You Don't Have To Face It Alone [Abused!BakugoxTodoroki]

Nine- Backpack

Summary of last chapter since it's been a bit:
Present Mic's class ended and Kirishima dragged Bakugo to his room. He made Bakugo snuggle with him and they fell asleep together.

Now:
I woke up and groaned, feeling slightly stiff. I rubbed my eyes with the palm of my hand and looked over at the clock Ei has on top of his dresser. It was almost six thirty in the evening, and I was hungry as all hell. I looked over at Ei and internally smiled when I saw he was fast asleep. I moved around him and got off of the bed successfully.

As I slowly walked to the door, I froze when I heard him shifting around a bit. I shakily turned my head and relaxed when I saw he had filled in the space I was just in. I quietly opened the door and closed it, walking to the stairs.

I climbed down the staircase and when I got to the door, I got in my usual slouch and bitchy attitude. I pushed the door open and glared at anyone who looked in my direction.

I got to the kitchen and opened the cabinet next to the fridge. I saw what I wanted and went to reach for it, only for me to be too damn short to reach it. I grunted as I went on my tippy toes to get it, but still stopped short.

I huffed and slouched against the counter, looking around the common room for anyone taller than me who could get it.

"Icyhot, Tape, or Four Eyes. Can one of you get the granola bar for me? I can't fuckin reach it." I asked, watching as Sero started to smile devilishly at me.

"No short jokes!" I yelled pointing at him with one hand and explosions forming in the other.

"Bakugo! We're not allowed to use our quirks in the dorms!" Iida yelled, chopping his hands in the air.

I rolled my eyes and looked towards Icyhot, who was standing up from the couch.

"Are you gonna tease me, ridicule me, or help me?" I questioned as I stared at him.

"I'll tease you while I help you." He said with a sly smirk as he made his way to me.

"Then don't fucking help me." I said as I turned back to reaching for the granola bar.

I started to climb onto the countertop when Icyhot quickly grabbed the bar and held it tightly. I groaned and turned to him, plopping down onto the counter.

"Are you gonna give it to me? Or am I gonna have to find something else to eat?" I questioned as I raised an eyebrow at him.

"I'll give it to you. When you ask nicely." He said as he moved his hand behind his back.

"Guess I'm finding something else to eat then." I said as I hopped down from the counters and opened the fridge.

I grabbed a yogurt and closed the fridge, turning to get a spoon only to have the yogurt snatched out of my hand.

"The hell Icyhot! Just let me eat! I'm fuckin hungry!" I shouted, reaching for both the bar and yogurt.

"Ask nicely. Then you'll get both." He said as he held them up in the air.

"So this is what you meant when you said tease huh?" I said as I puffed out a big breath of air.

He smirked and nodded his head. I looked at how high up the food was and started jumping up for it. He held it up higher and I angry pouted.

"Come on Icyhot. I'm fuckin hungry. I didn't have breakfast or lunch, can you just give it to me already?" I said while I kept bouncing trying to grab it.

I didn't notice him look at me with concern as he lowered his arms. I grabbed them and got a spoon from the utensil drawer. I jumped back onto the counter and started eating the yogurt first.

When I was about halfway through Todoroki started walking towards me.

"Why didn't you have breakfast or lunch?" I tensed at the question, I didn't mean to tell him that.

"Oh. I, um. I wasn't fucking hungry." I said as I gained the snarkiness and confidence I lacked in the beginning of my sentence.

"You sure? You don't sound very sure of yourself?" He questioned as he watched me eat.

"Yeah. Yeah I'm sure." I said as I looked away from him.

Todoroki grabbed my forearm and pulled me off of the counter. He pulled me through the door for the stairs and pinned me against the wall under the stairs.

"Tell me the truth. Did Kirishima make you not eat?" He asked sternly. I avoided eye contact until he grabbed my chin and gently made me look at him.

"Please tell me. Has he hit you or told you to not eat since I left?" He asked again. My lip started to quiver but I refused to let myself cry.

I slowly nodded as Todoroki let go of my wrists and pulled me in for a hug.

"Why do you stay with him? After everything he's done?" He said as he rubbed the small of my back.

"I love him. I love him with everything I have. I can't help it. Even as he was hitting me. I couldn't help but forgive him. He's my everything. Without him I'd have nothing." I said as I buried my face in his neck.

"No. That's where you're wrong. You'll still have so much. You'll have me. You'll have your whole squad. You'll have the entire class. You'll have your parents." He said comforting me.

"My parents don't give a shit about me." I said plainly and slightly muffled by his neck. I could feel him look at me, but I kept my face in his neck.

"Let's go back so you can eat. Oh, also. When you left class today you forgot your bag, so I brought it with me. It's in my room though cause I wasn't sure when I'd see you."

"Alright. Let's go. I'm fuckin hungry." I said as I left the comfort of his hold and headed for the door.

I opened the door and went straight for my food. I hopped back onto the counter and continued eating my yogurt. Todoroki watched as I ate, which was kinda weird, but I wasn't gonna bring it up.

Once I finished the yogurt and granola bar, I hopped down and threw away the garbage and put the spoon in the sink.

I looked up at Todoroki and nodded. Pretty much just telling him that I'm ready to get my bag. I'm assuming he understood cause he nodded back and we made our way to the elevator.
