As Deku, Bakugo and Uraraka return to the dorms after a long day of training with the pro hero Mirko, all too focus on the last words they overheard Mirko saying to one of her sidekicks before they left, “ Those kids really do have chemistry.”
Deku mutters to himself about what she could have possibly meant, walking a few paces in front of Bakugo and Uraraka, both who are in their own heads about the same. Then Deku's phone goes off and he stops to check it before turning to the two behind “ So I have to. . . uh. . . go” then runs off towards the staff dorms leaving Bakugo and Uraraka standing just outside the gates in the dark. Uraraka begins to walk again when Bakugo stops her to say, “ So about today it was. . .” but then Uraraka cuts him off “ Yeah today was so fun and I just can’t get over how great she is and confident and just all around so powerful. I wish I could do half the cool and amazing things she does.” she turns away look at her hands
“You could.” he says under his breath.
“Whatcha say,” she looks up, searching his eyes.
“Nothin’ tch” he begins to walk past her towards the dorms.
“So what do you think mirko met when she said ‘we have chemistry.’” she picks up her pace to walk shoulder to shoulder with a slight nudge as she asks. He keeps walking up a little quicker avoiding her gaze. “How the hell should I know what the damn bunny thinks ?!” He turns to stop right in front of her “What does what she says matter anyway we could-,” he looks away “ nevermind, it's nothin” when he tries to leave again she stops him this time “ well I agree, I think we do have chemistry.” she says with a smirk growing across her face as she sways past him. Just before she’s just out of reach he pulls her against her body and smashes his lips into her and before she can think about kissing back he pulls back. Her eye nearly popped out of her sock, her mouth gaped, looking bewildered at the flushed boy in front of her. When she finally comes back to reality she was just about to say something when she hears “tch” and before she knows it he storms off again.
Her body moves her mind can catch up and she grabs him and before she can help it activities her quirk on him. He starts to lift from the ground and she's still holding his arm, “ WHAT HELL URARAKA, PUT ME DOWN!” she squeaks and lets go of his arm and she starts to apology “ I’m so sorry I didn’t mean to I was just to stop you from away from me again but then…” but before she can finish her sentence he shouts at her again, “DAMN IT CHEEKS JUST PUT DOWN ALREADY !” as he holds on to a tree branch for dear life. “ Oh I’m so sorry, Release.” she says touching the tips of her finger together and he lets go to the branch fall not so gracefully on to his butt. Uraraka rushes over to him on the floor. “ Bakugo I’m so sorry I never met to float I just could think of any way to stop and I just had to ask,” She stops and looks down at her hand afraid of how to ask, thinking about what this could possible she’s like him secretly for sometime now but she never thought he could ever like her back as she begins to come back. Bakugo interrupts her thoughts to “So you stop me to stop me from running away again?, when did I ever run away from you ?” He looks to her for a response.
“ Yea when we were picking partners for the mock rescue exercises and you were standing right next to me and you looked at me like you were going to ask me but then you walked past me and partnered up with Kirishima.”
“Oh. I didn’t think you would like being my partner.” he looks away and a little flush appears on his cheek.
“ why not you your strong, powerful, a really hero who would want to have you on their side, I mean I’ve always thought and I just that you started to really see me after the sport festival and you really inspired to get strong and I’ve just really like seen then and I hope you saw something in me too and I hoped. . .” before she even realize she just confessed him, She just confess the Bakugo Katsuki, the strongest, angriest boy in there class. Now he was staring at her with those dazzling eyes and she knew him heard everything she just said but wasn’t saying anything. Just as she was about to get up and say something or walk away she was sure yet. He finally said “I did-do cheeks, I do see you, I have seen you, I’ve always known that you were strong and powerful even before, I just never thought I could.” he finally looked away from her face. She grabbed his face to look at her, this time make sure to hold one finger on both hands to not float him again. When he finally looked into her eyes she asked, “ why did you kiss back there, and why didn’t you think you couldn’t. . . uh what couldn’t you?” When he open mouth she stops knowing exactly what he’s going to say and kisses him. Just as quick it happened it ended, eyes still closed she pulled back slowly finally opening her eyes when he said “ what the hell was that for cheeks ?” with a smirk. She hits his arm and finally gets up.
“Come on cheeks don’t walk away now.” he follows her back towards the dorms. Just before they reach the door of the dorm she stops and asks, “ So what now?” she looks at him from a step above and he walks up and pulls her in “Do you think I kiss just or let just anybody kiss me? Your mine” he pulls her into a close hug and kisses the top of his head. “ whether you like it or not.” he looks down into her big beautiful brown eyes and kisses like nobody’s watch cause nobody was. “So what do you say cheeks, you and me ?”She looks back into his eyes and a big happy smile spreads across her face when she says “ There isn’t anyone else,-” just as she was about to say something else her stomach interrupts with its own confession. She groans and he laughs, and she hears him laugh she thinks she never heard anything so sweet. “When was the last time you ate cheeks? It sounds like you haven’t eaten in weeks.” He laughs again and she laughs to this time “ idk, yesterday maybe” she confuses and looks away when she looks back up again his smile turns into a frown and before she can say anything he pulls her inside towards the kitchen and sits her down at the counter.
“ I can’t believe you, cheeks, you do not realize how hard we train for you not to be eating right.” he says pulling out two packs of curry and rice. “ Bakugo what are you doing? I can't ask you to cook for me.” she starts to get up to stop him
“Sit. You didn’t ask, I'm cooking and you’re going to eat it and like it.” he says in a stern but not threatening voice, a smirk returning to his face before turning around to continue to cook. When he finally finishes he fills two bowls with rice and curry and takes over to where Uraraka is sitting and takes the seat next to her placing the bowl in front of her. “Thank you for the food” she says without taking her eye off of the bowl, with the first bit of food “yummy” holding her cheeks as she finally stares at Bakugo with the biggest roundest eyes he’s ever seen. She looks back to the bowl thinking if her eyes were playing tricks on her or did she really see a slight flush on Bakugo’s cheeks. They continue to eat in silence neither choosing to break the silence, when they finish Bakugo walks Uraraka back to her room at when they reach her room she finally says “ Thank you”
“For what, I wasn’t going to just let you go to bed without dinner, that would be a shitty thing for a boyfriend to do.” he turns his face away from her to hide his flush.
“I like the sound of that, finally be able to call you my boyfriend, it's nice” touching his chin to make him look at her in her eyes. He pulls her chin to him this time and kisses her cheeks before pulling away and finally saying “Goodnight, Ochako” and walks away. “Goodnight, Katsuki” she says just before he reaches the stairs to leave the girl’s side of the dorm, with one final look he leaves with the biggest smile on his face. When Ochako enters her room she flops down onto her with the biggest smile. The next morning when she walks down to the common area with the same big smile on her face her cheeks hurt but she doesn’t care, because she is the happiest she has ever been,as she stares at the source of her happiness, yelling at Kaminari for spilling his coffee on him because he lose focus when she walked in . “Hey chako chip, you look happy.” Mina nudged her a little, pulling her out of her daze, “I am happy Mina, really happy.” She walks away towards the kitchen as she hears Mina squeak at her statement.
