Chapter 9

It was one late evening, a quiet one when they were working. Shoto was on the floor, his back to the bed while katsuki was on the chair, close to him. They were just doing their work, preparing for a test the next day when katsuki groaned in frustration, "this is just fucking ridiculous." He muttered, throwing his head back before looking at the heterochromic male who was quietly working on something on his laptop, pausing only to drink water.

Katsuki turned around in the chair so he was looking directly at shoto with a perplexed look as if questioning his entire existence, "hey candy cane, can I ask you a question?" He inquired quietly to which the male in question nodded, "when you drink water, or any liquid, does it boil or freeze in your body?" He asked and inched closer, if that would make any impact on the answer. 

Shoto rolled his eyes, "that's a dumb question, it obvi-" huh, what did liquid do in his body? And he took another sip before taking another, and another. He just couldn't understand! And so he snorted, "was that what you were thinking this whole time?" He asked with a chuckle and katsuki felt himself smile at todoroki's chuckle because he didn't usually, "yeah, it's mind boggling." He confessed and took a seat next to the male. 

Katsuki's phone was on the bed behind shoto so he reached to grab it, though it resulted with him almost kissing shoto's face, who was blushing profusely now. The blonde hadn't seem to notice while he grabbed his phone. Only did he grab it, did he notice how close he was to the male's porcelain face. It was so close and clear, he could feel the other's breath on his face. 

Time seemed to slow down as both of them gazed into each other's eyes but neither of them were making a move to pull away. So, katsuki being more heroic - and not wanting to wait any longer - closed his eyes and kissed the other, he was waiting for the other to pull away, slap his face and yell at him for being gross - it had been done his whole life - but nothing happened until His heart skipped a beat when shoto moved slightly to kiss him back. Damn yes! Fuck butterflies, he was feeling the whole zoo in his stomach. 

They were actually kissing. Shoto was surprised by katsuki actually kissing him. He smirked softly because it was about time katsuki stopped being a pussy and told him he liked him, he was making it painfully obvious by now. 

Shoto was the first to pull back because katsuki was slightly pushing him into the bed frame which hurt but the expression on the blonde's face was priceless! He was flushed to the neck, and looked like a deer caught in headlights, it was precious for shoto who seemed to be more calm and started laughing at the other, "so, katsuki bakugou can blush after all~" he teased, which turned the blonde more Crimson, if that was even possible but he could hear him mumble a

'It's because of you so shut up...'
