Are you suggesting a cook off, pretty boy?// Colby Brock x Reader

Hey! I just wanted to say a quick thank you to @colbybrockfanfic for giving me the idea to this! She posted a story also called ‘Same words, Same heartbreak’ go check it out! Now on with the story..

It started off as a joke. A playful joke, that went too far. --

"So, you're really trying to tell me that you can make better enchiladas than me?" I asked defensively from across the counter. Colby leaned across the table, supporting his weight on his hands, "Damn right." He argued back. This went on for a couple minutes before, "Colby, I grew up making enchiladas! Twice a month, me and my grandma would make them!" I yelled from my spot on the counter. "Babe, you can argue all you want but I'll still make better enchiladas" Colby said smugly, crossing his arms over his chest and moving in front of me. His eyes were full of amusement. I could tell that he was having fun because he knew that he was getting a rise out of me. I hopped off the counter and walked up to him, standing so close that our chest's were almost touching. "Are you suggesting a cook off, pretty boy?" I asked. Colby smirked and leaned down, his nose touching mine, "Hell yeah, I am." He whispered.

Two hours later the kitchen counter top was covered in all of the ingredients and cooking supplies that we would need for this competition. Not to be cocky but everyone that has tried my enchiladas has told me that they were the best that they have ever had. They've also said that with my pozole, but we don't need to talk about that. I'm really not trying to be cocky but some things need to be told, "You know, everyone who has tried my enchiladas, they said they are the best." I told Colby while starting the red sauce. He laughed, when I looked over my shoulder, I saw him shaking his head. "What are you shaking your head at Brock?" I asked fully turning around and grabbing a tortilla. "Just thinking about how blown away your going to by my amazing enchiladas" he cockily said. I rolled my eyes, "mark your words."

I let out a breath once I slipped the pan of uncooked enchiladas into the oven to cook. I wiped the little sweat droplets off with the back of my hand. I turned back to the counter, to start cleaning up my mess but Colby's side of the counter caught my attention. He had one tortilla with the chicken in it...but that's it. In the a hour that it took me to make a full pan, he had made one, plus the look of utter confusion plastered on his face was priceless. I burst out laughing, I didn't mean to but seeing this and replaying the conversation in my head, and how cocky he was, I couldn't contain it. My laugh just bubbled out of my mouth, I was gasping for air once my full out laugh had calmed down to scattered giggles. "Don't laugh at me, it's not nice." Colby's voice cut through my mind and I once again looked over to him. I had to suppress my laughter but I was going to be nice. Or I would try. "Oh baby, do you need help?" I cooed standing next to him. Colby just shook his head and looked down at the mess below him. A couple of seconds passed before he sighed and rubbed his face with his dirty hands, "Why is cooking so damn hard?" his voice muffled by his hands. I giggled again and moved behind him, resting my cheek on his back, my arms around his waist, I asked, "Do you want help?" Colby sighed again and turned around, my arms falling from his waist. He shook his head, "Nope, I can do this by myself." He looked so determined, it was cute. "Okay babe, but I offered" I said as I started to clean up my side of the counter.

Finally after what felt like forever, my space was cleaned and my enchiladas were done. The timer from my phone made me jump from the counter, making Colby chuckle. He had gotten his own pan in the oven about ten minutes ago so he was also cleaning up. I laughed and shook my head at him. I went over to the oven and pulled my glass pan out and switched Colby's to the top rack so it'll get a better cook. I set them on the counter and sighed when the smell of enchiladas filled my nose. It took me back to being a kid and making them with my grandma almost every Sunday. I smiled at the memory, "Thinking about when you were a kid?" Colby asked coming behind me and pulling my back against his chest. I sniffled and wiped my eyes quickly, "yeah, just thinking about when I was kid and all good times with my abuela" I replied leaning back into him. Colby kissed my cheek, "I know you miss home.." he said softly. I nodded my head and turned in his arms, "I do, but I have a new home now." I said. Colby's lips pulled up into a soft smile before he leaned down and kissed me. I brought my arms around his neck and wrapped a soft curl of his hair around my finger. We both jumped back when Colby's phone timer went off, notifying us that his own enchiladas were done. "Let's get these babies out of the oven," Colby said while doing a weird dance over to the oven. I laughed at his dance and went back to plating my hot wraps of deliciousness. Once Colby and I's enchiladas were plated I yelled for the roommates. "You ready to lose?" I asked Colby. "You wish beautiful," he replied.

Corey, Sam, Katrina, and Devyn all stood in front of us. "Okay, so Mr. Cocky over here," I said pointing over at Colby, who rolled his eyes, "thought he could make better enchiladas then me. So we both made separate ones and we want you to try them." I explained, letting my eyes flick from each of my friends. They all agreed to try them, "So you'll try mine first then Colby's," I said putting a plate in front of each of them. "I'm excited cause I'm staving," Katrina said as she cut into her's. "Oh my god" Devyn practically moaned. "Holy fuck Y/n" Corey said looking up at me with wide eyes and a full mouth. I laughed a little and looked over at Sam who was yet to say anything. When my eyes met his, he smiled widely, "This...is fucking amazing." he said. "Thank you" I said bowing a little which made everyone laugh. "Alright, my turn." Colby said handing them his plates. Devyn and Katrina took a bite at the same time, I watched their eyes go wide. They sat back and swallowed, "It's good Colby," Devyn said wiping her mouth with her napkin. "Yeah" Katrina agreed avoiding eye contact. I stifled a giggled and look at Corey who was trying to sneakily spit out his bite and Sam who, well poor guy looked like he just ate a fly. "So, I'm taking the silence and all of the looks on your faces that's it's bad." Colby asked. They all shook their heads, but Sam spoke up, "It's not bad brother, but maybe just have Y/n teach you how to make them?" he suggested. I openly laughed with everyone else, including Colby. Once we quite down Corey spoke, "So you're not mad that we don't like your's" he asked looking skeptically at Colby. He threw his head back and laughed, "Nah brother, I knew that I would loose, I only did this because I like getting her all riled up" Colby said pointing at me. My mouth hung open, "I knew it, you bitch." I said slapping him on the chest. We all shared a laugh and we all ate an enchilada before they disbursed, going to do their own thing while Colby and I cleaned up again. " Can you actually teach me how to make them though?" Colby asked pulling me into a hug, I giggled and nodded against his chest, "Of course baby." I replied "Thank you" he said chucking. I breathed out a laugh, "Gotta make sure that our kids aren't going to be eating bad food," "Hey!" Colby exclaimed laughing with me. "Just kidding...well kinda."

Let me know what you think! My requests are still open so send me something that you want me to write! Alright, i’m sleepy byeee🖤🖤

BNHA self insert AU

New to the AU? Start here!

Chapter 37: Oh Hell Nah~

It’s not quite move in day for Tenya, in fact it’s like a month before he can sign the new lease! But he has split his time more to spend it with Ita and mentally preparing to be the CEO’s boyfriend more openly.

“Hey, what’s this?” Tenya asked Ita as he pointed at the elaborate flower arrangement on the coffee table as he walked in the living room to join her on the couch “it’s very fancy.”

“Oh it’s my invitation to the Techies Gala” I responded without looking up from my phone “it’s one of those fancy networking events but with big names and some international faces. They’re themed and this year it’s Royal Court.”

“Are you going?” Tenya looked at the small invitation card in the middle of the arrangement “It must be a big ordeal if they sent flowers.”

“Heh I’m the only one that gets flowers” I roll my eyes “the co-director of the event’s host company has the hots for me. Every time I come around to any event, he won’t leave me alone until I have a dance with him or have a drink with him” I sigh tiredly “I have to go to maintain my image as a big name in the community. I’ve been going since I was a small fry company.”

“Can I come?”

“Why?”

“Well, I want too” he looked at her with excitement and wonderment “I want to be arm in arm with you in your prettiest gown and you introduce me as your significant other! And we’ll stand around sipping on champagne, dance and you point out your business partners to me and-”

“Okay! Okay!” I stop him and laugh “you can come, but you’ll need a suit to fit the aesthetic” I stand up and stretch “guess we gotta pay a visit to my secret designer.”

“Wait, that’s true?” he gasped at what I was saying “you have a private designer?!”

“Yeah, most luxury brands don’t carry my size gowns and when I was a no-name CEO, no designer would do a commission for me” I send a quick text to my designer “so I turned to the one person I knew would make me a gown in a pinch and at my budget at the time. And now he does all my commissions for my public appearances and my entourage” I turn to him “put on your shoes, we’re going to Taito to pay him a visit.”

We hop in my Jeep and drive 30 mins to the city, near the suburbs. We pull up to this apartment building in the nice part of town.

“Wow, this is a really clean area” Tenya commented as we parked “he lives in this building?”

“Yeah, what’s even nicer is that I don’t get recognized around here” I said as I got out of the car “this place is a retired hero heavy area, so it’s protected and confidential.” We walk up 4 flights of stairs to get to the place, I knock and a familiar face and denim vest greets us.

“AH! I’ve been expecting you two!” the tall man leans down to hug Ita “how are you darling?”

“I’m well!” I gave a firm hug “glad to see you’re in good health too!” I break the hug and gesture to Tenya “you recognize younger brother Ingenium don’t you?”

“I can recognize those eyebrows, polo shirt and capri pant wearing rectangle anywhere” roasted the tall man.

“It’s you! Best Jeanist!” Tenya was too starstruck to process the roast “this is where you retired to?!”

“After the whole Hawks thing, he stepped down to civilian to not deal with hero bullshit and focus on his number 2 passion” I explained “and that’s fashion! I’ve kept his passion under wraps so he doesn’t get swarmed with commissions.”

“Speaking of, you needed an addition to yours?” Jeanist shifted gears “getting serious are we?”

I hear a meow coming from the window “Why don’t you two get measurements done and I’ll be over here with Chiffon” I make my way to the white, long haired cat on the window sill.

The two make their way to the next room to do said measurements. “So, when should I expect the wedding commission?”

“What?” Tenya responded cluelessly.

“When are you planning to pop the question? Put a ring on it? Make her an honest woman?” Jeanist was half playing around, half serious “I know you two have been together for a while and you’re moving in soon, so what’s the wait?”

“I- um, I’m not thinking about marriage right now” Tenya gets red with embarrassment “I love her but I’m not sure when I should ask.”

“You know, the last boy didn’t marry her but had the nerve to get her pregnant then leave after almost 3 years together” he snapped his tailor’s tape to make a statement “don’t wait too long, she can’t waste her time on another one.”

“Understood” he responded to his threat “I don’t plan on dishonoring her.”

“Good! I’d hate to see another Iida go unmarried”

“Right, I forget that you and my uncles and father worked together.”

“And your brother, in all honesty, you’re all a bunch of good looking men” he writes the measurements on his client book “that ‘singles’ curse is no joke! But I trust that you’ll break that streak.”

That statement bothered Tenya for the rest of the time, it’s true that the men in his family don’t all get married or have many children to carry the family name. He can count his cousins on one hand and the reunions get smaller and smaller as the years go by. At this point, he feels introducing her into such a small family would shock her to what she’s used to. They get back to the house to get dinner started.

“Oh! I almost forgot to tell you!” she suddenly remembered “my parents are coming to stay for a few days.”

“Oh that’s wonderful news, which days?”

“From January 1st to the 5th”

“Oh that overlaps my move in.”

“I know, so plan is to move in partially after Christmas and get fully settled after they leave” she explained her plan “so that way you can have your clothes and important items here and all the heavy stuff after they leave. If that’s alright?”

“Yeah, I can do that” he thought about what things he’d have to leave behind until then “can’t wait to see your parents! Wonder if they’d let me first name them now that we’re dating.”

“Oh um, about that” I laugh nervously “I haven’t told them that we’re dating- DON’T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT TENYA!” I glanced at his offended face “it’s not that I’m embarrassed or ashamed of being your girlfriend but my parents get very emotional when I tell them I’m in a relationship, since Shinso and the whole losing the baby thing, they’ve been very adamant that I don’t get in a relationship and just focus on being successful.” I see him change expressions “but I’m sure they’ll like you! They’d remember you from last time.”

“I hope they do.”

-Fast forward to the 1st of January-

“I’m back” I call out as I enter the house “Muffin, can you take these to the guest room?” I hand over 3 suit cases then turn to my parents struggling to take off their coats and boots “estan bien?”

“Yeah, just not used to taking off our shoes” my father responded as he got one boot off “by the way, did you get a new car? That’s a very nice Cadillac.”

“Oh that’s not my car, it’s my roommate’s” I panicked and said roommate instead of boyfriend because of their reactions.

“Roommate? Why would you need a roommate?” my mother asked suspiciously as she helped my father out of his boot “es duena de la casa!”

“Si pero, soy triste and quiero compania mama” I pouted and as they finished taking off their outer wear, Tenya walks down the stairs “you remember Tenya?”

“Oh? el nino que se introducio el otra ves” my mother walked up to him “what business do you have with my daughter!”

“Oh my, right to the point” Tenya adjusts his glasses “well you see, were very good friends and we just wanted to live together because I’m a pro hero now and-”

“A hero? Professional Hero?” my father questioned “can’t be stronger than Ita, so it’s not to protect her.”

“Tenya! See I told you they remembered you!” I nudged him “Oh we’re just the best of friends and-”

“ITATI ES TU NOVIO HUH?!” my mother figured it out “OTRA VES?!”

“PORQUE TE ENOJAS?! YA SOY GRANDE Y TENGO MI COMPANIA” I got latina rage that my mother wasn’t happy that I was in a relationship “I CAN HAVE A BOYFRIEND SI QUEIRO!” I argue more with my mother in the kitchen while my father and Tenya sit and wait it out in the living room.

“So, how was the flight Mr Palma?” asked Tenya, nervous if he was going to respond coldly “Ita tells me that you came over to celebrate your birthday.”

“The flight was alright and yeah I wanted to celebrate over here” he peered over the couch to see if the two women stopped bickering “I would’ve came alone but her mother wanted to tag along too.”

“Does she like traveling?”

“Yes but she doesn’t like me traveling alone” a warm smile spreads across his face “we travel everywhere together, since we were young.”

The way her father said that warmed him. He felt the type of love Ita was raised around and it reminded him of the dynamic he has with her. As the two women calmed down and set their frustrations aside, they sat down to eat the pozole Ita prepared before she went to pick them up from the airport.

“Tambien come la comida mexicana?” the mother commented as Tenya put the usual condiments on his “pues, no es tan mal.”

Tenya gives me the ‘translate please’ look to me and I laugh a little “she said he eats mexican food too? Maybe he isn’t so bad.”

“You don’t know Spanish?” the mother gasped “I thought you might have picked up a few words.”

“I did pick up a few words but I don’t get to hear it very often as Ita doesn’t speak it very often here in Japan” he got timid “I love the food she makes, especially the seafood. All I know is when she yells at me in spanish, I’m in trouble.” The outburst of laughter coming from the 3 startled him but then he sees where she gets her laugh and scrunched laughing face from. It was a heart-warming moment for him, it gave him an idea on how family dinners were back home for them. When the parents went to bed and the dishes were clean, he waited for Ita to come to bed.

“Well minus the argument I got into with my mom” I said as I sat on the bed “I’d say that went well! They liked you once they ate.”

“Your father and I were having some nice conversation on the couch” he recalls what her father said “he reminds me of you.”

“Really? How?”

“You have his laughing face, kindness and warm smile” he looked at her flushed face “I can’t believe that man taught you all those weird things you mentioned.”

“He’s like that” I laughed and laid down on my side of the bed “well, I’m tired from all that. Tomorrow, we’re going to the temple.”

“I remember” he turned off the light and got next to her “good night love.”

-At the temple, next day-

They spent most of the morning showing the parents around and answering their questions before the mother asked for a coffee.

“I’m going to find a hot drink stand, you want anything?” I asked Tenya, who was sitting near the prayer bells with my father.

“I’ll have a tea, thanks” he watched as the two women went to find hot drinks.

“So Tenya, when are you going to marry my daughter?”

“Oh um- I-” Tenya stammered

“I see the way to look and speak to her, I’d want her to marry a man like you.”

“How so?”

“You look at her the way I look at her mother” he looked at the two women ordering the drinks from afar “her mother and I where also friends in the beginning, she saved me from certain death and got in trouble for it. I didn’t like how everyone treated her like trash just because she was smart and had a double quirk, her mother hated me. She hated me even more when I got her daughter pregnant at 15, I did the right thing and married her and stood by her side when she gave birth. I wanted to give our family the life they deserved by immigrating to America to find work. But of course she didn’t let me go by myself, we left our daughter in the care of my mother and traveled hand in hand to America. It was difficult and seemed like nothing was going right at first but seeing her working just as hard kept me going. Eventually we brought our daughter over and started the life we deserved, then she came along, then her brother.” the two women were walking back with drinks floating near them “we taught her how to love and work hard, she taught herself how to fight back and stay strong. Our pride and joy is in her” he turned to Tenya “we’d love to have you as part of our family, just don’t wait too long.”

“Here, I got you some dango too” Ita hands Tenya a stick of dango and tea. They sat as the parents were walking around with their tea, hand in hand. “Aren’t they cute?” I commented as they pointed to the mountain in the distance “can you believe they’ve been married for 32 years?!”

“32 years?” Tenya nearly choked on his tea “wow, I can’t even imagine myself 32 years from now!”

“Right?!” I laughed “I hope sometime before that, I’d be able to go home.”

“What if you have a family here by the time it comes around?”

“I’d bring them with me, my whole family is over there” I turn to him “but even if I don’t, I want to bring you along.”

“Why?”

“I don’t want to travel alone” I hold his hand and squeeze “you make me feel less lonely in the world.”

“What if you want to stay in America?”

“I won’t beg you to stay with me but that’ll all depend” I look at my parents taking pictures of the bridge “for now, I’ll wait for that day to come.”

Tenya felt less pressured to marry her now that she said all that. She wanted him around even if they weren’t in love. It didn’t seem too bad to wait things out for just a bit longer. They spent the rest of their parent’s stay traveling together and sharing meals.

“Tired?” Tenya asked Ita once they got home from the airport.

“A bit, we left super early and it’s still pretty early” I yawned as I stretched “I’m going to take a nap on the couch before I have to go to work.”

“I’ll join you” he carried her to the couch before she could protest “here, I’ll hold you as you rest” he cradled her and immediately she fell asleep nuzzled into his chest. As she rested, he really took in his surroundings. They were in a new year, in a home with his love and the house was quiet. It was nothing like he imagined it when they were teenagers but it was very realistic and just as wonderful. “I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you” he whispered “I’m not leaving, not without you.”

She got up after an hour to get ready for her agent job and left, leaving Tenya alone to move in the rest of his things. He enters the office space and sees her cluttered space, a day bed and an empty part of the room. He assumed that’s where all his things go and after settling in, some of the things on the day bed caught his attention. On the satin sheets was an oversized hoodie and her old laptop, upon unfurling the hoodie, he sees it’s an Ingenium hoodie. “This is my hero hoodie” he said as he checked the tag on the inside “limited edition at that.” The idea that she bought one at all baffled him since she wasn’t into hero culture at all. He traced the sticker clad laptop with his fingertips “I wonder if I still remember her password” he opened the laptop to see the iconic picture of the 3 friends with the bear that she tamed, he typed in what he remembered and it logged him in. The home screen background was of Mr Muffins, just like how he remembered it. Out of morbid curiosity, he pulled up her browser and flipped through her tabs. Most of them online shopping sites for her beauty, hair and snack items that aren’t sold in Japan. One tab was on hero news, he clicked on it and saw himself on the screen along with all his statistics. “She’s been catching up on me?” the search history went all the way to when he showed up on the ranking, 3 years ago. “All this time, she’s been worrying about me and seeing how I’ve been before we reunited” he felt his heart ache at all the time she sat in this bed with the hoodie on, reading about him and longing to talk to him again “Oh Ita, I wish I wasn’t so stubborn to say it sooner.” He closed the laptop and put the hoodie back how he found it. He knows that she had feelings for him since high school but knowing now what she did in those years apart made him sad but determined. Sad that neither of them could say it, Determined to always say how he feels toward her.

-Night of the Gala-

“Need help?” I chortled as Tenya struggled to straighten the shoulders of the garment.

“Please” he said in defeat “how do you guys do it? High fashion doesn’t seem hard to put on.”

“You’ll get used to it” I fix the tassels on the shoulders “We usually fix each other’s clothes and hair before heading out to the chauffeur.”

“Y’all decent?” knocked Jin on the bedroom door.

“Yuh, ready to go?”

“We need some hair spray for Mimi” Jin said as Mimi walked up into view “it’s one of those hair days.”

“Oh shit, I got you fam” I pick up some combs and hair spray to fix her hair.

Tenya watches them in the living room, working on Mimi’s hair just like when they were in high school and he walked in the intel dorms to visit Ita. Just another fond memory that hasn’t changed. Once everyone was fixed and ready, they headed to the Gala in style.

“I didn’t know you could just portal a whole limousine like that” Tenya awed at how fast they traveled from the front gate of the community to the Gala.

“I do it for safety reasons” Jin says as he checks the time “wouldn’t want stalkers or villains to know where we are” he put his phone in his suit pocket “not that it’s happened before but you can’t be too careful.”

They step out of the limo to be swarmed with cameras and interviewers like it was a red carpet event.

“You guys weren’t kidding! It’s a big deal to be here” Tenya looked around him once they entered the place “Oh my, everyone is in theme.”

Before Ita could say anything, a familiar but unwelcomed voice called out to them “WELL! If it isn’t the most gorgeous woman in Japan!” a lanky man walked up to them.

“Correction, it’s Most Powerful” Mimi stopped the man from coming any closer “what do you want weasel man?”

“Can’t I talk to my associate?”

“Newsflash flat ass, we never agreed to your contract” Jin slides in with the facts “and with the crash in your stocks recently, our eyes are set to crush your company next.”

“Yeah whatever” the man ignored Jin “you’re looking mighty fine this evening Miss CEO, will you join me for some wine and see where the night takes us.”

“She can’t” Tenya stepped in before she could say anything “she has yet to introduce me to her colleagues.”

“And you are?”

“Her date tonight” He said confidently, feeling giddy that he said it “come babe, who were you going to show me?” putting his arm around her waist to take them to the otherside of the room, flashing a mischievous look back to the lanky man.

“Babe? Excuse me Mr. Her Date Tonight” she mocked and teased once they were out of earshot “who are you?”

“I didn’t like how that guy wanted to take you away for your undivided attention” he shuddered “I got a sickly vibe from him.” He looked around the room and saw all the hushed whispers and looks everyone were flashing at them “You’re certainly drawing a lot of attention with your gown.”

“They’re looking at you too” I chuckled “I’ve never been photographed with a date, let alone arm in arm with them” I wave at some of the familiar faces “lucky you, don’t worry about messing it up, just be yourself and limit only 2 glasses of champagne.”

After some ceremony things and year in recap for the tech moguls, Ita takes Tenya to her favorite part of the place. A little ways past the courtyard, theres a large pond full of colorful fish and frogs.

“What a quaint area” Tenya said in awe “is that a platform?”

“Yeah, you can take it right up to the middle of the pond, just above the water, to see the fish better” they go on the platform a distance from the edge “see, there’s some glow ones too and my favorite one is that iridescent one.”

“How deep do you think this pond is?” he asked curiously “theres so many fish here that it can’t be waist deep.”

“Quen sabes?” I look at him “do you think this’ll be a good addition to the yard?”

“A pond?” he thought about it “the yard isn’t that big.”

“I know but I’m thinking about having a mini one with just 3 or 5 fish to swim comfortably in and have it where the lemon and Kumquat tree is” I touched the surface of the water “but who knows when I’ll have time to sit down and plan it, I have so much on my plate for this year.”

“I see, it’s hard juggling everything” the big gold koi fish poked it head up and it caught his attention “but I hope you do decide to do it, I’d love to see it and anything you put your mind into turns out amazing.”

“Oh stop it!” I blushed as I stood up “you flatter me too much.” As they leaned in for the kiss, the platform gave way and they both fell into the pond, causing a scene. They both swam to the edge and everyone came out to see what happened.

“Oh my goodness I’m so sorry Miss!” the host of the event was mortified “are you hurt?! I’ll cover the cost of your damaged gown!”

“I’m more concerned about the fish” I said wringing out my hair “I hope our fall didn’t hurt them, I was so careful to not fall in.”

“I saw who tempered with the platform controls” spoke up a female that was part of somebody’s entourage “it was that lanky man with the navy suit! I was on the balcony when it happened.”

“I’ll handle things!” the host helps her up “lets get you two dried and inside” they lead us into a door that leads to the guest room “my apologies again! Please feel free to wash up too and I’ll get your clothes cleaned.”

“It’s alright Mr. Taka!” I say to calm him “thank you for your hospitality, I think we’ll just stay here until we get our dry clothes and leave for the evening.”

“Oh but I feel awful that that man had the gull to ruin your night, like some school boy!” the host gestured toward Tenya “I didn’t even get to meet your boyfriend properly, Hi I’m Mr. Ani Taka, CEO of Kankai Electronics.”

“Oh my it’s an honor! I’m Tenya Iida, Pro Hero Ingenium of the Ingenium legacy.”

“A PRO HERO! MISS PALMA I CAN’T BELIEVE I HAD TWO BIG NAMES THAT FELL INTO MY POND!” he screamed and fan-boy’d “sorry I’m just a hero fanatic! I’ve shaken hands with your father and brother along with other heroes.”

“I thought you might react like this” I laughed and turned to Tenya “he’s one of my business partners and my supplier for touch screens and sensors.”

“I never gave up on their idea and helped them become the big name she is now” he turned to her “why don’t you get out of those wet clothes and into a robe?” he waited for her to close the door on the bathroom “So young hero, when’s the wedding?”

“You too?!” Tenya groaned “I’ve only been living with her for 2 weeks and dating for 8 months, its too soon to ask.”

“Alright BUT I want an invitation!” he huffed “just don’t wait too long.”

The rest of the night was spent in that guest room, finding out that lanky man is banned from future events and heading home pretty early. The next day, the headline on the event was ‘Robo Dog CEO and Pro Hero Ingenium Fall in Pond at the Tech Gala, CEO more concerned about the fish?’

“Really? Nothing on why Tenya was with me on the platform?” I questioned as I looked at the headline in my office “well I guess I should be thankful I was put in the positive light.”

“That spike in publicity is going to be LIT!” Beizu commented.

“Ew please don’t say ‘lit’ like that, you sound like my parents” I cringed and everyone else in the room agreed.

“Well that wasn’t very plus ultra of you guys” Beizu pouted “besides, this was a tech highlight, hero gossip shows up on the main page of anything way later or not at all. They’re heroes after all! They pay the publisher to remove gossip about them to boost their image” everyone took his word for it, he was a side-kick after all “if anything, this isn’t going to affect him much. Who reads the Tech headlines for hero news?!”

-Meanwhile, At the Todoroki Estate-

“KYAAA! SHOTO!” Fuyuumi cried out as the brothers run in from their morning work out.

“What is it?! What’s wrong Fu?” Shoto panted.

“LOOK! Palma-sama is with your friend!”

The brothers look at the headline and collectively said “So?”

“And he’s in the same un-named designer outfit!” she just confused the brothers more “it means she’s dating him! There’s no other reason why he gets a custom suit AND is arm in arm with her at the BIGGEST Gala of the year for Tech!” she squealed “I’m so happy for her!”

“Now that you mentioned it, Iida-kun moved out of his brother’s apartment at the end of the year and didn’t say where he moved to” Shoto recalled “and he was at her tech presentation in October” things finally clicked for him “it took him 3 years to finally say it! And didn’t tell anybody!?”

-In the Midoriya household-

“I can’t believe they finally said it!” sobbed Izuku and Ochako in their living room over the headline “I’m so happy for them!”

“We have to celebrate somehow!” Ochako squealed “I’ll contact the girls and you gather the boys.”

“I’m on it!” Izuku and Ochako sent a mass text to their old classmates about their discovery and celebration plans.

-Back at the house, later that evening-

“How was work?” I asked Tenya he walked in.

“It was weird today, I got a lot of attention when I went patrolling” he took off his shoes “plus my phone has been blowing up with voicemails and texts from our classmates.”

“Oh si? What did they say?” I was surprised to hear the blowing up his phone part.

“I went through the voicemails and most of it is screaming and crying, which concerned me until I heard Yuga’s” he plays Aoyama’s voice-message.

“Bonjour Dear Classmate~ I heard you’ve been hiding something from us, your relationship with your Princess! At long last you poured your heart out and she accepts you, unfortunately I am out of Japan and in France at the moment BUT I do expect a wedding invitation! Bye Bye for now!”

We both turn red and laugh “Well, so much for keeping things private” I peer over his phone “what else did they send?”

“Texts that say to call them back, screen shots of the headline, OH this threatening text from Bakugo” he pulls up the text.

I read the text “Oi, you better treat her right or else I’ll personally beat you to death, NO QUIRKS!” I laugh “that’s on brand, I miss those twinks oddly enough.”

“You have one request from Dummy-Dum to video-call, would you like to answer?” said the robo as he waddled in from the hallway.

“Kaminari? Um sure put him on the wide screen” I commanded and sat in front of the television. A buffering screen of Kaminari in his kitchen appeared “What’s poppin fam?”

“YOU! And -gasps- HIM!” Kaminari was freaking out as you can clearly see Tenya in frame of the video call “You two have been hiding your little hand holding and smoochy smoochy eh?!”

“Denki I told you I was talking to her again” Tenya said as he walked toward the couch “and you didn’t say anything about it!”

“I thought you meant like texting or emailing not fully hanging out!” Kaminari was just pacing in his kitchen “You two are putting pressure on the rest of us.”

“How?!” Tenya and I said at the same time “All we did was fall into a pond!”

“You fell in with a designer outfit that SHE made custom for you! Jiro wants me to start matching with her now” he pointed at his screen “do you know how uncool it is to have your girlfriend plan outfits?!”

“I actually don’t mind her styling me” Tenya chopped in response “she has an eye for fashion, this shirt flatters my frame better and she got me these Gucci slides house shoes.”

“It’s that attitude that’s putting pressure on us!” he groaned “I guess I’m happy you two finally made it official, just don’t out do us when you propose.”

The video call ends but the messages from old classmates kept coming in, well, except Shinso. While he knew all along, he knows he can’t say he’s happy for them until they get closure. But when?

-Chapter 37, End-

VISIT MÉXICO WITH TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET WOULD INCLUDE…

A/N: This idea was gold for Daniela and I. We wanted to make this for our tocayas Mexicanas, because it’s a cute concept and our Country has these beautiful traditions and places. Some good ideas popped at 1am. If you want this with another Handsome man, please let us know. Enjoy!

Also, if you’re more about Europe, here you have an imagine we made about road-tripping with Timmy.

4DX experience (optional) (it features a series of songs that will transport you to colorful Mexican places and landscapes) 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12

It all happens because you were feeling a little bit homesick. Timmy couldn’t keep arms crossed while seeing you like this. He takes a decision; buys plane tickets, so you’ll visit your family and country with him. [1]

As soon as you knew about this, your heart fulfilled with joy and excitement about taking him to all those places you’ve grown with. And so in your mind, lots of crazy plans began to develop.

Landing at Mexico City Airport. Smelling that characteristic air (street food and colors, somehow) brought you some good memories.

“What we do first, Cap?” asks while grabbing all the luggage and passing his arm through your neck.

What we are not doing, is the right question. You answer; with such brightness in the eyes that Timothee had never seen in you. He’s madly in love with you, and after this trip who knows; maybe he’ll find more than expected.

There were no rules established, but he knew he was completely in your hands to do whatever and visit wherever places.

After you remembered how to make your phone work on the area thanks to an Oxxo (a kind of 7-eleven), you bought the first thing you found autentic from Mexico; Coca Cola. The whole world knows Mexican Coca Cola doesn’t taste the same as in the US. [2]

What? Is this really Coca Cola?

I swear to La Virgen de Guadalupe it is. Now, let’s go. We are taking a bus to my town. We’ll come back here, don’t worry.

But before doing so, you showed him the amazing view of El Valle de Mexico. God, those mountains.

Timmy was hungry, and so were you. Trying some real Tacos outside the subway station was his first truly mexican experience.

Try these with sauce. C’mon, this one.

The red one or the green one?

Yeah, the green one. It’s less spicy.

WHAT THE F*** YOU GAVE ME?!

Teaching him how to stand on the subway. (In European countries, taking the subway is civilized, but in Mexico everybody tries to enter as soon as the door opens, so it’s really an experience to get to it and find a good sit)

I used to take this same route every saturday to visit my Aunt Angeles.

Timmy couldn’t stop being amazed of how much things he didn’t knew about you. And now he’s right there, living them in his own body.

Arriving at the Bus Station, finally. And calling your family with the surprise of being here accompanied by your boyfriend.

Your tios (uncles) are going to be so excited! Let me tell your tias (aunts), honey! At what time are you arriving?

It might take us a couple of hours, we’ve already ate.

Oh, tell that to your grandma.

So what? says Timmy

They’re so excited that you came here. But, most of them don’t speak English, honey.

What? Are you joking? I speak Italian, doll. I can handle with Spanish.

Seeing the beautiful landscape through your window. [3]

Kissing Timothée on the lips. Thank you, love.

Arriving to your hometown and being received with Mariachis and all your family. [4]

We just couldn’t resist when you said you’ve brought your boyfriend. It was our duty to show him how parties are over here.

Party? What?

Family, neighbors, friends. Basically the whole town was there to receive you.

Tamales, tacos, mole, elotes and even a piñata.

And fireworks!

How did they manage to bring up everything?

Tequila, of course.

Timothée trying some and a couple of hours later being singing La Bikina. [5]

After that beautiful night, both wake up with homemade Chilaquiles which almost make you cry and think how wonderful is being back. (Chilaquiles are known for its qualities to cure the hangover)

Spending the whole day with family, eating Pozole and Tostadas.

Teaching Timothée a couple new words in Spanish such as “enchiladas, cabrón, tejocote”

Taking him late that day to some places you used to hang around in your town.

“Here when I was 5, I fall down while eating my favorite ice cream. And it ended up all around my face. God, I remember that day cause my mom...”

Finding that old alley where you used to dance with your cousins on weekends when teenagers. And being surprised that there’s music.

Dancing under the starry night, just letting your bodies move along the rythm. [6]

Next day. Your mother agrees with your wonderful plan of taking him to visit every Mexico’s corner, and lends you the van for your long trip.

So, with lots of gasoline tanks and pure love both of you keep with your track.

Timothée and you take turns to drive. And while doing so, listening to your old CD’s with your teenage hits. [7]

Arriving to the first Pueblo Mágico (Magic Town) you’ve decided to show him; San Pedro Cholula, Puebla [8]

Second Pueblo Mágico; Huamantla, Tlaxcala.

Third Pueblo Mágico; San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. [9]

Fourth Pueblo Mágico; Xilitla, San Luis Potosí.

Hasta La Raíz [10]

Fifth Pueblo Mágico; Bacalar, Quintana Roo.

Danza folklórica

Cumbión [11]

Next Destination; Monterrey, Nuevo León.

Last Destination; Mexico City.

And this makes Timmy fall in love more with you, because you’re more than proud to show your roots and shared them with them is something that he always gonna treasure.

So, to end this trip, you will be hearing the mariachi playing Mexico Lindo and dancing with all the people around you. [12]

R76Valentines Day 2

(Ao3 Link)

Gift Giving

“I have to get him something good Ana,” Gabriel groaned as he she just rolled her eyes at his theatrics. “He always gets me something amazingly thoughtful and then I get him something that seems thoughtless by comparison,” He sighed deeply, shoulders slumped in defeat.

“You are being melodramatic Gabriel. Jack loves whatever you get him,” Ana tried to calm him down.

“That's not the point,” He nearly shouted. “For our first date he learned how to make my abuela’s pozole to remind me of home. For my birthday he rigged up a secure video call in the middle of a war zone and brought my family together so they could all sing to me and I could catch up a little bit with all of them,”

“He has given you some nice gifts yes Gabriel, but…” Reyes interrupted her before she could dismiss his concerns.

“Do I need to bring up Christmas?”

“Okay fine, maybe Jack goes a bit above and beyond with his gift giving, but you know it's not a competition,” The Egyptian woman shook her head, exasperated by his melodrama. “You can't get mad at him for giving you good gifts.”

“I'm not mad at him. I'm mad at me. I just need to get a better gift than him this once Ana and I need help, please,” Ana raised an eyebrow at that. Gabriel never begged. She let out a long, put upon sigh, he was going to go through with this.

“Fine, we only have a few weeks to figure something out then. We'll need some more information about what Jack is going to do and some help once we have a plan. We are at least go to think big if we do this.”

“Thank you,” Gabriel’s frown lessened and his shoulders relaxed slightly. They haven't managed to get a good gift ready yet, but he has backup now and he was going to show his boyfriend that he could be just as thoughtful this time.

_________________

There were two major goals of operation V-Day. The first goal was technically optional, but it would make the second much easier. They were trying to find out what it was Jack was getting Gabriel, without Gabriel himself learning so he could still be actually surprised. Second, they needed to use that information to help figure out something to get Jack that would blow his gift out of the water.

Ana was needed for this plan, if only to get to Reinhardt, something that she was not very enthused about to say the least. The only thing that Reyes had managed to learn about what Jack was planning was that the man had recruited the crusader’s help for it. The Egyptian sniper sighed, she knew she could get the information out of the man, but it didn't sit right with her, taking advantage of him like this.

She found the giant of a man in the mess hall early in the morning, working on breakfast for the team, he was always so sweet. She watched as the man dashed around the kitchen like he was born for it, it suited him more than fighting in her eyes. Though, to be fair, she didn't think very highly of fighting in general despite its necessity and her skill at it.

“Ah, hello!” Reinhardt’s voice boomed when he noticed her presence. “Great to see you this fine morning Ana,” She found herself smiling. One thing he had in common with Jack, they both had very infectious smiles.

“Looking good in that apron Rein,” She tried to tease the man, even though it was true. No one would have expected someone so large and imposing could look cute, but a soft blue apron that said kiss the cook definitely managed it.

“Thank you!” His smile only grew at the compliment. It was impossible to tease him like this, he took compliments at face value and with great ease. “What brings you here this early?”

“Getting away from our fearless leader for a minute,” She explained leading to a loud laugh from the larger man.

“Gabriel sulking around again?” Coming from anyone else that would have sounded like a joke at the man's expense, but from Reinhardt she knew that it was just the man being concerned about his friend.

“He's a bit stressed right now,” She admitted carefully whilst the German hummed in acknowledgement, it was the usual story when it came to Commander Reyes.

“He really needs to take a break once in awhile huh?”

“I'm just glad Valentine's Day is coming up,” She mentioned, trying to make it sound off handed.

“Oh?” The cook was suddenly interested. She was going to have to make it up to him later somehow.

“Yeah, if anything can cheer the man up it's a big gift from Jack,” She replied.

Reinhardt nodded his head until he caught her staring at his apron as if she had just noticed it for the first time, then he vigorously turned back to his cooking. His apron really was the perfect cover for what she was going to do, because as he leaned over to pick up a container of something or another, she leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. He turned beat red, it was adorable.

“Your apron was very demanding,”

“It's an old joke,” Reinhardt stammered an answer back. Oh she was really going to have to make this up to him, and also probably get back at Gabriel once this whole thing was over.

“Oh, I'm not much of one for old humor, sorry,” Her soft smile and apology only made him flush brighter. “I just hope Jack is getting the man something good enough to get that stick out of Gabe's ass. Can't imagine what would pull that off,”

“Oh Gabriel is going to love it,” Reinhardt blurted out, like he always did when he was flustered. “You'll never guess what I helped him get,” That was perfect.

“Oh really?” Ana asked, knowing she was getting exactly what she wanted out of the man.

______________________________

“So what has our brain trust come up with so far?” She asked Gabriel as he moped around the gym.

“Fucking nothing. Please tell me you have good news,” His mood had gotten worse.

“Well I do know what he's planning for you, if that's what you’re asking,” She smirked at the man as he waited to hear what she had to say now. “You are going to have to make it up to Reinhardt big time by the way,”

“I know,” Gabriel agrees, his eyes intense. “But I'm desperate, I have to outdo Jack this time. I just have to.”

“Well we have our work cut out for us. It's not quite Christmas party level but, you are going to looove it,” She elongates the o for emphasis.

“Well if anyone of us comes up with a good idea we'll make sure to run it by you,” He sighed, his shoulders slumped.

“You know him better than any of us Gabe. Just think about the things that he wants, particularly because he can't or won't do it himself. His gifts come from the heart, yours should too,” She patted his shoulder in sympathy as she left the man to think.

____________________________________

Six days before Valentine's Day and Gabriel believed he had the perfect idea. It was thoughtful, it harkened back to their days in the SEP, when they talked for hours to deal with the injections that had turned them both into super soldiers. Jack had mentioned that there was something he had always wanted to do, since he was a child and he never got the opportunity.

Setting it up would be difficult, they would need to take a few days of leave together, not that they actually got leave, and also avoid people's notice. That is what he had his brain trust for though. Ana could handle command while they were away easily, people already listened to her so Having her in charge would merely be a lateral move.

Commandeering transportation would be easy, he was more or less in charge of everything after all. They just needed people to cover for them while they were out and a story just in case things get out of hand. Luckily they were already in the states for this, so it wasn't too far away. It would be a day long break.

They needed some civilian clothing and some simple disguises just in case. It was honestly like running any op he had ever done. False identities for booking the hotel, private transportation that wouldn't cause a scene, Making sure nobody who would care too much even noticed anything was going on.

Ana approved of the idea when he explained to her what it would mean, also the idea of a vacation for their overworked commander was an easy sell. They made preparations for her to handle things for a time, made sure a few people who would need to know did know. He just needed to get Jack to go along with the plan

Before he knew it, the day had arrived. They were mostly prepared, he was just going to need Jack’s cooperation in order to make sure Ana would be ready. That needed to wait until after the exchange though. Gabriel was nervous, he could run black ops laughing at death, but giving gifts to his boyfriend terrified him for some reason. He couldn't help but worry about Jack not likening it.

They had set up a dinner date, something that no one at the UN seemed to respect. Gabriel was seriously considering perfectly justifiable homicide when Jack had informed him that he had handled it and not to worry. Those assholes couldn't just give them a few hours together on Valentine's Day without giving the commander shit about it.

They ate together, spending recreational time together for the first time in almost a year outside of the group parties they had for a few holidays throughout the year. Those times weren't intimate though, a quiet, private dinner for two, that was intimate.

They ate while sharing small talk, Gabriel had a hard time paying attention to it. He wondered what Jack had gotten him, desperately hoping that just this once he could be the more thoughtful boyfriend and gift giver. He had never been very good at the grand gestures of love sort of thing; he was always more comfortable with small gestures and soft words.

“We should probably exchange gifts before were interrupted by people who can't let two war heroes have an evening of peace,” He was being blunt, but he wanted to get this over with, his nerves were getting the better of him. Jack laughed softly.

“I was about five minutes away from burning the HQ to the ground myself,” Jack added. “You should have seen it Gabe, I spoke very politely in my commanding voice, instead of my nice voice and they were damn near shitting bricks,” They shared a laugh at the image. “They quickly forgot what was so important and are coming back later, probably thought I was this close to murdering them,”

“I didn't think you had it in you,” Jack frowned, Gabriel laughed.

“Well it was either that or let you and Ana kill them. This was a little less paperwork so,” Jack just shrugged at the thought. “So you want to see what I got you?” The blond asked with a smile. He nodded in response and Jack pulled a small box from out of his jacket. “So you remember our time in Germany?” Gabriel nodded again, slowly beginning to unwrap the box, Jack had gotten wrapping paper for this. “You were upset that you lost your favorite beanie during the campaign,”

Gabriel opened the package to find an old beanie, from what it sounds like, his old beanie. It was washed and it showed signs of relatively unskilled attempts at mending what would likely have been several holes or tears. He had lost this several months ago near Eichenwald. He remembered being upset and talking to Jack about it because his grandmother made that one for him, it was yet another memento that brought him a little close to his home that was always so far away.

“Reinhardt called up some of the other Crusaders and they found it in the ruins of the castle. Then I washed it and learned how to mend it, it's a lot harder than I thought it would be,” The blond man was nervous as Gabriel simply stared at the gift. “I'm sorry about the patch job. I tried my best but,”

“It's wonderful Jack,” He hugged the beanie to his chest, then put it on right there. It was now special because it was a gift from his grandmother and from Jack. “I'm never taking it off,” Gabriel smiled brightly, a rare thing indeed. Even Jack had a hard time pulling a big smile out of the man, but it was an amazingly thoughtful gift, as always. “I got you something too ,” Gabriel handed over what looked to be a mission folder.

Jack arched an eyebrow but opened the folder to briefly peruse its contents. There were fake ids for the two of them, an itinerary, a cover story in case things went wrong, everything they would need to sneak away for a few days without anyone noticing.

“What is this Gabi?” Jack was definitely confused by what he was looking at.

“Well, do you remember back when the injections made us feel like we were dying and we would spend all night talking to each other about our homes to try to distract ourselves?” Jack nodded and Gabriel continued. “So I don't remember everything, what with the dying, but I do remember you saying several that you had always wanted to go to Disney world as a kid and were going to actually go one day.” Jack pulled out the actual tickets that were in there for the two of them to go and he looked at them stunned.

“We can't go,” He said suddenly, after an extended pause.

“Yes we can, it's already taken care of. Ana will handle command while everyone runs interference. We will be gonna day and a half, enough time to spend one worry free day doing something you will love. No one will notice, but even if they do we have more than one backup plan,”

“What if something happens?”

“Jack, you're always trying to get me to take a break, to relax and right now I'm trying to take you on a mini vacation and you're telling me no,” Gabriel pouted and he saw Jack's resistance beginning to crack at that. “We've literally got it all planned out. We will leave after a big meeting in 3 days. We will take a jet, arrive to check into a hotel. We head to the theme park first thing in the morning and have a great civilian time just like you always wanted,”

“You're sure you're okay with this Gabe?” Jack was clearly nervous about going awol for a bit, but Gabriel just smile.

“Let me do something for you Jackie. I'll even wear my new beanie,” Jack smiled, leaping out of his chair, embracing Gabriel in a tight hug. Once the blonde had ,add it passed his reluctance, those blue eyes shone brighter than he ever remembered seeing them. The sight made his spirit soar.

“This is a wonderful gift Gabi,” Gabriel smiled brighter than Morrison in that singular moment. He's not sure who exactly won the gift exchange right then and there, but at the very least he put in a good showing for once.
