shouto didn't understand why everyone was so obsessed with the concept of love.
love, it's an indescribable feeling, something you feel only a few times in your life, but it lasts forever, or at least, that's what izuku had told shouto in a stuttering mess, fiddling with the golden band that was wrapped around his finger. shouto thought about it, if he had really, truly, loved anyone in his life. his mother, siblings, begrudgingly, his father, but it's not the same as the love that he sees in the other’s eyes, the warmth, the softness he treats his significant other with.
and so shouto thought harder, he thought to himself just who did he love? who would he want to spend the rest of his life with? oh, right, you. it suddenly clicks in his mind how much he thinks about you, your eyes, nose, lips, and the way they curl up when you smile. when you laugh over something he doesn't get, but just seeing you happy makes him chuckle in the slightest bit. the way you get excited over things that others wouldn't, he didn't think he'd find it so cute, but he does, but only when it's you.
it comes to his mind that he's always just thinking of you, you, you.
and he doesn't notice that he looks at you the way the others do with their significant others, with a softness, a little sparkle. he seems to smile, even if it's barely noticeable, you can still see the mirth in his dual colored eyes when he looks at you and only you.
he loves you, he concludes, and his feet begin to take him to you. he tells himself that he's going to confess these feelings, the moment he sees you and can hold you in his arms, the place where you belong. this statement has his blood rushing, his cheeks already glowing red, and his heart has never beaten faster. he loves you.
extra:
LIKE CAN YOU IMAGINE: him, out of breathe on your doorstep, ringing the doorbell every minute or so because he's getting antsy and he's almost shaking at this point, and when you open the door, oh god, the words are coming out of his mouth before he can stop them- "i love you," -and his ears and cheeks are flushed red and he doesn't even wait for you to respond, he just pulls you into his arms and hugs you so tight, his breathing heavy as he tries to catch it and his left side climbing higher in degree out of sheer embarrassment and excitement.
no matter what you respond with (though you better fucking say yes), he holds you tighter, he doesn't want you to see him all flushed and not composed as he usually is, he's just so flustered and his cheeks are hurting from how much he's smiling and he couldn't take you teasing him and anything more than you returning his feelings and embrace.
