was this rushed? sorta. does it matter anymore? a bit.
you turn over from your position on the bed and pick up your phone. 'who in the hell is texting me in the middle of the night?' you squint your eyes as you adjust to the bright light emitting from your phone.
"who is this..?" you mumble seeing a random contact text you.
you gasp sitting up and widening your eyes. you read the message and quickly save the contact under one name- bakugou.
"im bored and ur the only one up."
"sure but what"
"fuck that. u wanna ft?"
you let out a muffled squeal kicking your legs giddily. 'yo no way chat- is this w rizz??' you quickly turn on your side lamp and sit against your head board.
"yea sure. js call whenever"
you answer looking at bakugou through the screen and feel your mind blank at the sight.
arms folded under his chin.
muscles showing in all their glory.
"sup' genso" he grins slightly, "put a damn shirt on- your ruining my perfect vision" u groan playfully covering your eyes. he rolls his eyes adjusting so that he was propped up on his forearms now, "that better?" he smirks.
"ugh- your so annoying..!" you chuckle causing him to join in lightly as well. "but genuine question.. dont you usually sleep early? why are you up so late?" you ask curiously.
"i was jus' thinkin'... " he mumbles looking down, picking at his pillow slightly.
"bout' what?" you question, sensing a change in his tone.
"how do you know if you like someone..?" he asks quickly- almost too quick.
"woahhhh.." you tease, "does kacchan have a crushhhhh?" you say sarcastically.
"shut up genso! just answer the damn question!" he yells making you put down the volume quickly.
"okokok!" you chuckle, "i mean- if you like a person you should feel this like- jittery feeling in you stomach- but not in the 'im-scared-to-present-in-front-of-the-class-way.' its like a warm feeling yk?" you say as you look down, eyes softening slightly.
"anytime that person is mentioned you immediately listen in, and every time you see them its like everything around you just..." you trail off.
"stops." he finishes softly, glancing at you through his phone. he took notes of the way your hair slightly fell over the side of your eyes and the old acne scars littered across a tiny spot on your cheek that he suddenly found endearing.
"yea.. you should feel as if every time your with them the world just goes quiet.." you mutter looking up at him through your phone. memorizing every inch of his face, like how one strand of his hair fell instead of spiking up and how his lips seem to pucker slightly when he isnt scowling.
you shuffle quietly and place your phone on your night stand before laying down to face it. "soooo..." you start awkwardly as you yawn.
"so..?" he replies mirroring your position. "you tired genso?" he asks, noticing your yawn.
you nod slightly, "a bit yeah.. we need to wake up early tomorrow no?" you mumble glancing up at him through droopy eyes.
he nods, holding back a small smile. "yeah- yeah we do genso..." he says slightly softer than usual as he watches your eyes droop.
"you wanna stay on call..?" you suggest tiredly as you close your eyes.
"oh..uh- sure.." he says feeling his cheeks heating up. "night genso.." he says softly.
"night baku.." you mumble, trailing off slightly as you feel yourself fall asleep.
bakugou lays down and sets his phone next to him. he glances at your peacefully sleeping face and lets out a low curse as he props himself up on his elbow and takes a quick screenshot.
he quickly lays back down as a wave of embarrassment and realization hits him. 'Whyd i do that?? god bakugou pull yourself together..!'
he groans softly feeling frustrated that he didnt know what to do. "i cant like her.. theres no time for that now..! i have to train-" he mutters.
he glances at you on his phone again. his eyes soften slightly before he tears his gaze away "no. i cant- i would just end up hurting her." he sighs.
you walk to school with music blaring in your ears.
you had so many questions.
whyd he call you instead of everyone else?
how come the call ended after just an hour?
you sit in your seat before quickly stealing a glance at bakugous seat only to find him not there. 'weird.. bakugous usually always early..' you take out your phone to send him a text.
you wait as you see him read your message.
"yk i can see that u read it right?"
"i dont feel good is all.""woke up and felt like shit"
"are u coming down with smth?'
"i can take notes for u if u want"
"no its fine.""i dont need ur pity."
you purse your lips as you read his messages. there was obviously something more to it, but you didnt pry.
"okay well feel better then.."
he reacts to the message with a thumbs up. you roll your eyes'bros tryna be nonchalant but it isnt working out..' you cant help but chuckle at your own thoughts, 'man no one makes me laugh the way i do..'
once class started you pulled out an extra sheet and started writing notes for bakugou just in case he may want them even though he said he didnt.
finally, the bell rang signaling the end of the day. you pack your stuff and walk over to bakugous house for the first time since elementary.
you knock the door softly before adjusting your hair. as the door opens you smile to see mistuki at the door.
"y/n!!" she exclaims hugging you tightly.
you smile hugging back, "hi mrs. bakugouuuuu..!"
you grin up at her, "ive just brought some notes for katsu- sorry- bakugou. is he feeling any better..?" you ask, turning slightly worried.
"oh hun, i dont even know.. hes locked himself up there all day. he hasnt ate or anything.." she says sighing and rubbing her temples. "can you please do me a favor and go up there with some food and see if he'll listen to you?"
you widen your eyes "i dont know about tha-..!" you yelp as she pulls you in and hands you a plate to take upstairs.
"thanks hun! your the best!" she laughs, pushing you up.
you walk up quietly and knock on his door, "bakugou...?" you call out, "its ..y/n i brought you the notes and some food... open the door- please..?" you ask nervously.
you hear some shuffling before the door opens slightly revealing a tired looking katsuki with a shirt pulled halfway down.
"can i come in..?" you ask with a small awkward smile.
he nods and opens the door for you to walk in. "thought i said i didnt need the notes genso..." he mutters gravely.
"yeah well.. i figured you wouldnt wanna stress about doing it so.." you trail off placing the notes down and looking around his room. "it hasnt changed much huh..?" you say with a soft smile. noticing a photo that looked much to familiar you walk up to his bedstand, "is that..?"
he nods, "yea.." he croaks out as he sits down on his bed.
you pull out your phone showing the same photo in your phone case with a smile. "its one of my favorites.." you admit, sitting next to him and handing him the food. "here- you should eat if you wanna get better.."
he nods and grabs the bowl from you as he starts to eat. you glance back to the photo on his bedstand.
it was you and bakugou when you were younger.
you two were tangled together sleeping side by side with only one thing in common,
the all might themed friendship bracelets katsuki has made.
the heart between the two initials representing something more deeper than y/n knew at that time...
