I-Island: Pillow Talk.
Ever since the Exam, Momo's been orbiting me. Even if Katsu and I made up… she still had to cling on me. Momo and I had to get supplies for the upcoming Training Camp, and I wasn't too excited like Katsuki was. He was more of an outdoors type than I was…
I'd rather stay at home where it's nice and cool, controlled. Plus I'd get too hot and tired. If I got too hot… well, I'd start to strip. I am well aware that I have a rather toned physique for my age. Yet, I still felt like I could've done more for my brother.
The number of times I had to suck it all up, to not cry, to not break down for his sake? It all ended when he made my nose bleed. It all came crashing in for him. All those times he smiled, said that he was okay, that he could take the pain… He couldn't. Stain broke him. Stain forced him to break. It was never my fault. Yet it felt like it was. Momo held my hand, my grip on her hand was tight. She was getting more outdoorsy stuff for both of us.
"Do you think we need a couple of water bottles?" she asked.
"Mm…" I grunted.
"Ren? What's the matter?" she asked.
I didn't answer, I didn't want to. She looked at me, "Is… is everything okay?" she wondered.
No answer.
"Renaru, please, talk to me. If it's something I did, I apologize," she sighed, and I let go of her hand, that word made me snap. That… damn… word… 'Sorry' 'Forgive me' 'I apologize'. All three of those words alongside those others made my heart burn. I started to spark, and I tried to stop the hail of words that started to pelt her.
"RRGH! STOP TREATING ME LIKE I'M FRAGILE DAMMIT! ALL MY LIFE I'VE HEARD THAT! From my mom, from my brother… from so many doctors and other people… the last person I thought I'd ever hear that from was you! I hate them! I hate those words!" I snarled.
"Then what am I supposed to say?!" Momo shot back.
"Maybe nothing at all! Maybe just… just shut up! Let me breathe!" I roared.
"Let you breathe?! Let you BREATHE?! Renaru! Listen to yourself! I thought… I thought…" she faltered off.
"What?! That I was Mr. Invincible?! Mr. I-can-take-it?! No! I'm not! I'm… I'm just paraded around because of my condition! I'm shuttled around because I'm the cripple who made it! HUZZZZZZAHHH! No one EVER saw me as a human aside from the guys, you, my brother, and my mom…" I sighed, I had to let it out.
"I just… need time, Momo… I still love you, very much… but… ahh… I can't stay mad at you," I sighed, pulling her into a long hug, she hugged me back, it wasn't much of an argument.
Momo still held my hand, a little looser, but… God, now I feel terrible… I didn't mean to yell at her. I didn't mean to hurt her. She did look a little hurt by what I said. Scratch that. I lost her back towards the bathrooms.
Was she crying? Was she ranting about how I was inconsiderate and a fool? Was she… gonna leave me? I didn't want her to leave… especially since she was the first girl to treat me like an actual human rather than a thing to be paraded around… an object.
I felt something slip into my chest, an odd feeling of dread… my dread turned to panic as I raged towards the bathrooms, my eyes darting. Something was off. Why was she not back yet? I mean, yeah, I did yell at her, but…
I saw her come out, her eyes red and puffy, her hair a little disheveled, but she looked like she needed a good cry. She took one look at me and ran up to me, hugging me.
"I'm so- I apolo-" she stammered, "J-just hold me, dammit!" she snapped. I hugged her tightly, soothing her, she was riled up, now I pulled away and wrapped an arm around her. She was still a little tense, but I kept on being by her side.
This little spat was going to fade away, it's just… I was stressed out, all this shit about the exam and Katsuki, and me just blaming myself for hurting Katsuki's chances at winning the exam… I blamed myself for a lot of things… little did I know…
That the worst was yet to come.
Everyone was at the mall, getting supplies for the UA Training Camp, yet another person was watching the others, watching one or two in particular. One was Izuku Midoriya, and the other was Renaru Bakugou, the heir to some power Sensei was worried about and the winner of the UA Sports Festival.
Both interesting players in this game of heroes and villains. Shigaraki smiled, seeing them both get closer, the pair's girlfriends going off together somewhere. Or one of them, Momo Yaoyorozu, was with Renaru. The girl with Izuku, Ochaco Uraraka, was just a friend.
He leaned forwards, getting a better look at the pair as they seemed to be horsing around a bit.
"Dude, didja get Ochaco's number?" Renaru asked.
"What?! N-no…" Izuku mumbled.
"Icchan, I got Momo's number no-sweat!" Renaru bragged, grinning.
"That's because you had trouble in English…" Izuku sighed.
"Yeah, 'cause Mr. Mic wouldn't stop with the goddamn ear rape!" he snarled. Shigaraki wasn't too far from them at all…
Just a few more… steps.
"Icchan, that was a low blow, man," Renaru sighed.
"Well… I'm not wrong," Izuku said, shrugging. Shigaraki whisked up behind the pair, his hands on both their necks, one finger poised upward on each hand.
Renaru's hands sparked, and Shigaraki knew he had to make this quick. If Renaru let loose, Shigaraki would be a goner.
"Let's not… blow this out of proportion. I still have your other friend in my grasp. You try pulling something and this green-haired brat will go bye-bye," he snarled.
Renaru stood with his arms crossed, "In a busy shopping mall? Seriously? Look at all the witnesses, I mean, come on, at least Stain had some semblance of being cov-" he was cut off by Shigaraki.
"I just only came here to have a little chat. Is that too much to ask? You heroes have it easy, walking around and people don't panic or call the cops. Me on the other hand, people scream, call the cops, and when the police and heroes arrive, I get taken down. This is why I fucking hate this society, but nothing rages me more than that Hero Killer. What's so fucking special about him? Sure he killed some heroes, but he also leaves them alive as they suffer losing their dream career forever. So why is he more popular than me and the entire league?"
Renaru cleared his throat, "For one, maybe work on not being such a child about it, for two, I think that many people can get behind what he believes, just… work on finding out what you want, you already know I'll turn you into fucking roadkill anyway…" he growled, truly not fearing the man of decay.
"Right… and all I want is… to kill the Symbol of Peace. His stupid smile just infuriates me, and people cheer like he's some lord and savior to this world," Shigaraki rasped.
Renaru stiffened as Shigaraki loomed over him. His breath rank with some sort of rot. Renaru started to shudder and Izuku stayed somewhat calm.
"Without him, people would be going nuts. We can cause mayhem, and the whole world will be afraid of me. Look at these people just walking around, minding their own fucking business like everything is alright in this world. Maybe I could… kill a few brats, how soon will the heroes arrive before I kill some innocent victims and make my escape? Now it all adds up," he spoke.
*Popopopopopo…* Renaru's sparks started to sputter in his hands.
"W-what's gonna happen after you win? Anything about that in your perfect s-society?" Renaru gulped, Shigaraki smiled.
"I dunno, kill some heroes, maybe some people, and tear down this city that All Might has protected and served for years. Who knows,"
"It… wasn't just All Might… you can't just kill people… you can't just force people to fall in line!" Renaru forced out, Shigaraki teasing the pair of them with his single finger lowering just slightly.
"I can't? That's silly. I'll MAKE them fall in line… just like how I'm keeping you, two heroes, in check,"
He leaned over, staring at the two of them, "Listen… you, Renaru, pillar of hope for those with Quirk Palsy, you know how this society beat you both down… what if I told you, in my perfect society… there would be no prejudice? You could be whatever you wanted and no one would put you on a pedestal? I know you don't like the spotlight, Renaru, and I like your style and way of thinking… but, who appreciates it?" he asked.
They heard footsteps behind them.
"Izuku?"
"Renaru?"
Fuck me. Not only did Handman show up, but now he's manhandling me and Izuku?! Then there's Ochaco and Momo coming to see what's up and I'm stuck trying not to die! This is amazing…
"Who's that?" Ochaco asked while Momo tensed.
Handman leaned back in with us, "Play it off or you're dead…" he muttered.
"This is just… just a…" Izuku mumbled.
'C'mon Izuku, you know we're both terrible liars!' I thought.
"We're just hanging out-"
"Sightseeing! Have you seen this fountain? Wow! What a nice fountain, right Izuku?" We both spat out different answers.
"Indubitably!" Izuku mumbled.
'Okay, Handman… back off before I make you.' I thought, looking at him. Handman smiled, seeming to go along with it.
"Oop! Well, look at the time, gotta go eat, we'll see each other around, alright?" he said, getting up and walking away. I let out a huge sigh of relief, but something about that last line bothered me a ton. Something told me that he meant it.
Izuku and I looked at each other. I was happy that we survived. Momo saw me shudder and she grabbed my hand.
"Are you okay, sweetie?" she asked.
"No, I'm not… that guy… I've never felt so much… killing intent, even Stain wasn't that bad…" I stuttered, shivering. Momo hugged me.
"It's over now, baby…" she sighed, petting my hair and I just seethed a little. I wish I could've blasted that fucker to kingdom come… Ochaco went to call the cops and Momo stayed by my side. We were holding hands and I didn't want to ever see that fucker near her. If he decided to come after her, he'd have hell to pay.
Yet, his vision of a perfect society sounded so… right. No heroes, no villains, no pedestals, just normal people doing what they need to do. That was the society I wanted to create as a hero. Guiding people on the right path. Yet the Nomu… it almost killed me and Aizawa…
I shuddered, I still had nightmares about that thing… what it'd do to everyone else if All Might was just a little later. How child-like it seemed. How I barely was able to fight back. A man in a police uniform came up to us and took off his hat. He had black hair and black eyes, he smiled.
"Good afternoon, gentlemen, I'm Detective Tsukauchi, do you mind if I ask you both some questions?" he asked.
"Not at all, sir," I said, Izuku nodded. We both were a little rattled.
"Can you describe how the person looked? Any idea what his quirk is? What was he wearing?" he asked.
"Dude had to lean down a bit… so… I'd say he was tall-ish…? Had azure hair, looked like he needed lotion, BADLY… He… he scared me," I admitted.
"Oh wow, big bad Mr. Renegade scared? Man, I feel ya," Tsukauchi sighed, "The amount of crap all you kids went through… the world is changing, and with it, everything else…"
Izuku and I nodded.
"So… about his quirk…" he segued.
"Something to do with all five fingers," Izuku answered.
I still felt shivery, I wanted to go home… The door slammed in, with Auntie Inko barrelling in and borderline tackling Izuku. Mom came in and I ran into her arms, crying. Because I needed her.
"Sweetie… shh… it's alright… be happy that Momo and that round-faced girl was there when they were, who knows what that creep would do to you two?"
"Ehh! I don't wanna think about it, Mitsuki!" Auntie Inko yelled.
"Geez, I'm sorry, Inko… let's just get home, okay?" Mom sighed, squeezing me a little. We got home to find Katsuki in a video call with someone.
"Listen, Lissa, my bro's doing okay," he said, not noticing us until the door shut.
"Gah! Guys, what the hell?!" he yelled, I ran up to the screen, seeing my big sister Melissa on the other end, remembering Katsuki's huge crush on her. Even more than the one he had on Ochaco.
"Hey, sis!" I greeted her. Don't get me wrong, Big Sis was pretty, Katsuki knew how to pick them. Yet the only problem was that he could never get around to telling her.
"Hey! So… how are things?" she asked.
"Everything's alright, been flirtin' with death for a while, lovely lady, decided to exchange numbers…" I huffed, kicking my feet up.
'If you tell her, you're fuckin' DEAD' Katsuki mouthed.
'I won't, but why not?' I mouthed back.
'I'll tell her you and Momo banged, she'd start to cry. Her lil' innocent bro… taken by a woman,'
'You vicious son of a bitch…'
I was blushing redder than Kirishima's hair, trying to calm down.
"Hey, Katsuki? What's wrong with Renaru?" she asked.
"Oh, nothin' ba- I mean, Lissa! He's just embarrassed," he tried to misdirect, only to fail.
"Renaru? Can you tell me?" she asked, her blue eyes settling on me.
"Uh… well… I kinda… sorta… been datin' a nice girl…" I mumbled.
"Aww… that's cute! I'm sure she's really happy with you…" Melissa teased a little at the end, with Katsuki turning to me and doing the 'I know what you did' stare.
"So, what's her name?" Melissa asked.
"Uhm… Momo… she's really pretty… got nice eyes… nice hair… she's beautiful and I don't deserve her at all…" I admitted, at this point, smoke was billowing out of my mouth.
"Renaru, you're a sweet guy, I'm sure she's loving every moment she spends with you!" Melissa said and I almost when I practically glowed.
"And loving every moment he's inside her…" Katsuki quietly blurted out. Melissa cocked her head to the side.
"Is that true, Ren-chan?" she asked, I nodded.
"I didn't… I wasn't… too good at it…" I mumbled.
"We all start somewhere, sweetie!" Mom supplied.
"Mom! Not helping!" I hissed. Even worse was when my phone buzzed with Momo's ringtone.
I'm still in a dream, Snake Eater!
I got up and hustled out, going to my room and answering, "Babe, not right n-" I was cut off.
"Oh my god, are you okay? Did they arrest you?! Oh my goodness it's all over the news and everything and I'm scared and I wanna come over and all that!" Momo spat.
"Momo, now's not a good time, baby…" I sighed.
"I'm coming over, and you better BELIEVE we're cuddling!"
"BA- and she hung up, shit!" I snarled. Not only did Melissa know that Momo and I did the horizontal tango, but now she's coming over to cuddle because of MOTHER FUCKING HANDMAN! I came back out.
"Momo's coming over…" I sighed.
"Oho! She so wants that Dynamite D of yours 'BAKUOOOM! BAKUOOOM!' Haha!" Katsuki laughed.
"Katsuki, please! Stop messing with him…" Melissa sighed. Katsuki immediately stopped. I leaned close to the mic.
"Katsuki loves you," I said.
"FUCK YOU!" he snapped, his cheeks flaring.
"REVENGE!" I yelled. I sighed and waited, hearing Katsuki trying to cover his ass. Melissa was a smart girl, and she took it rather well.
"Katsuki, I'm a little disappointed though, Renaru had to tell me that, but why did you take so long?" she asked.
"I just… argh! I wish he would butt out!" he snarled.
"Well, you didn't when I was gettin' Momo! That whole 'Bless the Tiddies' thing…" I sighed.
"We don't condone Mineta…" he huffed.
*KnockKnockKnock* A rapid series of knocks sounded out and I froze.
"Katsuki lemme just say, whatever you hear in my room tonight, don't you fuckin' record it," I went to go answer it and Momo was standing there, nervously shuffling, when she saw me, she hugged me tightly.
"Mm…" she cooed, laying her chin on my head while I was against her soft pillows.
"It's okay… it's alright, are you still scared? Should I spend the night?" she asked. I was grinning. I was happy.
"M-maybe…" I mumbled.
"Perfect!" she nearly sang, surging inside. Katsuki was gone and Mom made herself scarce. I heard laughing coming from Katsuki's room, while Mom was in her room watching a show. She settled in on the couch and I sat down next to her. She laid my head down on her lap.
"It's all gonna be okay, we're gonna have a lot of fun, I decided that you and I need a break from being heroes, so… I'm bringing you to I-Island with me!" she announced.
"Oh yeah? That's cool!" I chirped.
"I figured since we've worked so hard… we deserve it!" she reasoned, "So~ Do you want to do anything else?" she asked. I leaned up and kissed her.
"I can do that…" she whispered. We continued to kiss and she had her hair down.
I fucking hate planes. Stupid fucking heathen tubes, we had to get up early and I was sleepy. I leaned against Momo. I tried to fall asleep, but Katsuki kept on kicking my seat, so I was fucking pissed on top of hating Satan's pocket rocket.
Once we landed, we found someone waiting, it was Melissa, but I was grumpy, "Katsuki! Renaru! Hi!" she called, running towards us. She immediately did something that she used to do when we were little. She glomped me, and my face was between her breasts.
"I'm so happy to see you, Ren…" she sighed. I tried so hard not to nosebleed, and I felt Momo yank me away and be glomped by her own.
"Oh! I'm sorry, you must be…"
"Momo Yaoyorozu, Renaru's girlfriend," she said, feigning a good mood. I looked at Katsuki, who looked like he wanted to be hugged too. Melissa hugged Katsuki and he accepted begrudgingly. He took up his suit and Momo grabbed my hand.
"So~ Here's the inevitable question, what did you guys do?" Katsuki asked.
"We just kissed and held each other…" I mumbled.
"Then why is Momo covering her neck?" he wondered.
"AHHHHHH?! N-nothing!" I gasped.
Momo smiled widely, "He… he marked me…" she admitted.
"Ah! Babe! S-stop…" I gasped. Melissa giggled.
"Aw, you're still the same flustered lil' guy I knew all those years ago…" she teased.
"Go kiss my brother already…" I sighed. I held Momo's luggage and we all went to get settled, with Katsuki and Melissa talking up a storm about what had happened towards the start of the year. Our room had a double bed and a super fancy bathroom. Momo yawned a little bit, stretching a little and showing off the purple bruise.
"Does it still hurt, Momo?" I asked.
"A little, Renaru…" she sighed, it would fade, I knew that there would be a party later on in the expo, so Momo and Mom teamed up to get me a tailored suit, Katsuki just didn't care, so he didn't get one. My suit was black, with silver cufflinks. I hung it up and felt Momo's arms around me.
"Mm…" she groaned a little, pulling me towards the bed.
"Momo… hey… easy… it's been twenty-four hours since the last time we… did anything remotely intimate," I mumbled.
"Shh… we're in a different time zone…" she reasoned. I just resisted. There would be time for that preferably in September. She rubbed herself against me.
"Please? Please please please?" she asked, her hair was down, and her… assets were jiggling.
"LOOK! I wanna save it for your birthday! So I can make it a special thing!" I yelled.
"Awww… but I don't wanna wait… Live a little!" she chided.
"L-Live a little?! I've lived a little for long enough! Hell, I've almost died more times than your average teenager! Please, let me just take it easy!" I begged.
Momo considered it, "Come on, you're so cute when you're flustered…" she teased. She undid her bra, unleashing her breasts.
"Momo, you know I don't get the hype around breasts…" I sighed, she chopped me on the back of my neck and I fell against her soft mounds. Still, I tried to get away, but she was so comfy… so warm… my mouth absentmindedly sucked on something.
"Ehhh… Renaru, do you get it now?" she asked.
'Huh? What is she talkin' about…?' I thought.
"I wanna make you feel good, too!" she stated.
"Hh..really? No thanks! I just indul-" I was cut off by her shoving my face into her cleavage. She created something soft and wrapped it around me. It was a soft blanket and she wrapped it around us.
"I wanna be your pillow… so sleep off the jet-lag, sweetie…" she sighed.
I shifted and teased her breasts with my teeth, her frustrations getting to me. I hated it when she'd whine or be pouty. So if this shuts her up, then it's fine. She cooed and giggled. I was tired and grumpy. I wanted to just sleep against her without her whining.
"Ren… ah! What're you…" she moaned.
"Shut up…" I sighed, rubbing her shoulders and she wrapped herself around me, her breath panting. I raked my teeth across the bruise. Making her hiss and moan.
"Nnnh…" she grunted.
"Shh…" I whispered, kissing her warm body all over, "Don't make a sound… otherwise, the others will find us…" I warned.
I huddled against her body, closing my eyes and biting and kissing her. She loved it but tried her damnedest to be quiet. She wiggled and squirmed.
"Ee… Mm… Renaru… I… I love you…" she whispered.
"Yeah… I love you too…" I sighed, still thinking of the Nomu, of Handman and Stain. How many more people will line up to hurt those I care about? How much more blame will I have to take? Then…
*Ka-chunk!*
"Hey, loser! We're gonna… holy hell…" Katsuki gasped.
"KYAAAHHHHHHH! KATSUKI GET OUT!" Momo screamed.
"Katsuki! What the fuck!" I snarled.
Katsuki backed up, his hands held high, "I'm… just gonna go bleach my eyes…" he mumbled, turning tail and sprinting. What a mood-killer...
