Katsuki woke up first, rubbing his eyes and noticing it was 5 in the morning. It was a Saturday though, so he didn't care. He looked down at the sleeping Ochako, her head on his chest, and smiled. He out his hand on her head.

Suddenly she started gripping his shirt harder than she was before. He looked down at her with a puzzled look and saw she had a scared expression. He was a bit worried, and hugged her gently, trying not to wake her up. She did though. When she realized Katsuki was hugging her, she hugged back and closed her eyes, not caring if he heard her shaky voice.

"What happened?" He asked her.

"I had a nightmare." She quietly replied, still hugging him.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" He rested his head on hers.

She shook her head.

"Can we just stay like this? Please?" She asked.

"Sure" He answered.

And they did. For 2 hours, they laid there, hugging eachother.

Eventually Katsuki brought up the fact that he should probably make food for the two, she was probably hungry. Despite her pouty face, he could tell she was. He laughed, got up, and walked to the kitchen.

After making bacon and eggs, he put two plates on the table and saw Ochako walk into the kitchen, sit down, and stare at her plate.

"Hey, dipshit. You good?" He asked the tired brunette.

"Mhm" She hummed in response.

He looked her up and down. She was wearing a light pink sweater and some white open-legged pants, her hair messy. You could tell she didn't put any kind of makeup on, but he didn't voice that.

"You don't look good. Something bothering you?" He said.

"It doesn't matter" She mumbled, picking up her fork and eating a piece of bacon.

Katsuki noted that her movements seemed like they had less effort put into them. She was usually so happy and energetic, something had to have happened.

"Really though, what happened? Did you see something shitty on instagram or something?" He asked her.

She glared at him, but answered with an annoyed "Yes."

"What was it?" He was starting to get curious.

"Nothing" She picked at her eggs.

Now, Katsuki knew that when a woman says 'Nothing', it is never nothing, and when she starts acting weird, thats when you should back off. He learnt that from his Mother. But he was curious. And besides, Ochako was nothing like his mother. Maybe it would be different?

"Yeah, but... what was it" He asked nervously.

Ochako looked up at him.

"I hate you" She sighed. "I saw Deku, Todoroki, Iida, and Tsu hanging out without me"

Katsuki was a bit confused, but pretended to understand.

"When?" He asked.

"Yesterday. I saw Iida post a picture of them all at a coffee shop." She continued picking at her food.

Now Katsuki understood. It happened to him, he was fine with it, but he understood that Ochako would definitely care. That made him angry at Ochako's friends.

"Those little shits. Hey, ignore it. They don't deserve you. They don't appreciate you enough." He growled.

Ochako looked up and smiled at him. That's the first time in a while that somebody has said something like that.
