Smoke and Embers | Bakugo x reader fanfic

Fix It

If my eyes weren't playing tricks on me, it seemed as though Bakugo inched closer.

I was basically tasting his breath on my lips, but he stayed as if he was waiting for me to close the gap.

Instead, I turned my head away and let out an uncomfortable laugh, "let'sss not talk about it?"

Bakugo got up and released an aggravated "tsk" out of embarrassment due to my rejection.

"If you don't want to talk about it, you shouldn't have done it in the first place!" he growled, leaning his shoulder against the wall.

"It was just a diversion! Keep it in your pants!" I say nonchalantly.

"Just a diversion, my ass! You basically swallowed my tongue," He said sharply, anger lingering in his undertone.

"How dare you! For your information, I had a plan! Until you completely took me over! Consent is still a thing, you know." I muster anything I can use to defend myself.

"You're a fucking Hypocrite! You kissed me first! I just wanted some context, so I'm not stuck here over-thinking like a fucking idiot!" Bakugo yells at me, more aggravated than I thought.

I walk towards him.

He stands his ground with a pissed look on his face.

Equally as pissed at his prying, I shoved him into the wall behind him.

I used my quirk, making a step to be at eye-level with the man in front of me.

I was trying to think what to say, but no words seemed to come to mind.

We just end up staring at one another again.

Bakugo tried to stay pissed, but as his ears turned a shade of red, he angrily rubbed his temples with his hands.

This caused him to drop his expression for a second and then get even angrier.

"Ugh! This is what I mean," he growled.

"If you want to say something, just fucking say it!" Bakugo says, still glaring into my eyes.

A pit forms in my stomach.

I can feel my confidence start to drop.

My qurik pops causing a tiny force below my feet, it didn't effect Bakugo though.

I catch my fall and brush it off with a scoff. "Wouldn't you like to know," I say, still trying to avoid the answer.

This all feels way too fast.

"Why are you being such a coward right now? It's pathetic!" he argues.

"Oh my god, Bakugo! Give it a rest! I'm out of here," I say, about to grab my stuff.

"we're not done yet." He snarls.

"I'm not fighting you anymore, Bakugo; you've pissed me off, prying about a stupid kiss like a raging virgin!" I spat.

I barely had time to brace myself before a huge blast at me, forcing me to dive to the side. The force rattled my bones, but I gritted my teeth, refusing to let him see any weakness.

I pushed back with a wave of liquid, turning the ground beneath him into a slick puddle to throw off his footing, but he was ready, vaulting over it with a scowl.

"You've pissed me off!" he sneered, unleashing a barrage of explosions that lit up the room, each one coming faster than the last. He was ruthless, relentless, and it was all I could do to keep up, weaving between blasts and throwing out counters when I could.
