Only One String Attached

Part 4

A/N - And we're back. I had a weird few weeks so writing was not a main priority, but I pushed to get this chapter out as a celebration for me reaching 100 followers on Twitter. Anyway, I finally have a better idea where the story is going so the tags are gonna change a bit, but FEAR NOT, smut and fluff will still be VERY VERY prominent.

Without further ado, please enjoy part 4.

"You're sure you're okay with this?" Eijiro asks for the fourth time that day.

"Red, for the last time, if I wasn't fucking okay with it, I would have told you." Katsuki sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. "I don't want to make a habit of spending time with your friends, especially because of how fucking loud they are. But if meeting them is that important, I'll meet them."

"Okay, but you really don't have to meet them." Eijiro fiddled with his hem, as they came to a stop in front of Mina and Denki's apartment building.

"Ei. If I have to say it's fine one more time, we are going home." Katsuki pressed his head against the headrest, with another sigh.

"I knew you didn't want to do this." Eijiro whispered, earning a groan.

"Eijiro, look at me." Katsuki demanded, waiting until he turned to face him. "The only thing I don't want to fucking do is continue having the same damn conversation. But it seems like maybe you're the one who doesn't want to do this." He raised an eyebrow and Eijiro shuffled in his seat.

"I do. I'm just nervous. What if you guys don't get along? Or if you don't like them? Or they don't like you?" He rambled quickly, before a comforting hand came to rest on his thigh.

"Why does it matter what any of us think? You're a fucking adult right?" Eijiro nodded. "Okay then it shouldn't matter if we get along. We are two separate parts of your life. Okay?" He waited for another nod. "Good, now let's go inside, and get this over with."

Katsuki didn't wait for an answer, just moved to climb out of the car, leaving Eijiro alone. He took a deep breath and moved to join him.

It had been a few weeks since his moms had stopped by, and after a lot of thinking, he finally decided to explain Katsuki and his' arrangement to Mina and Denki, which had gone a lot better than expected. They did demand to meet the alpha who was spending so much time with him, though, wanting to put their stamp of approval on him. He was hesitant to do it, knowing his friends, but here they were, knocking on the apartment door.

"Coooooming!" Denki sang from the other side, and Eijiro could feel Katsuki tense beside him, in preparation to deal with the loud blonde. The door swung open to reveal Denki with a very wide smile, who looked over the alpha before letting out a whistle. "Mina! You owe me 20 bucks!" He called over his shoulder.

"Damn. Really?" Mina's voice gradually got louder as she drew closer.

"Yep. Hot and blonde. Plus he's definitely not old." His eyes continued to rake up and down the alpha's body.

"Well shit. Ei, you always went for brunettes. Why did you switch it up on me?" Mina pouted.

"Guys. Please stop." Eijiro whined, earning only laughter from Denki and Mina.

"Alright, alright. C'mon in, guys." Mina gestured, stepping aside and allowing both of them inside. Katsuki stepped forward first into the shark infested waters, and Eijiro was quick on his heels. Denki maintained his positioning by the door, admiring the alpha as he walked past. Eijiro punched his arm lightly as he passed, earning a pout as Denki rubbed his arm. Denki's face quickly flipped to a grin as he shut the door.
