That's Katsuki's ring^
--
Eijiro's pov

"Katsu~ Wake up, Baby."

I gently ran my hand through his hair and he mumbled, rolling towards me before opening his eyes.

"Mhmm..Morning."

He yawned as I leaned down to kiss his head.

It had been a few weeks since the phone call with Mitsuki. Micah had turned seven and Kai was quickly appraching six. We had gone together while Katsuki was at work and found a perfect ring.

"Good morning. You slept through me taking the kids to school." I laughed quietly. "And I made breakfast."

"How the hell did I even sleep that long?" He rubbed his eyes and sat up, stretching his arms and mucles.

Niko was staying with Katsuki's mom for the day. We had dropped him off last night.

"Because you needed the rest. Aren't you glad I made you take off work for our little date day?"

He scoffed playfully and shook his head.

"Yes. I am. Now let's go eat Because I'm fucking starving."

I nodded and stood. "Of course. Let's go eat."

I grabbed his hand to help him out if bed.

"Thank you, Eijiro. Breakfast was amazing."

I felt arms wrap around my waist and a head on my shoulder as Katsuki spoke, the smile on his face made obvious by his tone of voice.

"You're quite welcome, Baby. Only the best for my love." I put the dishes I was washing out to dry and turned in his grip.

"You're really sappy today. Any reason?"

I kissed his nose gently before placing a kiss on his lips, which he immediately accepted.

"Not any in particular. I just want you to be happy today."

Gently, I brushed my thumb against his face, smiling wider as he closed his eyes and leaned into the touch.

"Now go get dressed. We have quite the day ahead of us, Babe." I ruffled his hair and he pulled away with a slight scowl, to which, I only laughed.

He trudged upstairs as I turned to finish cleaning up.

"Well, don't you look hamdsome, Lookin' all snazzy."

He snorted as I kissed his cheek. He was in black ripped jeans and a black tank top with a red and grey flannel tied around his waist.

"And you just look stupid."

I frowned playfully as I looked at my black tank top and camo pants. "I think I look fine."

I grabbed a black bandanna and tied it around my head, deciding to leave my hair down today.

"That makes it worse."

"You love it."

He chuckled and nodded as he looked me up and down. "I do."

"Where are we going?"

I sighed as I grabbed my black boots. "I can't tell you. It's a surprise."

"Ugh! You know I hate surprises," He muttered as he tied up his red converse.

"Well, I think you're going to love this one." I smiled and zipped up the combat boots.

"You're evil, you know, Ei?" He grunted and stood, making his way to the door. "But I love you."
