I Found What I Was Missing

Chapter 26: Sweetheart

Sweetheart

Izuku found clean shirts for all his boyfriends, ensuring that they were nice and warm for the cold outside; it was going to start snowing soon. They waited around for a small while as Gon and Killua finished getting ready.

The rest of the pack was sitting around in the living room, waiting for the parents to exit the bathroom so that they could say their goodbyes and go home. They were on call for hero work, filling in for the four mates that would spend the day at UA.

As the two exited, refreshed and hair wet, they entered the living room.
"It was nice meeting you guys! We should meet up again soon, yeah?" Denki spoke as he hugged the two adults.

"Of course," Killua replied, purring gently as he rubbed one hand up and down Hitoshi's back, the alpha was really tense when he gave hugs to anyone that wasn't his mate.

"It's sad we have to go so soon, but you know, duty calls and all that!" Ochaco stated.
"We can meet up again sometime this weekend. Text you guys on the chat?" Eijirou suggested.

"Oh yeah! We could go for a picnic or something, before it starts to snow," Denki spoke with excitement.
Tenya shook his head. "It's far too cold to stay outdoors for so long, we could catch a cold,"

Denki shrugged.
"We'll figure something out!" Deku told as he walked with his friends to the door, watching as they started putting their shoes on.
"We'll see you guys later then," Ochaco said as she waved from the door.

"Enjoy your day," Hitoshi muttered, lacing his fingers together with Denki's.
"I will. Bye guys!" Deku waved with a wide smile as he watched his friends walk away.

Izuku turned around and walked back into the living room. Killua was sitting on the sofa, rubbing his hair with a towel to dry the silvery strands. Gon walked into the room with a navy coloured hoodie, smiling as he handed it to Killua.

"We should probably leave soon," Eijirou noted as he looked up at the clock.
"Yeah, I still need to stop at the sweets shop to see if they have any candy apples," Izuku muttered.

Killua turned to look at him with a spark in his eyes. "The candy store?" He asked eagerly.
Izuku nodded with a smile, watching as Killua turned to give Gon a wicked smirk. The alpha laughed as he sheepishly rubbed the back of his head.

"Then we should go now," Shoto stated.
They walked to the door, putting on their shoes and left. Inko was already at work, so Izuku left a note for her to tell her where they were going, in case they weren't back before her.

Izuku laced his fingers with Shoto's as they walked down the street, smile never leaving his lips. It felt so strange walking down the street with his mates and parents in tow, like a little family stroll.

He'd been daydreaming about this for the longest time, really. He opened the door to the candy story, one he liked to frequent whenever he visits Eri, since it had such a wide variety of sweets.

Eri has always been denied the treat of sweets, and so Izuku always brought here a few new ones to try, and always a candy apple if he could get it, those were her favourite.

Both Gon and Killua made sounds of awe as they entered the shop. It smelt so sweet, and it was nice and warm, too. The owners tended to sell hot chocolate in the winter, too. Izuku decided he'd get some for Mirio, Aizawa and Eri. His parents should try some, too, it was the best hot chocolate one could get.

The owner, a sweet, elderly woman, smiled at them upon their entry, her smile brightening as she recognized Izuku. The teen greeted her politely, eyes trailing around the various displays of sweets, feeling conflicted.
