Work Text:
Izuku is currently sitting in the dorm living room with his friends. He, Ochako, Tenya, Tsuyu and Shoto watch their weekly airing series. Enjoying their evening like the rest of Class 1-A. Some join them like Mina and Eijirou. Some are scattered around somewhere else in their common area like Denki, Hanta or Kyouka. Chatting, playing board games, reading. Appreciating the free and calm week-end while others spend it alone in their room or outside of their dorm.
"Extras, dinner is ready!", Katsuki screams from the kitchen.
Izuku is one of firsts to follow his command. He loves Katsuki's cooking. Just everything tastes better when your man is the one making it for you.
"What have we got here?", Izuku asks leaning onto the kitchen counter.
"Classic ramen. Made a spicy, but also a not spicy one for the weaklings", he answers grumpily.
"Kacchan, that already smells great", Izuku praises him as Katsuki goes over to him.
"Of course it does, I'm fucking amazing", he responds this time.
Having a small smile on his face as he hugs his boyfriend from behind and leaves a kiss on his cheek. Leading his boyfriend to giggle and blush.
"I know we talked about it, but is it really alright?", the green haired asks slightly worried.
He tenses up a little at the touch. Still thinking about their past bullying and feeling insecure about it.
"You know our friends, they won't mind", he reassures him, "Moreover I can already hear the girls screaming and stuff - it's gonna be annoying as fuck. Asking questions and stuff, we should be ready for our privacy to be invaded."
He snuggles into Izuku's neck from behind to leave a trail of constant kisses on there and his cheek.
"If you feel uncomfortable by my affection out in the open, just tell me, okay? We can go right back to hiding if that's what you want", he whispers softly.
"No", Izuku denies immediately, "I like it, I'm just not used to it, you know? But you're right they probably won't care... but they'll be surprised for sure. You never hug anyone."
"Because I don't love anyone except for you, nerd", Katsuki answers as he slowly lets go of Izuku, "Let me get you a bowl, don't you want to go back to watching your series?"
Katsuki goes over with a slight smirk on his face back to the stove. Getting a bowl and pouring Izuku some ramen. Then getting one for himself, which of course is the spicy one he made.
"Will you ever move? Dunce face? Earphone? Raccoon eyes? Are all extras just gonna stand there looking dumb and shit? The food is getting cold and I ain't warming that up again!", Katsuki says as he goes back over to Izuku, handing him his bowl with silverware and kissing his forehead.
Confused Izuku looks in the direction Katsuki was talking to. Seeing a group of their classmates huddle near the kitchen area but not quite entering. Looking like they have been watching from afar. They seem freezed but start to move as soon as the realise that they are recognized. Looking behind the first row of people consisting of the persons Katsuki already called out, Izuku could see others quickly turning around as if they aren't listening. Such as Eijiro, Shoto, Tsuyu, Hanta or Ochako. Tenya already sped away back to the couch. Only leaving a confused Ochako behind.
"Hi, guys", Izuku greets them.
He is slightly embarrassed knowing that they must have been here ever since Izuku entered the kitchen himself. A slight blush creeping up his cheeks.
"'Hi, guys?' Are you for real?", Mina asks confused.
"I mean- you guys", Denki points to the two men with their ramen bowls, "are a thing? Like you guys are dating?"
"Obviously they are! I already wondered when Kats is asking him out. You finally did it man", Eijirou joins in.
"Yeah, we're dating. Got a problem with that?", Katsuki asks harshly as he puts a hand on Izuku's waist.
Making their classmates even more taken aback.
"Since when?", Kyouka asks seeming to take the rest of them out of their trance as well.
"Must be recently", Ochako whispers not so quietly.
"Actually since middleschool - but", Katsuki interrupts before anyone else can open their mouth, "shut the fuck up and let us eat before fucking bombarding us with your stupid questions, alright? Let Izuku finish that goddamn series at least."
With that their classmates each get their dinner and scatter around their common area once again. The others that got down from their rooms to get their food think that the energy was off but don't question that any further. The Dekusquad together with Mina, Eijirou and Katsuki go back to the living room, where the series is continuing. Katsuki sits next to Izuku. Crashing the happy go lucky mood that has been here before. While Izuku and Shoto watch their series as usual and talk about it as well, the rest of them couldn't help but stare at the couple. Katsuki casually drawing circles on Izuku's thigh as they eat. Whispering little affirmations and compliments as soon as his boyfriend predicted anything that happened in the show. Wiping soup from his mouth and taking both their bowls with him as soon as they finish while Izuku stay to continue the series. Knowing that Katsuki will be back in a second. He just hates undone dishes. As the rest also seem to get used to the change of atmosphere they quickly finish their dinner and putting their dishes away. The others join them as well while observing the couple as well. Only shutting up until the series is finished.
"Okay, okay guys - we need more info", Denki starts as soon as the outro plays.
"I mean I felt some energy, of course", Mina added proud, "but like why didn't you tell us?"
Izuku slightly tenses up at that question. Feeling an arm immediately around his shoulders. Hugging him warmly and leaving a kiss on his cheek. Izuku then takes Katsuki's hand and squeezes it. Letting him know that he wants them to know, but does not want to say it himself.
"We got bullied for being a gay couple back then", Katsuki explains carefully in order to not trigger Izuku with anything he says, "that's why we were careful of outing us and our relationship. And before you say something, we know you're not as shitty and stupid as those thugs but you never know."
"That's true, ribbit, but you're actually cute together", Tsuyu says smiling at them.
Izuku slightly relaxes as he studies the reactions and facial expressions of the others. While most smile or grin at them, both encouraging and teasing, he spots the girls talking quietly to each other. Looking at the couple, then giggling and then whispering something to the others. Still too nervous to ask them directly he tells Katsuki quietly, who then confronts them.
"What are you whispering about, huh? Are you gossiping even though we're right here, stupid extras?"
The girls turn to them and start to laugh immediately. Looking back at each other and exchanging glances. They didn't laugh at them and the couple knew that. So they wait for the explanation instead of exploding right away. Many of their classmates would be surprised that Katsuki could actually do that, but with Izuku at his side, he learnt to be slightly more calm.
"No, it's just-", Kyouka starts looking at her friends for help.
"That we shipped you two for a while now", Ochkao continues.
"So, we're actually really excited-", Mina adds.
"That you're dating, ribbit", Tsuyu ends.
"Why didn't I know about that?", Denki asks sounding offended to the girls, "you know we had a bet on-going on who Kacchan is telling first that he has a crush on Midoriya."
Eijiro and Hanta nod affirmative.
"Wait", Izuku interrupts confused, "first of all: what is shipping? Second of all: you had a bet on-going about Kacchan and me?"
"Ochako explained that to me recently", Shoto joins the conversation, "It's when you think that two people look cute together as a couple and you basically view them as one."
"The bet was Kaminari's idea", Hanta snitches on Denki right away, "I'm just here for the money."
"Bro, are you for real? You don't have to backstab me like that", Denki pouts scooting slightly away from Katsuki.
"Nah, that's on you", Eijiro states as both he and Hanta create distance to Denki.
"I need all the details about your relationship though", Mina intervenes before Katsuki can stand up, knowing that he is about to beat Denki up for his stupidity as always, "I gotta tell Momo and Tooru as well."
Katsuki is afraid, that Izuku is going to be uncomfortable by them being in the spotlight. But moreover he seems to enjoy it. He enjoys seeing that their friends see and treat them normally. No one acts different at all.
"Kacchan, you were right", Izuku whispers into Katsuki's ear and thankfully places a soft kiss on his cheek.
"I'm always right", his boyfriend replies grinning while giving him a kiss on the lips.
Izuku feels the heat in his cheeks as well as Katsuki's hand. He feels his own hands on Katsuki's shoulders. And he especially feels the looks of their classmates on them accompied by some sucking in the air flustered and surprised. Not long after Katsuki pulls back grinning and winking at Izuku. Making him blush even more. Sliding his thumb over his lower lip while eyeing him closely. Wanting to kiss him again.
"Bakugo, that is not appropriate. This is a shared, public space", Tenya reminds him while gesticulating with his hands.
"Fuck off, I'll kiss my boyfriend, when and where I fucking want to, Glasses", underlining his statement by pressing another kiss on Izuku's lips.
"Kacchan", Izuku mumbles quietly.
Embarrassed he doesn't dare to look at his friends even though he knows that they are being watched.
"Who knew that Bakugou can actually be sweet?", Mina teases him.
"I'm a fucking sweetheart, what do you mean?!", Katsuki shouts in his usual manner.
"Right? Deku, we need to know how you got him to shut up and not scream all of the time", Ochako ignores him while speaking straight to Izuku instead.
Just as Katsuki wants to shout at them again, he feels a hand squeezing his. Letting him know that everything is alright. Feeling Izuku's thumb stroke over his hand, he mumbles grumpily but stays silent.
"That's actually magic", Denki whispers.
"I know right? Bakugou never shuts up for anyone", Hanta whispers back.
"Guys, he can still hear you. He might not explode now, but next training session you're done for", Kyouka reminds them, not bothering to whisper as well.
"At least someone knows that I'm not fucking deaf", Katsuki mumbles while lifting Izuku onto his lap to hug him.
Izuku giggles quietly as he leaves a kiss on Katsuki's cheek before turning back to the others again.
"He meant to say 'Thank you'", Izuku says directed at Kyouka, "right?"
Katsuki nods unsatisfied.
"You really have your man in a chokehold huh? Teach me", Mina asks excitedly.
"Am I not a good boyfriend?", Eijirou asks pouting almost.
"She wants to have some kind of control, I suppose, doesn't mean you're a bad boyfriend, Kirishima. It's about power", Shoto joins out of nowhere, leading people to think about his words.
"I can't teach you", Izuku answers after a while, drawing attention back to them, "because I didn't do anything. Kacchan just likes to spoil me and doesn't like what I don't like. He knows I don't like when he doesn't thank people if he wants to secretly, for example."
"So basically he listens to you-", Denki starts.
"Because I fucking want to! My boyfriend is happy when I do that, so I of course fucking do that. It's not hard to please the one you love", Katsuki states.
Leaving Izuku blushing and the girls awing over his 'gentle' behavior. He grabs Izuku's hand softly and interlockes their fingers with each other.
"That means, you don't love us?", Hanta asks dramatically.
Falling back into Denki arms. Having Eijirou check his pulse. Sighing as if his life depends on this answer. Acting as if he was struggling to breath. Facing air to him as he makes the others around them laugh.
"If I didn't like you, would I be cooking every fucking dinner for you?", Katsuki responds sounding pissed.
"Do you have to speak in riddles? I don't get it", Denki complains after they sit in silent for a while.
"Izuku, can we go to your room? We'll loose braincells if we listen to these dumbasses any longer", Katsuki silently pleads annoyed.
Izuku smiles as he lifts their hands up and presses a peck on the back of Katsuki's hand. Giving a nod as an answer, which makes the other grin. He stands up with Izuku still on his lap and lifts him into his arms in bridal style.
"Kacchan!", Izuku squeaks surprised, "I can walk on my own."
"Don't be embarrassed, princess, I treat you like one every single day. It's nothing new", he answers while placing lots of little kisses across Izuku's heated cheeks.
"Bakugo, this is even less appropriate", Tenya sighs.
"Well, we're heading to my room now, so it won't fucking be in a public or shared space anymore", Katsuki mocks him as he is already on his way.
"Where are you going? You haven't even answered any questions", Shoto reminds him.
"None of your business", Katsuki still grinning, "It's gonna be in a fucking private space, so I'll do whatever I want!"
With that he steps away. Carrying an incredibly embarrassed Izuku in his arms that mumbles 'good nights' to his friends while hiding his face in Katsuki's hold. As soon as they are out of hearing reach the gossiping starts all over again.
"I still don't have any details", Mina whines disappointed.
"You think Midoriya will still be able to walk tomorrow?", Denki asks the group mockingly.
"Is Midoriya in trouble?", Shoto asks worried, not understanding what they're actually meaning.
"Bakugo seems pissed", Eijirou states, "but he never said anything about how he likes that."
"He seems like he'll be gentle though, I mean haven't you seen the constant princess treatment right now?", Ochako brings up giggling.
"Uraraka, that is even worse than Bakugo's behavior! We shouldn't talk behind their backs like this", Tenya fumbles with his hands once again, "We should not interfere in their private matters."
"Jirou, you think you can eavesdrop?", Hanta asks her, ignoring Tenya as well Shoto to focus on the important parts of their conversation.
Drawing the conversation to her. Having her friends look at her with pleading eyes. Almost as if they are begging.
"No matter how invested I am, I won't eavesdrop on my friends probably having sex right now", she denies.
She shakes her head at the disappointed sighs from her other friends.
"We have to ask Midoriya tomorrow, ribbit", Tsuyu suggests.
"Tsu that is genuis", Denki exclaims excitedly, "We have to speak with Midoriya but without Kacchan being there. He can't lie, he's too bad at that."
"How about we", Mina points to her, the other girls and Shoto, "go to Midoriya and the rest of you distract Bakugo."
"Do you want us to die?" Hanta asks sarcastically.
"He might actually kill us though if he finds out", Eijirou answers worried.
"And how come Todoroki can join you, but we can't?", Denki asks pouting.
Mina looks over to said person and gives him a nod.
"I'm part of their group. We shipped them for a while, also I know Midoriya better than you", he explains calmly, "I love gossiping with the girls."
While their discussion continues and they try to come up with a plan to gather more info, Katsuki reaches his room and enters with Izuku straight away. Putting him softly down before locking the door just in case.
"Kacchan!", Izuku scolds embarrassed, "You gave them the wrong idea. They probably think that we- that we..."
He stops. Sitting at the edge of the bed with Katsuki leaning over him and steadying himself with his hands and Izuku's thighs.
"Use your words, princess", Katsuki responds grinning.
"You know what I mean...", Izuku tries but feels a hand on his chin instead.
"I do, but I want you to finish your sentence."
Izuku's face blushing even more as he feels a hand creeping up his thigh.
"That we're having sex, Kacchan. They must think we're doing that now..."
"Who said we're not?", Katsuki responds calmly, "If you don't want to then tell me, but I'd like to, right now."
He leans down to kiss Izuku. Changing from the soft and gentle kisses before into hungrier and more passionate ones. Leaving a flustered Izuku behind as they slide up the bed.
The next morning is thankfully still the weekend. Izuku wakes up first and places a soft kiss on Katsuki's cheek. He on the other hand is still sleeping. Tired from last night, he's not going to wake up anytime soon and Izuku knows that. But in order to not scare him when he wakes up without Izuku by his side, he leaves him a note. Letting him know that he woke up earlier and that he wants to go for a run. He puts on his running clothes and leaves Katsuki's room carefully to not wake him up. He then heads down to the common area, where he sees the girls and Shoto sitting as if they were waiting for someone.
"Good morning", Izuku greets them smiling, "You're already awake?"
As an answer he gets sleepy nods and mumbles from his friends.
"Where are you heading?", Shoto asks.
He seems to be the only one already fully awake.
"For a run. Does anyone want to join me? Kacchan is still sleeping so I'd have to go alone otherwhise", he informs them.
After saying that the rest suddenly seems more awake and all of them agree on joining Izuku. A bit confused because Ochako or Tsuyu never want to join him this early in the morning. But also happy because he can talk with his friends this way. Not knowing that exactly this was the plan of them. Some went upstairs to let the boys know, that they have to distract Katsuki in someway when he wakes up. After they come down and head out for a run, Izuku is glad the others seem to not run as frequently as him. They are not as fast and canct keep us. He runs away as they try to bombard him with questions of last night. Only Shoto being able to catch up and getting all the info of their relationship as planned. Luckily for Izuku Shoto doesn't tease him, but he also knows that now that he told someone, more of their classmates will be knowing soon. The only thing Izuku hopes at this point is that the Bakusquad survives Katsuki's predictable rage.
