Drowning ~ °•Katsuki Bakugo X Reader•°

Chapter 28

Y/n's POV

"..." He stayed quiet.

I felt him finally relax in my embrace.

"Ah..!" My eyes widened as the entire situation finally sunk in. "I'm so sorry, Bakugo." I said, letting go and wiping my eyes with my palm.

I felt my face press against something warm. I could hear a fast beating sound.

"Bakugo...?" I asked quietly. "What are you...doing?"

His arms tightened around my waist as he pulled my body closer, my face against his chest.

I heard footsteps at the end of the hall as someone walked passed us.
Once they turned the corner at the other end of the hall, Bakugo let me go.

"You were fucking crying. What else was I supposed to do?" He grumbled. "Let them stare as they walked by? Fuck no."

"You..." I whispered, "were looking out for me?"

"Don't fucking say it like that."

"You're so considerate, Bakugo." I smiled.

I felt myself get pushed against the wall, one of his palms now on the wall beside my head.

"So what if I am, damn it?!" He barked. "How the hell am I supposed to not be when I'm around you?!"

I stared at him in shock.

"Tch. Forget it." He said, turning away. "I'm going back outside."

"H-hey! Wait up!" I smiled, jogging to his side.

~~~outside~~~

Bakugo and I walked back out to the stadium seats.

"Y/nnnn~!" A familiar voice whined.

"Mina? What's wrong?" I asked, quickly running to her.
I stood behind her, leaning down and draping my arms over her shoulders.

"Nothing, I just missed you." She grinned.

"Don't scare me like that." I giggled, gently slapping her on the top of her head.

"Shoo shoo, back to your boyfriend. He looks like he's getting jealous." She said.

"Whatever," I laughed, turning away. After her words fully registered, I froze. "W-wait-! No!" I said, embarrassed. "He's not my boyfriend."

"Yet." Kirishima grinned, highfiving Mina.

I blushed, turning away.

"Idiots." I mumbled, walking back to my seat next to Bakugo.

"Took you fucking long enough." He said.

"Aww, are you jealous?" I replied, playfully rolling my eyes.

"Hah, as if!" He said, crossing his arms and turning away.

Red dusted the tips of his ears.

I felt a new blush creep onto my face as an idea popped into my head.
I hesitantly walked up behind him and leaned down, draping my arms around him as I had done to Mina.

"What the FUCK?!" Bakugo shouted.

I could hear Mina and the others laughing.

"Sorry, sorry." I said awkwardly. "I'll-" I began to slowly pull away, when I felt Bakugo grab my wrist, "-move?" I questioned.

He pulled me back to him so that my face was next to his.

"Don't you dare fucking move." He said in a low voice. 

"E-eh?!" I stuttered. "B-Bakugo, it was just a joke-!" I said, my face getting redder.

"So was that, dumbass." He said, letting me go.

"O-oh.." I said.

Wait, why am I sad?!

I took my seat next to his, cupping my face.

Sheesh, what's wrong with me?
