The Hearts That Bind Us (Kiribaku)

chapter 5- bakugos house

Kirishima pov:

I was standing outside of bakubros house, my hand raised in the air as I was getting ready to knock. Sweat covered my fist as it shook. Just knock-
No matter how many times I told myself to knock, my nerves got the better of me. Why am I so nervous? It's just bakubro! I groaned and took a deep breathe before pushing my hand against the door. Crap that was a little too loud-

The door swung open and a person stood there who I mistook for bakugo at first. Wait- why does he look more feminine...? I stood staring at bakugo with a confused face.

"Can I help you?" His voice was alot higher too.

"Uh....bakugo?" I asked narrowing my eyes. The person just chuckled while waving their hand around in a manner saying 'no'.

"Oh honey no, I'm mitsuki. His mother." She smiled warmly. Realisation struck and my mouth made an 'O'.

"Wow ms bakugo you look so much alike!" I said smiling at her.

"Darling call me MITSUKI, anyways you must be the brats friend." She stepped to the side to let me in.

I walked into the house to a sweet smell of cookies and caramel. There were a few burn Mark's on the edges of the furniture so I could only assume that bakubro was at fault.

"Go on up, second room to the left." She pointed to a staircase before walking away to what I presumed was the kitchen.

"Thank you!" I called out as I walked up the stairs. With each step I took, a different creak erupted and broke the silence. Littered across the walls were picture frames with family photos.

I examined each one with a soft smile. Bakugo was a cute kid. He would probably murder me if he heard me say that. I made it to the top of the stairs and walked down the hallway to where ms bakugo told me to go. I heard music muffled by the door as I stepped closer. I knocked but the only response I got was of the blaring music.

"I'm coming in..." i said as i hesitantly turned the doorknob and poked my head in. I think I forgot how to breathe-

Bakugo stood there with a towel wrapped around his waist, wet hair dripping onto his shoulders and a smirk on his face. He was messing with some clothes in a draw and nodding his head in time to the music. I stood there, my mouth hanging open but he didnt seem to notice. Then he started singing along with the music quietly.

"You fight so dirty but you love so sweet~" I heard him mumble as he picked up some shorts. He continued singing as he started to mess with the towel draped over his waist.

Oh GOD- i need to say something! Uh-

"AH- UH B-BAKUGO UH HI!" I shouted with wide eyes and fumbling with my hands. Bakugo turned his head and stared at me with wide eyes.

Oh fuck someone kill me please...

"How long have you been standing there...?" He asked as he turned the music down a little. I stared at him before laughing nervously and stumbling around a bit.

"Oh- well I uh- I knocked B-but you didnt hear me so I came in but I didnt expect you to be fucking half naked! Ah shit I'm so sorry, I'll leave. I wont come to the beach bye!" I blurted out really quickly as I turned on my heel and tried to escape this embarrassing mess.

I was stopped by a hand grabbing my wrist. I froze. This is going to be soooo embarrassing... I hesitantly turned around and looked at my best friend. I felt my face heat up at the sight. There was water dripping down his neck and his hair wasnt spiking up, it was down. His bright red eyes glared into my dull ones.

"Its fine, kirishima. Come on I'll get the shorts for you." He said as he dragged me back into his room. "Anyways, you have to come cause I'm not fucking going with just those idiots." He rolled his eyes as he gently let go of my wrist and handed me some shorts and a shirt.

"T-thanks bro!" WHY AM I STUTTERING?! I must seem so pathetic right now.

I internally slapped myself but flashed a smile to my friend.

"You dont need to keep faking it, you know."

I stared at him confused as he just looked at me knowingly.

"The smile. I can tell it's fake, shitty hair." My face dropped and I sighed.

"Sorry bakugo, I'll make it look more believable."

"No it looks believable but I can just tell." He shrugged while leading me to a bathroom, the towel on his hips showing his V-line. "You dont need to fake it around me. It's fine."

I stares at him as he stopped infront of a room.

"Here. Change in there. Oh and this time, knock before you come into my room." He said smirking. It felt like my face had been set on fire as I went wide eyed and fast walked into the bathroom. I heard a laugh on the other side of the door and I pouted while poking at the area where my heart was. What's wrong with you today? I felt the heavy thumping beneath my finger.

After a few seconds of being dumb, I finally changed into the red shorts and black vest. I kept on my red crocs despite how much bakugo would threaten to burn them. I left the bathroom with my clothes in my hand and knocked on bakugos door.

The door opened and bakugo stood there with an orange vest and black shorts which had an explosion on the bottom.

"Where do I put these?" I asked, gesturing to the clothes in my hand.

"Just put them there." Bakugo pointed to a table at the far end of his room. I quickly walked over and neatly put the clothes there before returning to my friend as we walked out the house.

We walked together through the streets before catching a glimpse of pink, yellow and purple.

"That's them."
