Shoto had dealt with similar thoughts after he ended up dating Katsuki, but he was happy as the change in their relationship easily surprised the entire class. They had kept it to themselves for a bit until the truth finally came out about their relationship. Katsuki made him happy, he didn’t have any complaints either.
He hadn’t been in a good place when he first started to attend U.A. while he got in because of recommendation as Shoto was dealing with the struggles from his family. His father’s ideals rested heavily on his shoulders which is why he had been determined not to use the other half of the quirk he had been born with. He wasn’t even interested in making friends in the beginning. He hadn’t even thought about dating when he first started to attend U.A. There was a feeling of curiosity when it came to his classmates, especially Katsuki, but he didn’t know how to properly talk to them. Things did change after the Sports Festival though, he started to open up to them showing the person he truly was.
Things changed even more between them after the events that started at the summer training camp, Shoto did have his regrets about not being fast enough to save him back then.
Their milestones were small, but it was enough for Shoto which easily brought a smile to his face when those milestones made an appearance. He was glad for the types of when they linked their fingers together or embracing one another behind closed doors allowing them to enjoy each other’s company. He couldn’t help, but hold onto those gestures tightly when he held onto his hand or just enjoying a movie night in one of their rooms.
He should have asked first, but the thought crossed his mind which led to the kiss happening on the very floor where his room was located.
There was a feeling of nerves, but he leaned in before gently pressing his lips against Katsuki’s hoping that he wouldn’t mess it up. This was their first kiss after all. It was everything that Shoto thought it would have been and more even if it was him who made the kiss happen.
He finally had kissed him.
He finally got the courage to kiss him.
The feeling of embarrassment started to turn his face red, easily matching the tinge that rested across Katsuki’s face. The sudden yelp being noticed mixing in with the sudden explosion of his quirk going off which could easily catch the attention of anyone who was on the same floor as them. Hopefully, the rest of their classmates would continue to stay in their rooms.
He couldn’t help, but feel shy about the whole ordeal as Shoto was close to bolting to his room because of the embarrassment that continued to linger. He knew that it was risky since it happened in the hallway where any of their classmates or Mr. Aizawa could spot them. Their relationship was known to everyone here now.
His gaze shifted to the floor, finding it difficult to make eye contact with him while they were both blushing fools who continued to stand in the middle of the hallway.
