“Really?” he asks. He means to say it flatly, but it just comes out hoarse. “You wanna do this?”
Outing their relationship so soon hadn’t been the plan, after all. Izuku glances away shyly before making eye contact again. He shrugs one shoulder.
“You heard ‘em,” he says, a glint of challenge in his gaze. “Kiss me.”
God, Katsuki loves him. It’s too big for his chest, too big for his body even. He shuffles in closer, touching Izuku’s face with careful fingers. Izuku’s breath hitches at the contact. He’s so responsive, tense and anticipatory like this really is their first time. Katsuki thumbs along his cheekbone before trailing down to dip under his chin, tilting his face up. Izuku’s lips part, a soft breath hushing out his mouth. Izuku’s eyes flutter shut. Katsuki drinks it all in, savoring the sight of Izuku, waiting for him, wanting him.
Katsuki leans in and kisses him softly.
Their friends screech like fucking banshees. They jump up and down wildly and wail like it’s the end of the world. Mina bursts into tears. Sero shoots off tape-streamers in celebration. Momo and Jirou exchange a quick kiss of their own and giggle. Hands are thrown in the air, thanks are given, god is praised. Eri squeals as Iida picks her up, setting her on his hip as she claps merrily, tears shining in her wide eyes. Uraraka’s commotion has attracted the attention of just about everyone at the carnival, so they all burst into applause too. Somewhere in the distance, All Might dabs away a tear. Their mothers coo before embracing one another.
Uraraka whips over to the left, shouting into the megaphone. “ Kiri, now! ”
Katsuki doesn’t hear any of it. Not the cheering, not the megaphone, not the music kicking into gear as Jirou cranks it up. Nothing. There’s only Izuku. The gentle press of his mouth as he kisses Katsuki back, his soft breath rushing over his skin, the tiny smacking sounds as their lips move, the helpless noise at the back of Izuku’s throat. Katsuki feels a hand fist in the front of his shirt as he kisses Izuku again and again. He loves me.
