There were a few things Bakugou enjoyed secretly in this world. One of those was your voice. You were just as snarky and tempered as he was and he loved hearing you curse profanities at him whenever he teased you or trained with you. During the war, Shigaraki almost killed you. Crushing your neck until you could no longer breathe.

You survived the war, fortunately. While, Bakugou was required to stay calm to protect his injured heart. As you returned to UA everyone waited for you expectantly. Only to find out you couldn’t speak as the doctor forbid you from speaking. Your vocal cords were heavily damaged and needed at least two months to heal. Bakugou was absolutely devastated. Everyone began to learn sign language for you. Everyone except for Bakugou. He learned alone and in secret.

You sat in the common room studying for an upcoming exam in Hero History. Bakugou walked up to you and sat next to you. It was no surprise he was calm, he needed to heal his heart. You grabbed a pen and paper to talk to him thinking he didn’t know sign language when he stops your hand.

“I can read sign language, idiot. Put that down and sign to me. I just wanted to check up on you and make sure you’re not being stupid.”

He gently squeezed your hand. Reassuring you to put down the pen and paper. After all, he barely slept as he learned to master sign language. Just so he could talk to you and understand you again. You gave him a small nod before putting away the pen and paper. Wanting to see if he can really understand you.
