Fallen Petals and Stolen Kisses (A hanahaki Story)

Healing takes time

It didn't take long for me to be able to leave recover girls room.

My new... Well, I'm not sure what we are. Shinsou and Monoma have been looking out for me. I don't think I've been alone since the incident.

Aizawa has been watching me and the others like a hawk. He's watched Midoriya too, who when Aizawa isn't looking glares at me. I get why. Honestly if I Sero, Aizawa, Shinsou, and Monoma hadn't constantly been at my side, I'm sure he would've killed me.

Maybe I'm exaggerating.

I feel better than ever, And not just physically. Besides the guilt that eats at me, Ive been... Well... Happy.

I still get nervous talking to Shinsou and Monoma when Midoriya is around. Okay whenever that boy is around, I get nervous. Terrified he'd do something.

Rumors had spread about everything. With my permission, my friends had told the class a very brief summary of what happened without naming names. Most of the Bakusquad has been ignoring me besides a muttered apology here and there. Bakugo though, Came up to me early this morning before class. Sero was about to stop him, but I shook my head. Sero looked concerned but agreed, and stepped away so we could talk.

"Pikachu." He had said hands in his pockets. He looked around nervously, his posture just slightly softer than his usual aggressive stance.

"Bakugo." I said back, thoroughly confused and anxious to get back to the boys I loved and Sero. There's a long pause and I'm about to leave when Bakugo speaks again.

"You... You good? Insomniac told us what happened. Fuck, who the hell had the audacity to fucking threaten you?" He responds. His voice shifting from a nervous curiosity to frustration.

"I'm... I'm good. And it doesn't matter." I rub the back of my neck nervously. Bakugo lets out a long exasperated sigh.

"Course it fucking matters. Dunno if you fucking think so but I consider us... You're not an Extra to me. I know I've done and said stupid shit. God knows I'm an asshole and I'm sorry for peer pressuring you to drink. It's no fucking excuse but it's how I was raised."

"Its fine. I forgive you."

"Im not asking forgiveness."

"Then why are you here? Apologizing."

"I want to start over. I don't expect you too and I certainly don't want you to say you fucking forgive me. I just want to be a better... Friend. I guess. You good with that?"

"Just you?"

"Just me. Those extras haven't mentioned any attempt to thoroughly apologize to you. Honestly, Besides Kirishima being hot I dont know why I hang out with them. Specially since you and Sero are gone from the group."

"Are you just saying that?" I say laughing.

"No."

"Then yeah. Let's start over." I look over to an anxious Sero watching the exchange and give him a big smile. He nods back and with a small smile, Gives me a thumbs up. I put my hand out to shake Bakugo's hand. "Hi, my name is Denki Kaminari! Let's be friends."

"This is stupid." Despite his words he takes my hand and although tiny and cocky he smiles at me. "I'm Katsuki Bakugo."

My grin is so big that Bakugo can't help but laugh.

Maybe life can be good after all.

Okay so it's been a while... Hi!

I haven't had any ideas, but I finally got something down although it's kind of short. If you read my other story too, I'm working on updating it as soon as this is posted.

-Love Saturn.
