8. Kaminari Trouble

Later that night, (Y/n) went upstairs to Katsuki's room, saying they were gonna watch some YouTube and go to bed early. Katsuki, not trusting them one bit, followed them up and sat on his bed. He eyed them for a while, watching how their expression barely changed as they watched a video on their phone. He could hear the video through their earbuds briefly and could make out a lot of laughing, so he assumed that whatever was happening was funny. But still, (Y/n) made no attempt to laugh or even smile.

"Hey, loser," Katsuki called. They pulled out their earbuds and looked at him, humming a response. "I'll sleep on the floor tonight. You take my bed." (Y/n) studied him for a second before sighing.

"I don't have a choice, do I?" They asked, to which Katsuki smirked and shook his head. (Y/n) scoffed and stood up with their phone and earbuds, then sat down beside him.

"What are you watching?" Katsuki asked, looking at their screen.

"Just a gaming stream." (Y/n) unplugged their headphones and set their phone on their thigh, directed towards Katsuki so he could watch it with them. He had to refrain from looking elsewhere and had a hard time paying attention to what was going on in the stream.

When he was finally able to focus properly, he immediately became intrigued. It was an intense game, and he was staring at the small screen with intrigue. He found himself leaning closer to the screen, and he bumped heads with (Y/n).

Katsuki quickly withdrew his head and looked at (Y/n) with an unexplainable look. They cracked a very slight smile at his face and shifted their body to close the space between them, placing their phone half on their thigh and half on Katsuki's. His cheeks felt hot and his eyes started darting between the screen and their face.

(Y/n) then laid their head on his shoulder, making Katsuki's heart race. He couldn't describe what he was feeling, but he didn't like how easily it took over his body. It made him feel weak. Subconsciously, his arm snaked around their waist, gently pulling them closer. (Y/n) flinched at the sudden touch, but relaxed, and almost considerably cuddled even closer to him.

The two stayed like that for some time, watching the stream together. (Y/n) was even able to let out a small laugh. It had caught Katsuki off guard, and he looked at them in shock. (Y/n) picked their head up from his shoulder and smiled a little at him, before it quickly turned back into a neutral face. Katsuki huffed out a laugh and a smirk fell upon his lips.

"You should smile more, dork."

"Smiling is like running. When you want to, you can't. It only really happens when you least expect it. Once you get into a good pace, you know," (Y/n) explained. Katsuki nodded, but didn't fully agree with them. He was determined to make them smile as often as possible.

Knock knock knock

"Who in the hell.." Katsuki muttered, pulling out his phone to see if anyone had texted. Of course, the one person he did not want to talk to, had texted him. The texts read:

"Hey Bakugou!! Mina told me all about your friend. Kaori, right? I want to meet them sometime! Can we get together for a hangout tonight? Helloooo??? Ok that's it I'm on my way to your place. See you soon Kacchan!! <3"

Katsuki's eye twitched and he growled lowly. (Y/n) looked at him and raised an eyebrow.

"Who's that?" They asked, looking over at his phone.

"Dunce Face. He's right outside the front door." A creak was heard and a loud slam followed it. "Nevermind he's inside now." Katsuki tried to think of a way to hide (Y/n) and finally, an idea popped into his head.

"Remember how you said you were going to be gone soon because you were just passing through?" Katsuki asked. (Y/n) nodded, not knowing what he was getting at. "Hide in the closet and don't come out until I say it's ok. I'll tell him that you already left. Sound good?" (Y/n) nodded again, opening the closet and sitting down in the corner, then closing it behind them.

Katsuki laid down on his bed, acting as if he were just asleep. Kaminari burst through the door screaming out "WAKE UP YOUNG BAKUGOU!! FOR I AM HERE!!!" Katsuki sat up fast and shot a deadly glare at Kaminari.

"OI YOU DUMBASS FUCKING PIKACHU I'LL FUCKING MURDER YOUR DUMB BITCH ASS GET OVER HERE." Katsuki jumped out of his bed and started beating Kaminari up, while he was just laughing.

"Sorry! Sorry! I just had to.. Anyway!! Where's Kaori at? Are they not here? I wanna see how hot they are. Mina said they were my type!!! I need to see them for myself!" Kaminari started looking around the room and was about to open the closet. Katsuki growled lowly.

"You're too late dunce face. They left a few hours ago. And they probably wouldn't have even wanted to hang out with you..." Katsuki said, muttering the last part.

"Come on! Really?? Damn... What's their number? I at least want to text them..." Kaminari asked.

"No."

And with that, Katsuki shoved the other male out of his room, slamming the door. Kaminari frowned and sulked back downstairs, glancing back briefly, but then continuing to the front door.

"He's gone. You can come out now," Katsuki said, and the closet door opened slowly, (Y/n) emerging from it. In that moment, Katsuki got a small sense of security, seeing them standing before him, seeming so helpless and lost. Like a baby wolf separated from its mother.

"You ok?" (Y/n) asked, eyeing Katsuki suspiciously.

"Huh? Oh- yeah, I'm.. I'm fine..." He said, his eyes darting to the floor as his face reddened. Yes, he was staring at them. For a while.

"Man... He sure is a wild one," (Y/n) said, scratching their arm awkwardly.

"That's dunce face for you," Katsuki replied. The room was awkwardly silent for some time, both teens had their eyes glued to the floor, and neither dared to talk, scared that the awkward tension would only thicken. Eventually, (Y/n) broke the silence.

"Sooo.. The stream is almost over. Want to continue watching it?"

Katsuki nodded and sat back down on the bed. (Y/n) sat on the bed, but then brought their legs up, laying down on their side. Katsuki raised his eyebrow.

"I'm tired."

He nodded and sat criss-cross on his bed, but then (Y/n) laid their head on his knee, holding their phone in front of them. Katsuki growled quietly, his face going red for the umpteenth time that day.

"Why do you keep doing that," he muttered quietly, averting eye contact with the teen.

"Doing what?"

"Being cute. It's making me feel weird."

"Oh."

"But then again... I don't want you to stop. It's... an unexplainable feeling.. and I kinda like it..."

"What the fuck??"

Katsuki moved his legs and laid down beside (Y/n), wrapping an arm around their stomach and placing his chin on their head. Their face flustered fast.

"K-katsuki!! Stop that!!" They stuttered out, trying to wriggle out of his grasp.

"Hah! Loser. Now you know what I've had to put up with all day." (Y/n) pouted and 'hmph'ed, but then cuddled closer to him. "There you go again."

"If you want me to stop, then you stop!"

"Then I guess you're not stopping anytime soon..."
