Chapter One

Izuku
--------

Izuku peeked around the corner nervously, his newest observation journal clutched tightly in his hands. It had taken a while, but the one that Katsuki had burned back in junior high was completely full. That being the case, Izuku had started a new one.

Junior high seemed so long ago now, as so much had changed. What hadn't fully changed, however, was Katsuki. Admittedly, the blonde had gotten a bit nicer to the green haired male, but that didn't mean that they were completely buddy buddy yet. Still, he did feel a bit silly being so careful not to let Katsuki see the new journal. He didn't think he should just assume Katsuki would destroy it again.

However, almost as soon as the thought to let his guard down crossed his mind, Izuku felt the journal being taken from his hands.

"Watcha got there Deku?" The familiar voice made Izuku jump, followed by a brief curse under his breath as he turned around, doing his best to give the other male an intimidating glare. Though, he found it hard to do when he wasn't truly upset.

"Give it back Kaa-chan." Izuku was pretty proud of himself, he didn't stutter or avoid eye contact with the male. He really had come a long way from middle school.

"Hmm...Make me." Katsuki replied with his usual, confident, and oh so attractive smirk as he started to flip through the pages of the notebook. He didn't really pay much attention to the pages, however. Katsuki only wanted to watch Izuku's reactions. "I'll give you one shot to do something to surprise me and get my guard down. If you can do that, it's yours again. If not..." His free hand exploded, getting his point more then across.

Izuku didn't reply for a moment, both his heart and his mind racing. How could he possibly catch Katsuki off guard? The male knew all of his moves by now, he didn't have any more new ones yet.

There was only one thing he could think of.

Izuku quickly leaned forward, giving Katsuki a quick, soft kiss, before he pulled away, his face lighting up. For a moment, he expected Katsuki to hit him or destroy his journal anyways. But, that didn't happen. Instead, Izuku watched as Katsuki's face turned a bit red, which was an odd, rare sight. The blonde threw the journal to him, which Izuku quickly caught, pressing it to his chest so it wouldn't be snatched away again. Without a single word, Katsuki walked away.

Izuku stood in the hallway, looking in the direction that Katsuki had gone. Confusion was written all over his face as he made a move to follow the other male. That hadn't even been close to the reaction that Izuku had been expecting, and he wanted to talk to Katsuki, just to make sure he hadn't done anything terrible in the other's mind.

However, before he could even take a step in that direction, he felt a hand on his shoulder, before he was moved against the wall, trapped by another body.

Surprised, the male looked up to see Shoto standing above him with an expression Izuku couldn't quite place the emotion behind. He looked...Surprised, angry, sad, and determined all at the same time.

For a moment, neither of them spoke. However, as soon as Izuku opened his mouth to, Shoto cut him off. "Are you dating?" He asked quickly, his tone serious.

At first, Izuku blanked, not knowing who Shoto was talking about. Then, it hit him. Shoto must have seen the kiss.

Once again, Izuku's face heated up as he shook his head, "N-No, we aren't." He replied, his voice shaking a bit from the embarrassment. He'd thought the hall was completely empty.

But, he'd apparently forgotten about Shoto "stalk your friends" Todoroki.

"Do you want to date him?" Shoto asked, his tone the same. Izuku took a moment longer to answer him, looking away shyly.

"I-I...Don't know?" He replied softly, "I've never...Given it any thought..." That was a small lie, however. The thought of dating Katsuki had crossed his mind before, and weaseled it's way into his dreams, some more...Intense than others.

But Katsuki wasn't the only one his brain had a habit of pulling in.

Shoto didn't seem to like that response as he moved closer, trapping Izuku even more and pressing their bodies together. "Look at me." He demanded, and Izuku's brain didn't seem to get even get a chance to think before his body responded, looking into the other male's hetocromatic gaze.

As soon as their eyes met, so did their lips. Unlike the soft, quick kiss Izuku had given Katsuki, Shoto was giving the green haired male a heated one. It had a bit of gentleness behind it, but it seemed clear to Izuku that Shoto wouldn't have minded getting a bit more rough with it.

And Izuku wouldn't have minded if he did.

The kiss went on for a bit, with neither male making a move to pull away or deepen it further. However, soon enough, Shoto pulled away with a satisfied smirk. "Why don't you give that a bit of thought then?" He spoke rather confidently, before he, just like Katsuki, walked away, leaving behind a baffled Izuku.

For a moment, Izuku stood alone in the empty hall, his mind completely blank. It would be difficult for anyone to process what had just occurred. The male reached up, gently brushing his scarred fingers over his lips. Within what seemed to just be a few minutes, he'd kissed both his childhood friend and bully, but also the male whom he'd now consider to be one of his closest friends.

Izuku guessed now he had a good reason to tell the women in his life, and All Might, why they should stop trying to set him up any chance they got. After all, as of that moment, he had way too many "romantic" ideas bouncing around his head that he needed to sort out.

For a minute or so longer, Izuku stood there, using the wall as support. However, the bell snapped him out of his daze. With a bit of a stumbling start, Izuku began running towards class.
