Something New

how it all began part 2

Thank you all for being so patient with me I really appreciate it <3

It was two nights after the incident, bakugou lay awake that night, no matter how hard he tried he could not sleep. He rolled on his side and looked at the clock again. Two thirty am the clock read. Why was he having trouble sleeping? He rolled back facing up at the ceiling. His phone chimed. He thought to himself who could possibly be texting at this hour? It was from an unknown number “hey, you said I could text whenever so, I’m texting now. Sorry to bother you this late.” He stared at the phone remembering the other night. It was that boy. On the other side of the phone, there sat a boy with two different halves of hair, left side red right side white. One eye grey one eye blue. Over his left eye, a scar, rest there from when he was little. he sat up against the wall blood dripping down his cheek and hands. He had gotten in a fight with his dad. Blood ad tears surrounding him. He felt weak holding the phone up, this is stupid he thought. Why would he reply this late? Why- his thoughts were cut off by a buzz from his phone. He stared at the screen. “hey, no its fine, I remember what I said. why are you up so late?”

Bakugou, now sitting up in bed, waited anxiously for the boy to text back. He didn’t know if the boy was in trouble or what. “couldn’t sleep.” The message read. Bakugou didn’t know how to reply to that. “me either.” Was all he could think of. “wanna meet up somewhere? Café place is open.” The boy wrote. Bakugou looked at his phone andhi guys and gals and non binary pals thought. “now? I mean, yeah sure ill get dressed.” He set his phone down and pulled a hoodie over his shirt. His sweatpants still on him, he put on socks and his shoes, grabbed his phone and read the message. “see you there.” He grabbed the house keys and left. His parents were on business trip for about nine years, they had just left the morning before. So he had the house to himself for the next 9 years. He walked to the café shop which was indeed open. “why the fuck is a café shop open 24/7?’ he thought. He was there first, he sat by a window where he could be seen if the boy showed up. If, he showed up.

A few minutes passed and the door opened and rang the little bell above the door. Bakugou looked up to see a beaten up boy. “oh my god what the fuck?!” he said going up to the boy looking at his face and hands. He looked at the lady behind the counter, “excuse me do you have a restroom?” he asked and the lady pointed to a one bathroom down the hall. He grabbed the boy’s arm careful not to hurt him and dragged him in the restroom. He closed the door and gestured for the boy to sit on the seat. The boy did as he said and bakugou rushed to grab napkins and wet it with water and soap. “hold still.” He cleaned the wounds of the boy which were already closed thankfully.

They left the restroom and sat down at the table. “you didn’t have to help me.” The boy spoke, “and you could’ve refused but you didn’t.” the boy smiled shyly. “I’m Shoto. Shoto Todoroki.” That’s how bakugou knew him, he was the son of endeavor. “katsuki bakugou.” “I remember.” Todoroki said.

A little while later they ordered their drinks and sat there talking about one another. They each applied for the school UA which lead to knowing they were around the same age as one another.  The clock read 5:04 am. They had been there since 2:47 am. They soon said their goodbyes and headed back home.

They continued talking everyday till it was time for the entrance exam. Bakugou looked around for Todoroki but he was no where to be found. “YO bakugou! Who are you looking for?” a spikey red-haired boy asked. He rolled his eyes, “have you seen a boy with two different halves of hair?” the red-haired boy thought, “you mean Todoroki? He doesn’t have to do the entrance exam because he’s rich because of his dad.” ‘oh’ he thought.

A few weeks passed and school had started with its normal classes. Regular assignments and training, tests, everything. One day bakugou stayed home sick usually he would never miss but he was really sick. Iida had said “he really slack off in class and he has a bad temper if he cant handle following rules then hes not cut out to be a hero, especially with his quirk, explosions? For all we know he could become a villain!”

“enough! You’re always judging a student based off their actions! Bakugou is just a little stronger than you and a little better than you. You are the one who needs to calm their emotions because with THAT attitude of yours you will find yourself hurt, on the ground, bleeding.”

“Shoto Todoroki! Did I just hear you threaten tenya? Detention today and tomorrow. NOW!”

Todoroki got up and grabbed his bag storming out the classroom. ‘what did I do? I shouldn’t have done that. Damnit’ The next day Todoroki was in detention during school hours. Bakugou didn’t know where Todoroki was all he knows was that he didn’t even hurt deku or anyone or thing but still got sent out the class anyway.  He walked down the hallway all the way to the detention hall.

Silence filled the hallways, not a sound was made. Nothing but a knock.
A knock at the door.
