"Of course."

Your voice was soft, Katsuki quickly sitting next to you, he gently hissed at the cold water, but let his feet fully sink in. "You enjoy your birthday?" "I did, it was nice." You looked up, seeing the faint scattering of the stars in the dark sky. The sounds of nature with the hums of the pool set a relaxing mood as you leaned your head on his shoulder.

"We don't use this pool enough."

"Well, maybe if you learned how to swim, we would."

"You're judging your husband for not knowing how to swim?"

"Yes, I am judging you, Katsuki Bakugou, Ground Hero, Best Hero, for not knowing how to swim."

His chuckle was deep, rattling his body to the point you could feel it through your ear.

"When I was tucking Kayoko in, she asked me did I miss my mom."

"Oh... why do you think she asked?"

"I'm not sure, but she said she was happy I was her mommy and... oh, I almost burst into tears in her bed. It was surreal, it makes me think about how real this all is. I'm thirty now, I'm married, and I have three kids. I never thought I'd have all of this."

"Who you telling? My mother used to tell me I'd never find love if I kept my act up. But burning a girl's hair off and making her go bald seemed to work out well in my favor."

"Okay, asshole. You got that pity date because Mina literally begged me to go."

"True, but you still grabbed me up and made me eat lunch with you a couple of days later. Now look, you're my wife and the mother of my children. I think I got the best case scenario out of that one."

You couldn't help but laugh at his words. It was true, your situation could've been a lot different if you had never gone on that first date.

"I agree, being married to you has been the best experience I've ever had, and it's not even over. I do think about it, though, losing you."

"y/n..."

"Can you blame me? I lost my mom, and twenty-four years later, I'm still dealing with that trauma. I want to say that it'll never happen, that I'll have you forever, and we'll grow old. But this hero thing is dangerous."

"I know, and I'm not mad at you for worrying. But I'm careful now, I don't take big risks anymore, I couldn't imagine leaving you and the kids. You all are my top priority, and I'll do everything to stay here with you."

You hummed at his words, his hand grabbing yours and fingers lacing together.

"Do you think any of the kids would be heroes?"

"Kayoko, probably."

"Yeah, most likely. But if my parents had the same job, I'd probably do something different. Those are big shoes to fill."

"As if she isn't the most rambunctious six-year-old we know. If she's got the heart to do it, she'll do it. And if she doesn't, she doesn't. She'll still always be daddy's little girl."

"Yeah, both our girls have your fiery spirit. Kahano's first word was no, so I guess your genes and me being stressed and angry most of that pregnancy didn't help."

"She's already a handful, and she's not even one. I think this is my punishment for being mean to everyone for years. I now have two daughters who act exactly like me. At least my son is calm."

"I don't know how we got lucky with him. He's the sweetest little boy. But maybe the girls will mellow out, and he might be the wild one."

"Or maybe they'll all just become angrier versions of us teenage us."

"Oh, I don't even want to think about raising teenagers. We were terrible teenagers, I hope they stay good and peaceful and give us absolutely no trouble."

There was a moment of silence before the laughter. That was a dream, but both of you know it wouldn't be the reality. Having teenagers meant hormones, puberty, and a bunch of emotions they'd have to deal with. But until then, they'd enjoy the kid, toddler, and baby stage for as long as they could.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"I couldn't imagine my life without you, y/n. You've given me the world, and I can never repay you for it."

"You don't have to, because you gave me a world. By the time I got to UA I felt hopeless, nothing mattered to me, and I just wanted to get through school to try and make something of myself. But you came into my life, albeit a bit rough, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm so happy to share my life with you."

You don't know when the tears started spilling from your eyes, but Katsuki made you look at him and wiped them from your face. His face was soft, a softness only you got to see. No one would ever believe that a hot head like this could be so soft and domesticated, but here he was. He pressed a kiss to your lips, gentle and as a means to calm you down. It worked, and when he pulled away, a smile couldn't help but form on your lips.

"I love you and our little family."
