It's been over a month that Izuku has been staying with Katsuki and everything is going great. The two seem to get closer every day and now the surfing competition Izuku signed up for is only two days away.
He's excited about that, has been out on the water every day practicing often with the watchful eyes of his boyfriend who always make sure he's safe and not getting himself into any trouble.
He was up before the blonde today which is unusual for him since it's Katsuki who usually wakes him first to start the day but he wanted to try and get a full day of practice in and let his his boyfriend sleep in a little.
After he pours himself some orange juice he stands in the livingroom looking at a large saltwater fish tank Katsuki has.
Izuku has always been fascinated by the tropical fish here in Hawaii and watching the brightly colored creatures swim around comfortably in the large beautiful tank is quite relaxing for him.
He's so relaxed in fact he never heard the blonde slip into the room until he feels two strong arms wrap around his waist form behind. He smiles immediately closings his eyes feeling Katsuki place a gentle kiss on his neck.
" Wow, you're up early nerd. I couldn't believe it when I woke up and you weren't in bed. Gotta say it worried me for half a second."
The greenett in his arms laughs softly opening his eyes again.
"I know it's unusual but I wanted to get a full day of surfing in and I wanted to let you sleep a bit longer."
The blonde nods in understanding hugging his boyfriend tighter leaning his temple on Izuku's.
" Still checking out these fish of mine huh?", he chuckles.
Izuku smiles brightly.
" Yes, I love them, you know I was always amazed by the fish around here and you have them right in the livingroom! So cool."
Katsuki laughs at the excitement over such a small thing, something he knows he'll always find endearing.
" Which ones your favorite?", he ask giving a quick kiss to green curls.
Izuku studies the fish in the tank carefully as he thinks about his answer.
" Probably this one.", he says pointing out a jade green and black colored one, with streaks of bright orange on its fins.
" Though it's kinda hard to choose because they all look so cool."
The blonde smiles behind him.
" I bought that shitty fish because the color of it reminded me of you. His damn name is even Deku."
Izuku tilts his head back so he can see his boyfriend.
" Seriously??"
The blonde rolls his eyes with a chuckle.
" Hell yeah seriously. Since that summer I first met you I have never seen a shade of green that could compete with the color of your eyes. As sappy as it fucking sounds it became my favorite color without me even realizing it. I looked for greens in the same shade, have a bunch of jewelry and shit with green stones, shirts with the same green. I wasn't even really aware I was doing it but I definitely always sought out stuff that reminded me of you."
Izuku turns around hugging Katsuki before the blonde can say another word. He sniffles against his boyfriends chest, something that alarms Katsuki when he feels it.
" Deku, hey.. look at me. Are you crying??"
The greenett looks up with glassy emerald eyes and tears down his cheeks. He smiles with a light laugh.
