Hello, everyone! I'm thinking this chapter is going to be relatively short, like maybe shorter than chapter one. I just don't have all that much to go off of. I hope this chapter is still enjoyable. I'll try my best to avoid little spelling mistakes again. I reread the second chapter, and I found several small spelling mistakes. I fixed them, but I still don't like the fact that I missed them in the first place. Also, I wanted to say thank-you to SaniyaMoosvi for the kind words of encouragement. You might not have said much, but those few words still meant a lot to me.

Youta, the orange kitten, jumped about wildly on the floor, trying to spur on a siamese cat. The siamese cat belonged to Bakugo's mother, and his mother had named her Hoshi, because her eyes glittered like stars. Hoshi looked at the kitten confusedly. Little Youta tried to jump on Hoshi, but Hoshi batted him with her paw. The orange kitten rolled on his back before jumping back up and attempting to jump on Hoshi again.
Bakugo sat at the table, watching the two felines play. Well, it was more like Hoshi smacking Youta around, but it still seemed fine with the little orange kitten. In a way, the kitten was a lot like Bakugo. They both refused to give up, whether the matter was serious or just play. Bakugo sighed as he rose from the table. He had to bring the kitten to school, so Aizawa could see him. School had let out not that long ago, but Bakugo had rushed home to avoid his classmates. Aizawa had said that he'd be in the teacher's lounge. Bakugo scooped up the kitten and made his way to the door.
Bakugo peered around the corner of the hallway. Luckily for Bakugo, the coast was clear. Bakugo let out a breath of relief. Several of his classmates had already seen him with the small feline. The girls had cooed over the kitten, saying how cute he was and how sweet Bakugo was. The guys that he had run into had joked with him a bit before they admitted that what he had done was actually pretty cool. That had made him feel a little bit less embarrassed about the situation.
Bakugo sneaked down the hallway to the teacher's lounge when Izuku came out of the teacher's lounge. "Goodbye, Mr. Aizawa!" Izuku said as he waved and closed the door. Bakugo felt his blood boil slightly. He gritted his teeth and growled, catching Izuku's attention. Izuku took a step backwards. "O-oh, h-hey, Kachaan…" Izuku greeted nervously as sweat began to form on his brow.
"Deku…" Bakugo growled back.
Izuku looked down at the furry animal that Bakugo held gently in his hands. "Is that the cat you rescued?" The glare that Bakugo sent him was enough of an answer. "Well, I better get going. Bye!" Izuku said quickly. He then walked away from Bakugo swiftly.
Bakugo huffed and walked into the teacher's lounge. Aizawa sat on the couch in the teacher's lounge. "Hello, Bakugo," Aizawa said. Aizawa spotted the creature that Bakugo held. "What's its name?"
"Youta," Bakugo answered simply.
Aizawa nodded thoughtfully. "May I hold him?"
Bakugo gave him an odd look but nodded. As he was handing the kitten over to Aizawa, the blond said, "I didn't think you liked cats, Mr. Aizawa."
"Why?" Aizawa asked as he watched the kitten play with his scarf. "Because I'm a Pro Hero?"
"No, sir. You just don't look like the type. You don't act like the type, either."
Aizawa stared at him with his weird smile plastered on his face. "Neither do you."
At that, Bakugo clammed up. "I don't show this side of me when others are around. There are only a few people who know." Aizawa turned his attention back to the kitten. He scratched the kitten's head. "You're the same way, Bakugo. You don't want people to know about it because you're embarrassed. You think you have to keep your reputation as a tough-guy, and if people found out that you liked something that isn't considered tough, then people would think the exact opposite of you, correct?"
Bakugo was speechless. His mouth was open in surprise. It was almost as if Aizawa had read his mind.
"Yeah, I figured that was why. Listen, just because you like something like cats doesn't make you any less tough. If anything, not admitting it makes you less tough. And if anyone thinks that you're any less tough now, well I know you'll prove 'em wrong in our next training exercise."
Aizawa lifted the orange puffball up and handed him back to Bakugo, who was still silent with shock. "You can go now, Bakugo."
As Bakugo left the teacher's lounge, he felt his embarrassment melt away. Yeah, so what if he liked cats?! He was Katsuki freaking Bakugo! He was still as tough as ever!
Only a little shorter than the first chapter. I think I did well on this chapter. I feel like Aizawa was a bit out of character, same thing with Bakugo, but I couldn't remember what Bakugo would called Aizawa. Aizawa is just really hard to write correctly. I'm thinking about another story called 'Cherry Blossoms' where I find a new way to torture Izuku that doesn't involve Bakugo or broken bones! I'd like for you guys to try and think of some ideas to continue this. I want to continue writing with this idea, but I just can't think of ideas. Plus, I want you guys to get involved in this. Anyways, until next time!
