Bakugo X Reader Oneshot

A Priceless Moment

(Y/N)'s P.O.V

Why do the U. A. Sports Festival has to be so stressful? Yes, I did win the race in 1 second with my teleportation quirk, but I almost lost the Cavalry battle. My quirk could be at its limit. How am I going to win the Battle tournament? What am I going to do?

My first opponent was Hanta Sero. I won that battle easily. I teleported him outside the arena. After that, I started to get confident until I saw who was my next opponent: Bakugo Katsuki. Shit. He's way too strong for me. Even if he is my friend, he won't go easy on me. Since I was too much stressed, I decided to go in the waiting room to calm down myself. Thank god nobody was there. I sat on a chair and took my head between my hands. I had to find a strategy to beat him! All I have to do is to reach him and teleport him outside the arena, but how? I can't use my quirk too much. In front of him is too risky. Maybe if I teleport behind him? Come on! He's not stupid!

A sigh escaped my lips. Mom, dad, I'm sorry. I'm not enough strong. I believed I could be a hero and protect the others, because I couldn't protect my own parent. I'm so sorry... My eyes started watering and hot tears falled down my face. Suddenly, the door brusquely open. Oh no... Not now... Rapidly, I stood up and tried to get out of the waiting room while hiding my eyes with my hair. I was going, but Bakugo took my arm.

"Where the fuck are you going? I have to talk to you" he snapped.

"What do you want?" I tried to say without my crooked voice.

"Haven't you heard of looking someone in the eyes when they are talking?" he took my chin and lift it so I had no choice but to look at him. His eyes widen when he saw I was crying.

"Why were you crying?"

"I wasn't crying"

"Yes, you were"

"No, I wasn't"

"Yes, you were crying" he said starting to get annoyed.

"I'm fine! I wasn't crying!" I lied.

"THEN WHAT ARE THOSE TEARS!?" He shouted. I didn't say anything. I just looked down. Since I wasn't answering, he continued: "Why were you crying?"

I took a big breath and responded: "I was thinking about my parents. I wanted to win the U.A. Sports Festival for them or at least be in the top 3. I was getting confident that I could win this, but now I know that I can't. I don't stand a chance against you and it really makes me sad. I wanted to show them that I could now protect the one I cherish, but it seems like I'm still weak."

As I was talking, more tears were falling. Why am I even saying that to him? He'll answer the same thing as he did to the others. "You better give up then. I'll win anyway." or " Of course you're going to lose! You're too weak!" Seriously... What did I expect?

He was going to talk, but we were called to prepare for the battle. Before going, he murmured to me a small "Good luck".

~Timeskip to the battle~

We were called to the arena and were introduce. I was feeling better since I found a strategy to beat him. His explosion makes smokes right? Why not take advantage of it? I had to make sure he makes enough smokes, teleport behind him to gain his attention and then teleport above him. Only a touch and he's out of the arena. Everything was going right, but I couldn't teleport him at the end. that's what I hate about my quirk. I don't know when is its limit. He noticed me and he throw me out with an explosion. I lost consciousness.

I was awakened by Recovery Girl and someone talking.

"How is she?"

"She's still injured, but she'll be fine. Congratulation on winning Bakugo!"

"I-"

"Oh, so you won it. Congrats." I interrupted.

"You're awake!" said Recovery Girl. She looked how I was doing and go see the other injured.

We were silent a moment before I spoke up.

"Who took me here?"

"I did"

"Can I ask you something? Why are you nice to me and rude to the others? Why do you keep being kind to me when you keep telling everyone to die? By the way, why haven't you say it to me yet? To you, I'm weak like the others right? Ah! I get it! This is what you wanted to tell me in the waiting room!"

"What the fuck are you talking about? That's not it!"

"Then what is it?"

He answered. But not with words, with an action. The kind of action that made my heart melt. He just kissed me. Of course at first I was surprised, but I slowly kissed back. I could feel him smile. That moment was priceless. Unfortunately, we needed air and had to broke the kiss.

"Does that answer your question? And never say you are weak in front of me. Is that fucking clear?"

I was too startled to say something so I just nodded.

"That was so manly, Bakugo!" said a voice.

We both looked toward the door to see a smiling Kirishima.
