XXVIII: The Future

XXVIII: The Future

Third POV

Izuku woke up much later than expected.

And in pain too.

Though he caused a lot of issues, Katsuki was right. The nursery floor wasn't very comfortable in the long run.

He rolled over, lifting his head slightly to see Akiko who was already up and had rolled herself into an upright position, staring down through the netting at her dam.

A gummy smile on her face.

The pain felt like it had lessen at the sight of the growing pup.

That's when it hit Izuku.

It was August already.

Akiko's birthday would be coming up in a few weeks.

His baby would be turning one.

"And after all this chaos." Izuku murmured under his breath, gently rising from the floor and brushing himself down.

Scooping little Akiko from her bed, he went to go get the both of them ready for the day ahead.

Placing Akiko in a plain pastel pink shirt sleeved top with a giant strawberry embroidered on the front, a washed denim two-tiered ruffle skirt with a matching pink bow acting as a belt. On her feet were small white ankle socks while her hair was sectioned into fours and small pink clips kept her front bangs parted.

As for Izuku, he simply put on a white Zo Ivory off shoulder sweater top and a Vicpod reversible waistband shorts.

After adjusting himself in the mirror, Izuku's gaze panned back to Akiko who was far more bubbly than when she originally woke up.

The little girl smiled at herself in the mirror, with her little fingers reaching out for Izuku's top, merely babbling.

"Aw Ba-! Baa-ba-!" Her voice echoed in the room, her little hands flailing about, "Mm-mama-!"

Picking her up and placing her on his waist, Izuku finally found his nerves to just head downstairs to find some breakfast.

Though, his plans were somewhat thwarted when he opened the door to see Kirishima who was just about to knock.

"Oh, glad to see you're awake," Kirishima grinned, his gaze panning down to Akiko who was still in her own world, babbling, "Glad to see she's lively as well."

Izuku gave him an awkward nod, struggling to maintain eye contact, "I was about to head downstairs..."

"Perhaps we should walk and talk?"

Kirishima nodded, stepping aside for Akiko and Izuku to exit comfortably as they began heading for the staircase.

Passing the primary bedroom, Izuku found himself slightly tensing up, wishing Katsuki wouldn't suddenly pop out.

"You look nervous," Kirishima murmured, "Don't worry, Bakugo went out to the company for an important security meeting, he'll be back tonight."
