CH6 Truths Be Told!

"Hmm." Bakugo wakes up and takes a big yawn. As he sits up and stretches, he notices he isn't in his room. "Where am I?" He ponders silently. He looks around groggily as something in bed shifts next to him. "What the?!" He bolts his back upright. The blankets move to reveal Yume sleeping there. Yume laid there, still asleep in her "pyjamas". Which for her, meant a tank top and her undies. Bakugo blushed as he noticed how little she wore. ''Oh my god… Yume is… '' His thoughts trailed off as Yume awoke from her slumber. "Ahhhhh!" She yawned. I blink a few times to gain focus to the bright world around me. "Oh my g-" Bakugo claps a hand to my mouth. "It's not what you think Yume!" Bakugo whispers harshly. "I must have fallen asleep while talking to you." He surmised. "But why the fuck are you half naked?!" He blushed hard as he griped. "Muh-mu-mhu…" Bakugo removes his hand. "What?" "If I get hot, I take off my clothes." I told him. "You what?" "Well obviously not all of my clothes…" "Yea…" "Excuse me?" "What? I didn't say nothing!" "Sure~" "Oh whatever!" Bakugo hops out of the bed. "I'd better get going…" Bakugo announces, grabbing his shirt off the floor. "Ok, see ya later Bakugo-san." "Call me Katsuki…" He says as he leaves. My eyes widen in confusion. ''Call him Katsuki. '' I ring in my head. ''But… Does that mean?! '' I continue to think.

Then a knock on the door jars me from my processing. "Yume!" Kendo calls from the other side. "Come in!" I reply. Kendo comes in and runs up to me. "Yume! Did I just see Bakugo-san leave your room?" She whispered to me. "Oh shit! Were you the only one out there?!" I clammer fiercely embarrassed. "Yes, thankfully! Look you gotta be careful about having boys in your dorm." Kendo warned. "I'm not a snitch, but I can't vouch for the others." "I will Kendo-san! Thank you!" I sigh in relief. "So…. What was Bakugo-san in here for?" She asks, sounding like she thinks we're dating or something. "Nothing. He just fell asleep here after helping me back to my room from last night." "Oh yeah! You said you guys were going to eat or celebrate?" Kendo said, trying to remember what I had told her about it. "It was both." "What were you celebrating?" She slily asked again. "Not that! We aren't dating!" I huff. Kendo droops her head in a depressed look. "But you two look so cute together hahaha!" "KENDO!" I blush furiously. "I'm just saying Yume!" Kendo laughs again. ''Well, I never really thought about that… '' I think to myself. We head to class and go through school like we usually do.

Mr. Kan gives us an essay to write about our favorite pro hero. From what I heard, most of the class picks a teacher, or All Might. Kendo picked Pixie Bob*. Monoma picks Hawks*. But me… I end up stuck. ''Hmm. Maybe Bakugo can help me. '' I think. So I head over to the 1-A Alliance building once again. I ask some of Bakugo's classmates which room he is in, and I head to the 4th floor. As I approach the dorm room, the door is slightly ajar. I hear the twang of a guitar string. ''Is he playing the guitar? '' I wonder. I stand next to the door, listening for more. The strums are slightly off key. "It needs tuning." We both say at the same time. He strums some more as he tightens the strings. I decide to knock. "Come in." Bakugo calls. I open the door. "Oh! Yume!" Bakugo blushes as he puts the guitar down. "Hi Bakugo-san." "What do you need Imagi-san?" He questions. "So formal now? Haha, you just called me Yume." I giggle. "You still can, I don't care." I trail off. "Sorry. I was just surprised it was you." Bakugo admitted. "Hey Bakugo-san…" I start. "I thought I said to call me Katuski? So, how about we make it even and I call you Yume, alright?" He suggests. "Uh. Oh, ok! I'll agree to that Katsuki." I smile. He blushes softly again.

"So whatcha need Yume?" He backtracks. "Oh! I'm doing an essay on my favorite pro hero and need ideas. Cause I don't really have a favorite I guess." I admit sadly. "Huh… Oh well you don't have any you like a lot?" Katsuki asks. "No, I mean… I don't know. I'm not very sure. The American pros are super flashy and stuff. But they don't feel like true heroes…" I pause. "Hey. Who's your favorite pro hero Katsuki-kun?" Katsuki turns red at hearing "-kun" added to his name. "Huh? Hello! Earth to Ka-kun!" I spurt. Katsuki's face gets even more red. "Katsuki!" I yell. "Yes!" He finally replies. "Are you ok? Your face is very red." I walk up to him and place my hand on his forehead. I then press my forehead against my hand. "Hmmm. You are kinda warm… But is that cause of your quirk?" I examine. "No!" Katsuki exclaims. "Well then what's wrong?" "Nothing!" "Just tell me!" "No!" "Katsuki!" "Nuh-uh!" "Don't make me force it outta you!" "Good luck!" Katsuki spits. "Grrr!" I grumble. I proceed to tickle him. "Gyahahahaha!" Katsuki laughs. "No! Stop!" "Not until you cough it up!" I smirk. "Noooo! Buwahahahaha!" Katsuki howls in laughter. "Confess or I keep going!" "Fine! Fine! I give!" Katsuki gasps. "Ok, so what's the deal man?" He holds his hand out, signaling he still needs to catch his breath. He steadily regains composure. "I.. I do have something to confess.." Katsuki begins.

I look at him quizzically. ''What could he need to confess? '' "I…" He starts again. "Yume, I think.. I think I.. Really… Ya know…." He stutters. "Hmm? You what Ka-kun? Spit it out already.." I huff. He glares at me for a split second. "I think.. I.. Like you…." He stumbles quietly over the last part. "You what?" I give a look of utter confusion as I hadn't heard the end of his reply. "I like you ok!?" Katsuki bursts. I blush so fiercely, I'm worried I may end up with a nose bleed. ''He… He… Ka-tsu.. He likes me?! '' "Yume.." Katsuki pulls me from my stupor. Literally. He pulls me towards him, and grabs my cheek gently. He lifts me into a kiss. I flush bright red. ''Oh. My. God! What's happening? What is happening? '' My mind races. He pulls away softly only to kiss back harder. Katsuki grips my right arm and keeps pulling me in deeper. My lips open and his tongue finds mine. They dance like they are doing a graceful tango. He palms my back, keeping me locked in his kiss. I give in finally. My hands gently caress his jaw as we make out. After what seems like hours, we stop kissing. I look Katsuki in the eyes. "Wh-why? Why do you even like me Ka-kun?" I question. "I like who I got to know over the past few months. The girl who is working to avenge her friends. The girl who is strong enough to cause me to worry. The girl that has somehow managed to steal my heart. Just there is something about you that attracts me. I don't quite know what that is yet… But I'm hoping to try and find that out with you." He blushes. My eyes widen and glisten with tears. My heart is beating so rapidly, I can't tell if I'm nervous or about to have a heart attack. "Katsuki… I…" I pause, my palms sweating and body shaking. "I…" I sway and fall back. My anxiety got the best of me and I blackout.
