Footsteps In The Dark

The Future

It had been a year since their first date, and now the two were living as pro heroes. Their dreams had become true as Izuku soon placed the number 7 spot after just graduating a few months ago. You could say after he graduated Izuku went on a binge of villain thwarting.

The boy worked nonstop, which left him with no real free time for his girlfriend. Aside from the day's he had off, or during the night where he was freed from duty. Kyouka at first didn't mind, in fact she admired his hardworking nature, but today was one of those days where she had felt especially needy.

It also didn't help that she was in the mood. She really needed Izuku to be home right now, but as she watched the news all she would hear about is her boyfriend rushing around the city and saving lives left and right. It made her feel like a bad girlfriend for being so needy...

It was actually their anniversary, and while Kyouka had the day off, Izuku couldn't exactly use any of his vacation days. He had, however, made breakfast in bed for the girl. Little acts like that is what really kept her going as her cinnamon roll was always off kicking villain butt. And while she also did the same, she had concerts to go too, and she'd be lying if she said she didn't wish Izuku had come to watch her play.

'I guess this is just how the life of pro heroes is...' The girl thought, sighing. The two of them had gotten an apartment together a little over a month ago, and here she was sitting on their couch in a bundle of blankets and watching the news of her boyfriend's deeds. Life was really great. That was sarcasm.

Suddenly the front door was unlocked, and Izuku Midoriya himself walked in, panting as if he had just ran all the way here from- Scratch that he probably did. Kyouka walked over to the kitchen to grab a water bottle for her boyfriend, and headed over to the boy. He looked pretty beat up, but it seemed to mainly just be dirt and grime.

She handed him the water bottle which he accepted with a small, "Thanks," in between breaths. He gulped down about half of the water before taking a second to fix his breathing. Kyouka had seen this scene many times before as he had always rushed around the city, barely ever taking a break for himself.

"You really need to stop running around like that. You're gonna crash due to stress eventually." She said, crossing her arms angrily at the boy. He chuckled nervously before standing up straight, and wiping his curls out of his face.

"I have a good reason this time, cut me some slack!" He exclaimed, chuckling. The boy was out of his hero costume, but it seemed he really needed a shower. "I've got a surprise for you. It took a while to set up, but I think you'll really like it!"

And there it was. He made plans for them on their anniversary, and it was going to be some kind of big surprise just for her. This boy was way too thoughtful, though Kyouka couldn't say that she didn't like it. If anything it really just reiterated the fact that she was treasured by him; appreciated by him.

"I'll go get ready then? Should I dress up?" She questioned, looking down at her casual attire. A tanktop and shorts. "Also you need a shower."

The boy nodded, "It'll be more fun if we dress up." He answered, strolling past her. He was headed for the shower. The boy removed his shirt as he walked off, which left Kyouka with quite the nice sight.

Did she mention she was in the mood? Because this boy was going to be the death of her.

After the two of them had gotten ready they departed for... Wherever Izuku was taking them. Kyouka was clad in a strapless salmon and back dress, with a white ribbon belt, and black heels. The dress really accented her curves, and Izuku obviously thought she looked heavenly.

Speaking of Izuku, he was wearing a black dress shirt, with a deep forest green blazer, and pants. He actually wore shoes other than his high-tops, and had a dark green tie to go with his blazer. He looked quite dashing aside from the fact he had such unruly hair, though Kyouka loved it all the same.
