Chapter Four

To Izuku's dismay, that night was no different than any other as he couldn't sleep. Izuku got up from the couch and looked around.

All of the lights in the house that he could were out and he guessed that everyone else was asleep. He slowly made his way to the kitchen trying not to run into anything. However with the lights off that task proved impossible as his hip collided with a chair at the breakfast nook.

Izuku silently cursed under his breath at the start pain that exploded. He opened the refrigerator door and wished the light in it was dimmed. So he started to mess with the light bulb to try and make it darker.

The boy honed into the task his mind zeroing in and finding the solution. He managed to unscrew the light bulb and finally got back to finding some food.

"Ahh, goblin stealing food!" Kirishima yelled. Izuku jumped and bashed his head against the roof of the fridge causing that fridge light to turn back on.

"Kiri shut up," Izuku whisper yelled. He didn't want anyone else in the house to wake up especially Bakugou.

"Kiri?" Kirishima walked into the kitchen. The light of the fridge illuminated the side of Izuku's face, casting his soft features in shadow. Izuku's face heated up substantially as he relalized Kirishima was shirtless, his red hair was a mess on his head and his voice was a rocky ocean. "What are you doing?"

"The light is too bright so I was trying to fix it and I was hungry," Izuku explained expertly hiding how flustered he was.  The boy backed up from the fridge and closed the door. "Why are you awake?"

"I heard something going on down here and I thought-"

"That a goblin broke in and started to steal food?" Izuku joked.

Kirishima pulled out one of the chairs and sat down. "Yeah go ahead and make fun of me for that but I can point out you called me Kiri."

"I'm sorry but you have a long name and I needed you to shut up. So I shortened your name. It won't happen again," Izuku explains as he also sat down.

"It is okay, I don't mind. You can call me Kiri if you want to," Kirishima tells Izuku.

"Really?"

"Yeah, as long as I also get to give you a nickname."

"What is it going to be?" Izuku asks.

"I don't know yet, but I promise it wouldn't be bad," Kirishima says. Izuku shrugs and agrees. "So why were you awake?" Kirishima asks.

"Turns out the couch really is super uncomfortable," Kirishima looks at Izuku clearly not believing him. "So what did you think of the live stream?" Izuku quickly changes the subject to one he knows Kirishima will have to respond to.

"It was fun I guess," Kirishima shrugs. Now it was Izuku's turn to not believe him. "I did think it was fun... I'm just not used to being on camera," Kirishima explains. 

"That makes sense considering you never have been before. I am surprised that you agreed to move in with two YouTubers that have no common sense. Also you know you didn't have to do that live stream we could have thought of something else."

"Yeah that was stupid of me," Kirishima admits making both of them laugh. 

Kirishima yawns reminding Izuku that some people actually do sleep. "Tired?" Izuku asks.

Kirishima shrugged and yawned again. "Yeah, I guess so."

"You should go back to sleep then," Izuku says.

"You should too," Kirishima says crossing his arms.

Izuku rolls his eyes. "I'm not the one yawning. Or that one with a very clearly sleep face."
