What's love? [Iidabaku]

How do I say "I love you"? [TI]

[Alright change of plans. One is posted today, Christmas Eve and Christmas! I realized that it'd be better to make another chapter since I didn't want the Christmas Eve Chapter be too long]

Iida's POV:

"....Iida what the FUCK- ARE YOU FUCKING SAYING IT'S STUPID THAT I DID? I MEAN LOOK AT YOU, YOU-" He had fallen completely silent when I placed my hands on his shoulders firmly and slammed him against a nearby wall... Most likely someone's dorm... room lied on the other side. I glanced down at him, narrowing my eyes the slightest. The way he had been rambling was... In it's own way adorable.. Though honestly how does one get so hard from having arms wrapped around their waist? "I'm what...?" I asked lowly. "Iida...?" He said...hesitently by the seems... Why did I pin him to the wall... That's so inclusive... I pulled back letting out a sigh and took off my glasses, rubbing my eyes.

                        "Forget... What I just.. Sorry I wasn't thinking." I said, I hadn't seemed to be using my brain.....

I went onto the roof the 23rd. Sat there silently... I couldn't bare seeing Katsuki right after what I did. So the 23rd is when I waited for him.

And less than ten minutes later... There he was.. "Hey" he said, smiling.
"Hello, Bakugou.." I said, He walked over and we stood there, staring at the sky. It was a magenta almost... Pinks, Neon Purples, Salmons and reds intertwined with oranges and the tanned white clouds. I inhaled heavily, taking in a deep breath of the cool air.

"Iida..."
I heard him say.

"Yes?" I asked, lifting my head and turning it to look at the lovely specimen... I must admit... I didn't know what these feelings were. I knew there was a small piece... Though I need not name it. Katsuki made me fall for him before I even had a clue about it at all... He had made me so confused... I had wondered curiously silently in the back of my mind about what he had done to me emotionally. The feel of feeling safe with someone the yearn... The questions I kept asking myself... 'Katsuki, stop acting that way'.....'You make me feel weird'.....'Bakugo, what're you doing to me...?' Yet I was so oblivious. How was I so dumb..?

"I think I might be losing feelings like you asked.." He said, glancing back at me... My thoughts stopped. Why that is what I wanted yes... It's not like I could state now.... It's not like I could state... 'Wait, I love you.' aloud. I looked away and responded "That's splendid" I fibbed.
He nodded and looked away too. "You must like the sound of that right..? No more annoying blonde boy bugging you and saying how hot you are." He said, from the tone of it he probably rolled his apple colored eyes.

"Why wouldn't I..." I sighed, glancing back at him slowly.

"Everybody decided earlier in the common area that we'd celebrate the holidays here... And then go out for new years... They talked to their parents and stuff.... Are you going to?" He asked... "Sounds... Simple.. But I'll have to contact my Mother first before tomorrow" I stated. He nodded, before he glanced down and kicked some of the snow out the way and then sat down. "Bakugou-" Though like how he had done so many times before today he cut me off, yanking me down into the snow.

"Ah- Katsuki! That's freezing!!?". I exclaimed with a glare. He laughed "Pfft- PLEASE it could be worse" He said, flicking my forehead. I inhaled and smiled. "I suppose you're right... It could.."

The sun was almost completely down. It was already getting dark... I had glanced to the sky again but was met with... A cold packed ball of snow in my face. "BAHAHA-" Katsuki exclaimed quickly getting up and stepping back.

I wiped my face with the arm of my jacket and took my glasses off, slipping my glasses case out and putting them inside... I set it back into my pocket and slowly got up, brushing the snow off with my mittens and pants. "Katsuki.. That was very rude." I stated coldly, glancing to him with... Squinted eyes. I picked up some snow and rolled it into a ball. "Game on..." I said...

We messed around for about an hour... The second time I had gotten out eccentric energy. The last being the day at the lake when we swam...
________________________________
We ended up in my dorm since it was closest to dry off. I rubbed my face. "Don't you ever throw snow at me again..." I state, "Awhh but Iida.. You had funnn" He said, setting his jacket and hat on my chair and then slipping his shirt off. "Towel??" He asked, glancing to me. I bit the inside of my cheek slightly, "Mhm" I said, getting a clean one from my dresser and tossing it to him. "Thanks" he said, catching it and drying his hair off. I rubbed my neck and took my shoes off near my bed.

"Why do you have so many fucking books.. I definitely asked before but like damn.." He said, putting the towel on his shoulders and glancing to the large shelf which held about a hundred in something books... "Well... To study of course-" I start, "Just to study? You gotta have other stuff asides from text books??" He asked.
"Nope, none." I assured. He nodded. "Right..." He said, glancing to my desk. "Heh... The last time I was in here was.... The day I confessed right...?" he asked, sliding his hand acrossed the wooden surface.

"As I recall.. Yes... You kept bugging me all day.... I still haven't had my doorknob replaced.." I sighed. He nodded, "right... Sorry about that..."

"It's in the past, It's fine..." I say.
"Hey so, like.. Since I'm already here... Do you think maybe I could... Stay the night? Like you know, like the night at the concert but no... Stuff like that incident??" He asked.

I was.... Internally panicking... He was shirtless, I was shirtless. Because our shirts were drenched from the melted snow... I sat on the bed. "Of course, why not..?" I said, Tenya Iida... You've been jerking off every night at the thought of Katsuki since the 13th.... and now.. Oh my I'm so incompetent... "Ah great, I call the bed" He hummed, wandering over and flopping down on it, "Damn...it's so soft" he muttered into my pillow...

I turned my head to look at him.... I needed to tell him sooner or later... To tell him I felt something... Because I did want to hold him in my arms... Just to embrace him to sleep nothing dirty included in that.... Just the warmth of him.... I inhale, fidgeting with the bed.. But perhaps he'd deny me like I denied him...

Why was I nervous...?
Better yet.... Why was my heart throbbing.

I felt light headed.

"Katsuki" I said, hesitantly. "Yeahhhh, foureyesss?" He asked, turning over and sitting up. "I.." How could I state that in a place like this...? "I think I like men too..." I said instead. He took a moment to respond... In what felt like six minutes was only thirty seconds. "Ha.. Well... That's great.... Iida... How.....?" He asked with a small nervous like smile.... I could tell he felt... Uncomfortable. Or out of place.... Maybe he was thinking that... He just wasn't good enough... To be loved by me...? Katsuki I do love you.... I don't know how to say it... I don't know how... But...

"Bakugo.. I love you..."
