"Just Roommates"

| 8 | A better reaction

Bakugou pov:

After Kirishima yelled at me, he stormed off.
I didn't expect him to be mad at me.
It's not nice when people you love shout at you.
I don't care if old hag shouts at me but.. Shitty hair?
Everyone pitied me and he just yelled at me.
I dont want him to be mad at me.
He was crying too.
This is all my fault if I-

"Bakugou..?"
Shit!
It's Icyhot.
Mother fucker..
"What do you want extra?"
I growl at him.
"Well Kirishima was yelling at you and you're crying so I came over to see if you were ok"
He looks down at me.
Eyes full of pity.
And for once in my life.
Being looked at with pity feels good.
I wish Kirishima looked at me like he did, cared about me like he did.
It's not fair.
Wait?
Did he say I was crying.
I raise a hand to my cheek and sure enough it is wet.
I wipe my face of frantically with my sleeve.
"I'm not crying dumbass!"
I snap back at him.
"Do you wanna watch a movie tonight? To get your mind off it.. you can choose?"
He cajoled.
I think about for a moment.
*sniff*
"Fine..But I get to choose the snacks too"
He gives me a slight smile and starts to leave.
I follow after.
"Dont fucking walk ahead of me shitty ass"
I take the lead and he chuckles and follows me.
We go to the kitchen first and have a look to see if we can find any food.
Uraraka is in the kitchen with Deku.
Deku immediately averts his eyes to me.
"Kacchan!! I'm so sorry Kirishima-kun found out!"
I roll my eyes.
"Me too"
I snap.
Half and Half decides to chime in.
"Found out what?"
He's looking at Deku now.
Deku looking at me.
Me looking at Icyhot.
I avert my gaze to Deku.
He stammers,
"Uh uh um Kacchan..?"
I growl.
"Oh just bloody get it over with"
I listen as Deku explains the story.
Then remember Uraraka is there.
I stop him.
"Wait! Pink cheeks go away"
I growl at her.
"Bakugou-kun I already know what happened"
She looks ashamed and looks down.
"WHAT??"
My eyes shoot to Deku who is chuckling and has fear in his eyes.
"I'm sorry Kacchan!! It's just.. she's my bestfriend"
"Ugh!! I don't care anymore, get on with it."
I go to storm out when Icyhot grabs my hand.
"stay please"
He says calmly.
I bare my teeth at him but listen.
After the whole story was explained I was waiting for him to yell at me because I didn't tell him.
"I'm sorry Bakugou"
He looks at me genuinely.
I blink a few times.
"What? The hell are you sorry for?!"
I ask, still expecting a shout from him.
"Because that happened to you, I think you're brave and talented to have sent people your location in such a short time. It's so amazing how you ran away for that long, I'm still terribly sorry"
I want to cry.
People have never fucking said anything near that to me before and I can't help but think how Kirishima yelled at me and he softly apologised.
"Do you still wanna watch a movie to get your mind off of it?"
He asks.
I smile at him challenging.
Uraraka looks at me and smiles.
"You can have this"
She hops on over to the freezer and pulls out a pack of mochi. She skips back and hands Icyhot the packet.
Deku smiles at her all lovingly.
Gross!
"Thank you Uraraka"
He smiles at her.
He then grabs my hand with his warm hand and we go up to our dorm. I would pull my hand away from his if it wasn't his warm one. Holy fuck it feels good.
I love warm things.
He hands me the mochi box and we hop onto the top bunk of our bunk bed. We sit down under the covers and I decide to play a movie called "Goosebumps".
It's all about scary shit apparently.
I open the packet and hand him a mochi, he melts his a tiny bit so it's not rock hard.
I can't bite into mine because the icecream isn't melted in the slightest.
I hand it to him and he looks baffled.
"Warm it up or whatever"
I wait for him to do so.
He hands it back and smiles at me.
I stop myself from staring into his eyes.
I suddenly realise everything he's done for me and my heart rate decides to pick up.
I take my mind off of it by watching the movie.
I'm cold.
I grab his warm hand and he doesn't even flinch.
He just lets me.
As we watch the movie we get to the bit where the werewolf chases them down in the shop.
I don't like to admit it but may have been a small bit scared.
BUT IF I SAW IT IN REAL LIFE I WOULD BLAST IT TO HELL!!
I flinch at the scary scene.
He squeezes my hand comfortingly.
I try not to gasp at that.
Kirishima used to do this.
Before he would leave to go see Denki or Sero.
But Icyhot isn't Kirishima..
He's..
Softer.
Kirishima is literally hard all the time.
And that's not a metaphor.
I mean physically and emotionally.
By emotionally I mean the whole manly situation.
He's usually a sunshine.
I remember his face when he yelled at me.
I feel like I'm not gonna get over this very soon.
