Stay Hidden (KiriBaku story Fantasy AU)

Part 29

POV Kirishima

We got back to the cave and I decided I was going to sleep on the top bunk bed and kat was going to have the double bed.

"why the hell are you so excited" kat asked me as I was climbing the ladder leading to the top bunk

"well it seem fun sleeping so high up, I guess I'm just excited" I laugh a bit at myself and how silly that sounded

"calm down its just a bed kiri" I heard kat say as i got onto the bed.

"I feel so tall" I said

"you can fly, better yet you can turn into a massive dragon and this makes you feel tall" he said staring at me confused... forgot about that

"yeah well this is different" don't ask how, don't ask how

"how?" damn it

"I'm tired, see you tomorrow" boom situation resolved, I'm a genius.

"night kiri" kat laughed

"night" I said and we went to sleep

CRASH

I was having a lovely dream when all of a sudden, a loud noise woke me up. In panic I shot up and hit my head on the ceiling. Still in panic and with a hurting head I tried to get towards the ladder but fell onto the floor. Shiiit my head is killing.

"holy fuck kiri are you okay" kat said grabbing my shoulder

"my head hurts" I said

"anything else?" he asked.

"Anything else! I just fell out of the top bunk" I shouted

"that's my point kiri, does anything else hurt?"

"ooh nope just my head" I respond a little embarrassed. As I continued to clutch my head, I feel kat pick me up and carry me to a bed.

"I'll be back now I'm just going to see what that sound was" Bakugo said as he walked out of the room, I soon fell asleep.

POV Bakugo

What the fuck was that noise, I can't see anything out of place anywhere, whatever.

I walk back into the room and over to kiri to see him asleep, he looks so peaceful it's cute.

Huh, how have I grown so attached to someone I've only known for a few weeks. When I first met kiri in the black smiths I was talking to mina and – I was talking to mina, the others, shit. I completely forgot about them. they are probably looking for us or at least me, they might think kirishima took me, fuck we've gotta go back, kiri looks happy here. He is able to be himself and not have to hide.

Stop, go to sleep I'll decide what to do tomorrow.

POV Aizawa

We were able to reach the bottom of the mountain yesterday and set up camp for the night. From where we were there was no obvious path up the mountain, looks like we're – I'm going to have to climb. I walk over to the group, who are packing up ready to move on.

"our next move is to get to the top of the mountain from what we can see there isn't a path, climbing is our only option. It's high and if you fall you would probably die, so ive decided to go alone" I say calmly already being able to tell they weren't going to agree.

"we've come this far, we can't let you go alone now"

"we came to help, we've gotta go all the way"

"you don't know what's up there, it could be dangerous"

"there's strength in numbers"

"I appreciate the concern but I can put any of you at risk of falling to your deaths, this is my final decision. Any questions before I leave?" I say interrupting their attempts to change my mind

"well, it's not really a question but there's a small cavern a little up the mountain the path may be in there" ... what

"denki why didn't you say anything" mina said looking at her friend

"when did you even find it" sero added

"well I couldn't sleep last night so I went on a little walk but I went further than I wanted to and saw a weird yellow squirrel animal thing, it looked weird so I followed it" he said and shinso facepalms while mina and sero giggled.

"then it ran up a tree and when I looked up it was gone but I saw a hole in the mountain. It was too dark for me to climb so for all I know it could just be a dead end but I though I'd mention it anyway" denki continued. Silence, just silence

"why is everyone looking at me" denki said lifting his hands in the air in defence

"well it can't hurt to look, denki lead the way" I said and we saddle up to leave.

POV Bakugo

I woke up to see kiri still asleep next to me, well it wasn't so much next to me than wrapped around me, our faces were centimetres away from each other. Our arms were around each other and out legs intertwined. Should I just pretend to be asleep so it's not awkward, I mean it's not real awkward for me but I don't know how he will react. I was going to sleep in the other bed but got distracted by my thoughts.

What am I going to do about that?

"ohh umm mornin' kat" kiri said, his face is bright red

"morning Ei, how's your head?" I ask

"it's okay, could be better" he said then it went silent but neither of us moved.

"kat why do you keep changing my nickname?" he asked

"what?"

"well you call me Ei, kiri, shitty hair, Eijiro, kirish-"

"okay I get it, I don't know I just say whatever comes to mind"

"hu okay"

"why do you want me to stick to one?" I ask

"nah I don't mind" and it went quiet again

"hey kat I've gotta ask you something, but later I've got to think about it first. I'm just saying so you can remind me if I forget" Ei said I wonder if he's thinking about going back as well

"same here Ei"

Knock knock "hey you two up we're gonna eat soon" crazy chick said from the other side of the door

"coming now toga" Ei said as we separated.

POV Aizawa

it was about an hour later and we had only just reached the cave, he must have been walking for ages. I got off our horses and tied him to a tree and as I turned around, I see everyone but shinso and uraraka climbing the mountain. It was a straight up surface and they were trying their best.

I walk over to shinso and uraraka

"hey uraraka right? I don't think we've spoke before but my dad tells me you're a witch" shinso asked. Smart.

"yep that me and I think I know where your going with this. I was going to offer my help to the others but they shot off before I even had time" she replied smiling

"well I think your still going to have to help them" I say looking over at the group they were hardly off the floor.

"okey doky, I'll sent you two up first" she said putting a hand on my shoulder and a hand on shinsos, then she put her hands together and we started to float. We were quickly in the cave and it didn't take long for the others to realize what happened and rush over to her for help.

Soon we were all in the cave and on our way down the trail.
