Chapter 20 - The Carnival

*A/N - Sorry this one is unedited! Haven't had a chance to go through it yet. But I'll get on it tomorrow! :)*

We had just parked up outside the carnival and we're all excited to go in. Mina and I are bouncing in our seats, ready to go. "Oh my goooood, c'mon Kiri... Where did you put those goddamn tickets?" Katsuki says annoyed.

"Ah-ha! Got them, sorry! They were in my phone case.." I roll my eyes and get out of the car with a smile.

Mina came around to my side of the car and took my hand. Katsuki looks at our hands intertwined and gives small frown then walks ahead. I give a small chuckle. He's jealous! "What is it?" Mina asks confused, I nod my head towards Katsuki and lift our hands up. "Ohhhh!" She laughs too.

Kiri catches up to Katsuki and puts his arm around his shoulders. Kat just shrugs it off and continues to walk. Kiri talks to him, or tries to, over enthusiastically and Kat is just nodding his head with a small scowl.

"Hey, Mina... Considering this is meant to be a double date... I think the couples are a bit wrong?" I say.

"Shit... You're right!" She says biting her lip, then smiles at me." Let's catch them up!" She let's go of my hand and runs up behind them, pouncing onto Kiri's back. He catches her legs easily and wraps them around his waist smiling at her over his shoulder. Awwwh, so cute!

Katsuki is walking with his hands in his jacket pockets, staring dead ahead. I run to catch up to them, slide my arm into the gap between his side and his arm, holding on and leaning my head on his arm. He looks down at me, gives a small smirk then kisses me softly on the head.

We get to the ticket booth and hand ours over exchanging them for coins to use for the rides, he stamps each of our hands and lets us pass. "Ooh, where shall we go first?" I ask, looking around in amazement.

"Hey, Mina, do you wanna go check out the sideshows?" Kiri asks Mina, pointing out into the distance.

"Yeah, sure! I'd love to." He holds his hand out to her and shentakes it, looks back at me and gives me a big grin. I smile back and watch as they walk away from us.

"They're so cute, don't you think?" I say happily, looking up at Katsuki.

He just looks at me with a confused, but happy face and just says "Sure. Do you wanna go check out some rides?" I nod my head and we take to the nearest one.

We had just been on one of the rollercoasters, my hair was windswept and all over the place...and Katsuki's hair... Well, lets just say it was a bit more flat than usual. I let out a huge laugh as I see what he looks like. "Ahh piss off, you!" He says as he nudges me and frowns.

"Hey, I'm only joking. You look cute! I've just never seen your hair so flat." I laugh again.

"Yeaah, whatever. You can't say much, look at yours!" He exclaims and laughs.

"I know, i don't even care. I'm just glad I put it up today." He takes my hand and leads me to another area of the park.

"Ooh, where are you taking me now?" I ask, intrigued.

"I was thinking we could get something to eat and then go on the ferris wheel?" I says, pointing to a corn dog and candy floss seller.

"Yeah, sounds good to me. I'll save us a seat, okay?" He nods and walks to the carts.

I sit down at the picnic table and scroll through my phone when a shadow stands over my body. I feel a sudden chill run down my spine.

Looking up I notice someone is sat on the opposite side of the table, their back is to me. They have a very distinct Purple coloured hair, very messy and tall I guess you could say? They had a black leather vest on with a dark green t-shirt underneath. They were leaning against the table with their elbows, which made me notice all the tattoos adorning their arms of a variety of different Chinese designs.

I frown at their back but continue to look at my phone.

"Y/N." My eyes shoot back up, but I say nothing.

The person has now turned themselves around and are facing me.  "They" I can now call a "he" as i recognise him. A shiver runs down my spine. "Shinsou." I squeak out. I clear my throat and scowl at him. "What do you want?" Why now? Why show up now, after all this time?

"Hey, I only wanted to chat." He says with a sly smirk.

"Right. I bet you did." I say with a gulp.

"Are you here alone?" He asks, running his finger along the wood of the table.

"No. No, I'm not alone." I say, defensively.

"Oh? Then who's here?" He asks, leaning back.

"I am. And, who are you?" Katsuki comes back, I let out my breath that I didn't even realise I had been holding in relief. He's holding two corn dogs in a small cardboard tray in one hand and then two sticks of candy floss in the other.

Shinsou raises his eyebrows at his entrance. "Bakugo? Damn, never took you for a carnival kinda guy." He says with a small laugh.

"Yeah, and? What's it to you?" he says as he puts the food down on the table. "Wait, how do you know my name?"

"Just wanted a little catch up with this one. She's been avoiding me. For quite a while now actually." he says, leaning forwars on his arms. "Say, where is it your staying now, again?"

I feel my body tense and grit my jaw. Kat can see my body go rigid, so he places a hand on my shoulder. I bite my lip and shake my head. "No, stop Shinsou. Please, it's over, just leave me alone."

Katsuki's hand squeezes my shoulder gently as he starts to understand the situation.

"What? Am I not allowed to catch up with an old friend?"

"You were never my friend, Shinsou." I say with venom in my voice.

He fakes shocked. "Wow, and to think, I meant so much to you at one point."

"I was dumb, and didn't know any better. Kat, we're going." I stand up, shaking. We pick up our food and start to go.

"Just remember what I said to you before, Y/N." I stop dead in my tracks. He didn't just say what I think he did, did he?

I gulp again and close my eyes. "Please Shinsou. Just leave me alone. I don't want anything to do with you anymore!"

"Ouch. Like I said, just remember what I said to you before." He slides out of his seat and starts to walk away. "I'll leave you two be. Well, for now atleast."
