Reader POV
The moment her explosive classmate challenge her the first day she entered U.A, she can’t help but differentiate him from the rest of her classmate ever since.
The first thought that went through her mind after her fiery blond classmate challenge her was how arrogant he was but as they fought tooth and nail, she have to admit he has bite behind his bark.
She had like the exchange she had with him as he have turn her thinking of what she thought of him. She have thought of him as nothing but someone who is cocky just for having a strong quirk and yet he proved to her as someone who would gives everything he has to achieve what he want. He has a standing and she can’t help but respect him even if he’s a little cheeky in her opinion.
However because of her reserve attitude and how frustrated he seems after their training, she have decided to keep her distance from him but one by one, unexpected events led her to finding herself as a part of his gang.
Even though, she knows it’s not his intention to help her at all and he’s only force to teach her because of others, she’s still thankful at how it helped her mingle more with her classmate given that she have only met them.
From studying for her Japanese literature to just hanging out with him and their friends, slowly she can’t help but notice little things about Bakugou.
It’s all started once when he was hit by a quirk to which she have made fun of him nevertheless inside her, she realize she prefer Bakugou being the normal Bakugou Katsuki.
How hardworking he is in his goal of being number one, the confidence he have to not waver in any situation even his usual spitefulness and his brashness or bluntness at times. She can’t help but prefer them more than anything else even if others might see it as weird for liking them.
But at the end, it seems she have teased him a bit too much as it resulted in him ignoring her.
She could only chuckle and apologise before offering to treat him for some food to calm him down.
Once weekend came, she treated him for some spicy ramen and mapo tofu since she saw how he has a taste for spicy food.
Watching as their food was place in front of them, she has to admit that seeing Bakugou enjoying it, she quite like the sight and can’t help but smile even if by the end of the day, she has to secretly buy milk just to calm the stinging in her tongue and the oncoming stomach-ache throughout the night.
She have to admire her explosive friend for his extreme palate while hers are more notably milder even so that didn’t stop her from buying spicy snacks and stacks them in her room just so he could eat something while they’re studying together.
Well, thanks to it, her tolerance for spice got a bit higher even though she still finds them spicy.
She also learned how talented he is at cooking when she witnessed him cooking in their dorms kitchen.
Wanting to have a taste since it rare for him to cook, she pestered him for the next 20 minutes, much to Bakugou’s annoyance but with much pestering, she got a bite that ended with her knocking her forehead on the counter with such a defeated feeling.
He’s more wife material than anyone else with how delicious his food is, she lamented.
“Bakugou, are you trying to be someone wife or something? If so, can you become my wife instead your foods are delicious.”
“HAH!?”
Needless to say, it earned her a smack in the head.
Sitting in their dorms dinner tables, she decided to continue watching her blonde friend cook. Bakugou just gave her the cold shoulder as he continued stirring and adding seasoning on the food in front of him.
“...”
“...”
“Bakugou”
Her explosive friend stood rigid, waiting.
Oblivious, she blurted, “You should turn on the fan. Your face’s red like an octopus from cooking, even your ears.”
...
Let’s just say, it ended with her adoring another bump on the head.
As the year goes by and as they entered they’re last year in U.A, she did notice her feelings for her explosive friend change but the turning point really happened when an unexpected event occurred.
There once was an accident that happened in their hero internship that resulted in her hair being cut off however she has to cut the other excess as well as it got too damaged to salvage, resulting in her looking like a boy after.
Opening the door, she entered their class dorm, thinking how she wanted to take a bath quickly because of how tired she was and wanting to sleep right away and yet noticing the silence that surrounds their usually noisy dorm, she blinked as she saw her classmate look at her.
“What wrong?” She asked, raising a brow at them before all of them erupted, getting up from their sits and coming to her with a worried look.
“No! That’s what we should be asking you?! What happened to your hair?”
That when she remembered.
She quickly explains to them that it’s an accident during her intern and to make sure it’s nothing to worry about since it’s just hair and nothing more.
She knew what reactions her classmates would have once they saw her and yet what she didn’t expect though was how Bakugou would react.
After assuring her friends that there is nothing to worry about, she quickly headed for her room planning to rest however she immediately stops and look back.
A little ways away from her was Bakugou and the glare he was giving her made her want to take a step back at how intense he’s looking but she willed not too instead opted into giving him a strained smile, asking what’s wrong before he stormed to her, grabbing her head and smacking their forehead together.
“You little shit. It’s because of how you’re always fucking spacing around that this happened. You should be fucking more aware of your surrounding! What if it’s your stupid head that got hit instead! And not just your fucking hair?!”
“H-hah...”
Rubbing her forehead, she watch as her explosive friend started scolding her for being stupid, unsure of what to do since making any excuses would only make him explode more than he already does even so, something within her felt warm from his scolding even if he’s cursing a lot.
“Starting tomorrow afternoon, you’ll train with me. I’ll fuck you up until it’s drilled in your fucking head not to let your guard down, you idiot!”
“...Bakugou, you might be the one who would kill me instead of those villains.”
“Fucking hell I am!”
She could only laugh in return, her explosive friend click his tongue then grabbing her hand and walking to her room, yelling at her to bath at the same time he grumpily sat down and grab a book to read while waiting.
They spend the night watching and eating spicy snack after.
After their intern, they quickly went back to school like how they normally do however because of her new looks, it causes some uproar and by the end of the week, she’s always surrounded by female students, sometimes, even getting lunch boxes and sweets more than she usually gets.
She had no choice but to share it with her classmates seeing that there is no way she could eat them all.
Even though it felt like dumping the food to them, her classmates seems to have no problem at all and notice that the males were more than happy eating the foods she have receive but when she offered Bakugou if he wanted some, he refuse them so furiously while glaring the ones that was in her arms.
She even thought that the food would burn itself from the glares he’s giving them however when she was about to eat one, he suddenly snatch it then shoving it in his mouth before taking the rest, shoving and eating them with such fervour.
She watched in a dazed before laughing, “If you want it so bad, you could have said so. I would have given them to you but now I don’t have anything to eat. Hey, Kirishima-”
As she was about to asked her friend to share some to her, her blonde friend smacks her in the head, muttering, “Fucking dense idiot.” before leaving then coming back with a lunchbox which he send it flying to her head and without a word, slump beside her, giving her a glare not to say anything and just eat.
She thought, her explosive friend could be so weird at times but looking at the lunch box in her hand, she smiled.
She much prefer Bakugou’s lunch box than the ones she have receives since she find his food more delicious than anything.
And so without a thought, she ate it happily, not knowing Bakugou’s have gone through all many troubles to cook those foods into her preferred palate.
Everything felt peaceful but as their days goes by, she slowly felt something’s wrong.
Looking like a boy doesn’t really bother her however as she’s being flattered by other female students for her looks and other male students lamenting and crying for her being too handsome to take away their female classmates attention, something inside her slowly made her uncomfortable.
This started making her brood more recently, resulting in getting smack in the head by her explosive friend also.
She could only apologise for spacing out even though her fiery friend have been helping her train.
What she didn’t notice though were the looks that Bakugou’s giving her, frowning in annoyance but a tinge of concerned in his eyes.
Once night came, her classmates decided to go to their rooms to sleep while she decided to stay, bidding them good night.
It wasn’t long before she became absent-minded again, not caring anymore what’s been playing on the television in front of her.
She can’t help but think of what has been happening lately. Although, she’s flattered on being like by other students, the thought of how they started treating her so differently somehow made her insecure for some reason.
It also didn’t help that she have accidentally witness how Bakugou got a confession from a really beautiful girl.
Sure, she has teased him after about it but something started bugging her from the back of her mind.
Remembering such a beautiful girl with unblemished white skin, plump natural red lips, long eyelashes and a beautiful figure for a woman, she immediately felt sick to her stomach, her hands quickly coming up and grabbing a fistful of her short hair, the other covering her mouth.
She didn’t like it at all.
It made her think of how unfeminine she is even though she likes being how she is, being comfortable and friends with her male classmates, no barrier separating them with gender and feeling like their equal but ever since her hair was cut, she felt that she’s being treated differently almost like a boy.
It didn’t help that whenever she’s beside her explosive friend, she hated feeling how short her hair and how it started making her uncomfortable and insecure.
The change makes her dizzy and it’s starting to get overwhelming. It came to the point that it’s also becoming frustrating for her.
Immerse in her own thought, she didn’t notice someone approaching her not before they grab her by the collar of her shirt, forcing her to look up and coming to face two angry vermillion color eyes.
“Didn’t I told you not to let your guard down. I’ve been calling you multiple times already you little shit.”
He didn’t yell, only muttered but the threat behind it was serious.
Blinking, an apology left her mouth in reply, not knowing what to do when the person she’s thinking of suddenly is in front of her.
Letting go of her shirt, her friend grudgingly sat down beside her, crossing his arms, leaning on the sofa before giving her a pointed look, as if urging her to speak but she didn’t know what to say, her mind a mess.
“Again, you’re having a weird expression when you already have such a shitty face.”
“...weird face?”
Did she? Crap.
An uncertain laugh escapes her lips before she clasps her hands together, quickly bending down so as to hide her eyes from Bakugou.
“I’m sure I have always looked like this, Bakugou”
Wincing, what a poor attempt to hide everything from her perceptive friend.
“No it isn’t, just fucking spit it out.”
“...like I said, everything fi-“
“Fuck it is! If you don’t, I’m going to split that mouth of yours. Just having to see that mug face of yours again, I swear I’ll- Tch”
As if catching himself, her friend angrily clicks his tongue.
“...”
“...”
“...Say, Bakugou... Are you worried about me?” She teased.
“Hah!? The hell I am!?”
Watching her friend’s face turn to his usual comical outrage look, she couldn’t help but laugh quietly then covering her mouth as her friend look at her, annoyed but that didn’t stop the smile that stayed on her lips.
Having her feelings lifted a little, she finally decided to tell Bakugou, her worries and confusion at her current state.
How she likes being comfortable being who she is with their friends even though she act boyish at times but that just who she is. Someone who wants to enjoy and had fun with her friends while trying to be the hero she aspire to be however because of what’s happening lately, how she’s being treated as a boy she felt she have to give something.
Words after words coming out of her mouth while Bakugou looked at her at the corner of his eyes, listening intently.
It’s slowly sinking in that she doesn’t know anymore what to do at all.
“Who the hell said you have to give them the expectations they want from you.”
Her eyes widen before turning her head at her friend.
Bakugou look straight at her, continuing, “You are who you are, that’s all that matter. Just fuck those things and do everything at your own pace; you don’t have to force anything. To me, there is no difference from how you were before and what you are now.”
Slowly, the burden she have unknowingly put herself these past few weeks , lifted itself from her shoulders just by hearing his words.
Quickly turning her head away, she felt her eyes moisten uncontrollably but this time a sincere and carefree smile made its way on her lips, her chest bursting with relief, happiness, and unknown warmth and flattering feelings that made her fingers and ears tingle.
“Thank you Bakugou, really.”
She heard him scoff before telling to stop thinking such stupid things again.
Such rude remarks nonetheless the warmth in her chest spread even more in her and she can’t deny, she like the feeling.
Looking at her friend, she admitted,
“Whenever I walk with you these past few weeks, I can’t help but start feeling insecure on how unfeminine I have become.”
Bakugou look at her with surprise, a flash of concern appearing on his eyes but his female classmate continued,
“But hearing your words made me realise that no matter what, I really do like walking right beside you. Now that I think about it, whether if I look like a guy or not, I don’t really care anymore because not being able to walk beside you, I would hate that even more than anything.”
She confesses with a smile, before halting, the sight before of her made her heart beat faster.
Beside her, Bakugou, who was looking at her, is wide eyed, his face completely red even his ears before one of his hands instantly covered his face and averting his eyes as if he wanted to hide such a shameful expression however to her she can’t help but find it beautiful.
Just as she opened her mouth, Bakugou quickly stood up before storming off to the elevator.
“Bakugo-“
“Shut it, shit head!”
Quickly standing up and chasing after him, she saw him quicken his pace at the same time, punching the elevator button and stepping in once it opened.
But before he could close the elevator doors, she immediately ran the distance and entered, grabbing his hand despite his protest.
Seeing his flustered state, his cheeks red, eyes moist and trembling, something in her snap and made her realise something that she have been denying until now.
Grabbing the back of his head, she pinned him on the wall with such force before he could push her away and without a word, she connected their lips and kissed him with everything she have buried for so long.
‘Ah, I’m a fool. I have been in love with him all along.’
