And trying not to kill him. (Part 2)

Start from the beginning
                                        

"You better take that back you black-eyed freak!" We stopped yelling at each other once we heard something move behind him. My eyes widen once I see another pair of turrets aiming at his back. Before he could react I use my free arm to yank him into the space between me and my acid shield, while that was going on I used the back of my arms to make another shield.

Feeling a bit cocky I let out a chuckle.

"Well look at that, this black eyed freak just saved your life."

"Tch! Whatever! Let's just go!"

"Wait a minute! Before we move I need you to do something for me. Each floor but the first has a lever in one of the roo-"

"Just get to the point raccoon!"

"I would if you'd let me finish! Anyways, I need you to look for it."

"Why can't you do it?"

"Well Bakugo, if it wasn't obvious already there's a you standing in front of me and because of you I can't see. Now, can you just do what I ask?"

"Just get ready to move." Kinda satisfied with his answer I smile a little, it's a good thing he's in front of me so he can't see it.

"We're gonna have to walk in sync with each other, otherwise you might get burnt. So get ready to move your right foot in 3...2...1"

"What are you doing!? That's your left foot dumbass!"

"Haha... oops I somehow forgot which foot was my right... haha... let's try that again."

"Idiot."

I count again and on one we both take a steady step forward. Since we were moving slow we got the hang of it pretty fast but since I'm a klutz I still kept my eyes on his feet so I don't miss step.

"I found the lever, it's on our left, cover me so I can get to it."

"Good work Sparky! Now, get ready to move to the left." A low grunt was what I got for a response.

I expand the acid shields a little more so we could have more room to step out. Once I was done I counted down again and like the time before we both stepped out at the same time.

When we made it to the front of the room he ducked under my arm and quickly went straight for the lever that was at the back of the room and pulled it. Not even a second later all of the turrets turned off in unison and went back into the walls. I lower my shields and smile at him,

"Awesome work dude! Couldn't have done that better myself! Well actually I would've made it look a lot cooler, you looked so stiff and uncomfortable."

"Shut up! It's because of these annoying fucking handcuffs! They keep getting in my way!"

"*giggles* Yeah I can tell. Now let's get back to talking about how great I'm doing!"

"We weren't even talking about that you idiot!"

"Which is exactly why I'm trynna get that ball rolling, so how I'm doing? Good right?"

"Tch! Barely! You haven't done anything that impressive."

"Your alive aren't you!? I'm doing a good job making sure your not filled with holes or squished in between walls!"

"Don't throw a fucking fit, you asked for my opinion so I told you. If you can't take it then don't ask stupid questions."

"Oh yeah, I forgot you're more of a combat person. You don't care about rescuing people, just about hurting them, which isn't really heroic but hey, what can I do?" He growled at me for ignoring him but I don't really care cause I know he thinks I'm doing ok he just doesn't wanna say it.
