have this third-year kiribaku drabble my brain spawned at two in the morning! i didn't think it was long enough for ao3 but felt the need to write about bkg getting cute and cuddly when drunk
,
eijirou and katsuki have been dating for somewhere around three months. it's great. they're great. only, there's one little thing: no one knows.
they hadn't meant to keep it a secret, but eijirou saw how uncomfortable his boyfriend got when their friends teased him about eijirou being his favourite, or how tense he'd get when people made a big deal about him turning "soft". so they kept the affection to behind closed doors. and, yeah, maybe sometimes eijirou's a little bummed he can't show his boyfriend to the world, but the special smiles he gets from the blonde when they're alone make him happy enough that he doesn't care who sees or doesn't. katsuki's a private person by nature, anyway.
(except, apparently, when drunk.)
"eijiiii," katsuki whines, slinging his arms around the red-head's neck. "eiji."
katsuki's cheeks are flushed a lovely shade of red, eyes bright and hair mussed messily as he buries his nose in the junction between eijirou's shoulder and neck. it's cute - adorable, if he's being honest. eijirou rarely gets to see his boyfriend like this, so openly affectionate and cuddly. it makes his heart skip, and a fond smile tugs at his lips.
but there's one problem.
they're not in one of their bedrooms this time, or in the common kitchen in the early hours of the morning when no one else is awake. the problem is that they're not alone. it's eight at night, and they've just come back from dinner at katsuki's house, and they are surrounded by their gaping, silent classmates. and katsuki? katsuki is piss-drunk.
he can't even remember how it started. katsuki's mother had offered them wine at dinner, cracking a joke about how they were now of legal age and could finally "live a little". katsuki had refused, obviously, too virtuous to engage in drinking alcohol. well, until his mother had gotten a mischievous edge to her smile as she muttered under her breath about him being afraid, and suddenly his virtues went out the window. he'd downed the glass in one, and then poured himself another and downed that too, with an expression torn between disgust and determination.
and then... and then. he doesn't even know. now they're here, and eijirou is suffering.
"ei," katsuki mumbles into his collarbone as eijirou half-carries him into the common room. uraraka, deku, iida and todoroki are sitting at the couches, and watch with wide eyes at the interaction.
"f-first name?" uraraka mutters to herself quietly. "i didn't know bakugou even used last names..."
todoroki blinks at the two of them. "he's being extraordinarily touchy." he muses.
as if to prove his point, katsuki nuzzles further into eijirou's chest, burying his face in the red-head's jacket.
kaminari, sero and ashido shuffle in from the shared kitchen, chattering happily.
"hey, you guys are ba-"
they freeze. kaminari cuts himself off at the sight, eyes growing wide.
"where's my phone." he breathes, hands digging into his pockets searchingly without moving his eyes off the pair.
"katsuki." eijirou mutters quietly. "there are people here."
katsuki looks up, resting his cheek on his boyfriend's chest and giving him a dopey grin.
"love you." he says happily, eyes crinkling.
eijirou, despite his valiant efforts, melts a little bit at the sight. fighting to keep the blush off his own face, he clears his throat and looks away quickly.
and- ah, yes, literally everyone heard. their jaws are dropped now, staring at the two of them like they've just committed a murder. even todoroki's mouth is hanging open, expression eerily blank.
"let's go inside, katsuki." he mumbles, trying to drag the swaying blonde towards their dorm rooms. the blonde, however, stubbornly roots himself to the spot.
"say it back." he demands, narrowing his eyes and locking his arms around eijirou's bicep.
"w-what?"
"say it back."
eijirou's cheeks feel like they're on fire.
"dude," he laughs awkwardly. "how about we have this talk inside?"
at this, katsuki's scowl melts into a downcast pout, and he stares at eijirou with such forlorn eyes that ashido and uraraka unconsciously coo from their different spots in the room.
"y'don't wanna say it." he says distressedly, grip loosening, and fuck, is he tearing up?
"no!" eijirou rushes quickly. "o-of course i do! kats, c'mon."
katsuki blinks at him expectantly, eyes still shimmering slightly with unshed tears, and eijirou sighs, feeling his heart clench at the sight.
"i love you, babe, you know that." he raises a hand to brush away the wetness at katsuki's eyes, and the blonde's sad frown dissolves, radiant smile returning again and eyes turning to crescents. eijirou absently considers getting him drunk more often, just to see him smile like this. he's so pretty, always pretty, but he looks downright angelic when beaming at eijirou like this, it should be illegal.
"mwah." katsuki says happily, pressing a loud and dramatic kiss to eijirou's nose, and promptly collapses into his chest, loose arms wrapping around his neck.
eijirou blinks, back of his neck burning and heart still thumping at the utterly adorable display.
"oh my god." ashido says. "oh my god, kiri, since when?"
"um." he says stiltedly, trying to rearrange his softly murmuring and very much drunk boyfriend in his arms.
"that was so cute." uraraka breathes, eyes shiny. "why was that cute? am i going insane, or did i just find bakugou cute?"
todoroki pats her arm slowly, gaze vacant.
"me too." he says hollowly. "something is wrong with us."
eijirou laughs awkwardly, ignoring ashido and kaminari, who have started to chant, "when, when, when, when, when, when," at him, closing in threateningly.
"i should go." he says uselessly, edging away from them.
"i think my heart just skipped a beat." sero mutters to uraraka and todoroki, looking vaguely terrified at the prospect. "you guys aren't alone."
deku has been concerningly silent throughout the ordeal, and is filming the entire thing, tears streaming down his face freely.
hagakure, who has seemingly materialised out of nowhere, is jumping up and down energetically.
"the smile!" she says hysterically. "i didn't know he could do that! bakugou is so pretty when he smiles!"
amongst all the chaos, eijirou bundles his boneless boyfriend into his arms and slips out of the common room, into katsuki's dorm.
well, that was certainly one way to do it.
