Wassup y'all? So....I've been considering making momo and shoto's plot in this fic its own book.
What do you think?
Let me know if i should make a separate book for shoto and momo plez 😁

Momo_
Every single bit of momo's training went into her holding herself back from ripping the man before her into pieces.
"Money problems?! Did you just suggested to my parents that I'm- some kind of gold digger?!"

Shoto laughed nervously.
"What? I thought they'd laugh."
Her small laugh shook her body with rage.
She slammed him against the wall again and held a forearm against his throat, he let out a small groan and fixed his attention on her fully.
"Are you trying to humiliate me?"
"Oh, darling, quite the opposite."
His hands came to rest on her hips and he pulled her against him harder, angling his head downwards.
Her temper began to ebb away.
Quietly he muttered an apology and massaged her hips. She let out a slow and heavy breath.
When his lips hovered above hers she pulled back and fixed the front of his jacket.
"Fine. Its done. Now let's march back in there and blow their minds away, shoto"

She turned to leave, but he grabbed her wrist. She stopped and looked over her shoulder at him.
He glanced away before opening his mouth.
"Are we- is this...this is hard to say"
She paused, but said,
"You can talk to me, shoto"
"Well...is this, whatever this is between you and me, finally getting serious? Is me being here to meet your parents your way of asking me to stay with you?"
Momo's face dropped slack, and she faced him fully. Immediately he regretted ruining the mood.
A long moment of silence passed between them before she got on her toes, pecked his lips, and turned for the door again.
"Let's go, we've kept them waiting."
Shoto sighed, but followed her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Now, I think its high time these next two had their own time, don't you?)

Mina_
"Oh for gods- give him to me! Kirishima! I said- GIVE HIM!"

Katsuki gently yanked reiji out of eijiro's hold and took him. The young boy stirred, but soon passed back out, leaning onto katsuki's chest. Eijiro looked as if he were about to start crying.
"Be careful with my son, katsuki, he's-"
"Yeah yeah, I got it. Don't worry about it, alright? I'm sick of your complaining."

Mina pursed her lips from where she was standing with ochako. Her poor friend looked like she hadn't slept for days. Ochako and katsuki had agreed to take reiji for a day, so mina and eijiro could have a day to themselves. Mina put a hand on her friends shoulder.
"Are you sure? After what you saw- you don't have to take him"
"No no- mina, no. Me and katsuki will take him. Its okay. What I saw was- I can deal with it. I'll be fine. You need to be a wife again. Not just a mother."
After a second, mina sighed and hugged her friend tightly.
"Okay, okay. Thank you. I'll be back around 8 tomorrow for reiji. I promise."
The brunette nodded and shoed them out, immediately taking the baby from katsuki and hogging the boy. Katsuki barked something insulting before the door closed and eijiro laughed.
"Right! Let's go!"

Mina laughed and gripped his hand in hers. No matter that it dwarfed hers.
"You seem too eager to leave our son"
"Pfft. What, me? Never. Im just excited to have you to myself for a whole day. I can't believe it!"
Before she could retort, he leant down and kissed her with heat.
She had to push him away to get air.
"Eijiro! We're not even out of the building yet."
His finger gently ran along her jaw, and his eyes turned dark.
"Well then, that gives me something to look forward to"
His sharp teeth gleamed in a feral grin as he looked down at her.
Mina gulped.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That night, they went to dinner. Mina had felt almost self conscious about how she looked in her dress.
She'd worked hard to get back into shape after the baby, and had restored herself to her former glory as best she could, but she still worried.

Now, sitting at the table, she shook herself out of it. She can't think like that. She was beautiful. And she didn't need to prove it.
Besides, all the love She'd ever need was in eijiro's eyes as he stared at her from across the table. After a second, she smiled and giggled.
"What?"
She asked, and he snapped out of his daze, sitting up straight.
"N-Nothing. It's just...you're more beautiful every day"
She blushed a deep pink, and touched his shoe with her heel in thanks. He smirked and nudged her back.
She took a deep breath and looked around at the expensive restaurant. From their table, they had a gorgeous view of the city.
A city they got to call home.
"It's only been a few months, and yet its like we haven't been able to do this in so long"
Mina said, and he reached across the table, taking her hand in his.
"I know. And between reiji and helping katsuki...I haven't been here for you. I'm sorry"
He looked ashamed. So she shook her head and gripped his hand harder.
"Oh, no, eijiro. You've been- I can't put it into words. Without you I...I couldn't have done it. I love you, now and always"

His face softened and he smiled, the sweet look infecting her.
They ate, talked, laughed, and flirted like shameless teenagers again. It felt like fresh air after being in a hot car. They had both needed it.
They had a rare love between them.
One where they loved each other so fiercely that it didn't matter what challenges arose between them, didn't matter whatever came between them. They were unafraid of each other. Utterly and wholly.
And they were the strongest couple anyone had seen because of it.
Mina truly believed that she belonged with eijiro, and he thought the same.
After the food, as they sipped their drinks and talked a little quieter, mina decided that she'd toy with him a little bit.
Right as he was talking, she slid her foot up the side of his leg.
His words slowed and he blinked rapidly, setting his drink down.

She narrowed her eyes and smirked as she shifted her leg, allowing her foot the room to rub along the inside of his thigh.
He cleared his throat and smiled, the picture of charm. Though mina knew that it was just him bearing his teeth.
"Uh- I'm caught in my words. This is- we were having dinner."
He said, and she set her drink down.
"Emphasis on 'were'"
He was about to say something else, but she gently applied pressure into his groin. He froze, staring hard at her. She stared right back.
His hand fisted into the table cloth.
She put in pressure again.
And couldn't help but laugh as he raised his arm and called for the check.
On the elevator down, they were alongside another couple.
Though the other lovers were considerably older and half asleep.
Standing beside him, mina tried hard not to inhale his scent too much. To her it was an aphrodisiac.
Though she inhaled sharply as his hand silently gripped her backside, so hard she almost yelped.
The inside of her lip paid the price as she bit down to keep quiet.
He seemed like he'd let go, but then gripped even harder, causing her to arch her back in response.

The victory smirk that graced his lips at her reaction sent mina's blood boiling. With what, exactly, she didn't know.
She just knew that she couldn't wait to get him alone.
Once they got back to the car, he opened the door for her, and gave her ass a hard slap as she bent to sit down. She yelped, jumped, and rubbed her sore behind.
Then she glared at him because a stranger had seen.
Innocently, he'd shrugged and gotten into the driver seat. It didn't matter, though, because as he set the car into gear and began driving, she'd inched her hand along his leg.
"M-Mina, I'm driving"
"Hmm?"
He chuckled, but gripped the wheel as her hand cupped his groin, rubbing gently. As her hand continued, she leant across the space between them and planted a warm kiss on his neck.
He groaned and gripped the wheel even harder, the leather groaning. Her hand pressed harder.
So did his foot on the gas.
His one and only goal as of now was to get home as fast as he could.

Gimmeeeee suggestions on what should happen when they get home 😄
