You and Bakugou were finishing up patrols, about to go to a restaurant for a “date”. There was paparazzi everywhere, following you two. Afterall, who wouldn’t want to cover such an unlikely couple?

Little did they know it was all fake.

The whole goal? Become pro heroes. Unfortunately, to become a top 10 hero, you need popularity. You’d do anything to be the number 1 hero- even if it means faking a relationship with someone you can’t stand.

This whole fake dating thing was for two reasons. One, nobody believed Bakugou, the hero known as Dynamight, could be kind or gentle at all. Nobody safe around him due to his explosive nature. His benefit in all of this was so people would trust him to save them

As for you? Two reasons. Nobody took female heroes as seriously as they did males. The second reason? You wanted those stupid beauty rankings to stop. You were here to fight, after all- not stand there and look pretty*

Bakugou Katsuki was the best candidate for the job! Since people were scared of him, nobody would dare to mess with him and his girl.

Of course though, faking it wasn’t easy. As now you and him were pestered every minute of the day
