"Karaoke night!" Nemuri yelled. "Thanks for inviting us!"
"A V. I. P. is here, of course he got you guys free entries." You walked next to a disguised Hizashi in the group, consisting of you two, Nemuri, and an annoyed Shota.
"It's a beautiful night," Hizashi had told them. "We're looking for something dumb to do."
"I have work," Shota grumbled.
"Liar, your shift today is much later." Nemuri hung her arm around his neck. "At least do one song before you go."
"I can't imagine Shota singing," you said to Hizashi.
"Wait till he gets drunk."
"I thought they limited alcohol?"
"For normal people, but you guys are with me, so...." Hizashi chuckled. "I don't drink, since it's bad for the lungs and it affects my quirk, but it's hilarious to watch them get drunk."
"I am not getting drunk," Shota scoffed.
~♬~
In just a few minutes, the four of you arrived and Shota got drunk, along with Nemuri.
The two had a small drinking contest and you were surprised Nemuri was able to get him to do it. She apparently had a bet with him and something was on the line, but they were both too drunk to remember.
"Shota's a passive aggressive but also a bit chaotic drunk," you pointed out. "And Nemuri is just really chaotic." You barely managed to stop her from turning this into a strip club.
Hizashi couldn't hold his laughs as Nemuri tried to get Shota up to sing a song, almost falling over. Another person came up to help them down, but got elbowed in the face by Shota.
You looked over to Hizashi to see him holding his phone up, recording everything.
"Blackmail," Hizashi said simply, seeing the amused look on your face. "You wanna go up and free them of their misery?"
"Sure." You followed Hizashi up to the stage and waited for him to tell the DJ the song.
"How about your song suggestions before mine?" Hizashi shot you a finger gun, grinning.
"[Favorite Song]," you said immediately. "And Partners in Crime by Set It Off. And 100 Bad Days by AJR."
"You got it."
The night was spent singing songs, taking breaks in between for other people to go as well. You were enjoying the time spent with Hizashi, especially watching Shota and Nemuri act crazy.
Shota had tired out by the counter and was snapping at anyone brave enough to approach him. Nemuri was talking to you, saying that Hizashi had a surprise for you. Hizashi was talking to the DJ, and you didn't not expect anything from someone such as him.
You watched as your boyfriend went up to the stage after a song finished. He didn't call you up with him, so you watched curiously. He made eye contact with you and winked. Grabbing the mic, he snapped his fingers for the song to start.
You knew this song and could tell this was an obvious comedic song joking about how ridiculous it was to obsess over celebrities. You couldn't help but laugh at his obnoxiousness.
When the song finished, Hizashi waved at you and beckoned for you to come up.
"Hey everyone!" Hizashi announced in his quirk voice. "Round of applause to my partner here!"
You hesitated, feeling a bit embarrassed by the sheer amount of cheering and clapping. Who knew this building could fit so many people?
"I'm not sure whether or not to be offended or not by the previous song," you joked in a low voice to Hizashi.
The song in the background started. Hizashi hadn't given you a mic, so you assumed just he was going to be singing.
"Offend? I would never," Hizashi murmured to you."Enjoy the song."
Hizashi seemed to be singing for you and not the crowd, causing you to be more immersed in his beautiful voice. He constantly made eye contact with you, holding out his hands towards you and moving his body to the rhythm.
You thought of a song to reply to his and you put yours next in the queue. When the song ended, Hizashi handed you the mic, seeing your excited expression.
"Presenting Mic, huh?" you joked, grabbing his hand before he went to the sidelines. He laughed, getting in position for a dance with you with the song.
You used your quirk slightly to make a small wave of vibration to get the audience in it.
You felt Hizashi about to use his quirk to sing as well, but before you could stop him, he made a confused expression that turned to slight annoyance. You noticed Shota by the counter, seemingly sober. His hair was floating up and you could see a red glisten in his eyes. You refrained from laughing and continued singing.
The song ended, and a new song was immediately playing next. You had suggested this one to play right after, and you were confident in yourself to sing it to Hizashi.
"105 is the number that comes to my head," you sang. Hizashi didn't recognize the song, you noticed. All the better. You smiled. "When I think of all the years I wanna be with you.
"Wake up every morning with you in my bed. That's precisely what I plan to do. And you know one of these days when I get my money right. Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life. Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush. But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough."
Hizashi was reading the lyrics from the screen, nodding his head to the beat. His eyes widened when he read the next few lines.
"I'll say will you marry me?" You gave him a large smile. "I swear that I will mean it. I'll say will you marry me."
"How many girls in the world can make me feel like this?" Hizashi sang, slightly out of tune but nailing it. "Baby I don't ever plan to find out. The more I look, the more I find the reasons why."
"You're the love of my life," you sang. "You know one of these days when I get my money right. Buy you everything and show you all the finer things in life. Will forever be enough, so there ain't no need to rush. But one day, I won't be able to ask you loud enough. I'll say will you marry me? I swear that I will mean it! I'll say will you marry me? And if I lost everything, in my heart it means nothing."
"'Cause I have you, girl I have you."
"So get right down on bended knee. Nothing else would ever be better, better. The day when I say, I'll say will you marry me? I swear that I will mean it. I'll say will you marry me!"
"I'll say will you marry me!"
"I swear that I will mean it. I'll say will you marry me!"
"Ooh whoa ooh oh." The audience caught on, cheering the two of you on. Even a few jealous women joined in. "Ooh whoa ooh oh! Ooh whoa ooh oh!"
"Would you marry me baby? 105 is the number that comes to my head, when I think of all the years I wanna be with you." You and Hizashi sang the last lines together. "Wake up every morning with you in my bed. That's precisely what I plan to do."
Hizashi leaned in to kiss you to end it. You pressed against him, adrenaline running through you.
"Y'know, I had a song right after Stand By You," Hizashi murmured to you. He nodded towards the DJ. "Did you tell him to put it on right and after?" You nodded. "Looks like we both had the same idea."
You, confused, listened closely as the next song came on.
"It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do!" Hizashi repeated the same line he said before your group came to the party. "Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you!
"Is it the look in your eyes, or is it this dancing juice? Who cares baby, I think I wanna marry you!"
You felt yourself get lost in his voice once again as he sang the song. "Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go! No one will know!
"Oh c'mon girl. Who cares if we're trashed? Got a pocket full of cash we can blow shots of Patron. And it's on girl!"
"Don't say no no no no no!" You and Hizashi started singing the lines together. "Just say yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah! And we'll go go go go go!"
"If you're ready, like I'm ready," Hizashi sang solo. "'Cause it's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do! Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you. Is it the look in your eyes or is it this dancing juice? Who cares baby, I think I wanna marry you!"
"Oh, I'll go get a ring, let the choir bell sing like ooh!"
"So whatcha wanna do?"
"Let's just run, girl! If we wake up and you want to break up, that's cool! No, I won't blame you. It was fun girl!"
"Don't say no no no no no!" The audience joined, clapping along. "Just say yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah! And we'll go go go go go! If you're ready, like I'm ready."
"'Cause it's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do!" You let Hizashi lead the dance, twirling you with one hand and the other on your hips. He didn't need the mic, just using his quirk.
"Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you! Is it the look in your eyes, or is it this dancing juice? Who cares baby, I think I wanna marry you! Just say I do!"
"Tell me right now baby! Tell me right now baby, baby! Just say I do! Tell me right now baby. Tell me right now baby, baby!"
"Oh! It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do," you sang. Hizashi picked you up bridal-style and spun around. "Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you! Is it the look in your eyes, or is it this dancing juice?"
"Who cares baby," Hizashi toned down his quirk, kissed you, and sang the last line, changing a word. "I know I wanna marry you."
He set you down and threw his wig off. You hadn't noticed before, but his contacts were gone as well. Then, now fully the Hizashi you knew and loved, he kneeled to the ground. Bringing out a small box displaying a ring, he said two words.
"Marry me?"
