They let her keep the nightie.

Which was good, she didn't really have pajamas. Well she did, but they were plain. And she. She wanted to uhh. She wanted to uhh, seduce Izuku? Officially. Well not quite seduce, more that she just wanted to see if she could find out if she was in love with him, and if she asked Itsuka or Momo they would say yes, and then Itsuka would hit on her a bit. She asked Mei. Mei just stared at her wondering if she wanted any new babies.

She would ask Izuku, but then that might give him the wrong impression and things could get really bad from there and that would be like asking Jaune for romantic advice and that was just a terrible idea for all parties involved, and if she tried to be coy about it, Izuku seemed like the kind of guy that would think that she had a crush on someone else and then be depressed about it and.

Why was love so complicated?

"Pyrrha?" Izuku asked softly, his wet towel still around his neck, he was out of his hero costume and just standing there, wearing a t-shirt and pajama pants. She remembered the tight dark grey undershirt he wore under his hero costume that showed off his muscles. Sure she'd seen him shirtless at least three times by now during workouts or just on accident but for some reason that one image of him taking just the top of his costume off stuck out in her mind like a sore thumb. "Is everything alright? You seem kinda spacey."

Right. Izuku was dense. Well, not that dense. Okay, he was kind of dense. Maybe? Well it meant she could try to understand her feelings for him safely.

"I'm fine." She was getting good at this Japanese thing. During patrol today she even managed to tell someone that everything would be alright and tell a villain to stop! She still didn't know a lot of what they were saying but she was getting there, a few more weeks and she might be completely fluent. "I'm just thinking about all that happened."

She reached over to the coffee cup and took another sip of it while staring at Izuku. Her bare thighs were exposed and most of her legs were tucked under herself. It wasn't exactly comfortable but it was supposed to be seductive? Wait, she was supposed to stick her chest out more right? "But do you want to watch a movie with me? It could help us uhh, relax. Did I say that right?"

"You did, you're getting really good at talking Pyrrha." Izuku ran his towel through his hair one last time and smiled at her. "And sure! A movie sounds great, should I make some popcorn?"

"Hmm, no, I'll make it." Pyrrha stood, making sure to straighten all the way to her tippy toes and then bounced back down. Was she doing this flirting thing right? Judging by the red on Izuku's face as his eyes flashed down to her legs she was. Well, Itsuka's theory of Izuku being attracted to her was right. But she knew that much. And she knew that she was attracted to him. But, she just wanted to find out what it was like. Was she being weird? She was being weird, wasn't she? "You can uhh pick the movie, I don't know what's good, and there's still a lot of words I don't know."

"Alright," Izuku smiled and grabbed the remote. "I'll see if I can find something good."

"Just make sure it's not All Might related." Pyrrha stuck her tongue out and headed towards the kitchen. Was it wrong for her to be so happy here? This world, while it wasn't perfect, instead of fighting grimm, she was fighting villains - other people - but even then she still got to help people. Helping people was most of what Izuku and her did. It just felt so peaceful. And she was helping to maintain that peace.

"Hey! I'm not that obsessed with him."

"Itsuka told me to ask you about your All Might underwear." She half sung from the kitchen hurrying to make some popcorn for them.

"I don't own those anymore!" Izuku groaned from the living room, she could almost hear him pouting.

Popcorn: Check.

Couch: Check.

Lights: Check.

Both of them clean and fresh from the shower: Check.

A movie that they both might like: Check.

A blanket covering both of their legs: Check.

Romantic atmosphere: Ehhhhhh?

Romantic tension: Check. Big check. All the check.

Her legs were brushing up against Izuku's as they both watched the movie, it was a cute animated film about a dragon or something, she was only vaguely paying attention to it. Mostly she was eating popcorn and slowly scooting closer and closer to Izuku. Their hands touched in the popcorn bowl and she shot her head up to look at Izuku. Their eyes met and she bit her lip. "Uhh, sorry."

"I'm starting to wonder if that's your favorite word." He chuckled and held up popcorn for her.

Would it be too forward for her to just lean forward and take it? Of course it would be! Him feeding her? That would just be, that would be lewd! She grabbed the popcorn from him and ate it with an exaggerated crunch. "Thanks."

"No problem." Izuku relaxed back into the couch. "You umm, seem to be adjusting well Pyrrha. And I'm really happy you're here."

Her cheeks felt hot. "I'm happy I'm here too. I still don't really know how I ended up here. But, I'm, uhh, happy about it." It beat being dead.

"Do you want to go back? To your home that is?" Izuku's voice sounded unsure, shakey, or just fearful. But the look in his eyes that she had learned to read better than the language told her all she needed to know. "Not that you have to, I mean, it's just if you wanted I would help you."

He grabbed her hand, holding it tight.

Pyrrha squeezed back just as tight and took in a small breath. "I like it here. I really do. I don't even know if there is a way back. But. I. I just feel like I have to. I don't want to." She squeezed his hand hard and let out a choked sob. "I'd rather stay here with you. I like this world."

"Sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up." Izuku muttered. "I was just wondering what you were going to do? What your plan was."

"My plan?" she leaned over placing her head on his shoulder and taking in a deep breath. She really didn't want to go back. But she wanted to find out what happened to her friends. She looked up to the T.V., the movie was nearing its end. What was her plan?

Even if she found a way home, could she really leave Izuku behind? It felt so silly. So trite. She was a huntswoman there, but a hero here. She was helping people either way. She had friends there, she had friends here. But, there was no way to even go back.

She could see herself standing between Jaune, him calling her name, and Izuku, him calling her name. She still cared for Jaune, but she also cared for Izuku. She cared for Izuku a lot. But it was impossible to weigh the two, feelings weren't so tangible.

But maybe she'd know with a kiss?

She looked up at Izuku, locking on to his eyes in less than a heartbeat and moving forward, her arm touching the back of the couch trapping him, her knee between his legs and her head drawing closer and closer.

The moments before the kiss seemed to go on for hours. And the kiss itself was a flash of lightning in her mind.

It was impossible not to compare it to her kiss with Jaune, but that one was muddled with deceit, urgency, and panic.

But the kiss with Izuku. It made things clear. Really clear. There was nothing to muddy the waters, her baggage was left at the shores, and she could feel her heart racing with the briefness of their kiss. Her feelings were clear. She wanted to stay here. With Izuku. For as long as she could.

She pulled back just slightly and rested her head against his laughing. "Sorry. I should have asked."

Izuku blinked. She could see his eyes refocusing on hers for a moment. "I was going to ask if you wanted to try and move in with Itsuka and Momo, but uh, that works too."

Happiness and giddiness washed over her and she rolled off of him, half falling onto the couch with laughter, her legs now across his lap. She was so happy right now. It almost felt unfair.

"Ruby Rose." Her heart raced as she looked at the T.V.

XXXX

When Pyrrha's laughter came to a cold stop, Izuku felt his heart drop. Her eyes were locked onto the T.V. and he focused on it as well. It was a preview for some T.V. show called RWBY. Didn't it just say Ruby Rose? Wasn't that one of Pyrrha's friends?

Pyrrha was talking in her old language again, now standing and pointing at the T.V. tears in her eyes, despite the smile she had on moments ago.

Then she appeared on the screen. An exact copy of Pyrrha.

She. She was a T.V. show?

Or was in one?

Izuku swallowed and pulled on Pyrrha's hand.

She looked at him and dabbed a tear from her eyes. "I'm sorry. I just. It's, it's them. It's all of them."

"It looks like its complete. Do you want to watch it?"

Pyrrha sat down next to him. "Is that a good idea?"

"You wanted to find out what happened to them right?"

She nodded her head falling on his chest again. "I just, umm. Okay. Just don't let go."

He didn't.

Not when she kissed someone else. Not when she died.

Not for all ten seasons of a series that he had never heard of before.

AN: *Twitches*
