AN: Sorry It took so long. I realized JUST how long it was taking when I was getting fustrated at the FanFictions that I follow. I figured that since I didn't like how it felt to wait that I should update. As a sorry I was sure to make it lengthy.
Chapter 42
Izuku woke up to an empty bed and was momentarily worried that he had messed up last night. That was till the smell of something sweet wafted into the room. Not that the room didn't already have an almost sticky sweet scent to it.
He took a moment to think about the previous night. His ego was skyrocketing. The images flashing before his eyes. Rin's drunk flushed expression when she came undone before they'd even started. Izuku licked his lips telling himself that he'd be willing to dine-in every night to hear those sounds.
The intentions that he'd had ended there, only Rin decided to return the favor. Midoriya suddenly became aware of his stiffening member and thought now was a good time to relocate.
Rin had made cinnamon roll pancakes with homemade sweet glaze sauce. She had a pep in her step. Listening to music from her phone as she cooked. She had slept naked after her sexipade with Izuku. That was of course after he had generously cleaned her up which was a new concept for Rin. She'd never had one of her partners bring her something to help wipe up and clean her lady bits. Not a towel or tissue or anything.
Izuku's clean-up tool of choice was actually his shirt. It didn't go unnoticed that he made sure that it was inside out to refrain from shoving All Might's face in her crotch. She had never experienced that and it was a change in pace. Though having a boyfriend in general was a change in pace for her as well.
As a thank you for the clean up she was sure to wash his clothing from last night. She threw on his All Might shirt after it dried. With it she wore a pair of plain black form fitting leggings. It was a bit chilly out and she enjoyed having the screen door open. She also knew that if she wore shorts it would be too cold.
She contemplated looking more sexy for Izuku for when he woke up but it wasn't really practical for while she was cooking. It was something she had tried before and it ended badly.
"Whatever you're cooking smells delicious." Rin turned to see Izuku walking out in his gym shorts and a plain white T-shirt.
The stupid happy school girl smile appeared on her face. She was feeling far more excited about seeing her partner the next morning then she ever had before.
"That makes me happy because you're going to eat it no matter what. It's sweet and I know how you like your sweets." She winked at the end of the statement causing Izuku to blush but still smirk nonetheless.
She couldn't help but laugh. "In all seriousness though," Turning off her phone and grabbing the tray with pancakes and glaze, "You always get cinnamon in and on your coffee and get the chocolate glazed chocolate donuts at Mister Donut. You definitely have a sweet tooth."
Izuku being the gentleman that he was, he took the tray from Rin and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "I always have a sweet tooth for you."
He enjoyed the faint pink shade on her cheeks, "At the couch? You said something about a parade?"
With that they started their morning Thanksgiving.
The Macy's Parade DVD that Rin bought had to have been about 10 years old and was clearly recorded from the TV station. ALL of the commercials were in the recording making it the classic two hours that she remembered as a kid.
Only this time it was far more enjoyable watching the nearly decade old American English ads with Izuku. The humorous soda and chip ads were his favorite while the gum and mens body spray were Rins.
Rin also enjoy watching Izuku's face as he absorbed the different acts that happened between the giant floats. The popular singers, actors and broadway musicals all performing something different. His mind nearly exploded when 'All Might In Action' by The New York Musical Production put on their act. Rin found it adorable to watch her boyfriend fanboy over it. Especially after the very adult performance he had just performed the night before.
"The pancakes were great. They go up there with my moms katsudon." Izuku felt like he had definitely smothered almost all of the glaze on his pancakes and hardly left any for Rin. Looking at her empty plate next to his he also assumed that perhaps it didn't matter. Taking it upon himself he went to grab the plates only to bump heads with her.
"Hey, I got this. You're my guest." She stacks the plates on the tray and starts to stand to make her exit.
"Nope." Izuku swiftly wraps one arm around her waist holding her in place as the other hand grabs the tray. He realized just last night the little bit of height difference they had. He didn't mind being an inch or two taller though. Looking down into Rin's eyes was enjoyable. Being able to see the fullness of her lips too.
Before he even realized it he was placing his lips to hers. His eyes automatically closing and pulling their bodies closer. Midoriya maintained the kiss as he navigated them over to the new table.
Rin loved how easy it was to get swooned away from Izuku. Before she knew it his fingertips were massaging her scalp as they made out at the kitchen table. She sat on the edge as Izuku stood between her legs, his scar'd hand making its way up the back of her shirt. This made Rin start to tug on his shirt getting angry at the clothing aspect between their kiss.
The sudden aggression heated Midoriya's intentions. His kisses started to become hungry as they trailed down her neck. He only pulled away when she pulled his shirt over his head. The chill from the patio hitting his back didn't bother him. Rins arms and legs wrapped around his torso warmed his core up enough. Not to mention the heat that was radiating south.
His turn to pull her shirt up over her head came to a halt when there was a knock on the door.
"That's your other Thanksgiving guests." Izuku found his head hanging in defeat. Rin giggled at his childish behavior.
"Come In!" She called to the door. Turning back to Izuku she planted one more kiss on his lips before sliding off the table, "We can continue later tonight."
Midoriya would never understand Rin's acceptance with just inviting others into the house. He'd have to have a serious conversation with her about it when they live together.
He paused putting on his shirt. Was he really jumping ahead thinking that far into what relationship they had? Was living with Rin something he wanted in the future? Izuku had to admit to himself that that kind of thinking was rash and sudden. Much like his fighting style. He found himself smirking. Being with Rin did give him as much joy as being a hero did.
"You going to put your shirt on? We don't need a picture to go with the sounds we heard last night." Izuku blushed but didn't respond to Bakugou's snippy remark. He simply slipped on his shirt and turned to see where Rin had gone.
She had stolen the tray of dirty dishes and was at the sink with Eijiro already starting their own conversation.
Turning back to Katsuki he noticed that he was looking over the changes in the apartment and saw that he even glanced to the bedroom door. Probably realizing that her bed was now in the bedroom.
"I'm sorry if we were….loud." He wasn't sure how to apologize for something of that nature. He definitely was not sorry last night when he was hearing it himself. It was a bit of a turn on and had been trying to make her MORE vocal.
Bakugou watched Deku for a moment. He almost wanted to vomit over the fact that Deku was spewing in a lovey dovey aura. There was a hint of guilt. Probably from the 'loud' comment. But for the most part the nerd had a bit of his ego showing.
Smirking, he slapped his shoulder, "Nothing I haven't heard before." He was FOREVER going to hint about the past. Leaning in a bit closer to his ear, "She got your shoulder good."
Midoriya stepped back and looked down at his right shoulder blade. Peeking out of the neck collar was a purple bruise.
Now with full laughter Katsuki had to hold himself up with the tables ledge.
"Don't worry. It won't show in uniform." He could barely get the words out.
Rin was pulling everything out from the fridge and prepping dinner with the help of Kirishima when she heard the laugh not far behind her back. She knew instantly that it wasn't Izuku but she also knew that he had to have been the one to do it. Izuku had a way with making people smile, laugh and feel motivated or determined.
"You really like him don't you?" A bit taken aback by the question Rin had to turn to look. As if making eye contact would help her absorb the question better.
"I suppose I do." She was feeling giddy thinking about it, "I like how we can be ourselves with each other." Taking a moment to focus on her food prep, "It's nice to be able to be with someone who encourages you in all the best ways. Recently it feels like I can't live without him. Not because I rely on him but because I truly enjoy his company. I'd probably be really upset if he broke up with me. But I don't NEED him. I love that even though we're together he does have other priorities above me. I don't think I could take the pressure of being the top one." Rin realized that she was rambling. Maybe Izuku was rubbing off on her. She should lighten the mood.
"Oh Man Red! But the sex. I haven't had foreplay like THAT before." She turns to watch the embarrassed expression on Kirishima's face. Only the tables were turned when she saw Izuku and Bakugou standing with him along with Tokoyami, who must have just arrived.
Dark Shadow emerges from behind Tokoyami laughing, "Seems Bakugou didn't do the rumoured job correctly."
To which made Bakugou's face scrunched in both embarrassment and anger. "And what rumours are those?"
Before anything could go any further Midoriya was sure to step in and make peace, "You guys, We're here to celebrate all the things that we're thankful for and that doesn't involve arguing with one another."
"You researched the American Holiday?" Rin awed over.
"First off, No surprise that the nerd researched it. Deku's just ending the discussion on a high note because it boosts his ego." Katsuki turned to Tokoyami, "Keep your dark thoughts to yourself." Then he turned to Izuku, "Don't go thinkin' that makes you better than me. And lastly," Turning back to Rin, "Are we waiting on any other guests for this holiday event of yours?"
"Not till later in the day. Mr. Yagi, Mina, and Amy all work and are unable to come till then. Which will be fine. I have games for us to play as well as a movie while a slave away in the kitchen."
They all took a moment to stare. Red was the one to break the ice, "You're really mom-ing it up in the kitchen." The words were said with a smile and Rin didn't take any offence to it.
Tossing the dish towel at Kirishima, "Hey! You all go sit at the table while I put this in the oven."
The guests laughed and made way to the table to wait.
Continuing into the next two and a half hours they played various card games and board games. Most of which were new to the heroes. Rin watched as Izuku's competitive side came out when it came to playing head on with Bakugou.
And Bakugou?
Although he complained and it was like pulling teeth to get him to play the, 'Childish Games' he ended up being the most competitive person out of the group. Tokoyami being the least though Dark Shadow showed a different side in the background. Keeping his mouth shut as per request of his host.
"Alright! I win! Two out of three." Kirishima exclaimed turning to Bakugou who was gritting his teeth.
"I'd have won if these love birds weren't trying to feel each other up every other turn."
Midoriya's face reddened because he knew it was true.
In all truth he was trying to find every moment that he could, to put his hands on Rin. There was a spine tingling thrill in trying to keep a straight face as his hand made its way further up her thigh.
He'd watch out of his peripheral to see if her face would react. When he realized her stubbornness it became a game of sorts. Where his fingers would start to massage into her toned thighs.
There was a moment when the timer went off in the kitchen signaling for her to relocate and their interactions to end. Rin had returned to the table with a bowl of chips and a dish with a cheesy dip in it. He had expected the flirty touching to end but was instead delivered in return.
He watched the lips of the brunette twist into a smirk as she played her turn in Monopoly while simultaneously raking her fingertips up his gym shock of the skin to skin contact made his member instantly stiffen. Remembering the heat from the night previous. A groan leaving his lips.
Everyone turned to him in that moment. And that was probably the moment that Bakugou realized the touching happening between the two.
"Don't blame losing on us." Rin called over her shoulder from the kitchen area. Katsuki grunted in response. Noticed that she didn't deny the accusation.
There was a knock at the door to which Rin again just invited whoever was at the door inside.
"My young heroes! I am happy to see you all together." All Might walked through the door and traveling behind him was Amy.
Bakugou wasn't familiar with the woman. He's had to see her in person once or twice to go over his report orally. The correct way. Not the sexual innuendos he spat out at Rin when he had to do an oral report for her. He remembered that Amy wasn't huge on communicating. Though he could hear the woman speaking enthusiastically with Rin in the kitchen area. All in English. The only reason he even knew her name was because she was the only person who did report translations before Rin came into the business.
"Katsuki My Boy. I heard that you were able to get your recommendations and U.A. records into the University on time." All Might patted Bakugou on the back making the blondes face reddened from embarrassment.
But Bakugou wasn't going to admit to enjoying the praise. So he hid it his usual way.
"I'm not some stupid. I knew what I needed to do and I'm going to do what I need to do to make it to the top." He was expressive and loud but he made sure to keep some of the vulgar words out.
His Not-Therapist had suggested to keep that language to more important matters.
"So It wasn't just a bunch of talk? You're really going to leave?" Rin appeared at the table with a large tray of shredded meat sitting on it. Following behind her Amy had a dish of carrots in one hand and a dish of golden sweet potatoes in the other.
"Yea. Gotta do what I gotta do to raise my ranking."
Rin and Amy put the food on the table indicating that the feast was about to start. Everyone started to push themselves in closer to the table. Amy left to retrieve more of the side dishes and plates.
"Isn't being in the top 100 in itself a huge achievement? I don't know the logistics here." Rin wasn't speaking to anyone in particular.
Tokoyami was the one to answer, "It's honestly an achievement to be in the top 250. It's based off of all of Japan. With the increase of heroes the ratio of the top in of itself has grown. With every city and prefecture having there own subdivision of an agency to protect that area. There is also the consideration of agencies that specialize out of Japan. You have the Ocean Patrols, Clean Up Assistance, the Medical Field and anyone and everyone who has passed the Hero Exam who isn't part of an agency."
"Like, feel lance heroes?" Rin took her seat at the head of the table with Bakugou on one side and Izuku on the other.
This time Midoriya spoke up, "You don't actually have to be part of an agency to be a hero. The only thing the government looks at is if you're licensed."
"Enough of this extras crap. We all know that those without an agency are a bunch of nobody extras who'll never make it to the top." The growl Bakugou snapped out was a bit unexpected.
Rin chose to ignore it and after looking around the table everything seemed in place.
"You're right. Enough talk. Let's eat."
All Might was impressed with the Thanksgiving meal the young translator managed to put together. He had found out that the 'turkey' pieces were chicken though and that she had to purchase six of them to be able to feed the table. Rin had explained that that was why she was up and down throughout the day cooking and how traditionally you'd simply just put a huge turkey in the oven and let it cook all day.
Being in Japan she had to make do with what was available around her.
It wasn't Toshinori's first Thanksgiving Feast but it was the first Japanese rendition of one he had been to.
*Bing* Next to him he heard young Midoriya's phone go off. To which the boy pulled out to look at. His face lit up and All Might knew the news he had received.
"Mos Burger wants me to sponsor them!" Izuku announced to the table.
"That's great!" Rin.
"What? That's better than the Cinnamon Star Crunch Cereal that wanted me." Eijiro.
"I haven't been asked to sponsor any brands but Dark Shadow has been. He is the face of an online alternative dating website." Tokoyami.
Almost automatically they turned to Katsuki Bakugou. All Might had already known that he had turned down plenty of offers due to 'making it on his own' without help from a sponsorship.
The spikey blonde snarled and completely ignored them.
"This is perfect. What a wonderful opportunity Izuku. Gifted to you on this Thanksgiving holiday!" He sat up from his chair and bowed, "For Thanksgiving I am thankful for being able to mentor and watch you young heroes grow abundantly."
*POOF* He went into his, now rare, muscular form. "And with this new opportunity you will be able to give me ALL THE CHEESE BURGER! Mos Burger for every Father/Son outing."
He was loud and his form had knocked over the chair. But All Might was genuinely excited for the young man and being a bit extra was necessary.
"Father/Son outing? Was our last meeting an interruption?" Tokoyami looked genuinely upset.
Izuku picked up the fallen chair as All Might deflated. His cheeks pink. He still felt like it was a new topic to think of All Might as a father figure. Though he knew others from his high school class were aware of it, it was still something that was never really talked about out loud.
"N-not at all Fumikage! Having our conversation about the villians was an important one. There is nothing wrong with grouping gatherings together. That was probably the day Mos Burger picked up that we eat there frequently with our hero shots we posted." Midoriya stopped abruptly trying not to ramble which he felt was about to come.
"Are you guys talking about the Circus Case?", Red Riot was excited to hear about it. So excited in fact the he was talking through his chicken leg.
"As a matter of fact Yes! It was you who caught the Juggler. In fact, you all have been a part of this case in some way or another." Toshinori looked around the feasting table of young heroes. His earlier statement stands. He was grateful for having been about to guide them.
Rin smacked the table, "I remember that guy! He almost blew me up."
"What?!" Both Kirishima and Midoriya turned their heads.
"Yeah, I was being driven from the airport. I'd probably be dead now if it wasn't for Ground Zero." Rin side glanced at Bakugou.
"I was just doing my job." He didn't look up.
"I know and I'm thankful for that. Maybe you should think about the 'saving lives' aspect more than the 'being at the top' part of your job."
And that's when a sharp loud explosive sound came from the kitchen.
