From the Shadows || Katsuki Bakugou x OC

Chapter Eighty-three

My phone alarm went off, letting me know it's three fifteen and I should leave shortly. I turned it off and put a hoodie on.

I'm insanely nervous, but they deserve to know what's up with Kiri. Touya is driving Himiko and I to the hospital today, I've been so used to driving with mom and dad recently, that I forgot his music taste is so different from theirs.

The drive was full of chatter, as Touya hasn't been home a lot recently.

"Everything go well at therapy?" Himiko asked.

Touya laughed, "Just peachy, I had to take a vow to never even look at fire again."

"I guess that means you can't cook for yourself." I said plainly, "Nobody's gonna want to marry you if you're that needy."

He shrugged his shoulders, "I guess I'll use my big brother privileges and make you two cook for me." After laughing he continued, "But in all seriousness, it was the same as always. 'Have you had any thoughts of violence', 'have you had any angry outbursts recently', 'any contact with any villlains'. Boring shit. But if it means I can have a semi-normal life I don't mind too much."

"Yeah my therapist asks the same things." Himiko said. "She also asks if I have any cravings for blood. Which is ridiculous at this point because I haven't since we got rid of my quirk."

"I still can't believe it took us that long to figure out where Shigaraki got that from." I shivered, "Shigaraki was bad but Overhaul was a completely different type of bad. I'm glad we could save Eri, she's such a sweet girl."

Himiko sighed, "It broke my heart hearing what happened to her." She chuckled, "Honestly I'm surprised she got so attached to me."

We continued talking about how Eri's doing, Touya's business, various other trivial topics. In the middle of talking my felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. It's the class group chat.

⚡️Pikachu⚡️:  just got to Kacchan's room

💥My Blasty Boi💥: I didn't expect him to be the first one here and now he's trying to get me to play tic tac toe.

💥My Blasty Boi💥: Send help.

🔪Edgar Allen Crow🔪: I'm in the elevator to your floor now. I'm with Mezo, Rikido, and Yuga.

💥My Blasty Boi💥:  Thank god.

⚡️Pikachu⚡️: Do you not like me :(

💥My Blasty Boi💥: I. Cannot. Move. My. Arms. Enough. To. Play. I can barely even type right now.

I texted the group chat to let them know I'm just reaching the hospital parking lot, and will be in the room shortly. Himiko and I left the car and thanked Touya for driving us. He told he would just stay in the parking lot until we were done.

We arrived to Katsuki's room, where most of our classmates were already.

"Who all are we still waiting on?" I asked.

"Mr. Aizawa, Hitoshi, Tsu, and Mina aren't here yet." Izuku told me. We only had to wait five minutes before everyone was gathered. Everyone except Momo of course.

I stood by Katsuki's bed so we could tell everyone about Kiri's condition. I took a deep breath and spoke. "I'm glad you all could make it. As you know we have important news to share about Kiri."

Everyone was silent with worried and expectant looks on their faces. Katsuki spoke next, "His parents came to us and asked us to relay it to their rest of the class."

We had agreed beforehand that I would do most of the talking. Mostly since he isn't allowed to stand for long, but also because he didn't think he'd be able to get a full sentence out. But he would try to talk as much as he could.
