โฆ๏ธfirst things first, an ariesโ patience runs thinner than air
โฆ๏ธ they become irritated with people who push their buttons, since they are not pushovers. this can cause them to react easily or be impulsive. all it takes is a certain word or look to ignite their fire. this can either be a good thing or a not so good thing. but once you get them going itโs hard for to simmer them down.
โฆ๏ธaries placements prefer the blunt and honest truth from others, they donโt like beating around the bush. so when someone around them isnโt straightforward it ticks them off. they are very honest and sometimes it intimidates others although they feel like they are being very sweet. most of them are misunderstood for this.
โฆ๏ธthey like things in their life to be fast paced and upfront so if youโre not ready to jump in the fire donโt try it with an aries.
โฆ๏ธaries are usually super competitive. when challenged they will prove themselves worthy.
โฆ๏ธbasically like like a young, underestimated child who wants to prove that they are capable of doing everything you said they cannot do.
โฆ๏ธ they donโt like being embarrassed or bossed around and feel better when everything goes their way.
โฆ๏ธsince they are cardinal signs, they like to make their own rules and lead the battle. they thrive in leadership roles being direct and taking decisive, swift actions.
โฆ๏ธ aries are the true femme fatales. their love affairs are hot and steamy.
โฆ๏ธ sweet affections of romance itself isnโt strong enough for them, they need it mixed with thrill and danger for the highest stimulation possible.
โฆ๏ธif an aries is interested in you they will pursue you immediately or show you blatantly they are interested. if they are not interested, yikes, they will throw you a blunt rejection pill. they are assertive and see no reason to lie and waste their precious time. If they canโt feel the fire with you, then there is no reason to be with you.
โฆ๏ธ they have no problem feeling worthy and have high self esteem. in a way they have an air of entitlement like โi deserve the worldโ and they do.
โฆ๏ธif you are willing to offer them something they wonโt hesitate to take it. to others, it can look like arrogance but they just know that they deserve the best and only the best.
โฆ๏ธ they are often on edge with the authority figures in their lives. an aries will never tolerate being told what to do (especially with no say). so i have noticed they move out of their homes early to live a life of freedom, where they can do whatever the fuck they want.
โฆ๏ธaries placements makes a person independent but sometimes they become too independent to where they want to do everything by themselves. they donโt want anyone saying โi helped youโ orย โ i made youโ. they would rather take full credit of building themselves.
โฆ๏ธwith that being said, they donโt stand in anyoneโs shadow and have no reason to.ย they can stand fully on their own two feet and make anything happen. they trust in their abilities and self with no second thought.
โฆ๏ธaries own who they are and are self assured in their skin. you will rarely see them insecure or nervous.
โฆ๏ธiโve noticed that aries people like to stay up to date, have the latest technology, gadgets and whatnot. they love to change their environment upย before it gets dull.
โฆ๏ธthey seem to have endless internal and external energy. with all this exuberance, they are known for having expressive personalities. you may notice when an aries steps in the room by their big smiles, loud voices or laughs, and their bold presence.
โฆ๏ธaries are creators of their own fate. they follow their passions, fight for their dreams and protect their vision. they cannot let anyone rip it away, if you try you may loose them forever.
โฆ๏ธthey puts themselves under pressure sometimes to succeed and are constantly pushing themselves to do greater. but they know what their strengths and weakness are and how play on them.
โฆ๏ธthey always dancing and moving around. they just have a lively aura to them.
โฆ๏ธfrom very early on they notice their potential and walk with their head held high. they know they are meant to be somebody and that they are an embodiment of the divine structure.
โฆ๏ธaries can be gifted with the a vivid imagination and intense ambition. they see what they want and have all the fire in their hearts to go and get it.
โฆ๏ธan aries wonโt wait around for you to make things happen for them, they make things happen on their own. and if they have to walk alone, they will because deep down they understand that the only one that can fix their problems and give them a better life, are themselves.

Kirishima Eijirou treats you as if he's still your suitor even if he's your boyfriend since freshmen year. He pursued and flirted with you for a month before confessing that he liked you. The red-haired boy courted you during the second and third week of second semester of your freshmen year and you answered him immediately because, 'Life is short'.
Your other blockmates always see him bringing your heavy copy of lectures and two cups of iced coffee on the other hand. He pays for your snacks and milk tea even though, you told him you can buy it for yourself. Side note, you would sneak money on his wallet when he goes to the rest room tho. His parents worked themselves to give HIM allowance (not you) and the both of you are still students, you can finance yourself just fine.
"Eijirou~" you drawled out as the red-haired man scribbled notes for his class. He raised his brow at you and you did a flower pose where you cupped your chin, smiling cheekily at your boyfriend. "Are you done, yet?" He chuckled at your question and shaked his head. Staying at the library with aircon makes you sleepy and as you yawn, Eijirou also yawned. He has decided to finish his notes and homework so he can spend time with you and of course, at the gym.
Kirishima would always make you tag along with him in the gym and sometimes at the boxing center to make you watch him or learn some techniques. He insisted and asked your parents to make you take self-defense classes because aside from being a good workout, it is also essential for everyone regardless of gender. Remembering the body aches and nights where you have to ice your sore muscles made you wince. Huffing, you stood up and started to browse the bookshelves. If you're going to be bored, you should absorb new knowledge or data of the world. Of course, it's also to fill Kirishima's head with new random information as a payback.
You decided to settle for a romance book in the fiction section, lightly treading to go back to your boyfriend, another book caught your eye and you picked it up. Business for beginners, it read. You read a few pages of the book when you got bored and kicked Kirishima's shin underneath the table.
'I'm bored.' you mouthed at him and he only reached for your hand and wrote on it.
'Go get some lunch.'
You shaked your head to disagree and mouthed at him again. 'Let's eat lunch together, idiot.'

Eijiro sometimes wonder how he landed such a nice girlfriend. "Babe, this is not my order." he whispered when the waiter walked away from your table. You asked him his order and looked at the receipt you both received. The waiter accidentally switched the orders, Eijiro was waiting for you to get angry but you didn't. He watched you stand up and went to the counter with the wrong meal given to him. You smiled at the cashier and gently requested for the meal written on the receipt.
"What? They told me they haven't slept yet and are only part-timing here. No need to get angry at them. They're sorry about it because, it's their first day." The both of you finished eating and you quickly cleaned your plate, arranged the used utensils and placed it neatly on the tray.
"Baby, your roots are showing. Should we swing by the drugstore to buy hair dye?" Kirishima touched his hair on a low ponytail and kissed your forehead, murmuring his thanks for reminding him about his dyed hair.
Smart. Pretty. Funny. Witty. Caring. Kirishima felt extremely lucky as he watched you tie your hair in a half up half down hairdo. "I really have a crush on you." He's not afraid to express his feelings towards you as he blushed, making you chuckle. "I have a crush on you too, Kirishima."

Other people may view your relationship with each other as easy going and chill. They even ask the both of you on how you handle fights and quarrels, knowing that you're the hot-headed in the relationship.
"Communication and Acceptance. Actually, it is a bit of clichรฉ whenever I say those words. There are a lot of factors to consider when you're committed to a person, I chose Kirishima. I can easily say those words but, no one knows if I'll still love him tomorrow." You took a deep breath and sighed. You lost your train of thoughts and massaging your temples you cleared your throat.
Kirishima saw you talking to a friend and decided to stop walking. He marvels at the way you threw your head back, laughing and eyes sparkling. Your voice was loud and it was his favorite sound. When he heard his name, he perked up and smiled. Eavesdropping became a habit to him and he's sure that you'll have his balls at the end of the day.
"Take two. I chose Kirishima to be my person. Frankly, relationships gets boring after a long time but the secret of how we kept the passion alive is because we choose each other everyday. Love is a fickle emotion and you need to get ready once, your partner falls out of love. Kirishima is an amazing person and one of a kind, I actually wonder why of all people he can have a crush on, he chose me. Maybe it's my face," The red-haired boy nodded. He did liked you because of how you looked but once he started to know you, he just fell hard.
"But, he still chooses to be playful. He chooses to be honest, kind, respectful of my decisions, respecting other people, respecting the nature. He chooses to treat me as if he's still courting me and he's always an open book. I think that's the secret of our relationship. I remember asking him, "Do you think you can be my boyfriend?" and you know what he said?" You can't stop the incoming grin at your mouth and Kirishima couldn't take the embarassment. He was embarrassed and at the same time, proud of what he told you.
"If I'm your boyfriend, I intend to be the very last. I will treasure you and court you everyday." You heard your boyfriend's voice and you squealed. He smiled at you as you kissed his cheeks as a greeting. The person talking to you can't help but roll their eyes at the public display of affection.

Bakugou Katsuki was an asshole who confessed to you first and became scared of his own feelings.
"I have a crush on you." Bakugou Katsuki confessed to you with the sunset, bleeding orange behind him. The color of his hair and the scent of the sea seemed to blur your senses altogether. Vermillion orbs staring into your soul that he knows inside out.
He knows you also have feelings for him.
You weren't dumb, or assuming from the start that Bakugou developed feelings for you but, it was there. You saw the signs of him slowly but, surely solidifying your theory and assumption. Bakugou Katsuki have a crush on you.
With a slight tint of pink dusting his cheeks, you know he's being serious.
โก โก โก โก
It started when he gave you his favorite shirt after a celebration.
His voice becomes a lot softer when the two of you were speaking to each other.
He took time to pass by your classroom and ask how you're holding up with classes.
He would tutor you before periodical exams.
You remembered the time when you stayed up late to review for a test you didn't ask him to tutor you because, you were shy. He noticed that your head kept falling down during lunchtime while he's reminding Kirishima about Financial Math formulas and he bought a decaffeinated coffee for you, walked you back to your room and reminded you in the gentlest way possible.
He asks you out on 'friendly dates' that mainly consists of cafรฉs, amusement parks and escape rooms.
He would read your favorite books no matter which genre it is.
"After exams, get some sleep. Okay? You worked really hard. So whether you get a high or low score, you did your best. Get some sleep, dumbass."
He was not one to do things half-assed. You know he researched about relationships, dates and compatibility. He was the one who told you to be the very best, to give your all and that it doesn't matter as long as you come out on top.
โก โก โก โก
That kind of setup continued until the both of you graduated from high school. After-school dates, cute pictures that the social media never saw and intimacy that only the two of you knew. A lot of people from your batch had a feeling that Bakugou Katsuki is yours as much as you're his. But, the both of you were stuck in a no-label relationship.
It's kind of funny tho.
He was the one who fell first.
So, why the hell?
Why the hell did you fell harder?
You were easing him into a relationship. He can't keep on leading you around with uncertainties. You were ready to be in a relationship because, you knew Bakugou Katsuki.
You know how much he values other people's opinions.
You know how he's fascinated with saving other people and making an impact in their life.
You know him.
โก โก โก โก
You were like a bomb wrapped with lace and bows. Ticking and it's getting louder inside his head. Bakugou also knew that he was leading you on and sooner or later, you'll leave him. That's why he went hot and cold on you because, he knows you. He knew how you loved the chase.
He knew how to keep you occupied.
He knew how you get bored around people who's constant with you.
He knows you.
โก โก โก โก
You both exploded in the moment you've never expected.
It was suppose to be a cute date, hanging out with cats and catching up since the both of you don't attend the same university.
Bakugou noticed your silence and short answers. When he asked if you're sleepy, you gave him a gentle smile that stabbed his heart. When he asked if you wanted another serving of the sandwich, you would point at a cat. Whenever he opened a topic you would quickly wrap it up by asking a staff to take pictures of the both of you. Deep in his bones, he knew he was hurting you and with you acting like you didn't know what he's doing, irritated him to no end.
You enveloped his big warm hand and sighed when he didn't resist your touch.
You had to end this.
Bakugou can't think straight when you asked him to take you home immediately. You were both quiet and as still as the calm sea before one of you broke.
Was it you?
Was it him?
You can't remember because, all you can hear was him trying to appease you. You were asking for assurance, for security and a relationship with label. But, you touched his nerve and called him as someone with a hero complex.
"You're selfish then!" Bakugou shouted back and you shut your mouth. You felt bile creeping up your stomach, your entire body went cold and tears fell down your eyes without meaning to. Your brain was panicking and trying to formulate something to say.
Nothing.
You wanted to hurt him back. You wanted to hurt him. He knew that you hated being called selfish. But, he went ahead and did it.
Maybe you also deserved to be called one.
You could only smile at him while he gripped the steering wheel as his knuckles turned white. "Yes, Katsuki. I am selfish. I'm a selfish person because, I know what I deserve. And this? This is bullshit. We're both in college and in a few years, we'll be graduating and after that, we'll find jobs. Where will I be in your life? Youโre also selfish!"
"Maybe this is me being selfish but, I'm tired of the guessing game and keeping myself in check in terms of boundaries." You mustered courage to look at him and when you did, his eyes was glassy from the unshed tears at bay. "If you're scared, that's okay. I'm also scared but, we're going to be together."
"You're my..." Bakugou seemed to stop in his tracks in realization that he never asked you to be his girlfriend. He just went with the flow and the routine of inviting you out for dates was comforting to him.
You're a constant in his life and with you gradually changing, it scared him.
You were about to reach out when Bakugou slapped your hand away.
"We're in front of your house." He said, looking outside the tinted window and you didn't say anything anymore.
The silence held more answers than him.
โก โก โก โก
After that disastrous date, you were hoping to patch things up with Bakugou. You're both not in the right headspace that time and you're more than ready to explain things with him when you decided to let Bakugou kneel before you.
You were hoping that he'll understand and realize his actions.
Maybe, he'll change. He just needs a little push.
You were never a pushy person but, Bakugou needs a push to realize a lot of things.
Not.
How wrong you were.
He didn't contact you that day.
It turned into a week.
You thought that the both of you were playing the cold shoulder game.
Then, it became a month.
A whole year.
You realized.
Bakugou Katsuki is slowly but, surely falling out of love.
โก โก โก โก
You only heard about him from Kirishima.
โWhat? Youโre both fighting? Bakugou never said anything!โ The red-haired boy told you as he accompanied you around the campus.ย A shawarma on one hand and lemonade on the other. โI thought youโre both in a relationship because, heโs so jealous of other people. Thereโs no label? Why is he a bit of a blockhead?โ You laughed along him but, thereโs a storm brewing in your mind.
Heโs dumping you.
You made yourself better. You discovered new hobbies, developed new habits and became more competitive than ever. You were doing great by yourself. Without the presence of the blonde-haired boy.ย
You had a lot of suitors who were willing to give you the world but, youโve decided to wait for him before doing anything.
You were silently giving him a chance to explain his actions.
And of course, all you got was silence.ย
Again.
โก โก โก โก
Bakugou Katsuki entered your life again in a bizarre way. He texted you to catch up but you were giving him a one-liner replies. He persisted and was determine to know the new you but, you werenโt to be fooled.
He never explained.ย
You just exploded because, he wanted to enter you life as if he didnโt left you scrambling for answers. As if it wasnโt a year that he went cold on you. You were so angry that you texted him your real emotions.
๐: What the hell do you want? Why the fuck did you came back? What do you want to happen?
๐: Why are you acting as if nothing happened? As if you didnโt do anything wrong towards me? As if you didnโt call me selfish? You pushed me away that night, Katsuki.
๐: You were the one who drove me away.
You know youโre being petty but, youโre so done with his actions. You needed to let it out and tell him the truth because, you donโt want to pent it up. You need to tell him everything.
He wants to know everything? Youโll give him EVERY SINGLE EMOTION you felt.ย
๐: What even are we? Friends? Super friends? What the fuck do you want from me?!
๐: What do you want to happen? Am I really selfish? Because right now, youโre the one whoโs selfish. What the fuck do you want? You made me believe that I was so hard to love because, I wanted a label. I wanted assurance and security.
๐: I was only asking for assurance, Katsuki.
๐: You didnโt give it because, you canโt.
๐: You never even asked for forgiveness nor explained your actions. You are such a coward. You only lead me on because youโre scared to lose me yet, you canโt commit.
๐: Letโs end this. I donโt want to feel shitty anymore.ย
โก โก โก โก
He panicked after reading your message. Bakugou Katsuki never panics, he does get nervous but, he never panics. Until now. When he read your message, the only emotion running his body was fear.ย
Youโre right, he was terrified to lose you.
But, heโs scared of hurting you.
He's not exactly the boyfriend type but, he's willing to become one for you. He just didn't know how to say it to you without looking pathetic.
๐ฅ: Please. Let's talk. I'll tell you everything.
๐ฅ: Let's talk please.
โก โก โก โก
Despite your close friends saying that you should drop Bakugou and leave him behind because you deserve better, you would defend him. And maybe you are really a fool hopelessly in love with someone who canโt stomach the idea of vulnerability and being exposed that youโre willing to tear yourself down for him. The thought of ruining him for other women clouded your mind and heart. You wanted to be the only girl in his life, you wanted to hurt him to the point that he wonโt think of getting romantically involved with others.
Youโre the best heโll never have.ย
Ever.
When he sent you that message, youโre suddenly reminded of the nights you woke up crying. You suddenly remembered the days when you would overwork yourself to distract your heart from the pain heโll inevitably cause. You remembered praying to no one, asking to take the pain away.ย
If I am not the girl for him please, make him strong enough to face his fears alone. I donโt want to be hurt anymore. Please, make him stronger once I leave his life. I am asking this because I know in myself that I can handle the pain. I can deal with the aftermath. If this is what fate has in store for the both of us, be it.
With a heavy but determined heart, you replied to Bakugou.
๐: Letโs meet but, I also have a condition. Letโs pretend that we didnโt fight.
๐: Letโs have a date for the very last tim
You deleted your follow-up reply and threw your phone at the bed. Sighing as you chose your clothes, and you saw his favorite shirt. It wasnโt worn out since you kept it at the back of your cabinet and only wore it when you needed. You decided to give it back to him.
Youโre erasing traces of Bakugou Katsuki in your life.
Bakugou didnโt knew that you were prepared to leave him. He sighed a breath of relief and thought of how to make it up to you. He started to list the places he wanted to visit with you. Heโs determined to make it the very best date in your life.
โก โก โก โก
The both of you went on a date and you were back to your old bubbly self that gave Bakugou a sense of familiarity and security, not knowing that youโll break him. A museum date, a cafรฉ date, escape room date, library date and movie date. You gave in to your heartโs desire and held his hand throughout the day. He gave you a bright smile and you stared at him in adoration. He was trying to get out of his comfort zone by being chattier and more open about what heโs thinking about. Your heart clenched tight as you can see that heโs trying to be better.
Iโm sorry.
Youโre reciting it in your mind like a mantra. You glanced at your watch and tugged his hand.ย
โLetโs go to the sea where you confessed to me.โ You said with an innocent smile that made Bakugou remember why he fell for you in the first place.
I love her, so much. I donโt want to lose her. I love her smile. I love the way she appreciates everything in life. I love her determination. I love her, so much. I donโt want her to leave me. Iโm sorry, if Iโm selfish. I canโt let her go, she deserves so much more.ย
โKi? Letโs go?โ You didnโt notice how his knees became weak when you stared at him in expectation. He wanted to tell you how much he loves you but, he canโt. He still canโt and heโs hoping that youโre going to give him a chance to tell you that.
He loves you.
โก โก โก โก
"You know, I realized a lot of things when we were apart." You confessed to him with the sunset, bleeding red behind you. The color of your hair and the scent of the sea seemed to blur Bakugouโs senses altogether. You were staring at his eyes and soul, tearing it slowly. Your warm hands enveloped his cold ones and you smiled.
The greatest nightmare that Bakugou didnโt want to confront was dished to him without any warning.ย
โBakubro, with what youโve done to her I think sheโll leave you for good. You left her without any explanations and you want her in your life?โ Kirishimaโs statement echoed in his mind.ย
โI love you.โ He whispered, just enough for the both of you to hear and you laughed softly. As if that can make you stay. Shaking your head as if what he told you was a joke, squeezing his hands you only nodded.
โI loved you too, Ki.โ Your smile was genuine and he didnโt have the heart to argue with you nor raise his voice. He doesnโt have the right and itโs wrong. He wanted you to stay. He wants you in his life. You canโt do this to him. No. That wasnโt what he wanted to hear. No past tenses. This wasnโt according to his plan.ย
โI loved you so much thatโs why I donโt want to hurt you anymore. Letโs not hurt each other anymore. I want to love again, wholeheartedly. I donโt want to hurt you or myself. Weโll never work out.โ The sound of the sea seemed to be too loud for his ears. He waited for you to laugh or give the punchline but, you didnโt.
He wasnโt dumb, he just didnโt want to accept that youโre leaving him.
You let go of his hand and he wanted to snatch it back but, when he saw you pulling out the same shirt that he thought he lost, he didnโt want to show the shock on his face. It was in your possession. He forgot that he gave it to you. โIโm giving this back to you, Bakugou Katsuki. Letโs not contact each other anymore.โย
โI love you. Be my girlfriend. Iโll be better, please? Please. Donโt leave me.โ Katsuki almost went down on his knees when you pulled him up. You donโt want to leave him looking so pitiful.ย
โDonโt kneel. What youโre doing will not change my mind anymore, Bakugou. Iโve given you many chances to explain yourself and I donโt want uncertainties in my life anymore. Maybe, youโre thinking that I love the chaos but, I want peace. Especially in love, I donโt want sleepless nights where I ask no one if you still love me. I am done with that. 5 years of uncertainties, push and pull and mind games.โ Your voice was shaking and he wanted to hug you but when he made a move, you crossed your arms.
He wanted to suffer in your anger. He wanted you to scream at him, he wanted to hear that you hate him. He can work with that. He can melt your anger but, when he felt that youโre empty. He lost hope.
He knew he lost you.
โWhat about my decision? My opinion in this relationship?โ He asked and you laughed loudly, it should be a pleasant sound but it sounded like a broken recording that etched itself in his brain.
โWhat relationship? This? This is not a relationship, Bakugou. We can walk away from each other anytime. There is NO relationship. I am walking away because, Iโm done with this.โ You wanted to stop yourself from breaking his heart but, this ugly monster rearing your heart to become cruel won at the moment.
โWhat about me?โ Bakugou Katsuki felt himself break and you can only stare at him without any emotion. What about him? He broke your heart continuously. He broke you.ย
โYou chose this, Bakugou. You ignored me for a whole year, you can do it again. This time, you need to do it longer. 5 years? A decade? Letโs not contact each other again.โ
You weren't dumb, or assuming from that Bakugou still have feelings for you but, it was there. You saw the signs of him being in love with you. Bakugou Katsuki was finally in love with you.
With tears running down your cheeks, you gave him one last smile.
โLetโs not hurt each other anymore, okay? Take care of yourself.โ You went to hug him one last time and when you did, he wrapped his arms around you. He didnโt want to let go. You tapped his back until, he was done.
โก โก โก โก
Sometimes, letting go of the person you love the most is the most excruciating moment in your life. But, you donโt deserve a half-assed relationship or situationship. You deserve so much more than a love that is uncertain. You deserve someone who would love you as much as you love them. You deserve someone who can communicate their thoughts and actions towards you. Youโre too full of life and love to be in a half-hearted relationship.
Bakugou looked from afar as you walked with Shinso, your tiny hand wrapped around the lavender-haired man. Shinso was carrying your tote bag and smiling as you talked animatedly about something. Bakugou wanted to shove him off of you and challenge him but, when Kirishima snapped him back to reality he doesnโt want to accept.
โBakubro, stop glaring at them like that. You know youโre the one who lost her, donโt do anything to make her sad again.โ Everyone at the Bakusquad was careful around him as heโs still in the foulest mood they ever knew. As if you have a sixth sense, you looked at their place and tugged Hitoshiย
โOh! Kiri! This is my boyfriend, Shinso Hitoshi. Heโs from the Aviation course.โ Your voice was full of pride that the man in your arms canโt help but blush at your actions. You were proudly showing off your boyfriend and Bakugou canโt help but grit his teeth.ย
He wanted to be in his place. He wanted you to show him off, too. He wanted to be the one beside you. Not, him.
content: fem!reader, non-quirk au. fluff. they're high school students. reader is from humanities strand. bakugou is in-denial
Reader was tasked to perform a speech in a random class section. Katsuki crushes on reader first and was emotionally constipated about it.ย
The first time Bakugou Katsuki saw you made him think that you're a big flirt. You know how to get boys eating at the palm of your hands, make them sit or beg and he definitely saw you giving Izuku a smile that he can call as "ethereal" as you ask him for a favor of borrowing his Math notebook. Now, don't get him wrong. He doesn't know your name or which strand were you from. He just knows he doesn't like you, at all.
The second time Bakugou Katsuki saw you was when you were with your friends at the canteen horsing around. Hugging an extra from the back as they feed you some yoghurt to which he mentally takes note of. Your hair was pulled back by a headband which exposed your forehead, making you look younger and full of life.
"You know her? You're staring too hard at her! She's from the humanities! She's a great speaker! I hope she performs in our class." Denki elbowed Bakugou as he scowled. What's so great about her? She looks like another extra. As if you sensed them talking about you, your head immediately looked at them and you waved in greeting. Another smile plastered on your lips.
โก โก โก โก โก
The first time you saw Bakugou Katsuki, you didn't liked him. The way his voice would startle you as he called to his friends. It's like second nature for you to flinch away from loud things and people. The reason was that being highly-sensitive, you get tired and annoyed with your surroundings. So, when you hear his voice, you shrink away. You know Bakugou Katsuki, blonde-haired and foul tempered but, intelligent and competitive. You know he's from the Science department and you don't like him.
The second time you saw him was during the Mythology Quizbee. Your group was up against his, and you almost cried when you ran out of ink. Bakugou sneered at you and heavens forbid, you almost slammed his head with your small whiteboard. But the unexpected part was that he threw you a marker, told you to get your shit together and fight him fairly.
"You know him? He's bad news." Was all your friend murmured as she caught you staring at Bakugou.
"Just curious."
โก โก โก โก
"There are times when I would wake up in the middle of the night, after my first heartbreak, wondering and crying, where did I go wrong? I would often stop at my tracks as tears would form in my eyes and this knot in my throat gets tighter." Bakugou seemed entranced as you did your speech in front of his class. Your eyes weren't teary but, he sensed the sadness and longing in it. "My friends would say that I deserve better. That I needed someone who can make me happier and won't treat me like a toy. Pick me up when you need me and drop me when you don't." He clenched his fist underneath the desk, the quiver on your voice shocked his core.
He doesn't know you so, why does he feel protective?
"Falling in love, now that was a fun trick. Love makes you weak. It makes you patient, it makes you breathe for the sole purpose of the other person. And maybe, I was wrong in the way of loving him but, when I love,โ You took a deep breath and let your eyes roam, settling on the blonde-haired boy who was staring at you with his red eyes.ย โI love unconditionally. Youโre the only one in my eyes and I will never hurt you.โ You slowly grinned before giving him a full-blown smile and Bakugou felt his heart clench in a painful manner.
What was that?!
Bakugou suddenly felt his senses in-tuned with the way you move in front of his class. The sound of the ceiling fan and aircondition was way too loud, the sun-rays seemed too kiss your skin perfectly and he was hyper-aware of your existense.
No.
No.
No. No. No. No. He is not developing a crush on you. Blood rushed to his cheeks when you caught his eyes, giving him another small smile. You were just there.
The speech was finished and you were bowing, giving his classmates a rating card that will determine your grade and everyone was complimenting you. He suddenly felt a bit idiotic for thinking that you only smiled at him. You were the star and he's an extra in the audience.
โก โก โก โก
Bakugou Katsuki avoided you like the plague well, you didn't feel his avoidance because you were too busy with your studies, school organization works and hobbies to see him fumbling around you. He avoided you as if his life depended on it but, he can't help but listen to your laugh when your friend group would brush past his group.
I do not have a crush on her. I can't have a crush on her.
"Bakubro, are you okay? You look sweltering? Do you wanna go to the nurse's office?" Kirishima asked his friend and he nodded, feeling weak in the knees as you went on lightly with your steps. You reminded him of a pixie, fleeting from one flower to another. Plucking hearts of people without even realizing it.
You entered the nurse's office because you weren't feeling well from the heat. The sound of someone breathing was a good indication that someone else was with you because, you're scared of being alone in a room.
"Hi! What can I do for you?" You smiled at the nurse and told her that you're a bit dizzy from the heat of the afternoon sun.
"Just rest near that boy and I'll fetch some water. No hanky panky tho!" She giggled and hopped on her way out. You didn't mind her and pulled out a romance novel from your pocket.
โก โก โก โก
"Really? A romance novel?" You almost shrieked when you heard a sleepy voice from the patient near your bed. His blonde hair was a bit of a mess but, the smell of cookies and caramel coming off of him made you comfortable.
It was Bakugou Katsuki.
"Of all things I could dream about, it's her. It's her. Reading a goddamned romance novel in the clinic. Ain't it a bit clichรฉ?" He snapped his fingers in front of you and sneered. "I don't have a crush on you, got it? So get out of my dreams and ignore me. You're a playgirl. A klutz. You're clumsy. Smart. You beat me in some competitions. So, I can't have a crush on you."
You were wondering if you're the one who's dreaming because, Bakugou Katsuki is confessing to you?
"I can't have a crush on you because, you're so out of my league." He finished his ramblings, lied back down, turned his back on you and slept again. It baffled you. Adding more questions than statement in your mind.
Does he like me or hate me?
โก โก โก โก
Bakugou Katsuki woke up feeling refreshed and cool. He noticed someone else taking a nap on the clinic bed near his and only saw the Romance book clutched in their fists. Your back turned away from him and a blanket covering your form.
"Oh, Katsuki! Just sign your signature here and you can go back to your classroom." The school nurse urged him with a smile on her lips and he scowled. The blonde boy pulled his own pen from his pocket and scanned the paper.
I think I had a dream where I said some things to her.
He shrugged it off and signed his name on the form when he saw yours next to his. He stormed back in the rest area and gingerly lifted the blanket.
โคท Bakugou
he hates losing or being behind someone, itโs a horrible feeling that he hates with all his heart. but for you, he can learn to accept. he doesnโt complain or curse when youโre better than him in a test or game - even because he let you win. itโs something he would kill to get, but now, he would kill to make you win, because your smile and your well-being are priceless.
โคท Deku
he would give you anything you want; are you looking for a certain food or drink? heโs already getting it for you without question. itโs movie night and you want to watch a movie that no one else wants to watch? one way or another heโs going to make sure youโre watching that movie. he just wants to see you happy - and also because he likes to pamper you. the second you arrive, his friends are rolling their eyes because they know how much heโs wrapped around your finger, just a fool in love.
โคท Kirishima
youโre the only person who can play with his hair. itโs hard for him to get his hair the way he likes it and he does his best to make sure other people donโt ruin all the effort he put in, but youโre different; he doesnโt mind you playing or running your fingers through his hair, he loves the feeling and loves you enough to let you do whatever you want with his hair.
โคท Todoroki
he always seems serious and closed with people, but with you itโs different. you are the only person who sees his true side; the fun, spontaneous and loving side of him. youโre one of the few people whoโs ever heard his laugh, or made him slow dance in the kitchen with you. you are the only person he allows himself to be, you are always the one for him.
โคท Denki
he always lets you stop him, always reckless in stupid decisions in which heโll obviously get hurt; all his friends tell him not to do it and he ignores until it comes from you. you donโt find it funny when he shorts circuits, you donโt laugh when heโs in danger, you want the best of him and thatโs why he listens to you, and only you
โคท Tamaki
he brings small gifts constantly. he canโt stop thinking about you and in everything he sees he sees you; whether itโs a coffee at that coffee shop at the end of the street that he knows you like, or that flower he saw in a tree on his way home. every little gift has meaning and a little bit of his heart. he just walks into the room with the sweetest smile to say โi have something for you my loveโ
โคท Shinsou
he gives you all his love and affection; itโs like he freely gives his heart to you, when it comes to you, heโd give you the entire galaxy if he could. he would let you do anything; playing with his hair, stealing his clothes, eating his last piece of pizza.. he is also more affectionate physically like; he gives you long and warm hugs, soft and long kisses until you lose your breath, plays with your hair while he look through his cell phone, pulls you into his lap... he loves you with all his heart, and only you.
โคท Hawks
shows you off in every way possible - honestly, most of the time he doesnโt even realize heโs doing it. heโs always looks in love with you like โwow, youโre so perfect for meโ. he also gets his eyes in his heart looking at you but still doesnโt understand how people guessed you were dating... but he honestly doesnโt complain, it just makes him show you even more to others because he wants to show everyone that he has the world in his hands.
โคท Dabi
youโre the only person he really likes to be around. he wants your presence all the time; itโs not that heโs suffocating you, itโs just that he wants to be surrounded by you all the time. like he could literally spend 48 hours locked in a room with you and still feel like he needs more time - like no you canโt leave, weโre not done yet. no matter how much time you spend with him, it will never be enough for him and he will never get tired of your delightful presence; he truly cherishes you and wants nothing more than to give you all of the love he can for as long as possible. your existence alone to him is so mesmerizing, he really doesnโt understand how youโre his or what he did to deserve you.
โคท Shigaraki
he hates to be interrupted while playing, but you are always an exception; when you arrive in the room he always looks quickly at you and takes a headset out of his ear, attentive to anything you are going to say. if you are sad or discouraged. he lets you sit on his lap and he listens intently to everything you have to say. but if you want, heโll even turn off the computer/video game because he really cares about you - but heโs a little upset that you made him left the game when he was about to win, but he put this aside and focus on you; because what matters most is you, and always you.
@httptamakiโ Ahhh hihihi! Iโm your secret santa for this year.ย I amย hoping you didnโt work out it was me!! I got super excited when you said you loved Band AUs but Iโm so sorry if I butchered one ofย your faves. Happy holidays my lovely๐ (I stole one of my own Bakugou WIPs for this so if you heard me talking about this idea before no you did not-)
Summary: Youโre a photographer working for one of the biggest musicians in the world, Eraserhead. It should be your dream job, but unfortunately life is not that easy. Enemies to Lovers (one-sided!), Band AU.
Pairing: musician!Aizawa Shouta x photographer!f!Reader
The roar of the crowd rang out over the heavy bass of the speakers on either side of the arena, drums sounding from the back of the stage as the band played into their first song. This was the place you truly felt alive, the flashing lights contrasting against the darkness of the crowd as you angled the lens towards the frontman. Snapping picture after picture as you tried to catch him in the most iconic poses, before turning to focus on his bandmates. As the heavy guitars pounded through the speakers you couldnโt deny they put on a great performance, the crowds roaring behind you as you had a front-row seat to the show. Being Eraserheadโs photographer wasnโt easy, but gigs like these allowed you to forget about the baggage your job came with.
Recognising the song Duality was coming to an end you took the opportunity to change the settings on your camera, balancing the ISO to counteract the change in lighting as you focused back in on Aizawa. Knowing that he was about to speak to the crowd as a roadie ran out on stage to hand him an acoustic guitar. The rest of the band went backstage as a simple microphone stand was placed in front of him. Knowing the setlist like the back of your hand, you were excited for him to begin performing your favourite song.
Before youโd secured the job working for Eraserhead, you couldnโt deny you were a fan. Each LP sat proudly near the top of your Spotify most played, and you were certain youโd worn his CDs down the number of times they played in your car. But itโs true what they say, you should never meet your heroes because usually, they turn out to be assholes.
And Aizawa? He was the biggest fucking asshole youโd ever met.
this is a safe zone for me to let out something. i also have a bakugou in my life. he's not that loud or angry all the time but, he's grumpy. i hated him when i first met him because, i felt like he could destroy me. but during my darkest days he was the only person who stayed and encouraged me to enjoy life. now, he's leaving me because he doesn't want to hurt me anymore than this. he wanted to cut me off of his life.
i'm giving him a bakugou shirt, bakugou and ochaco acrylic keychain, a tarot deck, bracelets (one of them is a match to my earrings), 3 letters, and annotated book.
i'm definitely keeping his favorite shirt tho.
MIGHT BITE HIM UNTIL HE BLEEDS OR SUMN WHEN WE MEET.
