Katsuki's Christmas Carol

2

  Katsuki really didn’t get any sleep last night. Not only is he sleepy, but his Yet-to-Come Ghost will live with him until Christmas. How jolly it is for the explosion boy to hear his cute voice for the next 21 days.

Talking about last night, it’s a huge baloney for Katsuki –he really wishes he could shut the phantom’s mouth up-, but Izuku insisted on telling Katsuki everything that he needs to know and also making a list of his classmates.

  For 21 days, Katsuki will go to his classmates’ entire house and help them with any difficulties they’re having in celebrating their Christmas; helping 2 people or more in one day is allowed. It sounds simple –even the ash blonde boy said he can do it in a week-, but of course Izuku has more hidden up his sleeve. It won’t be easy for Katsuki if he keeps pushing people away and looks at them as nothing more than a mere pebble. But Izuku isn’t that evil, so he made today -4th
December- easy for his childhood friend.

  “Come on, hurry up, Kacchan! It’s our first day, we should be ready soon!!” Izuku said excitedly as he floated downstairs with Katsuki.

  “Shut the fuck up, you damn ghost! You better fucking leave me alone for god sake! You’ll make me crazy with that annoying voice of yours!”

  Izuku pouted. Katsuki is really grumpy if he doesn’t get enough sleep, he should write that down later in his notes. He follows the walking grenade to the kitchen. Even though it’s already 9 AM, it still seems too early for the Bakugou family to start the day. But there’s nothing wrong
in asking right?

  “Kacchan, where are your parents?” Izuku asked as he glanced around the dining room –which is close to the kitchen-. Katsuki didn’t even bother to answer. He let out a yawn as he opened one of the cabinets, searching for his mug. It was black with orange explosions on it –simple yet defining the owner-. He took the pitcher out of the coffee brewer, he can still feel heat radiating from it, meaning the
old hag just had her morning coffee a while ago. With his mug, he took a seat on his favorite spot –the left bench from the dining table- and began his morning ritual.

  Katsuki isn’t really the kind of person who needs his daily dose of caffeine, unlike his mother. But after the countless nightmares he got after the sludge incident, he can’t help but become a little sleep deprived. Being a tight person he is, he decided to give coffee a shot. And it became a habit of his whenever he didn’t get enough sleep.

  “I never knew Kacchan likes coffee.. Should I give you coffee beans as your Christmas present?”

  “No need to, nerd. I rarely drink coffee anyway. I need this so I can fucking survive from your damn plan.”

  “Oh Kacchan, I already told you that we’ll take it easy on our first day! But that doesn’t mean we can laze around like this!” The phantom pout.

“Calm your ass down. I’m not even sure that shitty hair is awake now.” Katsuki said.

“Then why don’t you ask him now?” Izuku asked.

“Not until I’m done with my morning routine.”

Izuku let a sigh escape his mouth. He never knew that Katsuki is really strict with his own life. Well, it’s not really surprising for a guy who lives only to be the best.

  It was around 10 when they exited the house. Katsuki is wrapped in a simple black sweater that covers his red t-shirt with a black skull in a gear at the middle, and also a black jacket with also a white skull in the middle for the outer. He also wore a black knitted beanie that his mother gave
him last year, complete with a grey scarf with a red stripe on the right side.
