Ever look at someone and just go "Damn"? Because that happens often to Katsuki. Like every twenty minutes or so. Or more specifically, it happens whenever he looks at the most adorable human on the planet currently. Cause you know, they might have kids one day and he'll be damned if any child he has won't be the absolute most precious thing.

Every time he catches sight of Izuku he has the urge to just blow something up to counterbalance the amount of cute going on. It's not like he's even trying to be cute either! He just is naturally! It's frustrating sometimes because he can never win an argument. All Izuku has to do is pout his lip out just a little and he caves hard. The worst part is Izuku doesn't even realize that he has him wrapped around his nimble little finger. He just knows that Katsuki will, would and has done everything he could ever ask for. Sometimes without him even asking for it.

Katsuki used to be such a bitter person. Hated everything. Everyone irritated him, stranger or not. He'd refused to accept anyone into his life after high school. He had one friend, who doubled as his roommate. He had a cheap, but nice, apartment right down the street from where he bar tended. He made bank in tips and his cat was a pampered, maybe a little spoiled, princess. What more did he need in life?

Apparently he needed a little green headed twenty something year old surgeon in training to boop him on his nose and tell him "You have really pretty eyes" with his head cocked to the side with a lopsided smile.

Love at first sight could kiss his ass. He had love at first 'boop'. He picked up so many extra shifts at work the next three months after that first brief meeting his boss made him take a mandatory week off. Something about him working more than the amount of hours legally allowed, or something like that? He didn't know. He was pissed either way, because the cute little greenie hadn't made another appearance since that first night.

It was something else that pissed him off. Did the other guy not feel the zing he did? Were his eyes the only thing he liked? Was he even gay or bisexual? Maybe he was just being nice? Maybe telling Katsuki that his eyes were pretty was just his one good deed for the day? Katsuki never thought his eyes were anything special. Kids growing up used to tell him he had demon eyes or eyes filled with blood, so he just took to keep his eyes either closed or down as much as possible. It's something that carried into his adult life as well. Little kids would normally get scared at his eye color. Or maybe it was his resting bitch face? He didn't know which it was.

The child in front of him in line at the grocery store down the street from his house wouldn't stop crying to tell him which it was. The mom standing in front of him turned back to glare at him but stopped dead in her tracks, huffed and then turned back around to move forward in line.

He sucks on his teeth and bows his head to look down at the items in his handheld cart. He got everything he and Eijirou needed for dinner tonight, but he didn't want his eyes and or face making the small boy in front of him cry again. Then the small boy in front of him was laughing, so he looked up and say the boy looking down at his arm. Did he have something on him?

The breath that caught in his throat almost killed him, he swears. Well that or it was the gum he accidentally swallowed, but that's neither here or there. The problem was that he was coughing violently. Coughing violently in front of the really cute guy he mat at the bar. Oh how attractive he must have been at the moment.

The greenie that was standing almost next to him, pat him on his back and helped him not die in line at a random grocery store. "You okay there, Kacchan?"

Kacchan? Who's that?

"Do you need some water?" He doesn't have to respond as a chilled bottle of water is gently placed in his hand and he's encouraged to take a sip. After a few more sips he back to breathing normally and wipes the tears that escaped his eyes when he was trying to not be a victim of chewing gum. "Death by Hubba Bubba is not the way to go out."

"You're right. The way to go out, is with me at your earliest convenience." And where THE FUCK did that come from? Wasn't he JUST dying not even three minutes ago? He waits for the inevitable rejection line because come on.

When that oh so delectable chuckle leaves leave those sinful looking lips and the most delicious of red dusts those freckled cheeks, Katsuki will swear up and down till the day he actually dies that Izuku was trying to kill him that afternoon. He covers up the almost whimper with a cough.

'Pull your shit TOGETHER, Bakugou! He somehow likes what you're putting down. DO NOT fuck it up right now!' He was mentally screaming at himself but kept a calm, confident smile on his lips. At least that what he thought it was. If you asked Izuku about that afternoon he'll laugh and then tell you that Katsuki looked like he was about to throw up all over him. And every time it comes up, Katsuki denies it with a bright red face.

Izuku just had to bite his lip before he answered huh? Just needed that extra nail in Katsuki's coffin didn't he? "Well I'm not on call tonight? How does that work?" The puppy dog eyes that the boy in front of him gave him was just there to let Katsuki know that he was eternally fucked.

Katsuki looked down to the basket he had gathered and then raised it up to show the greenie. "Katsudon?" He absolutely did not choke on the work and blush ten times harder than he already was.

"That sounds like an amazing was to go out." He booped his nose again after he said it and Katsuki was already trying to plan their wedding and pick out engagement rings out in his head.

To this day he has no idea how the hell he was able to get Izuku to go out with him. He won't even call it divine intervention. He doesn't even call it luck. He just calls it Izuku being entirely too nice to a guy that was about to choke to death on some gum.

Katsuki looks over to the curly green head of hair bouncing across the dance floor at Izuku's mother's wedding with Katsuki's niece, Eri, standing on his toes and just has one thing in mind.

Damn.
