The Hearts That Bind Us (Kiribaku)

chapter 4- training

Kirishima pov:

"I'll take that as a yes!" I exclaimed, smiling wide.

Bakugo just rolled his eyes and kept walking but I knew he was secretly happy. I've only known him a few days but I feel like were already so close- i dont know why he likes me though. Hes amazing; a powerful quirk, unique personality, attra-

"Oi were here, what's up with you?"

I turned my head to see bakugo glaring at me curiously. I blinked a few times, not actually hearing what he said and stared at him.

"Take a picture, itll last longer." He said raising a brow. I stopped staring and my eyes widened.

"Wha-bro that's not-"

"Shut the hell up and come on." He started walking to a corner of the room that was somewhat empty. Everyone else was in groups watching the other students sparr. We sat down on the floor beside eachother while watching tsu and ururaka battling.

"Who do you think will win?" I asked, tearing my eyes away from the girls and looking at my friend.

"Frog face." That was all he said as I just stared at him, waiting for him to elaborate.

"Pink cheeks can only make her get high in the air which isnt much help because froggy can use her tongue to wrap around her anyways." He shrugged as we watched them.

Ururaka tried to get tsu away from her by floating her high in the air but tsu shot out her tongue and wrapped it around ururakas waist. The brown haired girl was shocked and her hands parted, allowing tsu to fall the the floor,landing on her feet and leap at ururaka.

"Okay, tsuyu won. Next pair."

Momo and jirou went up next.

"I think jiriou will win." I said smiling. Bakubro just nodded with a grunt.

"Bro what do you think of soulmates?" I asked leaning my back against the wall.

"Why do you ask?" He said, getting seemingly defensive.

"Well I contacted my soulmate recently and I wanted to know what you thought about it." I shrugged looking at the ground.

After a few minutes of silence bakugo finnally answered.

"I hate them." My head snapped to the boy beside me in shock. "Why should someone love you just because the universe tells them to? It's fake as fuck." He said, resting his head against the wall an staring at the ceiling. "So what about you?"

He tilted his head slightly and looked at me.

"Oh well I dont know really, I would have never contacted my soulmate if it wasnt for mina..." I trailed of in thought.

Bakugo shuffled closer to me and started hugging his legs while watching me.

"Why not?" He asked, with a rather soft look. I ended up staring into his eyes for a little too long...

"Hello? What are you staring at?" He started looking behind him but there was nobody there.

"I- uh..."

"Okay jiriou wins, next pair."

"Oh look that's us, let's go-" I said quickly jumping up to avoid the question.

I ran into the middle of the spacious gym hall and waited. Everyone was standing close to the walls so they didnt get hit with our quirks, that way we didnt have to hold back. Bakugo walked to the opposite side of the room while glaring at me. I smirked and got in a fighting position- as did he.
