(Bakugo's POV)

-3 months later-

Time passes inexorably. I visit Kirishima almost every day, it is rare that I miss one day.

It is as if... As if Kirishima missed me if I wasn't there.

Every day, however, he heals more and more. Now all that remains of the serious injuries is a scar. There on the nape where his hair was cut, they grew back in their original color, black, and the contrast they have with the rest of the red hair is interesting I must say!

Every day that passes, I feel his absence.

Every day that passes I tell myself that it is a step closer to his awakening, that he will return soon.

He'll come back to keep me company, put up with me every day, be my best friend. Smiling and making sleazy jokes to get a smile out of me.

That he will come back to care about me, that I can finally apologize to him. I can hug him tight and hear his voice.

"Bakugo!"

Kaminari's high-pitched, worried voice brings me back to reality.

We're in the hospital, Deku and that half and half bastard are in the room too, they came here earlier. At least they came to see him...

To be honest, though,, our entire former class came to see him at least once. Over the past two months, Uraraka and four eyes have also often come here.

At least he managed to win everyone's heart... I think to myself, returning to my thoughts.

Kaminari puts his hand on my shoulder, still staring at me.

"Are you all right? You look pale."he then comments.

I just raise my head and look at him. I can see from miles that the blond is worried.

"Tch... I'm fine..." I exclaim while I keep my eyes eternally fixed on Kirishima.

I'm dead tired. Work and visits to the red head are draining me of every energy I have in my body.

For the first time in my life I'm alwaystired, I go to sleep late and I wake up very early.

It is not mandatory that you have to visit him every day! In case he wakes up, there will be your friends there! You decided to take shifts on purpose!

I was constantly telling myself.

What if they're not there? What if he wakes up on his own?

Plus, I want to be there when he finally opens his eyes! I want to be the first to see his eyes after so long...

I want to fix my eyes in his red irises and lose myself forever in them...

In the meantime, I didn't even have the energy to yell at my comrades or say anything bad.

"Bakugo, go home and rest dude, please!" Kaminari continues, shaking me out of my trance.

"I said I'm fine." I reply.

"As much as Kaminari is a pain in the ass, I have to agree with him, Bakugo. You have to rest, you look really bad." Jirou says bluntly.

"I don't care. Kirishima's health is more important now. I have to be there for him."

"But we set a schedule on purpose, Bakugo! Stop being unreasonable." Mina adds, looking at me, upset.

There I definitely lose my temper.
