One-Shot #1: The Deku Feeling

Setting: Kindergarten, Woods, Playground

Genre: Romance (though it's not all romantic...)

Pairing(s): Fem!Bakugou x Midoriya

Other Characters: The Two Unnamed Friends

Point of View: Third-Person Singular (Fem!Bakugou)

Summary: When young Katsumi gets her Quirk for the first time, she acts more confident...and more self-righteous. That self-righteousness has caused her friendship with Midoriya Izuku to sour while she discovers a new feeling she gets with him.

Author's Notes: Hey there and welcome to my Fem!Bakugou one-shot collection! Thanks for checking it out! I just thought that it would be interesting and even fun to write Bakugou as a girl, so this one-shot collection is made! Suggestions are welcome and I'll try to go through with them all. I'll credit whoever suggested the prompt when I write it out. Here's what you need to add with your suggestions:

-The summary of the prompt (i.e: Katsumi has trouble getting the Hero name she wants and becomes surprised about Deku's.)
-Whether there are pairings (i.e.: Fem!Bakugou x Midoriya or Fem!Bakugou x Kirishima or if there's another pairing not involving her like IzuOcha) or not (if there are two or more involving her, label who you want her to be with as endgame...or not)
-The setting of the prompt
-The other characters involved in the prompt (if you don't want any other characters, just say no other characters)
-The point of view (1st, 2nd, 3rd singular of a character or plural of multiple)
-The (two) genre(s) it is (i.e.: Romance/Humor or Romance)

I'll come up with the title when I'm writing the prompt (unless you specify what title it should be called) and the word count will vary. Updates will also vary, since I got other fanfics to write and also a life outside of here. You can suggest whatever you want, the only limitation is that Bakugou has to be female!

That said, I hope you like this one-shot! It always thought that IF Bakugou has feelings for Midoriya (not saying it's plausible, but I'm bringing it up for the sake of this one-shot), he would call them the "Deku Feeling" in secret because only he would make him feel that way. It'll also come up in other Fem!BakuDeku one-shots. Here's the one-shot! Enjoy!

Ever since her Quirk manifested at her young age, Bakugou Katsumi became very confident in herself. She always strived to be the best and strongest Hero that ever lived. She let nothing and no one get in the way of her dream.

When she first revealed her Quirk, there were some positive reactions, but also some mixed ones. They were different mixed reactions, but they all fall under the damn "But she's a GIRL" category. Yeah, she was a girl. So what? Girls couldn't have such a destructive Quirk? Well, she did and she was damn proud of it. If anyone was going to give her shit for it, she knew exactly what to give them: an exploding punch to the face! That always showed them who was boss...despite what that hag of a mother and doormat of a dad took it as.

But she has proven herself to others and she'll prove herself to more when she finally gets into U.A. High, the #1 high school for heroic training! The entrance exam was said to be difficult, but she was adamant that it wasn't anything she couldn't handle. She was that confident in her Quirk.

That step towards her long-term goal was solidified since she first got her Quirk. However, she felt like waiting for that opportunity to come was taking FOREVER. She just wanted to go there NOW so that she could be the BEST Hero! But she was still a four-year-old...a four-year-old with an awesome explosive Quirk! But then she still has to deal with those lesser than her until then...

That included her friend-no, her "friend", Midoriya Izuku.

Before her Quirk developed, they lived in the neighborhood and became friends. He was nice, she guessed, and admired the #1 Hero himself, All Might, as much as she did. That was why they were friends in the first place, because of their admiration for All Might. Deku was more vocal about it though.

Oh right..."Deku".

After she and everyone else has gotten their Quirks, Deku still didn't get his...making him Quirkless! To her, that was so LAME! He told her that he strived to be like All Might and he got NO Quirk! He was defenseless and useless; therefore, she called him "Deku". She couldn't tell if he minded that or not and she didn't care. He was "Deku", her ultimate lesser.

Not only was he Quirkless, but he also...did something...to her.

Okay, so it was sometime after she's gotten her Quirk. She, him, and a couple of other friends they used to hand out with were going through the forest one time. She was the leader because of course she was and she had the best Quirk, so she was at the front. She walked and led the boys like she was their Queen or something. She liked that.

However, when they reached to the log that worked as a bridge to the other side, she lost her footing and fell straight into the stream. The boys had gasped and called her name. A Hero would never let anything overpower her, so she just popped out of the water, wiped her face, looked up at two of her friends with a big confident grin, and shouted, "I'm alright, you guys! Nothing can stop me!"

She felt so stupid for then realizing that two of her friends were up on the log at the time. She wondered where the hell Deku was before she heard his voice ask, "Are you alright?" Looking dumbfounded, she looked to see him offering her a hand and looking very worried about her. She was stiff for a moment because...well, she was feeling something when she saw him like this.

There wasn't any other time when her heart thumped so hard and her face began to heat up.

Why was she doing that shit? Why was she feeling so...so...damn it, she couldn't think of the word! This wasn't the first time Deku's been nice to her...but it was the first time he tried to help her. It was...she didn't know...sweet(?) of him?

But then...there was the implication that came with him helping her.

He probably thought she couldn't help herself, so he went down to help her himself...it was like he saw her as a goddamn damsel-in-distress. A damsel-in-distress was the LAST thing she wanted to be!

She huffed and stood up, walking and bumping shoulders with him as she announced, "Let's just go already!" From the corner of her eye, she could see that Deku looked hurt by what she did. She did feel a little bad, but she buried it under her pride quick.

That was the beginning of their friendship slowly becoming nonexistent. It was also the beginning of her experiencing that feeling she had when she first saw him try to help her. Later, she would call it the Deku Feeling.

The thing was, she didn't feel it again after that. It remained that way for a while, the girl disregarding that feeling she had before like it was nothing. She liked it that way since that was weird and continued to focus on getting to her goal.

Then another thing happened.

One time, in the park's playground, she and the two other friends were picking on a kid because it was so obvious to her that she was the best and others were inferior. Then Deku, Quirkless DEKU, comes in and stands in front of the bullied kid, his eyes filling up with tears. "Y-you're so mean, Kacchan..." he said in a hurt voice. "Don't you see that he's crying?" Again, she felt stiff by how he looked right now, especially when he started to shift into a fighting position. "I-if you continue, I'll..." He then yelled out, "I'LLNEVERFORGIVEYOU!"

This made her heart feel heavy and her body even more stiff. Her heart thumped like it did before and her face slowly began to heat up. But now...that's all accompanied by this sudden pang of guilt. Why the hell was she like this?! Was this because...she was feeling bad for what she was doing and making him do this?

No...NO, that COULDN'T be it! She was superior to the both of them, she knew it!

"Katsumi-chan?" asked one of her friends. Oh God, now she probably looks awkward in front of them...and it was all because of DEKU!

She instantly thought of what she should do and placed her fist onto her palm, creating a small explosion with that action. "Stop pretending to be a hero..." she said, looking up at him with her sharp, red eyes. "DEKU!" He looked aghast and was frozen in place, the two other friends getting their own Quirks ready before the three charged to Deku to beat him up instead.

Though beating him that day felt very satisfying for her at the time...she couldn't help but feel more guilty about doing it afterwards. She thought beating him up would remove the feeling...instead, it let it stay and torment her every time she saw him.

Done! What do you guys think of this one-shot?
