(Flashback to the previous evening)
"Oi, Midoriya! Wait up!" Kirishima yelled at Izuku who just ran away from them.
"Did we do something wrong?"
"Whoa, what's his problem? I just wanted to help. He's so ungrateful." Kaminari pouted and looked at his friend waiting for a response.
"No, I think something was wrong. He looked worried. Gave off this weird vibe."
"Still, he could have just told us. We are friends, aren't we?"
"Maybe it was something we wouldn't understand. I didn't want to trouble him needlessly."
"Yeah. Look, he even left behind his stuff. He usually is very protective of it. Hey, how about we take a peek inside, see what's so important about his supplies!"
"Dude, aren't you aware of what's going on around you? Midoriya obviously has something happening in his life, we should respect it."
"Ughhh, you're no fun!"
"I'll just take his stuff home and give it back tomorrow at school. Hopefully he shows up."
"Fine. See you tomorrow, Eijirou!"
"See ya, Denki!"
The two students parted ways.
Kirishima went straight to his home and started doing his homework which Mr. Aizawa had assigned earlier that day.
He looked at his phone.
20:47
"I hope Midoriya is ok. He looked so worried."
As he said these words, he was disturbed by a sound coming from the other side of his room.
It was Izuku's phone. Someone was trying to call him.
Kirishima looked at the screen. It was his mother.
"Poor woman. She must be worried sick." Kirishima thought to himself.
"Hello? This is Kirishima, Midoriya's classmate. He left his school supplies and his phone at school so I took them home."
"What? Where is my son? Do you know where he is?"
"N-no I don't. Last time I saw him he ran off out of the school teritory, leaving his stuff behind."
"I'm just very worried. He's usually home by this time and he never leaves without giving me a warning."
"Wait! I thought that Midoriya went home!"
"Well, he didn't. Do you know anyone he would have gone to? My mind is completely blank. I don't know much about his school life."
"No, I'm very sorry. I'll give you a call if I will find something out though!"
"Alright. If you have any idea of where he might be... anything at all! I just want my son to be safe!"
"Of course!"
Kirishima and Inko Midoriya exchanged numbers.
The boy went back to his homework assignment, but wasn't able to work on it anymore.
"Midoriya, what happened to you?"
Concerned, the red haired boy went to sleep without finishing his assignment. He was too worried to do anything that evening.
But sleeping didn't help. It probably would if he could fall asleep, but he couldn't shake the worry about something bad happening to his friend out of his head.
All the sleep deprivation and worry made controlling his quirk harder. His hands, face and stomach would harden randomly and caused even more stress to Kirishima.
He finally got up from his bed and punched the wall, leaving a giant crack in the middle of it as all his strength was concentrated to his arm.
Kiri knew he had to do something. He took his phone and looked at the time.
22.38
It was pretty late already but he didn't have much actions to choose from. So he decided to text a friend who he thought would help him.
Bakugo.
"Hey! Do you by any chance know where Midoriya is? He left his stuff in school and his mom called. She sounded worried."
"Why the fuck are you writing this late? I'm trying to sleep you moron."
"We both know you don't go to sleep this early. So, do you know anything about him or no?"
"I don't have any business with that shitty Deku. Why would you even ask me?"
"Idk, maybe because you were childhood friends?"
"Pssh, like I'd care about him."
"Look man, I can't sleep. I'm kinda worried about Midoriya."
"Why should I care? That's your problem."
"I was about to go look for him near the school. I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come with."
"Did you really think I'd want to leave my house this late to look for some scum like Deku? Newsflash Hair-for-brains! I don't."
"Don't call him that. Who knows what happened to him. Aren't you worried at least a little bit? You've got to have a heart, man."
"Ugh, why must you be so awkward all the time! Will you shut up if I go looking for that asshole?"
"I guess. Ok, let's meet up at the U.A. asap."
"Whatever."
~Timeskip~
Bakugo and Kiri met up at the school entrance. Kirishima was there a little bit earlier than his friend and impatiently waited for about five minutes for him to arrive.
Bakugo finally arrived: "Seriously, did you have to drag me out this late?"
"Bakugo, our friend is in trouble. I knew Denki would be hanging out with Kyoka this evening and I didn't want to disturb them. You were the first person who came to mind."
"Whatever, let's just get this over with."
The two students left the front of the school and started walking towards the city.
Everything was very dark yet bright at the same time. How could he get lost?
Kirishima was very anxious and worried. His quirk wouldn't leave him alone.
Bakugo on the other hand couldn't care less. He was completely unaware of Kirishima's quirk going nuts and didn't care about his feelings.
"Where could he have wondered off to?" Kirishima sighed. It had gotten so cold you could see your breath in the air.
"Beats me. But if it turns out that he has been fine this whole time, I'm going to teach him a lesson for making me go outside this late at night."
"Don't you think he has had enough of you? You aren't nice to the kid at all! He isn't quite the same as he always was, you know."
"And do you think I give a shit about what he's feeling like?"
"I'm just saying that it has been hard for everyone lately and you aren't making it any easier for him."
"You shouldn't look into shit where you don't belong, red head."
"Bakugo! Are you even listening to me? Can't you just go easy on him for once? Everyone has noticed how you treat Midoriya. He's a human too you know! A hero wouldn't do such a-"
"A hero? Do you even know what is a hero you shithead? He's disrespecting me, I have to get that through his thick skull somehow, don't I?"
Kirishima's quirk was going out of control at this point. Their conversation was causing him to stress out even more.
"Bakugo! Can't you hear yourself? You sound completely ins-"
Kirishima collapsed. His quirk was activating and deactivating on it's own and the boy couldn't breathe. He stared at his friend with absolute terror in his eyes as he heard Bakugo: "Hey! Hair-for-brains! Are you ok!?"
With his last strength Kiri whispered to his friend: "Just find Izuku!"
"No way! I'm calling the ambulance! Hang in there!"
Kirishima passed out in the middle of the street. Bakugo sat him up against a wall and waited for the ambulance to arrive.
They took in Kirishima and offered Bakugo a drive home but he refused.
Bakugo made his way home and went to sleep like nothing had happened.

Second part done!
Sorry for the angst.
I tried very hard to prove that m'boi Kiri is best boy and a really good friend though the rest of the world already knows it anyway.😙
Bakugo and Kirishima are just friends! Ship them here but ONLY AS FRIENDS!
Same with Kaminari and Kirishima.
But Kaminari and Kyoka are definately bf and gf so go ahead.
Though it's not really inportant to the plot. At least now.
I said that it won't be all happy and light. Didn't take the warning? That's ur fault m8.
Maybe while I'm not procrastinating and my writers block is gone I'll post a little more often but I'm not sure what will happen in summer.
