Figuring it out [BNHA]

Chapter 5

Summary

Katsuki and Izuku go out on a date.

For the next couple of weeks, he encountered multiple people who laughed at him when they recognized him from the video. Katsuki gritted his teeth and tried to power through this. Just a few more weeks and nobody would remember ...

His heart still felt heavy; he hadn't gotten closer to Izuku, which was frustrating.

"Yo, Eiji ..." He started when he sat in his office, Eijiro visiting him, carrying his youngest child in a carrier on his chest. He was on paternity leave for the moment. "How does dating work?"

"Huh, how does it work?" Eijiro was confused for a moment. The poor guy looked so sleep-deprived; he had eight children by now. They had actually planned to stop at seven, but the latest one had been an accident.

"Yeah, I ... I didn't make any progress at all with Izuku. The time I tried to kiss him, he blocked, and I don't know what to do!" Katsuki sounded desperate.

"Hm, how about you go on dates first, before kissing and all," he shrugged a little helplessly. "To be honest, I don't have much experience either. Mae was the one to initiate stuff like this." He talked about his wife.

"I see ... well, guess it has to be a date then ..."

Great, he had no clues about dates ... What could they do? Would Izuku even say yes? What if he said yes, though? What if he said no? What if he said yes and the date flopped? What if it didn't flop? A thousand questions were on Katsuki's mind when the door opened, and Izuku walked in. He looked like a zombie. "Aaahh, so stressful!" He groaned while getting out of his shoes.

"What happened?" Katsuki asked, while the greenette slouched to the couch and threw himself onto it. Face first into Katsuki's lap. The blond blushed heavily. But he would not complain at all.

"Sometimes people stress even me out. And you know that I like people, yes? But this woman ... I don't know, she was terrifying in her own right. Haven't seen something like that before ..." Sighing, he turned around, placing his head properly in Katsuki's lap.

"I get that. Most people around me irritate me," Katsuki huffed, his fingers stroking through the green curls. Katsuki hesitated; he was sure that it wasn't a good time right now. Izuku was exhausted; that wasn't the best pre-conditions to ask him for a date, right? But maybe Katsuki could give him a massage? Would that help by any chance? His mind drifted away, spiraling down in any possible scenario that could come out of it. Preferably, with him getting pinned down and fucked.

"Kacchan!" Izuku snapped his fingers at him. He sat up and looked at his friend.

Katsuki flinched and blinked. "What?"

"You are spacing out again. What's on your mind?"

"Uh ..." much to his horror, Katsuki realized that he was getting aroused. He wasn't fully hard yet, but close to it. Ah, fuck it. "D-Do you wanna go out with me? Like, on a date? We don't have to go out-out, we can stay here, or I don't know, whatever you like to do."

Izuku stared at him. "Oh, hm," he made, giving Katsuki another heart attack, another rejection? "Okay, sure, we can have a date. But let us stay in. I really don't feel like going out."

"No problem at all! I can cook!" Katsuki couldn't believe it! He had a date with Izuku! He felt great! Overjoyed even!

"Sure, Kacchan, I'm going to shower then," Izuku smiled at him before getting up.

"Yeah, take your time," Katsuki got up as well to head over to the kitchen. His heart jumped around in his chest; he had to cook the best dinner ever!

Eventually, the dinner was cooked, and they were showered. With damp hair, they sat on the couch. The food was on the large couch table in front of them. "Damn, Kacchan, you outdid yourself with that," Izuku stared at everything.
