Chapter 1
Bakugou didn't think the songs he wrote were all that special. Most of it was just how he felt. So, it was a lot of angry metal type music. However, when the band 'Start A Riot!', reached out to him through their manager, he freaked a little. All he had done was sung a couple of his songs and uploaded it to YouTube. Apparently, Earphone Jack had found the videos and showed the others.
The email from Yaoyorozu Momo in his inbox made him jump. It explained that they wanted him to write for them. They even offered him a spot in the band. He would get to meet all the members. How when they were recording his songs he would have to come and correct certain details.
He wrote back, 'Sadly, I cannot take the offered spot in the band. I am honored and accept the request to use my music.' Pushing the part of the frame of his glasses that sat on his nose up, he wrote some questions as well! Just asking about details and when they would start, things like that.
'They want to start on Friday afternoon?' Bakugou thought to himself. It was Tuesday night. 'I have to tell mom and dad!' He made his way to the living room, assuming they were still watching tv. Yes, they were.
"Mom, dad, I've got something to tell you." Bakugou spoke softly as he sat down. Yet again, he found himself pushing his glasses up. 'These really are too big.' He thought. Both his parents turned their attention towards him. He had their full and undivided attention. He explained everything. Some how they agreed to let him go when he needed to. They promised not to tell anyone.
From there, Bakugou worked on his schoolwork and got his best songs together. He ended up writing a new song as well.
Finally, the day came. He and Momo had talked a bit more. They decided they would work together all weekend. They had a place for Bakugou to stay and would provide him with food and such.
Bakugou exited the building looking for a moment and locked eyes with a tired looking guy. He was standing next to a silver SUV. The sunlight bounced off it and into the blonde's eyes, making him squint more than he normally would. The light went right through the lenses of his glasses even though they were supposed to block the sun somewhat. 'Liars.' He cursed the company in his head.
He shook his head and the teen began walking over. Before he could say anything, the man beat him to it.
In a tired and annoyed voice he said, "I'm Aizawa, Momo requested I come pick you up. I assume you're Bakugou?"
"Yeah, that's me." The blonde forced anger and annoyance into his tone like he usually did. They get into the car and Aizawa begins driving.
Bakugou, feeling drowsy, knew school took a lot out of him. It always did. The amount of social interaction was emotionally draining for him. On top of that, it had been getting colder so Bakugou had worn his favorite hoodie. It was 'Start A Riot!' merch, sure, but it was comfortable. Like someone was giving you a hug, the material was a heavier one. It was also way too big on Bakugou's frame. That's not to say he was fragile or weak in any way. The blonde was quite muscular but more of a lean muscle than a bulk. So, his frame was smaller than some muscular guys. He pulled the hood up and snuggled into the soft material. Once again, his glasses slid down but he didn't move to fix them.
Next thing Bakugou knew, he was being set down on a soft couch by strong arms. "Hnn?" He grunted. He heard a deep and soothing chuckle from above him. He opened his eyes and righted his glasses once more. There, in front of him was Red, the lead singer of Start A Riot! Having THE Red a foot away from his face caused all the blood to rush to his face. The room filled with laughs.
"Nervous?" Red asked in a teasing tone. "Also, nice hoodie." Bakugou looked at his hoodie. It just happened that he was wearing his Red version of the hoodie. Each member had designed a hoodie based upon their alias. His face got hotter. Red laughed once more and ruffled Bakugou's hair before sitting down.
'The Red is sitting next to me.' He screamed mentally. Suddenly, his legs were being picked up. Red had just picked his legs up and put them in his lap. He was making little circles with his thumb when he spoke again.
"Oh, by the way, since we know your name, we thought you should know ours!" He exclaimed. "I'll go ahead! I go by Red on stage but my name is Kirishima Eijirou." Red- no Kirishima, beamed.
"I'm Alien Queen but my name is Ashido Mina." The keyboardest said.
"On stage I'm Chargebolt but my name is Kaminari Denki!" The electric guitarists exclaimed.
"I'm Earphone Jack to the public but my name is Jirou Kyouka." The base guitarist said.
"Cellophane but my name is Sero Hanta." The drummer said. They gave Bakugou a moment to take it all in. The blonde hid in his hoodie more. The band members looked at him as he hid more.
'He kinda reminds me of a turtle!' Kirishima thinks.
Momo slipped into the room. She noticed how overwhelmed and tense the boy looked. "Hey, I'm Momo. I'm sorry if this is a bit overwhelming." As she spoke any negative feelings seemed to fade away.
Bakugou stayed in his hoodie. "Eh, it's okay." He mumbled. Kirishima looked at him with soft eyes and gave his calf a comforting squeeze. After that, they began going through recording and such.
