Midoriya groaned as he was kissed awake. "No. Let me sleep." "I did. It's 8:30." Midoriya jumped up. "I'm gonna be late! Why didn't you wake me?" Dabi chuckled and mimicked Midoriya. "'No. Let me sleep. Work can suck my ass.'" Midoriya ran out of the bathroom frantically buttoning up his shirt. "And you listened to me?" "Of course. Why wouldn't I?" Midoriya rushed out of the house. "I'll be back!" "Stay safe!" Dabi stood in the doorway of his home. He loved the quirkless male. He really did. That's why he felt he had to. Midoriya worked an office job, just taking phone calls for heroes. It wasn't the hero work he wanted, but he got to work closely with his favorites. Dabi quit his deadend job, but he didn't tell Midoriya. He didn't want him to worry. He went to the league of Villains lair for his own debrief.
Hours later he got home before his lover and worked on dinner. Dabi checked time. "4. He should be home soon." Dabi got the table set up. "Three. Two. One." Right on cue, Midoriya came in and threw himself on the couch. "Rough day?" "So. Many. Calls." "It's ok baby. I made katsudon." Midoriya jumped from the couch and sat at the table. "My favorite!" "Yeah. I know." Midoriya began to eat, and teared up. "It's just like mom's." "That's because I got the recipe from her. Speaking of your mom, she wants to visit this weekend." "You talked to her?" Dabi nodded. "I know your busy at work. And can't always call her. So I make sure she knows what's going on." After they finished eating, the two sat in the living room watching tv. "There's nothing good on." "There never is. How about a game?" Midoriya nodded and left the grab the consoles. Dabi's phone went off. "Really? Baby! I have to go!" "What? Where? Why?" "Work. They called me in for a late night." Dabi lied. The two shared a gentle kissed. "Ok. Then I'll see you in the morning?" "I'll try to make it home before you leave." "Dabi?" "Hmm?" "I love you." Dabi smiled. "I love you too, Izu."
