My Freak (Bakugou x Reader)

Chapter 9. Ignoring Envy

The halls were filled with laughter and chatters. Giggles and shouts were shared as the lazy breeze was still and the pair who exchanged each other touch were entering a buzzing, hectic crowd.

Bakugou and (Y/n) roamed their way back to the mess hall to meet with with their friends and fill the stomachs with their favourites - spicy ramen and (F/f). However, the vibe wasn't all bubbly and sweet, it was just...silent but comfortable though for the (h/c) girl, she didn't like the quiet one bit.

"So Bakugou!... What are you having for lunch?" I asked very awkwardly... I didn't know what to say!

There are so many students around us that it builds me to overthink the situation but to just walk idly besides the fuming blonde. He didn't answer me but grunt and walked faster away from me like the per usual, making me run a little every time he was pacing faster away from me.

Didn't he want to be seen in public with me?

All the girls in the corner stared at me as we strolled past them, cutting me a dirty, unpleasant look which bought shivers to my skin.

"Did you hear about those two? Apparently they're a couple!"

"Theres no way thats true Aliaa, They literally hate each other."

Well for their information - it's neither of the two. I just lingered closely, letting Bakugou leave me behind just to hear what the girls had to say about us. I mean I was intrigued after all...

"...She literally saved his ass!-"

"-but then the bitch almost killed him. She was going to burn him alive Akari."

"Oooo~ So she possess a fire quirk? Just as strong as Todoroki's!"

"NO! For god sakes she possesses a really rare quirk. They call it the 'Elements' quirk. She can also control the light and dark so there's NO way that Bakugou would like her because she's practically his competition."

'There's no way that Bakugou would like her...'

Those words sent needles tightening my heartstrings, feeling like I couldn't breathe for a spilt second. My mind overflowed with unwanted doubts and questions...

Was this how people view me as?

As Someones rival?

As Someones lover?

As Someone whose a hero?

As Someones competition?

.....

...

..

As Bakugou's toy?...

I couldn't help but think about their words...  Seowoo's tormenting scowls didn't effect me at all, there's always been this rift between us naturally and her hatred for me was abnormal.I just ignored her and focused on my studies and quirk. Though I was friends with Seowoo since kindergarten so I didn't understand why she disliked me so much....

"Look Seowoo! I think (Y/n) heard our conversation..." Akari mumbled alarmingly.

"Aww who cares? Our number one student ignores it. Isn't that right, (f/n) (l/n)!"

The brunette bully playfully sung as she made her way towards me, allowing herself to knit my hair within the tips of her fingers which riled up my blood but I didn't let her get the best of me But I couldn't help but allow myself to be irritated by this gremlin. Why couldn't she leave me alone for once... URG!

I allowed my (h/c) strands to boil up, allowing a fragment of a tangerine radiance to bloom and purposely burn the tips of Seowoo's fingers and to be honest?
