Shinso's POV

I was able to get four hours of sleep which is pretty good. I looked over at the clock to see it was a little past 1:00. I sighed and got out of bed.

When I wake up there's absolutely no point in trying to sleep again. Once I'm awake then there's no hope for me.

I like the bathrooms Nezu had installed in our rooms. It makes things a lot easier for me. When I wake up I usually get ready for school and sometimes take a shower or bath, so it's very convenient to have my own bathroom.

Today I felt like taking a shower since that usually energized me the most. I turned the water up to temperatures of what would probably be 115° F (46° C), so a very hot shower to say the least.

The warm water soaking into my skin was very refreshing and did the job of getting me slightly pumped up just fine.

When I was finished with my shower, I dried myself off and threw on a hoodie and sweatpants. I crawled back into bed to do who knows what for a few more hours.

Denki's POV

I woke up around 8:00 and hopped out of bed energized as always. I splashed my face with water and stepped out of our big bedroom.

I moved into a house with Shinso about two years, and these have been the best two years of my life.

I moved the living room curtains aside to see Shinso working his ass off with training. I sigh and step into the kitchen. He's always had a bad habit of overworking himself and it's becoming an issue.

I started to make some coffee for him and got his favorite mug off of the tall cabinet shelf. I leaned on the counter facing the coffee machine and a few seconds later felt arms wrapped around my stomach. I laugh for a second before turning around to face my soft husband.

Marrying Shinso was also one of the best decisions ever. He's perfect in every way and I couldn't ask for anyone better.

"What's so funny?" He finishes making the coffee. "I don't know.." I look away slightly embarrassed. I walk to the table and see a letter.

Shinso Hitoshi.

I tear open the letter like a monster and read the words: "Hey Denki." I glance up at Shinso and he notices me staring. "I know."

============================

Shinso's POV

When it was finally 6:30 I gradually got out of bed and made my way to the empty and cold kitchen. I made coffee and some strawberry toast. I put the butter in the microwave for ten seconds to get it softer and easier to spread.

When I'm done with my toast I look over and see Tokoyami. I never thought or him to be a morning person but I can't blame him since we planned to go to the mall pretty early.

9:30 am

We set off for the mall because Hot Topic is a tiny store and if we go in the morning there will be less people. A lot of people shop there and there's so much apparel so they should give it a bigger spot.

When we got to the mall it was already pretty packed considering the time. Hot Topic is on the upper floor towards the back so that means we get to take the escalator. Jiro looked tired since we had to wake her up but I think she'll manage.

We passed a store with merchandise from the sports festival so I made a mental note to check it out later.

When we reached Hot Topic we all went to look for different things. Jiro and Todoroki went to look at Panic! At The Disco and Twenty One Pilots merch. Tokoyami wanted to get some more edgy kinda clothes (you can never be too edgy), and I was just looking around. Maybe some anime merch, or maybe Harry Potter hoodies. You never know.

To nobody's surprise I found myself looking at buttons with cats on them. I decided to get one at the end since they're right next to the checkout line.

I made my way over to the clothes that weren't licensed to a movie or band or whatever, just normal clothing items. I found some black ripped jeans that Jiro thought would look good with one of my hoodies so I settled on that.

"Get as much as you want because I have Endeavor's credit card." Todoroki says holding up the small piece of plastic. I nodded and continued to browse.

In the end, I got the jeans, a few buttons, a rainbow hoodie to show pride and some Pocky.

"Are you gonna play the Pocky game with Denki?" Tokoyami asks looking a bit amused. Jiro holds in a laugh and Todoroki slightly smiles at us. "Maybe someday." I admit.

We went to the food court and Todoroki bought us pretzel bites and a drink for each of us. "Thanks." I sigh looking at the ceiling.

Once we get home it's slightly after noon. I check the mailbox and to my surprise I already have a reply from my soulmate.

I show Mina and the Emosquad and open it up in the privacy of my room.

Wow, good job! You guessed really quick. Was I too obvious? Anyway, I guess we'll get to meet you after I realize you're my soulmate.
Love Denki ♡

He seemed more serious. Almost like a different person. I folded it up and on the back asked Denki to continue sending fake letters to ensure he doesn't find out before he's finished guessing.

I walk downstairs and show Mina. Her jaw drops and her eyes widen. She looks at me and whispers "You need to show Aizawa!"

I cautiously enter my dads' room and see dad grading papers or something and dad playing with Eri.

"Hey... dad?" I say approaching him. "Can we go to that nearby café later?" He picks up and realizes I want to talk in private and agrees.

5:30

I change into something fairly nice and grab my scarf to match with my dad. I make my way into their bedroom and then we take off after telling dad and Eri goodbye.

The walk their was peaceful. Quiet. Soothing. We talked about school and other things. I felt very happy.

When we arrived we sat down at a booth across from each other. I reach into my pocket and pull out all of my letters from Denki placing them beside me.

"Why do you have your letters?" He raises his eyebrow in suspicion. "Just read the first one." He does as told. "Who does that sound like?" I ask after he folds it back. "A dumbass." I slightly laugh and pass him the next letter. "Now who does it sound like now?" He looks up at me with a bit of surprise. "Kaminari..." I smirk. "Exactly."

I pass him the letter that I was sent. "Oh my God..." he mumbles. "Kaminari's your soulmate?" I look down and tears fall from my eyes. "I'm not mad, 'toshi." I look him in the eyes.

He shakes his head and at that moment our coffee is delivered. We decide to head back since I'm clearly not in the mood to be in public.

"I'm not mad at all. I think he's really good for you actually." I look up at him with surprised eyes. "He stuck up for you, you have fun with him, and he makes sure you get at least an hour of sleep. He's perfect for you and you know I'll always love and support you." I hug my dad and smile. "Thank you dad..." I whisper into his scarf. I've never felt happier to have him as my father.
