Fire Heart (Todobaku)

The great outdoors

Bakugous POV
"Damn it I swear if that shit doesn't quit beeping I'm going to blow it to bits!" I yell into my pillow as the alarm goes off. I hate it! Just beeping the same way till someone does something to it. Just let me fucking sleep! "Bakugou we have to get up earlier so our stuff can get on the bus." I hear Icy Hots feet touch the ground, and starts moving towards the bathroom. "Hell no I gotta pee first!" I jump up, and push past him. If I don't get up before him he will take like am hour in there while I'm forced to hold it. "Well, that's one way to do it." he chuckles to himself outside the door. Damn he's so annoying in the mornings sometimes. "Shut up asshole!" I yell while opening the door. Am I looking forward to this camping trip, no. Do I need to do this stupid competition, no. I'm going for Todoroki, and to show everyone that I'm still going to win. "You're being pretty quiet out there, you fall back asleep?" he growls annoyed. Like I could go back to sleep his annoying ass would just wake me up again. "Hurry your slow ass up before we're late." I growl grabbing our bags. I put them near the door, and wait for him to come out the bathroom. Now wait a second, who all is in our group again. Of course the king which is me, Icy Hot, girl with no clothes, bird, and earphones. There we go I'm starting to realize there's other people in the world besides me. "Fine I'm coming." he spits opening the door. We grab our bags, and head outside. "Good morning Todo!" a cheeky voice rings in my ear. Dear lord she might as well be one of the birds, so annoying. "Morning Bakugou." she smiles, and makes a little wave. I shrugher off, and stare at the little charter bus. As the rest of our group talks, and makes plans I focus on what seat to get. There's no way in hell that I will ride in a bad seat for however long we are on this trash. "Bakugou does that sound good to you?" no clothes girl says turning her head around to peer at me. "Hell yeah, just repeat everything you just said." my evil smirk pulls at my cheeks as she sighs disappointingly. "You're a big role in our plan, you know that right?" the earphones girl chips in. She is one of the most useless people in this whole damn school why is she talking? "I can only hear people who are worth something. So did any of you hear anything?" I look to everyone but her. She growls, but quits arguing. Probably because she knows that she will never win. I look over towards Icy Hot who gives me a death glare. Ugh, I guess I better get a little serious, or our promise is off. Damn it, why can't he just do it anyway? "Okay assholes tell me the damn plan." I grumble waiting for an explanation. "Well basically we never know when the competition starts so we are all going to sit together. Then at the camp we'll be together as well." Girl with no clothes on basically explains. "What the fuck? I have to be with you guys for however long we stay here." I growl, and I can feel my palms getting sweaty. I hate these people, well most of them. I shouldn't have fucking came. Walking away I throw my stuff under the bus, and ignore them all. I don't care about anyone right now, just get this damn trip over with. As I get on the bus I pick the seat that I was aiming for from outside. "Okay I guess everyone just sit around Bakugou." girl with no clothes on sighs. Damn right they are because I'm not moving. Icy Hot sits beside me which isn't so bad, girl with no clothes and earphones sit behind me, and bird is sitting beside Icy Hot. Basically I'm trapped by the damn window like a caged animal. "Icy Hot I'm telling you I'm about to explode." I mumble quietly to where only he could hear me. "Just be nice to them this once." he mumbles back not even looking at me. Damn it I hate it when he does this! It get on my damn nerves so bad. I push my head up against the window staring off into the forest. I love nature it has no boundaries, you can't predict it, it's powerful, and is full of surprises. You never know what could happen in a blink of an eye. "Oh cool look, a baby dear!" raccoon eyes screams, and points out a window. The little fawn looks up, and scurries away. "Great dumb ass now you scared it away." I growl ignoring all the hate looks coming my direction. I'm so used to it I already know it's coming. Blocking everyone out I look at all the beautiful flowers that we pass by. Kirishima used to remind me of a beautiful rose in the middle of the darkness. He stuck out in beauty, kindness, he was always happy no matter what. So, he was that rose, and I was the darkness. Damn it, get ahold of yourself he doesn't love you, and you don't love him. You're finding new friends, new people to talk too. You don't need him in your life, or your thoughts. Wait, what the fuck are you thinking? You don't need anyone, but yourself. "Are you okay?" a little whisper makes its way into my hearing. I jump a little, but quickly collect myself. "When am I not?" I spit back. I don't really want to talk to anyone right now. Just leave me to my thoughts so they can run wild. Wait, was that Todoroki? Shit shit shit what did I do? I look over to see if he seems hurt as we meet eyes. I quickly look away, but I know he's smirking right now, I can feel it. "Alright everyone off the bus." Aizawa waves for us to leave. One by one we all step off the bus onto the soft ground beneath us. "This is so cool!" the no gravity girl shrieks, and jumps into the air. Geez, why are all the girls here so annoying? "We will find a good campsite, and then let the real games begin." his voice lowers making all of us wonder what is in store. "This is going to be so sweet! I'm so pumped for this competition!" a very familiar voice echoes behind me. Keep him out of your mind Bakugou, have a good today. Following behind everyone I stare directly at the ground. I don't want to be here, actually I do, just not with these people. I want to be alone to fully enjoy the nature around me. "Hey Bakugou are you okay?" a delicate voice stops ahead of me. I stop before I run into her, and start to growl. "Oh, sorry about that I shouldn't have just stopped in front of you." Mina says nervously scratching her head. We used to be sort of close till the whole Kirishima thing. I kind of dropped everyone in that group now. "Yeah, you shouldn't have." I mumble as I walk on past her. She joins beside me, and leaves me be. "Yeah, I'm doing fine." I finally answer her question, but keep staring at the ground. Its awkward now talking to them. I do miss them though. They were my best friends, and now its like I don't even know them. "Well I'm glad..." she trails off. I don't know if she trailed off, or if I just cut her off from my hearing. Its to depressing to talk to her. Yeah I may miss them, but the memories with them all evolve him. "You know, I'm still your friend right?" she whispers,but I still refuse to look at her. The bridges have been burnt, and there's no way I'm going through another heart break. "We are not friends." I growl, and move up with the group. I don't want her near me. I don't want anyone from that group near me. Why can't they just understand to leave me alone? "Alright this looks good!" Aizawa tries to yell so everyone could hear. "Now, get into your groups, and find a place to call your base." he sends us off in our groups as we run in a frenzy for the perfect spot. "Over here! We have an advantage point!" earphones yells standing her ground. We all run to where she is at, and debate whether its an actual good spot. "We are on higher ground, which means we can see people coming." bird chirps in with his smart sounding voice. Damn all these people sound like nerds. "I think this is our best bet." Icy Hot confirms, and looks at me with a side glance. I brush it off, and keep to myself. Why do I seem so distant today? "We are not friends." rings in my head from earlier. Oh what I would do to have my friends back, all of them. I wish my heart wasn't won over by that dumb spiky hair. We would still be side by side kicking ass, and I would still have my old friends. The ones who knew when something was wrong, knew how to cheer me up, the ones that didn't get offended by my insults. All of that is gone now, and could it possibly be my fault? Of course it is, but I can't admit that. "Are you even listening?" Momo taps my shoulder knocking me out of thoughts. "You think I would listen to you?" I spit trying to pretend to be myself. I can't let them know something is up, or that's weakness. "We need to start building defense mechanisms." Todoroki says forming ice walls that make a barrier. "Damn it how are we supposed to get shit to build if we can't get out to get sticks?" I growl trying to blast through the ice. "Bakugou fucking stop and think you dumbass!" Icy Hot points at Momo who is already starting to create a shelter. "Her quirk is creation which means she can do it herself." bird explains as I try to calm down. "Don't call me fucking dumb you bastard unless you want to die." I warn leaning against the ice. How the hell are we supposed to get out? "I'm unthawing us a door to get in, and out." he puts his hand against the wall as it slowly starts to melt. What's wrong with me today? Why am I so out of it today? I mean I know I keep saying I didn't want to come, but that's been a lie. I love nature, I love camping so what's wrong? "Since you have your bases come actually set the camp, and then I will explain the training. There will be two to a tent. Girls with girls, and boys with boys." he points to the tents which we obviously have to put up ourselves. "I'll set it up." I mumble grabbing a tent from the pile. My old man and I used to always pit a tent up in the yard since we lived in the city. I love sleeping on the solid hard earth. The sound of nature all around you can put anyone to sleep. "We should camp here." he points to an empty spot on the edge of the tree line. I nod, and drag that tent to where he had pointed. "Hey, are you-are you alright?" he asks as I get to work. No, I'm not alright okay? Something is very wrong, but I don't know what. It makes no sense why I am feeling this way. "I'm fine." I growl. Fuck, what the hell is wrong with me? This is Todoroki we are talking to, he knows everything about us. Come on Bakugou you want to talk, no, you need to talk to someone. Within five minutes our tent is already set up, and its the first. "We might want to go get our stuff now." I walk towards the bus. I just want to relax before we actually have to do work. Not paying any attention to where I'm walking I head towards the bus tripping over someone. "Ouch!" I catch myself before hitting the ground, but that's not my voice. My eyes widen in anger as I slowly rise to my feet. "Damn it watch where the hell your standing!" I yell brushing off dirt on my pants. "I'm so sorry! You know I would never do that on purpose." A small pink blob finally comes up from the ground. Great, out of all people it was her. Isn't this just fantastic? "Watch out next tine Raccoon eyes." I come off a little gentler. I know that much have hurt her. She isn't going to show it, but that was a tough hit. Finally reaching the bus I grab my belongings, and make it back to the tent. "I know something is wrong." Icy Hot unzips the tent, and steps in. His voice is serious, but caring. He's just sick of me lying to him all day. "Leave me the fuck alone." I cover my face with the pillow I had brought. I don't want to think right now. I just want to be completely numb. No feelings, no thoughts, nothing. Like a vegetable basically just here in this world doing nothing, not even thinking. "Bakugou I'm trying to be a friend..." his voice softens, and I almost can't resist it. I love it when his voice is soft. Its never like this, but when it is, it is full of heart. So full of emotion that listening to it can bring tears to your eyes its like a symphony. Like a thousand angels just came down singing from the highest part of heaven. "We are not friends." plays in my head over and over. "Bakugou we have to go." Icy Hot taps on me as Aizawa starts calling for the class. We gather around him anxiously waiting on our exercise. "The people in your group is your team. I hope you all chose wisely, or know how to work with each other." he glances toward my group. Of course we know who he's talking about, me. "You will have a different colored flag to represent your team. The goal is to capture as many flags as possible while keeping your own. Sort of like the Calgary Battle in the sports festival. Except there is no arena, you use everything in your surroundings. Which means anything counts." he hands flags out to each team. "You have ten minutes to hide your flag, and make a plan. Time starts now!" He yells as we scatter through the woods. "Damn we got the brightest color possible!" I growl staring at the bright yellow flag in my hand. Wait, anything goes right? "We need to find mud, now." I search for a mud hole, or any water. If we find mud we can cover the flag in it which means camouflage. I quickly find one, and cover all the yellow in now sticky mud. Adding leaves, and small twigs to it I search for a dark hard to see spot. "Good thinking Bakugou!" Momo chimes behind me. Psh, it doesn't take a rocket scientists to think of this. I mean hell we are in the woods, that is the only thing that makes any sense. "Fumikage needs to protect the flag since he is the quietest. That way he can hide, and if someone gets close he can surprise attack them. Plus, I chose a dark place which is right up his alley." I start explaining the plan. I usually go off instinct, but it isn't just me this time. I mean I know what I need to do, but these people need a plan or else it will all go to hell. "Icy Hot and I are the two strongest so we need to split up. Which means you two girls need to pick who you want to go with. Fumikage and his shadow are basically two people so he should be good." I look up as the girls decide who to go with. Of course I know Momo is going to pick Todoroki, and yes I do actually know their names. I just don't say them cause that would be lame. "Five minutes!" a loud voice echoes through the trees. Dear God who invited Present Mic? "Okay fine I pick earphones since you all are taking to long." I roll my eyes as she slowly walks to my side. Damn I really hate her, truly. She is nothing, but a smartelic. Well, its not like I can say much, but still. At least I'm cool when I do it. "Basically we will keep everyone busy, and on their feet while the ladies go in for the kill." I evilly smile thinking about blasting that little sparky into the sky. I still haven't got my revenge on him, and a free for all is just perfect timing. "TIMES UPPPPPP!" Present Mic yells estatically. "Just follow the plan." I turn making sure earphones was with me, and start sprinting. "Come on you have to be faster then this!" I growl as she follows behind. "Fine! I know where Kirishima and Sparky's group is so follow me! We need Sparky out first because the shadow will be scared of him." I sprint to the most obvious spot. Their so dumb minded this is the only place that makes any sense. "Figures you would come after us." a cocky voice cones from behind a boulder. I hate this damn twerp I just want to stomp a mud puddle in his damn ass. "You're to obvious Bakugou, and we both know why you really came after me. You didn't come because of Fumikage you came because of something else." Sparky teases sarcastically. Damn it Bakugou come on don't let him get to you, not right now. "Oh, you still have feelings for him don't you?" he laughs. I'm seeing red, on my fucking life he is dead. "Sorry I took him from you. He really is adorable isn't he? Especially when you sit on the bleachers and watch the sunset." he laughs a little more, but I literally hear nothing. All I see is a target, and he's right in the middle of it. "YOU SON OF A BITCH!" I yell running at him. I have no control over my body. "I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU!" I scream swinging at him with my right hook. Shit, what the hell? "Bakugou stop!" I hear someone yell, but I ignore it. I'll rip this fucker to shreds. "How could you expect an angel like him to stay with you anyway? I mean be honest with yourself." he continues as I attempt to beat the Shit out of him. Why are my punches not landing, or more like why aren't my punches hurting him? "Look who you're hitting dumbass." he laughs again as I blankly stare down at red spiky hair. "What the fuck? So you planned this shit Kirishima?" I freeze. He sat here and agreed to torture me? "No Bakugou its not like that!" he tries to explain, but my ears are just ringing. All I hear is ultimate betrayal. "No please come back I didn't want him to do that!" he continues to yell, but I continue walking through the forest. I have no idea where earphones went, but I don't really care. I need to be alone, I need to cool off. Tears start to form in my eyes as I try to hold them down. Don't cry over someone that doesn't love you. I wonder deeper through the forest. Do they really watch the sunset together in the same spot? Shit I would have destroyed him if Kirishima wasn't there. It makes a whole lot of sense why my attacks did nothing though. Pull yourself together Bakugou, you don't need them. Especially after today, now Kirishima really is dead to me. "You still have feelings for him?" shoots through my thoughts. I fall to my knees bawling my eyes out. "Of course I still have feelings for him. He was my everything!" I shout into the sky. I look all around me, and see nothing but trees. Shit, where the hell am I? "Kirishima! Todoroki! Momo!" I start to yell names to see if anyone responds. Of course no one does, and I lean on a tree stump for support. Here I am again running off and doing something stupid. "DAMN IT!" I punch the tree behind me as hard as I can. My hand starts to bruise and swell, but that isn't shit to me. Why do I have to be this difficult? Why can't I just block off my feelings completely? It seems like every time I run off it's because I'm upset. That's it, I need to quit acting like a pussy, and face up to my emotions. No running off, no throwing petty fits. I sit down on the ground waiting for what? I have no clue where I am, and I doubt anyone else knows either. As I sit for hours the sky starts turning dark, and I sit in silence. Wow, I really messed up this time. What if I never make it out of here? Of course I know I can survive, but what am my family? My mother will be worried sick, but they should know I won't go down easy. My heart is still broken though, I don't even know if I want to go back. Just seeing him, and knowing he had planned to hurt me will destroy me. I will be reminded of it every single day. How am I supposed to live like that? The clouds grow dark, and the sound of thunder rolls across the ground. Lightning cracks through the sky showing the pink sunset underneath. Its beautiful, but not when you have no shelter. I hear the rain start to trickle down the leaves of the trees. "Damn, just my luck." I mutter to myself. The rain builds up as I try to cover my face from the water. The spikes in my hair start to droop down, and my whole body is completely soaked. The thunder continues to roll louder and louder to the point where it is the only thing I hear. "Bakugou!" my imagination starts to play tricks on me. No one would be out here in this storm looking for me. "Bakugou!" it echoes through my mind as I listen to the song of the rain. I glance up over the crackle of some sticks, and a glimpse of a bright light. It's far off, but right in eyesight. "Bakugou!" I hear again, and this time it isn't my imagination. Wait, was it even my imagination to begin with? "I'm over here!" I yell. My body is so stiff and cold I don't know if I can even get up. I've been sitting in this same position for hours. "Where?" The voice gets a little louder. "I'll keep talking just follow my voice!" I yell again. I have no idea who this is, but I don't even care. It could be damn Deku and I would be fine with it. "Bakugou..." the voice trails off as I am embraced from behind. They're warm, comforting even. Strong arms wrap around me as their head pushes against my back. "You're okay.." they whisper. I know this voice from anywhere, Todoroki. "I was looking everywhere for you. I waited till everyone went to their tents, and snuck out. I'm so glad you're okay." he whispers as he puts his face in my neck. Our bodies are both soaked but yet seems so warm. "Icy Hot since when were you so emotional?" I grin as his grip tightens. Someone actually came to look for me. Someone actually cares about me... I glance down at his hands which look even more bruised then mine. I grab one softly, and start turning it to inspect it. "What did you do?" I ask sternly placing it back down. I still haven't seen his face, but that's okay. I'm just glad that he's here. "I heard what he said to you. I don't know what came over me. Of course I didn't punch him, but I punched about everything else." he explains. His breath brushes against my neck as he clenches his hands to my chest. I turn to face him, and now cover him in my arms. "Get out of the cold." I cover him up with as much of my body as possible with a delicate smile. He went out of his way to come find me. "I hope you know the way back." I tease as his head leans my chest. Come on Bakugou calm yourself, he doesn't like you like this. He's just your friend, he is just happy that you aren't lost. "I-I used my flames to scorch the trees." he wipes his eyes, and stands up. "Um, a little help?" I stick my hand out, and he easily pulls me up. "You know, you're a really good friend.." I try to make some small talk. The rain is still pouring, but I don't even feel it. All I feel is warmth, a warmth from within that I haven't felt in a long while. I feel love, and not the love that you just tell your friends when they do something crazy. It's the love that you have when you leave your parents for a while, and tell them. It's the love you have for someone who you might not ever see again. It is what I believe to be called true love. "I'm glad I found you." he looks over at me, then back to the ground. His emotions are so unreadable to me. Well, except when he's crying, or being a smartelic. I have no idea what he's thinking though. It's like his mind is a safe that no one knows the combination too. We walk in silence following the trees back to the tent which luckily we put near the tree line. "Um thank you.. For looking for me. I didn't really expect anyone too." I pause getting into my sleeping bag. I mean I expected the teachers too, but figured my classmates would actually be happy if I disappeared. "You had our whole team worried, they are good people Bakugou. I told them you were fine so they would calm down, but they cared about you. I wish you could see that." he climbs into his. The sound of it zipping fills the small space around us. "Todoroki I know they're good people, but I'm not." I mutter. I'm freezing, I'm soaked, and this sleeping bag is silk which means it's as cold as ice right now. "Damn it! It's fucking cold!" I growl bundling myself up in a ball. I close my eyes, and try to force myself to sleep. I have no clue the time that's passed, but sleep is impossible. My body is shaking from all the shivers, breathing hurts because of all the cold air I already breathed in, and I'm still sobby wet. As I listen to Todoroki's soft breath I try to focus on that to fall asleep to. After a few moments I douse off only waking up to something warm around me. "What the hell are you doing?" I jump a little, but a arm is tightly around me. "Don't complain you're going to get hypothermia if you don't get warm." he radiates heat from his left side of his body. I refuse to turn towards him, that would be weird. Hold up, is this technically cuddling? "Whatever." I mumble. It actually does feel quit nice, definitely beats the cold anyway. As I listen to his little snores I smile to myself. How adorable actually is he, and he doesn't even realize it. "Goodnight Todo." I whisper as I move closer towards him.
