With You [Bakugou x Villain!Reader]

24: Promise

Warning: Strong language ahead. 

--- ---- ---

According to the Fire Dept., an emergency call was made around the late evenings yesterday night to report an unexpected wild fire case at the old, abandoned warehouse. When fire and police crew arrived to the scene, the structure was 'completely demolished and burnt to the ground,' according to one officer. Investigation is still being launched in hopes of recovering any possible bodies and survivors that may be hidden under the debris. 

You absently press a button on the remote, switching the television to of black and white static. Blankly, you let the buzzing noise continue to play through your dim house, too tired to find the correct button to turn the television off.   

From the corner of your eyes, you could see the familiar, dusty picture frame resting on the television stand. Looking at the precious photo of you and your father posing childishly in front of Disney World's  Cinderella Castle starts to bring tears to your eyes. You couldn't help but start to recall all of the fond memories you spent together. 

"You promised that you wouldn't leave me.." you choke out silently as you face yourself away from the screen. 

As you draw your body closer to yourself, you couldn't help but let out a few chuckles at the tears slipping down your cheeks. "Now I look so fucking pitiful."

A few hours passes by by the time you wake up to the sound of keys jingling at your front door. You sit yourself up in disbelief, unsure whether you were imagining it or not. Your eyes focuses solely at the door as your heart races again in anticipation.

Was this who you thought it was? Did your father make it out? 

He's alive?

Few more seconds goes by before the squeaky door gently swings open. Your heartbeat speeds up in expectancy to be greeted by the usual 'same old, same old' phrase your father loved to always say.   

"Whoa-oh for fucks sake, (Y/N)!" Katsuki stares at you with a startled look on his face. 

Your heart shatters a little bit.

Of course.

Who else could it have been? You should've known. 

Katsuki turns back around to return the spare key under your front door mat before returning his gaze back at you. "Why the fuck is it so dark in here?" He continues, flicking the light switch on before re-locking the door and making his way towards you.  

You sigh in distraught as you lay back down on the sofa, covering your face back with your arm. "Get out, Katsuki." 

"After coming all this way? Fuck no!" The blond replies as he places the bag of goods he brought from the convenience store on the table. He rummages through it for a while before tossing a wrapped rice ball towards you. 

"How can you stand that sound? It's so fucking annoying!" He mumbles, turning your television off before moving to the couch. He props your head up with ease as he slides his way to rest on the seat. Basically, he situated himself to be used as a lap pillow for you. 

Completely drained, you let out a mumble at his dominance, too tired to continue the meaningless conversation. You just quietly unwrap the food and stuff it in your mouth. You could feel your body greedily accept the food, contempt that you have finally remembered to nourish it again.  

"You look like shit," Katsuki grins as he watches you gobble the food, running his hand through your hair softly. 

You scoff, turning your eyes away from his in disbelief. "Thanks. That makes me feel so much better." 

"Don't worry, babe. I'd still fuck you," Katsuki whispers, tilting your face back towards him.

"I'm sure you would," you turn back slightly to flick his forehead, but before you were able to, you were greeted by a quick kiss on the lips. 

Katsuki pulls himself down to cuddle beside you on the couch. You rest against his chest as you fit your body between his. A content sigh passes through the both of you in each other's company.

"You know I was joking, right? You're hot for a piece of shit," Katsuki murmurs against your hair, twirling the ends of it delicately with his fingers. 

"Classy, aren't you?" You laugh in his grasp, "you sure know how to charm a lady." 

"Fuck yeah I do."

The two of you stay in the warm position for a while longer, bringing drowsiness to both of you. 

"Are you .. are you going to leave me too?" You whisper quietly against his chest, holding the edge of his tank top tighter in your hands. You tilt your head back down when you notice Katsuki's eyes were closed, meaning that he probably fell asleep. A part of you was glad that he did not hear your question, while the other half of you wants to know his answer. 

You begin to flutter your eyelids closed as well until you feel Katsuki wraps his arms around you more securely. A blush trails on your face when he starts rubbing soothing circles along your back.  

"I will fucking protect you from now on, so you won't see me leaving you anytime soon. That's a fucking promise."
