I don't know why they all chose me. I'm taunted by the press every day and they can't seem to understand what kind of a toll it takes on me
"See the news yet freckles?" Bakugo asked as me and Lou walk into his office to hang out "Katsuki" Lou hisses through gritted teeth
"Huh?" I question "What could they possibly have said this time?" I sigh as I sit down in one of his lounge chairs
"Read it for yourself" he says while texting me a link to an article
Red Riots not so hot fiancée
We've gotten in popular vote that majority of Red Riot fans don't trust the pro hero's new fiancée. Fans expressed their concerns and input in this poll
86% of his fans have said they don't think she's good enough to be engaged to the Red Riot
While a select few could care less
Fans have reached out and expressed concerns about her. Ranging from her weight to the way she presents herself on the internet with bikini photos of her and Red Riot on vacation
"Just asking to be objectified" one fan told us
Fans have expressed concern of her being pregnant as well. They've noticed she's gaining quite a bit of weight
So is Red Riot feeding her well? Or do they have a little one on the way before the wedding?
"I saw her wedding dress on a livestream and all I really could think about was the fact that there is no way she's gonna squeeze into that dress" another fan has told up
"Why?" Was all I could ask as I close out of the link. "Beats me" Bakugo shrugs "You're just an easy target for the paparazzi I guess" he casually says before being pinched on the arm by his wife
"Bakugo stop" Lou hisses
At the end of the day it only got worse. Me being a dumbass decided to repeatedly check that post for comments. As if the article wasn't bad the comments were even worse
It tore me up inside
"You're free to go... well you've been free to go for 15 minutes now" Fatgum says while poking his head into my office
"Oh sorry sir" I say grabbing my stuff and putting it in my backpack. "Everything alright?" He asks and I freeze.
Tears form in my eyes as a harshly bite my cheek in order to not cry. The last thing I wanna do is cry in front of my boss. Even if he is like a father to me I would still never do it.
"Yeah I'm good" I say as I grab my backpack and hoodie. As I walk out of my office I hear from behind me "I saw that article" and I freeze in place for the second time
"You did?" I turn around
"Yes, it wasn't cool at all. I'm working to get it taken down so don't you worry your pretty little head ok?"
"Yes sir" I smile and walk to leave
When I'm in the car I turn on the talk radio station to just listen to some gossip. Hopefully it'll get my mind off of things
As I drive down the road I listen and laugh at the cheesy jokes they make until I hear something I don't wanna hear...
"Well I don't know if that could get any more disastrous" the one man laughs
"Well speaking of disasters, have you read that new article about Red Riots fiancée, Sponge?" The lady asks her coworker
"Yes I did! And ya know it's not like they just took a low blow... the things they said were actually true"
"That's what I'm saying! So folks if you haven't read the article yet you can find it on our website at-"
I quickly flip the switch on the radio to turn it off. The last thing I want is to cry and make my eyes blurry to where I can't see the road
When I finally pull into my driveway I notice Eijirou isn't home yet which is a relief. I can cry in peace without being bombarded with random questions
And I do just that
When I walk into the bedroom the first thing I do is flop on the bed and sob
I don't know how long I'd been crying for. But next thing I know I hear a familiar voice
"Babes?" He puts his stuff down and sits on the bed. I'm picked up and cradled into his arms as he kisses my head "What happened boo?"
"I-..I know y-you saw that article" I cry and breathe at the same time
"I did... and you know what? They couldn't be more wrong" he reassures me
