A Tough Lasagne

The first thing Shouto registered upon reaching home was the distinct scent of fresh herbs.

"Something smells good." He murmured as he took off his shoes before heading to the kitchen in search of his favourite chef.

Said chef was spotted by the wares rack, turning over the cups on the counter. Lips curving into a smile at the sight of him, Shouto approached Izuku, wrapping his arms around Izuku's small waist."I'm home."

"Ah! Welcome home, Shouto."Izuku turned to give Shouto a warm smile."I didn't hear you come in."

"You were a little occupied." Shouto remarked.

If Izuku tensed up at the remark, Shouto did not notice, inquiring about source of delicious aroma instead."What are you making?"

Paying a glance at the oven, Izuku answered."Lasagne, it'll be ready soon."

"Great." Shouto's mouth watered at the prospect of eating Izuku's lasagne again since it had been a while since Izuku last made it. Thus rolling up his shirt sleeves, Shouto washed his hands next and planned to fetch the tableware from the cupboard when Izuku grabbed Shouto's hand, stopping Shouto.

"I can handle it, you can get changed."Izuku gently assured his partner.

Never one to deny Izuku anything, the man made quick work of showering and changing, padding into the kitchen later that evening. However sounds of rummaging filled the air as Izuku riffled through the drawers, intent on finding something.

"What are you looking for?" Shouto lifted a brow.

"D-don't worry about it." Izuku waved a hand in dismissal, changing the subject."Dinner's on the table, we should eat before the food gets cold."

The pair walked into the dining room accordingly and took their seats at the table. Glancing down at the plate of layered noodles, packed with cheese, mushrooms and sauces, Shouto eagerly reached for the fork and dug in, savouring the rich flavour."This is so good, Izuku."

Expecting Izuku's response, Shouto took another bite of the lasagne."I saw Urakaka on the job, she asked for you."

When silence stretched between them, Shouto's eyes flickered towards his partner who was in fact staring into space, his food remaining untouched. But before Shouto could voice any concern, Shouto bit down on something hard, something that could not possibly be food.

"What is this?" Shouto frowned as he pulled a ring out of his mouth.

Letting out a sharp gasp, Izuku brought a shaky hand to his own mouth."Oh god, no!"

That reaction twisted Shouto’s insides, leaving no doubt in Shouto’s mind that Izuku recognised the piece of jewellery. Moreover, Izuku had acted strangely evasive all evening, now Shouto thought about it. Was this ring what Izuku was looking for? Why did Izuku even have it in the first place?

"What is going on?" Shouto asked, voice laced with uncertainty.

Shame coloured Izuku's face red."I-I was supposed to surprise you with my proposal, now it's all ruined....I don't even know how the ring got into the lasagne."

Oh you. Shouto's eyes shone at the stunning admission, his gaze softening with gratitude for his lover."Well, you did surprise me."

Slumping into the chair, Izuku pouted."That's not what I meant, I wanted it to be romantic."

Shouto reached for a napkin right then and there, deciding upon the best line of action needed to cheer up his partner. Thus wiping the gold band until it gleamed, Shouto walked over to his partner's side, depositing the ring into his partner's hand."Put it on me."

"Does this...mean?" Izuku choked, eyes growing wide.

"Yes, I want to marry you too." Shouto cupped Izuku's face, his thumb traced Izuku's soft skin."Just knowing that you want to be with me like this, has made me the happiest man, Izuku."

A touched Izuku leapt into Shouto’s arms, crying tears of joy against Shouto’s neck."I love you, Shouto!"
