- everyone on the island hates him omf
- i mean, who wouldn't when he's leeching off all your expenses?
- the fact that he'll personally come and ask for your debt EACH DAY doesn't help as well
- you had to b e g for him to give you another day cause!!! 1 million dollars!! what the fuck!!! who has that shit!!
- he'll give you this nasty scowl before clicking his tongue rudely
- "you better have the money by tomorrow"
- and he just leaves you there, rethinking all your life choices cause damn ma, you're just tryna live life here peacefully, not be in debt smh
- the cycle just repeats by the day tomorrow comes and you still haven't paid a single cent oops
- one day, you had forgotten a really important payment that was due right this moment
- and you're just panicking cause it's really that important?????
- so it's 3am and you're rushing out of the house to get to the atm at the resident services
- which is probably closed by now but you just had to try y'know
- you were shocked yet thankful when you could still see light spilling out from the window
- but then you see a glimpse of bakugou,, , working his ass off and stressing his mind out of a pile of paperworks???
- and it finally dawns on you that he's working a 24 hour job, trying his best to fulfill the citizen's needs and just making the island a nicer place in general
- ever since that day you've been paying more attention to bakugou and trying to get closer to him
- which led to you realizing that he 's really not that bad, after all
- i mean, yeah, he could be a tad rude and explodes at the tiniest thing but
- you found out that he's also someone who gives street cats food and wandering birds little treats
- your heart may or may not busted a nut at that
- he tries to act all tough and shit, saying that "they're noisy as fuck if i don't give them something to eat"
- but you know better than to believe his words
- rumors spread as you get closer to bakugou
- and they were not,,, , pretty,,,
- "they're probably sleeping with him for rent!1!11!"
- "eEewWw hOw desperAte can thEy gEt"
- jokes on them cause you'd sleep with him for free hah
- hehehe jk back to the story <3
- honestly, bakugou kinda thought the same as well
- like he was just waiting for you to rob him or something
- that is until you paid off all your debts,, ,
- and you're still here, as present as ever, trying to push his walls down yet again
- that's when his suspicions REALLY flew up the roof
- cause who's really out here tryna be his friend???? no one but you bitch!
- so bakugou's still as closed off as ever while you're here chasing him like a school girl in love
- he thrives from the attention tho
- weeks passed by per normal
- the sun is shining, birds are chirping, bees are buzzing andー
- is that a wholeass protest you see over there???? ??? ????? ?
- you walk closer to the large group of people gathered in front of plaza, signs and banners everywhere
- and you see bakugou and todoroki in front of the chaos, trying their best to get everyone to calm down
- "LOWER THE GODDAMN PRICE"
- "WE'RE NOT MADE OF MONEY"
- "STOP BEING SO SELFISH, YOU'RE ALREADY WEALTHY ENOUGH AS IS"
- you've never seen bakugo so small before
- and the sight of his distraught face just breaks your heart
- not to mention the fury you feel when you hear all these baseless accusations when they don't even know what goes on behind the scene
- and start yelling how bakugo is NOT just some greedy businessman who exploits people
- like how he never forces people to actually pay their debts immediately despite approaching them everyday, giving them all the time they want
- or how he could've added interest into everyone's loan, profiting even more but he chooses not to
- or how this boy literally works 24/7 tirelessly, making his services available anytime so giving him a good pay is the least y'all could do
- the plaza was dead quiet once you've finished your talk
- you even thought you made the situation worse until one villager rises up and goes
- "yo,,, they kinda made a point there,,, ,,"
- and suddenly all the mf villagers begin apologizing and packing their things up, acting like they never started a riot in the first place
- bakugo's just watching everything like???? ? ???? staring at villagers speechlessly until todoroki says something along the lines of you being so brave and thoughtful
- that's when he realized that shit,, , you the real og,,,
- you made your way towards the two tall males once everything dissipated, checking up to see if they're all right
- reaching for the blonde's arm, you scanned for any scratches or cuts, him pulling away immediately
- "no one asked for your shitty help, loser"
- you frowned and snapped your head towards him, ready to refute his rude statement when... is that a blush you see?
- before you could even say anything, bakugou was long gone, leaving you and todoroki alone as he head into the safe building
- you shared eye contact with the duo-haired boy for awhile, wondering what the hell was up with the foul mouthed gremlin before he gave you a teasing look
- "i think he likes you, y/n."
