CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

Izuku

College has started and it's the first day back. Katsuki has fully moved into his apartment and some stuff of mine is already in the cabinets. I've got this whole new flourishing feeling inside of me. Love. It's unexpected, definitely, but feels extremely right.

Being back in my dorm is strange after being home with mom for more than a month, but I won't be here a lot.

I've kept training over summer break so my muscles kept their strength and flexibility. I'm nervous about the nonstop dancing starting again, but I also find comfort in it. It's my passion and dream job, it just takes a lot of energy. Katsuki and I are now juniors in college, so one more year after this one and we're done!

Ochako and I are heading to our first ballet class as we tell each other all about what happened in the last few days when we hadn't seen each other. Her and Kyoka are obsessed witch each other I'm so happy for her, she deserves to be loved as do I.

The minute we're at the bar, we fall back into routine, letting the piano music consume us as we focus on our positions and movements. It is good to be back.

The entire day of classes was exhausting to say the least, I'm for sure going to have to massage my feet after this. I'm sweaty but satisfied. I haven't seen Katsuki, but I think I know where he is. It's 6pm so all classes have ended, but we're both overachievers, staying till we're pleased with the results.

Walking down the hall, faint music is heard and a smile shows on my face. Practice room 6b is in front of me and I don't knock, he probably wouldn't hear it anyway. Oh god I hope it really is him in here, it is their practice room right?

Slightly opening the door and peaking through, I see him. Wearing just a black tank top and cargo pants, he's hitting away on the drums, eyes focused with a frown on his beautiful face. As I walk in closing the door behind me, his eyes shift to my form with a smirk. I put my bag down and lean against the sound-insulating wall, watching him finish.

"Sneaking up on me again, Izuku?" He puts the drumsticks down, raking a hand through sweaty blond spikes. "Not really, just admiring you."  "Sap." He chuckles and I blush as he stands up and walks over to me. 

"How was it to be back?" He's leaning an elbow beside my head, his other hand holding my face, thumb stroking my cheek. "Fine, pretty hard but doable. Yours? Was Kacchan able to keep up with the rest?"

"Ugh shut up." Is what he grins before he kisses me, holding me close. I smile into the kiss, it's strangely comforting to be able to do this. Just kiss and hold each other, being alone together.

"Yuck you're sweaty." I laugh as we pull away and I touch his back. "Says you." I poke him in the side and carefully push him away to escape. 

Picking up my bag, he's behind me and it startles me. His hands are on my hips, slowly moving upwards to my waist. Putting my bag over my shoulder, I stand up straight against him. Leaning my head against his shoulder, his arms wrap around me. "Want to come with me tonight?" His breath is hot, hands stroking the bare skin shown of my short top.

"I can't. It's the first night back. I have to do some unpacking and cleaning." He sighs behind me. "Okay. But if you change your mind, call me and I'll pick you up." I turn in his hold to face him. "What? You'd drive in the night just for me? You're silly."

"I'd do more than that for you, you should know that by now baby." I can't help but observe him, his eyes, his lips, his everything. "Guess I do."   "Good."

We decided to get something to eat together. Walking through the huge halls of the college to get towards the exit, I feel people staring. I don't dare to hold Katsuki's hand, not that we do that anyway.
