Chapter 50
Let it be known that I didn't want to leave you all on that cliffhanger, but it was 4:30 am when I uploaded the last chapter. I woke up at 5:30 yesterday. I had been up for twenty three hours. I needed sleep, dudes.
"Shinsou!" I shouted as the club dissolved into chaos at the gunshots. Everyone was scrambling toward the door, pushing and shoving other drunk clubgoers in an effort to get out.
While everyone was heading for the entrance, Todoroki and I pushed our way through the crowd, towards the back. I was panting from the effort of elbowing my way through, and I swear to god, Todoroki actually threw a punch to get past. Soon he was following me down the hall at a sprint.
I threw the door open and we both tried to squeeze through the opening at the same time. It didn't work the best, but we stumbled onto the scene regardless. The first thing I noticed was Shinsou standing in the center of the room, his arms crossed and watching us both with an amused smile. "I don't know if I should be touched by your concern or offended you thought I couldn't handle it," he slyly remarked.
My eyes flashed to the couch, Shigaraki's slumped-over figure catching my attention. In the dim lightening, I could barely see the blood trailing from his chest, blending into his black hoodie. "You killed him," I stated the obvious, out of breath and tense. My eyes drifted back to Shinsou. "You're okay."
"I don't break pinky promises, Iz."
I was so happy I could cry. Well, I did cry. There was no other way I could react, all the fear I'd felt for the past two years officially washed away. Shigaraki was dead and everyone I loved was finally safe. I threw myself at Shinsou without a second thought, clinging to him tightly as it fully sank in. "You scared the shit out of me," I breathed, my shoulders shaking slightly as more tears escaped. "What the hell happened to the music?"
Shinsou chuckled, his arms wrapped around me the second I'd entered his space. "Dumb fuck thought I wouldn't shoot if there was nothing to cover the noise."
"He knew our plan?" Todoroki asked from behind us, reminding me that he was still there. I'd be so relieved to see Shinsou alive, I'd forgotten he'd followed me. I released the purpled-haired teen slowly, taking a step back.
I could tell Shinsou wasn't happy with my actions, but he didn't comment on it. "He suspected, but was too fucking stupid to actually save himself," he replied with a shrug.
"Iz?!"
"Izuku!"
Muffled shouting came from outside, footsteps following after. Eijirou, Katsuki, Ashido, Uraraka, Sero, and Kaminari all came barreling into the room a few seconds later. As soon as two sets of crimson eyes found me, I was engulfed in another hug, four arms wrapping around me. I was finally able to breathe freely again, wrapping one of my arms around each of the boys. "He's dead," I sobbed into one of their shoulders, I wasn't even sure whose.
"We have to get out of here before the cops show up." I recognized Sero's voice off to my right. He must have gone straight for Todoroki. Now that the major threat was taken care of, I could finally focus on how adorable they were.
"What happens when the cops find him?" Ashido asked in a quiet voice. I ran a hand over my face, trying to dry away the tears there as I stepped back slightly. I didn't get far, being pulled right back in. I resigned myself to my fate and just looked over my shoulder at her. Her distant eyes were locked onto the dead body.
"Dabi will talk his way out of it," Todoroki answered for me. "He always does."
I took a long inhale, trying to steady myself. "Can we go home now?" I asked them all in a weak voice.
"Of course," Eijirou said to me, as he and Katsuki finally released me. Well, kind of. I was crushed between them anymore, but Eijirou's arm wrapped around my waist and Katsuki kept a firm hold on my hand. I was more than okay with it. "Meet at the garage?" he asked.
Todoroki nodded, seeing as he was the only other person to have driven that night.
We quickly made our way out of the club, already hearing sirens in the distance. It didn't matter though, we were all loaded into Ei's truck and Todoroki's car, speeding down the road before we ever saw lights.
Todoroki, Sero, Uraraka, Ashido, and Shinsou all went in the dual-haired teen's car, leaving just my boyfriends, me, and Kaminari in Ei's truck. The electric blond huffed something about bros before hoes and he climbed into the back. I was about to follow him, but Katsuki picked me up a little too easily and sat me in his lap up front.
"It's adorable that you think I'm letting go of you any time soon," the blond whispered next to my ear as Eijirou twisted his key and the truck roared to life around us.
******************************
We were once again gathered in the boys' garage. Eijirou, Katsuki, and I took our usual spots on the couch, Ashido and Uraraka claiming the other half. Everyone else had found various odd chairs around the garage to pull up, forming a semi-circle in front of the couch. We were all passing a blunt around in celebration. We had just successfully committed murder, after all.
"Kinda fucked up that I could get sent to prison for that," Shinsou mused, handing the joint to me.
I took a long drag before responding. "Almost as weird as getting sent to prison for some other guy blowing up the gym. At least you actually committed the crime."
"You didn't actually go to prison," Uraraka said with a playful eye roll. "And neither are you, Shinsou. Dabi's taking care of it."
"I'm not thrilled we're putting all our trust into him," Sero grumbled, slouching into his chair a little further.
Todoroki shrugged next to him, letting his head roll to the side. "He's my blood brother, Dori and Shin are my spirit brothers. He'll take care of it."
Shinsou and I both looked at him with equal levels of disgust. "Never call us your spirit brothers ever again," the purple-haired teen said with a violent shiver. "Sounds nasty."
"It's spiritual and beautiful, you're just a fucking brute," Todoroki whined, reaching his hand out like he was trying to smack him, but he couldn't quite reach. I loved stoned Todoroki.
Eijirou turned a questioning look to me, a teasing smile on his lips. "Is he always like this when he smokes?"
"Pretty much," I replied with a giggle. "Roki is my favorite person to smoke with."
"Dude," Shinsou whined, throwing his head back. "I literally just killed someone for you, and I don't even get the favorite smoking buddy title? Are you fucking kidding me?"
I laughed harder, my high full set in at that point. "You're my favorite person to have deep conversations with while stoned. Roki is just silly, and I adore his commentary. Take it or leave it."
Shinsou shook his head with an amused smile at me. "You're so damn hard to please."
"Mm," I hummed, leaning further into the laps of my boyfriends. "Ei and Kats do it just fine."
"And he's officially too high!" Uraraka exclaimed, falling into hysterics next to her girlfriend. Ashido and her hadn't said anything about being official yet, but I had decided right then and there that they were girlfriends.
"Says you!" I cried in retaliation, lifting my head to glare at her. "I bet you can't even stand right now."
She shot me a challenging look and clamored to her feet. "Ta-da!" she said, her arms outstretched in a big show. "Whoa," she mumbled, starting to tip.
The group fell into laughter as Ashido caught her and pulled her back down onto the couch. The brunette landed with a huff, giggling quietly as Ash placed a kiss on her forehead.
"Now that Shigaraki's dead," Kaminari spoke up for the first time. Apparently, smoking made him actually able to focus, and he was a lot quieter while stoned. "Does that mean it's all over? We just get to, like, hang out and stuff like normal people?"
"Yes, dumbass," Katsuki responded, slouching a little more into the couch in a relaxed manner. "We get to hang out like normal people now."
The other boy's eyes lit up at the confirmation. "That's so awesome, dude."
I laughed at the response, letting my head rest against Eijirou's shoulder. "Yeah, it's pretty fucking awesome."
ITS DONE!!!!! sequel coming soon.
