Chapter One: Day 1-40
Day 1
Izuku woke up with a face right in front of him. Which was weird, since the green haired teen was 100% sure that he had gone to bed alone. Nonetheless, there's someone's face right in front of his, and Izuku immediately put a name to the face, and with the name, come a realization.
A terrible, terrible, realization. It took every part of him to hold himself back from outright shrieking at the sheer absurdity of the situation. He really don't want anyone to be woken up by his shriek and came to the room and see... this.
Izuku noted that there's a pair of arm around him, as if using him as hug pillow. Which meant that they slept hugging each other. Fantastic.
In the end, Izuku looked at the clock, trying to divert his mind away from the situation he woke up into. It's 3:30 AM. Why had he woken up so early? His morning routine didn't start until five, after all. Izuku also noted that he didn't woke up from the alarm, which meant it's one of those days where he woke up at strange hours.
Deciding that it's still too early, Izuku let himself drift back to sleep, hoping that waking up to Kacchan's sleeping face is just an awfully strange dream he had.
Day 5
Izuku had resigned himself to fact that yes, Kacchan did sleep on his bed for the last five days.
He was reminded that Katsuki is a naturally deep sleeper who only woke up when he need to, which is a bit of a blessing for Izuku. He really don't know what the hell was he supposed to say if Katsuki woke up when he's still there.
In the end, Izuku had fell into the routine of waking up at 5 AM as he usually did, carefully untangle himself from Katsuki's limbs, and get up to do his morning routine before class started. And so far, the explosive blond always disappeared when Izuku returned from his daily morning jog and exercise.
Izuku decided to pretend nothing had happened, interacting with Katsuki in their usual manner of thinly veiled threat meeting resigned sigh. If Katsuki is gonna bring it up, then Izuku see no reason to. After all, the last he needed was his classmates and All Might finding out about the fact that he and Katsuki sleeps on the same bed for five days and probably counting.
Day 7
Izuku took a deep breath and sighed quietly to himself. Of course. Now Shouto is there too. Fantastic. He's not really complaining since Shouto did have a really nice temperature that helped him to sleep comfortably, but being sandwiched by Shouto and Katsuki in his own bed isn't exactly something he ever even thought will happen. Then again, having a Quirk and living past fifteen isn't something he ever thought will happen but there he was.
In the end Izuku snuggled a little closer to Shouto and drifted back to sleep. Knowing his luck, it's probably better for him and his mental health to just went along with whatever happened.
When he returned from his morning exercise, both of them were gone, and like Katsuki had been in the last seven days, neither acted like anything have happened so Izuku wisely keep his mouth shut about the whole thing.
Day 10
It has become a routine. A strange one, and one that sometimes make Izuku question his own sanity, but a routine nonetheless. Wake up at five, untangle himself from Katsuki and Shouto, do his morning exercise, took a shower, then go to class and pretend nothing happened. Izuku honestly felt pretty confident about his chance if he ever auditioned for a role in Hollywood at this point.
Day 20
"Shoucchan." Izuku called out, and Shouto turned to him. "Where were you last night?"
Shouto blinked for a moment before shrugging. "Felt my nose running a little. Nothing too bad."
Izuku nodded in understanding while the rest of the class (minus Katsuki, who just looked annoyed) looked at him and Shouto weirdly. Maybe they are weird. After two weeks of both Shouto and Katsuki's constant presence in his bed, Izuku honestly felt a little weird in his sleep when Shouto isn't present. Weirded out enough to wake himself up at 1 AM to snuggle up to Katsuki apparently.
Day 25
Eijirou joined the list of people who slept in Izuku's bed at day 23, two days after he and Katsuki started dating. There was a moment where Izuku thought that maybe that way Katsuki will start joining Eijirou's bed instead of his to sleep but apparently he was wrong.
What is so special about his bed anyway? Izuku was pretty sure the bed he had in the dorm isn't anything special since he just brought his own bed over. The last time he checked, Shouto's bed is more comfortable than his.
There were several problems, however, with Eijirou joining in.
One, Eijirou have a terrible sleeping posture which pretty much meant that it's almost guaranteed for Izuku to wake up with one of Eijirou's limbs on his face.
Two, Eijirou snored pretty loudly. Admittedly his snore while loud is a bit cute, but it's a loud snore nonethless, which isn't something that Izuku is really used to. Judging by the fact that Shouto seemed to stir in his sleep more, neither did Shouto.
Month 2, Day 26
"Say, All Might." Izuku began. "Is it normal for your classmates to sleep with you?"
Yagi blinked at his successor's question. "Excuse me?"
Izuku blushed when he realized his rather poor wording. "I meant, sleep on the same bed. Not that kind of... sleeping together."
Of course Izuku knew that it's definitely not normal. At this point Izuku was just hoping that he's not the only person that suffer through the same fate.
"Well..." Yagi began. "I recalled Mirio asking the same question in regard of Tamaki and Nejire. Did something happened with your friends?"
"Nothing that you should be worried about." Izuku smiled and Yagi immediately switched to another, less awkward topic.
After all there's no way Yagi will ever admit to anyone about that strange period in high school where Shota and Hizashi would just suddenly appear on his bed when he woke up.
Month 2, Day 27
"Of course!" Togata replied easily. "I have been sleeping with Nejire and Tamaki for the last two years!"
"Mirio-senpai, wording." Izuku pointed out exasperatedly. "Huh, so it's not that weird after all."
Togata shook his head. "No, it's definitely weird. I gave up trying to make sense of what happened two weeks in and just go with whatever."
"That makes the two of us, then." Izuku sighed. "Granted, it's only been a little less than one month..."
In the end, Izuku found that not questioning it will make life easier for him, and his sleep more comfortable. He did miss having something sleeping beside him ever since he and Katsuki stopped regularly having sleepovers when they were five.
Month 2, Day 30
Izuku is fairly curious, as he lay on the hospital bed, did Katsuki, Shouto, and Eijirou still sleep on his bed when he's not around? After all, this is the first time that Izuku had to stay in a hospital ever since Katsuki first moved to his bed.
What had happened was another incident involving the League of Villain, and for once, Tomura was the one that ended up with more shattered bones than him. Izuku couldn't help but feel a little vindicated by that fact, and the fact that he himself got away with only a stab wound and some mild burns is a bonus on itself.
In the end, he drifted to sleep, feeling a little cold without the warmth of his friends' bodies around him.
A/N: Heya everybody! This is the first chapter of "Sleeping Safe and Sound", a half-crack and half-fluff fic that will eventually turn into a full on Dekubowl somewhere down the line. How? Who knew, I certainly don't. I could have sworn there's a good reason why this thing existed, but at this point I'm drawing up blanks.
