The Bakurocket!

Late Night Floating Thoughts

The very first thing the anti-gravity girl did as soon she got home was to call Tsuyu and awkwardly describe everything just happened.

And the more she talked... the bubblier her insides got. It felt like her stomach was so ticklish just by, you know, remembering it.

Why?... Because it kinda was her very first... uh... "love confession". Sorta.

"Kero- Love is probably a strong word -kero. Maybe 'liking' is more suited for Bakugou." Asui's voice reached her through her tablet.

"Yeah, but STILL..."

"Now, I'm actually impressed Ochako-chan!" Tsuyu continued "I'd thought you were always popular with boys..."

"Hahaha! Y-yeah... about that..."

Ok, back her Middle School days, her friends would either boast or gossip about the boys who liked her (not so Froppy Style, but you get the idea)... So, since she always knew who was...

She'd always avoid them.

"You what? Why - kero?"

"I dunno... I just never wanted to go through that weird moment when you tell someone who just grew the balls to tell you they like you... that I don't fell the same." sitting on her floor, Ochako laid her brown head over the bed side, feeling a little nostalgic and a lot lame. Also... there was this weird feeling she was missing something quite basic... "Plus, I've found that if you avoid them for enough time, well... they get the message anyway."

"I see, I see..." said her friend. A light mocking aura surronding her tone. "So... I guess it just never happened you like the guy back..."

"Oh, it happened! Twice!" said Ochako.

"Really!? And how it went?"

"I asked my parents to change schools... Both times."

This time it took a whole few seconds for Tsuyu digest what that implied befire asking:

"...HUH?! You're that shy on that matter -kero?"

"It's not really shyness... It's... complicated." Now the ticklish sensation has changed to a full giggle while remembering something from the old days "The last time was quite interesting..." but before even starting she finally spot the clock on her wall, warning her about dinner time. OH, THAT'S IT! It was her turn to cook! "AH! Gotta go now! See you tomorrow, Tsuyu-chan!"

"Wai- NO, -KERO! TELL ME WHAT HAPPENE-" 

But Ochako had already hang up.

At night, after having a nice dinner with her parents, a wonderful bath, and finished her homework, Uraraka allowed herself to crawl comfortably under the sheets, take a deep happy breath, close her eyes, open them once again and then, just then, start panicking as angry words crossed her mind.

"Tomorrow I'm going to ask you the same damn thing. So you better answer it."

Holly shit, this was for real. The brunette was so baffled with the whole situation, describing every beat of what happened to Tsuyu... that she totally forgot to ask for her advice on WHAT THE HELL RESPOND.

Stupid!

Looking back the round clock on the wall, it was clearly too late to give Froppy a call, and messaging her would be just as nonsensical.

But then again.. it was kind of an emergency...

Grabbing her phone, she sended a short "Forgot something. Pls. try to meet me before class tomorrow!". Ochako was ready to put it back under her pillow when a weird, weird thought crossed her mind.

Do I have Bakugou's number?

She searched through her contacts and the answer was... Yes. The OTHER answer for the question she didn't even had to make was also Yes.

Katsuki B. was online.

Oh, boy... Where did this urge to message him was coming from? Why would she deliberatly bring herself closer to an event she could avoid until after classes...?

"Don't even know what I'm doing anymore..."

That being said, she takes another deep breath... and sends him a boring "Hey..."

Ochako put her phone down, but not a minute later the damn thing 'bzzz' back

Katsuki B. says:

"Hey"
