From Despair to Delight (BakuDeku)-(KiriDeku)

---------- 59 ----------

The happy group of ten adults and one baby spent the next hour visiting, discussing what had been going on in their lives and so on. They ate Inko's delicious food, and sweets. It was now six thirty and Toshinori came out holding the cake, he sat it on the table in front of Izuku. The group sang Happy Birthday and Izuku blew out the twenty five candles his mother insisted on placing. The cake was cut and served with ice cream by Inko. Izuku even sneaked a little ice cream to baby Yami without his parents knowing.

Himiko got a notification on her phone, after looking at it she whispered to Inko then headed inside. "Alright time for presents, it's getting late." Inko called out. Yami had fallen asleep in Izuku's arms and he passed the child off to his mother. Inko went to the gift table and grabbed a gift, handing it to her son. Izuku ripped the pretty green wrapping paper off the box, Inside was a smaller black velvet box. Izuku lifted the lid of the box, but was stopped by Himiko's return with her laptop. The blond set the portable computer on the table and Izuku was met with his three missing friends and boyfriend. Tears welled in Izuku's eyes and everyone could see them. "Ah ah ah nun of that Izu. we don't have a lot of time, we just wanted to watch you open your gifts before we have to perform." Mina hollered through the screen. "Happy Birthday baby, I'm sorry I can't be there with you. Just know I love you, I'm always thinking of you and we'll talk later after the show." Eijiro said before blowing Izuku a kiss. The green haired man caught it and placed it on his lips, wiped the tears from his eyes and went back to opening his gifts.

Izuku opened the lid of the black velvet box he held to reveal a silver rose pendant attached to a silver chain. He thought it was beautiful. "Oh! Thank you mom, dad, It's beautiful." Izuku exclaimed. "Happy Birthday baby, I love you." Inko said, then hugged her son. "I'm glad you like it Kido." Toshinori spoke ruffling Izuku's curls. The next gift was from his brother Shoto and best friend Hitoshi. It was a diamond encrusted watch with matching bracelets to go with it. Tenya and Ochaco's gift was a bracelet with pink jewels, and finally the gift from Tsu, Yami, and Fumikage was a leather Dior backpack bag. Izuku thanked and hugged each of them, telling them how much he loved the gifts.

Now it was time for all the other gifts, Himiko handed her friend a small box. "This one is from me, Izu." Himiko told him. Izuku unwrapped the gift and then opened the box. Inside were two sets of jewelry, one was a black gummy bear necklace and matching earrings, and the other was the same, just multi-colored. Izuku thought they were so cute and he expressed that to the blond hugging her. "This is from Kyoka and Denki. That's where I was all day. Fetching these for them." The blond explained as she handed the gift to Izuku. He opened it quickly. The blond man and purple-haired woman had moved to the front of the group on the computer screen. Izuku opened the box and found a pair of diamond and emerald earrings in the shape of flowers. Izuku gasped. "They're gorgeous, thank you so much guys." Izuku gushed to the screen. "Izuku, Denki and I just wanted you to know that we were sorry about the whole tour thing. I was being a bitch and I'm sorry." the purple haired woman said, looking away from the screen. "We love you and Happy Birthday Izubro." Denki said, then they moved back. Mina was hogging the screen now. "Baby, I love you, and thanks for doing all the stuff we asked." Mina spoke to Himiko, causing the blond to blush. "I miss you, and I love you too Mina." Himiko said. "Ok now get to opening my present Izu." the pink headed woman demanded. Izuku chuckled. Himiko handed him a bag this time, he pulled the tissue paper out and found a small box along with a pink sweater. He pulled them from the bag, the sweeter had peaches, the word Pocky and pocky stuck on it. Izuku loved it even if he wasn't a big fan of pink. Inside the small box was a set of rings that said best bitches on them. Mina explained they were best friend rings for herself and Izuku. He was to hold on to the second one until she returned. Again there were thank you and birthday wishes exchanged. Izuku's parents and friends just sat back and watched.

Finally Mina moved out of the way so that Eijiro could sit in front of the screen. "You look beautiful as always, Izzy. God, I miss you so damn much. I've been dreaming about you every night." Eijiro spoke in a loving voice. "I miss you too, so much, Eiji. I don't know If I can handle another two and a half months." Izuku said sadly. "Me either but, well just have to. Go ahead and open your gift." the red head spoke softly. Izuku took the small box from Himiko, and carefully opened it. Inside was a necklace with two hearts intertwined, one was white the other black.

 It was exquisite, and Izuku loved it. "Oh Eiji, I love it." Izuku said, pulling the necklace from the box and bringing it to his neck. The green eyed man had tears in his eyes again, and he hooked the clasp around his neck. "I'm glad. I don't know why but when I saw it I just thought of you. I love you baby, Happy Birthday." Eijiro spoke through the screen. Izuku was now crying, fat tears slipping down his cheeks. "Hey don't cry my precious one. I'll be home before you know it." Eijiro said, wishing he could reach through the screen and wipe the tears from the man he loved.

Just then Mina returned. "Hey I hate to do this but we need to get in place." the pink haired woman said as she placed a comforting hand on her redhead friend who looked as if he was about to cry as well. "Izu, we got to go. We love you. Bye." Mina said, pulling Eijiro away from the screen. "I love you too, Bye." Izuku yelled through his tears. The call ended and the screen went black. Everyone was now crowded around Izuku doing their best to comfort him. "Thanks everybody. I'm ok, I just really miss him. Plus I'm sure the hormones aren't helping." Izuku stated as he wiped his eyes.

Not too long after that everyone had said their goodbyes and the house now held only Izuku, Himiko, and his parents. "We should get this cleared away. I'm kinda tired." Izuku spoke. "Don't you worry about that. You just go lay down. Your father and I will clear up before we head home." Inko told her son. The green haired man was going to argue but he was just too tired from the day. "I'll make sure all your gifts make it into your room." Himiko told him, she then hugged him, said good night and ushered him toward the stairs. Izuku sighed and slowly made his way to his room, he changed into some pajamas and flopped down on his bed. He was asleep in a matter of minutes. All in all the day had gone better than the green eyed male had expected.
