• Kirishima POV •



                          
A warning. 
                          
That's all it was. 
                          
Those few words that put me in my place. 
                          
"Eijiro! Get the fuck down here!"
                          
I was sent to my father's house for a weekend while my mom was out of town. She didn't trust me to be home alone as I was only in middle school at the time. 
                          
My dad apparently was messaged by a friends dad, saying we had a play date. Well more like a hang out, where we would play video games and go to play sports or something. 
                          
My mom let us play all the time but this was the first time my dad was informed that we hung out. 
                          
He had his suspicions about my sexuality, but at the time I wasn't fully aware. 
                          
"What the fuck is this?" He asks me. I tremble slightly at his tone, knowing I'm in trouble again. 
                          
"Me and Theo s-sometimes hang out, it's an in-invitation" I get out, stuttering here and there. 
                          
"What, you and your gay friends hang out?" He yells as I shake. 
                          
My lip quivers knowing that I'm in for it now. 
                          
I begin to reply when he hits me. I fall to the ground and look up at my dad, now towering over me. 
                          
"I swear to god, if I find out my son is a fag you're in for it." He warns. 
                          
He walks away, throwing away the invite in the process. 
                          
I chose not to hang out with Theo anymore as I was afraid of the outcome. My father was a scary man after all. 
                          
As I was an unpopular kid, Theo was one of my only friends. I sat alone most times and felt out of place at school without him. 
                          
I believe that's when the anxiety and depression got worse. 
                          
"Hey, what's the matter?" Katsuki asks as I'm brought back to reality. 
                          
We're currently sitting in the classroom finishing up our work. I had bakugou help me out so I finished quite fast. I simply shook my head, not wanting to get into what just happened. 
                          
He looks at me for a second more before sighing and looking down at his phone. 
                          
Just then I'm called down to the office. 
                          
"Kirishima eijirou, please meet nezu sensei in the front"
                          
I begin my shuffle down the hall, slightly anxious for why they would call me down. 
                          
I hope for the best as I open the door and am greeted by my principal sitting at his desk with papers in front of him. 
                          
He looks up and smiles at me then points at the seat in front of him. 
                          
My mind goes to the last time I sat in front of someone like this. Back when I was told my mother was killed by my horrible father. The one whom I hold all my hatred for. 
                          
"Kirishima, I hope you're well" he greets. 
                          
I nod and ask him why I'm here. 
                          
"You see, for you to get custody of someone other than your father, you would usually have to go to court to testify. As you know, your father will be going to prison for many years, without doubt. You just need to be there as a witness. If you do not wish to do so you can sign these papers here and get custody as you don't necessarily need to testify because there are already many witnesses to your fathers activity. Unless you have anything else you would like to bring up in court." He finishes. I'm left there thinking, my dad put me through hell but he's already going to be there for a long time. 
                          
As much as I would like to put him in hell, I would rather not talk about the abuse in front of many people. 
                          
"Bakugou mitsuki has already signed for consent of your presence, all you need to do is sign a couple of documents stating you would like to live there with their family. At least until you're of legal age to live by yourself" he states. 
                          
I ask where to sign, when he shows me the papers. Without a doubt I would like to live with them. 
                          
Once I'm done signing he sighs and I go to get up when he stops me. 
                          
"Wait, Kirishima." He says. I sit back down and he keeps talking. 
                          
"You have the right to visit your father if you please. I was notified that I'm obligated to tell you that, but it's completely up to you. All you have to do to see him is-" I cut him off. 
                          
"I don't want to see him. Not ever again. With all do respect sir I hope the worst for him." I say. 
                          
He looks up and hesitates before nodding his head. I leave his office when the bell rings, signifying the end of the day. 
                          
I smile to myself knowing I can go home and be with Bakugou. 
                          
He waits at my desk as I gather my things. 
                          
"You ready to go? We can watch movies or something when we get home" he says. 
                          
I smile and nod, grabbing his hand. We then exit the school and walk home. 

                          
Yikes this is bad. I'm super sorry this isn't the best chapter and there are probably many spelling mistakes because my hands are currently frozen because my room is freezing cold lmao. 
Also Im sorry the whole court thing sounded mean, I've only been to court twice and I really don't like thinking about it so I don't wanna write about it in this book. I know for a fact that Kirishima would have to go because of everything but I do not want to write about it so I just made it so he can sign papers. Sorry if it sounds funny
