Momo handed him the first gift, a sleek black box with a silver ribbon. "This is from me, Izuku," she said with a smile.
Izuku carefully unwrapped the box and opened it to reveal a custom-made utility belt, complete with compartments for various tools and gadgets.
"I thought you could use this for your "hero work". It's made with lightweight, durable material and has some extra features I designed myself."
Izuku beamed. "This is amazing, Momo. Thank you so much." Said Izuku as he kissed her.
Next, Kaina presented him with her gift, a small, elegantly wrapped package. "This is from me. I hope you like it."
Inside was a beautiful pocket watch, engraved with the words "Time is precious, just like you." Kaina explained, "I wanted to give you something meaningful. Every time you check the time, I hope you remember how much you mean to us."
Izuku felt a lump in his throat. "This is perfect, Kaina. Thank you."
Maki handed him her gift, a large box with colorful wrapping paper. "This is for you, Izuku."
Izuku unwrapped the box to find a high-quality training set, including weights, resistance bands, and a new punching bag. "I noticed you've been wanting to upgrade your training equipment. I hope this helps you like it."
Izuku grinned. "Thank you, Maki. This is just what I needed."
Fuyumi stepped forward with her gift, a beautifully wrapped rectangular package. "Here you go, Izuku."
He opened it to find a leather-bound journal with a matching pen. The cover was engraved with his name and a quote: "Write your own story." Fuyumi explained, "I thought you could use this to jot down your thoughts, plans, and dreams."
Izuku nodded, deeply touched. "Thank you, Fuyumi. I'll definitely use this."
Rei was next, handing him a small, neatly wrapped box. "This is from me."
Inside was a stunning pendant necklace, with a small emerald set in the center. Rei said softly, "The emerald represents protection and love. I wanted you to have something that symbolizes how much your presence has helped me and show you just how much we care about you."
Izuku smiled warmly. "Thank you, Rei. I'll wear it always."
The last gift was a group effort. The girls had pooled their ideas and resources to create something truly special. They handed him a large box, wrapped in shiny gold paper. "This is from all of us," Momo said.
Izuku opened the box to reveal a custom-made hero costume, designed by the girls. It was a perfect blend of functionality and style, with features tailored to his needs and preferences. The suit was lightweight, yet incredibly durable, with built-in support for his quirk.
Izuku was speechless. "This... this is incredible. Thank you all so much."
"This suit will be a symbol of hope for the oppressed and terror for the oppressed." The girls said all together.
"Indeed, this is a really thoughtful gift, I'll make sure to wear it from now," said Izuku.
The girls beamed with pride, knowing they had given him gifts that were thoughtful and practical. Izuku hugged each of them in turn, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.
As the night grew late, they all sat together, basking in the warmth of their love and companionship. Izuku felt a profound sense of happiness and contentment, knowing he was surrounded by people who truly cared about him.
Before they went to bed, Izuku gathered everyone for one last heartfelt moment. "Thank you all for the gifts, for the celebration, and for being my family. Today has been the best birthday I could ever imagine. I promise to cherish each of these gifts and remember how much you all mean to me."
The girls smiled, their hearts full of love for Izuku. They knew they had succeeded in making his birthday unforgettable, creating memories that would last a lifetime.
As the night wound down, Izuku smiled warmly at the gathered women. "I have something for each of you as well," he said, standing up and retrieving a small box from a nearby table. The girls looked at him with curiosity and anticipation.
Izuku had this prepared on his way home feeling this was the right time for it.
Izuku handed the first gift to Kaina. She opened the small box to find a beautiful ring set with a sapphire gemstone. "Kaina, I want to marry you," Izuku said, going down on one knee. "Will you be my wife?"
Kaina's eyes filled with tears of joy. "Yes, Izuku! I would love to marry you." She hugged him tightly, overwhelmed with happiness, something that surprised the girls and filled them with more and more anticipation.
Next, Izuku gave Maki her gift. She carefully opened the box to reveal a ring with a ruby gemstone. Izuku knelt down once more. "Maki, will you marry me?"
Maki's face lit up with excitement. "Yes, Izuku! This is the happiest moment of my life." She jumped into his arms, her joy palpable, as she stuck to Izuku like a Koala.
Izuku then approached Momo, handing her a small box. Inside was a ring with an emerald gemstone. He knelt before her. "Momo, will you marry me?"
Momo's eyes sparkled with tears of happiness. "Yes, Izuku! Of course, I will." She hugged him tightly, kissing him deeply, feeling overjoyed.
Fuyumi was next. She opened her box in hurry knowing where this was going, and she was right she found a ring with a topaz gemstone. Izuku went down on one knee. "Fuyumi, will you marry me?"
Fuyumi smiled through her tears. "Yes, Izuku! I'm so happy!" She embraced him, her heart full of love thinking that, with this she is Izuku's completely.
Finally, Izuku approached Rei, who was looking at him with a mix of anticipation and emotion. She opened her box to find a ring with an amethyst gemstone. Izuku knelt before her. "Rei, will you marry me?"
Rei hesitated for a moment, glancing at the ring she wore from Endeavor. Izuku noticed and gently took her hand. "Are you sure, Rei? I want you to be certain."
Rei nodded, removing the old ring and setting it aside. "I'm sure, Izuku. I want to be with you. You have no idea just how many dreams and wishes I had to kill when marrying Endeavour.
I always wanted someone I love to be in this exact same position as you, and propose to me. I'm 100% sure, it has to be you and only you." Tears of joy streamed down her face as Izuku placed the new ring on her finger, as she enveloped Izuku in a very tight hug, crying her heart out, while the girls hugged the duo, caressing the crying Rei.
Izuku after separating from the hug then took out a special ring, adorned with five gemstones, each representing one of the girls. He extended his hand, and together, Kaina, Maki, Momo, Fuyumi, and Rei slid the ring onto his finger. "With this, you've made this the best birthday of my life," Izuku said, embracing them all in a big hug.
The girls' eyes were shining with happiness, each one feeling a deep sense of love and belonging. Kaina's smile was wide as she thought about their future together. Maki's heart raced with excitement, her eyes full of joy. Momo was radiant, her face glowing with happiness. Fuyumi's tears of joy mirrored Rei's, both of them feeling an overwhelming sense of love and contentment.
Izuku looked at each of them, his heart full. "I promise to cherish and love each of you forever. You've made me the happiest man in the world, and in return I'll make you all feel like the happiest women in the world."
The girls nodded, their hearts full of love for Izuku. They knew that this night would be a memory they would cherish forever, the beginning of a new chapter in their lives together. The celebration might be simple and intimate, but the emotions were profound and sincere.
As they all settled down, the girls each expressed their feelings in their own way. Kaina held Izuku's hand tightly, her eyes full of adoration. "I've never been this happy in my whole life, Izuku. I can't wait to spend my life with you."
Maki beamed with excitement. "This is like a dream come true. I'm so glad I met you, Izuku. Thank you for being my everything Izuku."
Momo looked at her ring and then at Izuku, her eyes brimming with tears of joy. "I've always believed in you, Izuku. I'm so proud to be by your side."
Fuyumi wiped her tears, smiling warmly. "You've brought so much happiness into my life, Izuku. I'm so grateful for you."
Rei held Izuku's hand, her heart full of love. "You've shown me what true love and care feels like, Izuku. I can't wait to spend my life with you, even if I have spent half of my life, I promise the next half will be dedicated just to serve you with everything I have."
"You aren't serving me, you are completing me, no need to undermine your value just because you are getting older, if I just wanted your body, I wouldn't have placed the ring on your hand or comforted you.
I would have simply seduced you and had my way with you, but I didn't not because you are Fuyumi's mother or supported my and Fuyumi's relationship.
I helped you, because I knew how you felt, I knew you needed someone to help you, love you, care for you, I saw a reflection of me in you, and wanted to make sure no one goes through the pain like me.
Just like Kaina helped me giving me a direction, I wanted to be a helping hand pulling you out of the darkness and miserable life you were in.
Seeing you like that almost lifeless was crushing my heart, I couldn't handle it, I wanted to fill your whole life with love and happiness that's the reason I pursued this relationship, even when it's called forbidden.
If not for that, I would have stopped you the instance you kissed me, I could have done that any moment, but it felt like it I did that, you would be filled with regret for doing something like that to your own son in law, or tried to use your body to seduce me, of course I wouldn't see it as a characterless act but an act of desperation.
I thought if you are able to feel happiness from the kiss then why not, afterall just like others here, you have also suffered a lot, in fact a lot more than anyone here including me, even you deserve happiness, so don't ever consider yourself lesser than anyone here.
None of my girls are below me or below each other. I might have met them all at different points of time, but they all are here, in this ring, all of them together, and right in my heart." Said Izuku.
Listening which Rei had tears in her eyes, it felt as if Rei had gone back to her teenage feeling love, care and happiness and crying again and again, and honestly it didn't look ugly one bit, seeing Rei being this vulnerable made Izuku want to protect her even more, as he tightened his grip on her.
The fact that she was crying like a baby again and again just showed how much she lacked all of this, as the girls could feel just how much pain and misery she might be in, to react like this to Izuku's words, something which erased the little doubts from Maki and Momo's heart, as they understood adulthood isn't all sunshine and rainbows.
While Kaina and Fuyumi who both of seen the harsh realities with their own eyes, Kaina because of the things she did, while Fuyumi seeing her own mother knew just exactly why Izuku did it, well it doesn't mean that they would let Izuku do it with just any woman that's hurting, since she was Fuyumi's mom they made it an exception.
Feeling Rei's pain all the girls hugged her and Izuku, making sure to convey to Rei that she isn't alone anymore and they are all here for her.
Izuku hugged them all again, feeling an overwhelming sense of gratitude and love. "Thank you, everyone. You've made this the best birthday ever. I love you all so much."
The night had been perfect, filled with love and joy. As they all settled into the warmth of their companionship, the girls looked at Izuku, their eyes shining with curiosity and anticipation.
