Catch Your Breath (BAKUDEKU)

2

Two years later, Katsuki stood at the altar, his heart pounding in his chest as he watched Izuku walk towards him. Izuku looked breathtaking in his suit, his hair styled neatly and his eyes sparkling with happiness. Katsuki could hardly believe that this was actually happening—after all the ups and downs, they were finally here, ready to promise to spend the rest of their lives together.

As Izuku reached his side, Katsuki took his hand, squeezing it reassuringly. "You look incredible," he whispered, leaning in for a quick kiss before the ceremony began.

The officiant cleared her throat, and Katsuki straightened up, trying to compose himself. He couldn't afford to mess this up. As they exchanged vows, Katsuki's eyes never left Izuku's, each word resonating deep within him. This man had become his everything—his rock, his partner in every sense of the word. And now, he was promising to stand by Izuku's side through thick and thin, to love and cherish him until the end of time.

It wasn't until the officiant declared them husband and husband that Katsuki allowed himself to truly relax. A wide grin spread across his face as he lifted Izuku's veil and pressed his lips to his in a searing kiss. Cheers erupted around them as they walked down the aisle hand in hand. Katsuki knew that no matter what challenges life threw their way, they would face them together.

As the reception got underway, Katsuki and Izuku finally managed to escape to a quieter corner of the venue. Their hands were entwined as they sipped champagne, basking in the glow of their newfound marital status. Izuku's cheeks were flushed, his eyes bright with excitement as he leaned against Katsuki, whispering sweet nothings in his ear.

"Katsuki," Izuku murmured, his voice barely audible over the din of laughter and music. "You're fucking hot in that suit."

Katsuki's heart skipped a beat at his words, his arousal stirring as he grinned, leaning down to nuzzle Izuku's neck. "Thanks, Deku," he replied, his voice low and husky. "But you're the one who takes my breath away." He nipped at Izuku's earlobe, eliciting a small gasp from him. "I can't wait to get you out of this suit later," he growled, his hand sliding down to rest on Izuku's hip.

Katsuki's mind was already filled with images of their bodies tangled together, sweaty and spent. He hoped Izuku was ready for what he had planned for the night. The anticipation of claiming him once more and showing him just how much he loved and desired him was overwhelming.

Their moment was interrupted by a loud crash, followed by gasps and laughter from the crowd. Katsuki turned to see Todoroki and some of the other classmates struggling to right an overturned table, a trail of spilled drinks leading back to them. He rolled his eyes, a small smile playing on his lips despite his irritation at being interrupted.

"Duty calls," Katsuki said reluctantly, pressing another kiss to Izuku's lips before pulling away. "I'll be right back."

He strode over to the group, trying to maintain his composure despite the lingering desire. "What the hell are you guys doing?" Katsuki demanded, grabbing a napkin to help clean up the mess.

Todoroki grinned sheepishly, his cheeks a bright red. "Sorry," he said. "We didn't mean to cause trouble."

Katsuki couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head. "You're hopeless," he replied, though there was no malice in his words. It was moments like these that reminded him of their days at U.A., of the camaraderie and friendship that had developed between them all.

As they worked together to set things right, Katsuki glanced back at Izuku, who was watching him with a knowing smile. Izuku understood his need to help, to be the one in control. And in that moment, Katsuki knew that no matter what happened, they would always have each other's backs.

Katsuki made his way back to Izuku, a grin still plastered on his face from their classmates' antics. As he approached, Todoroki raised an eyebrow at him, a smirk playing on his lips. "Everything under control?" he asked, his voice laced with amusement.

Izuku blushed, but he couldn't hide the sparkle in his eyes. "Yeah," Katsuki replied, wrapping an arm around Izuku's waist and pulling him close. "Just making sure everything is perfect for my husband." The word sent a thrill through Katsuki, and he felt Izuku's body stiffen slightly before he relaxed against him. Their classmates erupted into a fit of giggles and cheers, some even making suggestive comments about their wedding night. Katsuki glared at them, his cheeks burning slightly, but he couldn't deny the excitement building in his chest. He loved Izuku more than anything and wanted their first night together as husbands to be unforgettable.

"Alright, alright," Katsuki said gruffly, trying to change the subject. "Let's all enjoy the party before I drag Deku away."

Todoroki laughed, clapping him on the shoulder. "Don't worry," he said. "We won't keep you too long."

As the night wore on, they danced and laughed with friends and family, the love between them palpable in the air. All too soon, it was time for them to leave. As they made their way to the door, Katsuki couldn't help but think about what awaited them in their private suite. His hand tightened around Izuku's as he led him outside, their laughter mingling with the sound of their shoes on the pavement.

The cool night air hit them as they stepped outside, providing some much-needed relief from the heat of the reception hall. They climbed into the backseat of their waiting car, Izuku snuggling up close to Katsuki. Katsuki wrapped his arm around Izuku protectively, pulling him even closer as they began the short drive to their suite. The silence between them was comfortable, filled with the quiet hum of the engine and the occasional burst of laughter from the distant partygoers.

Katsuki couldn't stop thinking about their earlier conversation, about the future they would build together. "Hey," he said, breaking the silence. "Have you ever thought about having kids?"

Izuku looked up at him, surprise etched on his features. "Kids?" he echoed, his voice soft.

"Yeah," Katsuki said, trying to sound nonchalant. "I mean, I know we're both busy with our careers, but... I think it would be amazing to have a family someday."

He felt Izuku's body tense slightly, and his heart rate picked up. Had he said too much? But then, Izuku relaxed against him, a small smile gracing his lips. "Yeah," Izuku said, his voice barely above a whisper. "Me too."

Katsuki's heart swelled with joy, and he leaned down to press a kiss to Izuku's forehead. "We'll make great dads," he said, his voice thick with emotion.

Izuku looked up at him, his eyes shining with happiness. "The best," he replied, his voice full of conviction.

Katsuki couldn't argue with that. As they pulled up to the hotel, he couldn't wait to start their new chapter together, to explore each other's bodies and minds in ways they never had before, and to create memories that would last a lifetime.

As they entered their luxurious suite, the exhaustion of the day seemed to catch up with Izuku. He yawned widely, rubbing at his eyes as he took in their surroundings. "I'm beat," he admitted, letting his head rest against Katsuki's shoulder. Katsuki's heart melted at his admission, and he couldn't help but smile down at him.

"Yeah?" Katsuki said, trying to keep the disappointment out of his voice. He had been hoping for a little more alone time before they called it a night. But seeing how hard Izuku had worked to make their day special, Katsuki couldn't deny him the rest he needed. "Then let's get you to bed, Deku," he replied gently, leading him towards the bedroom.

Katsuki helped Izuku out of his suit jacket, then started unbuttoning his shirt, his fingers brushing against Izuku's smooth skin. Izuku looked up at him, confusion in his eyes. "What are you doing?" he asked, a sleepy smile playing on his lips.

"Helping you get ready for bed," Katsuki replied, his voice low and husky. "You look exhausted." He continued undressing Izuku slowly, savoring every moment, before pulling him down onto the plush mattress. Katsuki stripped off his own clothes and slid in beside him, pulling the covers over them both.

As Katsuki held him close, feeling the steady rise and fall of Izuku's chest, he couldn't help but think about how lucky he was to have him in his life. And as sleep claimed them both, Katsuki knew that tomorrow would bring new adventures, new memories, and new opportunities to show Izuku just how much he meant to him.
