I sit in class and twirl my pen around on my hand, I still hadn't spoken to anyone since yesterday before I left so I was just trying not to look awkward. I could tell everyone was staring at me. Suddenly Todoroki walks through the door looking beat up and I immediately run over.
"Todoroki are you okay??? What happened?" I ask worriedly as I grab his face in my hands and turn it as I look over his injuries. "I uhh- got in a fight and now I have detention this afternoon." He states awkwardly. I feel my expression shift into a scowl, "Did Bakugo do this?" I ask angrily as he nods his head slightly. "I can't believe he would beat you up like that what a fucking asshole." I say as I grow angrier and angrier by the second.
My anger then vanishes when I see Bakugo walk into the classroom with bruises all down his jaw and neck paired with a black eye and a broken nose. Holy shit. My jaw drops as I look at him walk past me, looking almost depressed before he takes a seat in his chair. I then watch as Sero and Kami poke fun at him while he just sits and takes it.
I watch as a bit of his pride and self confidence breaks with every comment they make and I find myself feeling almost sorry for him. Almost. He wouldn't appreciate me pitying him back when we were friends so I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate it now. I walk over to my seat and sit down just before Aizawa walks in and starts today's lesson.
After the lesson ends I pack up my things and head out of the classroom to lunch where I sit with Iida, Ochaco, Midoriya and Todoroki. I place my tray in the seat next to Todoroki's and he asks me about my day and how my lunch with Fatgum went, just creating some small talk between us.
I turn and see Bakugo walking behind us and only then do I notice how his eyes look dark and have visible bags beneath them, how he isn't carrying himself with the confidence he usually does and how he now looks like he's lost all confidence in himself.
He makes eye contact with me for a split second before looking away. Halfway through lunch I leave the lunch table to go for a walk outside to clear my head when I run into Shinso again, he decides to come with me after I give him an invitation and we walk together outside while talking about different things like what general studies is like and different pros and their jobs.
"What the fuck are you doing weirdo?" I hear from behind me and turn to see Bakugo glaring at Shinso, I sigh and grab Shinso's hand to guide him away from the hothead. "None of your business Bakugo. Go back to the table." I reply without looking at him. Shinso looks between us, confused, while continuing to follow me. "Aint he your friend?" He asks me lowly as we walk. "Not anymore." I state.

The rest of my day was spent trying to avoid Bakugo at every cost. If he was walking towards me, I was going towards Midoriya. If he was in the same hallway as me, I was taking a different route. If he was trying to shout out to me, the volume of my headphones were too loud.
I finally made it back to my dorm and felt my eyes water as I threw my bag next to the door and went to get changed. I couldn't figure out why I was being so emotional since I was never one to care too much but now it seemed that every time I had to see Bakugo, I had to resist the urge to cry. Without even realising, I had thrown on his shirt that he gave me the first time I went to his house.
I walked down to the common room and beelined to the freezer pulling out a large tub of caramel Ice cream and grabbed a spoon from the drawer before going back up to my room to sob and eat ice cream. All of this was really unlike me but I decided it was best to let it all out instead of bottling shit up. So I cried and cried for hours before there was a knock at my door.
I stood up and walked to the door, mascara streaks covering my cheeks and the ice cream tub in my hand. I opened the door and slammed it shut immediately. I ran to my mini freezer putting the ice cream away and washed my face in the sink quickly to remove any trace of makeup before sprinting back to the door and opening it to reveal Bakugo.
After a minute of eye contact he still hadn't said anything so I raised an eyebrow as a sign for him to talk. He just groaned, "...You were right... About what you said." He finally speaks to which I look at him quizzically. "...was that you... apologising?" I ask confused as to what he was trying to achieve. He nods and I scowl before going to close the door in his face again.
He stops it with his hand and looks at me. "You were right okay?? I'm an asshole and I treat everyone around me like shit and you shouldn't have to deal with that... I'm asking if you would please deal with that and help me be better."
I watched as he sinks down onto his knees in the hallway. "I promise I'll treat everyone nicely, I'll treat everyone as an equal and I'll even learn their names! Just please, please don't leave me." He says as he puts his hands together, looking up at me. "...I-I'm sorry- I'm sorry. okay???? I just can't do this without you anymore. You mean everything to me and I have no idea why I snapped and said all those shitty things." His voice breaking as he begs for my forgiveness.
I stand there and look at him for a couple of seconds before I speak, "get up." I say before turning and walking into my room, him following. I sit down on the edge of my bed, unsure what to say to him right now.
"I'm sorry too." I finally say as he turns to me confused. "I wasn't there for you last night and you probably really needed me" I say as I turn to him. "What i'm not sorry for, however, is what I said to you. I meant it. What you said to me really hurt Bakugo and you didnt even seem to care up until now. So I cant forgive you yet. Not until after you prove to me that you're really sorry." I say before standing.
"You mean a lot to me, you are my best friend and even though you won't admit it, I know im your best friend. But you seriously cant expect me to act as if nothing happened and expect me to forgive and forget when you looked at me the same way you look at villains. You told me you didn't care about me and then acted as if it didnt affect you at all."
He nods slowly before carefully asking, "how do I prove I'm sorry?... I mean, I have a hard enough time apologising let alone having to show I'm sorry." I sigh, "actions speak louder than words." Is all I say before Bakugo stands up and leaves, hugging me as he goes.

I furrow my eyebrows in confusion before moving towards my front door. I open the door and look down, in front of me sat a beautiful bouquet of flowers. It had to have been expensive since it was over 100 different flowers and next to it was a basket that had a bunny plushie with all of my favourite snacks and chocolates.
