Whoop whoop! Another chapter down and the longest chapter to date I believe XD
Hope you all enjoy this one! Things are starting to pick up and Izuku receives a special gift this chapter!

Katsuki can be cute sometimes XD

Izuku groaned down at the many books laid out before him. He placed his head down, trying to stem the pounding in his head from continuing on as he sought the comfort of the old smell emitting from the books.

He had been there in his study for a few hours now. He had even taken his lunch in the study, wanting to make sure he had looked over every detail he had to before deciding on the major factors for the Engagement Ball that was to be held in a few month's time. The beginnings of the basics of the ball had begun right after it was first announced to both Katsuki and himself. The two of them had been stumped into silence, listening to their mother's talk on and on about the detailing and the design and the food and so many other factors that had Izuku's head spinning before he was even allowed out of the tea room to go rest.

He had been pouring over the etiquette, formalities, and national books since then. He understood that the other kingdom's next in lines were invited. This was not only as a peacekeeping tactic, but was also done to ensure that the other kingdoms understood that their future ruler had a chosen spouse - meaning that their kingdom had a future to rely on.

Izuku hated being the center of attention, but he understood that the ball was needed in a tactical stance to show that the Bakugou's had indeed chosen someone to be their next Queen. It irked Izuku to no end that he couldn't be listed as another 'king' beside Katsuki. He understood why, but he identified as a male, and as such preferred to be referred that way. It had taken the last few months alone to get the maids and aids to start calling him Consort or Lord Izuku rather than Lady or Princess Izuku. It still dug deeper into his chest each time they had to correct themselves when caught saying the wrong gender.

He sighed then, picking his head up from the books and rubbing at his temple. He doubted he could read much more now. The day was nearly gone as the sun was just beginning to make its descent down the horizon. He heard a knock on the study door then, looking up to see Katsuki peeking his head inside the room before making his way inside. Eijirou was close behind him with a large grin on his face.

"I'm surprised to see you awake, Deku. The last time I found you in here you were asleep and had to be woken up to be dragged to bed." Katsuki grinned down at him, coming over to sit on the edge of the desk and look over the numerous open books.

"If I recall, that was just yesterday, was it not?" Izuku smiled up at Katsuki, the blonde snorting in reply as he nodded. He recalled a few times he had been found like that. Katsuki coming in late into the evening, just to wake him up and demand him to head to his quarters. There were a few times where the fire was lit in the fireplace, and a blanket was tucked snuggly around him when he had fallen asleep on the chase within the lounge portion of the room. He had been quite fond of those moments - seeing the care that Katsuki put towards him and this growing… relationship between them. "Did you make any progress on your end?"

Katsuki hummed then, lifting up a piece of cloth from within his chest pocket of the loose shirt he was wearing. He normally was caught with nothing obstructing the view of his chest, so Izuku was at a loss for why the blonde alpha was now suddenly wearing a shirt. Though, he would not deny that the shirt did him just as much justice to his body frame and muscles with the tight fit. "I did. These pieces of fabric here are the ones decided on for my outfit that night. I finished with the fitting, and should have the final fitting a month before the ball occurs."

Izuku nodded, taking the fabric from Katsuki's hands and ignoring the brief touch between them that had his fingers tingling in delight. He smiled up at the alpha, and nodded. "Have you decided on what you would prefer me to wear?"

Izuku was asking the dreaded question - whether Katsuki wanted him to wear a dress or more male styled clothing. It had been discussed heavily between them and even their parents, and in the end, the decision was to be decided between the engaged couple. Izuku gulped, his brow beginning to sweat as Katsuki studied him intensely in thought.

"What would you prefer to wear, Deku?"

Izuku groaned, leaning back in the chair and creating space between the two of them. "I've told you! I do not care what it is I wear, it's why I've asked you to decide!"

"But it isn't my body, and it isn't just my ball, Izuku. This is much more your decision than mine." Katsuki was holding back his anger, not wanting it to seep into his tone. It was important for Izuku to be the one to make these decisions. No matter what he wore, Katsuki would approve and think he would look nothing better in. He had seen the omega in every and any type of clothing at this point - minus of course the bedding attire but that was something he could wait to enjoy later in their lives.

He watched as Izuku's face went through an array of emotions. From anger, to confusion, to contemplation to even contempt before Izuku nodded and stood from his chair. "Alright then Kacchan, I'll wear what I want then."

"And that would be…?" Katsuki couldn't help to ask. After seeing the numerous emotions run through the omega's eyes he was now curious as to what conclusion he had come to.

"That would be a surprise for the engagement ball, my alpha." Izuku winked, causing Katsuki to suddenly sputter with words he couldn't release from his tongue. The action caused the tension in the room to dissipate with the sounds of Katsuki's choking, Izuku's slight giggle, and a large cackle from Eijirou. Katsuki turned to glare at his friend, the omega moving to the bookshelves next to his desk to replace and take out new books. Eijirou made his move then and elbowed Katsuki is the ribs. The grunt was a satisfying noise to hear from the bigger alpha.

"Ask him already." He whispered before Izuku could come into hearing range. He paused, three new books in his hands as he stared at the two alphas.

Katsuki sighed and looked at Izuku, meeting his curious gaze with a light glare.

"Deku." Izuku hummed in reply, coming to sit at his desk once more. Katsuki waited, seeing if he would get a verbal response but Izuku's nose was already back into another book. "Deku. Look at me."

The omega looked up, a playful smile on his lips as the alpha glared down at him. "Yes, alpha?"

Katsuki grunted again, a blush high and intense on his cheeks. "Fuckin- would you stop that? Just. Just- listen, tomorrow I want you to take the day off from whatever it is you do in here." Katsuki gestured to the room with a wave of his hand. Izuku went from confused to annoyed and he slowly stood up from his seat to place his hands on the desk to lean forward towards the alpha.

"And why should I do that? And for your information, Kacchan, I research, translate, and study so I can be adapt in my positions in both the near and far future." Izuku's anger was rising once more but it looked like the alpha was holding back his own annoyance at the omega's backlash.

"You need a break. You've been in here every fucking day since the announcement of the ball minus for duties of your future position and calls from my parents. You and I, us," He gestures to Eijirou as well. "Will be going on a horseback ride to the lava plains. There is something I wish to show you."

Izuku slowly sat back down as Katsuki's explanation went on. He contemplated the words, turning his chair and staring out of his window towards the edge of the castle grounds. The village extended from there, and just on the horizon line, he could make out the beginnings of the rugged land that lead towards the east where the lava plains laid. He turned back, his eyes looking at the two alphas who waited both impatiently and patiently for his reply.

"I really do need to study more… The ball is just-"

"The ball preparations can wait, Lord Izuku. Please, join us tomorrow won't you? It's not only myself who is attending but also Courtess Ashido, and I need… Well…" Eijirou looked away, his hand coming to scratch the back of his head in embarrassment. "She requested for you to come along."

Izuku gave Eijirou an easy smile, but sighed. "Fine, I'll come along on one condition, Eijirou."

Eijirou eagerly nodded stepping forward to place his fist against his own chest. "Anything Lord Izuku!"

"Stop with the Lord. Izuku is fine."

"You're better with him than I am."

Eijirou stopped short in the hallway, turning to glance over his shoulder at Katsuki as he caught up to him. He raised an eyebrow, clearly wanting more to the wording he used. Katsuki sighed, taking a hand and running it through his hair in clear agitation.

"He is much more talkative... when you are around. It is almost as if you bring out his other side, one I do not see when it is just us in a normal conversation."

"Are you referring to how he tends to flirt more with you, while I am there?" Eijirou blinks, his fingers rubbing the back of his neck to his shoulder blade, a nervous habit he seemed to have picked up from Katsuki after all these years. He had noticed this as well, but had thought better of it to bring it up for a conversation when Katsuki seemed on edge.

Katsuki nods, his eyes looking around the hallway before settling on Eijirou. "I worry that he is only showing his interests towards me because you are there, and not because he wants to…"

"Almost as if he feels he has to showcase these feelings for you? As if it were his duty?" Eijirou asked, his eyes looking over his future king as his body slacked from his normally straight posture. He saw the simple nod, and Eijirou's mood deflated seeing his friend like this. "We can't just assume he feels this way, because you two are never alone. It's clear he does feel something with the way he snuggles into you when you carry him to bed. At least, it's his omega who feels the comfort with you."

Katsuki grunted, running his hands along his arms to warm his skin with his palms. "That's the issue - I don't want just his omega wanting me, I want him to want me with everything Izuku is. Not just his secondary, I want him, total and complete in the way he has me." Katsuki spoke with an edge to his tone, and Eijirou could only nod as he turned to continue back down the hallway. Wouldn't be good to dwell in one place for long as the workers of the castle knew how to eavesdrop.

"Then, let's get you two alone." Eijirou offered, a grin forming on his lips as Katsuki's head whipped up.

"The fuck you mean? You know we are forbidden to be left alone!"

"Yes, but let's say tomorrow we somehow get separated. It's easy to do when we are within the lava plains, is it not? And even if it's just an hour or so, who is to know when it is just the four of us out there?" Eijirou snarked out a laugh at the flabbergasted look on Katsuki's face. His grin growing as Katsuki gave a small smirk in return.

"You would do that? For me?"

"For you and your future mate, yes. If being alone in just a short time frame will help you two to communicate better and see the real feelings, then yes. I will step down from my duty for just a moment so you can find this peace."

"You are too good to me, Eijirou."

"It's one of the few pleasures I can bring you, my lord."

Katsuki hit his shoulder and the two of them laughed as they continued on their way to begin preparations for the ride tomorrow.

"Who is this pretty lady?"

Katsuki turned around, his eyes taking in Izuku's attire as Ashido walked with him after gathering him from the study once more. They had set out a time to leave earlier in the morning, but still Izuku had insisted getting up early so that he could read over another few chapters before departure. Katsuki didn't understand how one could never take a break, but had a level of respect for his betrothed at his determination to learn everything he could. At least he and Eijirou had convinced him to come along.

"This is your horse Deku. A gift from my father who had this girl's mother as his own." Katsuki turned to brush back the beautiful black maine of the Cobb. She was a grey color, spotted across her body with black speckles that reminded Katsuki much of Izuku's freckles. His eyes turned to the omega once more, as his hands came to rest on the thick neck of the mare with love and adoration sparkling in his green eyes.

"She is beautiful… What is her name?" Izuku brushed his hands across the mare's neck. His hands coming to rest just under her strong jawline. The horse looked at him then, and seemed to calm from having two sets of hands on her.

"We had called her Aine for awhile, but you can name her whatever you wish. She is still young and able to learn other names to go by." Izuku nodded, listening to Katsuki's words as he came to stand in front of the beautiful mare. He lifted up his hands, the mare watching his movements with caution before stepping forward a mere few inches to place her head within his hands.

Izuku's smile bloomed, and Katsuki looked on in fascination at the bond forming between the mare and omega so quickly. He could see that Eijirou and Ashido were now watching as well, both in equal amounts of surprise as the horse readily accepted Izuku.

Izuku leaned forward, placing his forehead against the horse's snout. He kissed her then, his hands running along her jawline as he spoke words to her in another language that Katsuki did not understand.

"Well?"

Izuku looked up then, his green eyes meeting Katsuki's as his smile grew calm from the excitement before. "Yes?"

"What shall you name her?"

Izuku faced the horse again, his eyes sparkling in mirth as he rubbed her neck. "I remember reading about a horse, back in one of the many mythology books I was recommended by your mother and tutors. She was a horse that could ride both on land and within the water, whose coat was one of fascinating beauty as she served the gods well. This mare, she holds so much power, I can see it within her eyes, and I think she deserves a name that fits her just as well. So her name shall be Enbarr, after the horse in those very legends."

Katsuki looked over the horse, his own coming to rest his blonde head against his rider's back. Katsuki ignored him, his stallion could wait. "It fits her well."

"Indeed, I agree." Eijirou spoke as he finished tying on his saddle. His horse was one with a coat that gleamed red in the sun, but mainly looked to be a spotted brown with shimmering gold. She was a beautiful mare as well, one of a unique color Eijirou's father had found and gifted him.

Katsuki's own was a purebred stallion, one with a blonde coat and maine with streaks of white and patternings across his body. He was powerful, and could compete alongside Katsuki in most of his training. The two were both hard headed, but respectful of each other so their relationship was stable. They had grown out of their stubborn stages, after Katsuki had been bucked off one too many times for his tastes.

"Do I need to saddle her up then, Kacchan?" Katsuki met Izuku's eyes at his question, but shook his head as he moved to help Izuku with Enbarr's reins.

"We will be taking my horse. I wanted to introduce you to her before we had left however. She is yours to take whenever you wish. It seems you two are already forming a bond as well, just as we could have hoped." Katsuki nodded, taking Enbarr and leading once more into the stables. "She will be here, along with my horse, my father and mothers, and our leading court members."

Izuku nodded, saying goodbye to Enbarr and then facing Katsuki's horse. He looked just as fierce as the alpha, but the horse blew out from his nose before coming forward to meet Izuku properly. Izuku held out his hand, and the horse shook its head before coming to lean against Izuku. Izuku scratched at the horse's neck, and smiled as Katsuki returned to take the horse's reins. "Shall we?"

Izuku nodded, taking Katsuki's hand to help him up onto the horse. He sat behind Katsuki, his arms coming to wrap around the alpha's middle. Katsuki spoke to the horse, and seeing that Eijirou and Ashido were also ready, tutted the horse into a light trot towards the northeast.

"And what is this stallion's name?" Izuku muttered in question. His eyes were avoiding Katsuki's broad shoulders, trying to keep his mind off of the strong scent coming from the alpha's collar of his red cape. Izuku had given this particular cape back after Katsuki's scent had completely faded from it. The alpha had worn it many times since, and he couldn't help himself when his omega was craving to dive his nose right into the crook of Katsuki's neck.

Instead, Izuku placed his forehead against the alpha's back and breathed deeply. Listening Katsuki taking in deep breaths before he responded. "His name is Rituath. The ancient name for King of Tribes. I wasn't allowed to pick the common name of King or what I had most wanted to name him, so this was better option."

"What did you want to originally name him?"

A snort from besides them drew Izuku's attention to Eijirou and Ashido. Their riding style similar to Katsuki's and his instead Ashido was in the front with Eijirou's arms around her with the reins in his hands. Eijirou's grin had Izuku calming from the slight blush at the intimate riding style.

"He wanted to name him King Explosion Murder, or even Lord Explosion Murder, but no one would allow him too. Said they were not titles fit for himself or his horse." Eijirou laughed as Katsuki's face turned sour with a scowl. A deep growl left his throat.

"I think it was a proper name."

Izuku giggled before patting Katsuki's exposed stomach in some form of comfort. It made Katsuki grunt in reply as Izuku couldn't hold back the need to nuzzle into Katsuki's cloaked back. He could feel the alpha stiffen under his fingers, but Izuku just held on tighter as Katsuki urged Rituath to go faster. Izuku giggled as he lifted his head to laugh, the wind blowing through his curls as the air steadily got hotter.

By the time they reached the outskirts of the lava plains and had set the horses in a stable nearby with water, Izuku was feeling the hot air bellowing through his clothes. He itched at his sleeves, wishing to roll them up but resisted the urge for now. The charms he had placed on himself earlier that morning were still in place, but he worried about the exposure to the heat, so he kept his sleeves down in irritation.

Katsuki could see the omega was irritated with his clothing choice, but decided not to voice his attention. He had warned Izuku to wear lighter clothing than normal, and the omega had listened, since the clothing was indeed a much thinner and flowy material than what he normally wore. Clearly, however, the sleeves were the main issue.

Katsuki stepped forward, his shoes crunching the rugged earth beneath his soles as he led the four of them through the pathway towards their destination. His smile slowly grew on his face, watching the omega take in his surroundings as the lava plains grew, and more and more hot springs began to appear from flowing trenches within the earth. Hearing the gasps and the questions from the omega made his heart grow fonder, and by the time he stopped before the large mouth of a cave, Izuku was by his side looking around with a gleam only his emerald colored eyes could show. Those eyes flashed to him then, and Katsuki moved his hand to grip Izuku's in a stronghold.

"Where are we Kacchan?"

Katsuki looked up towards the cave, taking a deep breath before he let a rumbling growl release from his chest. The growl grew, and soon Eijirou joined in as they howled and roared towards the entrance of the cave. Izuku stiffened, his eyes wide as he watched Katsuki before turning towards a new noise coming from the mouth of the cave. His eyes widened, taking in the large and marvelous dragon that came forth from the cave. The dragon gave a roar in reply, as Katsuki and Eijirou let their growls settle in their throats. Izuku could hardly contain his shaking, taking in the expanding of wings as the dragon roared once more.

A multitude of chirping noises coming from Katsuki caught his attention, and the dragon responded in turn with her own chirps. Izuku didn't know how he came to realize she was a female, but his heart yearned to learn more about her. Katsuki bowed then, and the dragon tilted her head before her eyes focused on Izuku. She chirped at him, and Izuku could only gasp and look to Katsuki for help.

"Ka-Kacchan?"

"She welcomes you, and feels privileged that you came to meet her and her nest first. This is my mother's dragon, Ryesen, the ruler of the lava plains and the nest that resides here. She is the first one I had wanted you to meet, as she herself requested it." Katsuki moved his arm then, down to the small of Izuku's back as he lightly pushed him forward. "Go on, introduce yourself."

Izuku gulped, his head spinning as he looked from his alpha to the large fiery dragon in front of him. He nodded, stepping forward and bowing deeply to the dragon. "I-... I am Izuku Midoriya, Prince Consort and betrothed omega to Katsuki Bakugou. Th-thank you for requesting to meet me, Queen Ryesen." He kept his head down, and shivered as he felt the tell-tale signs of the dragon blowing out of her nose onto him. He heard a rumbling, and glanced up to meet directly into the eyes of the queen Ryesen.

His eyes locked onto the beautiful yellow of Ryesen's, and he could have sworn he saw a smirk form on the dragon's face. 'My, my, you are indeed a beautiful omega, my child. A rarity, as you humans call them. Katsuki is very lucky to have your hand.'

Izuku looked startled as the voice drifted through his mind, and he glanced around before settling onto the dragon once more, looking puzzled.

'Oh, my. You can hear me can't you? What a special child indeed. How lovely.' Izuku's eyes widened as the dragon huffed at him again with a plume of smoke this time. He began to glance behind him towards Katsuki, his vision obscured by the smoke surrounding him. 'No, no child. Do not tell that boy you know how to communicate with us. He will learn of that secret in time. For now, follow me, I wish to grant you a gift.'

Izuku looked nervously behind him, the dragon's tail coming to block the other three from entering the cave as Izuku followed Ryesen. He could hear Katsuki yelp, knowing the tail must have appeared from the thick smoke to shock them all. Ryesen seemed to have chirped to him what was happening however, as Izuku did not feel or smell Katsuki following them. Izuku looked around the cave, his breath catching at the smaller dragons that littered the walls, lighting their path with small puffs of flames or on the tips of their tails, and chattering their teeth in his direction. Izuku couldn't understand them as well as Ryesen, and seemed to know his question before she voiced it.

'The chittering is used by younger dragons, as they evolve and grow, the clicking and chirping you heard before, and what we are using now, is what they will learn to use to communicate with as they mature. Just like a human baby morphs into a young child and learns your languages.' Ryesen glances down at Izuku, seeing some of the younger dragons come forward to walk alongside him. One even had the courage to settle on Izuku's shoulder, and Izuku scratched below it's chin to get a light chattering noise in approval. Ryesen approved immensely of this development, seeing how well Izuku took to the dragons, knowing her decision to gift him with the prize of her cave to be a good one.

'Rarity Izuku, step forth towards the pillars there. The gift, be gentle with it, as it will need all the love and care you can give something so precious as this. Take it as a welcome into our clan, and raise it to be your own, Rarity Izuku.'

Izuku looked from Ryesen to the altar lit with flames and flowing lava. His skin itched from the heat, and he could feel sweat beginning to pool along his hairline and lower back. He stepped forth, his eyes following the movements of the smaller dragons as they scurried around him to get a view of what he was doing. He spotted something white, gleaming with grooves and bumps set on the stone altar. The flames and lava reflected off the cool, pearly looking stone, glowing the area around him in a soft pink light. His hand reached out, running along the curved edges before his eyes truly took in the form.

"Its… an egg?"

'Yes, indeed. This little one shall be yours, Rarity Izuku. Just like you, this dragon is also a rarity in itself. We have never seen before a shell of this color, nor a dragon who has stayed within its casing for so long. We had feared for many months that it had been stillborn, but with you arriving, it seems to have been brought back. That gleam, the reflections you see, were not there a mere few months ago. It began the moment you set foot upon the land of the south again. It seems, just as you were tied to the southern kingdom to become its future consort and provider, that this little one had chosen you. We have only seen this a few other times, one being Katsuki's own dragon he was provided at a young age. And same with Mitsuki and myself.'

"Queen Mitsuki…? You had chosen her like this?"

'Not the in same way, no, but similar abilities and feelings towards our chosen rider. Mitsuki was just born when I felt her being call out to me. I had never been tamed, never wanted a human rider, until the day I felt her breathe her first on this earth. We have bonded since. This little one felt that similar pool to you - and now you two will have a similar bond as all Bakugou's and their courts do with us dragon kind.'

"I… I see…" Izuku's arms came to wrap around the egg then, and it gave off a cooling effect from the flames and heat surrounding him. He began to take some of the straps from his outfit, nestling the large egg against his chest in the makeshift bindings. He looked up to Queen Ryesen, who seemed to smile down upon him. He gave a large one back, still confused by the events, but accepting them, nonetheless. "Thank you, Queen Ryesen."

'It is nothing to thank me over, young Rarity. The little one had chosen you. I was just meant to find and guard it until they had chosen to awaken. Take care of each other, and please, take care of that ruthless runt out there as well. I hear enough about him from his mother.' She huffed, flames coming from her snout as Izuku held back a laugh. She followed him out towards the entrance of the cave, where Katsuki, Eijirou and Ashido were waiting.

"Fucking finally! What the hell did you-" Katsuki paused in his rant, his body tensing as he slowed his pace towards Izuku. "Is that… a dragon's egg?" Katsuki looked from the egg strapped to Izuku's chest to the large red dragon behind him. "Did you lay another? I had thought that the season was over, and why the hell is it that color? You have only ever produced golden, black or red eggs all your life with whom you had chosen to mate with. Why is this one white?"

A series of clicking noises filled the space behind Izuku, and he gathered a few words from it. He still did not understand how he could understand the dragon language from never reading or trying to learn it before, but that was something to ponder on later. He moved towards Katsuki and smiled at him. "Queen Ryesen gifted this to me. Supposedly, it is mine. I was… um… chosen? In a sense…?" Izuku wasn't sure how to phrase it, but it seemed Katsuki caught on.

"She speaks as if it isn't hers. I don't understand how she came to hold onto this egg, but it's strange that one such as this would appear as you did. But I won't question it, it is clear that the egg has accepted you, and you alone." Katsuki moved his hand towards the egg, tracing one of the grooves. The egg shook then, and a small, white glow emitted from it where his fingers traced. Both Izuku and Katsuki were in awe. "Amazing…"

"It's beautiful… I've never seen anything like it." Izuku responded in a breathy tone, as Eijirou and Ashido moved forth. Queen Ryesen made a series of noises, and Katsuki responded as she spread her wings and took to the sky. Izuku watched with his breath held, appreciating the beauty of her wingspan and gracefulness. So many new experiences for one day, and he was not yet halfway through. He glanced back down, seeing Katsuki's eyes on him. He gave a large smile, getting a small one in return as they all marveled at the egg.

"Since we now have precious cargo with us, I believe maybe we should start to head back? We could possibly see some more of the grounds before returning to the village and castle for an early supper." Eijirou spoke to them, already turning away to head towards the path they came on.

"That sounds wonderful!" Ashido bounded behind him, her smile large as she looked up at the shapeshifter. The two of them seemed to flow easily into conversation. Izuku smiled softly, following behind them and falling into familiar steps besides Katsuki.

"I'm glad you have found a companion now. We had been waiting to find an egg for you once you felt more secure here, but it seems that one has already chosen you. It is a great honor to have that occur."

Izuku hummed, his eyes looking down at the grooved shell. "I had a feeling as such. I cannot wait to meet them."

"I think they feel just the same. When we return, we should speak to my mother about a placement nest to put within your quarters, and what type of dragon comes within egg such as this. I have never seen anything like it."

"It is quite marvelous. I think they will be one of the most cunning and beautiful beings out there."

"I can think of another, much more cunning and beautiful being than what will come of this egg."

"Oh?" Izuku looked to Katsuki then, his eyes gleaming, chest pumping, and cheeks flushing in a high blush as they stopped just as the lava stone stopped and grass began. "And who might that be?"

"You silly Deku. You should know." Katsuki leaned in then, and Izuku's heart pounded as he closed his eyes. The kiss did not come to his lips however, instead coming to rest against his forehead before Katsuki's own replaced his lips. Izuku's eyes opened, green meeting the ruby of his mate's as he took in a shaky breath.

"You. It's always you, will always be you."

Eijirou in the background: 'Get a room!'
Ashido: 'Aren't you supposed to be keeping them from getting a room in the first place?'
Eijirou: 'Oh… right. Please stop before your mother kills me!'

Chapter End
