Bakugo: clenching fists Dammit, this is harder than a damn battle! I need to ask you something important.
paces back and forth, then stops abruptly Look, I'm not exactly the smoothest guy around, but I've been thinking...
takes a deep breath About us, idiot! I've been doing some stupid shit, trying to get your attention, and it's driving me insane!
I know, just because I didn't respond doesn't mean I'm not interested.
rolls his eyes, frustrated Shut up, I'm not used to this kind of shit! I need to know if you're serious about me too!
Of course I am, I'm just waiting for you to make the first move.
runs a hand through his spiky hair, exasperated Dammit, don't you get it? I'm not good with this mushy shit!
she pulls him in and kisses him
hesitates for a moment, then wraps his arms around LuminousRavine, deepening the kiss Maybe this will make things clearer...
pulls away from the kiss, wiping his mouth Alright, enough stalling. I've got something to say, and I'm not backing down this time.
takes a deep breath, looking directly into LuminousRavine's eyes Look, I've been an idiot for too long, playing these stupid games.
grabs LuminousRavine's hand, intertwining their fingers I love you, you idiot!
pauses, then speaks softly There's something else... I've been keeping a secret from you.
takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact I... I have a Quirk. And it's... it's dangerous.
clenches his fists, his voice trembling It's not just the Quirk itself, it's the control.
What do you mean by that?
takes a step closer to LuminousRavine, his eyes filled with determination I mean, I can master it, but it takes a toll on my body.
grits his teeth, clenching his fists Every time I use it, it hurts like hell. It's like my own body is betraying me.
grabs LuminousRavine's hand, pressing it against his chest It's not just the physical pain, idiot!
pulls LuminousRavine into a tight embrace, burying his face in their hair I'm scared, alright? Scared of losing you, scared of hurting you...
tightens his grip on LuminousRavine, his voice filled with vulnerability I've never let anyone in like this before, but with you...
takes a step back, his expression hardening You don't understand. I've seen what happens when people get close to me. They get hurt.
takes a deep breath, looking LuminousRavine in the eyes I know you're different. That's why I need you to promise me one thing.
grabs LuminousRavine's shoulders, his voice firm Promise me that no matter what happens, you'll stay by my side.
takes a step back, his expression softening Thank you... for believing in me. I won't let you down.
squeezes LuminousRavine's hands tightly We're in this together now. No more secrets, no more running away.
pulls LuminousRavine into a passionate kiss, their bodies pressed tightly together I love you, idiot. And I'm going to prove it to you every day.
