Chapter 8
Aftermath of the USJ
Uraraka and Freya came out of the Dome Building. The others were standing around. Police was loading the villains that were left behind, except Shigaraki and Kurogiri, who got away when the Teachers arrived. The head cop, Tsukauchi was making sure the students were alright.
"I got her." Uraraka said, grabbing Freya's arm and pulling her towards the cop. The cop turned.
"There you are." Tsukachi said. Bakugo came over to Freya.
"How's my dad?" Freya asked.
"He took a terrible beating from the monster your friends described. He's at the hospital now. I can have one of the squads take you to him." Tsukachi said.
"Sir. Can I go with her?" Bakugo said.
"You don't have to." Freya said, looking at him.
"Let me make sure that's alright with your principle." Tsukachi said. He disappeared.
"I'm going with to make sure he's alright and be there as a friend. Stop complaining, Brat." Bakugo said. Freya didn't argue. She had to bite her bottom lip. Mina and Jiro came over and hugged her.
"He'll be fine. Just keep us updated." Mina said. The girls had her number. Tsukachi came back.
"Principle gave the okay for you to go, Bakugo. One of the officers will take you to the hospital." Tsukachi said. An officer led them to a patrol car. Freya got in the back with Bakugo. The cop drove off. Freya looked out the window. Bakugo saw the worry on her face. She already lost one parent at a young age.
Freya jumped when she felt her hand be grabbed. She looked at Bakugo.
"Stop fretting, Brat. He's strong. He'll pull through." Bakugo said with his signature smirk.
A few hours at the hospital. Freya sat in the hospital in the waiting room. Nurses told her and Bakugo that Aizawa was being looked over and possible surgery. Kirishima had stopped in to bring their sets of clothes and briefcases and check on his teacher. Bakugo had disappeared for a little bit after they both changed out of their hero costumes.
"Brat." Freya looked up to see Bakugo holding out a mug of coffee. She grabbed it and took a long sip. Bakugo sat down next to her. "Any news?" Freya shook her head.
"Nothing yet." Freya said. She laid her head on Bakugo's shoulder. He tensed a bit. "Thank you for being here."
"Tch." Bakugo said. She didn't mind. She felt exhausted after a long day and just wanted answers. Bakugo pulled out his phone to see a message from his mom seeing if he was alright and call when he can. Bakugo took a sip of his coffee as he let Freya lay her head on his shoulder. It seemed to calm his anger with what happened at the USJ having her next to him. He laid his head against hers. She smiled lightly.
"Miss Aizawa." A doctor said, coming up to her. Freya got up and Bakugo followed.
"How is he?" Freya asked.
"The bones in his arms are splintered and he's got facial fracturing. Fortunately, there doesn't seem to be any serious brain damage. But his orbital floor has been almost completely destroyed. We have no way of knowing if his eyesight will be impaired." The Doctor said. Bakugo and Freya's eyes widen.
'All from that Nomu? Its gonna effect his Quirk with that damage unless Recovery Girl can help him.' Freya thought. Bakugo looked shocked.
"Can.. Can I see him?" Freya asked.
"Of course. He'll be kept overnight to be monitored." The Doctor said. Freya goes to follow but stops when she sees Bakugo looking at his phone.
"You coming with?" Freya asked.
"Go ahead. I'll come find you. I have to call my mom." Bakugo said. Freya nodded and followed the doctor. Bakugo sighed and called his mom.
"About damn time you called me! Do you know how worried I have been about you and Freya! Katsuki!" Mitsuki near blew out Bakugo's ear drum when she picked up on the first ring. Mitsuki along with Izuku's mother had helped babysit Freya when Aizawa had to work after her mom died. Mitsuki considered Freya like a daughter she had never had.
"Shut up, you hag. We're fine!" Bakugo yelled into the phone. Patients and nurses looked at Bakugo. "I'm at the hospital with Freya."
"Is she hurt?" Mitsuki asked.
"No. Her father is in bad shape and has to spend the night here at the hospital. I don't want to leave Freya home alone. Can she come spend the night or at least till her dad gets out." Bakugo asked. He explained the injuries to his mom.
"Freya can stay as long as she wants." Mitsuki said without hesitation. Mitsuki had seen the three grow up together through school activities, but she saw how Freya was the only one that could calm Bakugo down when he had his anger spirts.
"I'll let you know when we are heading home." Bakugo said and hung up.
Freya stepped into the room to see her dad covered in bandages. He looked bad. Freya walked over to him.
"Dad?" Freya asked. His eyes open barely and looked towards Freya.
"Freya. You're alright." Aizawa said.
"I was warped to the collapse zone with Kirishima and Bakugo. We're all fine. Except Izuku broke his legs and Thirteen is here hurt as well." Freya said. Aizawa sighed in relief that everyone was alright. "Bakugo is here, but he needed to make a phone call."
"I'm glad your safe." Aizawa said. Footsteps came. Freya turned to see Bakugo standing in the door.
"I'm happy to see you're alright Mr. Aizawa. My parents gave the okay for Freya to spend the night till your home." Bakugo said. Aizawa was surprised of his calmness but nodded.
"It's fine." Aizawa said. He was having issues keeping his eyes open. Freya bent down and pressed a kiss to her father's forehead.
"I love you, dad." Freya said.
"I love you too, kid." Aizawa said. His eyes closed. Freya came up to Bakugo.
"You didn't have to do that." Freya said.
"The old hag is worried about us, and I don't think you should be home alone, Brat." Bakugo said as they head out of the hospital. Bakugo sent a text to his mom letting her know they were heading to the Aizawa house to get an overnight bag and be heading home.
They arrived at the Aizawa house and Freya quickly packed a bag and they head to the Bakugo mansion. It was in the richest part of the town. It was a huge house. Freya always loved coming here to visit as a kid. Mitsuki had the two pulled into a hug before they were even in the door.
"I was so worried." Mitsuki hugged the two tight. Masaru shook his head.
"Let them breathe." Masaru said.
"Let go old hag. You're crushing us. We're fine." Bakugo growled. Mitsuki looked like she was going to blow her gasket as she let him go. Freya grabbed Bakugo and pulled him into his room before him and his mom got into another fight. Both had the same tempers.
After dinner and late into the night. Bakugo laid awake in his room as Freya slept on an air mattress on the floor. She laid curled up under the blankets. Bakugo stared up at the ceiling.
'They were after All Might. It was a clear plan attack.' Bakugo thought.
"Bakugo." Freya said in a whisper. He turned his head to find her turned to face him.
"Get some sleep, Brat. It's late." Bakugo said.
"I can't. I'm worried about my dad." Freya said. Bakugo lifted the blanket.
"Come here, Brat." Bakugo said. Freya was hesitant. It had been awhile since they did this when one couldn't sleep as a kid. "Come on. I don't have all night. I'm getting tired as well." Freya got off the mattress and got in next to Bakugo. Freya and Bakugo curled up looking at each other. "He'll be fine. Your father is strong." Freya smiled.
"Thank you." Freya said as she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Bakugo pushed a hair out of her face. She looked so peaceful as she slept. Bakugo gave a small smile. He was starting to realize that he was falling for his best friend.
