Chapter 16

"Your flame is usually fucking blue. Why the hell is it green?" Bakugou asks, with a confused look on his face. "Hello?"

I didn't answer, admiring the flame. The colour green. I have never seen my flames turn that colour.

He flicks my forehead, making me come back to reality. "What the hell is wrong with you?"

"Sorry. I, uh, nothing. Wait, why the hell are you helping? You're mad at me...aren't you?"

"Why the hell would I be mad at you dumbass?" He backs up, letting me jump off the sink.

"You seemed angry. Anyway, I'm sorry for saying what I said. I shouldn't tell you how to feel. Also, thanks for helping and I'm sorry if I'm being a bother. I'll be on my way..."

"What the hell are you on about? I don't care what the hell you say to me that regards my feelings. That's my fucking choice. Also, if you bothered me, I wouldn't have fucking helped you dumbass. I helped you because I wanted to. I know that's surprising to get through your tiny head but it's true." Bakugou looked away, grabbing my bag and shoving it to me. "Just fucking get to class."

"Does Bakugou actually care about someone?" I tease.

"Don't make me regret my choice in helping you. I could've let you fucking burn to death," Bakugou rolls his eyes.

I laugh and walk next to him. "My flame is different colours based on my mood."

He looks at me confused. "Okay and? What are the moods for the colours?"

I shrug. "I just know blue is angry, red is neutral, and yellow is happiness. I dont know what green means." I look away and start thinking. Why was it green anyway?

Bakugou laughs. "So you're always angry?"

I shake my head. "Only when you're around," I smirk. He gives me a look."I'm joking. Calm down. Yeah sure, its always blue when you're around but its not just you. Let's just say that."

"Who else pisses you off more than me?" Bakugou laughs.

I roll my eyes. "Surprisingly someone else but they aren't important. At least not enough to talk about." I say, looking away from Bakugou.

"So they're close to you. Makes sense."

I look at him again and shake me head. "No. He isn't."

"He? Is he a boyfriend?" Bakugou...teases? Is that teasing?

"No. That would be illegal." I sigh. I give up. Hes persistent and he wont leave me alone unless I tell him. "Why would you want to know anyway?"

"Cause your quirk is shit and I want to know who pisses you off more than I can." Bakugou stops walking.

"Fine. My brother. Hes an ass just like you." I stop walking and look at him with my arms crossed.

"If hes just like me, then why does he piss you off more?"

"Because you don't know what completely hurts me. He does and he uses it against me," I squint my eyes at him. "And even though you're an asshole, you wouldn't do what he does."

"What hurts you?" Bakugou sighs and leans against a wall.

"No." I start walking back to class.

"Hey!" He grabs my wrist and I glare at him.

"What the hell do you want?" I ask, annoyed. I glance at my wrist and clench my jaw.

"We were talking. You're not leaving," he demands.

"We have to get to fucking class," I say, trying to pull my wrist away from his grasp. 

I look up at him and huff lightly. He looks annoyed, but let's be honest. When does he not?

"Who said we do?"

"The school," I say lowly. "I'm not getting in trouble the second day. I've already been late twice."

I look away and then I thought about it. He was in class when I asked to use the restroom so I can deal with my burns. Why was he outside the restroom door? Was he...spying on me? I didn't expect him to be an asshole and a creep, but the more you learn I guess.

"What the hell are you thinking about? You're making ugly ass faces."

"Thanks. My self esteem shot up," I say, making him roll his eyes. "Why were you in front of the girl's bathroom anyway?"

"The boy's bathroom is right next to it dumbass," he spats, staring at my eyes.

"No it's not. Its down the hall on the complete other side for a specific reason. Now, why were you following me?"

"Don't put scenarios in your head stupid. I was walking the long way so I could get out of class." 

I sigh. He thinks he's smart but he's not. "There isn't a long way Ashy. Just admit that you were following me."

"Why would I follow someone like you?" He growls a bit.

"Maybe because you're interested in me."

Wait, why did I say that?

"No, not even close but nice try."

"Then why were you following me Bakugou?"

"I wasn't damnit! Go to fucking class." He seemed tired of me and I laughed.

I smile and nod, walking away. I throw a small fire ball at his forehead. "Follow me whenever you want." I laugh, walking away.
