Why did He Stay

Bakugou pov

I wake up early once more to shitty hair on my floor again. I look down at his sleeping frame in disbelief. You'd think he'd leave. Does he really care? I mean your ass just told him that you basically tried to kashoot yourself so of course he'd be here. I step over him the pattern familiar to yesterday morning. Just how often will this happen.

I walk out my dorm gently shutting the door. My feet carry me to a room that I'd never visit if I had control of them. Shit nerd Deku's door stood in front of me, and before I could process what in hell I was doing I knocked. I hear him get up and step towards the door. He opens it and rubs his eyes. I clearly woke him up.

"H-hello?"
"Let me in damn nerd."
"K-Kacchan?!"
"Quiet and let me in!" I whisper yell at him pushing myself into his room. I really don't want to be here.
"Why are you here so early?"
"Because it's about... that again."

Deku was the one who stopped me when I tried to... tried to off myself. He and Kirishima are the only two who know about the severity of my state of mind.

"Kacchan you said you would get help."
"I never told my parents. Didn't think it'd help."
"What's it about this time? Even if you don't have a professional I'm here to listen."
"I don't need your pity. I just need someone else to talk to other than Shitty Hair. You know how I started talking to him recently, yeah? Well along with that some... unwanted feelings arrived and seeing as I'm practically always around him. He now knows about my issues and he always tries to help. Hell right now he's sleeping in my fucking room on the floor because he didn't leave my side last night! He obviously doesn't like me and I hate myself for being so easily drawn in by him. I don't know what to do, Izuku." I cringe at the accidental use of his real name.
"Kacchan I, you're going to hate this idea but I think you should talk to him."
"Hell no am I doing that. What am I even supposed to say?!" I keep my voice quiet half yelling at him.
"I'm not sure. Maybe confess? He's gay too, right?"
"First off pan, second off really after all fuckin that and you want me to confess?! I thought you were smarter than this. Your ass just doesn't understand that this could be the ending of the only good friendship in my life."
"Sorry, I didn't realize."
"Yeah fucking yeah. If he finds out he'll definitely be weirded out."
"If he's pan don't you think he'd be understanding? I mean I know we aren't all the same but there are similar struggles right?"
"I guess." I mumble looking down I don't want to look him in the eyes right now. "I'm staying the morning here I know if I go downstairs I'll just end up stress cooking."
"Okay I was gonna take a run on the beach so I'll see you later?"
"Fuck off I'm only here to get my shit together."
"S-Sorry Kacchan! Bye."
"Tch." Stupid shitty Deku making things worse.

He closes his door and I sit on the floor wondering what to do now. "There are similar struggles right?" "You should talk to him." "Maybe confess?" His words float through my head attempting to drive me mad. I stare at the wall blankly pondering my next move. "Maybe confess?" Again Deku's suggestion makes it's way into my mind. Fuck it I'm stress cooking.

I stomp my way downstairs and pull a bunch of shit out of the cabinets, fridge, and pantry. I decide to make omelettes and more crepes though this time with choosable add-ons.

An hour later and everything's finished I plate my food and start eating. Slowly my peers trickle in and I tell them to get what they want. They thank me and eat their shit.

"Heyyy Baku! Food is really good like, really good."
"Fuck off Pinky what do you want." I roll my eyes at her.
"Yay! Okay I was thinking that you and I could hang out today!"
"Round face call off a date with you or something? Why're you asking me?"
"Yes, she said she wanted to hang with Midoriya and Todoroki. I'm asking you cause you look like hell."
"Fine lets just get out of here. I'll let you drag me around."
"Cool, come on!"
"Wait I need to get ready." I see Kirishima wave at me.
"Mornin' Baku!" I ignore him and head up to my dorm to get something better to wear.

I pull on a plain shirt, a black hoodie overtop that says "bitchy gay, not ready for today" in rainbow lettering, some ripped jeans and a pair of Doc Martens and I head back downstairs.

"Alright Pinky let's go."
"Love the fit, it's perfect for you."
"I wouldn't own it if it weren't."
"True."

We head to the front gate, simple chatter coming from us as we do. They're fine by themselves but not all together.

"So how're things with you and Round Face?"
"They're good our 3 month is coming up."
"3 months and you didn't tell the gay nightmares™️? I'm shook."
"Yeah I mean- wait the gay nightmares?"
"Yeah otherwise known as the squad. It's what I call us."
"Ohhhh, anyway she still wants to keep things on the dl cuz she thinks Midoriya likes her."
"Does she see the way he looks at half n' half?"
"I don't think so."
"Anyway where are we going?"
"The mall, I need new clothes and you need to get outside."
"Ugh, seriously?"
"Yes seriously! I mean what's got you all in a funk?"
"Nothing important, bitch."
"That's what I am, but like seriously if something is tearing at you tell Mama Mina."
"Nothing is up except for my crippling depression." I snicker at my own stupid remark. "God, I need help."
"Woah Baku, you have depression?"
"I mean I don't know but I'm pretty sure, just never went to the doctor about it." I leave out me trying to explode my head off. Literally.
"You should it's not something to beat around the bush with."
"Eh I'm still here aren't I? Let's just go to the mall."

We walk silently the rest of the way. God Katsuki you sure do know how to make people uncomfortable. We reach the mall and Pinky grabs my wrist pulling me in.

"C'mon the shops await!"
"Ack, fuck off my arm Pinky before you rip it out of its socket."
"Sorry, but come on!"

We first head to a few clothing stores where I grab a few items in each. I'm now carrying both mine and Pinky's shit. We walk around buying more unneeded things she even convinced me to buy a hi-lo skirt, crop top, and bright red lipstick.

"I'm fuckin hungry let's get something for lunch."
"Like here in the food court?"
"No like something hella greasy to drown my sorrows in."
"McDonalds?"
"Yeah. Also take your shit I'm done carrying it."
"You have to wear that fit I made you buy this Saturday."
"Pinky, take your shit and maybe I will!"
"Fine damn, hoes mad."
"Biiiiitch look who's talking." I'm honestly kind of glad that I hang out with her today. Let's me be full flamboyant.
"Who knew all I had to do was bring you to the mall to get you to open up?"
"Honestly, I never show this side of me. Like ever, well there was yesterday morning but still."
"Tea bitch?"
"Oh fuck off, like I'd tell you." I snort and she slaps me on the shoulder.
"I thought we had something!"
"You thought wrong then, biatch!" She gasps and I wheeze out a laugh.
"Let's go get your Mickey D's."
"WE GONNA GET THE D!" I run towards the McDonalds leaving her behind me.
"BAKU WHAT THE FUCK!"

I think I have a new best friend.

A/n high-key all of the gays are in 1-A lmao. I mean with the amount of students at UA it could be possible that the gays just got dumped in one class. Besides M***ta. Fuck him, actually don't do that. What the hell am I on about? Have a g(ay)reat day/night/ ass crack of dawn
