Work Text:
It was a quiet day in the Yuuei dorms, as the rain continued to pour down outside. A majority of the students went inside their respective rooms to study for their upcoming exams. Depending on how well they did on their written tests, Aizawa was going to take them out for ice cream: one scoop,with cups under every cone so nothing would spill. Since Aizawa didn’t have the brightest imagination when it came to incentives, he supposed this one would be just fine.
Everyone was determined not to let this satisfyingly sweet opportunity slip out of their hands.
...Except for Mina Ashido and Kaminari Denki.
The two sat in the main corridor of the dorms, surrounded by comfy, black, leather couches and a flatscreen TV, that was incredibly tempting to turn on.
“My God…” Denki groaned, letting his body slump into the couch. “At the rate we’re studying, we’re both gonna fail..”
“I-It’s okay! We can still think of something!” Ashido exclaimed, raising her hands above her horns. “Man...why didn’t you ask Momo for help like last time?” She pouts.
“She had errands to run!” Kaminari responded.
Ashido turned her head, as a loud cackle of thunder echoed across the room. Her eyebrows furrowed at his ‘excuse’. “In this weather?”
Kaminari cross his arms as his eyebrows scrunched right next to his eyes, performing the ‘Stink eye’.“S-She could have plans and I respect that!”
“Man…” Suddenly, Ashido could hear a loud roar come from her stomach. “Great, I can’t even study on an empty stomach too.” She groaned.
“Is there any food in the fridge?” Kaminari asked.
“Nope, I already checked..” Ashido responded quickly.
Kaminari sighed. “Well, I guess I can call something in if you want?”
Ashido nodded, sighing softly. “That’d be great!”
From the corner of his eye, Kaminari spotted Kirishima and Sero, as the two of them dragged their towels across their shoulders. He spots the two and waves, approaching them slowly.
“Kirishima! Sero!” Kaminari called out. “Just in time..Do you want anything? I was going to call up takeout so Ashido and I can eat something.”
Kirishima stroked his chin as he thought about the possibilities. Well, it would be rude to say no..
“What do you guys have in mind?” He asked.
Ashido shrugged. “pizza?”
Sero grinned at the suggestion, patting his stomach softly. “Sounds good to me!” He beamed.
“Okay, should we order one for Bakugou as well?” Ashido questioned.
“Nah,” Kaminari said. “He's probably out getting groceries for all of us anyways.”
“I hope he's okay..” Kirishima said. “It’s pretty bad outside…”
“Trust me, he's fine.” Kaminari reassured, placing his hand on the redhead’s shoulder.
“Wait wait wait, guys hold on!!” Ashido yelled. “Check this out..We should order...a boneless pizza!”
Kirishima crossed his arms at the suggestion. “What the hell..?”
Ashido’s finger flicked up and down on her phone as she showed the group. “Apparently it’s a prank call that a ton of people are doing!”
“That’s stupid..” Sero mumbled. “What’s it about?”
“Apparently, the caller accuses a pizza place of having a pizza with bones in it, but in reality they don’t. It gets pretty heated, and it’s really funny!” Ashido explained.
“You’re saying...we should do that prank?” Sero asked.
Ashido winked at the response. “You got it!”
“Alright, alright, I dig it..” Kaminari nodded. “One problem though: who’s going to make the call?”
Suddenly, the atmosphere inside of the commons became more dense, as the group looked at each other with uneasy expressions. Everyone knew that they would get in trouble for doing such a mean prank call. However, no one was sure on who would take ‘one for the team’ and get in trouble on entire group’s behalf.
After what felt like an drawn out stare down between the group, Kirishima’s hand slowly shot up. “I-I’ll do it.” He said.
Ashido stood up as she slammed her hands onto the table. “K-Kirishima! A-Are you sure?” She asked.
Kirishima nodded. “You guys will be with me the entire time, right? Plus, we’ll be able to stop it if we go too far..That will prevent us from getting in trouble.”
“Now that you mention it…” Sero chimed in. “Kirishima has a good point..”
“Then it’s settled, right?” Kaminari asked. “Kirishima is making the prank call for boneless pizza?”
The group nodded in unison. Kaminari gulped, as he input one the number of the closest pizza place. He put the phone down on top of the coffee table, and pressed the button to allow the call to be put on speaker.
Ring…
The group slowed pulled their heads closer to the phone.
Ring...boop!
“Hello, this is Shizuoka Pizzeria. Would you like carryout or delivery?” The voice asked. It was kind, gentle and soft, it definitely made the group feel bad about what they were going to do..
“D-Delivery, please.” Kirishima stammered. So far so good..
“Perfect. Just one moment, please.” There was a small click on the receiving end of the call, as a waiting ringtone played in the background. Kirishima let out a small sigh of relief as Ashido began to bite her nails in anticipation.
Another click, this time, as the background music came to an abrupt end. Kaminari’s head jolted up as he covered his cheeks with the palms of his hands.
“Hello...this is delivery. What can I get for you?”
Wait a second..what?
The nice, calming voice was replaced by a low, deep one. The rasp that could be heard was all too familiar to the group.
Was that...Bakugou? The group thought in unison.
“I’m sorry..c-could you say that again?” Kirishima asked. His face immediately turned to see the others, as they were just as shocked as he was.
There was a long sigh on the other end of the call. “What can I get for you today?” His tone seemed more irritated than before.
Yes, this was definitely Bakugou.
Huge grins soon formed on Kaminari and Sero’s face. Ashido pulled up her Memo and typed away furiously. She showed the group her message afterwards:
HE’S A PIZZA BOY!? HOW THE HELL DID BAKUGOU NOT TELL US ABOUT THIS!?
Kaminari covered his mouth as he tried his hardest not to laugh. Sero shrugged as he nudged Kirishima, gesturing to continue the prank.
Kirishima nodded, pulling the phone closer to the group.
“Yeah,” He began. “Lemme get uh…” He then pulled the phone as close to his mouth as possible. “ Boneless pizza with a 2 liter of Cola.”
Ashido got of the couch, as she paced around the commons, hands placed on her head.
Holy shit. She thought. I can’t believe this is actually happening.
There was a minute of silence after Kirishima’s request. Kirishima placed the phone back down onto the coffee table, praying that his companion didn’t hang up on him.
“The fuck kinda pizza?” Bakugou asked. “Also, we don’t have a two liter machine on us, but we do have a one liter machine though.”
Kaminari’s knees dropped to the floor, as he held his stomach, inching away from the phone so Bakugou wouldn’t hear his laughs.
“That’s fine, that’s fine!” Kirishima reassured. “Just make sure that I get that pizza... Boneless .”
“...Pizza doesn’t have any bones on it.” Bakugou snapped.
“What the hell did I just say then?” Kirishima questioned.
Bakugou let out another long sigh. “You said..” He responded. “ ‘Just make sure I get that pizza Boneless ’, as if pizza actually has bones as a topping.”
“And I’m saying you guys have bones in your shit!” Kirishima answered.
“We. Don’t.” Bakugou confronted.
“So?” Kirishima retaliated. “What’s the problem?”
“ DICKHEAD. ” Bakugou growled. “Tell me one pizza that we have that has bones on it.”
Sero got off the couch, as tears rolled down from his eyes from laughing too hard.
“Just don’t put any bones on my pizza, how many times to I have to say it?” Kirishima asked. His face felt incredibly hot as it’s shade grew as bright as his hair.
“Sir, just explain to me how the fuck can a pizza be boneless?”
“If it doesn’t have any bones on it...It’s BONELESS .”
“What kind of school do you go to? Obviously you have no idea what a pizza is.”
“D-Dude, I don’t understand the problem.” Kirishima responded, letting out a chuckle. “J-Just make my pizza boneless .”
For good measure, he pulled the phone up to his mouth one last time. “ Deadass .”
“I’m deadass not making this pizza either.” Bakugou muttered.
Click.
The called had ended, as Kirishima erupted in a fit of laughter. His head rested on the sofa cushion as Kaminari grabbed his phone.
“Dude. Holy. Shit..” Kaminari said. “I-I can’t believe we got Bakugou to almost make us a boneless pizza!”
“That was...so stupid..” Ashido responded, as she wiped a tear from her eye.
“Surprisingly enough,” Sero interjected. “Bakugou was actually going along with it..”
“Right!?” Ashido said. “I couldn’t tell if he was serious or not..”
Kirishima shrugged his shoulders. “Well, it doesn’t matter now..” He began. “Who’s up for some actual pizza?”
“Without the bones?” Kaminari joked.
Kirishima grinned at the response. “Hell yeah!”
Later that night..
The doors of Yuuei Housing opened with a thud as Bakugou stormed into the building. Shitty day, and even shittier customers.
Who the hell would even order a ‘boneless pizza’ anyways? He thought.
He traveled up to the commons of the dorms, taking the quickest route to the fridge. He swung the handle open, as he looked at any of the food that was available.
What covered the most room was two big cardboard boxes a liter of Cola.
Wait a second..that’s the same order as..
His head raised slowly as he saw Ashido, Sero, Kaminari, and Kirishima on the couch. Their eyes glowed as a movie illuminated on the screen. One by one, they all took a sip of cola from their cups as they shoved pizza in their mouths.
“You son of a-” Bakugou growled.
Kaminari perked up. “Hey Baku-OH SH I T-”
The yellow haired boy jumped from his seat as he sprinted out of the commons as quickly as possible. The rest followed suit, as they ran up the stairs as if their lives depended on it.
Bakugou caught up with the group with ease, as he cornered all of them into a hallway.
“You bastards..” Bakugou growled, as miniature explosions formed in his hands. “You thought it was funny to order ‘boneless pizza’, huh?”
No response. Ashido held onto Sero’s arm as the group gulped in unison.
“I’m not in the mood for causing shit, okay?” Bakugou huffed as he turned away. “Don’t ever do this shit again or you’re all dead! You hear me!?”
“Y-Yes sir..” The group responded.
“Good, now fuck off!” He snapped, mumbling curses as he left.
“He...didn’t hurt us?” Kaminari asked.
“Maybe he knew we only did it for a joke..” Sero responded.
“Either way, I’m not ever doing that again.” Ashido huffed.
“You’re the one who suggested it, Ashido.” Kirishima said.
“S-Shut up!”
The group erupted in laughter as Ashido pouted. Kirishima’s smile on his face grew wider as he watched Bakugou leave the hallways.
Maybe he’s not as bad as people make him out to be, he thought.
