Kiribaku -modern au-

Two-in-one party

(Sidenote: They're all wearing their fantasy outfits from that one ep in S3 and from one of the popularity poll artwork)

"Oi, is Kiri on the way?! It'd be pretty fucking embarrassing if Tetsu turns up first. We can't just surprise one guy, solo"

Sometimes, Bakugo just wanted to explode all the people around him that stressed him out. If he had powers, he would've done so in a heartbeat, zero hesitation. Sadly, no such powers existed.

At this stage, he was beyond stressed at how uncoordinated the two groups were being at the most crucial part, fumbling around like a bunch of clowns.

"No one's replying man, I can't say anything for now"

"Just keep spamming them or something"

The plan was for Mina to discreetly drive Kirishima over while Monoma distracted Tetsutetsu somehow and brought him back to the diner at the same time.

Toga was tasked with inviting Kirishima's side of friends while Bakugo had to invite Tetsu's.

That was already an impossible task since they had to make sure no one from either side spoiled the surprise and they needed to make the atmosphere inviting enough so it wouldn't be awkward for all these different people to be called in together.

"Shit, Mina just texted me. I think they're almost here. Shitshitshit, be ready"

Tapeface, the guy that managed to magically cut his finger on tape of all things while setting up the birthday banners, reported back to everyone.

Bakugo didn't know if it was impressive or pathetic for someone to get injured like that. At least he got the job done.

"Monoma's on his way too... they should both be here together right about now"

Todoroki flapped his arms around like a strangled pigeon, trying to gather everyone's attention. He urged the party crew to get into their respective hiding spots.

It was honestly funny to see a guy dressed like a royal prince act like a jester. Even Sero was snickering at him, seeming more elegant in his tailor uniform than Todoroki's shtick.

Todoroki and Sero were actually the ones responsible for most of the decorations and Bakugo had to admit that they were a pretty solid team together. Turning a diner of all places into this was commendable.

"Crap, I hear footsteps. Turn off the lights and everyone... shut the fuck up"

"Shhh, they're coming"

"Oh god oh god"

Bakugo's heart was having its own drum solo, hard rock style. He had no reason to be nervous, but his anticipation was overwhelming.

The sound of feet stomping towards the entrance got increasingly louder, only a couple steps away from bursting through the door.

5, 4, 3, 2....

"SURPRISE!!"

Confetti popped about in the air, birthday streams rolled down and the guests jumped out of their hidden spots, excited to greet the pairs.

"Happy bir- wait huh?"

"What the fuck..."

"Who the hell-"

Enji Todoroki stood at the door, for god knows what reason, covered in strings of coloured paper that were in no way meant for him. He even attempted to sheepishly step backwards and retreat from any confrontation. The only force stopping him was the death glares shot from his usually robofaced son.
