Their Hot Romance (BakuDeku)

Chapter Four

A soft blaring noise woke the omega from his deep slumber. He grumbled incoherent sentences under his breath as he reached around for his phone on his dresser. At the touch of cold wood to his fingertips, his scarlet eyes snapped open. Did I fucking fall asleep on the floor? He wondered as he started to sit up. A groan escaped his lips as his muscles screamed at him to just continue lying there. Each of them were tense and uncomfortable from sleeping on the floor like an idiot. Ryuu nudged Katsuki's side as an attempt to assist him.

"I'm okay, Ry." Katsuki promised. He finished sitting up then looked around his room. It was pretty much barren. He had a large bed, a dresser, a full-length mirror, and a few pictures of family and friends. There's four doors in his bedroom. One lead to the oversized closet, which is where his nesting items are safely hidden from view. Another lead to his private bathroom. The third was the exit to his room. And the fourth, which is really two doors, lead out onto his balcony.

Katsuki was by no means struggling with cash. Not only had he learned how to save and budget from a young age, but being a hero actually pulled in some really good cash for him. He was ranked ninth on the charts, having started to worm his way up since before he even graduated. Unfortunately though, Izuku was ranked eighth with Shouto being tenth. It was embarrassing if you ask Katsuki, but he still had some time.

He wouldn't be absolutely pissed if Izuku got the Number One spot. Okay, fine. He would be pissed for a bit then he'd beat the shit out of Izuku and prove he's still better despite their shitty rankings. But he knew deep down some place in his anger-filled body--a place he'd never let anyone have access to out of fear of showing weakess--that Izuku would be a great hero. Part of him--the part he usually suppressed--wanted to work alongside Izuku, but he knocked that idea every time he thought about it. Working with Izuku was like admitting defeat in his eyes.

Katsuki got up on the floor, groaning as he stretched his arms and legs. He let Ryuu out of his room so the dog could go drink some water from his bowl in the kitchen. Katsuki went into his rather small bathroom. It had a shower/bath, a toilet, a medicine cabinet, a cabinet for other bathroom things--such as towels, extra toothpaste, and more--a sink, and a small rug so he wouldn't slip when he was done bathing. On the sink sat his toothbrush, his current tube of toothpaste, a cup with All Might on it, mouth wash, and floss.

Katsuki brushed his teeth, flossed, and washed his mouth with the mouthwash for the appropriate amount of time. He used to be really aggressive about brushing his teeth, telling the germs to die as he did so, but that aspect of his personality had calmed down in recent years. More specifically after moving into dorms because he took into consideration that he was always up before anyone else.

In the mornings it was always him, Mezo Shouji, and Fumikage Tokoyami to be the first ones awake. Katsuki didn't mind because the other two males didn't ever bother him save for a quick greeting or nod of the head. It was strange that the least talkative two were usually up early in the mornings for no reason in particular. Katsuki got up to train, but he never quite figured out what they were doing up at five in the morning when the rest of the class didn't get up until seven. Then again, he never took the time to search or ask for an answer.

Katsuki filled his cup with clean water, ridding the cup of the toothpaste that came off his lips when he rinsed his mouth out with normal water. He took out the necessary amount of pills for the day, which consisted of his anxiety medicine, his suppressants, and his scent blockers, and then took them with the water. He stared into his own scarlet irises as he swallowed it all down.

Today he turned twenty-one years old. Despite his best efforts at telling Eijirou not to, he knew the idiot was throwing him a party for his birthday. He wasn't really sure if he felt like an adult. Sometimes he felt like he was still back in high school, kicking ass and taking down villains. He had improved though, and that fact stroked his ego every time he thought about it.
