Too Close

Summary:

Bakugou is in first place, as expected, but what isn't expected was how close it was! How dare this Kirishima guy come in second place? That's bullshit, and he didn't like it! So what does he do? Go to threaten the guy and tell him to knock it off. He was so much better, and this Kirishima guy was trash and was only second best!
Yet, after a while, they become a lot closer... which was strange for him.

Work Text:

When Bakugou saw the results of the entrance exam; he wasn't shocked that he won or at least got first place, since he wins with a whole lot of things. He was almost always the best at things that he wanted to do, ever since he was a child. He was the best at things he did, and if he wasn't, he wouldn't stop unless he was the best or at least better than everyone else which meant the best.

He used to get told that his quirk was the strongest a lot of people had seen, and he was looked up to by a lot of people, mostly other students in his classroom. Over the years he got a lot of praise and a lot of his friends thought he was just the coolest so, of course, he thinks he's the best too and this time it just proved that point! He had the most points like sure, he didn't have any rescue points but so? Who cares about god damn rescue points!? Those extras should rescue them damn selves.

What he was shocked about was how close it was! That guy in second place got 75, while he got 77 points, so if that random extra got only a few more points he would have been in the first place, and Bakugou would have gotten second! That just won't do.

As expected when Bakugou saw that; he was annoyed. How dare some random guy get nearly as close as him? He, without a doubt, burned the paper that the results were on then went on with his day, planning stuff in his head. He'll find where that Kirishima guy was and he'll give him a piece of his mind; and maybe blow something up since that's what he did a lot, to be honest.

Truthfully he doesn't like it when people are nearly as good as him, this fucker most likely just got lucky! He had 39 villain points and 35 in rescue then there was round face, with 28 villain points and 45 rescue points. Ugh how could he have even gotten a bit close to them? He knew that he needed to get better now.

When school started, he was walking down the hallway, his hands in his pockets grumbling to himself, his eyes narrowed. People were getting out of the way of him walking, which was good for him; he didn't want to shout at anyone right now, considering he wanted to save his throat so he could shout at the extra later on... that Kirishima guy. He knew that rumors were already going around because of how he acted, shouting and everything, he had even heard a few girls mumbling and asking if he would become a villain, which annoyed him a lot! He wasn't going to be a fucking villain! He wanted to be the number 1 hero after all.

He sighs, shutting his eyes as he reaches up brushing his hair back, feeling some sweat on his hands from keeping them in his pockets so he wipes them off on his pants, grumbling to himself still. Not exactly words, just noises. People don't seem to want to use their minds sometimes honestly, why would he be here; if he was going to be a villain? He would have blown shit up already if he wanted to be one of those.

Because of him not paying much attention to where he was walking, he bumps into the back of someone, causing him to take a step backwards and he growls as he says to them, "Watch where you're fucking going" he didn't care that it was sort of his fault, the person should have gotten out of his way.

The guy he bumped into blinks and turns around when he was bumped into, frowning, as he says, "Wait what? Man, you bumped into me" The guy's voice was rough but it wasn't harsh, sounding more confused than anything.

Bakugou blinks at the response pausing. Well that's new, normally whenever he snapped at somebody like that, they would get out of his way with saying they're sorry for getting in the way yet this guy didn't? The guy was shorter than himself, if only a tiny bit, and his hair was a bright red color. It was styled to be pointy and his eyes were a bright piercing red, just like Bakugou's, but his seemed to be brighter. He had a tiny scar above one of his eyes and when he spoke Bakugou saw that he had sharp teeth like very sharp, sorta like a shark. He was, of course, wearing the school uniform.

After a bit of silence between them, both of them just staring at each other, slight sparks form in Bakugou's hands as he snaps, "So? You should have moved out of the damn way you fucking extra. I don't move around anyone! Do you want to get blown up or something?" he knew that some people were watching but he didn't care much, he liked it when people looked.

The guy laughs and turns to face him, grinning as he says, "My name is Kirishima, not extra just so you know. I know it's our first day so you most likely didn't know. I don't move for people that much, even more, if I'm in the middle of talking... it's pretty rude to bump into someone and expect that person to tell you that they're sorry" he went to go back to talking to the others he was speaking to but they left, most likely not wanting to be part of this.

He growled as he listened and narrowed his eyes so this was that Kirishima guy? He doesn't look that special or even all that strong, how the hell was he in second place? He reaches up grabbing the front of the redheads shirt pulling him closer, his eyes narrowed in a sharp burning glare. "So you're that second-place guy, huh? You think you're so special, don't you? Well guess what? You're just second best to me"

Kirishima blinks when he was pulled closer, his eyes shooting down then looks over at Bakugou looking confused before he smiles, brightly, saying, "Yeah I know I came in second place but I'm gonna get better, and who knows, I might just beat you one day, blasty boy. That's why we're here, to get better. Your entrance exam was great I just think you should work on saving people too; you wanna be a hero so that's part of the job" he reaches up pushing Bakugou's hands away from his shirt and takes steps backward, "I'm going to class" he turns starting to walk away stretching his arms above his head, yawning most likely tired it was pretty early in the morning.

Bakugou stares after his lips parted slightly, wait... what? No fighting back? Telling him that he could be beaten later? He grinds his teeth watching the redhead retreat. What the fuck was that? He was expecting the guy to get mad, or scared, not look amused like that! He started to walk to his classroom stomping his feet on the ground, his eyes narrowed, he had a few plans and they were going to be put into action soon. He was going to get this guy to fear him even if it killed him!

It had been a few months since Bakugou met Kirishima and they have gotten closer. Whenever Bakugou went a bit out of line Kirishima would drag him back over the line and try to calm him down, or tell him that he was getting out of hand and that he needed to chill. Sometimes he would lose control of his anger, and he would say stuff to the redhead but Kirishima luckily never took it to heart and he would try to continue to keep Bakugou calm and collected, even if just for a little while and Bakugou would help Kirishima whenever he started to think that he wasn't good enough.

Well… sometimes Bakugou hoped he didn’t take it to heart.

They were close, but Bakugou still wanted Kirishima to fear him or... maybe not? It was weird for the blonde nowadays. He's been doing a lot of things to get that. Like one time he ran into Kirishima's room and dragged him out to go and train due to the fact that he wanted to beat his rock ass and it worked well! They trained doing a little fight but afterward, Kirishima just asked him if he wanted to go and get something to eat. No matter what Bakugou did or said, Kirishima kept coming back to him! He was... confused, to say the least. Then other things started to happen and he slowly stopped really wanting Kirishima to fear him. Sure, sometimes he would drag him out to train but for now, it was honestly all just for fun without any other reason.

Right now they were sitting in the common room, and Bakugou was helping Kirishima with his hair brushing it, just because he hadn't brushed it in a while and Bakugou had nothing else to do plus, it was kinda calming since Kirishima's hair was kinda long and oddly soft.

He was sitting on the couch with Kirishima sitting on the ground in front of him, between his legs and the redhead had his head leaning against Bakugou's knee, humming happily. Whenever his hair was down, he loved it when people messed with it, like pulling your fingers through it, or twirling the bright red strands in your fingers. Whatever you do, he'd most likely like it but when it was up and styled, he told everyone not to mess with it only because it takes him a long time to style it. Five minutes to be exact.

The room was silent other than the soft humming of Kirishima and the slight sounds of their breathing which was very very quiet. That was rare for them because of how many people were normally in the common room then Bakugou breaks the silence. "I could break your neck right now, you know" yep, best thing to say to break the silence.

Kirishima just hums in response nodding his head, with a small relaxed smile, "Yeah, you sure could Bakugou... could we put my hair in that little ponytail again like before?"

"Oh yeah, sure, I guess" he pulls out a hair tie from his pocket that he started to carry around with him because of Kirishima. He gives them to people who need them too, sometimes without even thinking about it most of the time. He got a new packet a few days ago, these were bright red and sparkly. He starts to gather the red hair in his hands so he could put the hair up mumbling, "But for real, it would be easy then I wouldn't have to deal with you anymore, too much trouble sometimes I hope you know that"

The other male laughs, nodding his head very slightly. Bakugou puts his hand on top of his head so he'd stop and Kirishima says, "Yeah I know it would be dude, I'm at your full mercy" he knew that Bakugou was saying that because this was a pretty soft moment. It was pretty adorable most of the time, and he didn't mind having to be threatene, he knows that Bakugou never meant it. Once the hair was put up he tilted his head back to rest on the other male's lap looking up at him, smiling widely showing off his teeth and he said. "Thanks, bro"

Bakugou looks down at him then rolls his eyes and turns his head away, sighing as he grumbles "no problem, but stop looking at me like that"

Kirishima rolls his eyes as well, looking amused and climbs up onto the couch beside him and he leans over, kissing the other males cheek, "I swear sometimes you're the weirdest boyfriend in the world, I hope you know that Katsuki" he just said it in a joking tone Bakugou could easily tell that at least.

The blonde tenses up as he heard that and he huffs, narrowing his eyes at Kirishima pushing him back so he'd fall back onto the couch and he snaps, his voice not as harsh as it normally was "I'm the best fucking boyfriend, you asshole! Do I need to show you that I am?" Getting a happy nod from the redhead who was now just laying on the couch where he was pushed, like a big dog wanting belly pets now. Bakugou narrows his eyes, flicking his tongue in fake annoyance. He knew that this was just a way to get a kiss from him, but he didn't want to back down now he knew that if he did, he'd get teased ugh, why did he have to get the cute boyfriend? This bullshit isn't even fair. He leans over Kirishima and leans down, pressing his lips against his boyfriends making sure to not go too quickly, since he didn't want to cut his lip on the other male's teeth... that happened before.

He remembered how they got together. It was... honestly kinda embarrassing to remember. They had been training about a month ago and Kirishima lost his footing, because of a blast from Bakugou, so he took the chance and tackled the other male to the ground, pinning him. They both had scrapes and bruises from the fight, and Bakugou was bleeding from a cut on his cheek and Kirishima had some cuts as well but a lot less than Bakugou, because of his quirk being hardening. When Bakugou pinned him, he was panting but with a large smile on his face, looking happy that the training was going well. His smile was relaxed but so damn big and he looked so happy! Bakugou couldn't stop himself. He just thought that Kirishima looked too... too good! It wasn't fair for him to look that good even more when he was sweaty and dirty from the dirt and dust on the training ground. Plus his hair was losing the style some of the strands sticking to his forehead.

Of course Bakugou did the only thing that he could think to do he leaned down and kissed him, at first it was just supposed to be a peck but it turned into more and they were pretty much making out in the training area. The only reason they stopped was that Bakugou got a cut from Kirishima's teeth and after that, they stopped talking for a few days. The reason that they stopped talking was because Bakugou tried to avoid him. Every time Kirishima would come into the room, he would leave it.

Kirishima came over and told him that he liked him and if Bakugou was a real man, he’d admit to the fact that he kissed him! With that Bakugou got mad and they argued for a while, until the explosion male cracked and admitted to the fact he liked him. After that they got together! The kiss was messy and hard given that it was both their first kisses, but they've gotten better over the months. Bakugou had to be the best at everything dammit!

As they were kissing, Kirishima moved his arms to be around Bakugou's neck pulling him closer; his cheeks most likely a deep red which made Bakugou smirk into the kiss. He loved it whenever he got the redhead to blush even if it wasn't that hard, he still loved to see those cheeks slowly get a pink tint. The darker the better, really. The reason he liked it so much was that it was easy, but normally only for him and he'd get mad if anyone else could get Kirishima to blush that was his fucking job! Not their job.

He moves his hand to be on the couch to hold himself up the other hand going up to Kirishima's hair starting to pull his fingers through it, messing up the ponytail, not that he cared much he could just put it back up after they were done. As they kissed he hums tilting his head to deepen the kiss, that was until he heard a voice say. "Kacchan?!"

His eye twitches and he slowly pulls back from the kiss, panting softly and he looks over his shoulder to see Deku, Iida, and Uraraka standing by the door. Deku's cheeks were pink and Iida started to move his hands as he says, "You two! The common room is not for you two to kiss like this! What if a teacher walked in and saw? You should be doing this in your own room where there is no chance for you to have gotten caught! This is so against the rules that have been placed down upon us, you two should have known better than to do this!" Uraraka was snickering, having to cover her mouth with her hands, smiling.

Bakugou stares at them, silent, his eyes narrowed, his hand still in his boyfriend's hair before slowly pulling it away. Kirishima's cheeks were going a bright red as he covered his face with his hands, his hair messy because of Bakugou messing with it and he was panting softly, trying to catch his breath from the kiss.

The blasty red-eyed male rolls his eyes and glares. "Yeah whatever, I don't really care speed star, and what the fuck are you laughing at, round face? Jealous that I got a boyfriend before you did?" He said the last part, smirking. Uraraka narrows her eyes at him and puts her hands on her hips, saying, "Oh yeah, so jealous" he didn't like that sarcastic tone so he gets up from where he was laying and they started to argue.

Kirishima groans tilting his head back and he sighs, shutting his eyes. So much for having a quiet day... Iida walks over and starts to talk to him, waving his hands around, saying all of the rules that they had just broken while Deku was just watching what was going down, wondering how did he just find out about his old best friend's boyfriend?

At first, Bakugou hated the guy that was too close to him; the one that came in second with only a few points less than him. Though after the threatening, yelling, shouting and attacks he slowly started to gain respect for the young hero. They might not be perfect for each other, but they're very good for each other. Bakugou has been shouting a bit less than normal and Kirishima has gained his respect. They're both equals in Bakugou's eyes and in Kirishima's eyes he thinks Bakugou looks good all the time. Some people might not like them being together but they're both the happiest they've ever been. They're not alone anymore, they still have each other.

Their first friends in UA and first ever boyfriends.
