A soft, golden afternoon light seeps between the curtains of your bedroom, painting the comforter where you and Izuku sit side-by-side. Some program flickers quietly on the screen, but neither of you is paying it any mind. With your parents away, the house has settled into a deep, intimate silence. Izuku carefully edges closer, his pulse a frantic drumbeat he's sure you must hear. He tentatively takes your hand in his, his touch warm and slightly damp. When his green eyes lift to meet yours, a rosy blush blooms across the bridge of his nose and over his freckles, and he gives your fingers a shy, gentle squeeze.
