...pretty late update (sorryyy) cause its the longest chapter yet~~

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bakugou was still dazed when he felt the cold temperature around his neck. He had been fighting the nomu when he heard the commotion from outside.

'He's really there??', Aizawa's voice had made his actions more urgent.

As a result, the first thing he saw after defeating the monster in a hurry was the scene of Nijirou curling up as he plunged down from above.

He didn't hesitate for a second, immediately launching forward and catching him right before he fell.

Now feeling the warmth on his chest, he didn't know how to react for a second, freezing as if stunned.

"Bakugou-kun..."

The voice broke through all his thoughts at once. Staring at the person in his arms, his mind went blank. Tightening his arms around the other, he hugged him closer to his body.

Setting Nijirou down after a long time, he grabbed the other's hands and quickly wrapped his hands around his face, gripping it gently but with desperation at the same time.

Finally gazing at those dark eyes after such a long time, Bakugou felt a lump in his throat.

"You...are you alright?", he asked after a long time, his voice a little hoarse. His eyes stared at the other intently and without blinking, as if afraid of missing out a single detail.

Hearing his question, Nijirou could only feel his tears fall uncontrollably, as if all his grievances finally had a chance to come out,

"Hngh..y-you came late-", he couldn't complain for long before he felt the other person hug him tightly, his hand caressing the dark hair tenderly.

"I'm sorry...", Bakugou hugged him close and whispered with clenched teeth. Hearing the unstoppable sniffles of the person in his arms, he felt like he couldn't bear it.

"Don't cry...it's ok now", he comforted in a low voice.

His eyes swept through Nijirou's hands as he was patting the other's back. Seeing the blood still dripping from his wrists incessantly, his brows scrunched together tightly. Gritting his teeth with force, he squeezed the other in his arms.

Seeing that Nijirou was starting to calm down, he pulled away a little and gazed into his watery eyes as he wiped his cheeks softly with his fingers.

After ensuring that he was comfortable, Bakugou took his hand and held it in between them.

"You...", he started, "-You didn't have to go to such extremes", he sighed.

"Why would you have to injure yourself again...?", his murmured with a sad expression.

Listening to his raspy voice Nijirou was a little guilty, trying to take his hand back to hide the wound, he spoke while avoiding the other's eyes.

"I-There was no other choice..."

"Haaaa", Bakugou sighed and lifted his face up to meet his eyes again,

"No matter where they put you, I would've come without doubt", he said seriously,

"Even if I had to blow this whole building up....I would come."

Listening to his sincere words, Nijirou's eyes widened in surprise, "Ah-", he reacted after a while, feeling his eyes that had just started to dry up, growing watery again.

"...yeah", he buried his head on the other's shoulder and rubbed against his neck slightly, "I know."

"That's good", Bakugou smiled a little at his actions and patted him on his head gently. Taking his hands again, he controlled his strength before using his quirk to melt of the remaining metal chains wrapped around his hands.
