~❂TW❂~

I went up to my room and into the bathroom, I turned the showerhead on before I began searching for the thin metal I had used earlier that day.

I found it... pulling it out I sat on the floor taking my shirt off to look at the many cuts lining my arms, I held the blade to my wrist yet again and pressed the metal to my skin when I suddenly heard my door shut.

I froze and dropped the blade to the floor too scared to look up I just watching the small trickle of blood run down my arm.

~❂~

I heard some footsteps, but they stopped in the doorway of the bathroom 2 feet away from me. I take a shaky deep breath now shaking slightly as I pull my knees up to my chest hugging them tightly, still scared to look up.

Deku slowly kneeled beside me hesitantly wrapping his arms around me...

After a couple of minutes of just sitting there with Deku hugging me, he slowly let go picking up the blade that was on the floor throwing it in the garbage before turning the shower into a bath.

He pats my head gently kneeling in front of me, "wanna talk now or later..?" He asked gently.

"L-later..." I whispered just loud enough for him to hear me, "alright now cmon into the bath you go." he chuckled a bit and I softly nodded. I stood up and he left me alone to get into the tub.

~❂~

When I got out of the bath I got jogging pants and a sweater on, I went to try and find the blade again when Deku put a hand around my wrist, I flinched slightly but he didn't let go, he pulled me out of the bathroom and sat me on my bed. A couple minutes passed me not saying anything with him sitting in front of me, I had pulled my knees up to my chest hugging them closely leaning against the wall.

"...I'm sorry..." I finally spoke just loud enough for him to hear me.

I heard him sigh and I hesitantly looked up at him, "guess karmas a bitch, isn't it, Kacchan?" He remarked rolling his eyes. I hid my face in my arms too scared to look at him as a tear rolled down my cheek.

"You gonna sit there and mope or are you gonna explain why the hell your doing that?" Deku said sternly and I flinched slightly, "I-I don't wanna talk about it.." I mumbled.

I felt the bed shift beside me and looked over to see Deku was laying on the bed looking at me. He chuckled rolling his eyes, "Jeez your such a baby now, what happened to the big tough Kacchan I use to know." He remarked. "Life happened.." I mumbled looking away.

Deku went quiet hearing my response and I tended up a little, "damn.. worse then me." Deku chuckled nudging me, "your not leaving my sight unless your going to school then, now cmon I made some food and it's gonna start getting cold." He said calmly getting off the bed.

~❂~

I was now back in my room after eating just laying on my bed while scrolling through social media, I got a call from Kiri, I smiled softly at the contact sitting up as I answered it, "what do you want shitty hair?" Deku scoffed at the nickname rolling his eyes. "Hey Bakubro wanna hang out with us?"

"Us..?" I asked a little confused, "yeah, me, Denki, Sero and Mina, so you down?"

I looked over to Deku and he raised his eyebrows, whatever it gets me out of his sight,
"Sure whatever, where are you?"

"We're at the park." He chirped, happy I said yes. "Alright, I'll be there in five." I said and hung up.

I put my phone down and got up going to my dresser pulling out a pair of black ripped jeans, I look over to Deku and see him still looking at me, "turn around or let me change in the bathroom.." I say quietly, "not a chance with the bathroom," he chuckled rolling his eyes as he turned around.

I quickly changed into the pants, "alright.." I mumbled grabbing my shoes and slipping them on, grabbing my phone and wallet and quickly walking out of my house to the park.

When I got to the park the whole Bakusquad came over and hugged me tightly, "get off!" I growled and they immediately let go laughing a bit, "ok where to?" Kiri asked putting an arm around my shoulder. "How the first k should I know I only came because you asked me to!" I said trying to get out of Kiri's arm.

"Aww, see you do care about us." Denki teased. I rolled my eyes, "whatever.."

"Oh, let's go to that new cafe shop down the street!" Mina suggested excitedly, and we all agreed and walked to the cafe shop, when we got there we ordered something for ourselves and sat at a booth by a window.

I was mindlessly looking outside the window taking a sip of my tea every now and then.
Why do they even put up with me..? I'm an asshole to all of them yet they still try to hang out with me..

I let my thoughts travel thinking about anything and everything. "Earth to Bakugou," Mina chuckled waving her hand in front of my face snapping me out of my thoughts. "Hm, what?" I asked looking over to her.

"I asked 'out of the whole Bakusquad who would you date?' Everyone already answered so what's your answer?" She asked with a small smirk on her face, "what did you guys say?" I asked curiously.

"I-I said Denki.." Sero said sounding a little embarrassed, and Denki just gave a small 'Mhm' blushing a little, I chuckled a bit, "and you two?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Aha.. u-Uhm..." Kiri mumbled the answer blushing and looking away, "I can't hear you shitty hair." I said a little annoyed, "y-you..." he repeated. I froze as I felt the tips of my ears heat up.

I looked away again hiding my face, "h-hey that's not an answer!" Mina chuckled quietly, "I-I don't know..." I mumbled. I didn't want anyone to know I was gay just yet.. "I-I guess Mina," I whispered, it's not completely a lie, I did enjoy Mina's company.

They kept talking while I zoned out looking out the window again until it got late, we all said our goodbyes and began heading off but I felt a hand on my shoulder so I tensed up a bit looking to see who it was, "you alright Bakugou?" Mina asked, "yeah, I'm fine.." She shrugged it off giving me a small smile and went on her way home.

When I got to my house I didn't see Deku I shrugged it off, kicking my shoes off and going up to my room, I plugged my phone in setting in on my night stand before snuggling up under the covers and slowly falling asleep.

Ayyy the next chapter is outtt, ngl I'm kinda excited to see how it goes, feel free to leave some constructive criticism, I'm always looking for ways to improve, byee.
