I Lived, Nerd【Katsuki Bakugou x Reader || Zombie Apocalypse AU】

【19】A Better Love Story Than Twilight

I've been jamming to High School Musical all week

~~~

I walked into the living room and saw the guys putting decorations up. They consisted of Happy Birthday banners, a funeral wreath, and Bar Mitzvah party favors—along with other mismatched junk from every holiday known to man. Denki was just finishing up putting the candles on the wedding cake he had baked.

I walked up and asked, "How's the cake?"

"We found a box of Funfetti cake mix left inside an empty pool, so I cooked it up and now I'm makin' it look good."

The icing on the cake was clumped and there were bread crumbs scattered across it. Denki had written, "Happy Wedding" in horrible handwriting, using a tube of pink icing. He then made a pathetic heart.

"Why did they have you do the cake?" I asked.

"Because I'm the only one with the skills to do it. Plus, they needed my electricity for the stove."

Denki had used taper beeswax candles and he just plopped them right in the center. He looked at me and smiled. That's when I noticed the cake was still in the bowl he had baked it in.

"Alright, now we need a wedding topper." Denki went outside, found some random All Might figurine beside a trash can, came back, and placed it onto the cake. "Now that's good stuff."

"What about Inko?" I asked. "She needs a topper too!"

Hanta chucked a Barbie from the other room and hit Denki in the face with it. "OOF. Oh, well, this is good enough." He put the Barbie beside the All Might figurine.

"Her leg isn't in the right direction," I pointed out.

"Neither is this wedding." Denki then left the kitchen, leaving the cake all by itself.

I facepalmed. So, I went off to find Katsuki. He was in the backyard, poking a cricket with a stick.

"Katsuki, why are you out here?" I asked.

"They're taking over my house. It's worse than the Nomu."

"Why does it bother you so much?"

"Cuz they stank. And All Might's a poser and a loser," he explained.

"Can't you just pretend to be happy for them?"

"I'd be happy if they got out of my house."

"Please, Katsuki? Do it for me!" I pled.

"Fine—if I have to. But only for you and don't tell anyone—or else everyone will ask for favors."

"I think you'll be fine. Believe me, you're not the most approachable. . ." I giggled.

"Well, excuse me, princess."

I led him inside and asked, "What else do you think we need?"

Katsuki started listing, "Talent, aesthetic, quality, dignity—"

"Be nice!" I scolded.

"(Y/N)!" Mina called as she approached me. "I got some flowers, but I can't decide what's better. Dandelions or pigweeds."

"Oh, it's a special occasion. Let's have both!" I smiled.

Mina tee-hee'd and Katsuki groaned.

"Hey, Bakugou! I think I got the ingredients for the punch," Hanta joined in on the conversation.

"Did you get the good stuff?"

I raised an eyebrow.

Hanta continued, "Yeah, man. It's to die for." He threw down a dozen melted Fun Pops on the counter and started squeezing them individually into a big, plastic bowl.
