(PAUSED) Changes (Suicidal Kirishima x Bakugo)

Friends?

Kirishima's POV

*BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEE-*

The alarm rang loudly, as my body slowly woke up and forced my arm to lift itself up and snooze the alarm. My phone must've switched off at some point, because my music alarm didn't go on.

"I was hoping to wake up to my music alarm, but whatever." I shrugged it off and hopped in the shower. My brain was so foggy, it was hard to think straight. Heck, I couldn't even remember what happened last night that much. But after finishing my shower and looking at the bathroom mirror, I saw a faded red mark on my cheek. I suddenly remembered what happened.

Oh yeah, my mom slapped me because I came home a little early. I just couldn't bring myself to face them again. Tears slowly fell down my cheeks as I curled myself into a ball on the bathroom floor, remembering what my mom said to me.

"Did you make any friends or even paid attention in class? You just can't seem to do anything right. There is no point even sending you to that school if your just going skip it and act like it's nothing. It's a waste of money. Be useful for once, and actually obey me, you useless brat."

Well, it isn't my fault! I'm just born with all muscle and no brains. I can't understand math sometimes, and it frustrates me. I want to become like my Dad, but it seems like I'm not even close. I can't even make friends, too because I'm too quiet or some shit like that. I didn't ask for this: my dad's death, my mom turning against me, me being alone, everything! I'm sick of my life, and I just wish for something different, something positive to happen in my life for once...

I snapped out of my thoughts and got ready for school, then headed downstairs to not see my mom...again. There wasn't any fruits, and there was barely any food in the kitchen, so I left to go to school hungry.

Once I arrived in the school and took a place at my desk, I realized that I was the first one, which was weird because I was always almost late and the class would be packed. Using the oppourtunity, I laid down my head around my arms and used the time to catch up on some sleep. After a few minutes, I heard someone enter the class. I lifted my head up slightly, and saw Bakugo walking into the classroom. He looked a little surprised to see me here before him, and we almost made eye contact, but I lowered my head to avoid it just in time. Just as I thought he would finally leave me alone, I saw his footsteps approach closer and closer, until it eventually stopped..right in front of my desk. I sighed and lifted my head up, looking up to see him looking at me with a slightly less angry face.

Bakugo sighed before clearing his throat. "Look, I'm sorry for lashing out on you. It's just that I had a lot of studying to do today and I was stressed from the number of assignments I had to do. But don't you dare tell anyone I said this to you, got it?" He scoffed and continued to walk down the rows to his seat.

"No, it's not your fault. I should've actually looked where I was going. You had every right to lash out on me. It's fine." He stopped in his tracks and turned to look at me with a stunned and confused face, as I gave him a warm smile. He stood like that for a few seconds, before shaking his head, and sitting back on his seat.

I didn't think much of his reaction and turned back to wait for class to start.

*During class*

Bakugo's POV

My mind couldn't get off on his reaction. The way he smiled at me, apologized as well, and just him being calm about all of this in general even though I was mean to him back then was something I've never seen before. His smile seemed genuine, but his eyes looked kinda sad for some reason. Maybe I'm overthinking it. I should be focusing on my work instead of analyzing his face.
