Katsuki Bakugou x GN Reader - Gentle Touch
Word Count: 4,887

(A/N: The original one shot was about 800 words... then I made it over 4000 words... oops.)

⚠️CW: The reader is injured (burned) in a flashback section and is described with a scar throughout. The injury is never described, but the scar is. Also, one of the plot points surrounds a fear of touch, but it's also not talked about specifically. I don't know how much of an issue it is, but I'd thought I'd include the information!

! Some things have changed !
• More stuff was added, but I kept most of the original story points.

It was a certainty that among the tens to hundreds of thousands of applicants who applied to UA every year that there were some who knew each other. And, it was basically inevitable that, of the students who were accepted, at least a handful would also know each other. That was all basic probability.

But, three students who all knew each other in UA's most difficult to enter course? With only 200 students being accepted a year, all three of them would have had to score well above high on the written exams followed by having a close to stellar performance in the hero course exam to accomplish it.

Yet, on the first day of class, it didn't seem all too impossible.

You had arrived fairly early, nervous to navigate the large, unfamiliar school yet excited to finally be in the hero course, and made your way to the classroom far before the bell rang. It appeared you weren't alone in your early behavior.

A couple of students were already there. But, most obviously, there was a familiar face.

"Kacchan!" You called out. Of course, you already knew the blonde would be in class with you. Despite his so called resistance, he texted you regularly and was quick to pick up your phone call the day you both received your acceptance videos. He refused to walk with you to class this morning claiming that, "You wake up too late."

"Are you excited to be at UA! I can't wait to see what classes are like!" You exclaimed to the blonde.

He scoffed, "It's not going to be anything special, probably."

His ears flushed a bit red. "Liar," You thought, "you're just as excited as everyone here."

"Excuse me!" Someone loudly cleared their throat to get your attention. You looked towards the classmate to show he'd gotten your attention. He was strikingly... blue. His hair, eyes, glasses, even his shoes were blue.

"You should take your feet off of that desk right now!" The boy addressed Bakugou instantly.

You hardly even noted the blonde's odd (and rather dangerous looking) seating position. He almost always sat like that, chair practically tipping over and legs on whatever surface wasn't the floor.

"Huh?" Bakugou responded.

"It's only the first day and you're already scuffing school property, you cretin!" The other boy quickly reprimanded Bakugou.

"Are you kidding me? Your old school put a stick up your ass or..." You attempted to interrupt the rest of whatever insult tirade Bakugou might continue on, "Kacchan, just take your feet off the desk! It's not that big of a deal!"

"No way in hell if this guy says it." Bakugou glared at the blue guy.

"Allow me to start over, then, I'm Tenya Iida from Soumei Private Academy..." The blue guy, Iida, was quickly cut off by Bakugou, "Soumei huh?" You didn't even bother to stop him this time; it wouldn't do any good.
