Bombs Go with Wings

Aftercare

We cuddled for a while. Katsuki had closed his eyes and snored lightly into my hair. After my full body high wore off, I gently pushed myself away from him. He softly protested as I got up.

"Wait, you're coming back right?" he sounded hurt that I had gotten up

"Yeah, I just have to pee."

"Yea me too" He got up and followed me to the bathroom casually

I laughed, "what are you doing?"

"We're going pee dumbass."

Before I could close the door to my bathroom he pushed me back and closed the bathroom door with both of us inside.

"Katsuki!" I shoved him playfully

"Kai! Hurry up or I'll piss on you" he held a neutral expression

I crossed my arms "I can't pee when you're looking at me."

"I'll turn around, but I am not leaving."

He turned around and I looked at his butt.

"Don't you fucking dare. I will kill you."

I did my business and when I got up I smacked his ass.

"Kai, I swear to fucking god you're dead."

"Go pee hothead" I rolled my eyes and left the bathroom.

I put on a shirt and my panties and sat in my bed.

Bakugo walked in and frowned. He picked up his boxers and put them on. He sat next to me, I put my head on his shoulder

"Favorite color?" he asked,

"Blue. Yours?"

"Orange."

We were silent for a moment. Bakugo opened his mouth then closed it.

"What?"

"What are you going to do with that ring?"

I looked at my hands. Right now the ring was at the bottom of my drawer. I had to give it back. I had to leave Dabi behind. That wasn't my life anymore.

"I'm not sure. Right now it's in a safe spot." 

Bakugo nodded slowly and we sat in silence once again. 

Bakugo tensed, "What did it say?"

I didn't want to tell him, but I felt the need to. 

"He promised to get me out of that life. That's what the ring was for, a promise ring." I swallowed, "We've known eachother since we were kids. He doesn't deserve that life either, I didn't know at the time but he had been trying to get me out."

Bakugo hesitated,

"What did you do in the underground?"

" I worked nights at a factory. I was independently contracted by brokers to smuggle goods sometimes. I stayed away from the fighting. I don't like hurting people without reason."

Bakugo relaxed, "What does he do?"

"The same, except he works with the brokers more than I do. He was the one who collected me for jobs." I gulped, Dabi didn't really care if he hurt people

"Was he at the camp?"

I hesitated, "Yes."

He sighed.

"Did you see him at your apartment?"

"Yes." I said quietly

"Was he there when I got there?"

"Yes" I said barely above a whisper

He clenched his fists

"Did he give you those scars?"

"I had most of them already when he found me."

"Most of them." He growled

"Yeah, and now I have some from you." I gestured to my wing

He let out a sigh and I could feel him drift away from me.

Why would he want me? I was damaged and used. I said the wrong thing. I couldn't even tell him everything about Dabi and I. I never had a partner other than Dabi and that was nothing short of a shitshow. I just defended him to someone. I think I still love Dabi, but how does that even work. I told him I'd kill him the next time I saw him. No doubt he'd be trying to kill me. I felt tears flow down my face. I wanted to shrink into nothing. I felt strong arms wrap around me.

"Look at me" he growled

I looked up at Bakugo and he touched his forehead to mine.

"I'm so sorry Kai. I want to protect you. I want to help make you stronger. I promise I won't ever hurt you like that again. I want both of us to be the best that there ever was. Together, we will be undefeated. I don't care where you came from or what you had to do. What matters is that you're here now. You can decide if you want to be mine, but I am yours. Only yours."

 He had tears running down his face. I wiped them away and he held my hands in his. He looked at me with determination. I felt safe. I felt warm. I hugged him and we laid down together. He stroked my hair until I drifted off to sleep. 

Immense guilt built up in me once again, if I had never rebelled against Dabi, could this have been me and him instead?
