The sound of the door opening and closing followed by the complete lack of footsteps sent a rush down his spine that had him smiling ear to ear. Something was placed on the counter behind him but before he could even look...

"Bwmah."

Izuku grunted as he felt Nejire's face slam into his back, her slender arms shout out and wrapped around his waist, before moving up to his chest. That familiar warmth in his chest filled his heart. That ring on her finger, that pledge to marry her still put a smile on his face. Though Nejire did that often enough on her own.

"Nejire?" He put down the dishes and looked over to see her long blue hair sliding to either side of her back. Her chest and face still pressed into his back. Soft. She was still in her hero uniform. "Welcome back. What are you doing?"

She let out the breath she had been holding and looked at him a giant smile on her face and stars in her eyes. "I'm recharging!"

She buried her head back into his back.

"Oh, then, should I be hugging you?"

"Nah, this is fine. Besides you got soapy hands!" Her hands bounced in front of him as she spoke. Nejire hummed as she squeezed him tighter. Ever since they first started dating years ago, she had never been afraid to display affection, her willingness and eagerness to hug him was just amazing.

"Did you have a rough patrol?"

"Nope! I just missed you." With that, she let go spinning in place and flexing her arms, her hero costume hadn't changed since she graduated, save for how she styled her hair horns. "Nejire is fully charged and ready for cuddling!"

Her nose crinkled and she made a move to sniff her own armpit. Disgust ran across her face and her arms fell to her side. "After I take a bath."

"Haha, sounds good, honey." He turned to look at her as he dried his hands with a cloth. He then saw the item she had brought home. Or rather he also smelt it. Dinner. "Oh, and you got take out? Awesome."

"Right? I figured that with you doing the dishes, we shouldn't cook! Plus now we have more time to cuddle!" She beamed and jumped, her feet staying just a bit to far up off the ground before she crashed back down. "Well I'm going to take a quick shower! Then we can eat!"

Without another word, she fluttered out of their modest kitchen and into their bathroom.

If he hadn't showered earlier he would have been in there with her right now. But, Nejire also didn't invite him and it didn't sound like she wanted to have that kind of night. She's less huggy and more kissy when she wants that.

Humming, he brought their dinner out to the living room and began to set up their quiet night in. Food on the table, pillows fluffed on the couch, the T.V. show they had been watching on pause, and a blanket for them to both snuggle in. It really was just the best way to spend the night.

Well second best way. But that could still happen later.

It took Nejire less than ten minutes to be in and out of the shower, even with her long hair. Her secret was that she dried and styled her hair by sending her quirk through it. It was actually really impressive. She emerged wearing a yellow sweater that was just slightly too big for her so that her hands were hidden in the sleeves, and she had on some cute kitten pajamas he had gotten for her for christmas.

She looked absolutely adorable.

"Izuku!" She half flew, half ran over to him. A flying Nejire tackle to the chest was a daily occurence in his life. Her legs kicked in the air as she buried her face into his chest. "Why do you always smell so good?"

"Because you buy good body wash?" He laughed pulling her into a hug and onto the couch.

Nejire looked up at him with those star filled blue eyes of hers and gave him that soft smile he had fallen in love with time and time again. The peck on the lips she gave would have him smiling for days. "Maybe, but let's eat!"

"Sure."

These small simple nights where they did nothing but eat, cuddle and relax where exactly what they both needed to recharge.

AN: Literally pure fluff. This is a series where I'm going to shamelessly indulge in writing Nejire and Izuku fluff.
