Bakugou was normally pretty good about taking care of his body. He went to bed in a timely manner, always got exercise in, and ate well, but recently something has been off with him. He has been caught training well into the night and is no longer seen at breakfast. Insead the blond firecracker is up in the library studying or training even more. He has also begun working on his costume at all hours of the night, almost triggering an explosion while increasing the blast area.
It became prominent that something was up when Bakugou fell asleep during class. It wasn’t strange for him to nod off here and there if the lesson was extremely mundane, or he would just stare out the window. However they were going over quirk applications on the different sections of the training fields. Pointing out where each student would be most effective and why. This would have intrigued bakugou, given him more ways to train, but he was asleep. He looked as tired as aizawa when he came into class, and Todoroki became worried for some reason.
Later that day Bakugou was training as the sun was setting and Shoto was walking the grounds, looking for the blond. When he got to the training area he saw bakugou running a course he had set up. He was tired and his movements were more sluggish then normal. Shoto didn’t want to interfere until he was done, but when the blond slipped and fell to the ground Todoroki stepped in. “You're done for the day. We still have curfew.” Shotot says, trying to not sound worried.
“What the fuck are you talking about, Icy-Hot!?” Bakugou says, standing up annoyed. “Why the fuck are you even out here?!”
“You're exhausted, you need to relax and go to bed. I’m only out here because I heard your explosions. I can hear you from my dorms.” SHoto says, moving closer to Todoroki.
Bakugou sighed and just rolled his eyes. “Just shut up and put your earbuds in! I’m training to be number 1 idiot, so I’m not gonna listen to you and stop so you can get ahead.” Bakugou says, brushing off more dirt from his training outfit. Bakugou had turned his back to the half and half boy, not able to face him. Truly he was tired, but he could bring himself to taking a break, if Todorki grabbed him, or picked him up he wouldn’t fight him. He couldn't. He was so exhausted from studying, class, and training.
Shoo sighed and put a hand on bakugou’s shoulder. “I’m not here right now because i’m worried about you outpacing me. I just saw you fall from a pretty easy obstacle course after only one minute of running it. You need to rest or you're not gonna get stronger.” Shoto says, feeling bakugou relax under his hand.
Ketsuki knew Shoto was right, and damn it he was about to pass out right there. The blond's vision was going blurry and his legs became weak under him. Bakugou began to sway before collapsing in Todoroki arms. Bakugou picked bakugou up, surprisingly easily and looked around. No one else was there, but bakugou’s bag was open on a bench nearby. Bakugou went to grab it and threw it over his shoulder, still carrying the blond. Shoto started to walk to the recovery girl before he realized the time. She was probably gone by now. He sighed as he walked by her office and saw that it was empty. Shoto didn’t know where bakugou’s dorm was so he carried the blond up to the third floor to his dorm room.
When they got there Shoto layed Bakugou down on the bed and yawned. He placed Katsuki’s bag near the door and took off the blond's blue training top. Under the sleeping boy was wearing a black tank top and shoto felt bakugou’s cold frame. Shoto pulled the covers over the blond, watching the boy move and nuzzle into the covers. Shoto smiled and went to finnish some work he had left over from class.
After a while Bakugou stirred awake before shooting up. “Where-Who-Icy-Hot!?” bakugou yells, panting as he took in his surroundings.
“You collapse and the recovery girl isn’t here. I don’t know where your dorm is so I brought you to mine. I also put your bag by the door.” Shoto says, closing his book and looking over at the blond, who is now calming down.
“Shit, now I have to find my way to my dorm.” Bakugou says, starting to get up.
“No, lay back down.” shoto says, sternly.
“What? Why would I lay back down?” bakugou asks. “Shit-I really need a shower.” bakugou says
“You still need to rest, and i want to make sure you don’t collapse on the stairs or while getting yourself a glass of water.” Shoto says. “So lay back down. You take my bed, and I'll take the floor.” Shoto says standing from his desk and walking over to his dresser.
“That’s beyond unhealthy for your spine, you trying to break your damn back?” bakugou says, laying back in bed. Annoyed.
“Well, I don’t have two bed, and I’m not gonna make you share a bed with me. So my back can hurt for a day or two if you get a good night's rest.” Shoto says, reaching to grab a pair of grey sweat pants.
“Just share the bed idiot. I don’t need you in pain tomorrow and blaming me.” Bakugou says as Shoto begins to change. Bakugou blushes lightly and looks away from the duo haired boy, embarrassed. When Shoto was done changing he crawled into bed, pushing Bakugou closer to the wall. Bakugou didn’t mind, it felt more like Shoto was trying to protect him.
“Are you ok?” Shoto asks, keeping his distance from Bakugou.
“I’m fine you idiot.” bakugou says, almost completely against the wall.
“Do you want to talk? You’ve really been pushing yourself recently.” Todoroki says, really worried.
“Like I said before I am working to become the number 1 hero, so I’m pushing myself to be better. Just because you don’t-” Bakugou begins to explain before Todoroki cuts him off.
“That’s more than pushing yourself, you collapsed, and you're surprisingly light.. You just need to take care of yourself more, but you won’t.” Shoto says, concerned.
“I take care of myself idiot. Just leave me alone about-” bakugou begins, almost blowing up the sheets.
“I’m not gonna go tell anyone. Please talk to me about this.” Shoto says, moving just slightly closer to Bakugou.
“My old hag threatened to take me out of the UA if I didn't get my grades up. I let one of my tests slip. She said I had a month to get back to an A in all my courses.” Bakugou says, leaning back into Shoto’s chest. Bakugou was half asleep and Todoroki felt bad for wrapping his arm around the blond’s waist, since he couldn’t rationly tell him to go away.
“Pushing yourself to exhaustion and passing out in class isn’t gonna help. Just study more if you want and take more notes in class. If you just keep going at this rate you won’t make it a month.” Shoto says pull Bakugou closer. “If you really, truly need help, I’m always happy to help you study or train.” Shoto says, feeling the blond almost pass out before shaking his head, to keep himself awake.
“I was gonna study tomorrow during lunch, I’ll drag you with me.” Bakugou says. “And unless you are gonna actually go all out on me then what’s the point of training with you.” Bakugou says, clearly still annoyed from the training festival.
“If there aren’t a lot of people around I'll go all out. You know I can’t control my flames yet, and you're in a weakened state, so tomorrow I won’t but I will later.” Todoroki says, rubbing his thumbs over bakugou’s waist to relax him.
It seemed to work with the blond as he struggled even more to just keep himself awake. “I’m not-” bakugou begins before yawning and nuzzling into Todoroki’s warmth more. “I’m not weak Icy-Hot...Just study with me and train with me...I promise I won’t break.” Bakugou says falling asleep before he could hear Todrooki's response.
Todoroki moved to whisper in bakugou’s ear. “I will study with you, I will train with you, and I will help take care of you. You will not have to worry about anything, and I will always be here to care for you. My sweet little explosion.” Todoroki says, gently kissing the blond’s forehead.
