chapter 10

Bakugo's POV

I walked to the dorms, sweaty and tired. I decided to spend more time in the school gym, and just left in time for a shower then dinner. I didn't want to see Deku, not after what he said. I was part of the reason he became a villain. I remember the last time I saw him was when his crazy wife was going to stab me.

But when I opened my eyes, Deku was holing the blade sticking out of his palm with blood running down his arm, some of his blood was splattered on my face. Then he started to go off on Toga as he grabbed the food and ran, his cursing heard until he was out of the restaurant.

If he hated me why did he save me from being stabbed? I didn't think into it much as I walked through the dorm doors. Only to be hit by the sickly sweet smell of cookies. I walked over to the kitchen to see Toga chatting away with Uraraka and Tsu, and Todoroki talking to what I assumed was his brother.

"No no no!" I heard a voice say, "I've learned that you add a bit more vanilla. That makes the cookies just right."

My eyes connected with Deku as he wrestled with Sato, trying to add more vanilla into cookie dough. He looked so innocent and not like the number two villain or the boy I saw in class. And all the villains were connecting so well with the others.

"Izuku!" Toga yelled from her spot by the counter, "When is the first batch gonna be ready Baby?"

Deku looked at a timer and turned to Toga.

"Three minutes Love," Deku sent her one of the smiles I've missed for nine years, "Be a lil patent. And trust me on this Sato! You already made a batch your way, so lets make a batch my way."

Sato sighed in defeat as he moved to the side, and Deku poured vanilla into the cookie dough. He mixed it with a large smile on his face, but that smile quickly faded once his eyes connected to mine.

"Kacchan." Deku said, but there was no venom in his voice.

"Hey Deku." I replied as he narrowed his eyes, "Um...sorry about earlier, I didn't know about Ink-"

"I don't care." he replied nonclonally, "The past needs to stay in the past Kacchan."

I just frowned as he sent me a small smile and sarcastically said,

"Besides, it's not like I really blamed you. I could have easily killed you when we were younger but me being the masochist I am, enjoyed every minute of being beaten a inch from my life."

"Izuku!" Toga screeched, "Stop flirting with your childhood psychopath! Flirt with your wife instead."

"Will do Love." Deku replied as he gave Toga a two finger salute, then went back to his cookie dough, "But I wasn't like that back then Kacchan, don't worry."

Maybe we'd be fine? At least I hope so.
