You turned me into a WHAT? (KIRIBAKU)

Part 5

Bakugou's eyes grow hazy the longer Kirishima takes to get to the nurse. He knows that Kirishima is trying to get him there as fast as he can, but he was burning up from the inside. He realized earlier that being closer to Kirishima made the heat die down, if only slightly, so he wasn't going to let go anytime soon.

He buries his face further into Kirishima's neck and he feels his furry ears twitch. He wags his tail slightly as he inhaled the scent of Kirishima. It reminds him of the smell when he goes hiking. He can almost taste the fresh air on his tongue. He smells like the wooded earth and it makes Bakugou's skin tingle.

Kirishima notices the wagging tail when he looks over Bakugou's shoulder. His face breaks out into a small smile and he lets out a quiet huff as he adjusts Bakugou's weight in his arms. They arrive at the nurse's door and Kirishima releases his grip so he can knock quickly. Bakugou tightens his arms around Kirishima's neck when he feels the other's arms pull away, relaxing them again when they come back almost immediately.

Bakugou felt his eyes almost glaze over and his head was beginning to feel a bit fuzzy. He hears the door to the nurse's office open and feels the vibrations of Kirishima talking. Bakugou assumes Kirishima had told her the gist of everything that was going on. If he hadn't, Bakugou didn't feel in the mood to try and explain everything. He listens when Recovery Girl starts to talk.

"Well, let's get him lying on the bed. It will be easier for me to look at him that way. Do you mind carrying him over?"

Kirishima nods and walks through the doorway and over to the bed closest to Recovery Girl's desk. When Bakugou feels Kirishima try to place him down, he clings his arms tightly around Kirishima's neck and squeezes his legs around Kirishima's waist. It was obvious that he had no plans to let go anytime soon.

Kirishima chuckles awkwardly as he turns his head and looks to Recovery Girl for assistance. She gives the redhead a small smile and sees Bakugou lift his head to give her a warning glare.

Walking over to the pair, she watches as Bakugou follows her every movement. It was clear that he was wary of her presence and felt more comfortable while in his friend's arms. When she stops two steps from Kirishima's back, Bakugou looks at her closely and Recovery Girl notices the fogginess of his eyes.

When he deems her unharmful, he turns his head back into Kirishima's neck, once again burying his face. She sees him nuzzle his nose slightly into the others shoulder before relaxing again. Recovery Girl thinks she has an idea of what is going on.

"Alright dearie, I think I know what is happening to your friend here. You said he got hit with the quirk last night, right?"

"Yes ma'am," Kirishima responds while turning around quickly, eager to know if there is a way he can somehow help Bakugou.

"Well, we can see the obvious visual reaction of the quirk, but you have to remember, sometimes quirks have more than what the eye can see."

The red head's eyes widen. He thinks he knows what she is getting at.

"The quirk he was hit with most likely had other aspects to it. Boy, have you ever heard of alphas, betas, or omegas?"

Kirishima ponders for a moment, recalling after a while that he thinks he may have read a book about something like that at some point.

"I'm sure I have, but what does this have anything to do with Bakugou?" Confusion is written clearly across Kirishima's face.

"You see, I think the quirk your friend here was hit with was more than this wolf thing he has going on with his appearance. I think he may have also been turned into an omega. Now saying that, I am pretty sure he is going into heat."

Kirishima looks down at the boy in his arms. He can't see his face, but he is cuddled tightly into Kirishima's warmth.

"Now this may be a weird question, but seeing as his face is in your neck, have you felt him sniff or nuzzle into a certain spot? It would probably be around here." She taps Kirishima on the juncture of his neck opposite the blonde. Kirishima flushes a bright red but soon notices that it's the spot that Bakugou has been favoring when he cuddles closer.

"U- um, I think so?" Kirishima stutters out, embarrassed. Kirishima feels Bakugou pick his head up and watches him as he turns to look at the nurse. He sees the blonde snarl and he grabs tighter to Kirishima. Recovery Girl takes a couple of measured steps back and only then does Bakugou drop the look on his face and turn back into Kirishima.

The old lady gives a small smile and sits down on the stool at her desk. "I think this boy's omega has taken a liking to you. With his heat starting, he now sees you as an alpha figure and is using to help keep the symptoms low. This is why he is clinging to you. In alphas, betas, and omegas, the scent gland is where he keeps putting his face. The gland on the neck is where most of your saturated scent comes from."

Kirishima stares at Recovery girl slack-jawed. "You mean he thinks I'm his alpha?"

"Yea, I guess you could put it that way." The old lady shrugs.

"What-" Kirishima pauses mid-sentence to let out a noise that is somehow a mix of a gasp and a yelp when he fells a quick warm, wet feeling along his collarbone. The shark-toothed boy's eyes widen as he realizes that Bakugou just licked him. He honestly feels like he is going to pass out.

The nurse chuckles. "Okay dearie, there's not anything I can really do that would help him at this moment. I suggest getting some clothes from the people closest to Bakugou. When omegas go into heat, sometimes building a nest with their friends' or families clothes can help calm the heat and it relaxes the omega."

Kirishima nervously chuckles. "So I just take him back to his dorm room with our friends' clothes and he should be fine, right? Do you think I should stay with him?"

Recovery Girl nods. "Yes, I think he would appreciate that very much. It would be wise to bring food and water to his room because he may be difficult when it comes time to eat."

"Okay." Kirishima seems determined. "Quick question, do you know how long the heat will last?"

Recovery Girl hums for a moment. "Normal heats last closer to a week but since this is the result of a quirk, it might not be as long. I guess we will just have to wait and find out." She stands from her desk and ushers the boys out of the door. "If you have any questions or find yourself in need of anything, you can always come find me, alright?"

Kirishima grins. "Alright, thanks for your help!"

"It's not a problem, dearie."

"Now", Kirishima says aloud to himself. "Time to go get some clothes." He begins his walk back towards the dorms, a now sleeping Bakugou still in his arms.
