Chapter 20: Amazing

Sunday morning came all too quick for two sleeping teens in the Bakugo residence. Neither wanted to get up and face reality, they preferred pretending nothing had happened, even if it was just for a day, so they silently agreed to leave it for tomorrow.

They were both away and aware they were cuddling but were too warm and cozy to want to pull away.

"Kacchan?" asked Midoriya as he stared at the wall holding in a giggle, Katsuki behind him holding him as if he might disappear. His face was buried in the crook of his neck, and Midoriya was a ticklish boy.

"Mm?" He asked, not really saying any actual words.

"It tickles." He said as he let out the laugh he was holding in. That only made the older male smile as his heart warmed at the sound.

As he pushed his face further into Izuku's neck, he felt the boy squirm a bit lifting his shoulder to try and stop the blond. Izuku kept giggling at what the blond was doing, not wanting it to end. 'I could really get used to this.' Thought Katsuki as he took in a long breath, flooding his senses with the smaller boy's smell.

"You smell nice, Deku." He told the boy. "It's like a pinewood and cinnamon, all in one." He kept inhaling Izuku's scent.

"Kacchan!" he said, now turning around, wanting to face the boy and escape the tickling in his neck. He was blushing like mad, but that didn't matter, right now nothing mattered. They were in their little bubble for today.

"Deku, don't think that by turning around you're getting away." Teased the smirking blond, bringing each hand towards the boys waist to tickle him.

Izuku was going wild with laughter as he felt Katsuki softly digging his fingers into his sides, "Ka-Kacchan! St-Stop it!" he pleaded but failed in his attempt as the older boy continued his tickling.

"No!" stated Katsuki, "This is what you get for being so damn cute." he felt like he was floating, each joyous sound emitted by Izuku pushing him closer to heaven.

"Kacchan thinks I'm cute!" teased Izuku, "Kacchan thinks I'm cute!" he was really enjoying this moment. It had been so long since he and his childhood best friend had shared such a wonderful moment, it was like a blast from the past.

"No, Deku." Spoke Katsuki softly giving Izuku's nose a pinch, "I don't think you're cute. I know you're cute." He sated matter of factly. He felt so good to be able to express these feelings, these thoughts he had been holding for Kami now's how long.

"Wait? You're serious, Kacchan?" asked a very astonished green-haired male. If Kacchan thought he was cute, then that meant, 'Does he like me?' he asked himself waiting for Katsuki to answer his question.

Sighing, not really wanting to bust their little bubble, "Is it alright if we add that to the list of things we need to talk about tomorrow?" he asked afraid he'd be forced to confess today.

Not wanting to pressure his friend into anything, "Alright! Tomorrow it is!" he said, acting all professional, which only made Katsuki laugh and that had Izuku back into a giggle fit.

He loved seeing Kacchan so carefree and happy, it was refreshing. He felt light, as if the slightest breeze would blow him away, but somehow he felt like Kacchan wouldn't let him, and that made him all the happier.

"But to answer your question, I'm always being serious, nerd." He said, bringing Izuku out of his thoughts. "Now, how about I make us some breakfast? He smiled at the boy to his left.

Blushing at how blunt the blond was being, his heart swooned at being considered cute by the one and only Katsuki Bakugo. His stomach rumbled rather loudly before he had any time to say anything.

"I'll take that as a yes." He said as he made his way out of bed. "Come on, I'm gonna need help." He pulled the smaller boy out of bed with him, both already missing the warmth their bodies had shared under the covers.

"But Kacchan! I'm cold." Whined Izuku, as he threw himself back into the bed and hid under the sheets.

Going to his closet, Katsuki pulled out one of his clean hoodies and walked back to the bed only to find a small curled up boy giggling under the sheets, "Nerd, here." He said, trying to pull the sheets off of Midoriya.

Realizing what Katsuki was handing him, he quickly got out of bed happy he'd get to wear one of the boys hoodies. "Thank you Kacchan!" he thanked the older boy, "It's so big and warm." He smiled as he brought his arms towards his chest and squeezed them together.

Looking at the boy, he saw how big it actually was. 'When did I get so tall?' he wondered as he saw how the hoodie draped down almost reaching Midoriya's knees and completely covered his hands.

"You're just small." He said, teasing the boy as he ruffled his soft green locks. "Now, let's go, I'm starving.", and they made their way to the kitchen.

The hours passed and both teens found themselves too engrossed in what they had been doing then the world around them. They both had many missed calls from their friends. They wanted to check up on Midoriya, to see if he was coping with what had happened. They had called back and told them they were alright and that they'd see them on Monday at school.

Little did they know that he was too distracted to even care, too happy to even remember. Izuku also had missed calls from Todoroki, and an inbox full of messages from him.

He read over some of them, angry he still cared enough to look. Most said how sorry he was, that they needed to talk, that he had fucked up and that if he didn't answer he'd come to Bakugo's home to speak to him.

He had to do something about that last message, if he didn't he'd have a huge problem on his hands. He didn't want both teens to fight, he still cared about them both, but he still needed to figure out so many things. He needed his space from Todoroki, and he needed the time he was spending with the blond.

'Should I tell Kacchan?' he wondered, 'What if he gets mad.'

He thought this over for about an hour, deciding that if the blond wanted to keep whatever they were living inside their little bubble alive, that he'd try and help out in a way that benefited them both.

"Kacchan?" he tried calling the boy's attention as they cuddled in bed watching some random Disney movie about another princess stuck in some old ladies tower. 'What is it with princesses needing to be rescued?' he thought as he waited for the blond to answer.

"Mm?" he replied, not usually being one for words.

"So, remember earlier when we went through our phones and had all them missed messages and stuff?" he asked, trying to go as calm as possible about this. Katsuki was like a ticking bomb.

"Yeah, what of it?" he said lifting a brow but not moving from his spot next to the nerd, though his curiosity had been provoked.

"So Todoroki sent me-" he barely got to speak before the blond cut him off pressing their bodies closer together, as if trying to protect him from something. "Todoroki said he'd come here if I didn't answer his messages."

There, he had said it, now he would wait for the screaming that never came.

"What do you wanna do?" he was asked. Yes, asked. Not yelled at but asked.

Hell, he hadn't thought he'd get this far. "Well, I don't really know…" he confessed, unsure of what else to do or say.

"Look, if you want him to come over because you want to speak to him, then fine. But under two conditions." He said as he continued explaining, "One, he doesn't make it past the front gate, and two, I stand at the door and keep an eye on you."

He wasn't letting the boy out of his sight, not now, not after what had happened. The bruise on his face still evident, neither had wanted to mention it. Recognizing it meant reliving it, and Izuku was still scared if he was being honest.

"Well, I kind of wanted to ask you if you could be there with me." He said as he curled up closer to the blond.

"Of course I'll be there with you, ya nerd." He said as he played with the boys green locks, loving how they would slip around his fingers. "Now, if you don't want to see him, then he can come, and I will in the politest of manners tell him to leave."

He could imagine it, Kacchan being polite to Todoroki. Hell would freeze over twice and pigs would learn how to fly and circumnavigate the globe before that happened.

"I think I'll stick to the first option Kacchan." He said laughing at his thoughts.

Loving the way he laughed, he couldn't help but wonder what was so funny, "What are you laughing at?" he asked as he poked Izuku's nose, enjoying how it smooshed under his finger.

"You." Answered Izuku, shielding his sides, hoping the blond wouldn't tickle him. "I just can't imagine you being polite to Todoroki."

"Yeah, you're right. I was just going to blow his face into the concrete." He confessed, smiling at the lovely image he was picturing.

Katsuki being the curious bug he was, had been wondering all day about the relationship between Deku and the icyhot bastard, and he wanted to ask, he really wanted to ask.

"Deku, when'd you and that bastard start dating?" he assumed they were dating, considering Todoroki had called Deku his boyfriend last night.

Not really minding the name calling or expecting the question, "About two months ago Kacchan." He told the blond. He knew the blond would ask; he just didn't think it be so soon.

"And do you...you know, plan on staying with him?" he said. He didn't want to hear a yes, he'd fight the boy on this even if it angered him, but he wouldn't allow Midoriya to be subjected to something like that again.

He'd caused Midoriya so much pain most of their lives, the boy didn't need to go through anymore, it would crush him.

"No Kacchan, I'm not willing to feel like that ever again." He confessed. Then, in an instant, his chest felt tight and his mind was flooded of the night before. How Todoroki had struck him, threatened him and later spilled his secrets for all to hear, for Kacchan to hear.

Katsuki felt the boy he was holding begin to shake, and soon he heard soft sobs coming from Midoriya. 'Shit!' he thought, 'Me and my stupid fucking mouth.' He blamed himself.

He quickly turned the boy around and pressed him into his chest, "Shh. It's going to be ok." He promised, "I'm here, I'm not going anywhere."

Kami, he and Todoroki had messed up bad with this boy. He was literally the sweetest fucking person he'd ever met, a blessing from above, and he'd gone and destroyed him, shattered him.

He knew he had a lot of ground to cover if he ever wanted to make it up to the boy, but he'd give it his all and much more. If he'd learned anything at school it's to go beyond, 'Plus Ultra.' He thought.

He noticed how the boy in his arms had stopped crying. Wanting to make sure he was alright, "Deku?" he asked.

As the small boy lifted his gaze, Katsuki looked into his eyes. He was completely lost in the depth they held, so much emotion was held in this small boy, bottled up ready to explode. He'd never been so mesmerized by such a unique beauty.

He explored the boy's face, noticing a few small wrinkles here and there. He counted as many freckles as possible, losing track after reaching 40. He moved onto the small perky nose that adorned the smaller boy's cute features.

Warning: Start Soft Smut

At last his eyes landed on those soft pink lips, he took one look at them and couldn't hold back anymore. He tilted Midoriya's head up a few inches and dived in.

Izuku's heart beat faster and faster as he noticed Katsuki's milky tan face come down towards his. He knew that the moment their lips made contact the world disappear. Before he had time to retreat from his thoughts, Katsuki's arms were pulling him closer. He felt a tinge of helplessness as their lips collided.

He wanted to think about the consequences of his action, but all be damned, he wanted this. Izuku could feel the blond moving his warm lips against his, instigating him to react. He immediately followed and let his lips meld with the others as they danced around each other.

He could feel the blond's breathing hitch and speed up, but he could also make out his beating heart in his ears. Soon he was parting his lips allowing the older teen to savor his mouth. Every little bit was explored, Katsuki's tongue turned and twisted as it swept over his teeth, his inner cheeks and his own tongue. At some point he felt it trying to reach farther in.

His body was responding like never before, he could feel it heat up as they picked up the pace. He began pushing back with his own tongue, fighting for a chance to taste the other. He was granted entrance an began savoring the boy, that caramel flavor that grazed his taste buds had him wanting more.

Katsuki took one of his hands and combed it through green locks as he pulled Izuku's head farther back, slightly exposing his neck. He took this chance and traced small but wanton kisses on the boys milky white skin. He dragged the tip of his tongue across his neck reaching the bottom of his earlobe. He began softly nibbling on it, a salty taste on dancing on his tongue.

Izuku let out a rather loud moan as he brought a hand up and placed it behind the blond's neck. The kissing on his ear was riling him up, heating his loins, making him squirm. Soon, he pulled Katsuki back into a kiss.

They pushed their bodies flushed against each other, relishing in the warmth that spread throughout them. Hands were soon felt roaming each other's bodies as their lips danced. Back and forth they went, lifting, pushing, pulling trying to make the other's mouth submit.

One of Katsuki's hands had made its way to Izuku's waist, and he squeezed. He was rewarded with an oh so sweet sound elicited by the boy in his arms. He took this opportunity to devour the boys mouth once again. He licked and dug his way around Izuku's mouth. He was going crazy; his mind was fogged with lust. Never had he imagined the boy would taste so damn good.

Izuku wasn't doing any better himself, he was a squirming mess as he let the blond take control. He could only moan and try to kiss back as he was pushed onto the mattress and Katsuki leaned over him, one arm still wrapped around his neck.

They needed to stop, things were getting out of hand, but it felt so damn good, and it scared them shitless that they wanted this.

Izuku placed a hand on the older teens chest and gave a soft push as their kiss continued. Katsuki came to an agonizing stop and pulled away mere centimeters. They could feel the other's breath ghosting over their lips, a small trail of saliva connecting their lips, and they could feel their frantic hearts trying to outdo the other, pounding their way out of the bone prison that confined them.

"That was…" whispered Katsuki, trying to catch his breath, still leaning over the other boy.

"Yeah…" he got from the smaller teen. "Amazing."

Warning: End Soft Smut

As Izuku waited for his heart to calm, he soon came to a revelation. He'd never felt something so intense and gratifying in his life. Never before, had a kissed stirred something in him to the point of leaving him a squirming, breathless mess. Never before, not even with Todoroki.

At some point he thought he'd feel guiltier about what they did, but oddly enough, he wasn't bothered at all. He had just shared his kiss with his childhood best friend, and that felt more than right, it felt meant to be.
