Neither the chirping of birds or the morning sun wake Katsuki as he only found shade and breezy silence filtering through his waking senses. He groaned and stretched, finding an arm numb for the third or fourth morning in a row and the other sliding against a warm surface. It made his body overheat and the blankets suddenly became too hot.

"Good morning," Izuku's voice greeted, katsuki furrowing his brows at just how loud it was and groaning as he tried to bring his numb arm back, but was blocked. He hears a sigh, warm air traveling up his arm and shoulder before Izuku speaks again, his voice carrying a sultry tone to it.

"Have a good night's rest?" He asks in a way that makes Katsuki question his intention by how rhetorical it sounds. Opening his eyes, Katsuki is immediately greeted by Izukus face less then a finger span away from his own. Green eyes smiled at him as his teeth show, bangs hanging sideways to tickle Katsukis arm as he realizes Izuku's head is lying on top of it, trapped under his neck.

When did he get so close?

"G't off my arm." He grumbles as he wiggles his fingers to get his tendons to move against Izuku's neck. He's too tired to acknowledge the fact a man is currently inches away from him in a bed and under the same covers. But, yesterday he didn't particularly care that they'd even share a single bed for that fact alone; they are both men. It shouldn't matter.

"As soon as you release your hold on my body." Izuku's smile turned mischievous as he finished that sentence, watching as Katsukis other hand went too close and was met with the same warmth it had rubbed upon. Only now, since he was more awake, did he realize that it was skin he was touching, right under Izukus shirt.

His arm retreated back to himself immediately as Izuku began laughing, body tensing as his heart raced in either fear of having done something in his sleep, or embarrassed at the fact Izuku was clearly making fun of him. No two men should be this close...

He groaned as he turned to face the ceiling with a flop, feeling as Izuku finally got up from off of his other arm with his finishing giggles. Katsuki refused to look at him as he threw his good arm over his eyes.

"Are you sure you don't find me tempting~?" Izuku teased, which was unlike him at being so forward... except when it comes to his insistence about being a kind of prostitute because of his comments on the dress he had worn. Katsuki peaked an eye from under his arm and watched Izuku sit with the sheets pooled at his waist, making images pop in his mind at his words that weren't welcome, so he frowned and hid under his arm.

"It would be a cold day in hell before I'd even consider you attractive in my eyes."

"So I am attractive?" Izuku immediately counters, making Katsuki groan. "No, because you said 'in your eyes' so I must be attractive to an outside view!" Izuku shouts with a clear smile from his previous teasing as he shifts in the bed. It dips before it springs back as feet pad away from Katsuki, who finds it appropriate to get up as well, back turned as he puts his boots on first to not walk around the dirty inn floor barefooted. Unlike his roommate who's standing in front of a mirror checking himself over.
