human,

It was now silent. You waited pressed up behind the kitchen door trying to calm yourself down as you heard the footsteps enter the living room.

"Momo is having afters, are you coming?" Mina asked.

"Uh, no." Katsuki said scanning the room, "Too tired."

"I guess I'll see you another time then." she sighed and pecked his lips.

"Yeah okay." he said, still looking around. He jolted hearing the door slam.

He walked around the apartment a bit before getting back into bed and turning the light off, leaving you standing alone in the kitchen.

*･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*

"Goodmorning!" you smiled at his as he entered the room.

You made note to not mention the warning last night. Or anything else.

"Are you hungover?" you asked.

"Like a bitch."

You started to pour him a glass of water, as you went to leave to get the headache tablets he grabbed your wrist.

"Where were you last night?" he asked.

"I was waiting in the kitchen, Katsuki, like you asked me to." you smiled before removing yourself from him grip and leaving.

She's acting weird, he thought to himself. When you re-entered you handed him the pill which he proceeded to take.

"Did you-" he started, making you look up at him. He was struggling to get his words out, "Did you hear?"

"Hear what?"

"Last night."

"Oh yes! You had a girl round. I can erase that from the hard drive if you would like?" You smiled.

He hated when you spoke like this, it reminded him that you were still only just a robot.

"Whatever." he mumbled.

"Can I ask you something Katsuki?" he nodded in response, "Who is Mina to you?"

He paused for a moment before speaking again, "My ex."

"Oh I see! Exes who have sexual intercourse are most likely in a position where they have not moved on yet. Maybe you should discuss your feelings with her!" you beamed, repeating the response that was programmed into you.

"Shut up. Don't say sexua- Whatever, what would you know?" he hissed.

"That's true, I don't know what love feel like so it would be impossible to give you an accurate response. However, statistics say that-"

"I don't care what statistics say! Just go away." he shouted.

You nodded and left the room to go sit on the windowsill.

What would you know? His voice echoed in your head.

"Nothing" you whispered.

I want Katsuki to see me as more than just a robot. I want to be like her, human.

*･゜ﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*

You walked into the living room to see Bakugou with his back to you, on the phone. He didn't notice your presence.

"Just forget it Mina, we were both drunk. It didn't mean anything, we are better off without each other." He paused, "Just stop calling me, I've moved on." he said before hanging up.

He stood up and turned around to see you watching him.

"Sorry I wasn't eavesdropping, I just came in and you were-" you said.

"That was Mina." he interrupted you.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." He sat down, "we never had a good relationship anyway, I don't think I ever actually loved her." he sighed.

You came and sat next to him, placing a hand on his thigh.

"Did she love you?" you asked causing him to flinch, he shot you a glare but it quickly faded.

"No."

"It's okay Katsuki, I will always love you."

He just scoffed, laughing slightly, "Of course you do, you have too."

You chuckled lightly, however you could feel your wiring strain. If only he could see you as more than just a machine. Your laugh faded and your eyes fell to the ground. He noticed your frown and interlocked his fingers with yours.

"Y/n" he whispered, "You- You're crying."

You looked up at him and touched your cheek, the tear landed on your finger.

"How-" he said under his breath as you looked at him with disbelief. "This isn't right." he muttered, "You're broken."

"No!" you exclaimed wiping your cheek, "I'm fine! I work fine!"

"I need to get you fixed."

"No Katsuki, I'll change! I won't think anymore. I'll work! Just please don't take me back."

He grabbed your wrist and pulled you up.

"Stay still." he said as he went to move your hair to one side and found the button on the back of your neck.

"What are you doing- please don't." you pleaded, eyes widening.

"I'm going to turn you off, you're freaking me out."

"No!" you moved away and covered your neck. Your eyes met with his, "Katsuki please, I'm begging you."

"Y/n, you're broken!" he approached you.

"Please! They'll kill me!" the fear in your voice was ringing in his ears, "I've only just been born!"

He took a step back and squinted.

"Y/n, do you think you're alive?"
