[Another embarrassed sound escapes him.] I...wouldn't want to say that in public either. [At least he and Shouto are on the same page about this. Small mercies.
He grows quiet then, gently stroking Shouto's cheek for a moment before finally leaning in for a tentative kiss.]
[Kissing isn't new for either of them at this point, but everything that comes after it.. definitely is. The nerves kick in, making Izuku tense up a little despite his best efforts.
It's surprising, how different it is from that other time, when things had flowed so naturally from one thing to the other. Then again, Izuku supposes knowing what they're planning to do would be more nerve-inducing, in hindsight.]
[Kissing is a familiar activity. But there's a lot more to this whole thing they're doing than just that. It's so easy to notice the way Izuku tenses up.
Not that Shouto can really blame him. Shouto's been anticipating this for a long, long time. He'll gently pull away from the kiss, resting their foreheads together.]
[There's a warm smile, even when the rest of him feels so uncomfortably cold. With that in the air, it feels a lot less awkward to do the rest of this.
He presses close, rubbing their crotches together.]

[Their door is, at least, closed. Deku won't be breaking up their time together this round.]

You worried?
no subject
I haven't done this before. [Izuku murmurs as he rubs their noses together fondly.] But I trust you.
[Just like he's trusted Shouto with every part of himself he's given over before this.]
no subject
You think I have?
I trust you too. That's why I'm okay doing this.
no subject
[The trust is what matters in the end, Izuku thinks, as he tilts his head up for another kiss.
This time, he doesn't pull away after a little bit, cupping Shouto's cheek in one hand as he lingers.]
no subject
Hey... I love you.
no subject
I love you, too, Shouto.
[But he already knew that.]
