My Queen (Kacchako)

Chapter 4

Ochako wakes up in the corner of Bakugo's cave, similar to where his dragon was sleeping, but the dragon wasn't there, neither was Bakugo. She slowly rises from the ground and looks around. No one seems to be around, only the burned put-out fireplace near her. She glances down and notices that she was in her original mage clothes, clean and dry.

"Wait a second, I don't remember changing last night!" She yelped to herself.

"The last thing I remember was holding onto Bakugo as he was carrying me back up to the mountain... Wait..." Ochako started to silently freak out, placing her hands on her face, "Oh my god, did he change me while I was sleeping?!"

She quickly stood up and started to limp towards the exit of the cave. As soon as she made it outside, she saw the sun rising on the other side of the damp valley, casting a beautiful light color everywhere. She forgets everything for a second to embrace the sunlight reaching her and stretches her arms out behind her.

Ochako suddenly feels a crazy heavy wind from behind. "What the.." She turns around and sees Bakugo's massive dragon slowly descending above her.

"Get out of the way, dumbass!" Bakugo shouts out as he peeks over from behind his dragon's back, "-or you'll get fucking crushed!"

Ochako quickly jumps over to the other side of the cave with the one leg that works, getting out of the 'landing pad' for Bakugo's dragon. His dragon continued to descend and lands in front of Ochako.

"That dragon... is magnificent! No wonder Bakugo is the Dragon King." Ochako thought to herself, bringing a light smile to her face.

"The hell are you smiling about?" Bakugo hisses as he began to slide down the side of his dragon with a bag full of supplies, starting to walk inside his cave.

"Nothing." Ochako assures, hesitating whether to ask or not, "Did you change me into different clothes last night?! I was sleeping and you shouldn't just take off all my clothes and--!!" She holds back, turning her head away from Bakugo.

Bakugo stops and turns around, glancing into her eyes looking annoyed, "And what? Spit it out."

"-and that means you saw... everything!" Ochako blurted out, her face turning red hot.

Bakugo walked towards her and stops only just a few inches away, towering over her head. He leans over a tiny bit so that he can see her face as she looks up to him. "I didn't change your undergarments, idiot. I took back what's mine and gave back what's yours."

"B-B-But-How are they all clean and dry again?" Ochako chokes out.

"I fucking cleaned them? How else?"

The close and tight moment started to make Ochako nervous. She glances quickly around Bakugo's face, seeing that his skin was very dewy up close like this, his slightly oversized red teardrop-shaped earrings complimenting his face, the way his stubborn, spiky ash blonde hair covering just a little bit of his eyebrows, her cheeks starting to turn rosy pink.

Bakugo noticed a little sparkle coming from her eyes and raised his eyebrow.

"I really should be heading back now.. the storm has passed and-" Ochako stops.

Bakugo looks away from her and turns around, heading back to his cave again. He signals his dragon to head inside as well. The giant, slow footsteps softly bounces Ochako where she's standing.

"Um, thanks for helping me... Bakugo!" Ochako calls out.

Bakugo stops and turns his head, looking over his shoulder, seeing Ochako softly waving outside his cave. He furrows his brow, turns back around and continues walking. Ochako slowly puts her hand back down and started to head back down the mountain. Time to find her way back to the village, and this time, not run into any beasts. It's daylight now, there shouldn't be much of them out anyway.

Bakugo made sure to give a little smirk to himself after he turned his head around and away from Ochako's view. The dragon's eyes looked over to Bakugo and gave a hefty blow through his nose. "Don't start." Bakugo growled.
