All Strings Attached

Fighting at 2am

This is part 1 of 2 of the double update!!

"What's on your mind?" Bakugo asked as he shut and locked the door behind him. They had just gotten back from their little weekend away with their band and the green haired man was extremely silent most of the drive.

"What do you mean?" Midoriya questioned as he walked into the kitchen, grabbing a cold bottle of water from the fridge.

"You've been pretty silent since last night." The blond stated as he followed his boyfriend into the kitchen. "I can tell when something is wrong, so what's wrong?" He asked once more as he landed next to the love of his life.

"That song Shinso played.. was it about you?" Midoriya asked quietly as his eyes fell to the ground, suddenly not having the courage to look his boyfriend in the face.

"Possibly." Bakugo responded with a sigh. "He wrote it a couple of weeks after I called off our no strings attached relationship, but I'm not positive if it's related or not." He explained simply, hoping this wouldn't blow up into a fight. The couple had rarely ever fought, but it's become a common thing since Shinso's walked into the picture.

"You can't fake the hurt that was in his eyes and his voice Katsuki." Midoriya responded as he took a sip from his water, not entirely sure what to believe anymore.

"I'm not sure what you want me to say Izu.." The blond whispered. He didn't want to say the wrong thing and upset his boyfriend. "I didn't have a real relationship with him, never." He started as he took a few steps towards the other man. "If he had feelings for me, it's news to me."

"What if he did though? What if I stole you from him?" Midoriya asked as he set the water bottle on the counter before turning to his boyfriend. "What if you two were meant to be together and I ruined it? What if he's supposed to be your soulmate?"

"Do you know how stupid that sounds?" The blond scoffed as he rolled his eyes.

"Did you just call me stupid?" Midoriya asked in a small state of shock. Bakugo's eyes widened in realization of the words that came out of his mouth. Time was frozen as the two stared at each other.

"No, I didn't mean it like that. It's just two in the damn morning and we're both exhausted." He said with a heavy sigh as he noticed the man across from his begin breathing heavier. Within seconds, Midoriya's breathing was staggered and there was giant lump in his throat as he gripped onto the counter to keep from falling over. He felt like he was going to throw up as he his eyes became clouded with the tears pooling in his eyelids.

"Hey, hey-" Bakugo whispered gently as he set a hand on his boyfriends back in a soothing manner. "Take a deep breath babe." He whispered as tears began rolling down Midoriya's face. The freckled man began hyperventilating as he fell to the ground. Bakugo wrapped his arms around his boyfriend as he fell down as well, making the other man land in his lap.

"Deep breaths baby." Bakugo whispered in a pleading tone as he wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into his chest, making him listen to his heart beat.

"K-Kat-" Midoriya whimpered as he closed his eyes, attempting to slow his breathing by listening to his boyfriends rapid heart beat.

"Hey, can you tell five things you hear?" Bakugo whispered as he gently began running his right hand through the green haired mans messy curls. Midoriya kept his eyes closed as he began listing sounds off in his head, knowing he would choke if he said them out loud.

Katsuki's heartbeat, the sound of the refrigerator humming, the A/C in the living room, the slow drip of the bathroom sink, the tree's blowing in the wind. He took a small breath when he was done, letting the other man know it was slowly working.

"Can you tell me four things you can see?" Bakugo asked gently as he continued soothing his boyfriend.

"T-the dried soda o-on the kitchen f-floor." He started, making his boyfriend laugh slightly as he recalled them spilling it right before they left and completely forgetting to clean it up. "Th-the picture o-of us on t-the wall is cr-crooked." He panted as he felt his heart rate slow down. Bakugo looked up to the wall on the other side of fridge, inspecting the framed picture for himself.

"Yeah, I guess it is." He replied with a small smile. "Hey, you got two more things?" He asked gently.

"The r-red bow from l-last Christmas is st-still stuck to the s-side of the fridge." He added as his eyes focused on the small red bow as he remembered picking it off of his present before sticking on his boyfriends face last year. They kept passing it back and forth before they decided to permanently stick it on the fridge. He glanced around their open kitchen before his eyes settled on the small stack of shoes by the front door. "Someone t-tied my laces together a-again." He pointed out as he looked to his black and white checkered shoes.

"Probably Shitty Hair." Bakugo replied with a small laugh. "Three things you can feel?"

"Your chest moving my head w-with every breath y-you take." He said as his breathing began to even out. "Your hand rubbing m-my back and y-your lips kissing my head every f-few seconds."

"Good job." Bakugo whispered with encouragement as he tightened his grip on the man in his lap. "Two things you can smell?"

"The lemon scented f-floor cleaner and I can still smell the campfire from l-last night of both of our clothes."

"Yeah, we need a shower." The blond replied with a small laugh as they reached the final sense. "One thing you can taste?"

"I know what I want to taste." Midoriya responded as he gently lifted his head from his boyfriends chest, looking into his ruby eyes. Bakugo smirked as he leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on his boyfriends swollen pink lips. "You taste like black coffee."

"Look Izu.. there was never anything romantic between me and Shinso. You are the first and only person I've ever had romantic feelings for and you will definitely be the last. I'm sorry that I said your feelings were stupid, because they're not. They are completely valid and I'm sorry." Bakugo whispered in an apologetic tone as he stared deeply into his lovers beautiful green eyes.

"I'm sorry too." Midoriya whispered before burying his head into his boyfriends chest once more. "I'm sorry for being jealous and taking it out on you."

"It's okay, we're okay." The blond whispered as he gently slid his boyfriend from his lap and onto the floor. "Are you ready for bed now, or do you want to talk more?" He asked as he pushed himself to his feet.

"I want to sleep." The green haired man responded as he began slowly pushing himself from the floor. Before he could stand, his boyfriend bent down and scooped him into his arms.

"Then let's go lay down and cuddle." Bakugo whispered as he held his boyfriend bridal style as he made his way through the apartment, turning off every light on the way.

"Can I be the little spoon tonight?" Midoriya asked as he was placed down gently on his side of the bed.

"Of course love." Bakugo responded with a small laugh before crawling into bed himself. He threw the blanket over himself and the green haired man before wrapping his arm around him, pulling him close. "Goodnight baby, I love you." He whispered as he nuzzled his head against his boyfriends neck.

"I love you too." Midoriya whispered in response before his soft snores filled the room as he finally got the rest he needed.
