The self-proclaimed ‘Bakusquad’ were all chilling in Kaminari’s room, just sitting on their phones. It was mid-summer and they had the A.C. blasting, though it was too hot to move too much still.

Ashido laid on Kaminari’s bed with Sero and Kaminari, all draped over each other and laying down. Bakugou and Kirishima sat next to each other on the floor, backs against the bed as they surfed the internet.

It was a comfortable silence for a while until Kirishima broke it. “Do you guys wanna play a game or s’mthing?” he asked and everyone hummed. “Uh, sure. What do you wanna play?” Sero asked sleepily, sitting up. Kirishima shrugged lazily and turned to Bakugou. “What do you wanna play?” he asked, leaning his head against the bed.

Bakugou scowled and shrugged, focusing on his phone. “I don't fucking know.” he muttered. Kirishima sighed out and turned his head so he could look at the three on the bed. Ashido had untangled herself from Sero and Kaminari, who were now just cuddling the other.

“We could play Mario Kart.” Ashido suggested, rubbing her eyes. The sun was setting outside, illuminating the room up with red and orange lights. Kirishima hummed in acknowledgement. “Sounds good. You guys wanna play?” Kirishima asked, looking at the others.

Bakugou turned off his phone and nodded a little. “Yea, I’m gonna kick all your asses at Rainbow Road.” he claimed. Sero rolled his eyes, sitting up, making Kaminari whine at the loss of touch. “Rainbow Road is or hackers.” Sero claimed and Bakugou scoffed. “You’re just saying that because you suck.” Bakugou retorted.

Sero snorted. “Oh, now it’s on.” he said and stood up, grabbing controllers and turning on the Wii. Kirishima snorted as Sero tossed him a controller. Bakugou grabbed one and Ashido grabbed the last one from Sero, Kaminari just watching as he tried to wake himself up, leaning on Sero.

After a few rounds, Kaminari made Sero hand him the remote for a turn, seeing as Sero was repeatedly making last place anyways. Bakugou had stayed in first place the whole time, Kirishima and Ashido fighting for second place. Now that Kaminari was playing, Bakugou actually had more of a challenge, seeing as Kaminari grew up with this game.

After another hour or so, Kaminari finally one and cheered, high-fiving Sero. Kirishima snorted at the two. “It’s one win against, like, seventy.” he pointed out and Kaminari closed his eyes, sticking his tongue out. “Sorry, what was that? Couldn’t hear you over the sound of me winning!” Kaminari said and Sero laughed.

Bakugou rolled his eyes, setting his remote down. “I let you win, fucking Pikachu.” Bakugou said and Kaminari nodded his head sarcastically. “M-hm, totally. Sure.” he teased and Kirishima stood up. “I’m raiding your kitchen for snacks, Kami.” he said and Kaminari nodded as Sero grabbed Kirishima’s remote, continuing in their race.

Kirishima opened a few cabinets and took out a bag of chips for him and Kaminari before getting a bag of chili flavored doritos. To him, they were spicy, and disgusting, but he knew Bakugou liked spicy foods so he figured the angry blonde would at least appreciate the thought. Kirishima also found some random candies he thought would please Ashido and Sero and walked out of the kitchen, balancing the snacks in his arms.

He entered and tossed the bags of candy at Sero and Ashido, who caught them in turn. He tossed the doritos to Bakugou and sat next to Kaminari to eat the chips. “Thanks Kiri!!” Ashido yelled. Kaminari rolled his eyes. “It’s my food.” he muttered, and Sero laughed.

They paused their game so they could all eat and chat, Ashido moving to sit with Bakugou on the floor and Sero leaning his head on Kaminari’s shoulder. “Ugh, really, right in front of my potato chips?’’ Kirishima joked and Sero stuck his tongue out.

“You’re just upset because you're too chicken to ask you-know-who out.” Sero retorted and Kirishima’s face flushed. Bakugou started choking on his own chips and started pounding his chest to start breathing again. Everyone turned to him with wide eyes and he glared at them.

“You okay, man?!” Kirishima asked, concerned and Bakugou rolled his eyes. “You have a fucking crush on someone?” Bakugu hissed out, voice still sore from choking. Kirishima averted his eyes and nodded. “Who the fuck is it?” he growled out harshly and Sero coughed awkwardly.

“It’s-you don't, you don't know them. So, yeah.” Kirishima said and played with his fingers. It was dark outside now, but Sero had turned on the bedroom lights a while ago. An awkward silence flew around the room and Kaminari smiled. “Hey, Kiri. You should definitely ask him out soon. then we could go on a double date.” Kaminari said and Kirishima glared at him.

“ Him ?” Bakugou asked, looking at Kirishima who nodded. “Uh, yeah. I-I’m bi. So… yeah.” Kirishima shoved a handful of chips in his mouth and Ashido laughed from the floor. Bakugou scowled again before eating a few of his own chips and Sero laughed too.

“I might kill myself they’re so stupid.” Sero muttered and Ashido nodded while Kirishima blushed. “Shut up, Sero.” Kirishima said, shoving a pillow in his face. Sero let out a bubbly laughter as the red head attacked him.

“RETALIATION!!!” Sero shouted, grabbing another one of Kaminari’s pillows and smacking the redhead. Kaminari’s face lit up and he slipped past the two fighting, going to his closet. He grabbed three more pillows out, throwing one to Ashido who caught it and decking Bakugou with one, making the blonde stand up, grabbing it and slamming it in Kaminari’s face.

Ashido laughed and stood up, trying to hit Kaminari with it. The yellow haired boy ducked and the pink girl ended up hitting Bakugou in the face with her pillow. Kirishima paused in his fight with Sero and let out a low “oooh.”

Bakugou growled and threw his pillow at Ashid, nailing her in the face. She just laughed as she sunk to the floor, rubbing her cheeks. Kirishima crawled over on the bed so he now sat on the edge, ready to stand up, but Sero hit him with his pillow from behind and knocked him off the bed.

Kirishima rubbed his head from the floor and everyone else paused, looking at the red head. “Shit, sorry.” Sero said and Kirishima grinned widely, throwing his pillow in his face. “It’s all good.” he muttered. Ashido stood up, cleaning up thek, small mess they made. “Maybe we should stop, before someone dies.” she claimed and Sero nodded.

“Uh, yeah, I agree.” he said and the five of them calmed down once more, turning off their game and switching to watching a movie. “What do you losers wanna watch?” Kaminari said and Bakugou scowled at the ‘losers’ part.

“The Crimson Riot movie!” Kirishima suggested and the four of them all groaned in unison. “Bro, you always wanna watch that. You probably have all the words memorized by now.” Kaminari said and Kirishima shrugged. “Spirited Away?” Ashido suggested. Sero shook his head. “No, we watched that last time. I wanna watch a new thing.” he claimed.

The four of them continued arguing for a few minutes over which movie to watch until Bakugou pitched in. “How about ‘Maleficent’?” he suggested and they all turned to him. The blonde shrugged. “What? It’s got your fucking princesses.” h gestured to Ashido. “Got your fucking love story.” he gestured to Sero. “and you fucking action.” he gestured at both Kaminari and Kirishima. “So why not?’’

The four of them all exchanged looks than looked at Bakugou. “That’s a good idea, put on Maleficent!” Ashido said. Everyone nodded and Kirishima pulled Bakugou up to the couch so they all sit comfortably. After Kaminari set everything up, he sat in between Kirishima and Sero. Sero wrapped his arms around Kaminari and Ashido wrapped a blanket around all of them, resting her head against Sero.

Kirishima smiled at his friends and leaned against Kaminari, who hummed as the movie started playing. Bakugou growled at their affection, but leaned against Kirishima, making the redhead smile.

After the movie was finished and the credits rolled, Kirishima looked at all his friends. Ashido was asleep on Sero, who was also passed out. Kaminari was running his hands through the raven’s hair, smiling at the boy and Kirishima smiled at their softness. The red head turned his attention to the blonde asleep against him.

Kirishima smiled at Bakugou, who for once didn't have a permanent scowl on his face, a small smile in place and he was breathing slowly. Kirishima smiled at him and he moved his hand, resting it around Bakugou’s shoulder. The sleeping boy didn't move so Kirishima figured it was safe to move again.

Kirishima moved his hand so it rubbed against Bakugou’s cheek soothingly and calmingly. Bakugou shifted in his sleep and Kirishima froze until Bakugou pressed against Kirishima’s hand. The red head could feel his face flush and Kaminari noticed, snorting at him gently as he sunk into Sero’s embrace.

Kirishima rolled his eyes and looked back at bakugou, who was snoring slightly and rubbing his face against Kirishima’s hand. Kirishima smiled gently and pulled Bakugou closer to him before falling asleep too.

Now, in the morning the five of them would wake up, Sero being the first and kissing Kaminari awake. Bakugou would wake up right before Kaminari, yelling at Sero for being gross then blushing about the position he would wake up in, Kirishima hugging him around the waist and Bakugou’s head resting on his chest.

Sero and Kaminari would laugh at the blonde, waking Ashido up, who would laugh right along. Bakugou will scramble out of Kirishima’s arms to make them stop, making Kirishima wake up, confused as to why they were laughing.

Bakugou would yell at them, stomping out of the room, only for Kirishima to run after, asking him what’s wrong. Bakugou would yell at him, face red with embarrassment and anger, before pulling the other boy into a quick kiss. Kirishima would laugh and hug him, and call him ‘cute’, making the blonde get more mad before Kirishima kisses him back.

And their friends would be down the hall, laughing at their two idiot friends before running off, smiling and giggling.

But that was yet to happen. For now, they laid on Kaminari’s bed, tangled up with each other and sleeping peacefully. Like they always do.
