For almost three days, Tomura worked nonstop. He napped at his desk or in the chair in the corner but he just couldn't go home. By the fourth day, Mei made him go home. He locked himself in his apartment. He didn't want to talk to anyone and Izuku was giving him his space. He barely asked Tomura a question and he accidentally decayed his pencil.

So- he left him alone.

He hadn't expected to see Dabi but it was what he got for going out at night. He knew it was going to happen. Did he want that to happen? Did he want to see after all this time? Tomura chewed his lips thinking. What was he going to do now? He didn't want to even tell Izuku that he saw him...

What would Izuku say?

"Are you just going to mope around?" Mei asked grabbing her drink.

Izuku stirred his alcoholic drink with his straw.

"I don't know Mei. I feel... I feel like he saw Dabi already."

She blinked.

"Wh-what?"

"I'm not saying anything happened with them... I feel like he saw him and now he's being flaky."

Mei stared down at her steak.

"I'm sorry..."

He looked at her a little surprised.

"Why are you sorry?" Izuku asked, "You didn't tell him to go look for the guy."

"No, but I went after him in his workplace and told him to apologize to you. I feel like I gave him the push to be with you."

Izuku looked down at his plate.

"Don't worry about it... I'll just... drink a little bit tonight and sleep on it. I'm not a child..."

Izuku locked his apartment door and flopped down on his pull out bed. He had barely touched his new one. The two of them seemed to really like the pull out bed for some odd reason. He laid there staring at the ceiling with his mind rather blurry. He had more to drink than he wanted but there was no stopping him once they started talking about Dabi and Tomura.

He slung his arm over his eyes as they started to sting with tears. Maybe this whole was stupid. Maybe he shouldn't have went after Tomura the night he told him no to an interview. Making himself open to someone after Katsuki might've been a big mistake after all. He didn't think this through. Why the hell was he so drawn to someone who didn't even want to be around him in the first place.

Izuku rolled over and started crying into his pillow. He was so tired and all he's done was worry. Maybe he just to sleep and go talk to his ex villain boyfriend tomorrow. Mei made Tomura take three days off in a row to take a good break. He couldn't blame anyone for a hobby he loved and now it was ruined. His love for the hero life and dream...

Ochako.

She was probably still waiting for an answer. How could he give her one? How could he say anything to her? She didn't know Izuku all that well but all he think was her telling him 'I told you so.' Who wouldn't tell him something like that?

I just need to sleep it off. SLEEP IT OFF IZUKU.

He rolled over and closed his eyes tight.

He did need to sleep.

"You sure you aren't just impulse buying because you're down?" Mei asked.

Izuku sighed into the phone.

"I'm sure. I've been wanting one for a while anyways."

"Have you even shopped around first?"

"Yes Mom. I've been looking for a while now. I can't keep... borrowing."

"Whatever fool. You've been saving that money up for a while. I didn't expect you to blow on something like that."

Izuku frowned as he pushed open the glass door to the dealership.

"Are you doing this because you want too or you trying to impress your boyfriend?"

"I want to take him on a trip... To get a away for day and night."

Mei hummed.

"I suppose that might help you some. I was thinking the three of us needed a break anyways. I cancelled on everyone for this week and told them to call back in two weeks. Gonna have some stuff done to the shop while I can."

"Sounds good."

"Izuku."

"Yea?"

"Be careful... Dabi has a very... strong quirk."

In no way was she saying he couldn't fight... It just would be the fact he wouldn't come out of it alive.

"I know... Bye Mei. Love you."

"Love you too."

Izuku knocked on Tomura's door. His poor heart was thump against his ribs hard. This could be the beginning of a wonderful and short vacation or the end of their relationship. It was hard to tell. The big blow out with Katsuki was enough to send him in a depression and hate himself for even being alive. He closed his eyes as the apartment door swung open.

"Izuku-

The quirkless man tackled him and started bawling. He buried his face into his chest.

"Who hurt you?! I will kill them-

"Don't leave me!"

Tomura's jaw hung open.

"Wh-what?"

"Don't leave me ok? Don't leave me for Dabi!"

The ex villain was stunned.

"Where did that come from?"

Izuku just started crying harder. Tomura kicked the door shut just in case someone came by and saw them.

"Please don't cry."

In a way, Tomura saw himself all over again though... his outburst was a lot worse and he decayed a lot of buildings and a couple cars. He had cried for hours onto days about Toga and Dabi. To have that trust broken... It wasn't something to get over easily. Why did he cry about it though- he had no idea. It wasn't like losing Dabi was much of a loss... right?

"Where did this come from?"

"I just... I was worried. You've been a lot more moddy lately and I felt like something was wrong."

He wiped his nose on Tomura's shirt.

"Can we go on a vacation?" Izuku asked with is voice shaking.

"A vacation? I guess."

The two of them laid there on the floor for a little while for Izuku to calm down.

"Soooo... Mei is letting you have the car and closing the shop down?" the ex villain asked.

"I bought me something earlier... so pack light."

Tomura arched an eyebrow at him but didn't say anything.

Once they got to the parking lot, the ex villain saw the orange and black motorcycle. He turned to look at Izuku who grinned big. Izuku started loading everything on it as quickly as he could. Tomura ran his fingers over the seat but it wasn't like he could feel anything. It looked really nice. He was just so surprised Izuku actually got one of his own...

"It is yours right?"

He laughed.

"Yea, it's actually mine. You wanna drive?"

"Hell yea I do!"

Being out on the highway riding that motorcycle made Tomura feel free once again. He had someone he cared about him clinging to him and he felt like he never wanted to return to that city. He could just keep driving. Dabi would never find him that way, right? Maybe they could leave the country too? He would've loved for Mei to go with them but her working another shop somewhere would attach Dabi back to them.

"Let's stop for dinner!" Izuku called.

"Where you want to stop?!"

"The first place that comes up!"

They pulled off the highway to a small seafood buffet. It was a lot more expensive than Tomura would have even thought. He cringed at the price and the small wad of cash his boyfriend handed off to the hostess. They ended up eating three and half plates each. The two of them didn't even want to move afterwards.

"That was so good! I haven't eaten that much in a long time!" Izuku said.

"I don't think I ever ate that much stuff ever in my life."

"So, are you ready to keep going?"

Tomura nodded.

"Where are we going exactly?"

"The beach."

The ex villain scratched his head.

"I don't think I remember going to one."

"What?"

"I can't believe that!"

"Sorry, when I was trying to take over the world, I really didn't think about giving everyone a vacation to the beach."

Izuku grinned, "That would be one hell of a picture."

"It would."

Izuku drove this time. It gave him time to think but heart renching things continued to cross his mind. In a way, he felt like this would be the last time they had anything good between them. It made him almost sick like his stomach was in knots. This right here, meant more to him than his relationship with Katsuki.

"Hey!"

Tomura leaned in closer to him.

"We should go to the beach tonight!"

"Really? At night?!"

"Yea!"

"Let's get our hotel first then!"

After four hours of driving, it was about evening time when they reached the hotel. Izuku went inside and got their room. Tomura parked the motorcycle and they dropped everything in their room. It had a giant king sized bed with bright blue walls. It was nice and cool. Izuku started digging through his bag and tossed Tomura a pair of bright orange swimming trunks. He pulled out a pair of bright red almost magenta for himself.

"Really? Bright orange?"

"It'll look good on you!"

Tomura sighed as he pulled off his clothes top change into his trunks.

Unreal... just fucking unreal.

"Alright, let's go!"

The beach was a ten minute walk from their hotel room. The sun was finally gone and a lot more stars were showing up in the sky now. It was really pretty. The two of them held hands, walking along the shore. The water was cooler than Izuku thought it would be but Tomura didn't seem to mind. He wiggled his toes in the wet sand, letting his feet sink in.

"You're like a kid sometimes," Izuku said fondly.

Tomura looked at him.

"Why?"

"Just because. Not in a bad way though."

Tomura stared down at the salt water as it covered his feet.

"Going and having fun wasn't part of his plan after all. I'm glad we got to do this together."

"Want to do it every year?" Izuku asked.

"Sure, why not?"

They swam some and watched as crabs walked around on the beaches under the moonlight. It certainly was a great date night. The two of them stayed for some time until people started gathering on the beach for parties and get togethers. Once inside the room, Izuku pulled Tomura into the bathroom for a shower.

Izuku used his hands to wash Tomura's back.

"I'm so tired. I hadn't driven like that in such a long time."

"I miss driving recklessly. GTA just doesn't do it."

The emerald haired man laughed.

"Maybe one day we can do it. There's plenty of places to do certain things if you have the kind of money."

Tomura wrinkled his nose.

"Ugh, normal life is terrible sometimes."

"Coming from the guy who didn't wanna borrow a motorcycle with me."

The ex villain turned around to let the water wash over his back.

"I love you."

Izuku stared at him.

"You really don't tell me that that often."

"I don't. I... I just want to say something."

Tomura scratched his head.

"I'm not perfect and it's safe to say my past is starting to catch up with me. I'm sorry for that. Of course, I think you knew that would happen at some point but... I don't know what will happen if you continue to stay with me. Anything can happen and it might put you and Mei in danger. Maybe even at some point I may have to run off-

Izuku placed a finger on his lips.

"It'll be ok."

Izuku wrapped his arms around his shoulders and pulled him in for a kiss.

"It's ok."
