Stuck With You | Katsuki Bakugou x OC [Book One]

Chapter 42 - A Trip To The Store

~~~

Kira woke up chilly, her balcony door being open all night. She shivered and brought the blankets up to her chin before cursing at the flapping of the curtains. The hallway light crept under her door and so Kira peered up at the clock above her head - she was up late with her classmates last night.

Kira swung her legs around her bed, but unfortunately, her blankets tangled around her bottom half and she fell without grace to the floor, her chin smacking on the ground and her arm at an uncomfortable angle. Grumbling, she twisted her body out of her blanket and tossed it onto her bed, before grabbing her clothes for the day.

She eventually made it down to the living area, where she met Kirishima digging through the cupboards. He didn't look pleased, though she admired how he appeared in the morning: his hair down flat, a baggy red tank and black shorts.

"Looking for something?" She inquires, leaning against the door frame with her legs crossed.

"Damn Denki ate all the food last night," he grumbles, opening another cupboard hopelessly.

Kira was surprised - guess he's a grumpy kind of hungry. "I think we all took a part in that last night."

He slams the cupboard and turns to face the girl. "Maybe so, but I saw him eating more than anyone else."

Kira can't help but chuckle at his disgruntled features. "Never took you for a 'hangry' person, Kirishima."

"Yeah, well, we're all full of surprises." He jerks his head in the direction behind her, towards the lift. "It just you?"

"Appears so." She shrugs.

He sighs, as Kira takes his place in searching for any food. "I'm heading out then," he says. "Might need a hand carrying it back. You mind?"

"Not at all." Kira spins around from the cupboard as Kirishima flops down onto the sofa before standing up abruptly, groaning irritably.

Kira rushes over only to find that her classmate had sat in something that appeared to be a chewed up piece of food, but by the state of it, she has no idea what it could have been exactly. She had to stifle her laughter, but the look on Kirishima's face was particularly humourous. He grumbled something about getting changed and killing Kaminari as he waddled to the lift for a much needed shower.

As Kira waited for him, she hardly expected anybody else to wake up anytime soon. The party went on for hours after she left - she couldn't rid herself from the thunderous bass as it rattled her bedframe all through the night. She's pretty surprised that Kirishima was even up this early too. Did he decide to call it quits when she did? Nevertheless, the dorm wasn't going to clean itself.

After about half an hour, the lift dinged and Kira expected her favourite red-head Kirishima to greet her, but she was met with the last person she wanted to see.

"What are you doing?" She questions, as he ignores her and continues to search the cupboards - for what, she wasn't sure.

"Where's all the damn cups!?" Bakugou bellows.

"Look around," she says blankly.

He starts muttering obscenities before rapidly grabbing all the leftover plates, bowls, cutlery and cups and throwing them into the kitchen to be cleaned.

She didn't know whether to thank him or tell him to leave it, so she kept quiet as he furiously scrubbed the dirt from the dishes. He was still wearing the shirt he wore to the party: a black button up and jeans - weird that he just slept in those clothes, seeing as Bakugou was always so punctual and practical. That would explain why he's awake before everybody else.
