Darkside (BkDK)

~~** Wait, do you hear that? **~~

"... and that's what makes Todoroki so much more handsome than you. But I'm sure you already knew that."

"HAAH?? Half N Half ain't shit next to me! The fuck are you talking about Deku?!" Turning his gaze away from the path ahead of him to bore into the teen beside him, genuine anger rolled off the son of Mitsuki in waves. As he burned a figurative hole into the side of his companion's head, both teens stopped walking all together. Typical reactions to this particular death glare were sweating, rapid breath, trembling, backing away, and general discomfort. Not ... giggling?

"THE FUCK ARE YOU LAUGHING AT NERD???" Grabbing the other by the collar and forcing the greenette to face him, Katsuki was clearly furious while Izuku was obviously in some kind of self-destructive mood. What other possible explanation could his new boyfriend have for insinuating that his nemesis was the better looking of the two? Everybody knows I'm the best looking one in the class. The hell is he on about?

Doing his best to stifle a building fit of laughter at the aptly named Blasty's reaction, Izuku smiled. After a moment of reflection he then decided it was probably in the best interest of both his survival as well as the others blood pressure to explain his seemingly odd declaration. He has no idea how cute he can be when he's confused. Ok so yeah, he kinda looks like an angry Pomeranian but it's still cute. Or maybe I hit my head somewhere -

"An angry fucking WHAT?? You better start talking Nerd, before I REALLY get pissed. Yeah, you were mumbling as usual, Idiot." Even exasperated, Bakugo could easily read his partner's expressions.

"Sorry Kacchan. It's just, you do. But it's a compliment, honest. They are soooo cute! Don't you think so?" A 100 watt smile graced the smaller youth's face and some of the ire rolling off his taller counterpart seemed to melt away.

Some.

"I was asking you about that disarming technique we're about to go work on but you were texting and didn't hear me. I asked again after you said you were going to go to the game night with everyone later but you zoned out again so I decided to try and get your attention. And it worked. Anytime somebody brings up Todoroki you have this laser-like focus on it. Almost makes me jealous." A hint of sadness flickered across jade colored irises at the unconscious admission.

Not wanting to think too much about it, Midoriya quickly continued and brushed past the comment before the other had time to process it. "Like you said, we only have about an hour to train before we need to get cleaned up if we are joining all our friends -"

"-the extras -"

"FRIENDS, for game night but we didn't bring clothes to change into and I still want to eat something first. I didn't think we'd be out this long. What should we do?"

The pair passed through the main gate back to campus as they talked. Once they had begun following the path back to Heights Alliance the still disgruntled looking taller teen directed them to detour through the wooded area just as they had done before leaving several hours earlier. Once they were out of sight of the path he took the other by the hand and pulled him into a tight hug. Smirking and prepared for a little payback he made his voice huskier than usual as he placed his well formed lips just centimeters from his companion's ear and whispered his less than pure idea.

"We could always do some training back in my room later instead~" The instant and powerful flush that filled the face of All Might's secret successor was not only beautiful but also very deeply satisfying. Mission accomplished. What are you gonna do now Deku?

In keeping with the theme of having the blonde off balance when it came to the shorter boy's actions, his answer came in the form of a heated and passionate kiss. Large hands grabbed the leading teen by his shirt front and kept them together in the firm embrace from moments ago as impossibly soft lips moved in sync with his own. All other thoughts melted away as the pair deepened their connection further when the smaller teen nibbled just slightly on the explosive male's lower lip.

An involuntary sound quite similar to a moan but couldn't have been because - Bakugo fucking Katsuki - escaped the taller's throat at the sensation. His explosive hands almost immediately found their way to the others' hips in reply almost without either noticing. Holding one another in place, their tongues began to entwine and all sense of time or their surroundings faded away to the periphery. The grip on Izuku's hips was sure to leave bruises while the fingertips that had moved from Dynamight's shirt to his forearms would definitely be making marks of their own. Neither boy noticed. Neither would have cared if they did. Nothing mattered in that moment beyond the feel of the two together.

However, as with all good things, there is always an end. For the somewhat enthralled and slightly entangled Heros in training the sense of their surroundings could never truly go unmonitored. Even in such pleasurable circumstances. The sound of a distant conversation caught their attention and, much to their mutual disappointment, broke the moment. Resting their heads together and panting slightly, they looked each other in the eye and smiled. Yes, the Pomeranian too.

"I think I'd rather do this than practice disarming villains anytime." The ruby-eyed teen's words were sincere but also loaded and his ever vigilant partner knew exactly why.

"This could be dangerous for our training." Despite their sincere words, both couldn't help but continue to smile. How could they go through the last sixteen years without knowing that THIS was what they needed from each other? They had wasted so much time misunderstanding each other. And themselves. How could they NOT want to make up for it now that they were here?

After collecting themselves a bit more, the duo made their way back to the path unseen by the students they heard minutes earlier. As they walked together in companionable silence a thought occurred to the taller teen. "I know we said we wouldn't really go out of our way to hide this thing between us, but maybe we should?"

"What do you mean Kacchan? I know you don't want to take it all back.... That was pretty clear just now." A slightly smug smirk on the freckled face he probably loved had the blonde scoffing.

"Definitely not, Nerd." Leaning in just for emphasis, Bakugo whispered into the slightly younger youth's already blushing ear. "I haven't even had a chance to tap that ass yet. Why the fuck would I let you go now?" Straightening back up, and pleased with his partner's furiously flushed and slack jawed response, the fiery male continued his earlier point.

"Technically attachments are a kind of weakness. Something a Villain could exploit if they knew. OR some asshole like Xerox Bitch. It's why the school's been harping on us not getting into relationships."

"Our friends would never out us like that. And Monama isn't THAT bad." The acknowledgement that Neito was in fact definitely not an ally to anyone in 1A went overlooked for the time being.

"Your shitty friends aren't the only Extras Dumbass. Past that, imagine what All Might would think if he knew we were making out in the woods instead of trying to beat the crap out of each other. Not to mention Aizawa."

"I don't even want to consider picturing that. I can still feel his capture weapon wrapped around my neck the last time he got mad at us." Shuddering for emphasis the greenette looked to his opposite.

"I might be distracting and confusing for some of our classmates too now that I think about it. They obviously know we're partners, but do you remember how they reacted when we told them we were going to be training as a pair?" Emerald eyes sparked with myrrh at the memory.

"Raccoon Eyes nearly cracked a window with that screech. And didn't Monkey Boy almost pass out? Glasses wouldn't shut up for a week with his lecturing about not hurting you for fun too."

"Ida did what? I don't remember that." Unconsciously, the curly haired teen brought his hand to his lip and began to pinch the soft flesh as he tried to recall the engine quirk users' reactions to All Might's announcement that day. That was, until surprisingly dexterous fingers pulled his hand away.

"Bad bunny." Just then, several members of class 1A who were chasing each other around in an effort to regain some object from a panicked looking Mineta As they did, they got to hear a sound few even knew existed in nature.

The sound of a wild Bakugo laughing.

Not a chuckle or a scoff or a sarcastic outburst. A genuine heartfelt laugh. The foreign sound immediately caught everyone's attention as they stopped in their tracks to find the source. However, the unusual but not unwelcome sound was short lived as the creator of the astonishing melody noticed eyes examining him. A scowl and loud declaration of "What the fuck are you extras staring at?" snapped everyone back to their activities. Clearly they had all hallucinated.

Clearly.
