Someone Else's Hero (KiriBaku)

Day 4: Shopping for/Wrapping gifts

Kirishima woke up to soft snoring, his blonde boyfriend cuddled into his chest. As each day passed by, the dorms got colder and colder. Everyone was beginning to realize it was finally winter. It wasn't like Kirishima or Bakugou were mad, it just meant more cuddles, blankets, and the blonde stealing all of Kirishima's warm fuzzy sweaters. Secretly, Kirishima loved seeing the slightly smaller blonde flopping around the end of the sweater sleeves. Bakugou was just too cute like that, and Kirishima sometimes couldn't take it. The blonde was too cute.

"Ei-jirou? M' cold, come er'." Bakugou's voice was sleepy, making him seem calm, which he probably was. Kirishima smiled, tightening his arms around the blonde's waist.

"We've gotta go get gifts today, babe." Kirishima let the name slip, just this once, hoping it didn't result in his death. Suddenly, Bakugou pushed closer to Kirishima, letting out a huff.

"D-don't call me that i-in public dammit." Bakugou muttered, making the redhead laugh. Ah, how did he get so lucky.

"We aren't in public, so it's okay now, right?" Kirishima muttered, getting a nod from his boyfriend. The redhead didn't feel a need to say anything more, kissing the blonde softly on the head before prying Bakugou off him to stand up.

"EIJIROU GET ME A SWEATER IT'S COLD AS FUCK!" The blonde screamed, making Kirishima giggle as he ran to his and Bakugou's shared closet. As Kirishima was looking through all the sweaters, Kirishima realized that since last winter, he'd gotten a new hoodie. It was large, extremely puffy and red. Kirishima loved it, but it was little big for him to wear in class. Maybe...Bakugou would wear it? Throwing the blonde the sweater, Kirishima tore his own clothes off to get dressed quickly. When the redhead turned around, he saw what had to be one of the cutest things he's ever seen.

Bakugou was standing at the foot of the bed, one of his hands balled in a fist as it rubbed his sleepy eyes. Then, there was the sweater. It went a little to fair on Kirishima, but on Bakugou, it was halfway down his thighs. The sleeves flopped over the blondes hands, only the tips of his fingers peeking out. Kirishima couldn't help himself, squealing quietly before running forward to hug his boyfriend tightly.

"Is it really okay for me to wear this puffy piece of shit in public?" Bakugou asked, hugging the redhead back. Kirishima only nodded vigorously, he loved the way Bakugou looked in the sweater. Letting go, Bakugou went over to the vanady, picking out a pair of jeans before waltzing into the bathroom. He gasped.

"Eijirou, if I wear this in public you're going to have to wear your hair down. Also...givemetonsofkisseslateryoucutepieceofshit." Bakugou muttered, the redhead hearing him as clear as day.

"That's a deal, I'll even wear my puffy red winter hat, we can be matchy matchy!"

"Matchy matchy?"

"Matchy Matchy!!"

Both boys were now giggling softly, getting ready side by side in the bathroom. They did this every day, but today, it felt oddly domestic. Neither really complained though, both of them secretly loved it. They enjoyed just being in each others presence, and that's what they were going to do all day. Shopping together was something all couples did around Christmas time, and now it was time for the boys to experience it too, together.

After both boys had finished getting ready, they headed out of their dorm and into the streets. Kirishima had let their sensei know of course, that way they could enjoy a peaceful day out. Once making their way out of the dorms, Kirishima reached out, grading the blondes hand with his own. The blonde was shocked at first, soon gripping back. As the couple walked hand in hand down the road, they began discussing what they were going to get each of their classmates. Bakugou and Kirishima had both agreed to have each gift be from both of them. They'd just come out to the remainder of the class at their class holiday party, when everyone was exchanging presents.

So far, they had settled on getting the other boyfriends these stupid sweaters that Kirishima had found. The redhead thought the two of them would appreciate it, plus, it would make coming out for both of them easier. Two couples coming out at once is better than just one. Kaminari was getting this video game he's been on about about for the past 2 months, Mina with her stupid makeup, and Sero with this pair of headphones that he once said he really liked the design of. Now, all the two needed to do was go to each store and get the things they already knew they wanted to get, along with looking for things for the others such as Iida, Uraraka, Tsu, and all their other classmates.

The couple jumped from store to store, barely ever letting go of the others hand. It had been a good couple hours, leaving both boys exhausted. They were both walking and carrying many bags. Luckily, they were now finished their shopping, and were walking back to the dorms. Kirishima was set on teaching Bakugou how to wrap Christmas presents, no matter how much of an ignorant piece of shit he was being. He remembered once hearing the blonde say he's never wrapped a present before, so the redhead wanted to be the one to teach him.

When the couple finally arrived back to the dorms, they were lucky to find only Midoriya and Todoroki talking silently on the couch. Bakugou make a slight effort to pull his hand away, Kirishima only tightening his grip. He didn't want Bakugou to hide their relationship from people who already knew.

"Todoroki, Midoriya! Nice to see you guys." Kirishima greeted them, Bakugou muttering a soft 'hello' barely audible to the pair.

"Hey guys! Where'd you guys go, christmas shopping?" Midoriya asked, getting a nod from both boys. Then, footsteps were heard coming down the stairs. Midoriya pulled his head off of Todoroki's shoulder, Bakugou and Kirishima's hands unlacing from each others. All four boys had a look of sadness on their face as Tsu walked down the stairs. Deciding not to say anything, Kirishima grabbed Bakugou's wrist, pulling him up the stairs. After they were out of sight, Bakugou slipped his hand back into Kirishima's. The redhead was pleasantly surprised. He loved affection, and it seems Bakugou was coming to enjoy it as well. When they finally returned to their dorm, they placed the bags on the floor, both boys plopping down on the floor. Bakugou lie his head on Kirishima's shoulder, the redhead running his fingers through his boyfriends hair.

"Eijirou...can you teach me to wrap presents?" Bakugou asked out of the blue. The redhead couldn't do anything but smile, muttering a small 'yes' in response. Both boys sat up, Kirishima began teaching the blonde how to wrap presents. Present after present, the blonde began to get it. It was a joyous time, both boys enjoying the domestic feeling of wrapping gifts together. They both thought, 'Do you think we could do this together forever?' Each had the same answer, 'Yes of course.'
