⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING: SELF-HARM ⚠️
Kirishima's POV
That pit of anxiety in my stomach just will not go away.
Katsuki, my boyfriend, is out grocery shopping, and these times give me time to think.
What if Katsuki is just dating me out of pity for my shitty childhood?
The same thought replays through my head and it never leaves. I'm getting sick of it.
I sulk my way to the knife block and pull out the knife that Katsuki uses to cut strawberries for fruit salads. I take a shaky breath and press the cold blade against my tan arm. After another breath, I swipe down, a stinging feeling where I cut. The pain is addicting. I slice again... and again.. and again, tears flowing down my cheeks like a waterfall.
I don't even hear the front door open.
Bakugou's POV
I open the front door to see my beautiful Eijirou in the kitchen with a dripping red arm and... the strawberry knife?
"E-Eijirou... what the fuck are you doing?!" I ask, my voice cracking.
"Katsuki?! Oh- I was just cutting strawberries and accidentally cut myself..." he chuckles, wiping away tears.
"Uh-huh. You tried to cut invisible strawberries in the middle of the kitchen with seven cuts on your arm?!" I drop the grocery bags and run to his side.
"I... I'm sorry..." he sobs.
"No... no, baby don't be sorry. Sit on the counter and I'll clean you up."
I get the first aid kit and run back to the kitchen, careful not to step in the tiny pool of blood on the floor.
"Eijirou... why would you do this? Whoever made you feel like that- I'll kill them!" I growl.
"If you want me dead then go ahead. I wouldn't mind..." he mutters, but I still hear.
"I would never want you dead, Eijirou- oh my God. What were you thinking?!" I wrap up his arm and wrap him into a tight embrace.
"I-I thought you were dating me out of pity... I don't know... but you and Denki are the only ones who know about my past and... and..." he just bursts out sobbing.
"Kirishima. I would never date anyone out of pity. That's a total bitch move, and I'm not even that rude. Don't be so hard on yourself! I love you and would never leave you. Just please... please don't cut ever again," I wrap him in a hug.
"I-I won't..." he mumbles.
"Good. Hey, I have a surprise for you!" I reach into my pocket and pull out-
"DEAR EVAN HANSEN TICKETS?! ORCHESTRA LEVEL SEATS?! Katsu you're the best!!" he smiles widely and pulls me into a sweet kiss.
"That's what took me so long. I love you."
"I love you too, Katsuki."
