Bsf!Denki doesn't know how to go about his crush on you
It's been around a year since it all started. The first day of class was about to start and someone in particular caught Denki Kaminaris eye despite doing nothing out the ordinary.
You'd just been speaking to the girls when he came up to you, introducing himself and asking what your quirk was, (since that was the only interesting thing he could think of to ask) and soon blending into the conversation you were already having with the others.
He watched you during that conversation, you were cute. Really cute.
The way you were shy but also has this natural outgoing flair when you were around the right people, the way you became so comfortable around him after mere hours, the way you smiled and laughed at the dumbest things had him adoring you before he knew it.
That day after school he went straight home and scrolled though Mina's hundreds of Insta followers till he found you.
You didn't have many posts, but the ones you did have were cute, not performative looking but just so very you.
Your profile was a cute photo of you and a simple bio, not many followers but just enough that you had everyone you were close with.
He followed you and probably never liked a insta story faster than he did once he clicked on yours.
A couple weeks went by, and you two were pretty close. He was funny as hell and you two found yourselves in random side quests.
The second it was announced you'd be moving into dorms, you couldn't be happier.
You were quick friends due to how much time you spent together and dorms meant that time would triple and god did you love that.
He was the only person allowed near you when you felt like being alone, staying quietly in your dorm hanging out till late night.
Touch wasn't something you did often despite quite liking it when it came to friends. It just felt awkward with others so you avoided it but, when it came to Denki? You could be so close to the point you could basically crawl into his skin and he wouldn't care.
You'd rant on and on about things going on in your life and he didn't mind listening, he liked it and it was the same for you when he started going on one of his dumb rants.
At this point you bascially lived in his dorm and vice versa, you both had a drawer for each other at the others dorm.
You got used to sleeping on his bean bag he kept and he got used to you both making a surprisingly comfortable bed fort at your dorm for him.
After the training camp, everyone wasn't in a good mood. How could they be?
So many were injured and Bakugou was gone.
You couldn't sleep. It was too quiet and the summer air made it too hot in your dorm to sleep comfortably.
You got up, walking with your blanket wrapped around your shoulders and headed over to Denki's dorm.
it was 1:30am and you felt bad since you knew everyone was exhausted and he was probably asleep.
You tried as hard as you could to knock quietly enough to not wake anyone else up but also enough to get Denki to open the door.
You didnt know exactly what you were aiming for with your knocking goals but somehow it worked.
Out appeared the human version of pikachu himself
He looked surprised to see you in your state, You had an oversized tee and some shorts, hair a mess, blanket almost swallowing you and looking half asleep.
"Sorry, uhm, can I spend the night here? Can't sleep"
You cringed, clearly not realizing you had to talk and couldn't just waltz in and fall asleep.
Denki kinda just.. blinked at you. Was he asleep? He didn't know.
You looked a mess. It was quite interesting in his sleepy state. Even at night or when you had a bad day, you tried to keep yourself neat or collected in a way.
It felt like looking at a vulnerable part of you and with your eyes looking at him and basically pleading, he realized that 1. this ain't a dream and 2. how the hell could he say no?
"Yeah, uh-, you can come in bed if you want"
He moved out the way so you could come in, his mind was everywhere but in the present and he didn't realize what he told you to do until you were in bed next to him.
Now it was his turn to not be able to sleep. Sure you two were friends and have bascially cuddled but you've never slept in the same bed together and he was panicking.
You were a little too tired to care but it did feel awkward with you both facing the other way of each other.
Suddenly overthinking his next actions, Denki hesitantly tugged you towards him, trying not to freak out and make it weird between you two.
"Hey, c'mere"
He didn't finish whatever sentence he was thinking of saying once he felt you snug against him.
You didn't even protest, gladly just snuggled against him and taking the opportunity to throw your arms around him and rest your head against him.
That night gave you probably the best sleep you had in years.
With summer came free time, free time meant hangouts, or at least your idea of hangouts.
You were sleeping at Denki's place every day at this point. Late nights spent watching some dumb show and talking brought you two closer than ever.
Denki looked at you like no other. He thought his crush on you had faded but it only came back 100x stronger.
He was also an utter freak which you figured out a little too late.
You'd catch him staring when you'd be walking around in your shorts you only wore in your dorm because they were too short to wear out.
Any insta story you had of yourself was met with the most filthiest reply you couldn't imagined but nahhh it was just Denki being Denki, after all, he was a close second to Mineta.
He couldn't be the only one being put to shame though. You had your moments as well.
Training had you basically giving him bedroom eyes. To be fair, he does have a good build and don't get started on his hero suit.
Okay so what? Lines were being blurred and you had to convince Mina you two weren't fucking (she still doesn't believe you), it's not like it was bad. You were just admiring.
Then the next semester came and were there a LOT of battles to be fought. There wasn't weeks where you could just relax, it felt like everyday that there was something different.
Due to it all, you and Denki were drifting, not intentionally but there was definitely a difference.
No more late nights spent in Denki's dorm and more nights spent with injured classmates.
It was getting so tiring and you missed Denki, how couldn't you? You spent the last months basically glued to him and with you two drifting, he was starting to act distant as well. No more flashing his silly grin at you every time he caught your eye or asking you to come over and watch some stupid show.
It wasn't like he was completely avoiding you.. because well he did stare, never looked away when you'd catch him though.
Soon you just learned to ignore it, people drift apart all the time right?
It was completely different however. Denki was being petty, jealous even.
He was asking for some adjustments on his suit when he overheard some support course guy talking about you, saying you were hella cute and he was going to try and get with you or sum shit like that.
Sure you and Denki hadn't been talking, he was busy with other stuff and so were you but he wanted needed to figure out a way to be let back into your life.
Seeing that basic ass loser picking you up from class one day made him snap.
Later that night, your phone lit up with a message from someone you didn't expect, like at all.
Ki: can u help me w a question on the hw i feel stupid ash
It didn't take you long to respond, sending a quick yes and making your way over.
You didn't bother to change or anything, it wasn't like Denki hadn't seen you in silk pajamas and you had a little suspicion he liked them too much at times.
You knocked a few times on the door before he opened it and let you in.
He started complaining about whatever it was on the homework he didn't understand and acted completely normal, acting as if he hadn't gone months with staring at you in class and not talking to each other.
Sitting next to him at his desk felt like old times, randomly cracking up at his stupid remarks but there was this carefulness to it, not wanting to overstep the boundaries that had been put up over time.
You'd been there for around a hour now and Denki finished with the assignment he SWORE was the equivalent to purgatory so you decided to get up and head on out.
Denki panicked when he saw you getting up to leave. He got up and held you from behind and softly rested his head on your shoulder before speaking
"stay the night?.. please?"
He sounded soft and even a bit scared, months of no contact made it hard for him to want to let you go again. He wouldn't. Not when he knew that there was someone else also waiting to have you, someone who was much closer to the goal than he was.
"are you sure-"
"yes. God yes, y/n, you know I wouldn't have asked if not"
He responded before you could even finish your last word.
"Ki.. what's gotten into you? You asked quietly, something felt wrong.
His grip just tightened on you without a response for a moment.
"...y/n, I can't stand it anymore, I can't stand seeing you being with some random guy while knowing i've loved you since the day I laid eyes on you"
His voice was soft, vulnerable, almost scared as to what you'd say.
He let you go and waited for you to turn around and face him.
"I'll give you everything I can, just please not him."
Denki looked wrecked. Desperation in his eyes and he was slightly shaking as he awaited your response.
Never in a million years had you ever expected this. Sure, you two were touchy and have kissed once or twice.. Okay you probably should've expected this yet you were stuck on what to say despite knowing your answer, that you too had thought he was cute from the first day.
The guy you couldn't even bother to save his number was barely a thought in your mind.
You didn't know what to say. Opting to move closer and lean in to softly kiss him.
The second you did, Denki's hands were on you. Holding you in your spot as he kissed back in a manner that felt desperate.
You threw your arms his neck to keep him close, giggling between kisses.
When he pulled away, he rested his forehead against yours and whispered out something
"I love you so much, please don't try and get with another pompous jackass again.. looking at his face really pissed me off" he sulked
"I won't unless that jackass is you" You responded through quiet giggles
Soon you pulled away and figured since he did ask to spend the night and it was like three am that you probably better get to sleep, you two did have class in the morning.
Once you two were in bed, Denki almost refused to let you go and because of the lack of movement you had, you forgot to set your alarm.
So walking into class the next morning, both looking tired and disheveled had the girls flocking to you after class and asking what the hell happened since they knew your frustration over Denki just staring and not talking to you before
But that'd have to be a story for another day. You just wanted to be back sleeping in Denki's arms.
