"Hot damn, this place is huge!" You exclaimed, eyes filled with wonder as you stared up at the gigantic dorm building. Heights Alliance.

"We're lucky kids, that's for sure!" Mina shouted, pumping a fist into the air and beaming. You nudged Bakugo, grinning.

"Whaddya think, Katsuki, you like it?"

"It's alright, I guess." Bakugo scoffed, staring up distastefully at the large structure. "It's boring."

"Well, we have our own rooms, so we can spice it up!" You chirped, eyes sparkling. "I think you're gonna like mine!"

"Whatever."

Suddenly, your eyes widened and your eyebrows furrowed, face flushing. "I gotta peeee..."

Bakugo turned red, kicking your leg harshly. "Then go find the restrooms, dumbass!"

"M-Mr. Aizawa, can I go to my dorm now? I gotta pee...really badly..."

"Fine." Aizawa sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Your dorm is in 4F, second room to the right."

You nodded gratefully at your teacher, rushing off to your dorm room. You didn't even bother to see how your room turned out, you merely dashed into the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind you. After a couple minutes, you exited the bathroom, wiping your hands off.

"Man, I feel so much better!" You sighed, starting to glance around the room. Your eyes lit up and you smiled, starting to unpack.

"If anyone visits my room, they're gonna love it, I just know it!"

  Suddenly, you heard a bang on your door and jumped, dropping an empty box. You walked over to the door, hesitantly opening it.

  "Uh, hi?"

  "Open up, dumbass, I'm bored." Bakugo grumbled, resting his arm on the doorframe. You blushed, nodding and opening the door all the way. Bakugo stepped inside your room, wrinkling his nose. "It's so fucking bland, I might puke."

  "I'm not done decorating yet! I just started!" You protested, pouting. Bakugo snorted, grabbing a box and sitting down on your bed. He held it up to his ear, shaking it.

  "What the fuck is even in these boxes? Snails?"

  "Uh, no! All my snails are in that glass box over there!" You pointed to a glass tank that was resting on a desk in the corner of the room, the bottom crawling with a variety of snails. Bakugo scoffed, opening the box and taking out what appeared to be a string of fairy lights.

  "I'm helping you decorate, since you obviously don't know how to fucking do shit."

  "I know how to decorate!" You huffed, grabbing another box and ripping the tape off. Bakugo raised a brow, gesturing at the whole room.

  "Yeah, sure you do."

  You laughed, rolling your eyes and playfully pushing him. "Fine, help me then."

  You and Bakugo started to unpack, occasionally teasing each other and messing around. After a while, you had finally finished your room, and flopped onto the bed, admiring your work.

  "We did a pretty good job, not gonna lie." You said, looking over at Bakugo as he set a potted cactus onto the desk next to the snails. He turned around, raising a brow and smirking.

  "You mean I did a damn good job. You were shitty."

  "Hey! Uncalled for!" You laughed, rolling onto your side to see him better. "Katsuki?"

  "What, dumbass?"

  "Can I play with your hair?"

  Bakugo spluttered, eyes widening. "Fucking excuse me?"

  "I wanna play with your hair!" You giggled, making a grabbing motion with your hands. "Pleaseeee? Since it's the start of a new semester?"

  Bakugo grumbled, contemplating whether he should let you, or he shouldn't. "What do I get out of it?"

  "You can play with my hair too, if you want!" You chirped, holding up a lock of your H/C hair as you sat up and scooted over to the edge of the bed, kicking your feet. Bakugo sighed, glaring at you as he started to walk over.

  "Five minutes. That's all you get. If you pull any weird shit I'll kill you."

  "Okay, okay!" You chuckled, watching Bakugo excitedly as he sat down on the wooden flooring in front of you. He leaned his head back, touching your knees.

  "Hurry up."

  Heat pooled to your cheeks as you grinned stupidly, reaching down and softly brushing your fingers against his spiky blonde hair. You gasped, surprised.

  "It's so soft!"

  Bakugo turned red, clicking his tongue. "Shut up."

  You giggled in delight, entangling your fingers in his silky blonde locks. You combed through his hair, softly caressing it. Your heart thumped as you tried to braid his hair, letting the spiky tufts fall back down. Suddenly, he tilted his head back, so you were now staring wide-eyed into his crimson orbs. You studied every feature of his, taking note of his flawless skin and vibrant eyes. You blushed and continued to run your fingers through his hair, making him close his eyes and part his lips.

  "Feels good."

  Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door, making you both jump. You coughed and pulled your fingers out of his hair, turning scarlet as you walked towards the door, opening it. Mina and your other classmates stood there, grinning.

  "Hiya, Y/N! We're having a competition to see who's got the best decorated room, so can we take a peek at yours? You're the final stop for today!"

  You beamed, nodding your head. "Yeah, for sure!"

  You turned around, then stopped in your tracks, confused. Bakugo was gone.

  "Whoa!! So cute!" Mina squealed, hugging you from behind and lifting you up. "As expected from our resident softie!"

  "I like the snail beanbag." Todoroki said, making your head turn and your eyes sparkle.

  "I know, right?! It's my favorite part of my room! Well, besides my snail tank."

  "Dildo..." Mineta said as he stared at the small cactus in your room, drooling. "What does L/N do with that cactus?"

  "Ew, Mineta, gross! I take care of it, that's what I do!" You laughed, shaking your head. Mina put you down, grinning.

  "Well, it's safe to say that you and Sato have the best rooms here! We'll see ya tomorrow, Y/N!"

  "Goodnight, L/N!" Everyone shouted, and you beamed, waving.

  "Night, y'all!"

  You shut the door as everyone left, sighing and turning around. Bakugo crawled out from underneath the bed, grumbling. Your eyes widened and you burst out laughing.

  "There you are! I thought you left!"

  "I wasn't about to let those fucking idiots catch me here and bug me. Plus, they would've assumed weird shit." Bakugo scoffed, dusting himself off. "Anyways, I'm going to bed. Night."

  You watched Bakugo as he left your room, grinning widely and blushing.

  "Night, Katsuki!"
