kirishima POV

finally comes the chance of changing my life.
in front of me, was UA high.

i gently touch my head and wince at the pain, but relief soon floods over realising it was the last beating for a while.

nobody seems to want to yell at me, or drag me into a corner and beat me for no reason here...
i breathe a sigh of relief.

i'm starting fresh.

"move it, shitty hair." a voice from behind orders.

i flinch, covering my face with my arms out of habit.
"i'm sorry..." i answer quietly.

i braced myself for an attack, but by the time i decided to open my eyes, he was gone.

"thank god..." i mumble.

what am i doing...
this is the opposite of manly.

bakugo POV

i don't want to talk to anyone.
i don't want to start crying in front of anyone again.
i don't want to be seen as weak.

//flashback//

"katsuki bakugo is crying!"

i look around in horror, as i see everyone's eyes on me.
my chest tightens.
stop...
stop looking at me!

"katsuki, what's wrong?" akio asks, his worried eyes glare into my soul.
my hand is still grabbed tightly onto his shirt.
stop worrying about me...

"huh? why is bakugo crying? i thought he was one of the tough ones?" someone in the crowd mumbles.

shut up!
shut up...

i have to make sure no one will want to talk to me. to do that, i have to be a bully.
i've been like that towards deku since we were kids... it can't be too hard.

"fuck...why does deku come into my head now..." i stop walking and try to breathe.

if you cry you're done for.
keep it in.
keep it in.
keep it...

"ka...tsuki?" a quiet voice calls my name.

i don't dare to turn around.
if they know me, i can't let them see me like this...
i can't... let... them...
my vision goes blurry, as i fall to my knees.

"katsuki!" the voice comes running closer.

breathe...

"katsuki... are you alright?" his shaky voice asks.
as my vision starts to go black, i see a familiar face, full of worry looking down at me.
i somehow feel extremely relieved.

"kiri...shima..." i whisper.

black.

kirishima POV

"katsuki!" i yell for the fifth time, but still no response.
his eyes are closed, tears still falling from them.
he must have had an anxiety attack and passed out.
i sigh, and hold him on my arms.

"so you haven't gotten better, huh?" i mutter sadly.

i try to ignore all the curious and concerning looks from other students, as i carry katsuki to the nurses office.
at first, the nurse recovery girl was shocked to see that a student had passed out on the first day of school, but when i explained katsuki's condition, she seemed to understand.

i sit on the floor beside katsuki laying down in the bed.
i lay my head against the edge of the bed, gazing at his peaceful sleeping face i thought i would never see again.

"i hope you start to get better soon..." i whisper, stroking his soft hair.

i feel recovery girl staring down at me.
i spin around to look at her.

she jolts, then hesitates before asking,
"young man, where did you get those bruises?"

i freeze.

shit...

"oh, um i do boxing, and i had a match last weekend." i hold my breath, hoping she'll believe it.

"oh, alright."

thank god...
i hear a groan behind me.

"kiri..."

i quickly spin back around, to see that katsuki's perfect eyes are open.

"katsuki... are you okay?" i murmur worriedly.

he sits up straight.
"yeah... i'm fine."

he then makes eye contact with me, and smiles.

"i thought i would never see you again, idiot..."
