Izuku stared out of the window as he and the Ashido family made their way back to their home. He had never eaten as much as he had today, and it was safe to say that no one ate like the Ashido's. He always thought Mina had a bottomless stomach, but her father was a sight to be held. The feeling of Mina's hand on his own startled him from his thoughts, and he looked over his shoulder at her.
"You okay baby?" She asked softly, rubbing his hand with her thumb.
"Yeah, I'm alright. I'm just tired... it's been a busy day." He replied with a smile, using his free hand to massage his face as he let out a yawn. Mina let out a giggle and wrapped her arms around him, resting her head on his shoulder and letting out a content sigh.
"I love youuuuu." She cooed in his ear, squeezing him tightly. The greenette let out a tired laugh and rested his head on hers, closing his eyes and enjoying the touch of his partner. One of his favourite things about Mina, amongst many, was how she smelled. Her natural smell was pleasant and sweet. Mix that with the strawberry scented shampoo she always uses, and it was like nasal heaven.
"I love you too." He whispered, panting a gentle kiss on her head.
A lot of the time, when Izuku had a moment to himself, he liked to think back on when he and Mina first met, and compare how they were then, to how they were now. It was quite amusing, reminiscing about how anxious and timid he used to be around her. An awful lot had happened since then, and where most couples probably would've struggled or even failed, they had succeeded. Their bond was a strong one as it was, and it would only get stronger.
It was only then Izuku noticed Mina's mother looking at him in the rear-view mirror. Izuku felt his entire body catch fire, and his cheeks began turning a bright shade of red. The Platinum-haired woman giggled, before turning her eyes back to the road. Maybe one day, that timid side of him would begin to fade, at least when around Mina's family.
Finally, the Ashido's residents came into view as they rounded a corner, and a sudden wave of fatigue flooded Izuku's body. The seats of the car they were riding in suddenly felt like the most comfortable bed he'd ever been in. It wasn't even that late into the night yet, and already he was feeling like he'd not slept in days.
"You look really tired." Mina commented with a giggle, stretching and getting off him as Fumika steered the car into the drive and brought it to a stop, pulling up the handbrake and shutting off the engine.
"I am." He responded, before covering his mouth and yawning. "Is it alright if I just go to bed?" He asked her quietly. Mina nodded, before turning to her mother as the family began exiting the car.
"Mum, I think Izuku and I are gonna head to bed. He's basically falling asleep back here." Mina said, craning over the driver's seat. Fumika, after picking up her handbag from the foot-well of the passenger side, looked over her shoulder at Izuku.
"Of course that's okay." She replied with a smile, before opening the drivers-side door and climbing out of the car.
"Come on you. I think it's bed time." Mina giggled as the couple undid their seatbelts and followed Fumika out of the car and towards the front door, strolling inside after her.
Lazily Izuku kicked off his shoes, slowly organised them onto the shoe rack by the front door, then proceeded to follow Mina up the stairs, grabbing his backpack from the place he'd left it when they left.
"Teeth first. I don't want your breath smelling of pizza." She stated with a cheeky giggle, pulling on his arm and leading him to the bathroom.
"Here." She stated, grabbing a green toothbrush from the holder of many on the shelf above the sink. It was still in its wrapper and had 'Midori' written in messy scrawl along the back.
"I brought it especially." Mina beamed, grabbing her own white and yellow one from the holder, along with the toothpaste. Izuku felt quite flattered by the gesture, and a small laugh escaped him as he unwrapped the toothbrush, dropped the wrapping in the bin and joined Mina in cleaning his teeth
They didn't waste any time messing around with water as he expected though, probably because they were both so tired. Today had been a very long day, and recent weeks hadn't offered them masses of sleep. So, the thought of going to bed with no set time to wake up was incredibly satisfying.
"Do you have a pull-out futon for me?" He asked as they replaced their toothbrushes in the holder, left the bathroom, and headed into Mina's room.
"Psht, don't talk crap," Mina laughed, flicking on the light, closing the door and locking it. "You're sleeping in bed with me, duh." She added with a sassy tone, smirking at him as she stretched again.
"I-I am?" Izuku asked, a sudden feeling of heat on his cheeks. "W-Will your parents be okay with that?" He added.
"Yeah." Mina commented carelessly, grabbing the bottom of her shirt and pulling it up and off herself giving Izuku a clear view of her lace crimson bra. His stomach twisted and his cheeks glowed to the same shade as the bra before he quickly looked away.
"M-Mina!" He hissed.
"What? Come on Midori, we've been together for months now, surely you should be comfortable with me like this." She said, sounding almost hurt by his reaction.
"N-No, I am comfortable with you!" He retorted quickly, turning back to her with honesty in his eyes. His confidence faltered, however, when he realised his well endowed, pink-skinned girlfriend has gotten closer.
"I-I just... Are you sure you're okay with letting me see you like this?" He asked, nervously swallowing saliva as he forced his body's immediate reaction to the back of his mind. A small timid grin spread across Mina's face, and she nodded.
"But, I'm not wearing this bra in bed, so could you turn around whilst I take it off?" She asked, twirling her finger at him.
"Oh, yeah..." He stammered, turning back around and looking out of the gap in her curtains. Taking a deep breath, Izuku tried slowly letting his nerves out with a sigh.
Just calm down, Izuku, you've seen her in nothing but a baggy T-shirt and panties before, so why are you reacting like this? You can't keep letting your nerves get the best of you. Just calm down. The greenette told himself, shoving his anxiety to the back of his mind.
"Okay, I'm decent." Mina perked up suddenly. With a little more confidence in him, Izuku turned to look at her. Almost instantly though, the confidence disappeared, and his anxiety thundered back into his mind.
"Whadya think?" She asked, cocking her head curiously. She was dressed in a cropped black T-shirt and skin-tight black shorts that were so skimpy, they might as well have been panties. She still looks incredible
"Y-You look... Good..." He chuckled nervously, looking her over.
"I'm glad you like it." She giggled, stepping towards him and placing her hands on his chest. Slowly she moved her face closer and closer to his, her eyes half-closed in a lusty looking way. Izuku shifted, gritting his teeth and nervously swallowing saliva.
"Now sleep." She, whispered, gently touching her nose against his before grabbing the bottom of his shirt and elegantly pulling it off his body. The suddenness of the cool room startled him a little, and shiver rode down his spine and she threw his shirt into the pile of clothes that were the ones she was wearing.
"Quick, I'm getting cold." She complained, pulling back her duvet and climbing into the bed.
"Do you have any spare pyjama bottoms?" He asked, before looking down at his jeans. "Trousers, preferably." He added with a laugh. "I don't think the skimpy shorts look would work for me..."
"Just wear your boxers Midori, they're basically shorts." She said with a careless shrug. With a sideways nod and a sigh, Izuku unbuttoned his jeans, and pulled off his jeans, exposing his All Might themed boxers. He wished he'd worn some different ones, but at no point did he expect to have Mina see him like this.
He couldn't read his partner's reaction to seeing him in so little. All his scares were on show, and she could see so much of him. He wasn't sure what he was feeling at this point, but the fact she could see every single ugly scar he'd acquired made him feel uncomfortable.
"God, you're hot." She commented with a giggle, crawling from the far side of the bed towards him, propping herself up on her knees and pulling him towards her. Her forcefulness surprised him, and he let out a small yelp as she stared at his body, running her hand down his chest.
She looked like she was in a trance, following the definition of his abs with her finger whilst she slowly scanned over his body, taking in all of its details.
"Do you do that?" Mina asked suddenly, still not looking at him.
"D-Do what...?" He fired back, his whole body stiff as moved her hands gently across his body.
"Memorise my body." She said simply, now following his scars with her finger. It tickled the sensitive skin a little.
"S-Sometimes, yeah. I remember a lot of little details about you." He replied. "Like, there's a little scar on the edge of your right eye, and that big birthmark on your left boob." He said, before realising just how cropped her shirt was. With no bra for support, some under-boob was exposed, and he quickly looked past her and at the wall.
"How'd you know about that? You been pervin' on me?" She asked, frowning up at him with a smirk on her lips.
"I-I-I... N-No! Just, your shirt... I-It's quite short..." He stammered.
"Is it?" She asked, twisting awkwardly to try and see what he was talking about. "Ooooh, you gettin' a bit of under-boob action huh?" She asked with a giggle, before going back to admiring his body.
"I didn't realise how many scars you had." She changed the subject, urging him to turn around with a little push so she could see the scars on his back. There weren't nearly as many on his back, but there still were a few from getting thrown into cars and buildings during the Final Exam.
"Are these from fighting that Muscular dude?" She asked, rubbing her hand tenderly along the scar on his right arm.
"Yeah..." He responded.
"I love all of 'em. I think they're hot." She giggled, before turning him back around and pulling him down to the bed. He barely managed to reach the light switch and turn them off the light as she tugged him down. He squirmed around to try get comfortable, before pulling the duvet up and over the two of them.
As happy as it made him, hearing her be positive about his injuries, it hurt because he knew it was going to hurt her too. He didn't want to worry her, just like his mother, and he didn't want her to see him hurt, but in this line of school and work, remaining uninjured wasn't an easy thing to do.
Izuku couldn't really sympathise with the feeling, because he'd never seen Mina hurt before, and he was hoping it would stay that way. He couldn't imagine what he'd do if she ever did end up as he had after his fight with Muscular.
It was then that the feeling of her hand wandering down his stomach startled him from his thoughts. He swallowed nervously, taking a deep breath as subtly as he could to try and ease his anxiety. It was a feeling he wasn't sure he'd ever get used to, having someone touch him like this.
Then, a sudden pull on the band of his boxers caused him to jump, and recoil from Mina, letting out a small yelp.
"W-W-What are you doing!" He exclaimed, trying to keep his voice down as he sat up. Mina stared at him for a moment, before a smirk came onto her face.
"Jeez, I didn't expect a reaction like that." She giggled, although, from the bright red hue fading onto her cheeks, she was clearly embarrassed.
Did I make you uncomfortable? I'm sorry." She added, much more sincerely.
"N-No, you didn't!" Izuku responded truthfully. "I-I was just... You scared me. I-I wasn't ready for you to..." She started, his voice falling away as he faded into his timid cocoon.
"You're not ready?" She asked softly, cocking her head.
"Would you be?" He quickly retorted with a smile. Mina opened her mouth to say something, but when nothing came to mind, she simply gave him a sideways nod.
"touché..." The pink-haired girl muttered with another giggle. Izuku could feel the awkward air between them getting heavier and heavier, and it was beginning to make him feel uncomfortable. He couldn't just sit here after that. If he was in her position, he probably would have died of embarrassment by now.
They were alone together for the first time in months, and it wasn't often they got to share intimate moments with each other. The opportunity had finally presented itself, and as scary as it was to try and make the first move, he didn't want to forever be scared of his own girlfriend. He wanted to take this chance to kiss her again, and feel her close to him again.
"C-Can I kiss you?" He asked, almost inaudible.
Great! So much for confidence! He yelled at himself. She seemed to make taking control look so easy sometimes.
"Hmm? What was that?" She asked sweetly. Izuku wasn't able to completely take in what she'd said. He wanted to take control this time, and badly. It would probably pleasantly surprise her if he did, even if it was only this once.
Throwing caution to the wind, and suppressing every anxious feeling that was screaming in his mind, the greenette leaned over to Mina and pulled her in to kiss her. He wrapped one arm around her waist, and the other around her neck, and their lips made contact.
Almost instantly, he felt like all his nerves had vanished. Something about her lips tasted so sweet. Then again, that might've just been the toothpaste they used. He held his lips to hers, running his fingers through her hair gently. He could feel her sinking into him, and her arms wrapping themselves around his neck as she kissed him back.
He separated for air, but only for a moment before getting pulled back into the kiss by Mina. Her tongue traced his bottom lip as she pulled him down into the bed, and he allowed her access. The feeling of her tongue on his was amazing; a sensation he could never forget. It was so soft and warm, wrapping itself around his as she pulled him closer, wrapping her leg around him to pull him even closer.
Izuku did his best to manoeuvre his waist away from her. His body was reacting in ways he deeply regretted, not that he could really help it. However, Mina pulled him back into her, the stiffness in his boxers poking her.
His whole body went tense, and he pulled away from her as the anxiety in his stomach fired up again. However, Mina simply let out a quiet giggle, and traced his cheek with her thumb.
"Midori, it's nothing to be embarrassed about, I don't mind." She whispered.
"I-I do mind! I-I promise I didn't want it to do that, but I can't help it!" He stammered, all at once. The pink-skinned girl laughed again, shaking her head and pressing her forehead gently against his.
"I know. I'll take the compliment." She giggled, before pulling him back in to kiss her. He would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying every second of this, but he was so tired, and wasn't sure if his body could handle much more excitement.
"Mina... Sorry, could we sleep?" He asked cautiously. "I-I know it's a damper, but I feel like I'm going to fall asleep right now, and I don't think I'd ever live down that embarrassment." He explained.
"So long as you promise we can carry on in the morning." She teased, leaning in and brushing her nose against his. He felt the butterflies in his stomach reawaken and let out a chuckle.
"Definitely." He replied, kissing her once more, before pulling her in for a cuddle. She rested her head under his, tightening her leg around him and letting out a content sigh.
"I love you." He whispered, lifting his hand and stroking her silky soft locks. He didn't often said 'I love you' first, so tonight would be the start of that.
"Hehe, I love you toooo." Mina giggled, squeezing him in her arms before they settled down for the night. How could he be as lucky as this?
When he woke the next morning, it looked surprisingly early, even though the digital clock on Mina's bedside table said it was '8:21AM'. A clear sign the winter season was approaching.
The lilac-orange sky cast a warm glow through Mina's room, and on top of Izuku, slept the pinkette in question. She was sleeping peacefully on his chest, her quiet breaths filling the silence. She was so unbelievably beautiful. With a small chuckle, Izuku carefully lifted his hand and followed the shape of one of her small horns with his finger. He loved her little physical quirks.
Then, a quiet groan escaped her lips and she squirmed around for a moment, lifting her head to look up at him with tired eyes.
"Mmmh... Midori..." She grumbled, rubbing her eye and yawning. "Are you playing with my horns?" She yawned, stretching before she pulled herself up to his level and straddled his legs as she sat over him.
"Sorry, are they sensitive?" He asked sheepishly.
"Mmh, a bit." She grumbled.
"I've not seen you like this before." She giggled. "It's quite hot, seeing you in my bed in nothing but your boxers." She said with a teasing smirk. The soft grumble of her morning voice made Izuku's stomach twist with butterflies. Something about it was unexplainably attractive.
"I-I've not seen you like this before either. I'll agree, it's hot." He replied, his nerves returning when he saw again that she was in nothing but her shorts and a crop top. The shorts had slipped down her waist a little during their sleep and were exposing the lip of her panties, which made his stomach twist even more.
"Hehehe, is it now?" She giggled, before laying back down on top of him with a long peaceful sigh. "This is the best." She cooed, stretching and wrapping her legs around him.
"Is there anything you wanted to do today? Before we go to mine?" Izuku asked, staring up at the ceiling, watching the dust dancing within the god-ray that was seeping between the ajar curtains.
"Mmh, I dunno... This?" Mina suggested carelessly, tightening her grip around him. Izuku let out a small chuckle in response, sliding his hand up her shirt and rubbing her bareback with his hand. Her skin was literally silky smooth and soft to the touch. Mina copied this action, tracing his stomach with her finger again.
"Hehehe, I love it." She giggled, lifting her head to look up at him. He tried looking down at her, but with the angle he was laying at, all he could see were a few strands of her messy pink hair and her perky yellow horns.
"Check it out." She said, suddenly sitting up. Izuku stared at her with a puzzled expression before she grabbed his hand and forcefully placed it on her stomach.
"Feel!" She commanded. "Make you anxious that your girlfriends got abs too?" She asked teasingly. He was quite shocked at the feeling. They weren't massively defined, but as he gently ran his hand across her stomach, he could feel them under his fingers.
"N-No, it doesn't. I quite like it, actually." Izuku responded with a smile, cocking his head as he took in every curve of her stomach.
"I can see, you're getting pretty touchy." She giggled, causing Izuku to withdraw his hand. "I didn't say you had to stop. It's quite relaxing." She stated, quickly grabbing his hand and planting it back on her stomach.
"Wait, let me lay back down. It's making me feel all sleepy." She yawned, dropping off Izuku and into the bed beside him.
"Comfy?" He asked as she wriggled around a little more.
"Yeah, now I am." She smiled, holding her shirt down so it wouldn't ride up any further, waiting for Izuku to continue rubbing her stomach, which he did.
Watching her goofy expression as he pampered her stomach was more amusing than he'd like to admit, and he did his best not to audibly laugh. However, he was quickly distracted when he felt a vibration on, or rather, in Mina's stomach.
The pink-skinned girl suddenly looked wide awake and pushed Izuku's hand off her, sitting upright with a stark expression. This time Izuku couldn't hold back, and let out a hearty laugh at his girlfriend's expense.
"Do you want to go and make breakfast?" He asked, pushing the covers off himself.
"Y-Yeah... Yeah, let's go do that..." Mina muttered, not looking at him as she hopped out of bed and walked straight out of the room. Izuku smiled after her, allowing himself to stretch before getting up out of her bed.
Retrieving his bag, Izuku removed the clean set of clothes he'd prepared, he stripped out of his boxers and quickly changed into his clean clothing; A black t-shirt, red and black checker shirt, and black jeans. A much more stylish set of apparel than what he normally would wear.
Now changed, the greenette crammed his dirty clothes into his bag, slung it over his shoulder, and started out of Mina's room and down the stairs after her. He quite liked seeing her getting flustered and embarrassed instead of him. It was a surprisingly pleasant change.
He could hear Mina shuffling around in the kitchen, and the clattering of plates and cutlery met his ears as he strolled into the open-plan living room and kitchen.
"You want cereal-?" She asked, looking over her shoulder with a smile.
"Oh, look at yooou." She cooed with a flirty face. The morning sun beaming through the kitchen window almost seemed to make Mina look like she was glowing, her gorgeous smiling face and twinkling eyes dazzling the greenette as he slowly walked over to the dining table.
"You like it?" He asked, smiling back.
"Yeeeeah, Mina likey very much." She replied with a giggle. "So, d'ya want cereal? Ooooor... We've got toast?" She asked, putting the cereal box on the side and pointing towards a bread bin beside the toaster.
"C-Cereal is fine..." Izuku responded, after catching himself checking her out again. He lowered his head a little, trying to make it less obvious that he was looking at her. Humming a little tune to herself, Mina went here and there within the kitchen, swaying her hips to whatever song was stuck in her head.
He found it hard to take his eyes off her vivacious hips, their swaying was somewhat entrancing. She'd gone from barely awake, to bubbly and bouncy in merely a few minutes.
"Ba-ba-baaa!" She sang the stereotypical victorious tune, dancing her way over to him with two bowls in her hand. Izuku went to take the bowl from her, but she quickly withdrew it.
"Ah-ah-ah, kiss first." She said in a teasing tone, leaning down with pierced lips. Izuku couldn't help but laugh, leaning in and pecking her sweetly. The pinkette let out a joyful giggle and set the bowl down on the table in front of him.
"Thanks for the food." Izuku smiled as she sat down opposite him. Porridge with what seemed to be crumbled biscuits on top. Certainly not something Izuku had ever had before, but he trusted his girlfriend's taste. Whether or not he'd ever regret that, however, was another matter entirely.
A/N: Hey everyone! I want to apologise for how long updates are taking. University is quite draining, but I work on this story whenever I get the time to. I've been working on my book quite a bit recently as well.
This chapter might be on the shorter side, but a lot more is going to happen in the next one, I assure you.
