"Katsuki!" In the silence of the night, Toshiko raising her voice at Katsuki could be heard all around. Said hero was standing away from her, looking around in frustration. "He was right here! He can't get far!" Him not yelling was yet another clear sign of his tiredness. "Katsuki! Stop! Okay. We've been at this for almost 9 hours straight. We're both tired, we're both hungry, and we both need a break. Please, let's just go and find a place to order food and sleep for the night. First thing in the morning we can come back."
Katsuki was about to tell her that they can still catch him if they left now, but looking back at her, he saw how tired she was. She was covering her eyes from stress and she was cut up and bruised from all the fights they failed to win with this villain. She was leaning on the car, probably because she was almost too tired to stand.
Even though he didn't want to, he noticed that looking at her so beaten up and tired, he became aware of the sleep in his eyes, and the pain in his side. "Fine," he said, nudging her off the door, "We can find somewhere to sleep." He opened the driver's door and got in, starting the car and turning on the heater, suddenly aware of how cold it was. Toshiko sighed in relief and got in the passenger's side, buckling up and turning on her seat warmer, sitting up with her legs pulled up and leaning back, looking out the window.
Kat started driving and grabbed her hand and kissed it, then held it between them and activated his quirk a bit, warming up her freezing hand. After a few minutes of driving, they saw a gas station up ahead. Katsuki looked at Toshiko and she looked at him and nodded. "Unless they have a diner nearby." Katsuki shrugged and pulled in. He needed gas anyway. Getting out of the car, he filled up while Toshiko went in and bought snacks.
When she entered the door, the two people in the store looked at her, cut up and in her hero outfit. She waved at them, the worker and one other person filling up. She walked to the snack aisle and got a bag of Cheez-Its for her and spicy chips for Kat. She was going to go get 2 bottles of water when she noticed they had clothing. Not normally what gas stations sold but she'd take it. She grabbed the two drinks of water and walked to the clothes. She looked through them and grabbed one hoodie for her as well as sweatpants, and the same for Katsuki. Going to the front, she bought her things and went out to the car, getting in and opening her chips.
Kat finished paying and got in, took the chips, and started driving. He glanced at the clothes she had bought. "What are those?" He asked, putting another chip in his mouth. "Clothes idiot. It's not like we have any with us and I don't want to sleep in this," she replied, gesturing to her outfit. He rolled his eyes and yawned, grabbing one of the waters and drinking it. "Do you need me to drive?" "What?" he asked, looking at her like she was crazy. "Why the hell would you drive?" "Cus you're tried. Kat, it's probably a few minutes to a motel, I can drive." "Exactly. It's a few minutes, I can drive." "Kat.." "You go to sleep, I can fucking drive." "Katsuki, I can drive." "I said I'm not fucking tired-" he paused to yawn, making Toshiko raise an eyebrow.
"It's like, right there, I can drive my god." Toshiko just rolled her eyes and opened her phone to see what pizza places were nearby. "Pep-" "Extra Peperonni. And peppers, no anchovies cus we're rational people and a quarter Hawaiian." "Hold on hold on, Hawaiian??? I thought you said we're rational people?" "Why? What's wrong with Hawaiian?" "What's wrong with Hawaiian? What's fucking wrong with it is that it has pineapple on it!" "I like Hawaiian!" "Oh my god, I'm engaged to a psychopath." "Katsuki! Have you ever tried it?" "No. But I don't plan on it either." "It's not disgusting! It's pretty good. People don't dislike the taste of pineapple on pizza, they dislike the idea of a sweet fruit on pizza." "This is why you're single." "I'm literally engaged to you." "But you always say that." "to people that are actually single." "Whatever."
The debate paused as Katsuki pulled up to a building with a large sign saying 'MOTEL' in flashing lights. They grabbed their clothes and other things before going into the main room and getting a room. Going up to their room, Toshiko entered the room address and ordered, a pop-up saying their order would arrive in 30 minutes. "I can't believe you like pineapple on pizza," Katsuki said, shaking his head and opening the door to the room, tossing his stuff on the couch. "It's not hard to understand! You've never even tried it! And it's not like it's horrible. It just adds a bit of sweetness and goes back to normal pizza." "Whatever." Toshiko rolled her eyes and grabbed her clothes before going into the bathroom.
Surprisingly, there was stuff to clean herself off in the bathroom. So she took a shower to get the grime, dirt, and blood off her. She wouldn't want to sleep in that anyway. Once she was done, she got dressed, put her hair in her towel, and walked out. She lay on the couch, nudging Katsuki's stuff over to lie down, and yawned, almost falling asleep.
"You gonna shower Mr. Explosion?"
Katsuki scoffed and grabbed his clothing and went into the shower. Toshiko was almost asleep when she heard a knock at their door. She got up and walked over, reluctantly I may add, and looked through the hole. It was their pizza, and the young boy, obviously only old enough to drive, stood nervously at the door, shivering in the cold. Toshiko quickly opened the door and thanked the boy, taking the pizza and giving him his payment, as well as a tip since he had to drive so late and in the cold.
Closing the door, she put the pizza on the small table in the room and opened it. "Well isn't that a sight for sore eyes..." She took a slice of her Hawaiian and sat on the couch to eat it. By the time she finished, Katsuki walked out, drying his hair only for it to spike up when the towel was taken away. He plopped himself right next to her and picked up a slice of his pizza. "I still can't believe-," but before his sentence could finish, Toshiko shoved his pizza into his mouth. "Just eat," she said, picking up another slice.
Once they'd each had at least 2 slices, they got up and got into bed. Toshiko cuddled into the cover to warm up while Bakugou put the pizza in the small fridge. "Still can't believe you like pineapple on your pizza." "Just shut up and go to sleep, Kat." Katsuki got in bed next to Toshiko, pulling her over to him and putting his leg over her, effectively trapping her and warming her up.
She cuddled up closer to him and put her hands on his back under his hoodie. "HOLY FUCK woman! Your hands are freezing." "My entire self is freezing Kat. That shower warmed me up to an extent." Katsuki put one hand on her face and the other on her back, activating his quirk enough to warm her up.
As Toshiko began to warm up, she began to fall asleep. She had already been tired enough to sleep on their way to the motel, but she was even sleeper now, almost fast asleep within seconds. Soon enough, he felt his breath match Toshiko's as he too started falling asleep.
