Control Your Reality: Katsuki Bakugo

Chapter 5

By the time the dorms were ready, Hitori had learned two things: she liked cake, and her favorite fruit was kiwi.

And that not being able to use her right hand drove her crazy. Bakugo watched her like a hawk and stopped her from using it whenever she tried. So she was grateful when she finally went to Recovery Girl's office and got healed a few days after Aizawa had come by. The last couple of weeks she spent with Bakugo's family were much easier afterward.

Hitori and Bakugo spent a lot of time working out together. He started getting up early and meeting her downstairs each morning. She would tell him about her dream, then they would exercise. She had done mostly body weight exercises growing up, so have weight machines to use was a lot of fun. Bakugo outlifted her in everything, but she had him beat in most of the body weight workouts.

Mitsuki started teaching Hitori more about cooking as well. She learned how to make curry, dumplings, and several other dishes that would be easy to do in the dorms. They baked a few more cakes as well.

Masaru spent a lot of time telling Hitori about different places he had been for work and adventures the family had taken. He seemed grateful to have someone else around who didn't argue all the time like Bakugo and Mitsuki did. And Hitori enjoyed hearing about other cities and foreign countries he had been to.

One of the most fun parts of the whole stay was when they all went to a sushi place with a conveyor belt. Bakugo convinced his mom to go the weekend of Hitori's birthday, but did so without telling her the occasion. One of the cakes they baked was the day of her birthday. He also bought her a Rubik's cube as a present.

When it was time to move in, Hitori was happier and healthier than she had ever been. She had gained some muscle and felt much stronger than she had at camp. She was even sleeping a little better. She still had dreams of memories every night, but she stayed asleep longer than she used to. It had been the best few weeks of her life.

They took the train to UA and met up with the rest of Class 1A outside their assigned dorm building. It was only a five minute walk from the main school building, and surrounded by trees. The dorm itself was huge and the entire class was amazed.

"This is crazy," Hitori whispered. "How'd they even build these so fast?"

"Combo of quirks, probably," Bakugo said.

Hitori and Bakugo stopped at the back of the crowd, but that didn't stop Mina, Kaminari, and Sero from noticing them.

"Hitori! Bakugo!"

Mina threw herself at Hitori, who barely managed to keep them both from tumbling over.

"Hey," Hitori said with a smile, hugging her friend.

"I was so worried about you, I'm so glad you're okay!"

"You've been texting me like crazy, Mina. You know I'm okay."

"Yeah, but I haven't seen you! It's totally different!"

"That's fair," Hitori said.

"Are you guys doing okay?" Sero asked. "All For One is crazy, that must've been awful."

"We're fine," Bakugo snapped.

"Hey guys!" Kirishima called.

Hitori looked over her shoulder to see him running towards them. She smiled and waved.

"Hey, how's it going?" Kaminari asked.

"Good!" Kirishima exclaimed. "I'm glad we all got cleared for the dorms, my parents were a little unsure."

"Mine too," Kaminari said. "But I convinced them!"

"So, uh..." Sero started. He looked back and forth between Hitori and Bakugo. "Um, are you guys still..."
