But right as all the women in the room were about to head straight for Katsuki, far off in the distance–on the other side of the room–Katsuki just happened to see a twinkle of silver. 

When he thought he was seeing things, he squinted his eyes, but surely enough, that silver became more apparent and he recognized it to be silver hair. 

'W-Wait... Is that... Izuku?'


Soon, everyone in the room noticed how the Captain seemed already captivated by someone standing from the other side of the room that they went silent. Everyone turned to see who the blond could be staring at, and no one dared to utter a word as they were all left in awe. 

On the other side of the room stood a woman dressed in a light pink dress with layers of tulle and satin as well as the appearance of flowers and leaves as accents that seemed embroidered on the fabric. Though the dress seems layered of fabric, an hourglass figure could be seen as there were the finer details to be seen on the top of the dress. 

( Note: This is what Izumi was wearing! )

Though it could've been impossible to recognize who this woman was, Katsuki knew right away

Though it could've been impossible to recognize who this woman was, Katsuki knew right away. It wasn't because the woman had silver hair–which Katsuki knew Izuku had used as a color to disguise her hair–that was curled so delicately, or the Emerald green eyes that he could see from such a distance. 

No, it was the very hairpin he'd gifted her that she was wearing that pulled a section of her hair to be held up that he knew it was her.

Seeing the greenette disguised like this and dripping with elegance and refined beauty almost made Katsuki forget to breathe, as he'd never seen her this beautiful. And not only did he feel his heart racing just seeing her, it was clear to everyone else that the Captain of the Todoroki Knights has possibly found his bride just from one glance. 

The King noticed this too, as he happened to get a small glance of Katsuki's face from where he was sitting to see the blond's eyes almost glimmering with delight. And just when he watched the silver haired beauty start to enter the fray and walk right towards him–with such a distance still to take–Katsuki didn't hesitate to do the same.

The second he stepped onto the ballroom floor, it was as if the crowd of guests parted like the strong waves of an ocean to see the blond Captain getting closer and closer to his goal. In each and every step that he got closer to the beauty, Katsuki could hear small whispers that were specifically about the silver haired woman. 

"What Kingdom is she from?" 

"I don't know, could she be from a Kingdom in the East?" 

"Why didn't I think to change my hair to silver?" 

"I know, or wear that shade of pink, genius."
