《Pandora's Gift》Chapter 19

Author note: if you wanna read some of last chapter and this chapter from a slightly different perspective check out my other story. Let's Have a Riot were you will follow Kirishima and Sasara's little love story.
Sakaki had left her best friend and her son in the lobby as she followed the guys through the agency before parting ways to each head into a different locker room. It was a bit annoying that she couldn't have a shower after sweating and being covered in acidic slime. Oh well all she had to do was wait till she got home then she could shower and change the dressing on her arm.
So with stripping off yet another destroyed uniform she tossed it in the trash in the locker room before getting dressed in her skinny and a simple t-shirt before she returned to her poor friend who was looking a little lost among the hero agency. After all, Sasara had no real ties to the hero industry aside from knowing Sakaki.
Though it really didn't take the two men long before they were also joining the two women. It seemed they must have rushed their showers but with both sporting damp hair it was oblivious. Especially since Kirishima's hair was no longer in its iconic spiked look but instead hung down around his face and neck.
Unknown to the two women right before strolling out of the locker room Kirishima had made the comment that Bakugou and himself took the two girls on a double date. to which Bakugou had blown up about. Of course the blonde was telling Kirishima he was a moron. So of course as Kirishima nearly ran out of the locker room he informed Bakugou that he wasn't being as sneaky as he thought he was. Of course that had the blonde snarling and running after his friend though the sight of the two women in the lobby meant Bakugou wouldn't yell at Kirishima as he did not want Sakaki to hear what had been discussed. Kirishima, knowing he won for the time being couldn't help but laugh which just had Bakugou glaring and snarling at him more.
"Are you two lovely ladies ready to go?" Kirishima asked as he approached the two flashing them both a wide toothy grin. Which had one woman blush while the other gave him a soft smile.
"Yep! So where are we going?" Sakaki asked as she looked between the two men as Bakugou angrily stuffed his hands into his pockets.
"Not a clue. Doesn't matter to me as long as it's somewhere with a big enough table for everyone," Kirishima said smiling widely as he answered the dark haired woman's question. Well then Sakaki had a good idea of where to go. The food was a bit pricey but sooo good. And it didn't require taking a train as it was easily within walking distance.
"Well I know a place a few blocks away that has sushi to die for," Sakaki said, more than happy to start leading the way out of the agency. Which had Bakugou quickly trotting after her yelling at her to stop walking ahead of him. She could hear Sasara laugh lightly at the blonde's antics which only made Sakaki smirk as she looked over at the blonde as he caught up to her as she started down the street.
"You don't even know where the hell we are going. So of course I'm gonna walk ahead of you. I'm leading and you will follow," she said smirking as she told Bakugou she was going to lead and he was going to follow her. Of course the blonde being the stubborn man he was still refused to back down.

"So I'll just take us to a restaurant I know. I bet it would be better than whatever shit hole you would lead us to," Bakugou growled back at her as his hands were shoved into his pants pockets.
"Ha yeah right. I'm leading the way to a really great restaurant. Maybe you just can't taste good food with having burnt your fucking tastebuds off," oh she was really starting something now that she would probably loose. Because she really couldn't deny Bakugou's cooking was incredibly delicious even if it was spicier than she usually liked her food.
"Oh that's big coming from someone who has been eating my cooking for lunch the last two days," he growled at her. Though his ears instantly went red along with a light blush over his nose. Did he just admit to cooking the two bentos she had eaten the last two days? Sure the first was Kirishima's but still the one he gave her today for lunch he had made for her, right? That's what he just admitted wasn't it?
"Well of course I am not a person to turn down free food," she said with a shrug of her shoulders as a wide smirk pulled at her lips as she looked over at the blonde walking beside her.
Unbeknown to either of them the two friends walking behind them were completely watching the two flirting back and forth. So much so that Sasara had even asked if the two were always like that and when pointed out that the two seemed oblivious to the flirty and how obvious they were.
Though maybe it was hearing his name called after the embarrassment of being found out for making Sakaki's lunch that drew Bakugou's attention to the two extras walking behind him. Or maybe it was simply the need to change the subject and draw attention away from him that had him look back over his shoulder at Kirishima's and Naito.
"Oi! What the hell are you two talking about?" Was the booming voice that Bakugou usually always seemed to use.
"Nothing Bakubro," Kirishima called out calmly to his feisty blonde friend who was glaring over his shoulder at the red head. Sakaki had to resist the urge to laugh as she watched the two men knowing that if Bakugou heard her he would surely try to blow her ass up.
Bakugou, seeming less than impressed but not willing to push more, simply scoffed at his tall red headed friend who was walking a good few steps behind him. Still the scuff for the point across that he was sure Kirishima had said something about him. But at least Bakugou had matured enough to not just start throwing a fit like an immature child.
Now it was Sakaki's turn to look over her shoulder and smile seeing the way her friend was walking beside the large man with her young son in hand. They looked so cute and adorable, Hmm it made Sakaki want to start playing a little match maker with how her friend was acting. After all Sasara has been single for as long as they had known each other. Someone like Kirishima would be perfect for her small and shy friend. He was an alpha who struck her as someone who would truly care for an omega and not be abusive. And that was exactly what Sasara needed after what she had been through.
At some point Hatori had caused Sasara to pause in her walking as he tried to pull his mother towards a toy shop, or something with a toy in the window that had grabbed the kids attention. Kirishima the gentleman he was stopped and waited for her to grab her kids attention and start walking again after her friends.

Yep all the more proof to Sakaki that the two of them would make such an adorable couple. And with the way Kirishima had handled Hatori during the last week it was obvious the man was great with kids too. Was there anything the red head couldn't do? Well he had been single for as long as she was aware, that question of why still lingered in her mind. Maybe he was just fussy and waiting for the right person? Well maybe he found her finally. Well now Sakaki really wanted to play matchmaker with her two friends.
It seemed she may not have been the only one with the same thought as she started to smirk at the ideas that filled her mind as she noticed Bakugou doing the same thing as they watched their friends. Sakaki and Bakugou had reached the restaurant first and were standing there watching Kirishima and Sasara make googoo eyes at each other only to both blush and look away. Had she not been close enough to hear she would have burst out laughing as she watched the two of them.
"Alright you two. Let's go and get a seat. I'm starving," Sakaki said flashing the two adults a wide shot eating grin before she turned around and nearly ran into the restaurant leaving her friends to quickly follow after her.
Surprisingly Bakugou didn't complain as he followed the dark haired woman into a restaurant he had been to a few times. It was rather decent food, sure it wasn't a five star restaurant but still it wasn't some cheap place either so that seemed to make him happy enough to not cause a scene in front of the other people trying to enjoy their meals.
Though poor Sasara felt a little out of place as she watched the waiter eagerly welcome the two well known pro hero's. And of course eyes were quick to glance at the group. Even Sakaki was well aware that the group was drawing a lot of attention. Ah she could already hear the headlines now. Two omega whores caught dining with chart climbing pro hero's Dynamite and Red Riot. Maybe Sakaki had picked the wrong place to go to eat.
"Oi! What the hell are you all looking," of course Bakugou noticed the judgmental gazes and was quick to snap at them.
"Don't bother Bakugou," Sakaki said, placing a hand on his shoulder. Surprisingly that actually seemed to reel the man back and had him slowly exhale instead of yelling again as he gave a huff and followed the waiter till they reached their table. Her hand had not lingered long as she stepped ahead of him and continued till she picked her spot at the round table. With Bakugou on one said Hatori's on her other said then Sasara with Kirishima beside her.
Sakaki watched her friend glance around before dropping her gaze. The poor silver haired woman was not in any way prepared for the attention they were getting. Her and Sakaki never got this attention when they went out. That was one of the perks of working as an underground hero. She didn't want the attention that came with climbing the charts and being well known. With fame came fans. And all that attention was impossible to get away with. That was clear right now as the table seemed to grab the attention of everyone in ear and eyeshot. Hell Sakaki was pretty sure the wait staff was playing Rock Paper Scissors to see who would be working this table.
"Don't let the attention get to you Sasara," Sakaki said flashing the woman a simple smile trying to help sooth her friend. Sakaki though herself wasn't much better. But instead of feeling shy she felt anxious. The attention meant she couldn't sneak around. She was used to being invisible, and this was not invisible.
"I'll try Shun," she said softly, happy to see her friend remaining calm.
"Sorry about this," Kirishima said, apologizing when he realized the poor woman was uncomfortable.
"What the hell are you apologizing for shitty hair? It's not like we can control this," Bakugou snarled as he sat back in his seat crossing his arms before Sakaki and Kirishima threw glares at him.
"Well we could have given her a heads up. Not all of us are used to the attention or think about it," Sakaki growled softly at the blonde sitting beside her.
"Shun, don't worry about it. He's not exactly wrong. I should have figured that sitting with two top ten hero's would have unwanted attention," Sasara said softly, not wanting anyone to start an argument over her.
"You're too soft Sasara," Sakaki mumbled, unhappy that her friend was putting a stop to any further arguing.
Still the silver haired woman simply laughed at Sakaki's comment as they both knew it was true, but she couldn't help it. She had no desire to fight with her omega side, which meant she was far too happy to be a peacekeeper and try to keep alpha's around her happy.
"So am I going to get to hear the story of how you hurt your arm today?" Sasara asked, looking over at the dark haired woman happy to change the attention from her shy nature and the near arguments that broke out.
"She was a dumb fuck, that's how she did that," was the grumble that came from Bakugou which earned him an elbow to the ribs from the woman sitting beside him accompanied with a glare.
"I wasn't dumb. I did what had to be done. After all you clearly were not having any luck," and so the bickering between Sakaki and Bakugou began even when their young waiter walked over asking them for their drink orders.
When it became clear Sakaki and Bakugou were too busy calling each other names like children, Sasara turned her gaze over to the man beside her with a soft arched eyebrow silently questioning him.
"I'm sure you'll see it in the news later. I encountered a villian on my patrol. I called in Sakaki and Bakugou for backup. He had an acidic slime like quirk. Sakaki decided the best way to get him out of the protective slime was to stick her own arm in and activate her quirk. It worked but the acid burned her," Kirishima leaned over a little to whisper to the woman as he was sure keeping it a secret would surely make her worry more.
Meanwhile, Sakaki had noticed that Kirishima was filling in her friend about the attack. She lifted the injured arm giving it a soft wave even though it sent a sharp pain through her body she ignored it refusing to let her friends worry.
"It's not like there was much choice. Bakugou's explosions couldn't even get through all of the slime. And your quirk didn't match well either. Turning his own slime against him was the best thing but I couldn't trust that letting my quick out in the air would be enough," the woman felt the need to add more reasoning behind her decision.
"It was still a stupid idea," Bakugou growled which just had her curl her top lip at him not enjoying being called names over her idea.
"So Sasara, how long have you known Sakaki?" Kirishima asked loudly, ensuring that Sakaki would hear and hopefully it would stop another argument.
"Oh Uhm, almost seven years," the silver haired woman answered, looking over at the red head.
"How did you two meet?" That was a question that Sakaki wished would not have been brought up. Not for herself but because she feared for how it may upset Sasara. And of course it did seem to bug the poor woman as she started to fidget softly with her fingers.
"I arrested her," Sakaki said bluntly, which caught both men's attention.
"Shun! Don't say it like that," the poor woman went into a mini panic as she looked at her friend like she had grown a second head.
"Well it's kinda true. When I busted your ex you were there too. And I did mistakenly put you in handcuffs till I realized you were not a villain," Sakaki said with a simple shrug of her shoulders now forcing her poor friend to actually explain the event that led to them meeting and becoming friends. Sakaki felt this was something important for Kirishima to know before he started to chase after the woman. As much as she had a feeling Sasara was going to bitch at her for it later it had to be done.
"My ex was apparently running an underground smuggling ring along with a number of other illegal activities I was unaware of. The hero who busted and arrested him was Shun. While being held in custody by the police Shun was the main hero working with the officers and since we were both omegas they had her deal with questioning me," Sasara explained a little though she left a good deal out still but Sakaki was not going to say anything. It wasn't her place to let a restaurant of eavesdroppers know her best friend was in an abusive relationship with a villian who not long before the bust found out she was pregnant. But it gave Kirishima the knowledge that the young woman had a big of baggage that went beyond just a kid at her hip.
"When she was released she had no were to go and she was pregnant. I couldn't let her just sleep on the streets so she stayed with me for; what's was it two weeks?" Sakaki asked, glancing at the woman to see if she got the timeline right.
"Yeah it was like fifteen days or something before I found the place I'm in now," Sasara said quietly with a little nod of her head.
Luckily for Sasara their food arrived at the perfect moment to quickly distract the men from being able to ask more questions. No one knew the silver haired woman was incredibly thankful that the food arrived at that exact moment. And so Sasara was happy to start eating her own meal as she enjoyed an expensive meal she didn't get often. Though Sakaki always tried to take the silver haired woman to nice restaurants when they went out. But what little pride she did have made it hard for Sasara to not pay for her own meals, or at least try to pay for every second meal. But Sakaki was stubborn and knew she made more as a hero and she enjoyed being allowed to spoil her best friend.
Sakaki was happily enjoying her own meal as she ordered an array of sushi's. It wasn't something she ate often. Though of course the meal did not remain silent for long as Sakaki watched in utter disbelief at the amount of wasabi Bakugou added to his food.
"And you call yourself a man of culture with food. Yet you're destroying the natural flavour of your food with that much wasabi," the dark haired woman said with an over dramatic gasp.
"Hell no. I'm making it better," Bakugou growled back at the woman before he stuffed his face with the food as hot as he could get it. At least Kirishima and Sasara didn't have to worry about the meal being boring as they ate and watched their friends flirt back and forth during the meal.
