in around it's self. Maybe he was hungry? No, that felt different... he just wanted to get away. He just wanted to hide and not be found. He just wanted to BE MOTHER FUCKING SAFE! Was that so hard to ask?!

He pushed that feeling down and tried to focus on literally anything else. But that was easier said than done, seeing as it was turing his stomach in knots, making him constantly aware of a danger that wasn't actually there. But it was. It was everywhere. It was all around him, and he COULDNT GET AWAY.

He flicked his eyes around the room, but nothing felt out of place. Then why was his brain still screaming that there was danger?

'Probably because you can never be safe! With all these people after you, did you really think you could get away? They are just waiting for you to make one wrong move. Then you'll be theirs forever. No more knights in red capes to save you now.' The panicking part of his brain told him.

He felt like he was forgetting something important, but his head hurt to much for him to try to remember.

"Hey, Shitty hair, can you hear me?" The bed dipped down next to Kirishima.

"Huh- what did you-"

"I asked if you were hungry."

"Oh." His brain felt like it was filled with cotton, and nothing was working.

"Jesus, you look awful -"

Bakugou's voice sounded muffled, though. But he could hear everything. Literally everything. The fire, bugs, birds, and even the sound of bakugo shifting his weight from one leg to the other.

His head pounded. There was too much noise. He could hear too much! What was he supposed to do?!

Everything felt wrong! Someone, please help!

Kirishima's hand gripped Bakugou's forearm and pulled him down to where kiri was collapsed. Bakugou stumbled at the sudden force, which gave Kirishima just enough to wrap around Bakugou like a koala.

"Scared" it came out as almost a whisper, and Bakugou doubted if he had even heard it. He lay perfectly still next to Kirishima.
"What?" he asked, trying to keep his voice level.

"You made the pain go away. You're safe. I want to be safe. Please. Please just let me be safe. I don't want you to leave me."
Bakugou could barely breathe. He felt warm.
Fuck! No! He had promised himself he would never let this happen to himself.

His heart was beating out of his chest, and he would never admit how good it had felt for Kirishima to say he actually wanted Bakugou. And the fact that his arms were wrapped around Bakugou's waist didn't help at all.

Still though, Kirishima had sounded sick. But not the normal kind of sick that he himself could deal with.
He needed someone who knew more about Kirishima and dragons than he did.
He needed Mina.

He tried to lift kiris arm so he could get up to no avail. His arm only tightened around him, and the next thing he knew, Kirishima was changing.

Part of his arms were covered in scales, and wings grew out of his back. His bare chest rumbled, and Bakugou couldn't tell what that sound was.

The huge, bat like wings wrapped Bakugou in heat. But instead of sweating, it was insanely comfortable.

'Maybe it wouldn't hurt for just a second,' he thought to himself. 'I'll never let anyone know, but if no one is here to see....' his thoughts trailed off, and he looked at Kirishima's sleeping face.

His crazy thoughts won over, and he leaned in and kissed Kirishima's forehead where he had placed his hand earlier that night.

This was dangerous...

Bakugou liked dangerous.
