krdk where they're roommates with pining Eijirou who is too scared to ask Izuku out because he's afraid it'd ruin their friendship if Izuku ended up rejecting him.

"Can you help me pick an outfit for my date?" Izuku asked him one day.

Eijirou was in shambles.
But being the good friend, Eijirou pulled himself together and smiled a little too wide. "Sure thing!"

"Thank you!"

"So, when's the date?" Eijirou tried to sound nonchalant.

"This Friday. 4.00pm. At my favorite coffee shop."

"Cool!" Eijirou cheered. He felt like crying.
They spent the next (excruciating) hour mixing and matching to get the perfect outfit for Izuku's date. The greenette would change outfits and ask fo Eijirou's opinion.

'You look nice in everything', Eijirou almost said out loud. He just gave thumbs up most of the time.
Finally, they chose a white turtleneck, light green cardigan and a pair of light blue jeans

"Thank you, Kirishima. I hope my date will like my outfit."

"He'd be a fool if he doesn't." The words came out before Eijirou can stop himself. "Just kidding." He laughed. It hurt.

Days passed and it's finally the day of Izuku's date, not that Eijirou was counting or something.

Izuku made a final touch on his hair and turned to Eijirou. "Do I look okay?"

Eijirou almost got drunk from the way Izuku glowed. "Your date have no idea how lucky they are."
"You always say the nicest things to me."

"Only because it's the truth."

Izuku gave a grateful smile. He looked at his watch. "I need to go now. See you later!"

"Good luck!" Eijirou yelled as Izuku exited their room. He wished his chest would stop hurting but it didn't.
Eijirou stared at the ceiling, thinking about all the what ifs. What if he wasn't such a coward? What if he confessed to Izuku? What if he wasn't so afraid to go after his happiness?

Eijirou covered his eyes with his arm.

What if he's the one on the date with Izuku right now?
Eijirou's self-pity party ended when a message notification rang. He lazily grabbed his phone, only for his eyes to go wide. "Midoriya."

[Midoriya]
Can I ask you a favor?

'Sure. Wassup?' Eijirou replied.

[Midoriya]
Can you come here now?

And Eijirou bolted right away.
Eijirou sat across the greenette's table when he reached there. "Are you okay?" Concern in his voice.

Izuku nodded. "Yeah."

Eijirou looked at his watch. It's 4.00pm. "Where's your date? Are they running late? Wait. Did they stood you up?" Eijirou narrowed his eyes.
"Actually.. He's here." Izuku turned bright red. "Right on the dot."

"Where?" Eijirou tilted his head.

"Er.. I-I'll text him." Izuku typed on his phone and sent the message.

Eijirou's phone pinged. A message. He read it and he almost dropped his phone.

[Midoriya]
It's you.
