Nobody knows who Kirishima likes.

Nobody will find out either.

Not even the person he likes will get hints.

Cause right now having Katsuki as his best friend is enough.

Yeah he'd love to grab Kats hand while They're walking side by side down the hallway.

And he'd love to hug him when they split ways.

He'd love to ask him to the dance happening in 2 months.

But.

Kirishima just can't.

It's hard to.

To ask a guy, your best friend, who you don't even know is gay or not, to a dance.

A dance meant for couples!

So.

Yeah he'll just bury his feelings and hope they don't resurface in front of Kats or anyone else for that matter.

Ok.

Kirishima checks his clothes in the mirror.

He hates these stupid uniforms but its a requirement.

There's a loud slam on the door,"Oi! Shitty hair hurry the fuck up!"

Kirishima smiles,"Ok-ok! I'm coming blasty!"

Yeah.

Friendship is fine.

Kirishima fidgets with the tie until it irritates him so he just leaves it loose and grabs his bag.

"Took you fucking long enough..." Katsuki gives his onset glare then turns on his heel a d heads towards the elevator,"Hurry the fuck up Everyone already left..."

Kirishima jogs to catch up and when he reaches katsuki He's already clicking the button.

"So fucking tired..." Katsuki rubs at his eye irritated.

"You do look tired man..." Kirishima mutters and steps onto the elevator as it opens finally.

Katsuki hums a response and goes quiet.

They stand in the elevator quietly and it's not bad.

They've spent hours together it kats room without speaking a word so this isn't any different.

The elevator dings and katsuki stumps out first.

Kirishima is quick to follow.

Kirishima glances at katsuki's back.

Then a little lower to his ass.

Kats has a very nice ass.

Like in General.

"Hey! You alive!"

Kirishima startles out of his thoughts realizing katsuki had been speaking the whole time,"A-Ah- sorry Bakugo..."

"I told you to stop calling me that..." Katsuki mutters and continues walking,"I'm guessing you didn't fucking hear me while you were in la la land..."

Kirishima gives an awkward smile to show that no he didn't hear a word.

"I said Mina said something about seeing Tetsu for a date or some shit..." Katsuki mutters and avoids eye contact.

Huh?

Since when did he start having pep talk.

"Oh Yeah..." Kirishima shrugs,"Yeah its not a date... Tetsu is dating that one girl that can like make her body bigger... Mina is just hanging with them since Denki and Sero are playing vids tonight..."

Katsuki looks confused for a moment then huffs,"Yeah she said that now that I think of it..."

Ok?

Why is he being so nice?

"Are You sleep deprived Bakugo cause you're actually being nice..." Kirishima mutters with a grin to show He's joking.

Katsuki glares at him then sighs and looks at the ground.

His glare is still there at least.

Ok now kirishima is getting worried.

Katsuki never acts like this.

"Dude are You ok?" Kirishima stops walking and katsuki takes a few more steps but stops when he realizes kirishima stopped walking.

"Mr. Aizawa said I need to be better..." Katsuki mutters and drags his bag further up on his shoulder,"As in I need to stop being, and I quote, an asshole..."

Kirishima stares at him and takes a couple steps to see his expression better.

Katsuki stares at the ground blankly.

"Um..." Kirishima licks his lips,"Bakugo- I mean katsuki I don't think you're an asshole..."

"Everyone else does though so..." Katsuki grimaces a little still glaring,"Could You like... Give me some pointers or something... You're really likeable to the public and shit so... Yeah..."

Oh.

He wants advice.

"Um... Maybe like... Try saying good morning or answering with more than a hum... Like yeah or no... That's a good place to start..." Kirishima supplies in hopes of it not sounding really dumb.

Katsuki glances at him with his set bitch face and starts walking again,"Thanks..."

"No prob Bakugo..." Kirishima says without thinking.

"Call me Katsuki damnit Eij..." Katsuki mutters stalking in front of him.

Oh yeah.

"Sorry Katsuki..." He mutters with a small smile.

They don't usually call eachother by their first names unless they're alone or with their friend group.

So when they're out in public where people can hear them Kirishima switches to their formal say the last name thing.

And they especially don't say each others nicknames.

Katsuki calls him Eij.

And kirishima calls him Kats.

"Hey..." Katsuki suddenly stops walking and looks at him his set glare still there.

"Wha- Yeah? Sup man?" Kirishima stops inches from him having rushed to a stop so he wouldn't trample him.

Katsuki opens his mouth to say something then closes it again looking like he's thinking.

Ok?

Finally he starts to talk,"Eij I-"

"Yo! Kiri!" Tetsu suddenly runs over grinning.

"Oh um-" Kirishima looks at katsuki then tetsu,"Yeah hold on Tetsu... What were you gonna tell me Bakugo?"

Katsuki grumbles and turns on his heel walking away in anger.

Oh shit did he say something wrong?

Did kirishima make him mad?

Shit he probably did.

Damnit.

He doesn't wanna make him mad.

Kirishima sighs and looks at tetsu,"what's up man?"

"Oh um... I was just gonna walk with you guys but I guess," Tetsu looks at the fuming katsuki 10 feet away already,"That's not gonna happen..."

Kirishima shrugs and starts walking,"Wanna go work out this evening... I don't have anything better to do..."

"Oh hell yeah man..." Tetsu grins,"Mind if I invite one of my buddies... His name is Daichi... He's real great man..."

"Hmm... Yeah sure I don't mind..." Kirishima smiles,"Wonder if ka- Bakugo will come too..."

Tetsu shrugs,"Maybe... But I think I pissed him off he looked like he was gonna ask you something..."

Kirishima thinks about that.

Yeah katsuki was about to ask him something but he acted like he was.

Hesitant to ask?

Yeah like he was afraid it was gonna be weird or something.

DING DING DING!

"Oh fuck!" Tetsu starts running,"Kiri! The bell!"

Kirishima looks up from his thoughts to see the clock 2 minutes past class starting time.

"Shit!"
