The punch came hard and quick, but Kira was used to swift blows.
She held her arms in front of her face and took the blow, before sending up her own kick to retaliate. It landed right on Shinso's side, causing him to stumble. She sent two more, shifting from foot to foot. Hitting him while he was still recovering.
"That's a low blow." Shinsou coughed.
"Wanna see an actual low blow?" Kira asked in response, aiming another kick to his scrotum. They had agreed on no mind-controlling. To better build their combat skills. It was Aizawa's idea, before he left to go take a nap of course.
"Woah!" Shinso jumped backwards, avoiding the kick but falling on his ass instead. Kira laughed at him and he kicked her leg out from under her. Causing her to fall down right next to him.
She grunted and rolled, getting on her knees. Shinso started to get up so she tackled him to the ground, sitting on his waist. "I win." She mumbled, he blinked up at her. Suddenly very uncomfortable.
For a second she felt like she could feel anger from not so far away. But there were no full thoughts.
"Right." He nodded. "Now get the fuck away from me."
Kira jumped off and brushed her training uniform off. "Pervert." She sighed, putting her hand out to help him up.
She grabbed a water bottle off of a bench nearby. They were in the UA gym, it was starting to get a little late out so there weren't many people there to bother them. They were standing on soft mats made to cushion the floor.
"Am not. It was just weird." He thought, grabbing his own and chugging it.
"You're pretty good, for someone with barely any fighting experience." Kira complimented. Trying to change the subject.
"Yeah thanks." He looked down. "But I've been trying to train my whole life. This is just the first time... I've had people to help."
"Right." Kira nodded. "You'll master it all soon. Just takes time."
"So what about you?" Shinso looked up at her.
"What about me?" Kira frowned slightly.
"You know, what made you want to be a hero. Did you train before getting in the hero course or what?" He asked. "Did your uncle train you?"
Kira looked down. "Oh." She stated. Thinking, she didn't think he'd super love the truth.
He worked so hard for the hero course. Only to be placed in general studies.
Kira came in with no desire to be a hero, and was handed a spot immediately.
"Honestly... I really didn't." Kira admitted with a sigh. "I know it'll suck to hear, knowing how hard you've been trying to get into the hero course. But up until recently I didn't really know if I wanted to be a hero or not. I had never really considered it as an option."
He raised an eyebrow. "So what happened? How'd you get into UA so late anyways?"
"The USJ attack. I predicted it would happen and went to go warn Nezu. I was forced to tell him my quirk and... He gave me an offer." She cupped her cheek and rested her elbows on her knees. "I took it out of convenience."
"Wow." Shinso mumbled, looking away. She could feel his jealousy bubbling up.
"But I don't feel like that anymore. Not after everything that's happened." Kira shook her head. "I want to save people who have been hurt. I want to be a hero like Eraserhead. I want... I want to save people like me.",
"Like you?"
"Did Aizawa ever tell you how we met?" Kira asked him.
The boy shook his head. "Just that he knew you when you were a kid."
"Well he did. But we met because he saved me. I was kidnapped when I was younger, he found me and brought me back home." Kira smiled softly. "He's the one person I can say without a doubt... Is my hero."
"Wow... I... I had no idea." Shinso said with a frown.
"Good, I don't like having a bunch of people knowing." She stood up. "I should head back now. It'll be dark in a couple hours."
"Right." Shinso nodded and followed suit. Picking up any equipment left laying around. "Well... Be careful I guess." He joked, since the dorms were literally right next door.
Kira smiled. "Right. You too."
°.•.°•.°•.°
"Are you seriously mad at me?" Kira asked, raising her eyebrows.
"I'm not fucking mad." Bakugou mumbled, crossing his arms. She had found him upstairs, in her little shed. He had been using it to study in a quieter area. He did that when the dorms got too loud. But he also seemed a little angry.
"Yes you are." Kira pointed out. "What's the matter with you?"
"Nothing. Just leave it alone okay?" He snapped, getting up. "I'm going to bed." He mumbled.
"Bakugou it's five o'clock. That's early even for you." Kira crossed her arms. "If there's something wrong just tell me."
"What's the point. You already know everything." He mumbled. "And you obviously don't care what I think."
"Bakugou you're being dumb. Shinso is just my friend. Nothing more, he's practically my adopted brother." She said with a sigh.
"People don't straddle their brothers." He mumbled.
Kira stared at him. "We're you spying on us?! Katsuki that was us fucking training. I got up after two seconds."
"Yeah. Whatever." He rolled his eyes.
"No, not whatever!" Kira stopped him from walking out. "You're being weird."
"It's not fucking weird. What's weird is you hanging out with some guy." Katsuki pointed at her. "You know it's been pissing me off and you keep doing it."
Kira scoffed. "Are you kidding me? Bakugou it's not my job to keep you happy all the fucking time." She laughed. "Come on this is dumb."
"Sorry my feelings are dumb." He said sarcastically and glared at the ground. Crossing his arms.
"Not all of them." She threw her arms open. "But this sure as hell is."
"Whatever. You don't get it." He mumbled, crossing his arms.
"You're right I don't." Kira nodded. "Every.... Every time we get close. Everytime one of us makes a move you end up regretting it." She rubbed her eyes. Suddenly feeling like crying.
"That's not true." Bakugou argued, looking up.
"Yes it is Katsuki." She shook her head. "I can feel it. You get upset. Thinking about how things are going too fast. How we're too young and how we should stay friends."
"That's not-" Katsuki ran a hand through his hair. "You can't just use my thoughts against me."
"You can't make me act like a girlfriend when you won't even be a fucking boyfriend." Kira said back, aggravated now. By all of it. "I don't want to be stuck in a limbo where I can't have you but I also can't even talk to anyone else without making you mad!"
"You're doing more than just talking, hanging out with him every night. Texting him constantly. Inviting him to sit with us." He listed it off like they were horrible crimes. To him they were.
Bakugou had extreme trust issues. Abandonment issues. It looked like the one person he needed more than anyone. The girl he liked.
Was slipping away from him.
She was showing someone else the same attention she showed him. She said at training Shinso reminded her of him. What if she started the process over again?
Befriend him like she did with Katsuki. Laugh and joke with him just like they did. What if she devoted herself to making him happy. Making him whole like she did to Bakugou. What if they ended up close in the same ways her and Bakugou are.
What if she chose Shinso over him?
He didn't want to let her go.
"So?! What I can't have friends? I can't hang out with anyone but you? You know you're starting to sound as crazy as Deku." She spat his name out like a curse.
"Take that back." Bakugou said in shock.
"No! You're not my boyfriend, you wanted to stay friends! You can't control me if you haven't even told me you loved me." She pointed at him. She seemed mad but there were tears in her eyes.
"Fine. I love you." Bakugou shrugged. As though that would fix everything.
I love you....
He said it. Kira stopped and stared at him. He had never said that to her before. She had been waiting forever to hear those words... I love you.
After every kiss, during every moment. She had wished to hear him say those three words. She wanted him to say them first, because he was the one who always hesitated. She wanted to know he was ready. She wanted to know her loved her.
I love you...
