Bakugou's point of view

Over the past couple of months, training for our hero licensing exam, get in touch with our teachers that are supposedly helping us out with our quirks, and getting ready to finish our first year in high school, Deku and I haven't had the time for each other. Yes, a couple of weeks ago we celebrated our seventh moth anniversary, but that was the only time we really took a breather from work and school, to be with each other. I knew this was going to be hard, with everything on our plate, but I'm sure we would manage.

Deku and I talked about getting an apartment after we got out of school, but he told me it seemed too early to be thinking about moving in together since we are barely finishing our first year. I don't blame him for his reasoning, but I just want to be with him. I don't always want to have to sneak out of my room after curfew to knock on his door, so I can be able to sleep with him before morning comes around.

I was lying in bed, throwing a ball over my head, thinking about the future, and becoming an awesome hero. The thought dawned on me, and that's when I realized that Deku and I were eventually going to have to take a break from each other to be able to fulfill our dreams of becoming a hero. I sigh with annoyance as I pull my arm away from underneath my neck to slip my hand inside my pocket once I felt a vibration. With my other hand, I grabbed the ball that was about to hit me directly on the face.


[FavoriteNerd] Kachaan, I won't be able to swing by tonight. Gran Torino gave me many exercises to perfect for tomorrow's meeting.


I sigh to myself as I reply with a simple okay before shutting off my phone and pocketing my phone. I start to throw the ball again at the ceiling, and put my arm behind my neck back, as my eyes fixate on the roof.

"Why did it have to be so fucking hard?" I say to myself as I grab the ball tightly and throw it towards the door with anger. I flop back on my bed, slowly falling asleep.


   Next day


It was the end of another day from summer break when I got a phone call from my mother. I answer the phone call with calmness before she starts yelling at me through the phone for not visiting her or my dad. I yell back at her, causing the door in front of me to knock. I tell the old hag I'll call her when I feel like it before opening the door to reveal a tired Deku.

"Hey," Deku says to me, allowing himself inside my room. I close the door behind me and turn on the lights. Deku sits on my bed to then lay on his side, both arms folded together and close to his face.

"Hey," I say as I sit on my desk chair, admiring his calm face. He smiles at me and then closes his eyes.

"I'm guessing training was hard?" I asked him as I roll over closer to him to caress about his cheek. Deku opens his eyes again to see me staring at him, to return my gesture with a smile.

"Yeah," He says with calmness and tiredness. This idiot is over during everything just so he could overpass me, and everyone else. He needs to calm down.

"Strip"

"W-what?"

"Strip so you can take a fucking shower. You reek," I say as I get up form the chair, pulling my hand away from Deku's face, to enter my bathroom to start the water. Deku giggles at me before blushing hard red.

He meets up with me in the restroom, fully naked. I smirk as I see his silky and sweety body, beautifully defined arms, wanting to nibble and bit into them. I control myself as I grab his hand and help him get into the shower, from how sore and weak he felt. I helped him clean himself by jumping in the shower with him.

"Kachaan?"

"Mmm,"

"Do you think we should take a break?" Deku says as I scrub his hair with shampoo. I sigh. I knew this was coming, but I just thought it would be later. Not now. I want him now.

"Deku, let's talk about that after we finish showering," I say as I continue to scrub his head. I ignore eye contact with him because I know the face he's making. He's making that same stupid face that gets me every time: Sadness and worry, which also turns into being cute and adorable, which I too hate and love at the same damn time.


   Small Time-Lapse


"So, back to the question, I asked you in the shower..." Deku starts the conversation, fiddling his thumbs with his head down. I lent him a pair of knee cap shorts and a grey hoodie since he didn't bring any other clothes than the clothes he sweated in.

"...what do you think about it?" Deku continues to push the knife more in-depth into the wound without realization. I sigh as I place both of my fingers in between my eyebrows, applying pressure to the bone of my nose.

"Deku, I'm apprehensive about our future," I state as I make him look me in the eyes as I sit on the desk chair while he sat on the foot of my bed.

"I fucking hate using cheesy ass statements but, whatever you choose, I'll agree with," I say with a corner smile. Deku looks me in the eyes, and I can tell he's just as scared as I am. I can see that tears welling in his eyes, making me so on edge.

"I-I want to take a break," Deku says with a hiccup from swallowing a knot in his throat and sniffling his boggers away fro the verge of crying. I smile at him as I raise my hand to his cheek to wipe the single tears running down from his eyes.

"N-Not because I don't love you anymore, it's just. Somehow, everything seems to be getting in the way of our time. I mean, first, I have two heroes trying to train me to become stronger, then I have the hero studies that—"

"Deku, shut up," I say to him as I place my hand on his mouth. He continues to let the tears leak out from his eyes, causing my heart to hurt. I sigh as I uncover his mouth.

"Are you okay with this?" He asks me with fear in his eyes. My response to his question was a kiss. I pecked his lips gently, leaving some of my salivae on his parch lips, before turning my lips into a smirk.

"Just don't fucking move on because if you do, I'll shove my foot right up your ass!" I yell at Deku, which made him chuckle while squinting his eyes, causing the last tears to roll down his cheeks. He wraps his arms around me and nuzzles his head in the crook of my shoulder. I hug back and lay my chin on his head.

"T-Thank you, Kachaan," He mumbles in my arm, creating soft tickles in my shoulder. I kiss the top of his head before placing my chin on his head, again.

"You should get some sleep," I say as I pull him away from the embrace. He rubs his eyes as he unwraps me to smile and look at me. He nods and gets up with me right beside him.

I decided to take him to his room so that he could have all his equipment ready and set for tomorrow morning. We walk along the hallway without hands in each other. After taking a couple of minutes to ponder on the situation at hand, I spoke to Deku.

"I'm guessing we can't fuck anytime soon?"

"I never said that," Deku whispers into my ear before unlocking his door, and just before he closed it, he winked at me.

That damn nerd.

I chuckle at his response before heading back to my room to go to sleep to wake up early in the morning for my meeting with Jeanist at his building.
