You and Bakugo were kinda friends???

You were extremely quiet. You never spoke. But Bakugo? He was loud and brash and rude. But what you see in a friendly light was how he’d want you to be his assigned partner in school, how he’d share his lunch if you forgot yours.

He stuck around and told nobody to mess with you, thinking that you’d never be able to defend yourself.

One day, you and Katsuki were walking home and there was this old lady on the same sidewalk as you. You were going to go around her, but then she started screaming and started to push you into the road. Screaming to get off the sidewalk and stop harassing her.

Katsuki was gonna separate her from you, not wanting you to, well, fall into traffic. Which is why he was surprised when you punched her.
