Lazyreader288: From the manga, my estimate of the size of Izuku's bed is that it's about as big as mine (A single medium sized bed), and I'm about as tall as Katsuki. It comfortably fit three people of my size as long as no one spread out, and four people is cramped but still tolerable. Also, I think I've hinted that Izuku himself has grown to like sleeping with his friends, so there's that.
Onward to the chapter!
Day 32
It's always nice to be out of hospital. There's just something about the ever lingering sterility in a hospital that makes Izuku rather queasy, no matter how comfortable everything is. Also hospital food can go burn in Endeavor's butthole. It's that terrible.
Also, it's nice that he could finally return to his own bed. No matter how cramped it had been for the last few weeks or so, Izuku couldn't help but to grew to like the feeling of having his friends sleeping with him on his bed. Hell, even Eijirou's snoring had somehow become a nice little white noise that accompany his sleep.
Talking about his bed…
"Where did you guys slept last night?" Izuku asked to Eijirou during lunch. Like always, it earned him weird looks from his other classmates, but at that point he had gotten used to it. "With me being in hospital and all."
Eijirou blinked before grinning sheepishly. "Ah, yeah. We sleep in the usual place. Sorry about that."
"Oh." Well, that explained why his bed looked a little crinkled when he come back. "It's alright."
Day 33
When he woke up, Izuku found that Eijirou had fallen to the floor in his sleep. If he's being honest, he's more surprised that it hasn't happened earlier. While his bed isn't exactly small since it did fit four teenagers at once, if a little cramped, he thought that someone falling off the bed is pretty much inevitable. And of course, the one who fell is the rowdiest sleeper out of them.
Maybe someone had fallen before but managed to wake up and picked themselves off the floor? It's a possibility, though Katsuki sleep like a rock and Shouto sleep sandwiched between him and the wall.
Wriggling himself out of Katsuki and Shouto's limbs, Izuku got off the bed and wondered what he should do with Eijirou. Should he wake him up or just pick the other teen off the floor by himself? Izuku took some pride on the fact he can easily lift adults even without using One for All, after all.
In the end, Izuku decided to just pick Eijirou up and put him between Shouto and Katsuki, pausing a little to make sure the fiery headed teen's drool doesn't drop on his clothes. He looked at Eijirou for a little longer, noticing that once Eijirou stopped snoring, he did look really cute in his sleep.
Reaching for his phone, Izuku took some photos and added them to his growing collection of Shouto, Katsuki, and Eijirou's sleeping pictures. Not that he ever intended on sharing it with anyone of course. When it come to embarrassing photos, he and Katsuki is pretty much tied after all.
Day 35
"Midoriya." Tenya called out, earning the green haired teen's attention.
It's the weekend, and since they are the ones stuck with the cleaning duty for the weekend, it pretty much meant that they're the only ones in the dorm since everyone else is going out somewhere. Izuku himself is supposed to eat lunch together with Shouto, Ochako, and Tenya in the nearby mall once they're finished with cleaning.
"I saw Bakugou and Kirishima coming out from your room this morning." Tenya stated, causing Izuku to freeze momentarily. Oh crap. "Do you happen to know why?"
Izuku was grateful that he's facing away from Tenya at the time. "Umm, I guess they are looking for something? Kirishima did told me that he lost his phone this morning."
Which was true. But he don't need to tell Tenya that the reason why Eijirou told him in the first place is because he had probably lost it when sleeping on Izuku's bed.
"Strange. Why would they look for it in your room?" Tenya wondered out loud, and Izuku cursed internally. Of course Tenya will be suspicious.
Izuku made his best attempt at a nonchalant shrug. "Maybe they though someone hid it there? Kaminari did often do things like that."
He knew that Tenya is still skeptical. After all, he and Ochako had been looking at him rather strangely for a while now ever since that time he asked Shouto about where he slept, and it only got worse after he asked Eijirou the same question.
In the end, Tenya dropped the subject and returned to sweeping his part.
Day 36
When Izuku woke up, he realized that there's something terribly wrong with his sleeping position. For one, he was 100% sure that when he went to sleep, his head is positioned right in front of the headboard, not the wall. Second, he's pretty sure that there's only four people on his bed when he woke up, and not five.
The horrible realization came a few second later when he spotted an eyeglass on the headboard among the All Might figures, and there's only one person he knew that wears it.
Of course. Why hadn't he anticipated something like this? At least they're nice enough to move him around so they all have a fairly comfortable space while sleeping.
If Tenya looked a little happier than usual the next day, then he certainly have no idea why (Seriously, is sleeping on his bed that nice?). Ochako seemed even more suspicious than usual, however, and Izuku just prayed that Tenya didn't tell their new arrangement to anyone since at this point he's convinced that if words got out, then more people will pile themselves onto his bed.
Day 37
"Two is already weird enough for me, no matter how comfortable and admittedly nice it is." Mirio stated. "I couldn't imagine having four of my friends sleeping on my bed."
Izuku sighed. "I mean, I'll be lying if I said that I didn't at least enjoy their company a little bit. But at this point I'm more concerned that my bed won't stand having five people sleeping on it everyday."
"Maybe you can change your bed to something bigger." Mirio suggested.
"Mirio-senpai, don't you think that would just invite more people to sleep on my bed instead?" Izuku pointed out and Mirio blinked. "There's more people who want to sleep with you?"
"At this point I won't be surprised if everyone in my class wanted to." Izuku deadpanned. In the end, Izuku decided to change the topic. "Talking about sleeping, have you ever accidentally activated your Quirk during sleep?"
Mirio went silent for a while before replying. "More than it should have, less than I thought."
Day 38
Izuku didn't exactly get a new bed, but he did rearrange the stuff on his headboard slightly so Tenya can have somewhere to put his glasses on where he can safely reach it easily upon waking up. While Tenya himself didn't make any requests, the fact that the arrangement of the All Might figures on his headboard changed when he returned from his morning exercise told him that something must have happened to mess it up for a moment.
If the fact that Tenya gave him his pudding in the lunch is any indication, the gesture seemed to be fairly well received by the intended target. It's always nice to have your little efforts be rewarded.
Day 40
It was the very first time that all five of them were awake at the same time while on Izuku's bed. It had been Shouto's fault, really. Izuku had no idea what kind of dream that his friend have that the half-hot half-cold teen activated his fire quirk in his sleep and burnt part of the bed, but it happened.
Izuku immediately woke up when he smelled smoke and proceeded to wake the other four up. Shouto immediately used his ice to put out the fire, leaving small scorch marks on the bed and an awkward silence hanging over the five of them. As it appeared, none of them had any idea what the hell were they supposed to say while Katsuki just scowl in irritation, annoyed that his sleep had been interrupted.
Looking at the clock, Izuku realized that it's still one AM, definitely too early for well, anything really. Releasing a deep breath, Izuku gestured the others to move away from his bed and proceeded to change the cover of the bed, spending a few seconds to mour the loss of one of his All Might themed bed cover as he did so.
"Shoucchan." Izuku said quietly, startling Shouto slightly. "You sleep in the middle. I don't know what dream did you have, but you're being our hug pillow for tonight."
Shouto doesn't seem to mind too much, though Katsuki and Eijirou looked like they wanted to say something before a tired glare from Izuku shuts them up. It's too early for him to deal with shits like that. It can wait until morning. For now, Izuku let himself to be embraced by the sweet sweet peace of sleep.
A/N: Adding to the reply to the review, believe me, I've done my research and have enough experience of hosting sleepovers to know how much people can fit into a single bed. Also, in case you're a bit confused, when Tenya joined, they went from sleeping vertically to horizontally to accommodate the increased number of people.
Also, this is the evolution of the sleeping arrangement (so far):
Katsuki - Izuku | Wall
Katsuki - Izuku - Shouto | Wall
Eijirou/Katsuki (They took turns) - Izuku - Shouto | Wall
Headboard| Eijirou/Katsuki - Izuku - Shouto - Tenya (Shouto and Tenya is most likely still striking up a bargain with each other on who get to sleep next to Izuku on what day)
