Fire in Her Eyes (Bakugo x OC)

Chapter 22

After school today, everyone was planning on study groups for each other. I needed a lot of help with Math but other than that, I was okay. Momo was top in our class, so I was going to ask her but it seemed like she already had enough people to tutor. I instead went to the only other person that is good in Math, Bakugo. 

"Katsuki, I was wondering if you wanted to tutor me in, Math," I ask politely while sitting on his desk. 

Kirishima also came over to Bakugo. "I need help as well. I'm horrible at Math."

"No figure it out on your own." He snapped.

"Okay, so tomorrow at 2." I look at Kirishima and Bakugo. "We can meet at this cafe near the school." Kirishima then walks away and starts talking to Kaminari. 

"I just said no," Bakugo said louder this time. 

"I'll just go with Kirishima then." 

"Fine, I'll go." He sighed under his breath and looked down, I saw a small smile appear on his face followed with some hint of red. Was he blushing? 

"Are you blushing?" I say a little bit louder than I should. 

"I AM NOT!" 

I simply chuckled under my breath before gathering my stuff and getting ready to leave. I head down to my locker and get all of my stuff. When I'm leaving, Bakugo is leaving too. Well, duh, stupid, it's not like it's the end of the day. I catch up to Bakugo and I stand shoulder to shoulder with him. 

After a little bit of silence, I speak up. "I told Ashido." 

"Why would you do that?" 

"She wanted to know about us. Even though it's not like there is anything going on." 

"What do you mean?" 

"It's just we don't do anything together. We haven't even kissed." 

"Do you want me to kiss you?" 

"W-well, yeah." I look down at the ground. "But I want it to be a surprise, you know." We walk in an awkward silence after that. I feel bad now. I feel like I'm pushing this whole 'soulmate' thing on him and it's just making it weird. Hell, even a couple of months ago, I didn't even know him. I was scared of him. 

"During our internships, I got really worried about you." He spoke up. "I remember being asleep and feeling the faint burning sensation along my wrists. I knew that you were going to get in trouble," He stops on the sidewalk. "I was so worried and then the pain just got worse and worse. So I turned on the TV and turned to the news and there you were." He looks down at the ground again. "I then felt the burning sensation again but in my throat." He walks closer to me and holds me in a tight embrace. "I'm glad that you are okay." 

This is weird, this feels wrong for some reason. Bakugo is acting weird. He doesn't normally act like this. Normally he doesn't even want to come close to me. That's when I noticed that we weren't heading towards Bakugo's house. We were heading the opposite way. 

I quickly pull away from him and I step back a couple of feet. "Who are you?" I get my hands heated up and ready. 

"I'm guessing you figured out that I'm not Bakugo?" 

I look at her, confused. "Well, duh, I wouldn't be asking if I didn't know that you weren't Bakugo."

Bakugo's face and clothes started to melt away and revealed a naked girl. I realized that she was the same girl that was in my apartment the other day. She gives me a wicked smile before running into a nearby alleyway. I run after her and trip in the process. My knees scrape against the concert and go numb for a couple of seconds. After I get up I run to the alleyway but she was already gone. Strange. 

I take off my jacket and I let wings come out. If they were going to get me then they will just have to shoot me down. I fly up higher in the sky than I normally do and I start going at my top speed. I just wanted to go home. Mid-flight I call Bakugo to see if he was okay. He doesn't answer, which then instead makes me do a whole u-turn. 

I fly back to his house and by the time I get there, it's already six o'clock. I land on their front lawn and I walk to their door and I knock. No one answers the door for a minute but I'm relieved to hear yelling from the inside. Specifically, Bakugo yelling at his mother. This brought a smile to my face. The door swings open to reveal a bored-looking Bakugo. 

"You're okay!" I breathe out. 

"Yeah, of course, I'm okay." He said. "What happened to make you think I'm not okay?" 

"A girl disguised as you walked with me out of school." 

"WHAT? I AM GOING TO KILL THAT BITCH!" 

I heard faintly from the inside, his mother says. "Bakugo, no killing people while we are eating dinner. You can do it later." 

I chuckle lightly to myself. He moves away from the door, gesturing me inside. He then closes the door behind me. 

"What did she look like?" 

"She had yellow eyes and two blonde buns in her hair and bangs." I look down at the floor. "Her name is Toga and she is working with the League of Villains." 

"They are still trying to kidnap you?" We headed up to his room. I hadn't really seen the place when I went here before but it looks super nice. 

"No shit sherlock." 

He just grunts in return. We went inside his room and I sat on his bed. His room was surprisingly normal...for a boy like him. I stayed silent and I looked down at my phone. 

"What's wrong?" He mumbled from beside me. 

I tear my eyes away from my phone. "The villains found out that we were soulmates." 

"Did you tell them?" 

"No." 

"Fuck," He stands up and starts passing around his room. "I'm going to kill those bastards the next time I see them." 

"Have you told anyone?" 

His face becomes a light pinkish color. "Kirishima, Kaminari, and Sero found out when I accidentally sweated the makeup off." 

I laugh under my breath, thinking about how much they probably bullied him about. "How much did you get for that?" 

"They still make fun of me." He cracks a small smile. 

I stand up and walk towards him. I look him in the eyes before moving my face towards his. Then I close my eyes and I give him a light peck on his cheek. 

"I'll see you later, alligator," I whisper when I pull away. I walk past him and I open the door and walk out. 'See you later, alligator?' What the fuck, Akira? 

I make my way downstairs and I see Bakugo's parents lounging on the couch. 

"Aren't you a miracle worker? You finally shut him up." 

"It's one of my specialties." I give her a cheeky grin before leaving for my sister's apartment. 

I blush to myself, thinking of how that turned out. I was saving an actual kiss for a good time. Maybe it'll happen soon. I still three years left of high school to get over my crazy high school shenanigans, right?

When I get back to my apartment, the time was 7:30. My sister said that she would be working late tonight. I made some dinner for myself and studied a little bit before going to bed. Although, my sleep didn't come without endless nightmares of what the villains might do to me or people I cared about. 

I had nightmares filled with Bakugo dying because of me. My friends and family dying because of me. I had nightmares of me refusing to join and in turn, everyone I know and love getting tortured to death. 

'Do you think that is what might happen if I don't join?' I ask myself. 'If that's the case, I would risk my life to save them, if it comes down to it.' 

If I had to, 

Do you really think that I could be a villain?
