Ochako Uraraka POV
It was a crisp September day as we rode through a nearby park. The end of our route always brought us here and next to the park were these little shops. We locked up the bikes on a nearby rack and moved through the shops until we spotted the little bakery we recognized as "ours." We sat down after getting a coffee and tea and I also got a sweet pastry. It wasn't often I indulged anymore but I thought I'd need something to fiddle with while I explained the week ahead.
"Well we hit a new PR on that one hill, good job!" Tadashi exclaimed.
"Yeah, as much hero training as I've done you still kick my butt when it comes to biking" I let it be known how much I admired his skill.
My boyfriend wasn't a hero. His quirk wasn't well suited for hero work. He excelled in studies, and I loved that about him. We had been together about 2 years now. With only a minor bump where I told him I needed a break. Well breakup, I wanted to breakup. But that's all in the past. He's a researcher and does amazing things I can't even fathom.
"So this week you remember I'm going to Tokyo, right?" I hesitantly asked.
"Yeah, but you're gunna be great babe, you always are" he responded and grabbed my hand.
"I didn't…look into hotels since the affordable ones are so far away from the event location. But my friend said I could grab a place on their couch" I faked a smile like it was such a normal thing. Hopefully he wouldn't delve deeper.
"Oh, well that was nice of them. Which friend?" he replied.
And there goes that hope.
"Ah…Katsuki. From the UA days, he lives in Tokyo and it's basically him or Aoyama hahah" I laughed off how weird this conversation was getting. They were the only two that I knew lived in Tokyo- downtown at least. Unconsciously I didn't realize I used his first name but hoped that Tadashi only remembered him last name from the months before when I first mentioned him.
"A guy?" he said obviously surprised.
"Yeah but it's not a big deal. You remember when I stayed with Iida last year. It's not super weird. We are all really close from UA." I smiled.
It wasn't a lie. Last year I took 10 days off, and Tsuyu and I traveled to England to see Iida. He had moved there under his families agency which was quickly becoming an international agency, he moved there about 5 or 6 months before our visit. We wanted to help him settle in, plus had never been there either and had a blast! It was not secret either that I indirectly set him up with Camie. I really did like Camie, separate and together with Bakugou. She was so silly and always had my back. When Iida moved to England I told him that Camie had lived there for a while and if he had any questions he could probably message her- if nothing but for good tips to get around. A year later they were now considering getting a flat together- as Londoners call it. It was really sweet, and because me and Bakugo weren't talking at the time, I didn't feel that much guilt in fawning over the very cute development. I did feel bad when Bakugou had finally reached out, I mean he was not in a good relationship and I had a hand in seeing that his ex and first love was happy. I was broken from my tangent of thoughts by Tadashi.
"Well if he's as cool as Iida I guess that's fine. I mean it's work and all.." He said looking directly at me.
"Yeah of course! And I mean he works too so I probably won't even see him that much. Plus it's not like he'll be at the conference either hahaha" I tried to hide how weird this still all was.
And it was true Tadashi actually really did love Iida. Before Iida moved they had met and become really close. They nerded out about everything, it was really cute to see my best guy friend and my (at the time) new boyfriend getting along so well.
We finished up and rode back to his place. He lived with his parents still too, but not for the same reasons as myself- where my parents kinda lived with me. When we met he was at university going for a doctrine and just went too much debt, he left and settle with finding a job with only his bachelor's degree, he was only 2 semesters short of his masters but it wasn't my business to question his decisions. He found a job close to home so I guess he thought it'd be the fastest way to pay down his loans- too bad he also had bad spending habits. His family loved me though, so it wasn't super weird when they found us in a few compromising positions before.
Luckily though no one was home right now. We cuddled up on the couch with some blankets. The fall season just started to get chilly but I always craved heat. As I lay on his chest I could feel his fingers dancing on my back. This was the most comforting feeling in the world to me, in certain spots it sent me chills. Before I knew it things got a little heated and I was straddling him as he lay there with his hand up my shirt unclasping my bra. I went for his shorts as our lips were locked and just as I was untying the knot that kept his shorts in place, we heard the back door knob giggle. I was flushed and immediately created distance between us and rushed to reclasp my bra and I saw his head just fall back with a groan. That was close….
