Not So Secretive

———Ochako was the first to back way from the hug. "So um...I don't know about you but I think I'm gonna go get breakfast." she chuckled softly.

Bakugou's gaze on her softened. "Go ahead. I'll join you in a bit." he said as he walked out of the room.

"Wait...you'll join me?!" Ochako asked, a bit surprised. She assumed that Bakugou wouldn't want to be seen around her...despite the fact that he said that she wasn't embarrassing.

Bakugou, ignoring her question, continued to walk away. Ochako watched him for a moment before shrugging off her curiosity. She walked to the kitchen to find something to eat. A few of her classmates (Sero, Mina, Jirou, and Kaminari) were already there, hanging around and eating. Ochako instantly felt nervous again, knowing what happened last night.

She hid her face with her hair and walked past everyone to grab some cereal. But as expected, Mina immediately caught her suspicious behavior.

"Hey, Ochako! Who are you hiding from?" Mina teased with a grin.

Ochako froze in her place as she was about to pour her cereal into a bowl. She stayed quiet for a moment before answering, "N-No one! I'm just...cold...I guess." she said, still unable to move.

With this, all four of her classmates grew suspicious. They all have each other a curious look.

"If something's wrong, you know you could tell us, right?" Jirou said, concerned for her friend.

"Nothing's wrong..." she replied as she awkwardly put the cereal box down.

Mina walked up to Ochako and put her hand on her shoulder. "If it's because of what Bakugou-" Mina said before being cut off.

Ochako turned to Mina wide eyes and a red face. "What...what do you mean?! Nothing happened between us!" she shouted nervously.

"Well we all know that Bakugou has had some sort of soft spot for you later...it's pretty obvious. What's going on?" Mina asked curiously.

Just before Ochako could find a deflective response, Bakugou entered the kitchen and immediately walked up to the two. "Stop bombarding her with questions, Racoon Eyes." he said firmly.

Mina crossed her arms and pouted. "I'm just worried about my friend." she said before poking his shoulder. "What's going on with you two hmmmm???" she teased.

"Don't fucking touch me." he growled quietly before grabbing Ochako's bowl and the cereal out of her hands, somewhat aggressively, and pouring the cereal into the bowl for her.

Ochako stared at him as if he were crazy while the others watched Bakugou with a raised eyebrow. They all watched in silence as an irritated Bakugou finished making Ochako's cereal before he grabbed her hand firmly and pulled her out of the kitchen.

"That's...new." Kaminari said.

The others nodded in agreement before walking out of the kitchen to watch Bakugou and Ochako from a distance.

Bakugou sat Ochako down at a table and gave her her cereal before sitting next to her and getting on his phone.

"Thanks Bakugou..." she said really quietly with a shy grin on her face before eating the cereal nervously.

"No problem." Bakugou said calmly. He still had a slight scowl on his face but he was less upset now that he was away from the others and alone with Ochako.

While Ochako ate her cereal and Bakugou scrolled on his phone, Mina, Jirou, Sero, and Kaminari watched in awe.

"Something is definitely going on with those two." Mina said.

Sero nodded. "Maybe that whole teamwork assignment thing worked for them...somehow."

"The chances of that are low but...not impossible...I think...." Jirou said, unsure of herself.

Suddenly, Tsu and Momo came running to the four eavesdroppers and pushed them back into the kitchen.

"Hey! What was that for?!" Kaminari shouted.

Momo shushed him before speaking. "You guys see how weird those two are acting, right?" Momo asked. Everyone nodded. "Well Tsu and I think that...they might be...dating." she added.

Everyone's eyes widened. "WHAT?!" they all shouted in unison. Momo and Tsu shushed them.

"How'd you come to that conclusion?!" Mina shouted quietly.

Momo and Tsu looked at each other nervously before turning to the others. "Last night, when I was sleeping, I was woken up by...um...some... 'sounds' coming from from Ochako's room..." Tsu said quietly, "And I heard Bakugou in there as well..." Tsu then looked at Momo.

"And when I was leaving my room this morning, I saw Bakugou leaving Ochako's room." Momo said in disbelief.

Jirou, Sero, and Kaminari stood there in shock while Mina was smiling ear to ear. "Are you guys being for real?! There's no way you guys are serious!" Mina exclaimed.

"Yes we're serious." Momo said before walking to the fridge to find food. "We don't know how it's even possible but they're clearly 'involved' with each other..."...

Whilst the group in the kitchen were freaking out about Momo and Tsu's experiences, Ochako finished her cereal and turned to Bakugou.

"Uh...Bakugou?" she asked shyly.

"Hm?" he said as he put his phone down and looked at her.

Ochako blushed and looked away from him. "Are you...ok with others knowing about us?"

Bakugou sighed and leaned back in his chair before tapping her foot with his, making Ochako gasp. He smiled briefly at her reaction to that before responding, "How else would losers know that you're mine if I don't show 'em?"

Ochako smiled softly and shyly returned her gaze to Bakugou. "Yea...that makes sense I guess."

"I was the one who said it; of course it makes sense." he said somewhat loudly.

It was a lot like Bakugou to say something like that which made Ochako laugh. Bakugou smiled, knowing that he was the one to make her laugh. "You're real fucking cute, you know that?" he said as he crossed his arms and tilted his head slightly.

Embarrassed, Ochako hid her blushing face behind her hands, causing her to start floating. "I-I...I'm not!" she shouted nervously.

Bakugou stood up and grabbed her arms and pulled her toward him, pulling her hands away from her face in the process. He lightly kissed her forehead before pulling her into a hug. "Cut it out with that insecure shit. You're cute as hell, Pink Cheeks."

Ochako smiled softly into his chest and wrapped her arms around, still floating. "I'll try...thanks..." she said quietly.

"You won't try. You will." he said as he hugged her tighter....———
