The shopping trip was cut short. Denki felt terrible but with the way his friends were fussing, they'd be constantly worried anyways. Sero had his arm around Denki as the walk across the parking lot. Mina was inside paying for the books they managed to find while Kirishima walked ahead to get the car started.
"I'm feeling better." Denki states, hoping to calm down his boyfriend. Sero's brow was furrowed and his mouth a set in a frown.
"We're still going home." Sero says, tightening his grip on the blond. "I'm..i..sorry for scaring you." Sero's voice was strained and gave away what he meant.
He though he was the one who caused the freak out.
"It's not your fault. I was already worked up and excited. You did calm me down, ya know." Denki says softly, staring into Sero's dark eyes. He looked sad and guilty.
"Hey, how ya feeling?" Mina asks, running to catch up to them.
"Fine. Let's get home."
Kirishima was leaning against the car door, waiting for the trio to get inside. Once everyone was ready to go, he pulled out of the parking lot, making his way towards the house.
"Nobody better tell Bakugou what happened." Denki says, looking at the group.
"Denki, Bakugou's the only one who could figure out what happened to you back there. We need him to know." Mina says, placing her hand on his shoulder. Her eyes were watery.
Was she really that upset?
"Fine. But i'm going to tell him." Denki sighs, leaning back in the seat.
"Ow! You shocked me." Mina giggles, poking Denki's hoodie.
"Denki is the king of static shock." Sero jokes, laughing with Mina. Denki could feel the mood rising. These idiots were so easy to recover from a scare. He was glad he and Sero had such good friends.
.....................................................................................................
It seemed Bakugou knew something happened. He was waiting on the porch, his arms crossed. His worried glare made Denki gulp.
"Go on. Ill pull the car in the driveway." Kirishima's calm voice snapped Denki out of his mini panic. Bakugou could blow up at Denki's freak out. He'd be too worried.
"Hey Bakugou." Mina calls out, waving to the blond who hops over the railing, landing in the drive way. He allows Kirishima to pass through before walking up to the group.
"Something happen? You all look guilty." Denki lowers his head, letting out a sigh.
"I kinda had a health scare."
Bakugou narrows his eyes, staring intently at Denki. "What. Happened?"
"I got all panicky and couldn't breath. My pulse went through the roof and it hurt. My head was pounding but i'm good now." Denki gives two thumbs up, hoping Bakugou would let the whole thing rest. He was tired of talking about his health condition.
"You have to be more careful. You had a asthma attack that triggered a heart spike. It could have ended in a damn heart attack."
Denki's face pales, Mina covering her mouth in shock. Sero could feel his heart sink. Denki could have died then. A heart attack, even a small one could have easily killed him.
"Bakugou, i think it would be best if you let it rest. We'll just have to get a inhaler and be cautious of his heart. We'll figure out something." Kirishima puts a hand on his boyfriends shoulder, calming the blond down.
"Hey, Mina?" Sero whispers, pulling the pink-ette into his chest.
"Hmm?" she hums, leaning up to listen.
"I have engagement rings in my pocket. Should i wife Denki up now or later?"
"Only you'd say that, wouldn't you?" Mina giggles, bouncing on her heels. "Not yet. Let's make it romantic." Mina thinks for a minuet before running up to Bakugou. She whispers to him, making the blond smirk.
Did he even know how to smile normally?
"Of fucking course! It'll be the best fucking meal you ever had." Bakugou walks up the steps, Mina winking at Sero from her spot on the steps.
"What was that about?" Denki whispers, pulling Sero closer, hugging him tight.
"Dunno." Sero fakes innocent. He leads the blond into the house, carrying the rest of the bags that Kirishima forgot. "Mina and Bakugou get like that. Just ignore them." Denki raises a eyebrow, pulling back from Sero.
"What's so hard in your pocket?"
Sero freezes, trying to think of a good lie. He couldn't tell Denki about the rings. "Just my wallet. Kirishima bought me a new one." He says fast, wincing at Denki's raised eyebrow.
"Oh really?" Denki giggles a little, pulling away to sit on the couch by Mina.
"Sure Sero..Sure."
...............................................................................................................
Bakugou and Mina were acting weird. For one, it's just how they act, and two, they stopped everyone from coming in the kitchen. Even Kirishima was fed up.
"Maybe they bought you a gift?" Mina shrugs, but Kirishima shakes his head.
"Why would blasty buy me a gift? It's not my birthday." Kirishima stands up, just as Bakugou steps out of the kitchen.
"Let me get dressed then we can go out to eat." Kirishima, Mina and Denki all looked confused. Sero guards the door as Bakugou gets dressed. Bakugou pulls Mina and Kirishima to the door, winking at Sero.
"What the hell?!" Bakugou shushes Mina as he forces them in the car.
"Sero's going to propose to Denki tonight. His birthday is in two weeks so we have enough time to plan the wedding. Just give them some privacy."
.... ......................................................................................
Sero's heart was pounding as Denki watched Bakugou pull the car out the driveway. "Why did he leave us? And make that food?" The plates of katsudon were placed on the table, candles glowing in the dim room. A bottle of sparkling grape juice was placed in the center as well as a vase of roses.
"Bakugou must'a took these from his garden out back." Sero takes a rose out of the vase, putting it behind Denki's ear. "Bakugou made this so we can have a official first date."
Denki giggles, pulling Sero to the table.
"So, we have the whole night together? Bakugou better be a good cook."
"He's the best." Sero pulls Denki's chair out, letting the blond sit down before pushing him in.
"This is awesome Sero. Your super romantic." The black haired teen grins, taking his own seat across the table. Denki looked so cute in his over sized hoodie and shorts, his body and expression relaxed.
Sero could feel the heavy ring box in his pocket, which weighed heavy on his mind and body. He couldn't believe what he was about to do.
A few hours after dinner, Denki and Sero were sitting in the living room, waiting for the rest of the group to come home. Sero was more nervous then before. When was the right moment to do this?
"Denki, you said you wanted to get married before your three years are up, right?"
"Yeah...What about it?"
"I was thinking..." Mina, Kirishima and Bakugou were hiding behind the door, listening in on the conversation.
"We're just in time." Mina whispers, leaning closer.
Sero gets on one knee, Denki's eyes widening in understanding. "Sero, your not serious, are you?!" Sero nods, his whole body shaking in nerves. Pulling out the ring, Sero takes a deep breath.
"Yes. Will you marry me, Denki?"
