Bakugou writes and sings songs as a hobby but only Midoriya knows about it due to their past together. When class 1-A plays truth or dare, Katsuki is dared to sing them a song...

"Please~! Come on Bakubro~" Kirishima pleaded, throwing in his puppy eyes for good measure. The class was doing a truth or dare evening and the ash blonde never joined in on game nights! The Bakusquad was doing everything in their power to convince him.
"Or are you too scared~?" Ashido teased.
"Chicken!" Kaminari added, making Bakugou fume.

"Alright you fuckers! You're on!"
They all cheered, happy they consulten Midoriya on how to drag him in to this. There were snacks as everyone sat around on the couches and the ground in a big circle in the common room.
"Alright! Let's get started!" Mina smiled.
"Hmm... Midoriya! Truth or dare?"
"U-uhm truth..?" he answered, earning booing from some of the guys.

"Oh let him be! Midoriya shouldn't be ashamed to chose truth" Momo stated.
"It's alright, Yaoyorozu" Izuku smiled.
"So Ashido?"
"Let's see... How many All Might figurines do you own? Like, up in your dorm but also at your home" she asked. Bakugou groaned at that and got up, ready to leave, only to be pulled back down by Sero and Kaminari. Deku started muttering as he counted on his hands, mentally going off all his All Might figurines.

About ten minutes later, he was finally able to give her an answer. The amount was absurd but nobody was surprised by that.
"Alright Midoriya! You're up next!" Mina smiled.
"Right, uhm, Ojiro, truth or dare?"
"Dare" he stated, knowing Midoriya wouldn't let him do something too embarrassing.
"I dare you to stand on your tail" the green head smiled.

"Wait, can you do that? I've never seen you stand on your tail" Hagakure pointed out.
"Don't know, haven't tried before" he shrugged as he stood up from his place on the floor. He failed and fell face first back down, which had half of the class laughing. Later on, Momo had tried to aplly make-up to Hagakure's face, which was absolutely hilarious seeing as it was an absolute disaster.

Tokoyami had to act like a bird for ten full minutes and Shoji was dared to grow an extra head. Kirishima had jumped off the roof of the building after he was asked if he could survive that with his hardening. The answer was yes, in case you were wondering. Kaminari was dumbstrucken after testing how many devices he could power up at once and Todoroki had confessed to having a crush, but refused to tell who it was.

Right now all eyes were on Bakugou though, after Shoto asked him the question.
"Truth or dare, Bakugou?"
"Dare! I'm not a fucking pussy!" Katsuki hissed.
"Hmm..." the halfa hummed, thinking about a dare before Uraraka whispered something in his ear.
"You really want to hear that?" was Todoroki's instant response.

"Come on, please~? The girls have been wondering about it ever since Hagakure told us she heard him when he thought he was alone" Ochako giggled.
"What the hell are you talking about round face?" Bakugou grumbled.
"I dare you to sing a song in front of the whole class. Right here, right now" Todoroki stated. Katsuki's eyes got a tad bigger and he instantly made eye contact with Izuku. The green head shook his head quickly. He hadn't told them anything!

Bakugou clenched his fists and groaned. He'd been somewhat of an amateur musician over the years, writing and singing his own songs. It was more of a hobby, but Deku knew about it since they were childhood friends. He was the only one here who was supposed to know about it damnit! But apparently invisble chick had heard him sing or something? Ugh, what a pain in the ass...

"Alright, whatever" Bakugou sighed, getting up from his seat, accompanied by cheering from the class as he stood in front of them. They never specified which sing he needed to sing, did they? Well, let's give them a surprise. Katsuki smirked as he connected his phone to the stereo and started playing the audio of one of his more recent songs. He called it Natural. He started humming along as he turned around to face the class again.

"Will you hold the line?" he sang.
"When every one of them is giving up or giving in? Tell me... In this house of mine. Nothing ever comes without a consequence or cost, tell me... Will the stars align? Will heaven step in? Will it save us from our sin? Will It? Cause this house of mine stands strong"
He grinned when he saw the baffled reactions, hearing some people whisper about not recognizing the song.

"That's the price you pay. Leave behind your heart and cast away... Just another product of today. Rather be the hunter than the prey. And you're standing on the edge, face up 'cause you're a-" he sang, waiting for the beat.

"Natural!"

Yeah, that really blew those extras off their socks!
"A beating heart of stone! You gotta be so cold... To make it in this world! Yeah, you're a natural! Living your life cutthroat! You gotta be so cold! Yeah, you're a na-tu-ral!"
He took a deep breath after that. Time to tone down a bit again.
"Will somebody... Let me see the light within the dark trees shadowing? What's happening? Looking through the glass find the wrong within the past knowing. Oh, we are the youth. Cut until it bleeds, inside a world without the peace facing... A bit of the truth, the truth..."

By now everyone was mesmerized by his voice, listenign intently to the lyrics.
"That's the price you pay. Leave behind your heart and cast away... Just another product of today. Rather be the hunter than the prey. And you're standing on the edge, face up 'cause you're a-" he continued.
"Natural! A beating heart of stone! You gotta be so cold... To make it in this world! Yeah, you're a natural! Living your life cutthroat! You gotta be so cold! Yeah, you're a na-tu-ral!"

Ashido had gotten up, already knowing the chorus and singing it along full heartedly.
"This is a good song man! Where did you find it?" she asked, but before I answered her, I continued with the next lines.
"Deep inside me, I'm fading to black, I'm fading. Took an oath by the blood of my hand, won't break it. I can taste it, the end is upon us, I swear... I'm gonna make it. I'm gonna make it!" he exclaimed, grinning at the pink girl, who threw her arm around him, knowing what was about to come.

"Natural!" they yelled together.

"A beating heart of stone! You gotta be so cold! To make it in this world! Yeah, you're a natural! Living your life cutthroat!! You gotta be so cold! Yeah, you're a na-tu-ral!"
"Hell yeah! Man, you gotta send me a link to this!" Ashido exclaimed.
"Would if I could" Bakugou shrugged.
"What ya say half-n-half? I nailed your pathetic dare!"
"Dude, where did yoy find that song? I've never heard it before" Jirou asked.

"You liked it?" Bakugou asked, raising a brow. She had great taste in music, everyone here knew it so Bakugou wasn't gonna deny it. But if she liked his song, maybe they were actually decent? He'd never sang in front of others like that before, let alone sing a song he'd written. Midoriya had told him he should record it and put it out on the internet for all to enjoy when they were younger. Deku has always encouraged his musical adventures...

"Yeah man! That was awesome!" Kirishima smiled.
"I didn't know you could sing like that!"
"Yeah, none of us did!" Kaminari added.
"What can I say? I'm fucking amazing"
"A natural" Jirou snorted.
"But seriously, send me that song"
"Yeah so I can't do that" Katsuki sighed, putting his hands in his pockets.

"Ugh, why do you have to be such a buzzkill about it man? At least give us the name of the artist" Sero asked.
"Ah..." Bakugou hummed.
"Well, that would be me"
The common room fell silent and Izuku was the first to come back from the silence.
"Is this the one you were working on? It sounds great Kacchan!"
"Of fucking course it does! I wrote that shit!" the ash blonde hissed, making Deku chuckle and scratch the back of his head.

"You wrote that?!"

People started yelling and screaming all at once, creating a cacophony of noises.
"Oi! Shut the hell up!" Bakugou yelled, glaring at his classmates.
"Yes I fucking wrote that shit! And if you've got anything to say about it, I'll take you head on! Come at me you damn extras!"
"What? No! You're good! Very good even" Jirou stated.
"You, uh, you've got any other songs?"

"Oh, uh, thanks..." Katsuki mumbled, glancing aside, suddenly quite shy about his own talent.
"Yeah, uh, I can show you sometime if you want... It's whatever"
"Oh man! Now I wanna hear you sing another song~!" Uraraka whined.
"I'm gonna need to sing for every damn dare I get from now on, don't I?" Bakugou groaned.

"Suffering from success" Kaminari laughed, making Katsuki roll his eyes. Secretly he was very happy that they liked it, but for now he'll settle for grumpily sitting amongst his classmates, acting annoyed at their antics.
