this is the best dad katsuki thing ive ever read
This one is rlly longđ
âââ
The hospital reeked of antiseptic and tension. The fluorescent lights flickered overhead as Bakugo Katsuki paced the floor like a caged animal. His handsâusually steady in battleâtrembled slightly. Outside the delivery room, his world was unraveling.
"Mr. Bakugo," the nurse called gently. "Sheâs in distress. Weâre doing everything we can."
He didnât answer. His crimson eyes were locked on the swinging double doors that had swallowed you hours ago.
Youâhis wife, his partner, the only person who could call him a dumbass and still get a smile out of himâwere behind those doors. And you were fighting a battle even he couldn't charge into fists-first.
Twelve Hours Earlier
Your water had broken in the dead of night. Youâd barely gotten a full sentence out before Bakugo was already tossing clothes into a bag and barking at the cab company over the phone. By the time you reached the hospital, contractions were tearing through you like lightning, each one worse than the last.
Something wasnât right.
The baby was breach. Your blood pressure spiked. You were losing too much blood. They rushed you into an emergency delivery, voices sharp and fast. Bakugo hadnât been allowed in.
Present
Time blurred. Katsuki hated feeling useless more than anything. He should be in there. He should be beside you, holding your hand, telling you it was going to be okay even if his chest felt like it was going to explode.
A sudden scream tore through the hall. Your scream.
His knees buckled. He hadnât even heard himself move before he was slamming into the door, fists glowing faintly, ready to break it downâ
"Sir!" a nurse barked, shoving him back. "You can't go in there!"
"Thatâs my damn wife!" he snarled. "Let meâ"
The screaming stopped.
Too abruptly.
Bakugo froze. The world stopped moving.
Seconds felt like eternities until finally, the doors opened and a doctor stepped out, blood on her scrubs and exhaustion in her eyes.
"Sheâs alive," she said softly. "And so is your son. But it was close. Too close."
His legs gave out and he collapsed into the nearest chair. His hands covered his face as air finally returned to his lungs. Alive. You were both alive.
"You can see her now."
He stood shakily, pushing into the room. You looked like hellâpale, exhausted, barely able to lift your eyelidsâbut when you saw him, a weak smile curved your lips.
"You look like shit," you whispered.
A choked laugh escaped him. He grabbed your hand and pressed it to his lips. âDonât ever scare me like that again, dumbass.â
Then he saw the tiny bundle in your arms. Wide red eyesâhis eyesâblinked up at him.
"Hey, little guy," he said, voice thick. "Youâre already causing trouble, huh?"
You laughed faintly, and Bakugo leaned in, touching his forehead to yours.
"Next time," he murmured, "we're adopting."
---
Two Weeks Later
You were finally home.
The scent of sterilized hospital air had been replaced by the warmth of your shared apartment, still littered with unopened baby gifts and half-assembled furniture. It felt surreal, like you had died and somehow gotten a second chance.
Katsuki hadnât left your side since the hospital.
Heâd been quieter than usualânot cold, but... different. Protective. Watchful. The explosions were fewer, the yelling almost nonexistent. And at night, when he thought you were asleep, you caught him just staringâat you, at the baby, at the scar the IV left on your hand.
Like he couldnât believe either of you were still here.
You shifted slightly on the couch, wincing. Your body still ached like hell. The stitches, the swelling, the pressureâno one talked about how brutal recovery would be. You felt raw. Fragile.
"Katsuki," you called weakly.
He appeared instantly from the kitchen, a bottle in one hand and your pain meds in the other. "Need something?"
"Come sit with me."
He hesitated. "Youâre still hurting. I donât wanna crowd you."
You reached out, fingers curling in the air.
He sighed, set everything down, and slid onto the couch beside you. Carefully. Gently. You leaned your head on his shoulder, your newborn cradled against your chest, tiny breaths warm against your skin.
"He looks like you," you murmured.
"Poor brat," he said, but his voice was soft.
Your fingers laced with his.
"Youâve been quiet."
He didnât answer for a long time. Then:
"You almost died." His voice cracked. âAnd I couldnât do shit about it.â
You turned to look at him, eyes brimming. "But I didnât. We didnât. Katsuki, you didnât leave me. Not for a second. That means everything."
He clenched his jaw. âIâve fought villains who tried to kill me. Iâve been stabbed, exploded, buried under rubble. I can deal with that. But you, bleeding out and screaming and I couldnât even touch youââ He broke off. âIâve never been that fucking scared in my life.â
Tears slipped down your cheek, and you pressed your lips to his temple. âYouâre here. Iâm here. Our sonâs here. Thatâs all that matters.â
He looked down at the sleeping baby, chest rising and falling in sync with yours. âHeâs tiny.â
You smirked. âSo were you. Until puberty hit like a damn truck.â
A reluctant chuckle rumbled from him. âIf he has even half your stubbornness, weâre screwed.â
âHalf yours, you mean,â you teased.
The room went quiet again. You nestled closer, letting yourself breathe in his warmth, his scent. Safe.
âI thought I was ready to be a dad,â he said suddenly. âI trained for it. Got the nursery set up, read every damn book. But the second they handed him to me, I realized I didnât know shit.â
You smiled sleepily. âYouâre already doing perfect.â
âYouâre just saying that âcause I havenât blown up a diaper yet.â
You both laughedâquiet, tired, and a little broken, but real.
He looked at you, really looked, eyes softer than youâd ever seen them.
âI love you,â he whispered.
You blinked. Bakugo never whispered.
âI love you too,â you whispered back, voice catching.
And for the first time in weeks, you both finally exhaled.
---
Three Months Later
âYou sure youâre okay without me for a few hours?â you asked again, already halfway out the door.
Bakugo rolled his eyes, baby monitor clipped to his sweatpants, your son strapped into a carrier on his chest like a slightly confused koala.
âDâyou think I canât handle him or something?â he grumbled.
âI think he shat through three outfits before noon yesterday, and you nearly declared war on baby wipes.â
Katsuki scowled. âOne time.â
âOne time per diaper.â
You kissed his cheek before he could argue, smirking. âYouâll be fine, Dad of the Year.â
The door clicked shut behind you.
And just like that⌠it was quiet.
Bakugo glanced down at the wide-eyed little boy strapped to his chest. âAlright, kid. Just me and you.â
The baby blinked, then made a soft gurgling noise.
âYou better not be loading your diaper already.â
**
The first twenty minutes went smooth. Katsuki heated a bottle with military precision, burped the baby like a pro, and even played peekaboo without blowing anything up.
Then the baby started crying.
Loud.
Katsuki checked the diaper. Clean. Tried feeding him. Refused. Burping? Nothing. Pacifier? Launched like a missile.
âAre you broken?â he hissed, bouncing him awkwardly.
The baby wailed louder.
Bakugo, future Number One Hero, demolisher of villains, destroyer of fear itself⌠was being absolutely obliterated by a 12-pound infant.
âAlright!â he shouted over the crying. âYou win, gremlin!â
He tried the ultimate move: laying on the couch with the baby on his chest, just like you did.
It worked. Instant silence.
ââŚSeriously?â
Tiny fingers gripped the collar of his shirt, and the baby let out a satisfied sigh, snuggling deeper against him.
âTch. You just wanted to lay on me, huh?â Katsuki mumbled. âClingy little nerd.â
He didnât move. Not even when his phone buzzed. Youâd texted: Everything okay?
He snapped a photo of his son sleeping peacefully on his chest and sent it back.
Weâre good. Donât rush.
He stared at the photo for a long time, warmth blooming in his chest. The kid looked so much like you when he was relaxed. And Katsuki realized something he hadnât said out loud yet.
He loved this.
Being a dad.
The mess, the noise, the confusionâit was all chaos he could handle if it meant protecting you and this little bean.
âYouâre not that bad, yâknow,â he muttered. âMight even grow up to be cooler than me.â
The baby snorted in his sleep.
âYeah, alright, donât push it.â
**
When you walked in an hour later, you found them both fast asleepâKatsuki snoring, the baby drooling on his chest, one tiny fist tangled in his dadâs ash-blond hair.
You smiled and quietly snapped a photo.
The caption would read: My boys. Chaos level: manageable.
For now.
---
Ten Months Later
Your son had started babbling a while ago, but it was mostly incoherent nonsenseâ"ba-ba," "da-da," the occasional squeal that sounded like a baby pterodactyl mid-meltdown.
Katsuki had been watching him like a hawk, waiting for the first real word. It had practically become a competition between you twoâwho would he say first? "Mama" or "Dada"?
Katsuki refused to lose.
âYou know I carried him for nine months, right?â you said, folding laundry one afternoon.
âYeah, and I carried your ass through every post-labor breakdown, so Iâd say weâre even,â he grunted, ruffling your sonâs spiky blond hair as he sat chewing on a toy grenade (definitely plastic).
Your son looked up at him with wide, mischievous eyes and suddenly let out a loud, clearâ
âBoom.â
Silence.
You blinked. âDid he justâ?â
Katsukiâs eyes widened. âNo. No way. Say it again, brat.â
The baby giggled. âBoom!â
âOh my god.â
Katsuki stood there frozen for a moment, and then his mouth curled into the smuggest grin youâd ever seen.
âThatâs my boy.â
You threw a sock at his face. âKatsuki, his first word was âboom.ââ
âIâm proud as hell.â
âHeâs not a grenade!â
âHeâs mine, so yes, he is.â
Your son squealed again. âBoom!â
Now he was bouncing.
âStop encouraging him!â you said, even though you were trying not to laugh.
Bakugo squatted beside him and bumped their foreheads together gently. âBoom, huh? Youâre gonna be a damn legend.â
You shook your head in disbelief, watching your two pyro-twins grin at each other like chaos incarnate.
Katsuki looked up at you, full of fire and affection. âGuess we know what kind of quirk heâs leaninâ toward.â
You groaned. âWe are so not baby-proofed for explosions.â
Katsuki smirked. âGuess I better teach him control before he blows up the crib.â
Your baby babbled happily between them again. âBoom!â
Yeah. You were definitely raising a little dynamite.
And honestly? You wouldnât have it any other way.
---
Age: 2 Years, 3 Months
Your sonâs first day of daycare was supposed to be normal.
Youâd packed his snacks, extra clothes, diapers, wipes, and left strict instructions that he was âsweet, a little stubborn, and very attached to his Bakugou-brand plushie.â
You also wrote in bold: âIf he gets upset, avoid loud noises. They tend to... backfire.â
The teacher smiled politely. âWeâve handled all kinds of quirks. Donât worry.â
You didnât.
Until the phone call.
Three hours later.
Bakugo answered it on speaker.
âHello, this isâuhâMiss Hikari from Little Hero Steps Daycare. We have a small situation.â
Katsukiâs eyes narrowed. âIs he hurt?â
âNo! No, heâs fine. Perfectly fine. A little excited, actuallyâŚâ
Your stomach dropped.
ââŚbut the plastic slide may have, um... detonated.â
Katsuki let out a low snort. âHe blew up the slide?â
âIt was only the top half,â she added quickly. âAnd technically, it was more of a pop than a boom.â
You could feel Katsukiâs pride from across the kitchen.
âAre the other kids okay?â you asked, horrified.
âYes! No injuries. He wasnât upset, just⌠showing off. He said âBoom!â and thenââ
âThatâs my son,â Bakugo said, folding his arms with a smug little smirk.
You elbowed him. âThat is not a good thing.â
âDidnât say it was bad either.â
**
When you arrived at the daycare, your son was sitting on a beanbag with three teachers around himâlike he was some kind of dangerous celebrity.
His hair was wild, his cheeks were smudged with soot, and he looked way too pleased with himself.
âMommy! Daddy!â he yelled, running over and nearly tripping on his own feet.
âHey, you little menace,â Katsuki muttered, picking him up.
âBoom!â he chirped proudly, like it was his name.
One of the teachers came over, cautiously.
âWe think his quirk is starting to develop. Itâs... early, but very similar to yours, Mr. Bakugo.â
Katsuki beamed. âDamn right it is.â
You groaned. âPlease tell me weâre not banned.â
The teacher laughed nervously. âNoâthough weâre investing in more fireproof playground equipment starting immediately.â
**
That night, after your son was passed out in his crib, soot still faintly dusting his forehead, you collapsed on the couch.
âHeâs gonna be a handful,â you murmured, resting your head on Katsukiâs chest.
âYeah,â he muttered, stroking your hair. âHeâs gonna be a hell of a hero too.â
You smiled, eyes drifting closed as you listened to your husbandâs heartbeat under your cheekâsteady, strong, and forever explosive.
Just like the little boy down the hall.
---
You were pregnant. Again.
You hadnât meant for it to happen quite so soonânot when your firstborn was still blowing up laundry baskets for fun and calling it âtraining.â
But the second those two pink lines appeared, your stomach flipped. Part nerves. Part excitement. And a lot of âoh god, how is Bakugo going to react?â
**
You told him on a quiet evening. Your son was asleep (finally) and the living room still smelled faintly of scorched Play-Doh.
You sat beside him, heart racing.
âIâm pregnant.â
Bakugo blinked. He looked at you. Then at your stomach. Then back at you.
ââŚAre you sure?â
You nodded, biting your lip.
He leaned forward slowly, resting a hand on your thigh like he thought the couch might explode.
âHoly shit.â
You laughed. âThatâs⌠not the response I expected.â
He stared at your stomach for a long time before finally saying, softly, âYou okay with this?â
âIâm scared. But yeah. I want this.â
He nodded, jaw tightening. âYou nearly died last time.â
âI know.â
âYou think I can do this again?â His voice cracked, barely above a whisper. âWhat if I lose you this time?â
You reached for his hand. âThen you hold me tighter and fight harder.â
Bakugo clenched his fists, then gently rested one palm on your belly.
ââŚYou better be a chill baby,â he muttered. âI canât handle two demolition experts at once.â
**
Your son found out a week later when he walked into the kitchen, pointed to your tiny bump, and said:
âBOOM 2?â
You choked on your orange juice. Katsuki burst out laughing.
From that point on, the baby was Boom 2 to him.
**
As the months passed, your second pregnancy felt... different. Easier in some ways, harder in others. Your son was older now, talking more, asking endless questions.
âDid I live in your belly too?â
âYou did, baby.â
âWas I loud?â
âYou screamed the whole time.â
He nodded proudly. âBoom!â
Katsuki didnât stop worrying. Not for a second. Every time you winced, he was at your side. Every time you had a check-up, he came. He argued with nurses over your chart. Practically threatened the OB into promising you a safer delivery plan.
âI lost my shit once,â he told the doctor. âIâm not doing that again.â
**
One quiet night, a few weeks before your due date, he crawled into bed behind you and wrapped his arms around your belly, pulling you gently against his chest.
âStill scared,â he whispered against your skin.
âI know,â you whispered back.
âBut I want this. I want all of this. You, himââhe nodded toward your sleeping toddler down the hallââand this tiny bomb too.â
Your heart melted.
âI want them to know theyâre loved,â he added, voice thick. âNo matter how loud, or messy, or crazy it gets.â
âTheyâll know,â you promised, turning to kiss him softly. âBecause they have you.â
Katsuki didnât answer. He just held you tighter, his hand on your belly.
And somewhere inside, Boom 2 kicked like they were already ready to make an entrance.
Just like their brother.
Just like their dad.
---
It started with a kick.
Not just any kickâone that rocked your whole body at 3:12 a.m.
You groaned, gripping the edge of the bed.
Katsuki shot up like a soldier under fire.
âContraction?â he barked.
âYep,â you hissed, breathing through it.
He was already movingâbag in hand, grabbing your shoes, shouting toward the baby monitor: âStay asleep, Boom #1!â
**
This time around, the doctors were ready. And so was Katsuki.
Still, even as they guided you into the labor room, he was white-knuckling the edge of your bed, eyes locked on you like if he blinked, youâd vanish.
You reached for him.
âIâm okay,â you said between waves of pain. âIâm okay.â
âIâm not letting go of you this time,â he muttered, voice low, jaw clenched.
And he didnât.
Not when your screams broke through the walls.
Not when the monitors started beeping faster.
Not when the doctor said, âWe need to move quicklyâcordâs wrapped.â
He held your hand through it all. Pressed his forehead to yours. Whispered every curse word in the book, followed by: âYouâve got this. Youâre stronger than anyone Iâve ever met.â
And when the final cry rang outâ
A high, sharp wail that cut through the air like lightningâ
Bakugo exhaled like heâd been holding his breath for nine months straight.
âSheâs perfect,â the nurse whispered.
âShe?â you breathed, dazed.
Katsuki blinked. âA girl?â
They placed her on your chestâtiny, red, angry as hell. She immediately latched onto your hospital gown like she was ready to fight the world.
You laughed through tears. âSheâs already like you.â
Katsuki stared at her.
Just stared.
His eyesâthose wild, stormy eyesâwere wide and full of wonder.
âYouâre kidding me,â he whispered. âIâve got a daughter.â
You reached for his hand. âYouâve got us.â
He leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead, then to your daughterâs.
âI swear on my damn life,â he whispered, âno oneâs ever gonna mess with you.â
She let out a fierce little squeak.
And he smiled, completely undone.
**
An hour later, you were resting, and he was sitting by the bed with your baby girl tucked into the crook of his arm.
âName?â you asked, eyes heavy but heart full.
He looked down at her, then at you.
âWhat about Kaori?â he said. âStrong. Bright. Means fragrance or light.â
You smiled. âKaori Bakugo. Itâs perfect.â
And for the first time that night, the hospital room felt still. Safe.
Because no matter how explosive your little family was becomingâ
It was built on something unshakable.
Love. Fire. And a whole lot of Boom.
---
Two days after Kaoriâs birth, you came homeâsore, exhausted, but glowing. Kaori was tiny, sleepy, and wrapped like a burrito in her fuzzy explosion-patterned blanket that Katsuki insisted she wear home.
Your front door creaked open slowly.
Bakugo carried Kaori in with terrifying precision, like she was made of nitroglycerin.
Inside, your two-year-old son was standing barefoot in the hallwayâholding a plastic grenade in one hand and a drawing in the other.
âMommy!â he shouted, running at you.
You caught him one-armed, lifting him up, groaning slightly. âEasy, baby.â
Katsuki stood back, rocking gently with Kaori in his arms. âHey, Boom #1,â he said softly. âWanna meet your sister?â
Your son blinked, looking at the tiny pink bundle.
âThatâs her?â
âYup.â
âShe looks squishy.â
âShe is,â you said, chuckling. âGentle, okay?â
He padded over on tiptoes, peering up at her like she was some sort of sacred relic.
ââŚShe doesnât go boom?â
âLetâs hope not,â Katsuki muttered.
âSheâs your baby sister,â you explained. âHer name is Kaori.â
He tilted his head. âCan I keep her?â
Katsuki smirked. âSheâs not a pet.â
âBut I love her already,â your son said proudly. Then leaned close and whispered (as if it were a spell): âBoom.â
Kaori stirred slightly⌠and farted.
A loud one.
Your son lost it.
âSHE DOES BOOM TOO!â he screamed.
Katsuki nearly dropped her from laughing so hard. âOh god. Sheâs already like you.â
**
You all settled in the living room. Kaori slept peacefully on Katsukiâs chest while your son built a pillow fort and declared it the "Boom Base."
âShe can live in the base with me,â he announced.
âSheâs not old enough for base life yet,â you said.
âIâll protect her,â he added matter-of-factly. âFrom monsters. And spiders. And broccoli.â
You looked over at Katsuki, who was watching the two of them with a look youâd only ever seen twice before: once on your wedding day, and once when your son took his first steps.
âDidnât think I could love more than I already did,â he murmured. âBut damn.â
You scooted closer and leaned into him, Kaori safe between you.
âLooks like weâre officially a team of four.â
âCorrection,â Katsuki said. âWeâre a squad.â
A very loud, occasionally explosive, wildly chaotic squad.
And honestly? You wouldnât trade it for the world.

Summary: When Ichijiku finds out she's expecting, she worries about how her boyfriend, Bakugo, will react to the news and how it will affect their hero journeys.
Content Warning: An "f" bomb is dropped and there is mild foreplay (but it doesn't get very far).
Ichijiku (Tigress)
Katsuki says life is like a live grenade. Itâs ready at any moment to explode and see whether or not youâre worth your weight in nitroglycerine. Thus far his words ring true. Our lives have thrown us plenty of live grenades and tested the very sweat of our palms.
Like when a popular tabloid claimed I was cheating on him, or when I had a cancer scare a few weeks before our anniversary. For a time, it seemed as though we were living in a minefield, each of us skirting around problems and trying to minimize collateral damage as hardships stalked our every move.
Now? Now weâve finally managed to find some semblance of balance. Katsuki works hard to be the best at his job as a pro hero, and Iâm content being a homemaker and underground hero.Â
So when another grenade gets tossed at me in the form of two lines on a pregnancy test in our master bathroom, a thousand different worries trickle through my mind. Weâre having a baby! What are we going to need? What if I mess something up? Will I be a good mother? What if the baby hates me? Excitement shoves some of these worries to the side and even brings a smile to my face as I spin around, thinking about how cute Katsuki will look holding our child.
And then I stop.
Kids have always been a possibility, but not a possibility Katsuki has proposed in conversation, yet. Though Iâve always hoped and planned to have children in my future with him, anxiety chokes me up when I pull out my phone and just stare at the screen.
My fingers hover over the keypad as my thoughts try to coax me into it. Câmon. No need to be scared. We may not have talked about it, so heâll be a little surprised. But he canât be angry when heâs not protecting his package from procreating. I exhale, and then decide against it as ugly voices from my past convince me he wonât be happy.
Not to mention, being a pro hero is a lot of work. How can I add something onto his already-full plate right now? Nausea turns in my stomach and distracts me until Iâve hurled my lunch in the toilet.
Despite my irrational fear that heâll jump ship and leave me, I remind myself that weâve been married for four years. While my frantic heartbeat dulls to a steady buzz, I brainstorm other, cuter ways to tell him. Perhaps a bottle of Prego? Too silly. Maybe a Fatherâs Day card? Not thoughtful enough.
Ideas swirl around in my head, but Iâm no closer to an answer when I fall asleep on the couch.Â
. . . . .
Katsuki knows Iâm hiding something as the weeks pass. Iâm a little more shaky around him, a little more skittish. I canât seem to find the right time to tell him the news.Â
But thereâs no escaping him after a challenging day of hero work. Heâs always more needy after a hard day. When he goes feral thereâs no keeping my distance. We barely make it into my apartment when heâs got me flattened in his arms, sprinkling kisses anywhere his lips come into contact.Â
âTonight, Tiger? Youâre gonna beg for it, baby.â He grounds out in my ear, already pressing me against him with sparkling eyes.Â
âK-Katsuki, I need to tell you something first.â I breathe, knowing that I have to tell him now before he pulls off my clothes and figures out himself. Iâm hardly showing at all, but the smallest of bumps is noticeable under my clothes.
And I know Katsuki. Heâll notice.
âIt can wait. Damn, Iâve been waiting all day!â He shuffles us over to the couch where he starts kissing from my legs and working his way up my thighs. I use my knees to shuffle him up so I can grip his chin and make him look at me. âHey!â He growls as he catches my expression and his eyes relax again. âWhatâs gotten into you today?â
 The nerves return full swing as I think about how to say it. I feel like it needs to be special, like I have to remind him Iâm worthy of him and his child. And thereâs still that small chance in the back of my mind that heâll leave. I donât want you to leave me, Katsuki. I donât know what Iâll do if you do⌠Have a little faith, Little One, heâs been loyal thus far.
âDid something happen?â He immediately starts making assumptions as his hands rub circles under my shirt. âWhoever it was IâllâŚâ Abruptly he stops, and I freeze.
I expect the shock on his face and it terrifies me. He raises up my shirt and I let him, being so quiet I can hear the throbbing beat of my heart. His thumb rubs over my stomach. Looking at it, there doesnât seem to be much change, but feeling itâŚhe looks up at me with recognition in his eyes.
And then the grenade explodes.
âWhy the hell didnât you tell me sooner?!âÂ
âDonât you yell at me, Katsuki Bakugo!â I growl, pulling my legs up to my chest and scooting away from him. Such a small emotion seems to flood me with an intense outburst. Tears wash my hands and the comforter. Katsuki seems so far away even though heâs right beside me. âI didnât tell you because I knew that youâd get angry like this! I knew that youâd yell at me! I was trying to think of the perfect way to tell youâŚbut I was scared youâd react like this!â My breathing elevates, my body starts shaking, and my voice raises a few octaves.
I donât notice any of it. I donât give Katsuki any time to respond. When he opens his mouth, my emotions skyrocket again.
âWhat did you want me to do, Katsuki?! I couldnât tell you because I was scared that youâd tell me to get rid of it because it wasnât planned. And I wonât!â I rake my hands through my hair, bearing my teeth at him.
The room is silent for a few moments. My veins boil with unnecessary rage that bleeds into cold panic when I worry my anger will cause him to turn his nose up at me.
âAre you crazy?!â He grits his teeth at me. âIâve told you once, Iâll never take an action that ends someoneâs life! You think I'd get rid of my own kid?!âÂ
Heâs so fast. Always has been. In the next moment, heâs got my arms pinned at my sides and my lips trapped in a hard kiss. When he pulls back, his eyes are softer but he still snarls.
âStop talking nonsense. Iâm not leaving you and weâre not getting rid of the baby.â He puts a hand at my neck, sending my pulse thrumming underneath him as I start piecing his response together. âDonât you dare think Iâd be too weak to take on the challenge of my own child. Do I look that pitiful to you?â
Relief rushes through me as I finally let out a choked sob and cup his face in my hands. Then I pull him close and bury my face in his neck, giving myself a moment to regulate, before I answer.
âNo, Katsuki. You donât.â

I JUST GOT A CRUSH! áŻâ katsuki bakugou x f ! reader. 1.02k words / fluff / not proofread
bakugou is bad at social media. not exactly terrible, yet not so great either.
he really doesnât care too much for it nor does he use it that often but heâs not that unfamiliar with it. he finds himself being on tiktok from time to time though he never really bothered to make it known that he had an account in the first place, just enjoying whatever he comes across and liberally blocks accounts that come up on his fyp that pissed him off. he never posts anything either so it didnât matter. itâs a typical account with a generated username and a blank profile, 57 following, 0 followers.
recently he found a video that he wanted to share (an edit made by a fan) and posts the link on twitter, alongside saying how âitâs real sickâ of them to make that for him. he didnât even know videos like that were famous. the effort and skill it took made him think it were cool.
what he also didnât know, was that his profile would be revealed when you press on the link.
he got so confused when his account suddenly gained so many followers in just two days since he ânever mentioned it.â that was until he sees the replies on his tweet that the linked he used to share got him exposed.
he checks it out for himself which proved that he did actually share his account without knowing, but itâs âwhatever.â even after everyone found out he just used it like normal. itâs only a pain when they kept asking him to post something.
he truly is without care, yet he underestimates the fans who immediately stalk his âalmostâ empty profile. you see, he doesnât know that his reposts are public because he doesnât actually look at his own profile. itâs usually a like, like, repost, favorite, like, then close app routine that he does before he goes to bed.
there's a few funny videos here and there, cooking videos and recipes too, things he'd like to try out soon for himself, or techniques that were really helpful for him. some are also videos of fan edits that he recently discovered, where the same video he shared was at the top of the page.
yet, there was one reoccurring face that kept popping up. a pretty girl who likes to lip sync some songs or show off their trinket hauls. sometimes mini vlogs from their day to day or makeup vids. and the topic trends everywhere: DYNAMIGHT TIKTOK CRUSH
when you saw it you really couldnât believe it yourself that the one anonymous commenter on your videos was a pro-hero, your favorite nonetheless. though, it makes you a little nervous since your face is plastered all over different social platforms because youâre only active on that app. you donât know where to go from there except squeal into your pillows. definitely flattered when you recall the many times he called you pretty on your vlogs.
as the rest dive deeper into his little âcrushâ they even saw him comment on a few of your videos with compliments that sounded extra flirty. they teased him so hard saying how he looks like a creep especially with that profile. heâs never gonna hear the end of it. soon a new topic blows up that reads: GO FOR IT DYNAMIGHT
in his defense, if he were to give anyone an explanation, he thinks you have a really nice smile and a really soothing voice. also that youâre real cute and charming, thatâs why he could watch and even rewatch all your content in one sitting. he couldnât get enough of you, absolutely smitten. even had to ask kirishima how to turn on notifications for an account in the guise of turning it on for his agency's tiktok.
youâre also the only account heâs following thatâs not a cooking channel or a pro-hero. and yeah itâs basically all that, a crush. not that he expects you to actually give him a chance, heâs happy just seeing your content.
however, the poor (not really) bakugou is actually unaware of the whole situation of his âtiktok crushâ trending since he was finishing a mission. only finding out when he got a call from kirishima asking if he found a girlfriend already. âwhat the fuck are you on about?â
âyour fans are talking about how you keep reposting videos of this one girl on tiktok. i mean, itâs kinda obvious if youâre dating.â and it hits him, quick. your username (the one he could only remember, really) flashes in his head, but he laughs it off. ânah nothinâ like that. think i could shoot my shot though?â he asks him and kirishima says, âhaha! i think she already beat you to it.â
not knowing what he meant, he swiftly gets home, showers, and lays on his couch whipping his phone out of his pocket to search up your username. and there he was, staring at his phone, unable to stop the smile on his face when he sees the thumbnail of your new video. he opens it immediately and there you were, holding a dynamight figurine (a very limited one too!) close to your cheek that youâve never shown before until now. you never thought to show it thinking he might see it and think of you as weirdo. it gave the opposite effect actually, even made him more confident because who would've thought your pretty collection had a 'random guy' in there (definitely not random for you at least).
bakugou immediately likes, reposts and adds it to his favorites. even screen recording the whole thing cause you never gave access to download your videosâit was a very special moment for him okay!
he then comments, âyou can have the real thing too.â
a few minutes later itâs got your icon with a heart beside it. he chuckles, happy that you finally noticed him. beams when he gets a notification that you followed him back.
heâs definitely going to dm you after he calms down. just hopes this time you don't beat him to it again.
do not copy, plagiarize, translate, or repost my works
note : i love a katsuki with a crush i think it's so cute. but i love it even more that he's still confident about it!!! i like to think that reader probably has like 20k followers or something so pretty big but not as big as the others. the first time he met you he stumbles upon a video of you talking about the ice cream u just got and then he got hooked cause u were so cute when u were picking the flavor. PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THIS ON TIKTOK BTW >< also minors & ageless blogs please do not follow me!
Currently thinking about katsuki bakugo dragging me out of the dorms to workout over spring break because Iâm low key depressed and I donât wanna get out of bed and heâs worried but doesnât want to look like a softie.
OR I would also accept kirishima helping me do basic tasks and being all goofy, like, making me take a shower then wearing those silly headbands and doing skin care with me.
I would also very happily accept Mina making me food and opening my window to let in fresh air and cleaning my room while I showered then curling up in bed with me and watching some bad reality tv show.
Ok, i read ur rules! And say in ur master list that you do mha? If you still do mha, (idk if this is ok to ask) but can you do some fluff + angst with bakugo x fem! Reader, where she has a black magic quirk, and from a very early age sheâs heard voices in her head. And they stop for a bit but she heard them agian and freaks out! So bakugo notices shes veeery quiet and asks her whats wrong and she spills the truth about her quirk and how if she over uses it she hears voices telling her to do bad things(NOTHING SERIOUS)
Bakugo and reader have a sorta friendship but with something going on between them? (Mutual pinning)
I HOPE THIS IS OK!!! I read ur rules and i hope this isnt violating them đđ
donât worry it isnât lmao! but Iâd love to do this so tysm for sending this in! so without further ado. . . enjoy ŕ´Śŕľŕ´Śŕ´ż(â˘Ě á <) !!
đ¤ synopsis: your quirk makes you different from others..you hear voices that give you malicious thoughts. but, your âfriendâ bakugou katsuki helps you silence them and explore both of your unspoken feelings for each other.
đ¤ trigger warnings: references to intrusive thoughts, mild psychological distress.
đ¤ pairing: bakugou katsuki x fem!reader
đ¤ side note: - - > 2nd part of this story
the voices had been quiet for months. you'd almost forgotten what it was like to have that constant background noiseâthe whispers that came with your quirk. black magic, they called it. the ability to manipulate shadows and dark energy, bending them to your will. it was powerful, useful even, especially during hero training at u.a.
but the cost was something no one else could see.
use us⌠we can make you strongerâŚ
the first whisper came during lunch period. you froze mid-bite, your chopsticks hovering over your bento box as the familiar, slithering voice wrapped around your mind.
let us in⌠just a little more powerâŚ
"shut up," you muttered under your breath, closing your eyes tightly.
"the hell did you just say to me?"
your eyes snapped open to find bakugou katsuki standing over your lunch table, his crimson eyes narrowed with suspicion. of course, he'd choose now to approach. the two of you had this⌠thing. not quite friends, definitely not enemies. training partners who somehow always ended up paired together. late night study sessions that lasted longer than necessary. hands that lingered a second too long when passing notes.
"not you," you said quickly, heat rising to your cheeks. "sorry, i was justâ"
he'll think you're crazy if you tell him. everyone always does.
"just what?" bakugou dropped into the seat across from you, his lunch tray clattering against the table. "you've been acting weird all morning. more than usual."
you managed a weak smile. "didn't know you paid such close attention, explosion boy."
he scoffed, but you didn't miss the slight pink tinge on his ears. "hard not to notice when you're spacing out during combat training. you nearly got yourself blasted."
you had almost forgotten about that. earlier in the day, during all might's class, you'd hesitated just a moment too long when the voices first started whispering again. bakugou had pulled his punch at the last second, his explosion detonating harmlessly to your left instead of directly in your face.
he's waiting for an answer. lie. lie.
"i'm fine," you said automatically, the rehearsed response you'd been giving teachers and classmates for years whenever the voices got bad.
bakugouâs eyes narrowed further. "bullshit."
the cafeteria around you buzzed with activity, your classmates laughing and chatting, oblivious to your internal struggle. kirishima and the others had left bakugou alone for once, perhaps sensing he had other plans for lunch period.
he'll leave you too when he knows the truth.
"i said i'm fine," you insisted, pushing your food away. your appetite had vanished the moment the voices returned.
bakugou leaned forward, his voice dropping to a growl that somehow managed to be both threatening and concerned at the same time. "you think i don't notice when something's off with you? we've been training together for months. i know when you're lying."
you stared at him, taken aback by his perceptiveness. it was easy to dismiss bakugo as just an aggressive hothead, but you'd learned there was so much more beneath that explosive exterior. he noticed things. he paid attention.
tell him⌠see how quickly he runsâŚ
the voice was getting louder, more insistent. you pressed your palms against your eyes, trying to block it out.
"hey." bakugouâs voice softened marginallyâas much as bakugou katsuki could soften anything. "let's get out of here."
before you could protest, he had grabbed both your bags and was heading for the exit, clearly expecting you to follow. and despite everything, you did.
he led you to the rooftop, a quiet spot where few students ventured during lunch. the spring air was cool against your skin, helping to clear your head slightly.
"talk," he demanded, dropping his bag and leaning against the railing.
you hesitated, wrapping your arms around yourself. "it's my quirk."
"what about it?"
don't tell him don't tell him don'tâ
"the voices are back," you blurted out, the words tumbling from your lips before you could stop them. "when i use too much of my quirk, they⌠they start talking to me."
bakugouâs expression didn't change, but he watched you intently, waiting for you to continue.
"they've been quiet for a while," you explained, pacing now. "i thought maybe i'd gotten better at controlling it. but this morning, during training when i used that shadow field technique⌠they came back."
he thinks you're weak. broken. useless.
you shuddered, and bakugou took a step closer.
"what do they say?" he asked, his voice uncharacteristically careful.
you laughed bitterly. "oh, you know. the usual. use more power. do bad things. helpful stuff like that."
bakugouâs face darkened. "have you told anyone? recovery girl? aizawa?"
you shook your head. "my parents know. it's been happening since i was little. the doctors said it's a⌠side effect. the darkness my quirk controls, it's like it has a consciousness of its own. the more i tap into it, the more it tries to influence me."
he'll report you. they'll expel you. you'll never be a hero now.
"they're talking right now, aren't they?" bakugo asked suddenly.
you froze, surprised again by his insight. "how did you know?"
"your eyes do this thing," he said, gesturing vaguely toward your face. "they get all unfocused, like you're listening to something far away."
you'd never realized you had a tell. the fact that bakugo had noticed made something warm flutter in your chest, momentarily drowning out the malicious whispers.
"yeah," you admitted. "they're telling me you'll think i'm crazy. that i should have kept my mouth shut."
bakugou snorted. "if i thought you were crazy, i wouldn't waste my time training with you."
he's lying to make you feel better. he pities you.
"they're saying you're lying," you said softly.
without warning, bakugou closed the distance between you, his hands gripping your shoulders. the touch was firm but not painfulâgrounding.
"look at me," he demanded.
you raised your eyes to meet his fierce crimson gaze.
"do i ever say shit i don't mean? do i ever fucking lie to make people feel better?"
you couldn't help but smile slightly. "no. that's⌠actually one of the things i like about you."
something flashed across his faceâsurprise, maybe even pleasureâbefore he schooled his expression back to determination.
"then believe me when i say this. i don't give a damn about the voices. we all have shit to deal with. my quirk could blow my arms off if i'm not careful. half-and-half has his daddy issues. deku has⌠well, everything about him. your thing is voices. so what?"
he doesn't understand. no one can understand.
"it's not that simple," you argued. "they get worse when i use more power. and sometimesâŚ" you hesitated, never having admitted this part to anyone before. "sometimes i want to listen."
instead of recoiling in horror as you expected, bakugouâs grip on your shoulders tightened reassuringly.
"of course you do," he said gruffly. "power is tempting. i know that better than anyone. remember the sports festival?"
you did. his rage, his refusal to accept a victory he didn't earn. the way he'd been chained to the podium, wild-eyed and furious.
"but you didn't give in," you pointed out.
"neither will you," he said with absolute certainty. "you're too stubborn."
despite everything, you laughed. "was that a compliment, bakugou?"
he released your shoulders, a hint of that familiar scowl returning. "don't get used to it."
he'll never understand you like we do.
the whisper was softer now, less convincing. you took a deep breath, focusing on bakugo's presenceâsolid and real in front of you.
"they're quieter when you're around," you admitted. "i don't know why."
a flash of something like pride crossed his face. "good. then i'll just have to stick around more."
your heart skipped a beat. "what are you saying?"
bakugou crossed his arms, looking somewhat uncomfortable with the turn in conversation. "i'm saying next time they start talking, come find me. i'll make enough noise to drown them out."
the offer was so perfectly, uniquely bakugo that it made you smile despite everything. this gruff, explosive boy who showed his care through actions rather than words.
"are you sure?" you asked. "it could happen anytime. middle of the night. during class."
he shrugged. "so? not like i sleep much anyway."
he'll get tired of you. they all do.
"the voices say you'll get tired of helping me," you said quietly.
bakugou stepped forward again, and this time when his hand reached for you, it was to brush a strand of hair from your face with surprising gentleness.
"let me make something clear," he said, voice low and intense. "i don't do shit i don't want to do. and i don't walk away from challenges."
"is that what i am? a challenge?" you weren't sure if you should be offended or flattered.
the corner of his mouth quirked up in that half-smile that always made your heart race. "you're a pain in my ass. butâŚ" he hesitated, clearly wrestling with what to say next. "you're my pain in the ass."
coming from bakugou, it was practically a declaration of love.
he'll neverâ
the voice was cut off as bakugouâs hand cupped your cheek, his calloused palm warm against your skin. for once, his perpetual scowl was gone, replaced by something softer, more vulnerable.
"tell the voices to shut the hell up," he murmured, "because i'm about to kiss you."
your breath caught in your throat. "bakugouâŚ"
"katsuki," he corrected. "if we're doing this, you use my name."
"katsuki," you whispered, testing the feel of it on your tongue.
and then his lips were on yours, firm and warm and insistent. the voices that had plagued you all morning fell completely silent, drowned out by the thundering of your heart and the sensation of bakugouâno, katsukiâpulling you closer.
when you finally broke apart, the silence in your mind was blissful. whether it would last, you couldn't know. the voices would return eventually. but for now, with bakugouâs arms around you and his forehead pressed against yours, they couldn't reach you.
"they're gone," you breathed in wonder.
he smirked, that cocky confidence returning. "told you i could drown them out."
the bell rang in the distance, signaling the end of lunch period.
"we should get back," you said reluctantly.
bakugou didn't loosen his hold. "skip with me."
your eyes widened. "skip class? you never skip class."
"first time for everything," he shrugged. "besides, we need to figure out how to deal with those voices. might take all afternoon."
"and how exactly are we going to do that?" you asked, unable to keep the smile from your face.
his answering grin was both wicked and tender. "i have some ideas. but firstâ" he leaned in again, his lips brushing yours softly, "let's make sure they stay quiet a little longer."
as you melted into his kiss, you couldn't hear a single whisperâjust the beating of two hearts and the promise that whatever darkness came, you wouldn't face it alone.

bakugo katsuki x f!reader
angst, hurt and comfort. toxic rs (?) happy ending.
aftermath of the screaming competition youâve had with your boyfriend last night.
Synopsis: You and Bakugo were dating for years already but having a romantic relationship with him doesnât mean that heâs less meaner to you. Yesterday, he was really tired from training and overworked. When you tried to take care of him, he snapped and said hurtful things for the nth time. This has been happening over and over already.
You were laying down on the bed while scrolling on your phone. Him, on the other hand, is busy with his computer, playing a game and acting unbothered. Both of you refusing to talk to each other.
You heard him sigh to himself. His focus shifts ever so often during his match as he sneaks a glance at you from his peripheral vision. He knows he snapped at you yesterday, but at the same time he was frustrated and tired after having practiced the same move over and over for hours on end. That was no excuse to snap at you, of course, but heâd never admit that. But even while feeling a pang of guilt in his chest, Bakugo keeps his mouth shut and continues to watch his match.
The game comes to a pause and he looks over again at you. The guilt starts to eat at him more as he thinks about what he said to you yesterday. He feels the urge to say something, but his ego and pride holds him back from doing so. He sighs to himself again before deciding to talk to you.
âHey.â
You didnât, however, said anything and just keeps scrolling on your phone. That made him want to approach you, thus he sits on the bed right where you are and gives you a sidelong glance. Seeing you scrolling on your phone and looking like you donât want to talk to him, you heard him sigh to himself again.
âHey, can we talk?â
You just took a quick glance at him, âAbout what?â
Itâs not like you really donât know what he wants. He didnât fail to notice how you respond curtly. He doesnât know if itâs because youâre still mad at him or not, but he chooses his next words carefully. He doesnât want to seem like heâs being defensive towards you.
âI want to talk about yesterday⌠because I know I got a little heated and⌠said some things I shouldnât have said to you.â
He keeps his eyes on you, trying to read your expression to gauge what youâre thinking. He is honestly pretty worried that youâd give him a negative response⌠and quite honestly, that youâd just ignore him and not talk to him at all, which he honestly thinks he deserves but still doesnât want to happen.
âI just⌠need to get my head focused and I kinda lost my cool,â he says quietly as he struggles with his words. Bakugo isnât good with verbal emotions but he really wanted to express himself to you without saying the wrong things.
âItâs fine. I apologize for bothering you, too. Sorry, Iâll let you focus now,â you muttered.
âIs that it?â
You didnât fail to notice the frustration in his face as he said that. He wasnât sure if itâs because youâre not even remotely forgiving to him and youâre just going to disregard his attempt at trying to talk to you⌠or if youâre not interested in talking at all. Either of those two things makes him extremely frustrated as his ego is telling him to just ignore it, but his heart is telling him to keep going.
He furrows his eyebrows and grits his teeth while holding back the urge to get snappy with you. He takes a deep breath and clenches his fists⌠thinking carefully on what to say next.
âNo⌠I donât⌠I canât justâŚâ he pauses and looks at you for a second before he grabs your wrist, ââŚDonât just say âitâs fineâ and brush it aside.â
He moves closer to you and looks you in the eyes. He is really trying hard to get you to say something more than just âitâs fineâ right now. He needs you to say something⌠anything. He doesnât like this kind of tension between you two, especially since he is the reason for it.
He tightens his grip on your wrist slightly before continuing to speak. This clearly shows how frustrated, worried, panicked, and guilty he is with the whole situation.
âPlease⌠talk to me. Donât act like youâre just okay with it because I know youâre not.â
You were looking down, trying to act fine when it really wasn't, âItâs fine, Katsuki. Really,â you said in a low voice so he wouldn't notice your voice shaking.
He scoffs with frustration at you. He hates how you keep just saying the same thing over and over, as if you canât even be honest with him. This whole situation is really testing his patience.
âNo, itâs not fine. You wonât even talk to me!â
He says while gritting his teeth and furrowing his brows. He is trying really hard to not lash out at you, but youâre really pushing his buttons right now.
You scoff and almost rolled your eyes as you heard him. You recalled what exactly he said yesterday when he snapped at you, you were just doing what he wanted and now heâs still gonna snap at you for doing that? Shouldnât he be happy?
âIâm just not meddling with your business.â
He lets go of your wrist as he leans back and runs his hand through his hair as he tries to rein in his frustration. He is honestly getting to the boiling point at this point because you are not saying what he wants to hear.
âYouâre not gonna mess with my business? Youâve always meddled in my business,â he says dryly. He canât even help but chuckle bitterly at how hypocritical that sounds as he feels the irony of the whole situation.
You didnât respond. This is what happened last night, too. You know for sure heâs gonna keep going and repeat all the things he already said. Like what always happens.
He scoffs silently to himself as he looks at you, âYouâve always been around me and now all of a sudden you donât want to meddle with my business?â
You were keeping your head on the ground, trying not to snap because you know it wonât help. And itâs his job, not yours.
âIsn't that what you wanted?â
He furrows his eyebrows as he gives you a perplexed look. He doesnât know what youâre trying to get at, which is even more infuriating for him.
âWhat do you mean what I wanted? I never said I wanted you to not meddle with me,â he says in a slightly annoyed tone as he looks at you with a sharp glare.
âYeah, thatâs not what you said last night,â you replied, getting tired of him acting like itâs not his fault why youâre acting this way.
He scoffs as he looks away, clenching his jaw. He didnât expect you to bring that up so casually. The memories of what he said last night came rushing into his mind and honestly⌠he is starting to regret it.
ââŚThatâs not what I meant⌠you know that.â
âIt is pretty much what you meant. Thereâs no way you didnât mean it one bit when you brought it up so many times.â
âCanât you just forget that I said those things?â
Hearing that, you scoff and roll your eyes. Forget it? Just forget everything he said? How can you just forget it when everytime he snaps at you, it was the same thing he says over and over? Thereâs no way he didnât mean it, right?
He can hardly reign himself in anymore. The frustration and agitation is getting the better of him. He is clenching his fists so hard now with a murderous glare in his eyes. He looks like heâs about to explode at any second from this whole situation.
âWhy are you acting like this? Are you really that petty because I said some shitty things?â
He raises his voice and steps even closer to you, his eyes fixed on your face. At this point, heâs already lost his cool.
He continues, his voice is getting louder and louder as he talks.
âI told you to stop meddling in my business, so what? All of a sudden youâre acting like I told you to piss off and not talk to me anymore?!â
You scoff for the nth time this day, âIâm just minding my own life. Like you told me to.â
His grip on your shoulders tightens as his fingernails dig into your skin, it starts to hurt. The tension in the air is so thick you can cut it with a knife. Heâs clenching his jaw so hard it looks like heâs about to gnaw all his teeth at this point from how strained he is because of all this.
âKatsuki.. youâre.. hurting me. Please, let go,â you said weakly, almost whispering. You closed your eyes shut as you felt his grip just tighten even more, you were already feeling his nails digging right on your skin, despite wearing a sleeve.
He just scoffs and lets out a dry, bitter laugh. He tightens his grip on your shoulders even more as he locks you in place. He continues to glare at you as he speaks with a cold and sharp tone.
âWhy? You deserve it. If youâre being difficult, you should expect me to be rough back at you,â he said as if he was out of his mind.
âYouâre so frustrated you donât care if you hurt me?â you asked as if you donât already know the answer, considering how he acts right now and whenever heâs tired and snapping at you.
âLet go, please. You were hurting me verbally.. through words.. just a day ago. And now you're.. doing it.. physically. You donât even care anymore?â you muttered in a weak tone. You were tired and you canât take anymore of this anymore.
He furrows his eyebrows and his grip on your shoulders tightens even more. He clearly doesnât like you bringing that up, but he keeps his cold glare on you as he continues to respond.
âYou still deserve it and shouldâve seen it coming for you acting like this. After all, I gave you a way out when I told you to forget about it, but you just kept acting so damn cold.â
Your eyes just widened at his response. Heâs.. not thinking clearly. I deserve him hurting me physically because I did what he wanted? Because I chose to stay out of his business like he told me to? Was it my fault?
You couldnât take it anymore. You keep your eyes shut, preparing yourself to ask the question you never thought will cross your mind.
âKatsuki, at this point.. shouldnât we just.. end this?â
He stops and freezes as he hears that word come from your mouth. He looks at you with his eyes wide as he feels a wave of shock go through his body.
âEnd this..?â
He says with a disbelieving tone. He can hardly believe the words that just came out of your mouth. With that, he lets go of your shoulder. You put a hand on it, considering how it hurts so much. He was gripping it like he intended to make you bleed.
As he lets go of your shoulders, he steps back, staring at you with a surprised and disbelieving look.
âWhat do you mean end this? Do youâŚâ
He stops, the words getting stuck in his throat. Itâs almost as if his mind canât even process it.
âDo you mean end our relationship?â
He says, his voice sounding strained. His eyes are locked on your face, searching for any answers to the hundreds of questions swirling in his head right now.
You didnât say anything, and your silence was his confirmation. He stops and stares at you. He canât believe what you just said. It feels like someone had just suddenly ripped his heart out from his chest.
âWhyâŚ. Why do you want to end this?â
He asks, his voice hoarse and weak. He feels like heâs about to collapse from the wave of disbelief and shock that just hit him.
He steps closer to you and grabs you by the shoulders, looking at you with a desperate look. He just canât understand what youâre thinking, and is desperately trying to cling onto anything that can salvage this whole situation.
âCan you just⌠can you explain whyâŚ?â
He says, his voice cracking from trying to hold back the emotions in his chest right now. You shut your eyes again. You chose to ignore the pain in his voice because you know how weak you are when it comes to him.
âI tell you whatâs wrong, that you hurt me. You mock me and try to make it my fault. This just keeps happening over and over again. You donât want to change, thatâs why itâs happening again and again. Itâs tiring,â you finally said, finally saying what you have been holding back out loud.
He falters as he hears you say that. His grip on you loosens as he stares at you, trying to process the words you just said.
âIâŚ. I hurt you? Why didnât you just tell me that?â
He canât help but look at you, his expression now looking like a mixture of guilt, regret, and disbelief in himself. All this time, he thought you were just fine and didnât know that he was hurting you with how he was acting.
You try not to roll your eyes as he asked that, âI did tell you! All you replied was that I deserve it!â
He stays silent at your reply. Thatâs right. You did tell him. He remembers now that you did, but he got so caught up in his anger that he brushed you off.
ââŚI didnât mean it like that,â he says quietly. He doesnât know how to make this better anymore, the regret of his actions now weighing heavily on his chest.
He steps even closer to you, his arms now reaching out to wrap around your waist, pulling you tight to his chest. He buries his head against your shoulder, his grip on you tight and desperate as he tries to hold back the flood of emotions in his chest right now.
âI⌠Iâm so sorry,â he finally said.
Itâs as if heâs at the verge of sobbing right now. He feels so guilty and remorseful for what heâs done to you, and now itâs all crashing down on him at the thought of losing you.
You didnât do anything as he hugs you, didnât hug him back. You just let him.
His voice is weak and shaky as he struggles to keep it together. His body is trembling from the mixture of emotions in his chest right now as he continues to hold you tight against him.
âPlease⌠please tell me I can fix thisâŚâ He whispers against your shoulder, his voice raw and strained as he clings onto you, desperate to hold on.
He keeps his head buried against your shoulder, his hands gripping the back of your shirt tightly. Itâs clear that he is trying his best to rein in his emotions right now, but he is on the verge of breaking down due to the guilt and regret that is crushing his chest right now.
âPleaseâŚ. Iâll do anything, just donât⌠donât end this,â he practically pleads with you, his voice cracking slightly from his struggle to keep it together.
That was your last straw. You sighed, knees starting to give up. You were weak. Weak when it comes to him. You canât handle it when he shows his emotions.. his vulnerable side. Youâre weak and so hopelessly in love with him.
You didnât say anything but wrap your arms around him, hugging him back and burying your face against his chest.
The moment you hug him back, he lets out a shaky exhale of relief. Itâs at this point that he lets go of the last of his self control, and just breaks down into your embrace.
His whole body trembles as he clings onto you tightly, his arms wrapping around you as he buries his head against your shoulder. His body feels like itâs collapsing at this point as all the emotions in his chest just come out.
His chest is heaving as he struggles to catch his breath, his body and mind overcome with an overwhelming tsunami of emotion.
âPlease... Iâm sorry... Iâm so s-sorry...â
He keeps repeating it apologetically as he hugs you even tighter, his hands clenching the back of your shirt. Itâs like heâs scared that if he lets go of you, youâll just disappear and leave him forever.
âI promise... Iâll change. Iâll do anything to be b-better for you... Please, j-just.. donât... leave me....â
It was your first time hearing him talk like that, admitting that it was his fault, and that he will change. For you. It was the first time you see him act like this. He was scared to lose you. So scared. And you donât want to leave him either. Despite all the things that happened and what he did, you canât help but want to be the one who stays beside him, protect him, take care of him, and love him.
âIâm.. holding you onto that,â you muttered in a soft, weak voice.
He nods vigorously against your shoulder, his arms around you hugging you even tighter. Thereâs a slight sense of relief in his body now after hearing that youâre not leaving.
âI will... I promise,â he says, his voice shaky and vulnerable as he holds you like heâs holding onto dear life right now. He has no plans of letting you go any time soon.
He takes a deep breath as he continues to hold you tightly in his arms. His body is still trembling slightly as he clings onto you, the whole emotional outburst leaving him feeling weak and vulnerable. He continues to bury his head against your shoulder, not wanting to let go just yet and wanting to stay like this with you for as long as possible.
Can you pls do an âasking my gf awkward questionsâ with Bakugo abt periods or any girlsâ struggles? Ofc everything is jst pure innocence & genuine curiosity đ¤
âď¸ . . . genre. fluff
âď¸ . . . pairings. bakugou x fem!reader
âď¸ . . . requested? yes by anon
⤿ bakugou asking yn awkward questions.
It started with a TikTok trend.
Mina had dared Bakugou to try the âasking my girlfriend awkward questionsâ challenge. Of course, he scoffed and said, âThatâs stupid.â But then he saw the look in your eyes, teasing, expectant, daring him back and well⌠maybe it wasnât such a dumb idea.
So here you were, cuddled on the couch, phone recording as Bakugou awkwardly cleared his throat.
âAlright, I got questions,â he muttered, glaring at the phone like it personally offended him.
You giggled. âFire away, Katsuki.â
ââŚSo, uh. Period cramps. They actually hurt like that?â
You blinked. âYeah. Imagine your insides trying to kill you once a month.â
His eyes widened. âWhat the fâseriously?!â
You laughed, watching him furrow his brows like he was preparing for battle.
âThatâs not even the worst part,â you added casually. âThereâs bloating, mood swings, cravingsâŚâ
âCravings I get,â he mumbled. âYou ate two whole pints of ice cream last week and cried watching a cat video.â
You swatted his arm. âDonât expose me!â
He smirked, then hesitated before asking the next one. ââŚIs it true you just, like, randomly bleed? Even in your sleep?â
You nodded. âYeah. Itâs like a horror movie, but less fun.â
Bakugou looked genuinely horrified. âAnd yâall just⌠deal with it?â
You shrugged. âYeah. We kinda have to.â
There was a pause. Then he muttered under his breath, âYouâre all tough as hell.â
You blinked. âWhat was that?â
âI said youâre badass, alright?â he snapped, cheeks just a little red. âHaving to go through all that every month? Shitâs brutal.â
You grinned and leaned into him. âAww, is that sympathy from the great Bakugou Katsuki?â
âShut up,â he grumbled, wrapping an arm around you. ââŚBut yeah. I didnât know it was that bad. You ever need anything, just tell me, alright?â
You smiled, heart full. âThanks, Katsuki. Youâre the sweetest.â
He scoffed. âDonât tell the others.â

Reader ofc got hurt by this and stopped. You can decide if it's full angst and no happy ending or angst but happy ending!
If you don't like writing something like this it's fine!! I love your works btww!!đđ
Too Much
You were relentless.
Every morning, you greeted him with that same bright smile. Every training session, you cheered him on, even when he didnât need it. Every holiday, you left little giftsâprotein bars, extra bandages, even stupid handmade keychains with tiny explosions on them.
And every time, Bakugou threw them away.
It wasnât that he didnât notice you. No, everyone knew you liked him. Even he knew. How could he not, when you made it so damn obvious? You were always there, always orbiting around him, always pushing and pushingâuntil one day, he finally snapped.
It happened after class, in the locker room hallway. You had just handed him another stupid little package, a neatly wrapped box with a bow on top. Probably some homemade treat again. His jaw clenched. His patience ran out.
"Tchâjust stop it already!"
You blinked, taken aback. "Huh?"
"Just fucking stop, alright? Youâre so goddamn annoying!" His voice was sharp, cutting, full of frustration that had been building for months. "Always following me around, always giving me shit I donât need, always acting likeâlike if you do enough, Iâll magically like you back!"
Your hands curled around the gift, fingers trembling. The sting in your chest was immediate, like someone had punched all the air out of your lungs. "I-I justâŚ"
"What, huh? You think if you keep this up, Iâll suddenly give a shit? News flashâI donât!" His ruby eyes burned into you, his scowl deeper than ever. "I never asked for any of this! So just⌠fucking quit it already!"
Silence.
You swallowed hard, lips parting like you wanted to say something, but the words never came. Instead, you noddedâonce, twiceâbefore clutching the gift to your chest and walking away. No tears. No protests. Just⌠silence.
And for the first time in a long time, Bakugou felt off.
***
Days passed. You avoided him. You werenât dumbâyou heard people whisper about it. You saw the looks your friends gave you, full of pity. And you hated it. So you threw yourself into training, into your studies, into not thinking about him.
But Bakugou?
He noticed.
At first, he told himself it didnât matter. But every time he glanced at his desk and saw nothing there, every time he caught himself looking for you in a crowd, every time he found himself missing your voice, something gnawed at him.
And eventually, it ate him alive.
So one day, he found you sitting outside, staring at the sunset, and without thinking, he sat next to you.
You stiffened, eyes flicking to him, but said nothing.
A long silence stretched between you before he finally muttered, "You stopped."
You scoffed, shaking your head. "Thatâs what you wanted, right?"
His hands curled into fists. "IââŚFuck, I didnât meanâ" He exhaled sharply, frustration mixing with guilt. "Look, I was a dick. I know that. But I didnâtâŚ" He struggled, searching for the right words. "I didnât want you to go away."
You stared at him for a moment before looking away, voice quiet. "Then why did you tell me to?"
Bakugou had no good answer.
But for the first time, he reached into his pocket and pulled something outâa small, worn-out keychain. One of the stupid explosion ones you had made. The one he hadnât thrown away.
And for the first time, you saw the faintest dusting of pink on his cheeks as he shoved it toward you.
"Shut up and take it back."

You have been separated from your husband as he was on a mission for around two weeks. In that time you desperately missed him, let alone you were stressed about him not coming home to you as he wasnât allowed to make contact while there. You would pace the house, cleaning, dusting.. laying in bed.. wearing his clothes.. inhaling his scent- what could you say? You missed him. And the feeling of losing him was devastating to you.
You walked into the living room, looking at the black soft leather couch that faced the flatscreen tv on the wall across. There was a coffee table halfway between the tv and the couch, maybe just a little closer to the couch. The wall next to the tv had a picture of you and your husband, posing for his momâs modeling industry. Katsuki had requested that the photo stayed with you both rather than be released, of course this could be because of the mature outfit you were wearing. Or because he thought it was special- maybe both.
It didnât matter to you, you just loved that he kept it. After you looked away from the picture you walked to the couch, sitting down with Katsukiâs shirt onâŚ.
Turning the Tv on to watch the news or maybe a show you hadnât finished was a good way to pass time. You had no idea when Katsuki would get home, so you did little things to pass time.. the more time passed, the more exhausted you became. Being a pro hero yourself was tiring on top of all this too, besides you had a rough day at work anyway.
You grabbed the pillow beside you, laying down with your head rested on it. Little did you know, sleep was climbing its way to your eyes and mind the moment you laid down. ⌠soon enough, keeping your eyes open wasnât a main concern anymore as the sounds of the TV drained away in your head as your eyes shut and you fell asleep.
As the minutes turn to hours, you grew restless on the couch- a normal occurrence that happened while Katsuki was gone. Your mind plagued your thoughts with dreading outcomes of your husbands departure for this mission. Would he die? Would a hero return with his hero suit? Would he disappear? What if there was someone who caught his attention more?
It was an endless stream of lies and nonsense that your heart knew the truth, but your mind was clouded with delusion⌠right as it started to get loud you heard a voice that made you jolt awake slightly,
âHey⌠baby..? You alright?â
Your eyes snapped open to see your husband, looking into your eyes with a calloused hand rubbing your cheek. His ruby eyes were stern and gentle, his expression tense yet relaxed.. god.. he was so beautiful to you..
âKatsuki?.. is that- wait- Katsuki!?â
You were in shock- but that shock melted into relief, joy, saddness, love. You felt tears sting at your eyes as you gazed into Katsukiâs,
âYea, itâs me ya little shit.. Iâm home now- Iâm ok, so you can relax now..â
He made the first move, putting his gauntlets down with his free hand and picking you up from your laying position, holding you close to him. His face buried in your neck as his arms wrapped around your waist. Your legs around his waist, forcing you to straddle him- but that made it all the more better.. You hugged him back, your arms around his neck as you nuzzled your face against his neck, inhaling a choked sob,
âO-oh Katsuki.. oh my god.. I missed you so much- youâre ok.. thank the gods youâre ok..â
You sniffled into his neck, inhaling his scent. His hands roamed your body, providing gentle squeezes and comfort. You could feel him take in you and your scent as well, letting out a shakey breath. Forcing you to pull away and look at his face- surprised to see tears in his eyes and his lip trying to quiver,
âKats..? Whatâs wrong? Honey?â
Your words hit him like bricks, he growled and wiped his eyes. Swallowing thickly, he was never great with his emotions,
âWoah hey.. love.. itâs ok to cry- whatâs wrong? I never see you cryâ
You rubbed his neck, your hands trailing up to his cheeks and stroking them. His hand came over and covered one of them,
âI hated that mission⌠y/n.. I.. there were too fucking many close calls. All those fucking idiots.. fucking.. fuck- god dammit..â
You rarely ever see him break down like this.. and hearing him talk like that- the fear in his voice. It made your heart hurt, you placed a kiss on his forehead to get him to be quiet. Which earned his attention to look at you.
Some of your own tears fell and you leaned in slightly, your lips just brushing his. You could hear his breath hitch slightly, looking at your lips and your eyes before he closed the gap with a hungry and desperate yet gentle kiss. His lips moved against yours as his hand traveled up your back into your hair and the other traveled down to your ass..
it coaxed your legs to tighten around his waist. Causing him to stand and walk to your shared bedroom while making out with you.
He laid you down on the bed, his lips moving from your mouth down to your neck and collarbone. He pulled away to look at you, gazing into your eyes with a soft- stern expression,
âI think.. Iâm gonna show you how fucking much I missed your ass..â
You feel heat rise to your cheeks, smiling softly as your husbands gaze drifted down to your lips. His expression tense yet with tenderness wanting to flow through.. you lean up and kiss him softly.
He groans in response kissing you back in a deep passionate fervor⌠you moaned into the kiss and things started to heat up..
