Why You, Why Me? Chapter 14: A healing kiss

He leaned in a little closer and your breathing hitched.

“Wait… Bakugou, wait.” You breathed, placing your hands on his heaving chest. “But I don’t know if I feel the same way?”

He pulled back sharply. “You…..don’t?” He sounded hurt. A pained look came across his face.

“Well I don’t really know? I’m not sure yet?” You responded. Confused by your own feelings.

“I misread this whole situation then.” He growled in frustration. Angry that he shown his true emotions only to have it thrown back in his face. He still stayed caging you in though, he had his head turned away from you in embarrassment.

“But… I need to ask… do you actually like me? I thought you said that I was flat and nothing to….”

“I know what I said before and I told you I didn’t mean it.” He interjected through gritted teeth, glancing at you from the corner of his eye. “What I said was supposed to diffuse the situation. Make you feel more comfortable about the fact that I had seen you naked. What? Would it have been better if I had said it was a hot body?! You would have called me a perve and freaked out.”

You looked down. “Oh…” you said softly.

“Y/N, I like you. A lot.”

You looked back up at him. He had looked away again and had a deep scowl on his face.

You sighed again. “I’m sorry Bakugou, I know you’ve put your emotions on the line…”

He took a step back and shoved his hands in his pocket. Blinking furiously a few times to hold back the tears that were springing up in the corners of his eyes. “Shit! Why am I crying?! This is so embarrassing. This is why it’s bad to get attached to anyone.”

He turned to walk away but you grabbed him. “Wait. Don’t leave.”

“Why? If you don’t like me then I should probably go and leave you be.” He said. His words hurt you. Why did they sting like that if you didn’t like him?

“I never said I didn’t like you… I just don’t know….” you hung onto his sleeve.

He turned and caught your lips against his swiftly. You stiffened in surprise but the contact was definitely welcomed by your body and the next second you were kissing him back just as fervently as he was kissing you.

He pushed you back up against the wall and held you there, his hands wandering your body firmly yet gently. He didn’t touch anywhere that was inappropriate but he definitely made it known he liked what he was feeling,
His lips parted slightly and his tongue brushed your bottom lip. A tingle rushed through your core and you parted your lips in response, allowing him to slip his tongue into your mouth and intertwine it with yours.

You wrapped your arms around his neck and pulled your body against his. His hands slipped to your hips and he encouraged the contact.

Your brain went fuzzy and a ringing sounded loud and clear in your ears. Suddenly bursts of light flashed in your vision but you were too captivated by his kiss to pay attention to what was going on around you.

The kisses were getting hotter and more passionate. A carnal need fueling the aggression behind the movements of his lips and tongue. He groaned softly as you upped the pace, wanting him as much as he wanted you. You had never kissed anyone before but this just felt so right. Suddenly your head spun and you pulled away, grabbing for your temples.

“Oi. What’s wrong?!” He asked, breathlessly. “Y/N?”

You were still holding your head. A strong grimace expression on your face. “It’s….”

“Are you going to have an attack?” He asked, holding you by the shoulder. He looked you over. “No… this is different to the seizures.”
“Y/N talk to me…” He encouraged, bending his head to try and get a better look at you.

“I can…. see… everything.” You replied brokenly. His voice was penetrating your thoughts.

Flashbacks and dialogue from the times you were in his body burst in your mind. Everything was coming back. You were remembering everything about the body swaps.

“Bakugou.” You breathed.

“Yes?” He asked worriedly.

“I remember… I remember you!” You exclaimed excitedly, the strange sensation subsiding in your brain. You looked up at him. “I remember! I remember the body swaps, I remember everything!” Your face broke out in a wide smile and you threw your arms around him. “Thank you! Thank you so much!” You cried into his neck.

He hugged you close and hid his smile into your shoulder, staying quiet as you rejoiced. “Do you feel ok?” He asked, pulling back to look at you.

“Yes! Yes I feel perfect! I feel too good.” You giggled. “Bakugou thank you! Thank you!” You hugged him again. “Wait…” you pulled back, your face falling. “Do…. do you actually like me or did you lie so you could help me?”

Bakugou looked offended. “How could you ask that?! After all I just said and did?!”

“No… no I just thought you might have made it up to help me?” You said, saddened that you might have hurt him again.

“Ok listen.” He said, grabbing you by the shoulders. “I like you. A lot. I’m attracted to you. I think you’re hot, ok?” You blushed. “I’m glad I was able to help you and I also got to kiss you too, which is what I had been wanting to do for ages.” Your blush deepened. “At this point I’m ok if you don’t like me back… I guess I can live with that.” He said, scratching his cheek and glancing down.

You stepped back in and forced him to look at you. “No Bakugou, I definitely like you.” You said, leaning back in and planting your lips on his again. “I’d be stupid to let my soulmate go like that.” You smiled coyly.

He smirked. “Be careful what you say, with the way I’m feeling about you right now we’ll be more than soulmates.”

Your face went bright red.
