shinso didn't plan on having a kid, but now there's a tiny version of him running around the house and yelling about the moon.
(fic/drabble under the cut!)
there's a crash from the living room, followed by the unmistakable sound of bare feet slapping frantically against hardwood. you don't even look up from your phone.
"he's running," you call.
shinso sighs from the kitchen. "is it a happy run or a 'he's about to break something' run?"
you pause, listening. a door slams. a tiny voice wails, "why did they turn off the moon?!"
"...meltdown," you say casually. "moon's out. emotionally spiraling."
shinso leans against the doorframe with a tired sort of grace, stirring a mug of hot chocolate like this is completely normal. which, unfortunately, it is.
"i told you not to say the moon was a night light," he says.
you shrug. "he was scared of the dark. i panicked. i gave it personality."
"well," shinso mutters, setting the mug down with a small clink, "now it's personal."
you both wander toward the noise—your son has collapsed dramatically on the floor by the window, clutching his stuffed cat, face pressed to the glass.
"they turned it off," he sniffles without turning around. "the moon's gone. my night light's broken forever."
shinso sits down beside him cross-legged, like he's done this a thousand times. because he has. you watch as your husband gently tilts his head to try and meet his son's eyes.
"it's just cloudy, kid," shinso says quietly. "the moon's still there. can't always see it, but it doesn't go away."
your son frowns. "are you sure?"
"yeah," shinso says, voice lower now. "same way i can't always see you when i'm at work, but i still know you're being a tiny menace at home."
"i'm not a menace," he protests immediately.
shinso raises an eyebrow. "you bit your mom over cookies."
your son pauses.
"...she deserved it."
"absolutely not," you say from the hallway, and both of them flinch in sync.
there's a beat of silence before your son lets out a very long, dramatic sigh. "okay," he whispers, still watching the sky. "but tell the moon to stop hiding. i don't like when it goes away."
shinso leans back on his hands, glancing toward you. his expression softens a little—less tired, more tired and in love.
"i get it," he murmurs. "i don't like when things go away, either."
you tilt your head. he doesn't look at you, but he doesn't need to. that's just how he is—quiet affection, full volume in everything except words.
later, when your son's asleep, curled between the two of you with his limbs spread out like he fought ghosts in his dreams, shinso kisses your shoulder and says:
"you made him weird."
you smile. "you made him soft."
shinso brushes a hand through your son's hair, voice barely audible.
"yeah," he says. "we did good."
you wrote "december, again" about heartbreak. you didn't expect to meet someone who'd sing every word back like he'd lived it too.
the green room was quiet—dim and humming with low light, the scent of hot tea and stage dust clinging to the corners. you sat cross-legged on the worn velvet couch, cradling a chipped mug between your palms, listening to the soft static of the soundcheck being patched through the in-ear monitors coiled beside you.
your guitar sat in its stand nearby, already tuned, the strap worn from years of shows and nerves. you had done this so many times before—but tonight felt different.
tokyo was the biggest venue on the tour so far. a full room. a sold-out show. an unfamiliar city and a familiar ache in your chest. you'd played coffee shops, tiny festival tents, even the occasional college auditorium—but this was your first international stage, and the butterflies were relentless.
you glanced at your phone, already on do not disturb, but still lit up with a few unread messages. one was from your tour manager. one from your sister. and one, tucked between them, was a twitter notification.
@lightningmcme
im the guy in the front row screaming every word. respectfully
you smiled without meaning to. your thumb hovered over the screen for a second longer than necessary, rereading the tweet. it was stupidly charming—just like all his other tweets.
you remembered him. the blonde with the ridiculous username. he'd been tweeting about your music for years. always saying something half-sincere and half-stupid, like your lyrics had personally destroyed him in the grocery store or that he'd cry if you ever released a deluxe version.
and he always meant it. every word.
you weren't supposed to follow fans back—not often, anyway. but his account had popped up more times than you could count. sweet. supportive. never creepy. just... soft.
so when you followed him and sent a quick thank you, you hadn't expected the all-caps panic or the flustered spiral of gratitude. you definitely hadn't expected to still be messaging him days later. he was funny. kind. endearingly honest. it was easy.
and now he was here. somewhere in that crowd. front row, he'd said. you hadn't looked yet. didn't dare. not until the lights hit you.
you pressed your hand to your chest, just for a second, trying to calm the stupid flutter that rose there.
"two minutes," someone called from the hallway.
you stood slowly, adjusting your mic pack, and reached for your guitar. as you walked toward the wings, the sounds of the crowd drifted in—laughter, chatter, low excitement building into something tangible. the air buzzed.
the lights backstage flickered as the crew called final cues. you did one last breath check, settled your fingers on the strings, and exhaled.
showtime.
the stage lights washed over you in a warm gold as you stepped out, your guitar slung across your shoulder. a hush fell over the audience, the kind that always made your heart beat a little harder.
"hi," you said into the mic, breath catching on the tail end of a smile. "i'm... really honored to be here tonight. i've been writing songs in my bedroom since i was sixteen, and somehow you all made it feel like something real."
soft cheers rippled through the audience. somewhere near the front, someone whooped.
you scanned the barricade briefly, and there he was—blond hair tousled, jacket sleeves rolled up to his elbows, absolutely beaming. he looked like he hadn't blinked since you walked onstage. mouth already forming the lyrics before you even began.
denki.
you felt a grin pull at your lips.
"this first song..." you said, adjusting the strap on your shoulder. "it's called 'december, again'. it's about holding onto something long after it's let go of you.
the opening chord rang clear. you let yourself fall into it.
i bought your favorite drink out of habit left it in the fridge 'til it went bad wore your sweater out in public just to see if anyone would ask
you sang like you were remembering every ache in real time. the lights were low and soft, like candlelight, and you could hear the audience singing with you.
your name still fits wrong in my mouth but it's the only thing i don't spit out
the lights dimmed slightly, drawing the audience closer. you caught sight of denki mouthing the words, his hands clasped against the barricade like he didn't trust himself not to float away.
it's december, again and i swore i'd be fine but the lights look like your headlights and the cold feels like that night when you left without saying goodbye and i still stand by the door like i'm waiting for you to come back in it's december, again and i'm missing you like it just happened
the audience went silent as you strummed your guitar. it was a silence that proved they were listening. really listening.
friends ask how i'm doing i lie like it's my second language there's still boxes in my closet of the pieces i can't manage
a girl in the third row wiped her eyes. you caught her movement out of the corner of your eye and softened your voice.
i sleep better with the TV on but you still show up when the volume's gone
it's december again and i swore i'd be fine but the lights look like your headlights and the cold feels like that night when you left without saying goodbye and i still stand by the door like i'm waiting for you to come back in it's december, again and i'm missing you like it just happened do you think of me at all? when it starts to snow when someone plays our song too slow i burned all the letters but not the words i still remember what i never heard
you opened your eyes again and let them rest on him. denki. he hadn't moved. his expression was soft, reverent, like he'd never seen anything more important than you at that moment.
it's december, again and the silence is loud you're still gone but i'm not proud of the way i keep breaking like it's some kind of vow and i still stand by the door like i don't know how this ends it's december, again and i'm missing you like it just happened
the last chord faded into a hush.
a beat of silence.
then the applause began—gentle, reverent. a swell of warmth.
you scanned the crowd.
denki was still at the barricade.
still glowing.
not in a flashy, spotlight kind of way—but in the way someone looks when they've found something they didn't know they needed.
you played the rest of your set like you were singing just for him.
⋆˙⟡
when you stepped offstage, your hands were still buzzing. you passed your guitar to one of the techs, accepted a bottle of water with shaking fingers, and headed straight for the security staff near the wing.
"hey," you said. "can i ask a favor?"
one of them looked up. "depends. how weird is it?" you smiled. "sweet blond boy. front row. looks like he sings along to everything even when he's about to cry. think you can bring him back here?"
the guy laughed. "yeah, i know exactly who you mean."
⋆˙⟡
denki didn't know how to move.
people were leaving. voices echoing. but he just stood there, staring at the empty stage like it still had something to give him.
he was pretty sure he hadn't blinked since you looked at him. actually looked at him. he had replayed it ten times in his head already. the exact second your gaze found his and you smiled.
his knees were weak.
and then a security guard was walking toward him.
"hey," the guy said. "you're the blond one, right? artist wants to see you backstage."
denki had exactly three brain cells functioning, and all of them screamed.
he followed the guard without speaking. his legs felt fake. his mouth was dry. this had to be a dream. it had to be.
backstage smelled like lights and sweat and something warm—something safe.
he tried not to trip over a cable as the door opened.
⋆˙⟡
you were curled up in a hoodie over your stage outfit, sat in a chair, when the door opened.
there he was.
golden and breathless and so clearly overwhelmed you almost stood up just to steady him.
"hi," you said, heart hammering. "denki, right?"
he nodded fast. too fast. "hi—yeah. yes. oh my god."
you laughed. "it's okay. you made it."
he blinked. "did i black out?"
"maybe a little."
you motioned for him to sit. he did. slowly. like it might be a trap.
"i just wanted to thank you," you said. "like i said, i've seen your tweets. your support. it's... it's meant more than you know."
denki looked like he might combust.
"i'm the one who's grateful," he said. "you wrote the soundtrack to my favorite breakdowns."
you grinned. "best compliment i've ever received."
there was a pause. something soft.
he glanced around, cheeks flushed. "this is... insane. you're, like, the reason i made it through last winter. that song? 'december, again'? i think i listened to it every day for two months. not even because i was heartbroken, i just—i don't know. it made me feel like i wasn't broken for feeling too much."
you blinked. slowly. carefully.
then denki tilted his head and said, "can i ask you something kind of personal?"
"sure," you said. "shoot."
"what got you into music?"
you smiled, soft and a little faraway. "i guess... i always felt a little too much. too loud in my head. writing was the only way i could let it out without exploding. and then one day, i put it to chords, and it stuck. it felt right. like i was finally telling the truth."
denki was quiet for a moment, like he didn't want to break the silence. then he said, "well, i'm really glad you did."
you looked at him, his wide eyes and messy hair and nervous energy. and then, without really thinking about it, you asked, "are you doing anything right now?"
he blinked. "me?"
you laughed. "yeah, you."
denki shook his head. "no, i... i mean, i was probably just gonna cry in a ramen shop alone about this whole night, so—"
"perfect," you cut in. "come cry in a ramen shop with me instead."
he stared. "wait. you're serious?"
"dead serious," you said. "you comin'?"
he nodded vigorously. "yes, of course."
you stood, grabbing your jacket. "cool. i know a good noodle spot. let's go, sweet blond boy from barricade."
and denki followed you out into the cold tokyo night, warm from something that had nothing to do with the stage lights.
and everything to do with you.
⇨ in which, kirishima is madly in love with his girlfriend, even if she’s constantly reinventing herself with questionable methods
the five times he almost confessed (and the one time he did)
when you were laughing so hard you couldn't breathe
the common room was loud in that cozy, familiar way—someone had turned on a movie, kaminari was yelling about the plot inconsistencies, and a half-empty popcorn bowl had already made two laps around the room. shoto wasn't really paying attention to the screen. he was sitting off to the side, legs folded neatly under him, arms resting on the back of the couch, his eyes on you.
you were laughing.
not the polite kind you gave during class or the half-hearted chuckle that came after a bad pun—no, this was the full-body, head-thrown-back, tear-filled kind of laughter that made everyone around you start grinning too, even if they didn't know the joke.
and it was over something dumb. kaminari had tripped over mina's fuzzy slipper and face-planted into kirishima's protein shake. chaos followed. you were absolutely losing it.
shoto watched as you grabbed your stomach and gasped, "oh my god—that was the dumbest thing i've ever seen—" and wiped at your eyes like it hurt.
he felt something twist inside his chest. something warm and terrifying.
he should tell you. he should lean forward, tap your shoulder, and just say it—i like you. i think i like you more than i'm supposed to.
but then you turned to him, smile still wide, and said, "what? why are you looking at me like that?"
and he panicked.
shoto shook his head, lips twitching just slightly. "nothing. you look... happy."
you beamed at him.
and the moment passed.
2. when you fell asleep on his shoulder
it was movie night again. the common room was quieter this time. only you, him, and iida, who had already fallen asleep thirty minutes in, glasses askew and arms crossed like a disappointed father.
you had slowly started leaning on him as the night wore on, drifting closer each time you yawned. he didn't move. not when your head tilted, not when your hair brushed his collarbone, not even when your hand settled lightly over his.
eventually, you dozed off completely. he could feel the rise and fall of your breathing, soft and steady, against his side.
shoto stared straight ahead at the flickering screen, but his heart was slamming against his ribs like it was trying to break out.
"i love you," he whispered, so quiet he wasn't sure if he actually said it or just imagined the shape of the words in his mouth.
you shifted slightly, brow furrowed, murmuring something incoherent.
he froze. held his breath.
but you didn't wake up.
so he stayed still. and didn't say it again.
3. when you got your heart broken
it was raining. of course it was raining.
you showed up at his door soaked and shaking with the kind of smile that didn't reach your eyes. he opened it without a word and stepped aside to let you in. you toed off your shoes, jacket dripping on the mat, and mumbled, "sorry. i didn't know where else to go."
he handed you a towel. "you always know where to go."
you sat down on his bed, towel wrapped tightly around your shoulders, hair clinging to your face. he made tea. it was silent, but not the uncomfortable kind. it was the kind that let you breathe.
"he broke up with me," you said, finally. "said i was... 'too much.' whatever that means."
shoto sat beside you, mug in hand. "it means they're an idiot."
you laughed, but it sounded hollow.
he wanted to say more. he wanted to tell you that you were exactly enough. that your laugh made the world quieter in his head. that your presence was the one thing that didn't overwhelm him.
but instead, he said, "you deserve someone better."
you leaned your head against his shoulder.
and he didn't move.
4. when he thought you might be slipping away
training had been brutal. everyone was sore, tired, and half-dead by the time aizawa dismissed them. but you looked worse than tired. you looked distant.
you hadn't texted him back in two days. you missed lunch. you didn't sit with him during the bus ride back. and he noticed—every bit of silence, every missed message, every glance that used to last longer.
so he waited outside the locker room, arms crossed, heart pacing faster than his footsteps ever could.
"hey," you said, blinking at him in surprise. you looked like you wanted to smile, but didn't quite manage it. "you okay?"
"i miss you," he said, too blunt, too honest.
your eyes widened a little. you laughed it off, but there was a crack in it. "i'm right here, shoto."
he looked at you. really looked. your hoodie sleeves pulled over your hands. your eyes tired. your mouth tugging into something that wasn't quite a smile.
"yeah," he said. "you are."
but he didn't believe it. you were standing in front of him, but you felt like you were disappearing by the second.
he thought about reaching for your hand. about saying the words out loud, finally. but instead, he shoved his hands into his pockets and watched you walk away.
and he didn't say what he meant.
5. when you almost died
the explosions echoed down the street like thunder.
shoto didn't wait. he was already moving, already tearing toward the smoke, already deaf to the ringing in his ears and the shouts behind him. his vision blurred. his heartbeat drowned everything else out.
they said you were last seen inside the collapsed building.
he didn't think. he didn't breathe. he just ran.
the debris was everywhere. the smell of ash, blood, and panic choked the air. he called your name once. twice. again.
and then he saw your hand.
half-buried. covered in dust and cuts. but moving.
he dropped to his knees and started digging, calling your name again, voice shaking. his fire flared too hot, too close, and he forced himself to calm it—you couldn't get burned. not by him.
when he finally got to you, you were barely conscious, lips split, blood trickling down your temple.
"stay with me," he said, voice low and sharp with panic. "hey. look at me. you're okay. i've got you."
you mumbled his name. tried to smile.
he gathered you into his arms and held you like something sacred. he didn't let go until the medics forced him to.
that night he sat beside your hospital bed, fingers wrapped around yours, head bowed.
"i have to tell you," he whispered. "i have to. i almost didn't get to."
but your monitor beeped steadily, your face was still pale, and he couldn't bring himself to add anything more.
not yet.
so he waited.
+1. when you didn't let him walk away
it was late.
the dorms were quiet, shadows stretching across the hallway as he leaned against the railing outside. cold wind brushed against his cheek, but he didn't mind. he stood there, staring at nothing, waiting for the weight in his chest to go away. it didn't.
you found him like that, barefoot in socks, hoodie too big, voice small as you whispered, "you okay?"
he turned to look at you.
the wind caught your hair. the moonlight made your eyes look softer than usual. you looked tired, but more than that, you looked worried. for him.
he looked at you like he always did—with something like awe, like fear, like you were the sun and he wasn't sure if he deserved the warmth.
"i keep trying to tell you something," he said.
you stepped closer. close enough that your shoulder brushed his.
"then just say it," you whispered.
he hesitated. how many times had he rehearsed it? how many times had the words caught in his throat, choked back by fear or timing or circumstance?
you didn't move.
"shoto," you said softly, eyes never leaving his, "if you don't say it now, i think i might."
his breath hitched, and for the first time, he didn't flinch.
"i love you," he said.
it came out quieter than he meant it to. barely a whisper. but it felt louder than any explosion.
you smiled.
"finally."
then, you leaned in and kissed him, slow and sure, like you'd been waiting forever. and maybe you had.
he kissed you back like he was making up for all the times he didn't say it.
and finally, finally, he didn't have to wait anymore.
⇨ you beat him in a match. he found your number. unfortunately for you, he’s chatty.
