(Nagisa & Bakugo)

= Chapter 3: Bakugo-kun's Happiness =


"Wow you're really good at this game Bakugo-san!" Nagisa complimented the older teen as they sat in his bedroom.

He was playing some hero fighting game that had amazing graphics.

Bakugo replied, keeping his eyes on the screen, "Tch. The game's just too damn easy."

Nagisa was visiting Bakugo for the day. He was supposed to come with Kirishima but the red haired teen had to clean out his garage, leaving the blunet to go by himself.

Nagisa met Bakugo's mom, Mitsuki and was surprised at how much they looked alike and understood where Bakugo got his temper from. As for his father Masaru, Nagisa was surprised at how different he was from the other two.

Mitsuki told Bakugo to keep Nagisa company, and while the blond teen was hostile at first, he eventually agreed because his mother threatened to take his gaming console.

Begrudgingly, Bakugo brought Nagisa to his bedroom before he continued playing his game. Nagisa asked if he could read some of his manga, in which Bakugo just said, "Whatever" and Nagisa took it as a "Yes".

After a few pages in, the blue haired teen soon brought his attention to Bakugo who was playing the game, which brought the story to now.

"Yeah, but you're super good!" Nagisa went on, watching how the blond's player easily took out his opponent. 'He reminds me so much of Karma.'

Bakugo simply shrugged, keeping his focus on the game. The other male, noticed how relaxed he was playing the game, a far contrast from how he was at school.

'Well except when he's around his parents, he's still the same.' Nagisa sweatdropped, 'Maybe, he's just different when he's by himself.'

Minutes past and Nagisa became more intrigued by the game, eventually putting the manga back on its shelf.

He took a seat next to Bakugo, causing the other male to glance at him for a moment before looking back to the game. It was strange, this kid who he had treated like trash from the moment he joined the class, was sitting in his house like they had known each other for years.

'Tch, just like the shit nerd.' The blond thought. 'No, he's different…'

Bakugo smiled slightly, just before defeating his opponent with a final attack. Nagisa's eyes were sparkling in awe.

"That was awesome! You're so cool Bakugo-san!" The blunet said amazed.

"It was nothing."

"No it wasn't! It was awesome!"

Bakugo stared at him, with a raised eyebrow. "You're weird."

"What?" Nagisa pouted. "No I'm not!"

Bakugo chuckled, "Yes you are."

The blunet's eyes widened, "I've never heard you chuckle before!"

"So?"

"Well, it's just most of the class say you avoid smiling and laughing like the plague."

"Who the fuck said that!? Give me their names!?"

"Sorry but I don't wanna rat them out." Nagisa sweatdropped.

Bakugo realized he let his guard down and returned to his game with a straight face. "I just never have a reason to."

"To do what?" The blunet asked.

"To smile and laugh and all that junk," Bakugo said. "There's never a reason to."

"That's not true. There are lots of reasons," Nagisa said, looking back at the screen as well. "Playing your favorite game, watching your favorite movie, reading your favorite book or listening to your favorite song!

"Eating good food, doing well at school, achieving your goals and having family and friends and spending time with them. There are so many reasons to smile and laugh and just be happy." Nagisa said.

Bakugo kept his gaze on the screen. "Most of those sound cheesy." He stated bluntly.

"Well yes, they do." Nagisa scratched his cheek. "But I don't think it really matters. Those things, although cheesy still hold meaning, but now that I think about it…" Nagisa turned his blue eyes to the other and smiled. "You don't really need a reason to smile and laugh. It honestly just feels good be happy, even when things aren't going your way, even when you lose something, even when the entire world is against you.

"Being happy, just being happy is probably the most awesome thing you could ever be."

Bakugo paused his game and thought about the other's words. "Even more awesome than becoming the Number One Hero?"

"Well, I'm sure you'd be happy about that, wouldn't you?" Nagisa winked.

The blond teen stared at his controller for some time before he chuckled, just as that chuckle turned into full blown laughter. But it wasn't an evil laugh, it was honestly...genuine. It did feel good to smile and laugh.

This kid was something else.

He finally stopped and wiped a tear from his eye. When was the last time he laughed so hard?

"You really…" Bakugo tried to collect his words. "You really are weird." He chuckled before smiling. "You're a fucking weird kid? You know that?"

"Well, I wouldn't call myself normal." Nagisa said before smirking. "Of course Bakugo-san is weird too. He's always angry and yelling at people!"

Bakugo's smile turned into a scowl as he glared the younger male. "That's because people are fucking annoying! Especially that Shit Nerd, Deku!"

"It's okay Bakugo-san, it's perfectly normal to be weird!" Nagisa smiled brightly.

"I AM NOT WEIRD!"

"Uhuh, sure."

"SHUT UP YOU BLUE TWERP!" Bakugo shouted before unpausing his game and smashing the buttons of his controller aggressively.

Nagisa giggled which brought the other's attention back to him.

"What's so fucking funny!?" Bakugo snapped at him.

"Oh, nothing. Eijiro-san said that you've been pretty down lately after a recent incident that happened. I didn't think it was any of my business so I didn't ask any further.

"He wanted to cheer you up by hanging out with you today but he got caught up with some other things, although I still wanted to come see you so maybe I could cheer you up somehow." Nagisa explained, as he closed his eyes and grinned. "I thought it be hard but turns out Bakugo-san is a happier person than I thought. I didn't even have to try!"

At that, Bakugo felt something warm inside his chest. It suddenly felt lighter, like a bit of the weight had been lifted. This kid, he didn't know where he came from, and he didn't know that much about him for that matter but…

Bakugo smiled.

...This kid sort of understood him.

'So I'm a happy person huh?' He thought, 'No one's ever told me that before.'

"Nagisa, right?" The blond asked and said male was surprised he remembered his name.

"Yeah that's right!" Nagisa affirmed.

"Here," Bakugo handed him a controller which he kindly took into his own hands. "You can play too."

"Wow, really?" Nagisa said in excitement. He quickly sat properly before he realized something. "But wait, I don't know how to play…"

"Duh, I'll teach you." Bakugo said with a light expression, which was quite foreign on his face.

"Awesome!" Nagisa piped.

"Oh, um, you can...you can call me Katsuki." Bakugo offered but felt super embarrassed after saying it.

"For real? I can call you by your first name?" Nagisa asked.

"Yeah, just don't fucking call me that in front anyone but Kirishima, you hear?" Bakugo threatened and Nagisa sweatdropped but nodded his head anyway.

"Oh and one more thing…" Bakugo started, his eyes glued back to the screen.

Nagisa blinked, "Yeah?"

"..."

"..."

"...Thank you."

"Your welcome, Katsuki-san."

In the end, Nagisa was able to cheer Bakugo up. Turns out, he was just the friend he needed.
