Chapter Text
It was a normal day at U.A, as normal as it could be for one Class 2-A better known as the Class from hell ( it's not their fault they kept getting attacked by villains) But that's not the point. It was a Wednesday afternoon, classes had ended for the day and everyone was chilling in the common room together.
All of the students were in various states of comfort as they had shed their uniforms for more suitable clothes, some in shorts, tank tops, others dressed already in their sleepwear even though it was nowhere near time for bed. (Kaminari, Kirishima) the self proclaimed Bakusquad were stationed around the tv playing Mario kart. Kaminari was in first as his friend Sero was right behind him trying to take the electric boy out of first.
Their other best friend Mina stood on the side cheering on both boys trying not to be biased. Bakugou their groups ‘leader, scoffed with his hands in his pocket wanting to be anywhere but with them. Secretly though he was rooting for Kaminari while Kirishima was rooting for Sero. " Come on kami babe you can do it your almost there just a little more!" Mina said as Kirishima pitched in with his own support "You got this Sero remember what's at stake!! You don't want to be doing Kaminari's dirty laundry do ya? "
Before they started up the game the group made a bet the loser of the game had to do the winners laundry for two months. They didn't want to be too cruel with the punishment but they also didn't want to pussy foot. Kaminari's character suddenly was hit by a red shell by Sero making his character slow down and spin dizzly the black haired teen used that opportunity to bypass him and crossed the finish line with a cheer of victory.
Kaminari hung his head in defeat as Mina patted his shoulder in sympathy, making Bakugou ‘tch’ as the other two celebrated "no fair! Sero I want a rematch" whined the electric blonde with a pout "what no way man I won fair and square" was the response back "where did you even get that shell from?" ,"You were so zeroed in on your screen that you weren't paying attention to mine I was saving it for when I got closer to you nonetheless you did a good job"
There was sigh from Kaminari before the two shook hands as a game well played before roughhousing with one another Kirishima joining the fray as Bakugou and Mina looked on. "Idiots" the blonde said quietly but fondly before he was bumped against the shoulder by the girl. "Yeah blasty but we're your idiots' ' he made another t’ch sound but didn't respond making no move to deny the claim.
Bakugou had come a long way from his first year self. He was still prickly but he wasn't so easy to rile up anymore. Therapy and deku had softened him up a bit and made him mushy to his dismay. Nearby sat one Todoroki Shoto who watched the scene unfold while he laid on the couch with a book in his lap. His long shoulder length hair making him look soft as he was dressed in sweatpants and a cat tee and white socks.
If anyone asked what he was doing he'd say he was people watching or more so Sero watching but there's no need to admit that out loud. It wasn't like he was making it obvious but his classmates would beg to differ. It was no secret to class 2-A that their resident pretty boy had a crush on Sero everyone knew but the boy in question and vice versa the two were oblivious to the others advance's.
A Lot of people wanted to intervene, smack them over the head, point them in the right direction but they knew it wouldn't do them any good so they had settled to let the two gravitate towards one another on their own. With a sigh the bi-colored male turned his head away from the scene before making eye contact with his best friend Izuku who wiggled his eyebrows making him huff to which the other boy laughed.
Shoto confined in Izuku about his crush on Sero last year after the other male had confessed to Bakugou during the end of their first year. Shoto figured maybe izuku could help him out? get some good advice and maybe confess when the time's right. Of course in the end he did get that but he also got the unpleasant experience of having izuku tease him everytime he so looked in Sero's direction.
if Shoto didn't know any better he would have whacked Izuku upside the head or better yet used his quirk on him as pay back but knew better. No one wanted to deal with Bakugou when he was pissed off, especially when it came to one Izuku Midoriya. ('Monoma learned that hard way to the disarray of many)
Suddenly there was a dip on the dual teens right side he turned his head and came face to face with Sero. "Yo Roki I saw you sitting here by yourself and wanted to check in on you" he said with a smile as Shoto's heart began to race a mile a minute "Am fine thanks for your concern" said shoto before the other teen asked "Are we still up for reading manga later in your room unless you have other plans?", "Nope just checking" there was a hum and then silence.
An awkward pause settled over the two of them as the conversation from their friends echoed as background noise filling the space. Sero cleared his throat as he slid closer into the other boy's space. "Maybe we can head up there now? You know, get a headstart before dinner. I think Bakugou's making katsudon" he offered as Shoto stood before offering a hand to the other "I think I'd like that" a soft small smile on the black haired teens face as they made their way upstairs.
Of course some of their classmates noticed them leaving, sharing knowing looks with one another Tsyu voiced her thoughts first "kero you think it's finally going to happen?" She asked as a few people shook their heads. "Those two are blind as bats, fuckin sick of their pinning" gruffed Bakugou as Kaminari grinned hugely. "Aww kacchan I didn't know you were interested in other people's loved life's" he said with a laugh as the other blonde huffed. "Shut up sparky and am not" he crossed his arms over his chest. "Am just tired of tape face ranting about him every other day they need to figure their shit out before I lock them in a closet"
“Wait but I thought Sero only ranted to me about him, he comes to my room every Tuesday and we talk about it together ?" questioned Mina as she looked Bakugou in surprise ``No he comes to me sometimes to" after a good 5 minutes everyone decided to drop the topic at hand as the evening quickly swept through. Dinner was cooked and everyone ate different topics being tossed around. At some point the pinning idiots showed their faces again and joined everyone. Overall it was a peaceful time the kitchen was cleaned and leftovers were put away before curfew had everyone heading towards their rooms.
They had no Idea that Thursday would bring more chaos to their already chaotic lives.
