****NSFW Lemon Warning*****



 We got back to the dorm. I unlocked the door and let ourselves in. Locking the door behind us, I turn to see Alfonso and Elric cuddling on the couch? All the lights were off and they were watching some action movie. Bakugo didn't seem to care but I tilted my head, "Has this always been a thing?" Both of them jolted and parted like the red sea. Elric hung over the far arm of the couch and threw on his steampunk goggles, hiding most of his face. Alfonso laughed nervously as he tried playing it cool, "No-Nozomi! Bakugo! You guys made it back okay! Thank goodness." I giggled at their demeanor, completely unlike them. Bakugo shrugged and started heading back to my room, "Whatever, you guys do you." I sweated a little and bowed a light apology, "Sorry to interrupt." I waved a goodbye as I followed Bakugo, "Enjoy your movie night!" I stopped before vanishing behind the corner, "Oh and- congrats." I gave the blushing couple a signature cheeky grin and darted to my room, afraid Alfonso might actually come after me.

I swiftly closed the door behind me and locked it. I turned to see Bakugo sitting on the bed giving me a weird look, as if I was disturbed. I walk over and playfully punch his shoulder, "What?" He shrugged, "Why are you such a dumbass?" I gave an irritated grin, "You want to talk, dumbass?" He scoffed and pulled me in with his arms around my waist. He laid his head against my stomach. I patted his head, slightly concerned, "Are you tired?" He shook his head, slightly tickling me. I combed through his hair, surprised with how soft it was. I asked, "Then what's up? You seem quiet." I then felt his hands roam. I laughed, "Oh no! Don't even think about it!" He grabbed at my ass roughly, not responding. I tried pushing away, "Stop playing around!" He growled, "Don't-" I froze, "Bakugo?" He let go of my ass and started rubbing my thighs. Starting to get impatient, I scooped him by the chin to force him to look at me. I leveled with him, he seemed to be pouting. I tried to draw out my patience, "Ka-chan. Talk to me." He met my gaze and continued to pout, "I don't know.. I just saw them being affectionate and so I wanted to share that with you.." My heart softened, "Ka-chan-" He pulled his chin out of my hand and looked away, "That probably sounds lame."

I pushed him down and crawled on top of him like a koala, "Shut up. Not even. It's good to voice how you actually feel. I know I have Empath but I can't read minds, ya know?" He let out a breath of air, as if he had been holding the anxiety in and hugged me. I plopped on him like a log. He coughed, "Ugh! Damn! Not so hard." I giggled, "That's what she said-" He groaned, "Oh my gooood." It only made me laugh harder, "That's what she said again!" He used a free hand to rub his temples, "You're such a dumbass." I gave him a cheeky grin and wriggled up till I could nuzzle his neck. He rolled his eyes but started to rub my back. In return, I started to play with his ear and pet his hair. He seemed to enjoy it as he closed his eyes and relaxed. I murmured, "Ka-chan?" He didn't even open his eyes, growling, "What?" I continued, "Why don't you want to go home?" His breathing stopped and he tensed. He forcefully resumed and tried to relax but now he was fidgeting, "It's not like anyone would care. They think I'm a bother." I sat up, "A bother?" He avoided my gaze. I felt stern, trying to be reassuring, "You are not a bother. Okay?" He still wouldn't look at me. I grit my teeth and grabbed his chin again. He went to fight back and I cut him off, "You cannot do this to me and expect that I wouldn't do this to you. Now, look at me." He brought his gaze back to me but a hint of defiance still lived in them. I continued, "You may be strong headed and quick to action but- that doesn't make you a bother. Whoever put that thought in your head is wrong." I let go and held a nostalgic smile. I thought back to all the times Bakugo was ready to fight; the sludge monster when we first met, in the exam, and even when we were doing simple testing. When I spoke up again I felt quiet, almost embarrassed about what I was going to say next, "Ka-chan- Despite being so bold. You're never afraid to leap into action, not pulling punches and cutting the crap. You're probably the realest person I know and- I admire that."
