Who're We to Say? - a kiribaku fic

Mess at the Park

A/n chapter two baby! Sorry I'm still kinda hyped at the fact that this is my second book. On with the chapter!

Bakugou pov

The park, eh.

I get out the shower, dry my hair off and wrap a towel around my waist. Walking into the rest of my dorm I get dressed and exit only to find Kirishima hanging out right outside my door.

"The hell were you doing right outside my room?!"
"Waiting for your answer."
"Fine I'll go to the stupid park. What are we going to be doing anyway?"
"Well, we all want to know you a little better seeing as I've known them all for a while and you're new to the squad."
"That sounds stupid." I grunt out as he obviously doesn't know what this entails.
"I don't think it does."
"Because you won't be the one getting interviewed."
"Oh. I guess that would make sense."
"Tch, let's just go."

I put in my earbuds and start walking.

"Bro wait up!"
"Walk faster, Shitty Hair."

We get to the front gate. And he finally stops talking.

"Hey Bakugou!"
"Ugh, hi Pinky."
"Hey Mina where's Sero?"
"Oh he said he couldn't come he still had homework to finish."
"That's rough."
"Aww man my best bro isn't coming?"
"Sorry Kami. He's really bummed about it too."
"I gotta text him gimme a sec."

Reject Pikachu pulls out his phone and texts Tape Arms. After a few moments of idling around Pikachu whoops in excitement.

"He said that he's coming!"
"Woah how'd you convince him???!!!"
"Bribery!" He makes jazz hands as he speaks.
"You guys are taking too long I'm going to start walking."
"Hey Blasty, wait up!"

Shitty Hair jogs to me I just 'tch' and keep walking. I look his direction and he opens his mouth to say something then closes it immediately. Peaking my curiosity I spit.

"What? If you're going to say something don't pussy out."
"Right, that was unmanly of me wasn't it..." he looks down then continues "out of the girls here who do you think is the most attractive." That's clearly not what he was gonna say. Without thinking I respond.
"None."
"What?"
"None I'm a fuckin queer. Got a problem?"
"No I just didn't expect it. I think it's cool."
No fucking way dude! Yes! Calm down hoe breathe.
"Shit." I mutter under my breath I can tell the others are near by.
"Hey Kiri, Baku!" Pinky shouts.
"Baku? What the hell kind of name is that?!"
"I like it Mina."
"Thanks Kami at least someone is appreciative."
"So what were you two talking about?" Tape Arms wiggles his eyebrows.
"None of your damn business!"
"Hey guys calm down we're at the park already." Leave it to Kirishima to keep the peace. Wait, Kirishima? Nonono his name is Shitty Hair.

The four idiots of the apocalypse chat together while scouting out a place to sit. Once Pinky spots a place she flops to the floor.

"Time for the questioning!"
"Ugh fine." I mumble and sit down on the soft grass.
"Okay everyone sit in a circle or in a line directly across from Bakugou."
"I like the line idea y'know interview time."
"Shut it Tape Arms."
"A line it is Kami, Kiri! Pay attention."
"Sorry Mina."
"Whoopsies."

Everyone then lines up as my fate gets determined. First to question is Raccoon Eyes, Shitty Hair, Tape Arms, and last Pikachu.

"First question! What's your sexuality?"
"What the fuck? That's the first question!? I'll have you know that who I want to date is none of your fucking business! Got it?" I hiss menacingly but she clearly didn't get the message.
"So..... not straight, your turn Kiri!"
"Uhm, what are your interests?"
"Thank All Might for a normal question," I mumble "art, baking, cooking, being better than everyone."
"One of those things was not like the other." He chuckled. "That it?"
"Sorta. I don't do much other than train and study."
"Ohmigawd Mina that's so sad! We need to help him!" Pikachu looks at Pinky with puppy eyes.
"I know he's so depressing!" She whisper yells back at him.
"I can fucking hear you, you cremated tomatoes."
"Pffft! What the hell bro?!" Kirishima wheezes out.
"Okay, Okay! My turn. Bakugou, why are you such a prick?"
"I don't fuckin know asshole! Next question."
"Alright it my turn. Bakubro, out of us four who makes you un poco loco?" Shitty hair covers his mouth in an attempt to not laugh, Pinky snorts out in laughter and Tape Arms grips onto Pikachu's shoulders to keep himself up due to laughing so hard.

"I'm- what the hell?"
"Who makes you un poco loco, bro?"
"The fuck does that mean?"
"Who makes you a little crazy?"
"First, thanks shitty hair for the translation. Second, you all make me more than a little crazy. Third, am I allowed to go now?"
Pinky gasps and raises her hand to her chest as though she's seriously offended. "No you are not! We haven't even eaten!"

She pulls out a picnic basket and pulls out sandwiches and shit. We eat, chat and I get questioned occasionally. A few hours of it pass by and the sun begins to set. I look up at the sky in silence as the chatter around me fades out as I watch the sky turn from blue to yellow, yellow to red. Purples and oranges dancing together as the sky slowly darkens.

"...kugou."
"Bakugou! Did you even hear us?!" Dunce face waves in my face snapping me out of the peace my mind was in.
"I guess I didn't." My voice was regretfully soft lacking any edge. Always happens when I watch the sunset. Damn tranquility ruining my reputation.
"Woah your voice sounds different. Like calmer or something. Where did you go for the past 30 minutes."
"I went fucking nowhere." My voice not matching my words. Shit shit shit.
"Anyway you never answered our question." I look around to find that Kirishima had left. Oh god please no.

"What do you think about Kiri?" Raccoon eyes looks at me face full of curiosity.
"I, he's just as annoying as the rest of you." My voice cracked giving away my lie. Hopefully she's to stupid to notice.
"I see... well we should head back to the dorms."
"Tch you guys can go together I'm walking by myself."

I turn away and start jogging back to the Heights Alliance building poisonous thoughts swirling my head as I reach my dorm room. Do you really think you have a chance? He probably lied about being cool about you gay to make you feel better. He's probably with that pink chick. Why am I so stupid I let my guard down in front of them. Why am I such an asshole! I slam my head against the desk hard. Taking off my uniform and putting on a tank top. I look down at my arm and aim a few blasts at it. Burning it successfully. The perks of having a destructive quirk. It's better than cutting. It hits harder. Tears well up in my eyes as a knock on my door shocks me back to reality. Shitty Hair's voice muffles its way through the door.
"Bakugou? You okay? I heard a few explosions and a large thud."
"..." I don't answer him knowing if I do my voice will give me away.
"Alright I'll be in my dorm if you need anything."
"..."

A minute or so later footsteps walk away from my door and I hear the gentle closing of his. I should've said something I want to say something. I can't say anything! I scream not holding anything in, not caring who hears. I need to let out some steam. I open my drawer and pull out an ointment to treat my burns. Hoping it won't leave any bad scarring this time.

I pull out my sketchbook and start working pouring all of my emotions onto this paper. I don't care if the proportions are off or if it's 'edgy' I just need a better outlet than burning up my limbs.

Three hours later well past when I usually go to sleep I finish the piece I was working on. God, why am I so fucking sad. It's a dragon standing tall on a rock proudly roaring to scare of any threats, but all over its body are scars and burns and in its eyes are tears ,clearly in pain, all around it are words of praise. It keeps on roaring keeps on living for the sake of others but soon enough its injuries will consume it.

I press my back against the wall. The wall connected to Shitty Hair's dorm. I need to get to sleep. Well tomorrow is a Saturday.

I get up and open the door to the 'balcony' taking in the cool night air. I lean against the railing closing my eyes, my burn against the cool metal. I take a deep breath through my nose and hold it. It's so calm so quiet. I could stay here all night.

"Bakugou?"

Or not......

A/n cliffhanger bitches you thought this was gonna be a happy chapter. Well you thought wrong!
