[ They're happy tears, mostly, but more than anything else he's just overwhelmed. Bakugou does that to him, twists him up into a knot that only he can undo. ]
It's your fault.
[ Wet laughter as he chases Bakugou's hand with his lips, tilting his face into the hammock and his hand in equal parts. Between them is the same low buzz of his, their quirk under his skin. When he presses his lips against Bakugou's palm all he can smell is burnt sugar and his mouth waters. ]
When?
[ It's an honest question as he blinks moisture out of his eyes, a little more focused as he realizes that Bakugou's serious, that he's really suggesting someone else. There were other people he'd been interested in, sure, or maybe would consider. There were people he thought were attractive. He had eyes, sure, but... ]
You kissed me in a hallway our last year. [ Midoriya's cheeks might be red but for once he's...steady. This is fact. There's never been any doubt in his mind that as long as Bakugou wanted him, he'd want Bakugou. ] I'd only kissed, dated a few people then. I haven't - [ Here, he stumbles, clearly forcing himself not to stumble any more than he has because Bakugou's always the brave one with this. He has to try his best, too. ] I haven't dated anyone or kissed anyone since the hallway.
[ Since the moment he was sure Bakugou wanted him, liked him, too.
He'd split One for All to save his life without even thinking about it and still didn't regret or doubt that decision. Bakugou's grown into one of the best people he knows and he wants to see just how far he'll go, but also wants to be right there beside him. The hand over his heart flattens palm down a moment and his head falls back against the hammock, Bakugou-themed sunglasses sliding out of his hair with the motion. ]
[His red eyes search Midoriya's closely, back and forth under the blonder lashes. Looking for something that's not there. Some kind of doubt or u-turn he doesn't get. Midoriya is sincere, earnest, and he doesn't know if he loves it or hates it. Both. As always.
Gathering himself up, he turns over onto his stomach and sprawls up over half of Midoriya's torso, letting his feet out of the sand. They sway in the hammock, slow and steady, but his legs are draped over Midoriya's and won't be able to swing them once they finally stop.]
Do you want to?
[This is also sincere, asked low and near the edge of Midoriya's chin as one hand snakes up for the stupid sunglasses. (Don't break his fucking shit, nerd.) Obviously, it won't matter even if Midoriya says yes. Bakugou isn't going to let this catch go. No one else is going to date Midoriya if he has any say so.
But, whatever. He can ask, and that's at least doing what he thinks is a favor. He's!! asking!!]
[ The last thing Midoriya is worried about is whether or not Bakugou can push them in the hammock. Far more important is getting him close enough that Midoriya can hug furiously, and tangle his legs with. As if there's even a question. ]
Yeah. O-of course. [ The hitched breath isn't hesitation, it's giddy, somewhat incredulous laughter. Of course they'd do things in the weirdest possible way. Well, at least he wouldn't ever wonder if that's what Bakugou wanted; now this was just a goal to aim for. Maybe they could say they'll get married when they figure out which of them is the best. That seems like a reasonable incentive. As soon as one of them hits number one, they do it. ] If you hit number one first then I have to marry you, and if I hit it first, then you gotta marry me.
[ It's the stupidest thing he's ever said but he's grinning stupidly up at the sky because they're going to one way or another. ]
You have to help me convince my mom to ask All Might, though. [ HE KNOWS!!! SHE LIKES HIM!!! AND ALL MIGHT LIKES HER TOO!!! Admittedly he only knows because Uraraka had pointed it out, but he knows, and while he's pretty sure he'd explode if All Might was actually his dad he wants his mom happy. Wants All Might happy. ]
...He'd be happy, he's glad we're together. [ His voice goes a little quieter, confessing. ] I told him. What- what I did. I think he knew, even if I didn't say anything... I know users have some sort of link so I think he felt it when it happened. He was waiting for one of us to crack. But he wasn't upset. He said he's happy there's someone I care about that much.
[Gently, Bakugou's brows yank together.] No-- [Wait. Midoriya keeps going, but Bakugou is trying to back up.] Wait-- dammit-- That's not-- [Reaching up, he grabs Midoriya by the wrists of both hands and shoves them down, pinning them into the hammock beside Midoriya's head.]
Fucking listen to me, asshat.
[There. He doesn't release the hands, however. His eyes hold Midoriya fast.] One thing at a fucking time. [He'll get to the whole... Toshinori thing in a moment. Er, both of them.] That's not what I fucking meant.
Do you fucking want to date other damn people, Deku? [His voice keeps the growl, but grows lower.] You said you didn't... after our last year. Do you want to...?
[In a way, he sounds almost reluctant to ask. As if he thinks the answer will be yes. Even if he wouldn't allow it. Even if he's complain.]
[ Oh god. He wasn't asking if Midoriya wanted to. Midoriya squirms, stomach instantly twisting itself up into knots. ]
No, I- Kacchan.
[ His wrists are pinned and Midoriya has a moment where he wants to compliment Bakugou on being balanced here because he once watched Uraraka flip both her and Tsuyu out of one, her floating quirk saving them from landing face-first in the sand. Midoryia's still careful not to fight (yet?) though, not wanting to tempt fate no matter how good Bakugou's balance is.
Still, this seems like an absurd question!!! ]
I'm trying to say I want to marry you! I mean, not... not right this moment either, but later. Why would I want to date other people when I have you?
[Carefully, slowly, Bakugou’s scarlet eyes shift back and forth between Midoriya’s own, over Midoriya’s face like he’s looking for hesitation, doubt. Finally, his hands loosen, and he releases Midoriya’s wrists.] You said you hadn’t fucking dated anyone else. [His voice is surprisingly low but still no less rough.] Like it was shit you regretted.
How you gonna know whether or not to tell me yes and you ain’t ever had anyone else? [It’s such a strange efge to walk. His head dios down and he rests his forehead against Midoriya’s cheek, hiding his eyes and face much like he did after their street fight long ago.] Fucking Uraraka. She had the hots for you. Todoroki. Everybody wanted that playboy bastard.
[On one hand, he knows he’d never allow it. Izuku Midoriya belongs to him. Only yhe strongest deserves the OFA successor, and that’s him. On the other hand... He’s aware of how much of a shithead he is, he has been. If anyone didn’t deserve to have Midoriya, it was definitely him. Having immense arrogance and crippling self-loathing is the wildest, most frustrating thing in the world.]
Midoriya's eyes widen in realization, instantly wanting to negate that because that's not what he meant at all. He stops himself, though, lets Bakugou finish because this is important and he can't keep misunderstanding or making things worse. Bakugou's trying, here, and Midoriya is so full of affection he feels like he's going to burst. ]
I just...do. Why would I want or need anyone else like this?
[ He's kissed other people before. Had fumbling make-out sessions. Everything else, though, was with Bakugou. For years because there's never been anyone else. The mention of Todoroki and Uraraka get a little shrug. He loves them to death and yeah, sure, if things were different maybe? That'd probably only make things worse not assuage his fears, though, so Midoriya uses a newly freed hand to grip the back of Bakugou's neck, tugging him into a kiss. Thinking isn't getting him anywhere; he needs to take a page out of Bakugou's book and just act. Lighting flickers over his fingertips, sparks between their lips and underneath the scent of sunscreen he smells burnt sugar.
When he's done kissing Bakugou within an inch of his life, he leans back against the hammock and presses a lingering kiss to the inside of Bakugou's wrist. ]
[It’s a wonder the two of them don’t honestly flip right over and get dumped into the sand. Bakugou isn’t sitting awkwardly, but regardless of the stability, when Midoriya starts kissing him... Yeah, he isn’t going to not kiss back. Nevermind any kind of depth-reaching kisses like this absolutely get him half hard.
Well. It answers his question in a better way than words.
He has to pause a moment to catch his breath, face flushed and lime-colored lightning popping softly down his neck and over his shoulders. The hand not supporting his weight drops down over Midoriya’s neck and jaw. He brushes his thumb under Midoriya’s bottom lip, brows pulled together.] I just know. [Sure, he’s smooched Kirishima, Urakara just because she was dumb, Kaminari almost for the same reason. None of them had the same spark or drive Midoriya did. Nothing was quite as fulfilling.]
No one else would ever be able to fucking keep up with me.
[ A part of him is honestly bracing for them to go tumbling out at any moment, and maybe he'd welcome that because the distraction would give him some time to think. Bakugou's the worst, best distraction and it's impossible to focus until a challenge is posed. It's like he's hardwired to instantly want to challenge him, to prove that he's worthy of measuring himself up. ]
No one else would be able to beat you.
[ Midoriya tugs Bakugou's head down by his ridiculous hat and can't stop the slow curl of possessiveness that curls through him at the thought of Bakugou in his merch. Another kiss is bitten into his mouth, demanding and then softening into something gentler as his hand curls over the nape of his neck, smooths over his skin.
When it's finished, Midoriya licks the flickers of lighting, the taste of ozone off of his lower lip, pupils dark against the electric green of his eyes. ]
Kissing's never been like that with anyone else, either.
[Kissing really never was like that with anyone else, and he can't even chalk it up to OFA being forced onto him. It had been like that anyway, just unseen. Otherwise, he wouldn't have tackled Midoriya in the dorm hallway trying to shove his tongue down Midoriya's throat.]
Mn.
[He gently pinches his lips between his teeth, like he can feel the last kiss Midoriya gifted him. There's nothing better than seeing the ethereal gleam in Midoriya's eyes; latent energy from the quirk igniting the color of them. If he could eat Midoriya's eyes, he probably would. If he could eat any part of Midoriya, actually, he probably would. But he's an asshole, not a cannibal.
Lazily (and maybe he's hiding a little), he tucks his face into the strong curve of Midoriya's neck, resting his cheek and jaw on Midoriya's shoulder. The beach is warm but not burning here, and he's so relaxed.]
Hey. [He pauses for a moment, but doesn't lift his head.] Anyone fucking else think they got their eye on you? [People he should keep an eye on himself. Sorry, he's kind of garbagely possessive now that Midoriya happens to be willing.]
[ Bakugou relaxes down into him and Midoriya makes a pleased noise in the back of his throat, stretching underneath him. His cock is half-chubbed in his shorts but that's his own fault for kissing Bakugou like that. Gingerly, he adjusts and sinks back down until he can drop a heavy arm around Bakugou's shoulders. ]
I...I don't know?
[ He knows in an abstract way that people want him. He knows that there are people who like him like that, but as to who they are he has no idea. He's too focused on ten thousand other things. ]
No one that I'm aware of. [ No one that matters.
Midoriya's scarred hand slides down the back of Bakguou's tank top, feeling out over the meat of his shoulders, scratching blunt nails lightly up his spine. He doesn't need to ask the question in turn, because he knows. ]
Good. [He’ll peacock enough to bully them out of the picture if so, leaving Midoriya embarrassed and modest, apologizing for his rude behavior.] ‘Cause no one else has got any damn chance.
[He’s aware Midoriya technically belongs to no one, not with this much acquired sass and confidence, not with OFA. Still, it won’t stop him from showing his teeth, barking instead of biting. Try him. Uraraka, Todoroki? Fight him.
He turns his face briefly into Midoriya’s neck again and rumbles. One hand slides under Midoriya’s shirt at the waist, resting wide on the skin between the hip and the bottom of the ribs. Ugh. He’s going to hate getting up and moving.] M’gonna... fall asleep or some shit... probably. [Just as a forewarning to Midoriya when he inevitably passes out on top in the very faintly swaying hammock.]
[ It's too lazy to really be chastising; the sun makes Bakugou warm and sleepy and Bakugou's on top of him. It's doing the same exact thing, the combination of sun and contentment mixing with the faint sounds of water and white noise of people chattering. It's peaceful.
He takes a few photos of them while Bakugou's laid out over him, grinning through the mess of blonde hair. One he sets as his new background. The others are saved, filed away for him to look at later while he lets himself drift. One leg drops down to rock them back and forth, content to lay here until the sun goes down or Bakugou gets bored. Right now, though, the soft pressure of his hand against Midoriya's side combined with the weight of him like some sort of angry anxiety blanket means the most Midoriya does is just touch him, drinking it all in. ]
[The last thing Midoriya gets is a grunted murmur. He says, “Hey,” as if he is going to follow up, but never actually does in the end. His breathing is too steady and deep. Every so often, his body will jump a little. Otherwise, he doesn’t stir, and he dozes for maybe a half and hour. It’s a shame he looks so peaceful and handsome when asleep, face smooth with no scowling wrinkles or twisted lips. The pictures are great even if he’d bitch about them.
Finally, he moves, lazily, scrubbing his face gently into Midoriya’s neck and collar as his body flings him out of light sleep. His head lifts a tad, eyes squinted and blinking, first at Midoriya and then around as if he had forgotten a moment where they were. The best part: his voice is back to crackling with that deep, pleasant drawl.]
How long was I fuckin’ out?
[There’s an angry red imprint of Midoriya’s clothes on the side of his face, and a streaking whelp where he had pressed into Midoriya’s collar bone.]
[ He loves spending time with Bakugou in any capacity but there's a guilty little part of him that enjoys Bakugou asleep because he gets to look at Bakugou as much as he wants. He could spend hours just watching him but Bakugou thinks it's weird and gives him shit for it so he doesn't, usually. Now, he can admire the way his hair frames his face, or trace the lines of pale skin where his tanktop doesn't cover with just his fingertips, committing everything to memory.
This, too: Bakugou's voice when it's the low rumbling growl. Midoriya thunks his head back against the hammock and laughs helplessly rather than answering right away. ]
Mmm, doesn't matter. [ He wasn't paying attention. Midoriya traces the line against Bakugou's cheek, cupping it with his palm a moment later just so his thumb can drag over the swell of Bakugou's bottom lip. For a moment, he does the same thing Bakugou does to him; the staring, the bright-eyed intensity where he's clearly working over something to say and then shaking it off. ] We've still got most of a bottle of rum or water, if you need.
[Luckily, he’s content and drowsy. Midoriya’s affection doesn’t bother him by making him embarrassed, nor does he seems bothered by Midoriya’s staring. Though he does, of course, stare back somewhat curiously.] What...? [The thumb gets his lips to part, but instead of being sexy, he tries to playfully bite what he can.
Then his head butts at Midoriya’s hand before settling in it for a moment. Until he realizes and lifts it back up.] Got an eye problem, nerd? Why the hell you starin’ at me? [He manages to get his eyes open after reaching up to scrub one with his knuckles. This damn beach... and the warm sun, the warmer Midoriya, lying firm beneath him. Dammit.] You been awake this whole time?
[ Midoriya flicks his nose in return and drops his hand at the nape of Bakugou's neck to squeeze. Lying isn't something he's great at but he's decent enough at changing the subject. ]
Mmmhm. Mostly. I was enjoying this, that's all.
[ The moments where they get to relax like this are few and far between and the laziness of this was too much of a draw to resist. The foot planted in the sand braces and pushes, sending them rocking gently back and forth once more. ]
I figure we can stop somewhere and mail everything off on the way back so we don't have to carry it? [ He's absolutely carrying those bags back don't test him. ]
[His nose wrinkles instantly and his eyes squint. He growls, but it’s still thick with sleep and less than half-hearted. The swinging again doesn’t help. He slips down on top of Midoriya like before, jabbing his chin in the other’s chest until he turns his head to the side.] It’s gonna fucking cost an arm and a leg to send that shit back home. [A puff of air blows out of his mouth. It’s fine... His friend better appreciate it.] You ready to go or somethin’?
[Midoriya is not carrying the bags. NOT ALL OF THEM. Bakugou slides his head back and tilts it to peer up at what he can see of Midoriya’s face.]
We can send it all in the same package so it's a little cheaper.
[ Pfft, ready to go? If Bakugou wants to lounge here another four hours he could probably be convinced into it. Sure, he wants to explore the area and see that artist and do a thousand different things but also he wants to enjoy this. He's not making any attempt to rise up. ]
Yeah, yeah. I'm just- I'm thinking?
[ About everything because that's all he knows how to do. They're still young and don't have to get married any time soon; they can wait forever, really, if they wanted to. Realistically, there might be an issue with their perception if they're public about their relationship which may make getting to number one harder; do they want to risk that? It's worth the risk, in Midoriya's mind, and it is in Bakugou's from what he can tell. Their friends would support them, there isn't any doubt about that. Even All Might and their parents would - do, in some cases. ]
Sometimes... it just hits me how lucky I am. That's all. [ Lucky things turned out like this. Lucky Bakugou loves him as much as Midoriya does. Lucky their friends and family are so good. Midoriya tilts his head accommodatingly and lets his eyes close, smiling. ] When you do wanna get up we can get something on the way back. I'll make dinner.
Like sending it in a big package is gonna keep it from being a fucking million dollars.
[Just let him bitch, Midoriya! He just wants to bitch for bitching's sake. It's fine.
Anyway, don't say lovey-dovey shit like that, he hates it. The edges of the highest parts of his face flush under the skin. He scoffs, a suck of his teeth and a grunt all at once. But he doesn't say anything so Midoriya won't think to--not even tease him, but keep going.] That depends on what you're fucking making.
They gotta have ingredients from home here, right? Make me somethin' from home. I'm tired of eating stupid American food. [He shifts, wobbling the hammock unintentionally a little.] I haven't fucking had a decent round of sushi or sashimi in ages.
They put too much shit on it. How do they even taste the fish? It's fucking stupid.
That flush is almost expected at this point and Midoriya knows he doesn't have any room to talk but he grins lazily at Bakugou and dares to trace his fingers along the edge of pink cheeks, trailing up to the curve of an ear to trace that, too. ]
Careful-
[ He plants a foot down with a laugh, keeping them from tilting too wildly and spilling out and the arm around Bakugou's shoulder tightens just enough that he can lean himself up and pull the other man down, stealing a kiss. He can do it but his sushi always looks a little...off. Thankfully it doesn't need to look nice to be good to eat. ]
There's actually a restaurant here that's...well, it's really expensive, and won't taste like home but people said that it tasted great. They take all the fish locally or if they can get it there in a day. We can try that sometime before we leave. [ Just in case there's any doubt here: ] I'll make you something tonight, though. We can see if there's somewhere on the walk home.
[Again, he ducks his head and shoves his face into the curve of Midoriya's warm neck. Don't hecking kiss him. Luckily, though, it makes him settle on top of Midoriya in the hammock again.] It's better than any other shitty fake sushi. [Going before they leave, or so help him. Fresh fish? Spicy fresh fish? Give him.]
We'll go after the damn post office. [Maybe. If they get up. Bakugou sounds incredibly lazy and comfortable. He mutters something in Midoriya's neck, but it's muffled. Sounds maybe something like "smells good." He at least isn't sniffing, only inhaling and exhaling.
He is biting. Gently, first planting his lips on Midoriya's neck and the ropey muscle beneath, then hiking his teeth under the jawline, back toward the ear. Shouldn't have kissed him. Now they're going to have to fuck in a hammock on the beach yards away from the vendor who rented him the damn thing.]
[ The promise is a yawned, sleepy slur, Midoriya's fist clenching determinedly for a split second before it flops flat on the muscles of Bakugou's back.
Best tasting that's reasonably available where they are. But hey. He's right about that much, though; it'll be better than the crap they sell at grocery stores that looks like maybe, once upon a time, it had been a fish. There's gotta be a store that'll be able to hook them up somewhere he just has to find it and hope it's on the walk back. ]
Eventually, ye- [ Oh, kisses. Oh, teeth. Midoriya doesn't yelp but it's a close thing, a whole-body twitch running through him as he's torn between pushing Bakugou's head back and encouraging it because they're both absolute disasters. He settles for curling a hand into the hair at the back of Bakugou's head and pulling just firm enough to get his lips and teeth away. ] You're gonna get us kicked off the beach, Kacchan.
[Something like a growl rattles out of his throat when his pulled head gets the neck out of the reach of his lips and teeth. The flush on his face isn't from embarrassment anymore, and he looks decided put-out about being stopped and, furthermore, scolded.]
It'd be worth it.
[Carefully, he pulls back on the gripping hand, testing whether Midoriya will let him go or just continue to tease him with the firm hair holding.] I'd make sure no one could fucking see us. [But he's a good rule boy, so he abandons the taunt and shifts his legs off the hammock to the ground before hefting himself up.] Come on.
[When he stands, he tries to drag Midoriya with him without dumping the both of them in the sand or against the table.] We got shit to ship and food to get. You think I'm gonna fucking spoil you all day or somethin'? [Nevermind that he has to shove his hand in one of his pockets and shift himself up beneath his waistband so he isn't running around with a tent. SHUT UP.]
[ He doesn't want to stop either but they're in public and he worries. Like an apology, he uses a hand in Bakugou's hair to guide him into another kiss but pulls back before it goes too far on either side. He has to adjust himself as well and then makes the mistake of glancing over again, catching sight of Bakugou with mussed hair and his hat doing the same.
At some point, he figures, doing normal couple stuff like kissing and snuggling won't make his dick furiously interested but he doesn't know when that point is going to be. Hopefully, soon, because he cannot keep getting erections because they're both idiots.
Determinedly, he zooms over to the bags and scoops them up with a rustle, still painfully pink. A smoother, or braver person would have purred you and taken off but Midoriya gets as far as shaping the y and can't. ]
There's the gym at the hotel, I was going to see if they had weights? I don't want to get out of practice. [ The bags rustle in his hands as he piles them into one and then hooks fingers into Bakugou's pants dangerously close to where he's arranged himself. ] It's a hero hotel. They have a room built for people to work out with their quirks.

Bakugou's trying, here, and Midoriya is so full of affection he feels like he's going to burst. ]
I just...do. Why would I want or need anyone else like this?
[ He's kissed other people before. Had fumbling make-out sessions. Everything else, though, was with Bakugou. For years because there's never been anyone else. The mention of Todoroki and Uraraka get a little shrug. He loves them to death and yeah, sure, if things were different maybe? That'd probably only make things worse not assuage his fears, though, so Midoriya uses a newly freed hand to grip the back of Bakugou's neck, tugging him into a kiss. Thinking isn't getting him anywhere; he needs to take a page out of Bakugou's book and just act. Lighting flickers over his fingertips, sparks between their lips and underneath the scent of sunscreen he smells burnt sugar.
When he's done kissing Bakugou within an inch of his life, he leans back against the hammock and presses a lingering kiss to the inside of Bakugou's wrist. ]
How do you know for certain?
no subject
Date: 2019-01-27 03:50 am (UTC)Well. It answers his question in a better way than words.
He has to pause a moment to catch his breath, face flushed and lime-colored lightning popping softly down his neck and over his shoulders. The hand not supporting his weight drops down over Midoriya’s neck and jaw. He brushes his thumb under Midoriya’s bottom lip, brows pulled together.] I just know. [Sure, he’s smooched Kirishima, Urakara just because she was dumb, Kaminari almost for the same reason. None of them had the same spark or drive Midoriya did. Nothing was quite as fulfilling.]
No one else would ever be able to fucking keep up with me.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-27 05:08 pm (UTC)No one else would be able to beat you.
[ Midoriya tugs Bakugou's head down by his ridiculous hat and can't stop the slow curl of possessiveness that curls through him at the thought of Bakugou in his merch. Another kiss is bitten into his mouth, demanding and then softening into something gentler as his hand curls over the nape of his neck, smooths over his skin.
When it's finished, Midoriya licks the flickers of lighting, the taste of ozone off of his lower lip, pupils dark against the electric green of his eyes. ]
Kissing's never been like that with anyone else, either.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-28 03:10 pm (UTC)Mn.
[He gently pinches his lips between his teeth, like he can feel the last kiss Midoriya gifted him. There's nothing better than seeing the ethereal gleam in Midoriya's eyes; latent energy from the quirk igniting the color of them. If he could eat Midoriya's eyes, he probably would. If he could eat any part of Midoriya, actually, he probably would. But he's an asshole, not a cannibal.
Lazily (and maybe he's hiding a little), he tucks his face into the strong curve of Midoriya's neck, resting his cheek and jaw on Midoriya's shoulder. The beach is warm but not burning here, and he's so relaxed.]
Hey. [He pauses for a moment, but doesn't lift his head.] Anyone fucking else think they got their eye on you? [People he should keep an eye on himself. Sorry, he's kind of garbagely possessive now that Midoriya happens to be willing.]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-28 05:24 pm (UTC)I...I don't know?
[ He knows in an abstract way that people want him. He knows that there are people who like him like that, but as to who they are he has no idea. He's too focused on ten thousand other things. ]
No one that I'm aware of. [ No one that matters.
Midoriya's scarred hand slides down the back of Bakguou's tank top, feeling out over the meat of his shoulders, scratching blunt nails lightly up his spine. He doesn't need to ask the question in turn, because he knows. ]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 09:07 pm (UTC)[He’s aware Midoriya technically belongs to no one, not with this much acquired sass and confidence, not with OFA. Still, it won’t stop him from showing his teeth, barking instead of biting. Try him. Uraraka, Todoroki? Fight him.
He turns his face briefly into Midoriya’s neck again and rumbles. One hand slides under Midoriya’s shirt at the waist, resting wide on the skin between the hip and the bottom of the ribs. Ugh. He’s going to hate getting up and moving.] M’gonna... fall asleep or some shit... probably. [Just as a forewarning to Midoriya when he inevitably passes out on top in the very faintly swaying hammock.]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 09:23 pm (UTC)[ It's too lazy to really be chastising; the sun makes Bakugou warm and sleepy and Bakugou's on top of him. It's doing the same exact thing, the combination of sun and contentment mixing with the faint sounds of water and white noise of people chattering. It's peaceful.
He takes a few photos of them while Bakugou's laid out over him, grinning through the mess of blonde hair. One he sets as his new background. The others are saved, filed away for him to look at later while he lets himself drift. One leg drops down to rock them back and forth, content to lay here until the sun goes down or Bakugou gets bored. Right now, though, the soft pressure of his hand against Midoriya's side combined with the weight of him like some sort of angry anxiety blanket means the most Midoriya does is just touch him, drinking it all in. ]
I'll wake you up if anything interesting happens.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 09:50 pm (UTC)Finally, he moves, lazily, scrubbing his face gently into Midoriya’s neck and collar as his body flings him out of light sleep. His head lifts a tad, eyes squinted and blinking, first at Midoriya and then around as if he had forgotten a moment where they were. The best part: his voice is back to crackling with that deep, pleasant drawl.]
How long was I fuckin’ out?
[There’s an angry red imprint of Midoriya’s clothes on the side of his face, and a streaking whelp where he had pressed into Midoriya’s collar bone.]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 10:15 pm (UTC)This, too: Bakugou's voice when it's the low rumbling growl. Midoriya thunks his head back against the hammock and laughs helplessly rather than answering right away. ]
Mmm, doesn't matter. [ He wasn't paying attention. Midoriya traces the line against Bakugou's cheek, cupping it with his palm a moment later just so his thumb can drag over the swell of Bakugou's bottom lip. For a moment, he does the same thing Bakugou does to him; the staring, the bright-eyed intensity where he's clearly working over something to say and then shaking it off. ] We've still got most of a bottle of rum or water, if you need.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 11:42 pm (UTC)[Luckily, he’s content and drowsy. Midoriya’s affection doesn’t bother him by making him embarrassed, nor does he seems bothered by Midoriya’s staring. Though he does, of course, stare back somewhat curiously.] What...? [The thumb gets his lips to part, but instead of being sexy, he tries to playfully bite what he can.
Then his head butts at Midoriya’s hand before settling in it for a moment. Until he realizes and lifts it back up.] Got an eye problem, nerd? Why the hell you starin’ at me? [He manages to get his eyes open after reaching up to scrub one with his knuckles. This damn beach... and the warm sun, the warmer Midoriya, lying firm beneath him. Dammit.] You been awake this whole time?
no subject
Date: 2019-01-29 11:51 pm (UTC)[ Midoriya flicks his nose in return and drops his hand at the nape of Bakugou's neck to squeeze. Lying isn't something he's great at but he's decent enough at changing the subject. ]
Mmmhm. Mostly. I was enjoying this, that's all.
[ The moments where they get to relax like this are few and far between and the laziness of this was too much of a draw to resist. The foot planted in the sand braces and pushes, sending them rocking gently back and forth once more. ]
I figure we can stop somewhere and mail everything off on the way back so we don't have to carry it? [ He's absolutely carrying those bags back don't test him. ]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-30 12:06 am (UTC)[His nose wrinkles instantly and his eyes squint. He growls, but it’s still thick with sleep and less than half-hearted. The swinging again doesn’t help. He slips down on top of Midoriya like before, jabbing his chin in the other’s chest until he turns his head to the side.] It’s gonna fucking cost an arm and a leg to send that shit back home. [A puff of air blows out of his mouth. It’s fine... His friend better appreciate it.] You ready to go or somethin’?
[Midoriya is not carrying the bags. NOT ALL OF THEM. Bakugou slides his head back and tilts it to peer up at what he can see of Midoriya’s face.]
Hey. You... alright, you shithead?
no subject
Date: 2019-01-30 12:27 am (UTC)[ Pfft, ready to go? If Bakugou wants to lounge here another four hours he could probably be convinced into it. Sure, he wants to explore the area and see that artist and do a thousand different things but also he wants to enjoy this. He's not making any attempt to rise up. ]
Yeah, yeah. I'm just- I'm thinking?
[ About everything because that's all he knows how to do. They're still young and don't have to get married any time soon; they can wait forever, really, if they wanted to. Realistically, there might be an issue with their perception if they're public about their relationship which may make getting to number one harder; do they want to risk that? It's worth the risk, in Midoriya's mind, and it is in Bakugou's from what he can tell. Their friends would support them, there isn't any doubt about that. Even All Might and their parents would - do, in some cases. ]
Sometimes... it just hits me how lucky I am. That's all. [ Lucky things turned out like this. Lucky Bakugou loves him as much as Midoriya does. Lucky their friends and family are so good. Midoriya tilts his head accommodatingly and lets his eyes close, smiling. ] When you do wanna get up we can get something on the way back. I'll make dinner.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-31 06:13 pm (UTC)[Just let him bitch, Midoriya! He just wants to bitch for bitching's sake. It's fine.
Anyway, don't say lovey-dovey shit like that, he hates it. The edges of the highest parts of his face flush under the skin. He scoffs, a suck of his teeth and a grunt all at once. But he doesn't say anything so Midoriya won't think to--not even tease him, but keep going.] That depends on what you're fucking making.
They gotta have ingredients from home here, right? Make me somethin' from home. I'm tired of eating stupid American food. [He shifts, wobbling the hammock unintentionally a little.] I haven't fucking had a decent round of sushi or sashimi in ages.
They put too much shit on it. How do they even taste the fish? It's fucking stupid.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-31 07:42 pm (UTC)That flush is almost expected at this point and Midoriya knows he doesn't have any room to talk but he grins lazily at Bakugou and dares to trace his fingers along the edge of pink cheeks, trailing up to the curve of an ear to trace that, too. ]
Careful-
[ He plants a foot down with a laugh, keeping them from tilting too wildly and spilling out and the arm around Bakugou's shoulder tightens just enough that he can lean himself up and pull the other man down, stealing a kiss. He can do it but his sushi always looks a little...off. Thankfully it doesn't need to look nice to be good to eat. ]
There's actually a restaurant here that's...well, it's really expensive, and won't taste like home but people said that it tasted great. They take all the fish locally or if they can get it there in a day. We can try that sometime before we leave. [ Just in case there's any doubt here: ] I'll make you something tonight, though. We can see if there's somewhere on the walk home.
no subject
Date: 2019-01-31 08:12 pm (UTC)[Again, he ducks his head and shoves his face into the curve of Midoriya's warm neck. Don't hecking kiss him. Luckily, though, it makes him settle on top of Midoriya in the hammock again.] It's better than any other shitty fake sushi. [Going before they leave, or so help him. Fresh fish? Spicy fresh fish? Give him.]
We'll go after the damn post office. [Maybe. If they get up. Bakugou sounds incredibly lazy and comfortable. He mutters something in Midoriya's neck, but it's muffled. Sounds maybe something like "smells good." He at least isn't sniffing, only inhaling and exhaling.
He is biting. Gently, first planting his lips on Midoriya's neck and the ropey muscle beneath, then hiking his teeth under the jawline, back toward the ear. Shouldn't have kissed him. Now they're going to have to fuck in a hammock on the beach yards away from the vendor who rented him the damn thing.]
no subject
Date: 2019-01-31 10:44 pm (UTC)[ The promise is a yawned, sleepy slur, Midoriya's fist clenching determinedly for a split second before it flops flat on the muscles of Bakugou's back.
Best tasting that's reasonably available where they are. But hey. He's right about that much, though; it'll be better than the crap they sell at grocery stores that looks like maybe, once upon a time, it had been a fish. There's gotta be a store that'll be able to hook them up somewhere he just has to find it and hope it's on the walk back. ]
Eventually, ye- [ Oh, kisses. Oh, teeth. Midoriya doesn't yelp but it's a close thing, a whole-body twitch running through him as he's torn between pushing Bakugou's head back and encouraging it because they're both absolute disasters. He settles for curling a hand into the hair at the back of Bakugou's head and pulling just firm enough to get his lips and teeth away. ] You're gonna get us kicked off the beach, Kacchan.
no subject
Date: 2019-02-02 06:37 pm (UTC)It'd be worth it.
[Carefully, he pulls back on the gripping hand, testing whether Midoriya will let him go or just continue to tease him with the firm hair holding.] I'd make sure no one could fucking see us. [But he's a good rule boy, so he abandons the taunt and shifts his legs off the hammock to the ground before hefting himself up.] Come on.
[When he stands, he tries to drag Midoriya with him without dumping the both of them in the sand or against the table.] We got shit to ship and food to get. You think I'm gonna fucking spoil you all day or somethin'? [Nevermind that he has to shove his hand in one of his pockets and shift himself up beneath his waistband so he isn't running around with a tent. SHUT UP.]
The hell you wanna do tonight after dinner?
no subject
Date: 2019-02-02 07:20 pm (UTC)At some point, he figures, doing normal couple stuff like kissing and snuggling won't make his dick furiously interested but he doesn't know when that point is going to be. Hopefully, soon, because he cannot keep getting erections because they're both idiots.
Determinedly, he zooms over to the bags and scoops them up with a rustle, still painfully pink. A smoother, or braver person would have purred you and taken off but Midoriya gets as far as shaping the y and can't. ]
There's the gym at the hotel, I was going to see if they had weights? I don't want to get out of practice. [ The bags rustle in his hands as he piles them into one and then hooks fingers into Bakugou's pants dangerously close to where he's arranged himself. ] It's a hero hotel. They have a room built for people to work out with their quirks.
