He is Acting Weird

"Kacchaan, where are your dirty clothes from the other day?" Izuku walked to the living room, trying to find his lover. It's a rare day off, he needs to do chores since they've been ignoring things for a long period of time. They were still at the hot spring in the morning and drove home at noon, so they haven't even pack out yet. Usually they paid someone to get things done whenever they couldn't do the chores, but these days they tried their hardest to do chores as much as they could since Katsuki hates having other person touching their things when they're not around SO much. He wouldn't stop complaining at how his things changed place and such.

Katsuki who was watching TV reflectively looked at Izuku. "You're doing laundry?"

"Yep, that's why I'm asking for your dirty clothes," Izuku waited at the corner of the hallway to the washing room and bathroom.

"I'll do my clothes by myself later, just do whatever in there first," Katsuki looked at the TV again.

"Huh? I can do all of it now, why you should wait for later?" Izuku tilted his head. "Is it in your bag? I'll take your bag," Izuku was about to walk to the bedroom when Katsuki suddenly jumped. He walked to Izuku and pulled him.

"You do the dishes, I'll wash the clothes," Katsuki walked to the bedroom to take his bag.

"But we've done the dishes…" Izuku a little bit confused.

"Then sit down and watch TV or something, I'll do the laundry," Katsuki jumped to the washing room. Izuku tilts his head.

"Well.. if you insist…"

After the fight in the trip they spent most of time doing nothing than walked around, buying things for their friends and having sex. They went home the day after at the noon, with both of them feeling closer than ever. Well, it should be like that. But Izuku found that Katsuki's been acting weird since this morning. First of all, when Izuku woke up, Katsuki was already opened his eyes, sat on the chair outside their veranda, calling someone. He said that it was just Kirishima and Kirishima even greeted Izuku from the phone, but it still weird. Unless his emergency dial wasn't ringing, Katsuki will never wake up to a phone call. Well, maybe he was tired after their fight so he woke earlier? Still weird. Before coming home Katsuki was really busy in his phone, something that never happens before. The only thing he's busy with is news and villain's status on police report, but he usually just used his tablet and not his phone since the screen was bigger for him to see. Phone is only used before bed since it's smaller, more convenient.

And now, he's taking the laundry chore just because Izuku asked him for his clothes.

Totally weird.

Izuku tries to shrug it off and opened his own phone. He tried to message some of his friends and mom about his trip with Katsuki and souvenirs he bought for them. Izuku was so immersed in his phone he didn't really notice that Katsuki walked out the house. After a view minute, he heard the sound of the washing machine being done but no clattering sound of taking out the clothes. Izuku frowned and looked over his shoulder even though he knew no one behind him.

"Kacchan, are you there?" Izuku wait for a few seconds but no answer. He frowns harder and stands up, tries to find the blond hair hero who was there a few minutes ago. "Kacchan?"

Izuku walks into the bedroom, but no one is there. He walks out and looks around, still no sign of him. Izuku looks at the veranda, also no one is there. He walks to the bathroom, looking at the hallway towards the front door. No one is there. Izuku tilts his head. Did he go out? When did he go again?

Izuku mumbles while walking to the front door to check if Katsuki's shoes are there. He finds that all of Katsuki's shoes are there but his sandals were gone. It's the pair he uses whenever he goes out to nearby park or convenience store. Maybe he was out to buy detergent? But Katsuki never left without telling him before. Izuku still mumbles and walks to the washing room and taking out the clothes, moves it to the dryer.

Izuku starts the dryer and walks at the living room again, still with questions inside his head. He reaches his phone and messages Katsuki.

Kacchan, where are you?

Izuku clicks send and sighs. He leans back to the sofa and looks at the ceiling. At least Katsuki should say something… Izuku can go with him. They spent so little time together lately, and now of all the time Izuku feels really clingy. He just want to be with Katsuki all the time, and even when he was doing laundry, knowing that Katsuki was at the living room already soothing for him. Izuku pulls his legs up and hugs it with his arms, resting his chin on his knees. He sighs once again and looks at his phone.

"Kacchan, you idiot…" he mumbles when he saw nothing on the screen.

"Really? The fucking second I walk in and you already insulting me?" a harsh voice made Izuku felt better but he didn't want to look at the voice's maker.

"Because you are an idiot. You didn't say that you were going, you made me scared, you know."

Katsuki stayed silent for a second. "I'm sorry."

Izuku snickered when he heard Katsuki's guilty voice. He looked at Katsuki and smiled. "It's fine, I was a little bit lonely that's all."

Katsuki looks really guilty about that, his eyebrows still frowning into great shape. Izuku a little bit surprised that Katsuki took it seriously, usually he will just call Izuku sappy. "Wait, Kacchan, don't look like that, I'm fine really!"

Izuku stands up and walks toward Katsuki who was still standing near the sofa. The green haired hero holds the other's hands and smiles. "I helped you to dry the clothes."

Katsuki looked like he was about to say something but he held it in. "Thanks."

"Why did you come out earlier?" Izuku asked while taunting his fingers with Katsuki's. Katsuki didn't say anything but he didn't push Izuku away.

"Kirishima was nearby," Katsuki said in low voice. Izuku leans closer and tip toed a little to kiss the taller hero. Katsuki closed his eyes and freed his fingers from Izuku, moved his hand to Izuku's neck and cheek. Izuku opens his mouth when he felt Katsuki's tongue finding a way in. After a few seconds of deep kiss, Izuku broke the kiss.

"What did you guys do?" Izuku asked with a whisper.

"I gave him his damn souvenirs," Katsuki moved closer to kiss Izuku again. Izuku welcomed the kiss happily. Katsuki put his hands on Izuku's thighs and carried him in one swoop. Izuku moved smoothly to cling on Katsuki's torso with his legs and hugged his neck, not braking off the kiss. They did it so many times that failure was not even an option. At the first weeks they dated, they failed those attempts quite… painfully. There's one time Katsuki fell and injured his hand. Izuku felt really bad about that, but Katsuki blamed himself internally for being stupid and fell during a kiss. Now, they do it like pros.

Katsuki carries Izuku to the bedroom and lies him down gently. He broke the kiss off for a few second to open his shirt off and threw it on the floor. Izuku bit his lip and opens his own buttons. His fingers are trembling, he opens them slowly. Katsuki smirks and holds his hand gently, kisses it and helps him opens his buttons. Izuku blushes hard and hides his face with his hands.

"Ka-kacchan, you're being weird…"

"Weird like what?" Katsuki asked while moving to Izuku's neck and kisses it softly, making Izuku giggles.

"You're not usually like this, what's happen?" Izuku giggled.

Katsuki suddenly sits up straight, making Izuku surprised, but also lonely that his warmness moved away. "Actually I want to give you something."

Izuku's eyes shines. "Give me something? What a rare occasion?" Izuku feels a little bit confused but happy. Katsuki is not one who gives gift easily. If he buys Izuku clothes, or things, usually he will just give it like it doesn't matter, so when he says that he wants to 'give something' means it's a 'real gift'. Izuku got gifts in his birthdays and sometimes holidays, depends on the time, but not in early April like this. Katsuki's birthday is nearer, it should be Izuku who is giving gift.

"Nah, it's more like a reminder… or a collar?" Katsuki raised one of his eyebrow, deciding on which term portray his intention the best.

"Huh?" Izuku was really surprised. "You're giving me a collar?"

"No," Katsuki looked confused. He ruffled his blond hair, impatient with himself and he clicked his tongue.

"Whatever, just use it," Katsuki takes a small box inside his back pocket and throws it to Izuku. Izuku was surprised but he caught it well. He frowns and looks at Katsuki. Katsuki refuses to look at him and just looks away. Izuku opens the box and found a small silver metal inside. Izuku opens his eyes and sits up straight. He takes out the small silver metal and finds out that it was round silver metal-something that is called a ring. Izuku smiles brightly and wears it on his ring finger.

"It fits!" Izuku said happily. Katsuki finally willing to look at Izuku when he heard how happy Izuku's voice was. "Of course it does. I fucking pick the wrong size before."

"Oh, did you? What's happen?" Izuku asked with a chuckle. He still had the high tension from the ring.

"I bought that like a couple days ago and never really get the chance to know your size or whatever, so I tried it on you in our second night at the hot spring, and it didn't fucking fit. It won't go anywhere past your joint, that stupid ring. So I called Kirishima to resize the ring for me and I need to fucking sent it quickly yesterday morning – or more like at dawn – since the timing would be really bad if I didn't get to give you the ring today, I don't know when we will have another free time together again. He came to pass me the ring just now," Katsuki ruffled his hair with his hand.

"Ahahaha, thanks for going all of that trouble!" Izuku raised his hand and admired his ring. It is just a simple silver ring without any decoration on it, just a little curving of the letter "K's" inside. Izuku realizes something and looks at Katsuki.

"What about you? Where's yours?" Izuku asked.

"Me? Not really buying it for myself-"

"Wait, what!?" Izuku widened his eyes. "No, no, I won't be using the ring all by myself!" Izuku's eyes changed from disagreement with joy.

"Wait, that's mean I can buy you a ring!" his eyes shone brightly. "What a perfect opportunity! It's near your birthday, it will be your birthday present!"

"Oy, shitty nerd-"

Izuku kisses Katsuki lightly and grins after that. "I will do it and no complain."

Katsuki tilts his head and smirks. "The shitty nerd sure has a nerve of steal now. You even cut my sentence now."

Izuku chuckles. "I've been dating you for a long time, I know how to handle you."

O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O

"Deku-kun! How are you?" Uraraka smiled and waved from her desk. She takes a bundle of papers from her desk and runs toward the green suited hero who was just walked in.

"I'm fine after a couple days of holiday," Izuku grinned. "How about you, Uraraka-san?"

"I'm fine, really. This job is making all of us crazy, but now your agency is helping, I guess we can take a breath of relieve a little," Uraraka shook her head and handed over a bundle of papers. "It's really messed up."

"So one of your senior had been sleeping for a couple days, and no sign of waking up?" Izuku asked while looking at the files on his hand. A blue haired hero is sleeping on the paper. Uraraka nods.

"He is really capable person, my senior is," Uraraka looks at Izuku. Izuku nods, understand what Uraraka meant. She wanted to say that this person is not a person who would lose easily, the same kind as Katsuki and himself. This person might be the same person; in fact, Izuku almost 100% believes that he was the same person who messed up with his memories.

"It will be a long and though case," Izuku looks at the files. "I will look around in the area he was patrolling before."

"If you gonna do that, do it without your hero suit," a woman in the desk near them warned Izuku. "We've been around the area for a couple days, he will definitely won't expect a hero without their suit there."

Izuku nods at the advice, even though he believes that the Memoir guy will surely remember his face, but what's wrong with a little disguise?

"I will tag in too, since it's my case in the first place," Uraraka looked at Izuku. Izuku nods at her. "Sure."

Uraraka changed into her casual clothes while Izuku needs to change in his office, so he walks to his office first to change, then they meet in the middle.

"Ah, Deku-kun, here!" Uraraka waved her hand and smiled happily when she recognized Izuku in his cap and casual clothes. Izuku runs toward her and put his finger in front of his mouth and hushes her.

"Don't say my hero name!" Izuku whispered.

Uraraka's eyes caught a silver metal on Izuku's ring finger. Uraraka frowns when she sees that. "Deku-kun…"

Uraraka holds Izuku's hand and looks at it closer. "Bakugou-kun gave you a ring!?" Uraraka wasn't loud, but Izuku still covering her mouth.

"Pssst!" he felt a little bit embarrassed when she said it like that. People in his office kinda noticed but they didn't say anything than elbowing him on his chest or stomach and giving him a little finger snap and wink. Made Izuku embarrassed, but not as much as being asked directly about it.

Uraraka actually chuckles and looks at Izuku with bright eyes. "Good for you! Are you guys getting married?"

Izuku blushes hard when he heard that and waves his hands fast. "No, no! It wasn't something like that… It's not an 'engaged ring', it's more like a 'promise ring'… I guess?" Izuku felt really embarrassed after saying that, he scratched his cheek shyly.

"It's still great! It means that Bakugou-kun expressing that he is serious with you!" Uraraka lifts Izuku's hand once again and stares at the ring. "I'm really glad for you."

Izuku smiles. He feels really warm inside his heart when he heard Uraraka's sincere thought. A friend like this is really important, something that he might never really know if he didn't met All Might and being One for All successor.

"Thank you so much, Uraraka-san. You've been a wonderful friend for me these past years," Izuku smiled gently. "I'm really grateful having you beside me."

Uraraka blushes at those lines and smacks him on his back. "What a bold guy, you are! You sure change a lot, aren't you, Izuku-kun!"

Izuku chuckles. "Did I? I don't think so. If I did change, it's also thanks to you, Uraraka-san, for making me believe in myself and the meaning of 'Deku' in our first year."

Uraraka blushes harder and covers herself with her hands.

"Uf, I just can't with you…"
