How To Be A Bullshit Liar 101 (Chapter 8)

~Third Person P.O.V~

*Edited*

"Well, you see..." Shoto started, scrunching up his nose in concentration. How would he even weasel their way out of this one? Just like Izuku, Shoto was a crappy liar, if you knew him well enough you would be able to tell pretty easily when he was lying. He just really hoped Izuku wouldn't be able to tell.  

"He's Shoto's brother." Katsuki blurted out, that part was true. Shoto sent him a glare, he wasn't too fond of the term 'Brother', an asshole maybe, but brother? Nah.

Izuku nodded, he could tell something wasn't right but didn't push it further. "Just make sure he doesn't come back here and we won't have any problems." He said, already heading upstairs to his room.

"That was close," Shoto muttered, pursing his lips, "too close for my liking."

Katsuki snorted, letting his head fall. "We gotta tell the other's about this, you know that right?" He said, peeking up at Shoto through his eyelashes.

"Yeah, I know. But if he's back for good- it won't end well, especially now that we have Ashido and Toga ." Shoto groaned, going over to Katsuki and leaning against the counter.

"How the fuck can he fight like that?" Katsuki mused, resting his head on Shoto's shoulder.

"I haven't the slightest clue."

The two were jolted by the sound of a loud thump from upstairs, soon followed by a string of muffled curse words. They both exchanged a look of half amusement half playful annoyance- not wasting a second in going to check on Izuku.

Once they were up they were met with an aggravated Izuku, laying on the floor and holding his knee. "God damn nightstand," He mutters harshly under his breath.

"How do you go from being a complete badass to...whatever the hell this is." Katsuki cackles, holding his stomach in the process.

"Fuck off Kacchan," Izuku growls, trying to get up but failing due to the pain in his knee. "Can you help me up though?" He added, giving the best puppy dog eyes he could manage. 

The blond let out a long heavy sigh, pulling Izuku up with ease and setting him on the bed. Shoto couldn't help but smile at the interaction, letting out a string of light chuckles. He sat down next to Izuku, rolling up his pant leg to see the damage done to his knee.

"You just have a bruise and a small cut, how did you even do this?" Shoto asked, a genuinely curious expression on his face.

Izuku blushed, crossing his arms and turning away. "I hit my knee on the nightstand," He mutters, a pout never leaving his lips.

Katsuki howls with laughter, shaking the bed with his antics, receiving a glare from the green-haired boy. 

"Fuck you Kacchan."

"As much as I would love for that to happen, I don't think Shoto would appreciate it Deku," Katsuki said a casual smile on his face.

Izuku chuckled, until what Katsuki said fully registered. "Wait- what?"

"Smooth Kat, real smooth." Shoto chimed in, patting his boyfriend on the back, "Don't read to much into it, it's just Katsuki being Katsuki." Shoto said, trying to fight off the oncoming blush.

Izuku, however, was already lost in his own train of thought. Obviously what Katsuki said to him was just playful joking, right? Yeah- just playful joking is all. Nothing to overthink about.

This was gonna keep him up later on tonight.

Soon enough, Shoto broke the silence with light banter. It continued for a few hours, them talking and cracking jokes until they couldn't breathe from laughter. It felt...fun. Izuku hasn't felt this type of fun in a really long time. Not even back at the program with Himiko and Mina, hell it doesn't even come close to how this feels. 

Natural.

That's the only word that comes to mind to describe the feeling for him. 

"Okay, okay- but real talk for a minute here...when exactly did you and Kacchan start dating?!" Izuku asked, a light giggle breaking through.

Shoto smiled, running his hand through Katsuki's hair. "We started dating in middle school." he thought back, laughing at all the good times he and Katsuki had back then.

"Who asked who out?"

The blond smirked, puffing out his chest with a triumphant look on his face, "I did. It was pretty sweet how I did it too!" he boasted, making his boyfriend snort. "What? I did a nice job asking you out!"

"If by nice you mean, shouting from your roof 'I like you asshole!' then okay babe." Shoto wheezed, Izuku joining him in the fits of chuckles.

Katsuki huffed, wrapping an arm absentmindedly around Izuku's waist- causing the shorter male to blush a deep red. It was quiet again for a moment, the only sound in the room was their breathing and the ticking of the clock. Izuku was tired, after getting into a fight, having two insanely attractive guys in his room- and doing homework, he was pretty tuckered out. 

"Hey, how come your brother was so pissed off?" Izuku questioned, sleepily fluttering his eyes.

Shoto and Katsuki sighed, neither wanting to answer the question at all. "I took something from him," Shoto replied vaguely, playing with Izuku's hair.

"Won't your mom be upset that I beat the shit out of him?" His question was muffled, his face was buried deep into Katsuki chest.

"No. She won't be, don't worry." Shoto whispered, rolling so Izuku's back was pressed against his chest.

-------------------------

It was around 12:00, their mother's would be coming home any minute now. Katsuki and Shoto stayed up, neither one of them moving from their positions- not wanting to risk waking Izuku up. They talked for a while, hushed giggles and whispers being shared between them.

"Kacchan...mm" Izuku mumbled, he was sleep talking.

The two instantly grew quiet, looking down at the ball of green fluff in between them. 

"Peppermint..." He breathed out, rolling over so he could bury his face in Shoto's chest- inhaling his rather soothing scent.

Katsuki snickered, playing with a few strands of green curls. "Looks like he remembers your nickname now," He mused, planting a gentle kiss on top of Izuku's head.

Shoto smiled, a warm and fuzzy feeling growing in the pit of his stomach- the same feeling he got when Katsuki asked him out a few years ago. He locked eyes with the carmine ones before him, Katsuki cocking up a questioning eyebrow.

"What's the matter?" He asked, his voice going surprisingly low.

The duel-haired boy let out a soft laugh, leaning his head back down onto the pillow. "Nothing- it's just...remember when he first fell asleep in between us?" He asked, knowing the answer to the question already.

Katsuki nodded, how could he forget? That was the same night he began to catch feelings for Izuku, it seemed pretty memorable to him. "What about it?"

"I- I think I like him too...like actually like him," Shoto said, his gaze never leaving the freckled teen next to him.

Katsuki scoffed, twisting his face up into a smile, "Yeah, no shit Shoto."

Shoto smiled, although it was more somber than happy. "That's gonna be a problem you know?" He said, hating the thought of Izuku finding out their secret.

"Yeah...I know."
