[Broken Wings] Bakugo x Reader x Todoroki (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 3: Progress

"Miss! Miss! What do you think of UA High?"

(Y/n) blinked rapidly as someone snapped a picture of her. A microphone was put up to her face.

"I uh..."

"Do you think you're being taught adequately?"

"I have to get to class..." she mumbled, trying to push past the crowd of reporters.

"Wait! You're Ironwing's daughter!"

The chatter increased by tenfold, the crowd pressed closer, questions being thrown at her, left and right.

"How do you feel about your father passing?"

"Is it true your parent's fought frequently?"

"Were you truly happy?"

(Y/n) froze up at that last comment.

"Get outta here!" a voice barked.

(Y/n) was relieved as she caught sight of Bakugo's blonde spiky hair.

"We're getting to class."

He grabbed her wrist and pulled her through the gathering of reporters. They all stopped in front of the gate, not wanting to set off the security system.

"Thanks Bakugo," (Y/n) sighed. "It was so uncomfortable in the middle of all that craziness-"

"Whatever."

He let go of her wrist and strode ahead, leaving her alone in front of the school.

"Hey (Y/n)!"

"Oh, hi Mina."

"Where were you yesterday? You disappeared right before lunch!"

"Well..." (Y/n) trailed off.

"It doesn't matter. Here, come sit with us!"

She steered the poor girl to her table with her friends.

"Hey (Y/n)!" Kirishima greeted her.

"Hi," she smiled and waved back.

"What the fuck is she doing here?"

"Don't be mean Bakugo! She's gonna sit with us for lunch!" Mina replied, sticking her tongue out.

"Us? I sat here alone, until you fuckin' idiots came along!" he snarled.

The emergency bell rang, startling everyone.

"What's happening?" (Y/n) shouted to Mina as they all filed out of the cafeteria noisily.

"It's a breach of security! We-"

The pinkette was swept away in the sea of students.

(Y/n)'s heart rate increased as she lost Mina in the crowd.

"Mina? Mina! Mina!"

(Y/n)'s shouts were strangled and panicked. The shouting voices around her increased in volume, increasing her stress. She was nearly in tears looking for a familiar face.

She felt someone grab her hand and pull her away from the middle of the crowd near the windows.

"Bakugo!"

(Y/n)'s breathing calmed a bit after recognizing the blonde boy.

"You're a fucking idio-" his sentence was cut off as (Y/n) embraced him in a tight, panicked hug.

"Get the hell away-" He could feel (Y/n)'s rapid heartbeat, and her trembling arms around his waist. He turned his back to the crowd, elbowing people out of the way to make some space.
