Over the next few days, you practically lived with Katsuki. He would cook for you, take care of your injuries and sometimes even stay over.

You walked down the stairs that day. Katsuki was in the kitchen, cooking something for you as usual. "Katsu...." You wrapped your arms around his waist from behind.

"Hmm?"
"Stop cooking."
"No..." You inserted yourself between him and the counter, pushing him behind. "Katsu, you know I'm fine now right? You don't have to make anything for me."

"Shut up and move over Y/N." He grumbled but he didn't hate the way you were squeezed between his body and the countertop.

"Make me." You sneered. He placed his hands on both sides of your hips and lifted you up with ease, bringing you to the couch and tossing you on top of it. But before he could go back, you yanked his arm hard and he fell on top of you.

"Jesus, Y/N." You switched positions with him and crawled on top of his body. You leaned down and peppered gentle kisses on his neck. He took a sharp breath in when you got lower and you began kissing him harder, biting and sucking.

He groaned and tried to wrap an arm around your waist, but you stopped him and pinned both his arms to his sides. "N-wait. Wait- Y/N." You pulled away.

"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"Something's wrong."
"It's nothing."
"Do you not like not being in closed spaces? Out of control?"

He looked away. "I'm fine." He pushed you off of him and walked away. You sighed. What were you to him? What did he think of you? Were you just friends? Did he not like you? A million questions ran in your head.

That evening he came to your room. "Hey." He said
"Hi. Can we talk?"
"About what?"
"What-what are we doing?"
"What do you mean? You're injured and I'm taking care of you."
"No. I mean- What are we?"
".... Neighbours?"
"Katsuki..."
"I dont know!"

"Why did you kiss me then?"
"I just felt like it! I don't know."

You looked away. Maybe he didn't really like you. "Okay." You said. "I've got to go to Marlo's now so, see you later."

"But you're injured!"
"Yeah and I need money to take care of myself."
"I'll take care of you."
"Why? We're just neighbours."
"It's... A neighbourly thing to do."

You rolled your eyes. "Bye Katsu." You grabbed your keys and left.

Katsuki knew he was fucking up as he was fucking up. He knew exactly what you were asking but what was he supposed to say to you? That he had no idea how to control himself when you were around? That Bakugou Katsuki, the boy who hated the world, had feelings for you, that he liked you? That you were the first thing he thought about in the morning and the last thing he thought about before he went to bed? That when you were around, he couldn't tell right from wrong, that he couldn't concentrate on anything, that he couldn't take his eyes off of you? That he didn't want any other guy touching you, being near you, even glancing at you?

He sighed and threw himself on top of his mattress. But he just couldn't say those words to you. He just couldn't tell you how he was totally and utterly captivated by you, how you were basically his light. He was practically wrapped around your finger. But he couldn't say those words to you.

The next day, you and Bakugou went to school. Aizawa had announced that finals were coming up.

Shit. You were so not prepared. You had been missing school due to your injuries and Bakugou hadn't had the time to tutor you before.

You wanted him to teach you but you were too mad to ask him. You couldn't ask Momo either since she was sick. So you asked the next best person.

"Hey, Todoroki." You called out to him after class. "Do you mind tutoring me today? I missed a lot of work."

His eyes lit up. "Sure, Y/N. Would you like to head to my house right away?"

".....and that's it." He said. "Ugh" You groaned. "This is hard." You pouted.

He looked at your face. Your cheeks were rosy and you looked kinda....cute. He blushed and looked away.

Just then, Todoroki's sister walked in. "Shoto! You haven't had lunc-" she noticed you.

"Oh! I wasn't aware you had company!" She said. "Who's this? Your girlfriend?" She smirked, raising her eyebrows.
"N-no. It's nothing like that. This is Y/N. Y/N, this is my sister Fuyumi."
"It's nice to meet you!" You said.

Her eyes grew wide when she saw you. "Y-Y/N? You mean- L/N Y/N?"
"How did you know my last name?"
"O-Oh! It's nothing. I just heard it from Todoroki, that's all." She rambled.

"Okay..... If you insist." You thought it was fishy. "Anyway, Y/N! You should stay for dinner! We're having sushi."

You loved sushi but the thought of sharing dinner with Endeavor freaked you out. "No! I'll pass!" You said, a little too eagerly.

And with that, you said your goodbyes and left.

You went straight to Marlo's for your shift and returned home that night. You were beyond exhausted. It had been a long day. And to make it so much worse, it was pouring. Thankfully, you had an umbrella.

You were almost at your doorstep but- Katsuki. He was waiting outside all alone in the rain.

"Katsu!" You cried, running up to him. "What do you think you're doing? You'll get sick!" You covered him with your umbrella. "What is wrong with you?"

He said nothing. He just stared at you. "Y/N......." He said, his fire red eyes burning holes into you. You looked so pretty.

"I...I-I like you." He confessed. "You mean a lot to me. Y-You're so perfect. You're the only one I want."

You stared at him, awestruck. You didn't care that he was completely soaked. You wrapped your arms around his neck and crashed your lips into his. His eyes widened but he kissed back right away, pulling your body closer.

Your umbrella was long forgotten as it was whisked away in the storm.
