Shinsou X Neko Reader

Part 4-Bakugou's Rage

         Denki came back to the lunch table. "I was just going to apologize to Shinsou, but I couldn't find him. Sorry for leaving you," he explained to you. You both continued eating your lunches, an uncomfortsble silence over at how you may have lost your one chance to make a friend.

          Bakugou walked up to your table, and without warning, started yelling at you. "Idiot! I told you to do it today! Can't you get anything right ponytail? I thought you were supposed to be the really smart one! But you're just a dumbass who can't do anything!" He grabbed you by the collar of your shirt, making small explosions with his other hand. 

         "I don't know what you are talking about! Let me go!" You screeched in response, kicking him and flexing your claws out. People looked on, but no one did anything to stop him. This was high school, if you made it this far you should be able to stick up for yourself. You narrow your eyes, hiss, and take a swipe at him for all the threats and hurt he had caused your classmates in a flash. It was all you could think of in the moment. Bakugou tenderly presses a hand to his cheek with a frown, and looks down to see the blot of blood, looking both furious and impressed you would  actually dare to strike him.

          Kirishima butts in and starts trying to calm him down. "Hey, what's going on? Their name isn't ponytail, that's your nickname for Yaomomo! You've got the wrong person, at least." Her? How did he mistake people so easily? Did he need glasses? You stayed frozen and hesitantly retracted your claws, hoping Kirishima and Denki could diffuse the situation without more blooshed and violence.

           "You sure?" Bakugou tightened his grip on your shirt, either about to deem you a waste of time or explode your face off. By now, the whole cafeteria was pretty much looking over to see what the outcome would be, and a staff member called over the nurse, just in case.

            Shinsou rushed in from wherever he had run off to from the crowd, straight for the two of you 

           "Let them go!" he asserted. It was the first time you had ever heard him raise his voice. Your heart fluttered. He had come back to save you from the bully.

           "Not a chance!" Bakugou snarled, whipping around to face whoever had the guts to defy him so adamantly. Hitoshi whispered something to the blonde. Why would he get so close? How was he so confident around Bakugou? It was impressive. Bakugou's attitude flipped, suddenly not aggressive for once, and he went limp for a second, and shook his head.

          "Tch, all these useless extras get mixed up. Let's go Kiri, you must be right, of course I must have been thinking about Yaoyorozu. I'm so sorry, Y/N." His words echoed oddly, as if they were not his own, the kindness and apology faked, but also real at the same time.

          He released you, and you stumbled backward into Hitoshi's arms. Too much was happening at once! "D-did Bakugou just apologize to me?! What just happened? Is he going to go after Momo now?" You were shocked by what just happened. Bakugou had stopped picking on you over the past few weeks, and you had been suprised when he approached you. How could he have possibly confused you with Momo?

           "No. She'll be fine," Hitoshi said, with a stubborn certainty, as if he somehow knew with all his being what Bakugou would or wouldn't do next. He smirked at himself, as if thinking just that.

           "What do you mean? We need to go be sure that he doesn't attack her or anything. You guys were there to reason with him this time, and for that I'm thankful of course,  but even Kirishima can't stop Bakugou from being angry! What if -" 

             Shinsou cut you off, pointing out the window sternly. "Look, I sent them outside. They won't bother us. Maybe he'll even confess to his boyfriend out there. Now, I think the bell will hopefully ring soon, and -" Just as he finished his sentence, the bell rang and he headed off. You pondered over his words. There was so much you didn't know about him.

            "Denki, did you hear what he said? Hitoshi said he sent Bakugou outside, but Bakugou just went out there because he wanted to. Why do you think he said that? And how did he convince him to leave me alone?" 

             Denki looked at you like he had no clue. "Uh, because Shinsou worded whatever he told Bakugou really well, of course. He's more than he lets on, huh?" he said, a distant look in his eye. Upon seeing you still freaked out, he refocused. "Really, calm down. Don't let him get you so worked up. If I got in trouble every time I worded a sentence a little wrong, I'd have an F in all my classes. You too,  since you hiss and meow and stuff sometimes." 

             Fair point. You chuckled, and left it at that.
