Izuku awakes to the sound of loud obnoxious snoring and a strong sturdy arm draped around him.
Their son, Rekka, is sleeping soundly on Izukus lap, curled into his stomach and gripping his shirt in his sleep. Next to him, Katsuki holds Hikari in the crook of his shoulder, the small girl mirroring her father with a lighter snore—a stark contrast to the hack saw buzzing above her.
Glancing at his phone he sees it’s over half past midnight. With pizza boxes askew on the coffee table and crumbs on his shirt, he slowly lifts the 2-year-old into his arms and attempts to stand up.
Katsuki’s well defined arm traps him in place as he stirs, a scowl adorning the blonds handsome face even while he’s asleep.
“Kacchan, wake up,” Izuku whispers, “it’s past their bed time,” He lightly pats at the sleeved arm wrapped around his waist.
Katsuki groans before scrunching his face into a deeper scowl. His grip tightens in an affectionate squeeze before letting up and retracting it to rest in their daughter’s soft, spiky hair.
Katsuki glares sleepily at his husband, to which Izuku giggles in response.
“C’mon Kacchan, let’s get them to bed,” he nudges the blond who blinks groggily and grunts in response. “We have to get up early.”
Leaning down, Izuku presses a soft kiss to pink lips, a hand coming up to grip his chin to extend the kiss.
“…ew.” Hikari, apparently awoken from her parent’s shifting around, sticks her tongue out in open disgust.
The pair pull apart with a chuckle before Katsuki begins obnoxiously peppering loud kisses all over Izuku’s face; migrating downwards to bring the fond display atop Hikari’s head.
The toddler shrieks and attempts to squirm away from her father’s affections, only for him to wrap his arms gently around her locking her in place.
Rekka sniffles and nuzzles his head back and forth on his dad’s chest before blinking up at Izuku; his small face lighting up when Izuku smiles and coos at him.
“Alright spider monkey, let’s get you and lil’ man over here to bed, yeah?” Katsuki says grinning fondly. Rekka turns and smiles even wider at his dad’s voice.
Hikari, calming down from the flurry of kisses nods her head and yawns loudly. Izuku giggles and breaks out into one as well.
“C’mon nerds let’s go,” grunting as he stands up and maneuvers his daughter to his hip, Katsuki extends a hand to his lover. Smiling, Izuku takes it while cradling little Rekka whose eyelids flutter while watching his parents.
The family of four make their way down the hallway to the main bedroom’s bathroom to get ready for bed.
“Can you get Rekka ready while I braid Hika’s hair, please?” Izuku says once they’re all standing in front of the rectangular mirror.
Katsuki hums, setting Hikari on top the bathroom countertop, and gently takes Rekka from his husband’s loving arms.
He turns and walks back into the couples room and towards Rekkas dresser. Opening it with one hand, he rummages through the drawer filled with onesies and 2-piece pajama sets until he finds one from the Wonder Duo collection (his personal favorite, I mean c’mon, you can’t blame the guy, it’s downright adorable.)
Setting the small child on their shared bed, he quickly changes him into the onesie before picking him up. Before returning to his other halves he heads to his daughter’s room and picks out a similar onesie for her as well.
When he steps into the bathroom, he sees Hikari with her green hair miraculously tamed into a short braid, and Izuku brushing her teeth with his tooth brush hanging out of his own mouth.
“Spoiled princess..” Katsuki grunts out as he comes over to plant a kiss on his husband’s cheek as he sets down Hikari’s pajamas next to the girl.
Izuku already has his hair pushed back with a headband and toothpaste dribbling down his chin. Katsuki scoffs, yet reaches over with a towel and gently whips it off before it can drop on the nerd.
Izuku smiles as he finishes helping Hikari, before resuming his own task. He hands Katsuki the little toothbrush with a smear of toothpaste on it for Rekkas still incoming teeth.
Setting him down, Katsuki grabs it and begins softly brushing the very few teeth he’s gained. With minimal fuss, he finishes up and rinses it off and sets it in their All Might graphic cup.
He tenderly picks up his groggy son and cradles Rekka in his left arm while supporting his tiny head, leaning over to push green curls up to kiss Izukus forehead.
The pair share a soft smile while Hikari sticks her tongue out making a ‘bleh’ noise. Katsuki dips down and plants one of her forehead as well.
Katsuki saunters into the couples bedroom, and turns the lamp next to the crib on. He softly lowers the little ball of sunshine into his sage-colored crib.
Making sure he’s secured, Katsuki leans down to kiss his son’s cheek, smiling when he stirs with a small yawn. His miniature hands make a grabbing motion and latch onto Katsuki’s dark sleeve and the side of his face.
“Go to sleep dork,” Katsuki says softly while taking hold of his small, chubby hand and rubbing his thumb over it. “We don’t need you all fussy tomorrow.”
Chuckling softly as the hand falls away and Rekka drifts back to sleep, Katsuki stands up to his full height to admire the little one. His son, his pride and joy.
He finally tears his gaze from his beloved son when he hears the sound of soft footsteps pattering up next to him.
Turning to her, he spots Hikari standing by the crib holding onto the railing in her pajamas, rubbing her watery eyes at the tail-end of a yawn.
He goes to ruffle her typically unruly spikes, but hesitates and instead just puts his head on it instead. She grips his hand and silently leads him to her room to put her to bed after waving bye to her brother.
She stretches up into her bed, lifting the curtains for her, Katsuki gets in after her. She reaches beside the bed to the little nightstand-bookshelf and pulls a picture book out.
“Can you read this one to me, please papa?” She says in a quiet, sleep riddled voice while snuggling into her dad’s side.
“Sure thing spider,” Katsuki wraps an arm around her and opens the book and begins to read for her.
After a few minutes of reading and soft rubs on her upper back, Hikari snores lowly and cuddles further into his side.
Katsuki’s mouth tilts up slightly as he looks up towards the door to find Izuku leaning against it. Arms crossed as he smiles fondly already in his sleep shirt and boxers minus the pants of the set, which are probably already laid out on the bed for Katsuki.
Izuku steps forward and lifts the curtain as he leans down to kiss the crown of Hikari’s head. She stirs slightly before Izuku rubs the pad of his thumb along the expanse of her eyebrow, which lulls her back to sleep.
The pair share a quick smile before Katsuki follows suit, dropping a kiss on her crown before moving her under the covers with a gentle caress over her forehead.
Standing up, they quietly make their way down the hall back to their bedroom. Katsuki plants a kiss on Izuku’s cheek as he parts to finish his nighttime routine, while Izuku gets settled in bed.
Katsuki stares at himself in the mirror, letting his gaze fall onto his gold wedding band, a grin etching into his face.
How Katsuki got so lucky, he’ll never know. To be a pro-hero, married to his childhood friend and partner, have two wonderful kids, loved ones and friends—which he would only admit he didn’t mind when he got sentimental before drifting into dreamland next to his nerd—was all he ever wanted in life.
Grinning through the rest of his routine he strips his dark long sleeve and loose, grey sweatpants off, throwing them in the laundry basket before exiting the bathroom.
He picks up the pants Izuku left out for him and puts them on, the matching shirt being worn by a comfortable Izuku already half asleep.
Katsuki turns off the lights before climbing into the big bed beside his husband. Immediately, Izuku scoots to cling onto his front side, perfectly slotting into Katsuki’s arms.
Stuffing his nose into fresh smelling curls, Katsuki allows his hands to creep up under Izuku’s shirt and rub shapes and ‘I ‘heart’ you’s into the toned side. Izuku smiles and rests his arms loosely around Katsuki’s neck.
Izuku leaves barely there kisses on the blonds neck and cheek, snuggling even closer. Katsuki leans down and plants a firm kiss onto his pink lips, mumbling sweet nothings into Izuku’s mouth as the two begin drifting to sleep.
