Blasty Mcsplode: Is Half 'n' half courting you?
------
It's the next day and the message remains unanswered. Kirishima simply can't bring himself to decide, would there be risks if he flippantly tells Bakugo? Will it affect Todoroki? Midoriya? Or Himself?
Kirishima sighs; he needs to think this through.
"What's going on Ei? You look down…"
"Mother… It's been on my mind, but what if the courting doesn't prevail?"
And that brought their attention towards him, "And why is that Eijiro? Do you not have faith in our decision?" His father softly snapped, not appreciating his son's uncertainty towards their wise choice.
"N-no, That's not it… It's more the fact that we might not be compatible for each other," Kirishima hastily corrects, not keen on losing his father's trust again after the previous incident.
"Oh Ei, honey.. It's still a few days since the courting started, I bet you two will warm up to each other soon,"
Kirishima doubts that will happen when both of them are focused on pursuing other mates, at least Todoroki is. He's not sure if he should bring up his pressing feelings for a certain alpha to his parents, he's afraid that it might be another pile to his already cumulating responsibility.
"F-father, if you don't mind me asking, isn't my practice directed to make me more in touch with my omega..? Then wouldn't that make it my choice to choose an alpha?"
"Very good reflection Eijiro, that is indeed true, but do you recall the story your mother used to read to you?" His mother smiled at his father, visibly swooning over the memory. "Red string of fate? It's about soulmates right?"
His father nods "Correct, me and your mother believed that the more in touch you are with your instincts, the higher the chance you will meet your destined alpha, do you understand where I'm coming from Eijiro?"
A synapse clicked in Kirishima's head "Y-yeah, I do understand." the clarity of Yaomomo's words suddenly hit him – So that's what she meant…
"Some may call it far-fetched; or delusional in some aspects, but we believe that a close bond to your instincts plays a huge part in guiding us to our one true mate, our dynamics are a sacred thing.. We shouldn't be mating various people only to find each other incompatible and dumping them to be claimed by another,"
"Like your father and me, we'd like you to find a one true mate Ei. You just have to believe and follow what your instincts tells you, I promise you'll find the one." His mother follows, petting Kirishima's hair fondly.
Still. Their logic doesn't make sense to his question, "Then why the courting?"
His father sighs, putting down his chopsticks "I know you are friends with that Bakugo boy." Kirishima's heart jumped at the sudden mention of the alpha "Bakugo?? Y-yes, we're on good terms."
"That is why~" His mother retorts, chewing her rice with a pout.
"Huh?? I don't understand mother, father, what does this have to do with Todoroki?"
"I'll cut to the chase, I do not trust that Bakugo boy being near you Eijiro. You are in your prime, and flourishing.. He's an aggressive alpha and seems to be protective of you when we first encountered him, I do trust that you can take control of things when it goes wrong but Todoroki Shoto was conveniently there when Enji-san was looking for a partner for his son, we just thought that you could get to know him better while being under his protection. It's a rare event that the Todoroki's willingly seek out a candidate, and we're extremely honored that he chose you, so we'd love for you to consider Shoto as your alpha Eijiro. "
There's much that Kirishima would like to address, such as his father's hypocrisy, but the alpha's tone wards 'no argument' which Kirishima regards with a low bow to his head.

12:29 PM
Responsibility: Todoroki-kun can we meet? I have something important to talk about
Climate boi: That's fine, is it ok if we meet in the evening? perhaps at 6? I promised to meet Midoriya already
Responsibility: That's fine, GOOD LUCK ON THE DATE!!! ;))
Climate boi: It's not a date but thank you
Kirishima chuckled; Todoroki is either embarrassed or just plain conflicted. It's probably both.
Speaking of Midoriya, it made him reflect on the stifling guilt he's been harboring for hogging Midoriya's alpha behind his back, It eats at him to not confess the truth, Kirishima felt somewhat responsible to tell Midoriya and Bakugo since they might be indirectly affected by this courting- Though for now, there's nothing he can do. He has to wait for Todoroki's opinion on this, he can't let his feelings take over and make rash decisions that might affect Todoroki as well.
For now, Kirishima will view this courting only as formal meeting between him and Todoroki, nothing else.
----------
Todoroki arrived at their rendezvous on time.
"Todoroki-kun!!" Midoriya calls, he's sitting on one of the high chairs in the café; sipping on a beverage and dressed in his usual red high-tops sneakers, a shirt with sheeps on them, and brown khakis. He looks cute.
"Good afternoon Midoriya, I hope you didn't wait too long," Todoroki took his hand, giving it a soft peck. The omega blushed, bashfully retracting his hand "T-That's fine, I only just arrived minutes ago and I feel like drinking coffee, that's all!"
Todoroki chuckled, "That's great then, shall we go?" He offered his hand for Midoriya to take, who accepted it gratefully as he clutched at his forearm.
------
"Where is it that we're going again??" They were both strolling down Hosu city; passing by cafes and stores alike "It's not far from here, I saw this restaurant on patrol with my old man and thought you might like it."
Midoriya's heart did the mambo- "Oh… You think Iida-kun will like it too?" he tries to direct the attention away from himself, currently not strong enough to prevent any stupid thoughts from forming if he gets into his head too much.
"Nope. Pretty sure it's just you." Todoroki flashed a smile at him, chuckling at Midoriya's palm.
"-Speaking of you, it's here." Todoroki steered them to a restaurant with a big neon sign spelling 'HERO' – the building itself was bright and eye-catching, painted with murals of heroes, All Might being the largest amongst them all. Life-size figurines of top chart heroes are also displayed near the entrance of the restaurant.
"I'm not sure if I should feel ecstatic or embarrassed for knowing most of these heroes." Midoriya studied the mural in awe, Todoroki chuckled, definitely amused. "Be ecstatic, you haven't seen nothing yet, let's get inside."
The atmosphere upon entering is vibrant, surrounded by the chatter of fans and guests taking pictures of their meal– The cement walls around them are decked with framed posters of heroes, slogans painted the walls in colors and Hero cards decorated the tables behind a glass film.
"[Gasp] No way!! Is that the limited edition All Might x N*ruto poster???"
"Good afternoon sir and yes, it is. How many would there be?"
"Just two please," Todoroki responds while Midoriya fawns over the giant poster of All Might running plastered on the cashier wall. "You can take a picture of it later, c'mon." Todoroki drags the omega with him.
------
Todoroki doesn't know what's wrong with his ears but he can hear a low pitch whine ringing over it "Hey, Midoriya do you hear tha-"
The omega lowered his menu to reveal an awestruck face; his green eyes were wide with wonder, "T-Todoroki-kun… I wanna get everything in this menu!" stars animatedly bounced off the omega's eyes, then he started rambling about heroes and their deeds. Todoroki watched Midoriya happily rants - there's no way IIda would enjoy this like you do, is what he wants to say. But refrains, content to watch Midoriya babble his heart out - Conveniently, the low whine stopped.
------
"Do you want to visit my house for a bit?" Midoriya sheepishly offers as they wait for the train to come.
"Ah- I'm sorry, I can't. I have to meet Kirishima after this."
"O-oh…" Midoriya visibly deflates, "Todoroki-kun, is there something going on that you're not telling us? I won't judge…"
Todoroki wanted nothing more than for this courting to be over and tell the omega what's wrong, but he can't bring himself to make Midoriya worry now, "There is something going on but I'm dealing with it just fine, so you don't have to worry Midoriya." he pets those green curls.
The train arrived, "R-right, sorry for intruding then. I'll see you on Monday!" Midoriya waves, "Don't apologise. And Yes, I'll see you on Monday, have a good night Midoriya." he watched the omega board the train, wistfully waving back at him.
----------
Five hours went by like nothing "Hah… I guess I should get ready." Kirishima went upstairs to take a bath. Taking his chastity belt off was always a struggle, there are just too many straps and belts to keep track of – A minute goes by when he finally succeeded on unstrapping the straps on his thighs, moving on to the crotch he unbolts the lock and unfastened the metal cup, though Kirishima made a mistake of yanking the leather off when the tantalizing friction drew a moan past his lips. "Shit. It has been some time…" Kirishima unbuckled the waist buckle and laid down on the bed "Ha- mnn…" He imagined strong hands spreading his legs; rough palms would squeeze his thighs hard to show him whose alpha – Kirishima cupped his crotch to aid his imagination, bringing his half-chub to a full mast.
Then a masculine voice would whisper dirty things to his hear… You like that Kirishima? Yes! Of course you do, you're a fucking slut, MY slut.YES I'm yours please, What do you want Kirishima? My knot? Do you want me to fill you up? Make you nice and round at the end of it?
Kirishima felt slick run down his slit at the image of being filled. He swapped his attention to the soft folds just below his balls, gushing with slick and ready for a knot. Spreading the folds, he revealed a pink unsullied vagina – Look at that hole, so pretty and tight, all mine to fucking wreck. "Ha- un, y-yes alpha…" he slid a finger in, his soaked hole promptly sucked the digit in greedily. Do you like it hard my omega? For you to take it to the hilt? Can you really take me in? I'll do my best for you my alpha, I'll keep you satisfied that you'll want more. He adds another finger, pace swift and grueling to catch that knot tying his orgasm. That's my omega, so generous, so good for me, you're perfect Kirishima.
He moans, desperate to catch his release, he adds a third finger in, curving it to hit that sensitive bundle of nerves on the roof of his channel "HA! Mm… alpha please," Oh Kirishima, are you sure you're stretched enough for me? Alpha please! If it's you I'll take what you'll give me. Just…PLEASE! Fuck. You're a fucking minx Kirishima. He slammed his knuckles at those bundle of nerves, punching a squirt right out of him "BAKUGO!" he hitched, body strung with the intensity of his orgasm- Kirishima squirted hard on his sheets and floor.
Panting at the last of it, he lets his quivering legs fall open, cooling down his heated vagina "Shit…" he pants, completely debauched from that orgasm.
It's been so long since he masturbated, and the epiphany that he just masturbated outside a heat, and to Bakugo of all people is embarrassing yet so arousing, would the real thing be as dominant? He wonders.
"I'm so screwed."
----------
Kirishima decided on casual clothing, he wore a white V-neck t-shirt under a jean jacket and cargo pants, he kept his hair tied into a ponytail to avoid wasting any more time than necessary.
"Eijiro, where are you going?" His mother eyed his attire in confusion.
"Meeting Todoroki mom, we're having dinner together."
"Oh! That's wonderful~ you don't need money then right? Todoroki will take care of that." His mother smiled, seemingly happy that his son is getting along with his suitor "Have fun you two!" she shooed him out the door, Kirishima quickly toed his air max in, tripping a little out the door "Y-yeah, see you." He bows before sprinting to the train station.
----------
He instantly spotted Todoroki's mismatched hair amongst the sea of people– they decided to meet at an outdoor restaurant in Hosu city, which at the moment is currently filled with the bustling Sunday crowd.
"Todoroki-kun! Sorry I'm late, I was preoccupied with something at home." He blushed a little at the thought of being late due to horniness.
"That's fine, I didn't wait too long." Todoroki handed him the menu "Now what is it that you want to talk about?"
Kirishima took the menu, his body language turning sheepish. "W-well that is- uh, it's about Bakugo." Todoroki leaned forward at the mention of the other alpha's name, "Todoroki-! You're so embarrassing!!" Kirishima pushed him away.
Todoroki chuckled, evading Kirishima's hands - "No what is it, seriously."
"[Sigh] Well, he texted me yesterday and I need your opinion on what to reply." He gave Todoroki his phone, the alpha read the last message sent to Kirishima- "It's sweet that you have a nickname for him," he casually comments "And I know I said to keep it a secret, there'll be circumstances if you tell him."
"Then what should I do??" he whines, fingers toying at the menu's dismantled edges.
"Well Kirishima.. At this point you are aware that he's possessive of you right?"
Kirishima turned into the shade of a tomato "Y-yeah, it's probably nothing though! His first impression of me was pretty bad, I was hurting and in a lot of distress, I think that might've triggered something in him that made him possessive of me."
"Oh… I didn't know that, that might be the case,"
Kirishima didn't expect Todoroki to agree so casually- he was actually expecting the alpha to be more critical of the theory, perhaps offer insights that Bakugo might be… Interested.
"Did you tell Midoriya you were courting me?" Kirishima flipped the table before he falls down the pit of deprecation.
"No I didn't.... I would rather have this courting be over with, then tell him. As of now it's not his problem to know nor worry about." Todoroki confidently states.
"Huh… well, have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe, Midoriya suspects something?"
"What is your point Kirishima?" The alpha raised an eyebrow.
"I'm just saying that what if, hypothetically, Midoriya reciprocates your feelings and is in pain knowing the fact that you're courting me, a friend of his. Would you tell him then?"
Todoroki processed Kirishima's speculation. There is a possibility that Midoriya already knew or suspects something. The omega is insightful; Todoroki would give him that, though if Midoriya does know and is hurt by it, would he tell him?
"Bringing somebody else to a personal business isn't really wise, even if feelings are involved. I would just tell Midoriya that I'm dealing with it just fine and that he doesn't have to worry."
"But- What if he's not convinced? What if Midoriya feels dejected that you're rejecting his concerns…? He probably thinks you're rejecting his affection as well, but that's just a guess though~"
"Are you simulating yourself in this question?" Todoroki smugly smirks, catching the subtle hint beneath his notion.
"Damn you." Kirishima seethes. He really shouldn't have thought of it, Todoroki isn't in the top of the class for nothing the bastard is just as perceptive as Bakugo.
"-It doesn't hurt to guess right? I just want to imagine Bakugo's other perspective,"
"Huh, were you not satisfied with my first answer?" His smirk widens, Kirishima had to grit his teeth to avoid punching himself for being so oblivious once again, "No. There's just other possibilities to Bakugo's possessiveness ya know, it doesn't just have to be his pity for me…"
"It can also be his possessiveness towards a mate," they both exclaims.
Todoroki chuckles "Well it's fine to keep both sides of the coin with how unexpected Bakugo could be."
Kirishima's feelings finally felt validated upon hearing that "Then should I tell him?" he excitedly chirps, Todoroki pulled a pensive stance - "My answer would still be no. We still don't know which possessive feelings Bakugo has for you, and it's too risky to guess, I think for you to carelessly share this can really cause unwanted problems. The best option for us now is to play dumb. Just do as I say and tell him you're doing fine, besides this'll only go on for three weeks, not a big deal."
Todoroki's words holds a semblance of truth. He's right, it could be troublesome if he confessed only for him to rile out trouble, not to them alone, but to Bakugo as well as Midoriya. He has no choice, he has to follow Todoroki's plan.
"… Fine."
----------
Kaminari was strolling down Hosu city walk when he caught sight of Todoroki's mismatched hair amongst the crowd, he pulled on Sero's arm, about to tell him, when Kaminari also caught sight of a familiar redhead accompanying the alpha "Holy shit Sero. Is that Kirishima and Todoroki?!"
"Hah??? Where..?" Sero glanced around for the two redheads and a half. Kaminari pulled his jaw to the direction of a packed restaurant, there in the middle of the crowd slightly covered by bustling bodies is Kirishima and Todoroki. Just the two of them, looking fairly affectionate, Kirishima was pushing the alpha's face away while Todoroki chuckled, the alpha's posture looking relaxed.
"Wuh… What the hell?"
"I know right?! I thought Todoroki was into Midoriya!" Kami watched the two in complete disbelief.
"Holy crap… Could it be?" The blonde waits for him to continue "—That Todoroki is secretly a playboy??" Kaminari dramatically gasped, "Kami take a picture! we need to confront Kiri later." The blonde nods, taking his phone out to snap a couple shots.
"Never thought going out on a Sunday would be this rewarding." Kaminari snickers, observing the pictures he took. "I'm sending this to Bakugo,"
