Izuku's POV:

While Shoto was talking to his big brother. A guy with red hair and sharp teeth approaches me.

"Can I help you with something?"

"Yeah I seem to be missing a cutey like yourselves number."

A slight burning in my cheeks makes me look away.

"S..sorry but I'm taken. Infact tonight, I was gonna pop the big question."

Instead of what I thought was going to be him pissed at me for rejecting him. He wraps an arm around my shoulders.

"That's awesome  man. Do you have the, you know what on you right now?"

I nod and slightly pull out the box from my pocket.

"I was gonna do it tonight at the concert, but now."

"You can still do it. Me and the guys believe that the show must go on."

"Really?"

"Yeah! My name is Ejirou Kirishima, and I'm the new musician for the group."

"My name is Izuku Midoriya, or Izuku Todoroki soon."

"That means we'll be like family soon."

Bakugou whistles and Kirishima removes his arm off me.

"Sorry gotta go. Boss is calling us back for practice. Oh and don't worry. I'll make sure you get to ask the question in style. So just hold off until I give the signal."

Kirishima winks before running to the tour van. Shoto walks to his car.

"Come on zuzu. We're heading home."

"What about the case?"

"I'm off this one as my brother and his friends are prime suspects until we can clear them."

"What, why!?"

"Standard procedure that's all. A few questions from other officers will clear them in no time."

We get back in the car and head home.  Once there, we start getting ready for tonight.

"So what did you and the red head talk about?"

"Oh n..nothing.  what did you and Touya talk about?"

"N..nothing."

^oh no, is he planning something tonight aswell?^

We walk out of our walking closets to show off what we're wearing tonight.  I picked a light blue button up shirt, with black pants. Shoto came out wearing a black t-shirt with a white unbuttoned vest, and dark blue jeans.

"Ready zuzu?"

I nod yes as we head out the door.

TIME SKIP TO HALFWAY THROUGH CONCERT:

We're in the moshpit singing along to the music. When all of a sudden the lights go out. Kirishima's voice echos all throughout the crowd.

"I here we have the police chief's son and his date in the audience. Come on the stage you two."

I gently take Shoto's hand and walk on stage. A single light comes on above us as I get on one knee with ring in hand.

"Zuzu i- huh"

"Will you be mine forever?"

"Yes, yes a thousand times yes!"

Before I could get up. We were kissing. Then a song I've never heard before starts playing. I knew from the beat, that it was our song. Bakugou begins to harmonize with keigo. Finally putting words to a once spokenless tune.
