"It's going to be okay Kiri, Bakugo is strong."

Mina says to Kirishima as she hugs him tight.

Class 1A had just gotten the news that Bakugo was kidnapped by the League of Villains and it crushed Kirishima. He didn't want to seem unmanly, so instead of breaking down in front of everyone, he did it in his room. Mina knew that Kirishima wasn't okay, so she went to comfort him immediately. When she opened the redhead's door, she was met with a broken Kirishima. She closed the door before sitting next to the other on his bed.

"But what if they do something to him?! He's only one person and there are many of them!"

Kirishima nervously yells as he looks over to Mina.

"I don't know what they will do, but heroes are out looking for him now. They will find him and he will be back with us in no time."

Mina tells the redhead as she rubs his back.

"I feel so useless...My boyfriend was kidnapped by villains and all I'm doing is crying about it! I'm so unmanly right now..."

Kirishima admits as he leans forward and hides his face in his hands.

"Kiri, we were told to stay at the dorms until Bakugo is found. There is nothing you can do. Also, you're not unmanly because you're showing feelings. It takes a real man to do so."

Mina says with a comforting smile as the redhead meets her gaze.

"Thanks, Mina, I need to hear that."

Kirishima says with a weak smile in return.

"I'm going to get you some water and melatonin so you can fall asleep faster. I can tell you're going to need it."

Mina tells the other as she gets up and walks over to the door.

"That would be great, thanks again."

Kirishima sighs as he stands up.

"It's no problem. Why don't you get ready for bed while I'm gone?"

Mina smiles as she opens the door.

"I will."

"Good, I'll be back in 10."

Mina says as she leaves the room.

Kirishima stands still for a moment. He looks around the room and he can't find any comfort in it. To him, the room felt empty. Memories of him and Bakugo flood through his head as he continues to stand still. He needed to feel like his boyfriend was there with him. He left his room and went next door to Bakugo's. He walks in and smiles.

"It still smells like him..."

Kirishima says to himself as he turns the desk lamp on.

He walks over to the bed before quickly laying out on it. As much as the redhead wants his mind to stop, it doesn't. Bakugo is the only thing he can think of and it just brings him down more. Soon, Mina is walking in the door with her hands full.

"Kiri, are you sure you want to sleep here?"

Mina asks with concern as she sets down everything on the desk.

"Yes."

Kirishima says as he continues to stare at the ceiling.

"Ok then. I brought you the stuff and I also got you dinner since you haven't eaten in a while."

Mina says as she grabs the plate.

"I'm not hungry."

The redhead blatantly says.

"But you're always hungry. I got you pizza~"

Mina sings as she continues to try to get the other to eat.

"Mina, I'm not hungry."

Kirishima says again.

Mina signs as she sets the plate back down. She picks up the two melatonin pills instead along with the cup of water.

"I'll leave it here if you change your mind."

She whispers as she passes over what she has in her hands.

Kirishima sits up and takes the pills before popping them in his mouth and washing them down with the water. He sets the water down behind him before lying back down.

"Anything else you need?"

Mina asks.

"No, thanks though."

Kirishima sighs.

Mina walks over to the lamp and turns it off.

"Don't turn it off."

Kirishima tells her.

"Why? You're going to sleep."

Mina asks with confusion.

"I just want to leave it on."

The redhead whispers.

Mina turns the light back on and doesn't ask any more questions. She leaves the room so the redhead can sleep. Once the room is empty again, Kirishima stands back up and walks out on the balcony. He is met with a cool breeze and bright stars. He rests his arms on the balcony railing as he looks up at the sky.

"Please come home soon Katsuki...I need you. If you're not home by tomorrow, I'm going to bring you back myself. Please be okay..."

Kirishima thinks as he listens to the sounds of the quiet night.

"I'll leave a light on for you if that helps you find your way. I know it's stupid, but it makes me feel like I'm actually doing something...Shit, why couldn't they have taken me instead of you?! Why wasn't I there to save you?! I can't lose another person to villains...I need you home..."

Kirishima's mind continues to spiral. As the same thoughts continue to replay over and over, he realizes they will only end when he sleeps. He sighs in defeat as he makes his way back inside the dorms. He closes the door behind him before lying back in bed. He pulls the covers over him as he feels the melatonin starting to take effect. The light shines throughout the room. Kirishima closes his eyes with a tear running down his cheek.

"I promise when you're back I'll keep you safe. Just follow the light back to me..."

I got my inspiration for this from the song "Leave A Light On" by Tom Walker. The song is at the beginning if you have never heard it. Also, this was the first time I wrote only angst, so I hope it was somewhat decent😅.
