Bombs Go with Wings

Pondering

Bakugo's POV

It was incredibly hard for me not to reach out and touch her right now. She was a worthy opponent. There were times during our fight where I wasn't that sure that I was actually going to win. It was a nice change from Kirishima and Kaminari. The three of them talked together and I admired her. She was still wearing my shirt. I liked this feeling. I liked it a lot. I could've kept her to myself all day, but I was worried about her starting UA tomorrow. The classmates did have a semester ahead of her and I thought she would've been at a massive disadvantage. I see now that she was okay. She could fight, and hold her own.

I felt Kirishima poke my side, "bro you're staring"

I snapped out of it before she noticed and fiddled with my phone

He laughed "what the hell happened between you guys?"

"Shut up shitty hair"

"Oh we are definitely talking about this later."

"Talking about what?" Kaminari butted in

"Just Bakugo's wager" Kirishima answered

"Oh I forgot about that," she blushed slightly

Kirishima raised his eyebrows at me, I met his gaze with a glare

"I haven't made up my mind yet." I answered

She shrugged, "I am tired, I think I'm gonna get some studying in then go to bed. Thanks for the training boys." She did a wave then left.

I felt all eyes on me.

"Sooooo" Kirishima twiddled his thumbs

"So what?"

"What do you mean so what? Don't forget we know you!" Kirishima rolled his eyes, "don't think that I didn't notice a major detail too."

"What detail?" Kaminari looked at Kirishima

"You idiot! The shirt!"

Kaminari looked puzzled

"She was wearing his shirt Kaminari" Kirishima rubbed his temples

"OHHHH" Kaminari looked at me, "what gives dude"

"It is none of your business." I replied coolly, "maybe we just have similar tastes"

I tried so hard to keep a straight face as I sipped my drink. I felt Kirishima raging next to me.

"He did NOT just suggest that she just happens to wear the same brand as him. Bakugo, I've seen her closet. Momo and I helped her with her outfit last night. AND, thats the same shirt you happened to train in yesterday"

"Not to mention, you're wearing the same black shirt right now." Kaminari chimed in

I shrugged. Kirishima was very observant. I couldn't hide anything from him.

Kaminari was annoyed and left to play video games in his dorm.

"I can't stand you." Kirishima nodded his head smiling, "What do you have planned?"

I told Kirishima about how I found her at the party. She was clutching a note and angry. I told him about the energy transfer, and how she stumbled to my room drunk.

"No way! And she just fell asleep in your room? Dude, I haven't even been in your room before! Bogus."

I left out details because I didn't really feel right about telling him. He narrowed his eyes at me.

"I know there's more you're not telling me." He poked me, "Did little Katsuki come out to play?"

I rolled my eyes, "I have no idea what you're talking about, and there is nothing little about me Kirishima"

"Oh my god, you guys like, at least kissed, right?" he sighed exasperated

"I don't pry on your endeavours."

Kirishima laughed, "I can't get any because I hang out with you! Everyone just thinks I'm an asshole!"

"You are"

"Shut up, you love me."

I got up to throw my trash away.

"You can't avoid me Bakugo. I will figure out this mystery with or without you."

Kirishima followed me to the elevator, "Why didn't you read that note? I want to know what it said too. You never asked?"

"No, I didn't really care but it keeps bugging me"

"Are you using your wager on that?"

"I thought about it, but I'd wish she'd just tell me on her own. We haven't known each other long, I can't force her to spill all her secrets to me"

Kirishima thought about it for a minute, "What did she do in the underworld? That's a good thing to figure out."

The elevator dinged and opened.

"I'm not actually not sure."

"That can be important to know, especially if you're pursuing a hero career."

Kirishima was right. She was a villain at one point. A high ranking one from what I could tell when I first met her. She has scars littered all over her body. Were they from fighting pro heroes? Or was she constantly getting in scraps with thugs. I need to know what she has done.

"Well, whatever she did, she's here now." Kirishima had seen the question really bothered me, "Sometimes people are put in bad situations so they can see what wrong they've done and change. She's here, and I think that's a step in the right direction." He smiled. "I'll talk to you later Bakugo!"

I went to my dorm and sat on my bed. I was still bothered by a lot of things.

Who was the note from? What did it say? What evildoings has she done? What is her purpose here?
