Of Cold Nights and Hot Days (Kiribaku)

Episode Eight: The Contest

Episode Eight: The Contest

Mar 08, 2021

Bakugou goes back to his bed and lays down.

“Now that you know I'm fine, get out.” He says going back to his phone.

“But broooo I wanna hang out!” Shitty hair whines.

“No.”

“We can play video games.” 

“No.”

“Are you scared you’re gonna lose?” Shitty hair smirks. He knows that Bakugou never backs down from a challenge.

“You’re on Shitty hair.”

--------------------------------------

About two hours later…

--------------------------------------

“HA, I WON LOSER.” Bakugou got his fifth win of the night.

“How are you so good at this gameeee.”

Shitty hair whined.

“Bc I’ve been playing it for years idiot.”

“That’s not fair, we need to play something that I can win. Ooo I know let’s arm wrestle!”

“No.”

“If you win I will do anything you want and if I win you have to do anything I want. Deal?”

“...Fine.”

“Ok good.”

They both sit on the floor across from each other with a table in between them.

They both put their right elbows on the table and lock hands. 

“3...” Shitty hair says. They stare into each other's eyes. Bakugou is confident he’s gonna win.

“2...” Bakugou adjusts his hand.

He’s starting to doubt himself.

“1...” Bakugou holds his breath.

Too late to back out now.

“Go!”

The arm-wrestling match has begun.

And Shitty hair is winning.

Their hands are still intertwined but Bakugou's leaning more towards his right.

Shitty hair seems to be fine but Bakugou knows he has no chance of winning this and his arm is straining. He decides the only way he's gonna win this is if he “cheats”, so Bakugou uses his quirk. He uses it just enough so his hand is hot and there’s smoke in between Shitty hairs and Bakugou's hands. Bakugou notices how it catches Shitty hair off guard and hurts him so he uses this to his advantage and pushes Shitty hair's hand to his left. He might actually win this. But right as he was starting to gain confidence again Shitty hair uses his quirk so Bakugou's hand can’t hurt him and he’s winning again. Bakugou is visibly in shock. He hates losing, especially to Kirishima. Shitty hair notices how hurt Bakugou's expression looks but he wants to win. After a solid minute of staying in that position with Bakugou's hand slightly to his right. His arm is straining even more now. His arm almost loses all strength. In a matter of seconds, it’s over. 

Kirishima wins.









This has nothing to do with the story but I'm really proud of this drawing I did of Bakugou lol so enjoy I guess!

Over the years Bakugou has tolerated Kirishima a little more than anyone else and he doesn’t want to ruin the friendship, that he has now accepted that he has, with the red-haired boy. But what happens when Bakugou’s world comes crashing down and he needs a shoulder to cry on? What happens when secrets are spilled and friendships turn into romances and/or just end? Find out in Of Cold Nights and Hot Days!
