Chapter Text
Let it be noted that Katsuki did not want to fucking do this stupid dating show bullshit that the old hag had signed him up for. He'd rather be at home or at his restaurant working on his new fucking recipe he'd came up with. Instead, here he was about to be dropped off at some mansion waiting on 10 strange women and to top it off he had to do an interview before they arrived.
"Thirty days just thirty fucking days and then you can go home." He mumbled under his breath as the limo stopped.
The driver opened the door for him and as soon as he stepped out he was greeted by the director then showed to the room where he'd be doing his interview. It wasn't too bright at least and the camera man wasn't bad to look at either. Full stop, he turned to glance once more at the man going to stand behind the camera the one he'd be sitting in front of in the next few minutes. He was a little shorter than him, he had freckles along his cheeks and the bridge of his nose, big beautiful green eyes, and green curls. Holy hell he would be more than okay to do the interview if he was the one behind the camera every time.
The director got his attention pulling his gaze away from looking at the camera man leading him to get his hair and make up touched up. Once he was deemed ready he was lead back to where he'd be doing the interview and the producer grinned shaking his hand.
"Mr. Bakugou, pleased to meet you I'm Yamada Hizashi the show's producer, but feel free to call me Mic everyone does!"
"Call me Katsuki or Bakugou the whole mister thing makes me think you're talking to my old man."
Yamada chuckled nodding, "Alright then, Katsuki, you'll be mainly talking about yourself and why you're here. I know your mother is the one who signed you up, but for my jobs sake try your best to enjoy the experience!"
"Ready to roll when you are, Mic!" a cheerful voice calls out grabbing Katsuki's attention.
It was the cute freckled camera man who was now leaning on his camera with a grin. Mic didn't have shit to worry about if the cute ass nerd was the one staying behind that camera.
"Thanks Izuku! Okay, time for you to get comfortable and don't worry we'll ask questions for this first one. Any other time you get put in secluded spots it's mainly for your first opinion of the ladies and after any dates."
"Sounds fucking easy enough."
Katsuki moves to take his seat and relaxes when he catches a glimpse of Deku, who the hell names their son Deku, and smirks just as Mic calls out their rolling.
"So, Katsuki tell us about yourself! We all know you for your famous restaurant DynaMight and your parents are famous fashion designers, but we want to know one of America's most eligible bachelors behind the fame!"
Shrugging he keeps his eyes on that glimpse of green behind the camera, "I'm just like anyone else, shit, I work and go home. I mean it'd shock some people if they knew I got a pet snake named Satan and a pitbull named Ace."
"Oh! What kind of snake?" Katsuki smirked when he realized it was Deku who'd asked the question. The damn nerd sounded excited over the fact he had one or maybe he thought he wouldn't know the breed of his own snake.
"Heh, he's a California Kingsnake but if you wanna be real specific", he says this with a playful wink before continuing, " he's a mosaic morph. Got him as a graduation gift after college he's just now 4ft long."
Mic chuckled nodding before continuing on, "Sounds like a very nice nope rope! A question a lot of people asked is why find love now?"
Letting out a hum he looks as if he's thinking a bit, but in reality, he's just trying to get a glimpse at the nerd, "Honestly, it's not that I never tried. Shits, just hectic when you're well known you never know when somebody wants to be with you for what you can give them material wise and shit. I don't expect a lot I just wanna find somebody that makes everyday worth it, wants me for me and not just for being some celebrity."
"Understandable! Now onto the more fun questions! What is the best relationship advice you were ever given?"
This made him chuckle, "My old man, he told me go for the person who sees your flaws and the ugly shit you got and still chooses you. To choose the person who doesn't want to change me, but makes me want to be a better fuckin man for myself and for them."
"Your dad sounds amazing." There was Deku's voice again only softer and for some reason it made Katsuki feel all fucking warm inside and he let a small smile slip.
"He is."
Mic smiled noting the small smile on the other's face before asking, "What song always pumps you up when it comes on?"
"Oh man, it's gotta be the fucking song Fuel by Metallica. My staff and idiot friends have heard me crank it up anytime it comes on." he says grinning.
"Their a great band! Okay only a few left. How do you feel about kids?"
"Ah, I know people know I'm this huge asshole and I am don't get me fuckin wrong. But I actually like kids. There's this kid who I hired at my new restaurant. He reminds me of how I was he's got a fuckin attitude sometimes, but he never fails in trying to piss me off when I can't let him help in the kitchen during busy hours. Most of the time I'll let him stay late to teach him stuff he said he wanted to do something for his own old man gotta admire him for that."
Mic looks over to Izuku when he sees him covering his mouth suddenly arching an eyebrow only for the other to mouth "Kouta." Causing his eyes to widen and grin before mouthing, "Ask him. Its ok!" Izuku shakes his head until Mic gives him a playful glare only for him to roll his eyes in return before asking quietly.
"That kid wouldn't happen to be Kouta would it?"
Katsuki arches an eyebrow, "Depends, you know him?"
That earns him a soft giggle, "That's my kid. Thanks for looking after him."
Katsuki couldn't believe it the fucking kid's old man was this cute as fuck nerd! Shit, was he taken? No Kouta had told him it had always just been them. He smirks before answering.
"He's not a bad fuckin kid and he's pretty proud of his old man. Didn't realize I'd be meeting him though."
Another soft giggle along with Mic chuckling, "Small world! Ah, a personal favorite of mine, what is something you're secretly good at?"
"Hm, not really a fucking secret for my friends or my parents, but I can play the fuckin drums and sing. We all played in a band as teens two of them went on to make a career out of it."
"Nice! What's your idea of a first date? Also, just know the ladies will be planning a date, but you get to pick the first one!"
Katsuki nods then tilts his head back to think on it, and all he can think is how he'd like to do something fun with the nerd in front of him along with his kid. Maybe go to an amusement park then out to eat or something. Shaking his head he looks back at the camera shrugging.
"Nothing over the top. I know most wanna dish out all the money possible for a good first date impression, but that isn't me. So probably going on a hike or something followed by dinner."
"Lowkey dates are the best really! Last question! Who would you say is the couple aside from your parents, that define relationship goals?"
"Oh shit I just know this asshole is going to hold this over my head, but I'd have to say my best friend Eijirou and his husband Shouto. They went through a lot of crap, but somehow, they always made it work. They've been together since our last year of college and been married for two years. Their disgustingly in love, but I couldn't be happier for them."
"Aww! Well that's all for now so let's get you ready to meet the ladies!"
The green light turns red signalling that filming had stopped. Mic calls out he'll be right back leaving Katsuki there with Izuku who was doing something behind the camera. Nothing else to do at the moment he moves from his seat to walk around the camera and smirks.
"Deku, right?"
He chuckles when the other jumps a bit blushing as he looks up at him with those pretty green eyes, fuck, his eyes are so damn pretty.
"We should get you a bell! My names actually Izuku."
"Ah makes sense. No way someone as cute as you could be fucking useless, but I think I'll stick with Deku since you can do your job pretty fucking well."
Izuku giggles shaking his head, "I don't know Kacchan I'm a mess in the kitchen you'd yell at me like Kouta talks about."
Arching his brow he takes in the fact this man is actually flirting back and isn't about to let this moment just slip by, "Hmm maybe or, wait, Kacchan?"
"Mhmm you wanna call me Deku then I get to call you Kacchan."
"Fine then Deku~" he lets it roll off his tongue almost like a purr and smirks at the way those green eyes widen just a bit.
"You can call me fuckin Kacchan or whatever. Just don't let any of the others hear ya."
Before they can continue their banter however Mic is back at his side, "Alright I'm back. Sorry about that Shouta, the executive producer and my husband, was letting me know the ladies will be here soon. You'll be put in a spot outside to wait for them after they all do their own small interviews."
"Got it. So, do I fucking have to like deal with them all night too? My old hag didn't exactly specify any of this shit."
Izuku has to cover his mouth to keep from out right laughing and Yamada chuckles, "It's a reality show, Katsuki, so we got cameras throughout the mansion. This room is mainly for interviews or well confessions for the viewers watching. You are, however, allowed time alone after any single or group dates. Plus, you get the master bedroom so you won't be bothered when you want to retire for the night."
Katsuki sighs nodding. At least it's only thirty fucking days, and now he's also got the fact he can talk to Deku during the rest of his stay. Who needs to worry about ten strange ass women when he's got a cute nerd who's already got all of his attention without even knowing it yet.
Mic watched as Katsuki was lead to his next spot so he could wait for the women before turning to lead Izuku to the next camera spot set up where each woman would stop to give their thoughts on being here and on Katsuki. As the two sat up the older man nudged him.
"So Izuku, my favorite green bean, I figure I'll let you help out with all the ladies and then I need you on our lighter camera set up for when Katsuki has to do snippets when he meets each of them."
The freckled man looks over at him confused, "But isn't that for one of the-"
"Not for the first impressions. Now when it's him mingling we'll have you hang out in the background with the rest of the crew since it's why we got the remote cameras."
"Oh, okay then. Is Kouta and Eri coming up today? I can't thank you and Aizawa enough for letting him stay here with me after he's done with work."
Mic nods, "Of course! Plus, it gives Eri someone to hang out with."
Izuku snorts, "More like awkwardly flirt. I swear those two suck at hiding that their dating."
Chuckling the other nods before waving at one of the crew members, "Well time to get ready for the ladies!"
A green light flicked on signaling they were rolling and Izuku and Mic watched the monitor as a limo rolled up. The driver rushed around with a smile opening the door. A petite woman with short brunette hair stepped out in a nice blouse and skirt paired with some heels. She had an overly sweet smile on her face as her eyes widened taking in the mansion. The cameraman outside getting the entrances capture her gaze on camera as she took a flute of white wine and headed inside.
The brunette was still smiling as she reached the spot inside the mansion's living room where she'd be asked a few things before taking a seat or stand somewhere in the living room until all the ladies had entered.
Mic gave her a charming smile, "So tell us a bit about yourself."
"I'm Ochako Uraraka, I'm 23, and I'm a model! I can't believe I got picked out of so many other amazing women."
Izuku had to resist the urge to roll his eyes over the way she talked in that overly sweet voice. Mic nodded, "What's your thoughts going into this? You'll be going against nine other women for Katsuki's attention."
She took a sip of her wine with a smile, "I'm nervous, but confident that I can be the person for someone as amazing as the Katsuki Bakugou! I mean we're both in competitive fields if you think about it. The cooking industry is always looking for the next best thing and modeling is about who can do the job justice for the designer or product their representing. Plus, he's definitely nice to look at!"
With that she walks away and Izuku looks over to Mic who is trying not to laugh. Honestly, this was going to be a field day. The next girl to walk in had on a sundress and her red hair was up in a ponytail she smiled as she walked over to them holding her wine.
"You seem shocked." Izuku says softly. He could tell by the way she took in her surroundings that she felt a bit overwhelmed.
She giggled shaking her head, "More like overwhelmed? Definitely not what I'm used to."
Mic chuckled giving her a thumbs up behind the camera, " It can be a bit nerve wracking. Take your time."
Nodding she took a sip of her wine before talking, "I'm Itsuka Kendo, I work as a pediatrician here in one of the local hospitals here in California, and I'm 26."
"How's it feel to be meeting someone like Katsuki?"
"It's definitely a lot to take in, but I think despite the whole fame and celebrity nonsense he's just like any other guy. I can't wait to get to know him."
She smiled brightly once more before going to sit next to Ochako on the sectional both introducing themselves and talking as another girl walks in. Izuku's eyes widen, wait, he knows her! She has a grin on her face, long blonde hair swept in a side braid, as she walks over in a nice top and jeans eyes going wide when she notices Izuku behind the camera.
"I see you know our camera man." Mic says looking from Izuku back to her.
"Oh yeah I do! I'm his kid's teacher! The name's Camie Utsushimi and I'm 28. Small world, huh greenie?"
Izuku bites his lip nodding to keep from laughing at how excited his friend could be. She didn't even tell him she'd gotten picked!
"So, I'm super stoked to meet Katsuki, but I won't lie this place is a lot to take in."
Mic nods, "I'm sure you'll do just fine Camie. So do you think you'll be the right one for Katsuki?"
The blonde taps her chin before giving a genuine smile, "Honestly, I'm not sure. What I am sure of is I'll be myself and if we don't hit it off romantically then I'd be fine with being friends, ya know?"
With that she threw a wink at the camera making Izuku shake his head as she walked off. When the next girl entered, she was dressed similarly to Ochako, but her hair was silver and styled in a pixie cut. She gave a small smile to the two before introducing herself.
"I'm Reiko Yanagi, I'm 25, and I'm a lawyer. I hope to make an impression when I meet Katsuki, but who really knows how things will go. I think he seems misunderstood even if he is quite loud."
They watch as she joins the others and Izuku has to hold back any snickers at least she was straight to the point. Mic shook his head keeping his own mouth covered to hide his twin snickers at the woman as the next entered. Needless to say she was similar to Reiko. Her name was Ibara Shizoka with long green hair at the age of 22 she worked mainly as a Nurse and was actually friends with Itsuka, but she felt she could be the woman of Katsuki's dreams if he managed to calm his temper.
That alone had both men ready to burst at the seams seeing as Katsuki didn't want anyone who planned on trying to force him to change. With lunch time coming up the other girls started arriving inside a little quicker, but none the less excited. Mei Hatsume was a local engineer who'd just made it big for one of her projects at only 23. She's excited to meet the man who makes one of her favorite dishes, but also just wants to see if they're compatible before declaring she's he's best match. Melissa Shield was a well known model as well, but she'd flown in from LA since she'd just wrapped up from promoting her own fashion line at the young age of 21. She was the youngest of the group of women, but felt she'd be the one to sweep the angry chef off his feet.
As Melissa walked away she was instantly pulled over to sit near Ochako to talk seeing as the two were models it made sense they'd possibly get along. The next woman to join was Nejire Hadou she worked with pre schoolers and was 27. She felt like maybe her upbeat personality would get Katsuki to be less of a grump, her words, not theirs. She also seemed to be a bit in shock over the mansion and the fact two well known models were amongst her competition. Momo Yaoyorozu walked in as if she was used to places such as these and smiled genuinely at the two.
"I'm Momo Yaoyorozu, I'm 28 and I know I'm well known for the movies I've been in, but I hope to get to know Katsuki outside of the whole fame and celebrity circle. He seems amazing at what he does, but even if we don't work out I'll be happy for whatever happens. Everyone deserves love."
"That's really sweet Momo." Izuku says as she smiles before going to join the rest.
"Last of the ladies just arrived." Mic whispered softly.
The door opened and a girl with long brown hair walked in wearing a nice blouse and some jeans smiling sweetly as she reached them.
"I'm Tooru Hagakure, I'm 26, and I work as a dispatcher for one of the local fire stations. I- wow, this place is huge."
Giggling she takes a sip of her wine, "I know I'm not like super famous or whatever, but who knows maybe I can be the one to tame Katsuki."
With that she winks at the camera before joining the others. Izuku watches for the green light to turn red before finally cracking out in light giggles next to Hizashi until they hear a voice behind them.
"Alright you two calm down."
"Shouta!" Mic says turning to grin at his husband.
"Sorry bout that 'Zawa." Izuku says once he's calmed down.
Shaking his head the man hands them both a burger, "Eat up. Izuku we got the portable camera ready for you. Mic you get to keep an eye on things in here while we make sure everything is ready out back in the patio so they can all come out to meet Katsuki."
Izuku mocks salutes them both as he heads out back careful not to get in view of any cameras since their still filming the girls all talking in the living room. Sighing he goes to where the portable camera is sitting and starts eating when he hears a whispered.
"Hey Dekuu~"
Jumping he lets out a yelp almost dropping the last of his food making the blonde behind him chuckle even as those green eyes are finally looking at him with a glare.
"Kacchan! You can't just sneak up on me! You almost made me drop my foood." he whines.
"Sorry bout that. I take it all the fucking ladies are here?" Katsuki asks as the nerd finishes his food with a light giggle.
"Yup and they can't wait to sweep you off your feet."
Unable to help himself Katsuki crosses his arms over his chest as he leans against the table with a smirk watching as those green eyes seemed to rake along his body. He was so fucking thankful he went for his signature black t-shirt that clung to his muscled biceps and his jeans.
"Yeah? What about you, Deku? Think you could sweep me off my feet?"
The nerd just had to fucking surprise him with the way his eyes seemed to flash with a hint of mischief and smiled, fuck he really liked this man's smile. He also really enjoyed how fucking easy it was to talk or flirt with him. Given the choice Katsuki would rather spend the next thirty days just getting to know this adorable nerd.
"Hmm, I dunno Kacchan. You seem to be doing just fine."
Shaking his head he leaned in until they were face to face enjoying the light blush on freckled cheeks. Shit he wouldn't mind kissing every single one of them.
"Just fine? What if I wanna do more than just fine with you, nerd?"
The two jump apart when Aizawa calls out, "Katsuki we're ready for you over by the patio."
Leaning back he smirks and with out second guessing it he ruffles those messy curls saying in a much lower husky tone, "Too bad you can't catch my opion of you out there. See you in a bit Izu~ku."
Blushing the greenett bites his lip grabs the portable camera to get in a spot until the blonde needs to step off to the side to give his first impressions of the girls. And if he privately wished he could have the other's opinion about him on camera well, nobody had to know.
This was absolute hell. Katsuki was standing on the back patio as Aizawa called out rolling and the back doors of the mansion opened and ten women made their way out. Internally, he was cursing his old hag and externally he made sure his face stayed neutral aside from his signature smirk. The first girl to greet him was a lot shorter than him and a silver pixie cut. He could barely hear her over anyone else but nodded as if he was listening.
"Hey there!"
He turned to see a girl with blueish purple hair and a grin on her face, "I'm Nejire it's nice to meet you in person Katsuki."
Nodding he reaches for a flute of wine taking a sip, "Nice to meet you. So, what do you do?"
"Oh! I'm a preschool teacher. I absolutely love working with kids their great. You know, you're just like I thought."
Arching a brow, he looks down at her, the hell was that supposed to even mean, and says calmly, "What? An asshole? I mean I never denied it."
She giggles shaking her head, "Maybe a little, but it's okay! I bet I can get you out of being a grouchy pants."
Izuku bit his lip from where he stood, ouch they really just want to change his attitude, and shook his head at how this woman really thinks she can just change someone she literally just met. Katsuki merely shrugs as she moves away to grab some snacks and he turns to walk off only to come face to face with Izuku holding the camera up smiling.
"So, Katsuki, what's your thoughts on Reiko and Nejire?"
Shoving his empty hand in his pocket he takes another sip of his wine, "Don't know much about, Reiko could barely fucking hear her talkin to me. Nejire reminds me of my fucking friend at home way to fucking loud and I hate how the first thing I get told by someone I just met that they can change me. Heh, don't think she'll be sweeping me off my feet or whatever."
With a wink he takes another sip of his wine and Izuku gives him a thumbs up as he stops filming on the portable camera. Biting back a giggle he watches as Ibara waves him over to talk with her. Luckily, he moves again so he stays out of any filming or to where a mic can hear him finally let out a few laughs when he sees the ash blonde getting wide eyed over whatever he was being told.
"I think with couples therapy we'd be a good match. Although the whole bad boy temper and clothing needs to go. How do you feel about a quick engagement? I want kids pretty early."
"Woah, slow the hell down. We literally just met, uh?"
"I'm sorry my names Ibara. I'm actually a nurse at one of the local hospitals."
Katsuki nods, "Okay Ibara, you seem nice. So, let's just focus on getting to know each other first."
The woman nods and before she can say or ask anything else he's being pulled away by a girl with black hair and he instantly recognized her.
"Momo?"
She grinned nodding, "Hey Katsuki."
"The hell you doin' here?"
He smirks when she glares up at him, "Oh you know how my parents are. They think this will make you see we're 'meant to be' and all that jazz."
This causes both of them to laugh and he shakes his head before talking in a much lower voice so it can't be picked up, "Even though you only love the ladies."
Nodding she grins, "Don't worry Kats you can count on me to comfort one of these girls. I don't expect you to pick me."
Suddenly the blonde gets an idea, "Actually, you just might be paying me back from that time in college."
Arching a brow, she looks at him curiously, "Ok then. Spill it to me later then."
They finally talk a little louder for the camera's sake before he goes to grab some food and spots Deku waving him over for his next mini clip.
"Ah my elusive Deku~ I'm ready when you are."
He watches the light blush cover freckled cheeks as the other rolls his eyes with a smile.
"You seemed shocked by Ibara. What's your impression of her?"
Katsuki tried but failed at keeping the dry laugh from escaping his mouth, "She uh, oh fuck, she's more than ready for a speedy engagement and kids. I know I got anger issues, but fucking couples therapy? I feel like we'd end up just that awkward couple."
"Ah, and what about Momo? Seems like there could be chemistry there?"
Deku's voice had a teasing tone, but Katsuki didn't care. He didn't want this cute as fuck nerd to think anyone else had his attention when all the blonde wanted was to talk to him. Shrugging he looks back at all the women talking before looking back at the camera.
"Truthfully, Momo is a friend from college. Kinda shocked the hell out of me that she's here."
With a thumbs up Izuku stops filming and looks up at the blonde who was looking right back at him. He tilts his head when Katsuki clears his throat speaking softly like he'd done with Momo.
"Can I tell you a secret Deku?"
Nodding he watches as the man steps closer and whispers, "I'd rather be getting to know this really fuckin' cute camera man. Maybe you know him? He's got the prettiest fucking green eyes and adorable freckles that are like stars on his cheeks."
Licking his lips he glances up through dark lashes to see that smirk on his lips, " Yeah, I know him and he wouldn't mind getting to know this big angry blonde chef that he not only has to film for his job, but it helps he's watched out for his kid who works for him."
Katsuki goes to say something, but Izuku shakes his head, "You gotta get back out there Kacchan."
Clicking his tongue, the taller straightens back up and walks back to where he'd been getting food only to be tugged into a conversation by Tooru, Itsuka, and Mei. They were a lot less judgmental which was easier to deal with, but he was slowly tiring of the same questions, and they kept talking over one another.
Thankfully, he was able to cheer himself up when he caught sight of Deku in between the conversation not realizing he'd be smiling, or his eyes would get just a little softer when he'd see him. After a few more minutes of talking he moved to walk around before walking to where the adorable fucking nerd was waving at him for his next clip.
Those moments literally made it so much easier to deal with listening to all the women talking. Plus, those few moments when they weren't being heard or caught on camera, he got to make those freckles light up with a pretty blush or make him laugh were so much sweeter. He only had three girls left to talk too before everyone settled in for the evening and then it would be a group date night.
Melissa was the first of the last three to find him and pulled him over to a small table to sit.
"I'm Melissa-"
"Shields right? Congratulations on the new line my old hag was pretty proud of it."
She frowned a bit, "Old hag?? You call your mother something so crude?!"
Katsuki snorts shaking his head, "Not a big fuckin' deal when she calls me brat and shit. "
"I see, well I hope if we can make things work you won't be so crass."
Sighing he just shrugs and she continues, "Plus, aside from me and two others I highly doubt anyone else could handle your lifestyle. It happens when your famous."
Now that, that pissed him off. Sure, he was fucking famous as a chef, but it didn't make him different from anyone else. He actually preferred a lowkey life style without all the press in his buisiness.
"Tch, don't act like just because you got shit in common with my folks that we're the same. If you'll excuse me I need some water."
He ignores her asking for him to wait and heads over to where he catches a glimpse of messy green hair. Deku must notice he'd just had a shitty conversation waits before starting any filming, but
Katsuki shakes his head. Holding the camera up he nods to show he was rolling.
"You okay there, Katsuki?"
"M'fine."
"How's your impression of Melissa?"
With scoff the blonde crosses his arms before looking out in the distance, "She seemed okay. That is until she commented on the whole fact anyone who isn't used to fame couldn't handle my lifestyle. Just because I got fame for cooking doesn't mean shit."
A thumb goes up and Izuku shuts off the camera watching the way the other's jaw is clenched and he still hasn't met his gaze.
"Kacchan, you need a minute?"
"Just tell me after the last two I can get a break. I can't handle more bullshit like that."
Nodding he steps closer and sits the camera on a hidden table, "You definitely get a break. Now, will you finally look at me or do I gotta beg, hmm?"
Katsuki smirks and finally looks over at him, "You never gotta beg for me to look at you Izuku. I've been lookin' at you all day."
At least, Izuku thinks, he's back to how he was before the whole Melissa fiasco. Despite feeling the blush on his cheeks, he gives him a cheeky grin.
"Oh, you've been keeping those eyes on me all day, huh Kacchan? What about all those women fighting for your attention?"
Izuku feels a shiver down his spine when a low chuckle escapes from the blonde's lips and he uncrosses his arms sticking his hands in his pockets to move closer and leans in so their face to face with a smirk.
"Kind of pointless to fight for something that I'd rather spend giving it to you, pretty boy." As he says this his voice low and the pet name, much like the nickname Katsuki had given him, rolls off his tongue in a purr dripped in sin.
Izuku feels his breath hitch blushing and he watches when the blonde steps away keeping his eyes on him until he has to turn to be dragged into a conversation. All while Izuku's left with a racing heart.
Katsuki hated walking away before letting Izuku say anything but fuck the way his breath hitched from them being so close. Honestly, the fact they met in secluded spots were good seeing as none of the crew, extra cameras, or even the ten annoying women trying to 'fight' for his attention can't see them. He knows he's fighting back a smile over the last bit of that conversation. It was nice to be able to not be fucking treated as if he was nothing more than some famous asshole. Shaking his head at whatever the fuck Mei was saying about her job he's pulled to the side by a shorter girl with brunette hair cut in bob. She had this overly sweet smile and way too much makeup on.
"Hey Katsuki, I'm Ochako! I think we met in passing during a show I did for your parents."
"Oh? Are you the chick that fucking did the summer walk or some shit?"
"No, I was in the past Spring walk." she said giggling as she wrapped a well-manicured hand around his bicep.
"Wow you're like super strong, huh? Who knew a chef could be so hot."
Clicking his tongue he pulls his arm loose from her grip, "Tch, just because I love cooking doesn't mean I don't enjoy keeping in shape and shit. Anyways, uh what else do you do?"
She tilts her head with a hum, "Mainly modeling!"
"How do you feel about snakes as pets?"
This makes her squirm, "Ew! Their gross and don't some have to like eat live food? Don't tell me you own one!"
Katsuki snorts, "Damn, Satan isn't that bad. Nice talkin' to ya though. I still have one more person to meet."
With that he walks away leaving her behind fuming. He finally finds the last girl she'd snuck off to where he'd been earlier and was talking to Deku. How'd they know each other? He watches the nerd point at him and she grins waving before turning and saying one more thing to Deku and headed towards him. They end up sitting near a tree where a camera has a clear shot of them.
"Sorry about that!" She says with a grin.
"No problem."
"I'm Camie by the way! I teach greenie's kid and as my gay best friend I have to give him shit."
Katsuki sniggers before looking past her to see Izuku glaring daggers at Camie with a red blush on his cheeks.
"Oh~ I definitely get it now." She says getting his attention.
He looks back her, "Get what, hah?"
"Don't worry hot head, kind of figured we'd just hit it off as friends. Just ya know, watch where you're looking with that smile."
Katsuki's eyes widen a bit, shit, he'd been caught by Deku's best friend. Sighing he runs a hand through his hair before whispering to where the mics can't pick it up.
"If it helps, I'd rather be spending time with him then any of those extras, no offense. Kinda got signed up for this, but at least I met Deku."
Camie grins looking from him to where her best friend was now nodding along to whatever the crew member was saying. She looks back to the blonde and nods.
"Tell ya what, if I get any of those solo dates or whatever I'll find a way to get you two alone time."
Katsuki smirks, "Thanks or whatever. C'mon time for me to tell all of you it's time to settle in until the group date later."
The two walk back over to the patio area and he clears his throat to get all the ladies attention.
"It was nice meeting all of you, but I know some of you kind of got flown in pretty early so I'll give you time to settle in. We'll meet in the living room before going to our group date."
With that he walks off so he can do those last two impressions with Deku and smirks when he ends up having to tap his shoulder to get him to turn around. With a soft squeak he turns and pouts up at him.
"I swear you enjoy sneaking up on me! Hmph, let's get this last take and then you can have a break Kacchan."
Katsuki smirks once the camera was up and rolling and Deku prompts him, "So how'd it go with Ochako and Camie?"
The blonde cracks a laugh, "Ochako might not like, Satan too much. She ain't fond of snakes. She said we met before but honestly, I don't remember her. Camie, interestingly enough, seems to know you and your kid Mister Cameraman. Don't think it'll be a love match, but she seems like a pretty decent friend. I'm just glad I can breathe for a bit!"
With a thumbs up he stops filming and grins right as Mic yells for a break in all filming. Izuku takes a seat on the grass to relax, and Katsuki joins him.
"I take it Camie talked shit about me?"
"Nah, just that you were her gay best friend and teaches your kid, so she has the right to give you shit."
Izuku giggles softly shaking his head, "Sounds about right. Look, about earlier are you sure you're okay?"
Katsuki nudges him with his arm to get his attention and lets a genuine soft smile show, "I'm more than okay now Deku. Just got fed up earlier that's all, but thanks for like caring and shit."
"Well, I'm not going to just make you do your clips or something if you need a minute to cool off. Sure, it's reality tv or whatever, but it doesn't mean we don't care if someone needs a minute. Emotions are rough."
"No shit."
The two sit there for a bit longer when Mic calls out.
"Anybody have eyes on Katsuki? We had to move up the dinner to 6pm at the restaurant so we'll need to start filming in thirty!"
Katsuki sighs, "Guess I should get the fuck in there and change."
The two get up and Izuku grabs his camera just as the blonde start to walk off he calls out softly, "Hey Kacchan."
Turning so red eyes can focus on green he tilts his head, "Yeah Deku?"
Licking his lips he lets a mischievous smirk dance on his lips, "Try not to miss me too much."
Chuckling the blonde shakes his head, "Kinda fuckin' hard to not too. Like I said I'd rather spend my time on getting to know you pretty boy."
With that said the greenett watches him walk away and turns to head off to where the crew would be eating only to be stopped by Aizawa.
"Izuku."
"Yes sir?"
"Jeez kid, not so formal. Anyways, I need you to be on the crew for the dinner. The other guy had to leave early his wife went into labor."
Izuku goes wide eyed, "Oh, okay. Can you make sure Kouta stays near you and Eri til we get back?"
Aizawa snorts, "That won't be an issue Izuku the restaurant their dining at is the one Katsuki owns and Kouta is working tonight."
Groaning Izuku just shakes his head, "Great my son and my best friend can torment me now. By the way you and Mic could've warned me Camie got picked."
The older man merely sniggers, "We could've but it was worth seeing you get picked on even if nobody knows who you are, yet. I'm sure Camie or Kouta will have that changed by the end of dinner. Now, go on Problem Child you get to ride with Mic and Katsuki in one car while the ladies take the limo."
Nodding he hands the camera over to Aizawa and takes off to the car where Mic was waiting for him. Looks like Katsuki wouldn't be missing him to much after all at least not tonight anyways.
