The Dragon & The Kitsune.

Chapter 22 - Izuku.

They didn't talk as Izuku led Kirishima down to the second gym. It was private and away from prying ears and eyes. He let Kirishima's hand go and shut the door behind them. Then faced the male he crushed on big time.
"So, why was that smile you gave Mina fake?" He asked. Kirishima turned to him.
"You could tell huh?"
"Yeah, I could. So what's wrong?"
"It's stupid."

"Nothing you say could possibly be stupid Kirishima."
"IwasjealousofKaminarihuggingyouafteryousaidyouweregay." He rushed out, barely above a whisper, dropping his gaze to the floor. Izuku stepped towards him, cupping his face, making him have no choice but to look at him.
"Now say that again, louder and not so quick." Izuku smiled at him in reassurance.
"I said, I was jealous of Kaminari hugging you after you said you were gay."
"Why?"

"Because I have a huge crush on you! Even without knowing how you looked under your mask. Like I said, it was stupid." Kirishima sighed.
"You like me?" Did he seriously just admit that? He hoped he wasn't joking.
"Yes Izuku. I like you, a lot. I have literally the biggest crush on you. But I kept it to myself, well apart from telling Bakugou, because I didn't know if you were gay, bi, straight or whatever."
"And that hasn't changed now you've seen my face completely?"

"Nope. That just made me realise that you're entirely out of my league." Kirishima chuckled slightly.
"What makes you say that?" Kirishima raised his hands and put them over his that still cupped his face gently.
"Because you're an incredible exquisite man and I'm just me."
"Wrong. You're gorgeous too."
"I'm not. I'm just me. Insecure Eijiro Kirishima."
"And I'll stop you right there. You are gorgeous Kirishima. Don't doubt that."

"And what makes you say that?"
"Because it's true, plus, I also have a crush on you." He admitted. No point in hiding it anymore.
"You do?"
"I do." He stepped even closer, until barely any space separated them. Kirishima stared at him from those beautiful red eyes of his.
"And what can I possible offer you? You're all powerful Izuku. I just have a stupid hardening quirk."
"First of all, your quirk is amazing. You can do so much with it! And second, just be your loveable self. Even though I'm strong, it doesn't mean that I don't need someone to lean on sometimes. I've always been the one lending the strong shoulder for people, but I won't mind at all if it's you that I can lean on at times." He admitted honestly.

"No one has said anything like that to me before."
"First time for everything, but I mean every word. Can I ask something?"
"Of course."
"Can I kiss you?"
"Yes." Izuku smiled gently at his quick answer and closed the distance between them. Their lips brushed softly against each other, before connecting properly. Kirishima's hands dropped to Izuku's waist, holding tightly. He let go of his face, and cupped the back of his neck, pulling him completely flush against him. His other, he wrapped around his back, locking him in place. His tongue swept across Kirishima's lower lip, asking for entrance, which he gave.

Their eyes slid shut as Izuku deepened the kiss. Their tongues fought for dominance, and Izuku won. Kirishima let out a low moan and Izuku picked him up. His legs locked around his waist, and he moved until he could hold Kirishima against the wall. The red heads arms went around his shoulders as he pretty much melted into the kiss. Soon they had to stop for air and separated. He opened his eyes and stared at the panting male, who blinked at him lazily. A string of saliva kept them connected, which Izuku broke with a swipe of his tongue.

"Kirishima?"
"Yeah?"
"Will you go out with me?"
"YES!" Izuku grinned as he was yanked into a tight hug, but he definitely wasn't complaining. When they separated a little, Izuku's gaze went to Kirishima's mouth, who smirked slightly before they locking lips again. This time it was a little more frenzied as they pretty much devoured each other. Izuku was ecstatic. He was now going out with his crush! They soon became a panting mess, and Izuku really liked what was displayed in front of him. Kirishima's face was flushed, eyes at half mast, lips swollen. He lifted a hand and cupped his face gently, rubbing his thumb over the smooth flesh.
