Someone Else's Hero (KiriBaku)

Day 18: Helping Todoroki

[A/N Hope you guys don't mind the point of view switching to Todoorki's]

Everyone in the room started freaking out, Todoroki's flames becoming larger and larger. Kirishima convinced the group to move on. They quickly moved onto other conversation topics, talking the night away. As they were all getting ready to leave, Kirishima told Todoroki he could come talk to him tomorrow. Todoroki took the opportunity gratefully, a smile on his face as he went back to his and Midoriya's room. When he entered the room, he saw his green-haired boyfriend curled at his desk, sleeping quietly. Todoroki felt part of his soul leave his body as he walked over to Midoriya, picking him up. He carried him to bed, Midoriya clinging to Todoroki as soon as he lay down. Todoroki smiled as he pulled Midoriya to his chest, falling asleep moments later.

The next day, Todoroki sat in class eager to talk to Kirishima and Bakugou. He was much more fidgety than normal, his eyes always peering over at Midoriya, Kirishima and Bakugou. After that painful day, Todoroki headed straight for Kirishima and Bakugou's dorm. He just needed to know what he was doing.

"Oh hey Todoroki, you can come on in! Katsuki's just doodling, don't mind him." Kirishima let the other boy into their room, a smile on his face. He guided Todoroki to his bed, the two of them sitting down on it. At first, neither of them spoke, Todoroki taking a few minutes to organize his thoughts and come up with questions he wanted to asked Kirishima.

"So...how do you...actually propose?" Todoroki asked, looking into his friend's red eyes. Kirishima gasped, Bakugou turning around so fast Todoroki could have sworn he got whiplash. 

"Todoroki you don't know how to propose?! Your parents never taught y- oh." Kirishima took a moment to think about it. The boy didn't have much of a childhood, his parents weren't happily married either. Bakugou stood up from the desk, placing himself next to Kirishima on the bed. The redhead reached out for the blonde's hand, intertwining their fingers.

"Well...the way I did it was kind of cheesy, not going to lie. I proposed on Christmas morning. You can propose in a casual setting, a romantic setting, private or public. It just depends on who you're proposing to. I knew Katsuki would want something private and casual, I think I would have killed him if I did my original idea. When you do propose, you have to get down on one knee, and as 'Will you marry me?' You can put a dramatic speech before it, or you can keep it short and sweet. It all depends on the couple." Kirishima explained, his face now tinted soft pink. Todoroki nodded, his mind wandering. How would Midoriya want to be proposed to?

"Um...I think...since Izuku is a romantic person, he'd prefer a more romantic p-proposal...uh. He's really shy though, so I would probably make it private." Todoroki muttered, one of his hands scratching at his head.

"You can use my idea if you want? It'll take some prep though. I can help!" Kirishima offered, a smile on his face.

"What's your idea?" Todoroki asked, looking at the redhead. As he waited for an answer, Bakugou climbed into Kirishima lap, closing his eyes.

"My original idea was to take Katsuki out to dinner, and then when we come back, have the whole room decorated with rose petals and stuff," Kirishima explained to the other boy.

"That's...adorable. Are you sure it's okay that I use that idea? It's yours after all..." Todoroki

questioned, watching the couple in front of him.

"Oh yeah, you can totally use it! I never used it, and you can only propose once, so you can go right

Ahead! I'll help you if you want?" Kirishima asked. Todoroki just nodded, Kirishima and Bakugou smiling.

"Thanks for the help guys, but I should probably get back to Izuku, he might be worried about me. Thanks for helping me out...in advance. You guys are the best." Todoroki thanked them, both parties saying their goodbyes before Todoroki walked out the door. Kirishima then turned to Bakugou, pressing a soft kiss to his cheek.

"Looks like we won't be the only fiances here anymore, babe."

"Looks like we're gonna have to be the better ones."

"Of course, Katsuki, of course."
