why is it so hard to write a book lmfao 

it probably takes bakugou so much to fall in love 

it wont be that stupid love at first sight shit, it’ll be that stupid best friend trope where he doesnt even know he’s in love until you start talking about some other boy.

he’s probably so angry and so confused why you would need someone else besides him. who could cook better than him? who could protect you better than him? and who could fill the gaps in your hand better than him? definitely not some random guy. did he know your favorite color? your fears? your favorite 3 am snack when you’re sad? fuck stupid boys that dont know your skin care routine, you deserved better. 

but bakugou doesn’t even know he’s in love until the jealousy sets in and rattles each bone in his body when he sees you smiling at someone else. his eyebrows furrow, his hands curl up into fists, and he finds himself gritting his teeth. then he realizes he wants you. 

he wants you to look up at him with those warm eyes. he wants you to flash that smile in his direction- the one that makes his stomach flutter and the color pink flush on his cheeks. and he even wants to feel your lips against his for once. how would your first kiss with him be? soft? your lips sure looked like it. fuck, they would probably make his knees weak and his brain turn to goo. 

bakugou would probably try to keep his distance from you. the concept of love is something so strange- so foreign to him and honestly, it scares him. 

so he ignores you for a week. 

maybe two. 

and you get fed up. where the fuck is your best friend? he wasn’t the type to avoid you when something went wrong. so you search high and low for him. he runs away when you corner him in the kitchen. when you catch him in his room, he’s busy studying. and when you attempt to talk to him during lunch, he walks off. 

so you do what any sane person would do. 

you pop up in the bathroom when he’s taking a shit. 

at first he’s yelling at you to fuck off but you stand outside his stall arms crossed against your chest, he wasn’t getting away from you this time. and you go off on him. you’re firing off questions one right after another. 

why was he ignoring you? why didn’t he reply to your texts? your calls? did you do something wrong?

but instead of a response, he flushes the toilet and goes to wash his hands. 

you’re thinking he’ll probably run away again, maybe ignore you for another week. but the next words that come out of his mouth has you flustered. 

“you..like me?” you repeat. 

and he’ll look at you with those crimson eyes and that same scowl that never left his face. 

“so what?” he barks. 

you be standing there, a little smile crawling on your face while he grows flustered by the moment. mineta walks into the bathroom. there’s a stupid ass grin on his face but before you could even open your mouth to say something- he’s thrown halfway across the hall and bakugou’s running off again. 

hes not really good at emotions but when you run after him he’s pleasantly surprised. he can hear the pitter patter of your footsteps behind and it’s matching his heartbeat. 

“bakugou.” you say. the way you say his name so effortlessly it makes his heart crawl up to his throat and the butterflies in his stomach swarm. 

but it gets even worse when you tell him you like him too. 

those butterflies won’t go away for a solid week. actually, he’s not sure if they ever go away. because even on your wedding day they make an appearance.
