Denki smiled at the simple silver ring on his finger, it still felt so surreal, he kept replaying the moment in his head, smiling brighter every time.

He'd been in Bakugo's room since after dinner, which was relatively normal, what wasn't so normal was how Bakugo was acting, he looked nervous, something he hardly ever was, and Denki had been scared that he was planning on breaking up with him. It made sense, they were about to graduate from U.A. And become pro heroes, as much as he hated it, it would have been perfectly logical for him to end the relationship so he could focus solely on becoming the number one hero.

So it came as a huge surprise when Bakugo leaned over the end of his bed to grab his guitar, and something from his drawer that Denki couldn't see, which he placed behind him. For a while Bakugo didn't do anything, he seemed to be trying to convince himself to play, which was weird in and of itself. Finally, he sighed, "okay, this is gonna be pretty cheesy, so just shut up about it." He took a deep breath and began to play and sing.

Denki was mesmerized the whole time, Bakugo hardly ever sang, especially not in front of anyone, which explains how nervous he was. He couldn't take his eyes off of him, he slowly relaxed throughout the song, and let himself just sing, it was nice.

When he finished, he reached behind himself and held the object in his hand, seeming to contemplate what to say. "You know, when I first met you I thought were just an annoying extra who would never make it as a hero if you couldn't even control your quirk, but you proved me wrong, again and again. Then you started hanging around me, you wouldn't leave me alone, even when I was horrible to you, even after I forced you to use your quirk when we moved into the dorms, which I feel bad about,-"

Denki cut him off, "I mean it was a pretty electric first kiss, the sparks flew." He'd smirked, proud of himself, for the puns. Bakugo rolled his eyes with a smile and went on.

    "-you always stuck around. And without me even realizing it was happening, we started to get close, you were the second person to do that. I still don't know when exactly I started to fall for you, but it was after you got hurt in training and we had that talk." Denki nodded in recognition, "I can, however, pinpoint the exact moment I fully fell in love or at least realized I had: we were studying and you started to fall asleep, I just remember thinking that if you were Kirishima I would be smacking you, but I wasn't. Stupid, I know, but that's when it happened. Then there was the time you managed ten thousand volts without short-circuiting, how you excitedly hopped over to me, grinning ear to ear, telling me how happy you were, you were almost crying with joy, that was the moment I realized I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you."

Denki remembered that day, he also remembered the way Bakugo had kissed him, he should have realized that he was more than just happy for him. He was so focused on reliving the memory that it took him a full ten seconds to process what else Bakugo had said, and by the time he did, the other was already holding out a ring box.

"So, Kaminari Denki, will you marry me?" Bakugo asked, the nerves back in his voice. Denki had stared at the ring, then at the boy holding it.

"I thought you were gonna break up with me." He said simply, still trying to process everything.

"What? Why??" Bakugo asked.

Denki shrugged, "so you could focus on becoming number one."

"I don't want to be number one if I don't have you by my side. It's cheesy, but fuck it, it's true." Denki grinned and leaned over to kiss him. When they broke the kiss Bakugo spoke again, "so is that a yes?"

Denki giggled, "yeah. Of course, I'll marry you!" Bakugo grinned, slipped the ring onto Denki's finger, and kissed him again.

This ended up a lot better than I expected, it's a lot cuter too, overall, I freaking love this!
