Chapter 22 - Himiko Toga

Both Izuku and Toga were out of breadth as they wiped the sweat off their body with a towel the training room provided.

When he examined the claymore in his hands, he noticed several slash marks on its silver body. It was a testament to its and the dagger's strengths that, while there were marks, they were free of chips and dents.

"I really want to test this on Ryuku's body now," Izuku said, intrigued by how powerful his current weapon is. It would be incredible if it could damage a mythical creature, a dragon's scale.

Toga crawled up to Izuku's neck, grasping his T-shirt as she climbed. "Can I have a drink now?" Her eyes were tired, but there was a glimmer of excitement in them.

Izuku patted her on the head and left his neck exposed. After their second meeting, he had grown accustomed to Toga's blood fanaticism and no longer found it strange.

After a bit of thought, he found that blood obsession was relatively mild in comparison to mutants' animalistic preferences. He knew it was their quirk that affected their attraction, but so was Toga's.

It was just the way that Toga acquired the blood that is the problem. Given that he essentially had infinite blood, Izuku simply lets her feed on him as much as she wants. Though, he usually added a caveat so she'll do whatever he wants her to. A simple trade, really.

While Toga was drinking her fill, munching, and occasionally licking Izuku's neck and face in his blood to satiate her perviness, Izuku checked his phone to see what was going on in the world.

"All might, All might, Hawks, All might…Does he ever take a break?" Izuku thought. He knew All Might took his job as the symbol of peace seriously but this is just absurd. "Have you ever met All-Might, Toga?"

"Not while he's chasing me," Toga said

"He rescued me once you know. When I was quirkless,"

Toga looked surprised when she heard him, "You were quirkless Izuku?"

"Yeah. If I didn't awaken my quirk, we probably would've never met," Izuku said, causing Toga to ponder on his words and said, "That doesn't sound nice at all,"

"Does it? I probably would've just lived a peaceful life without someone sucking my blood every other day. That sounds good enough," Izuku joked, which was immediately countered by a bite in his neck from Toga.

"How could you abandon me like that?!" she exclaimed, her voice irritated as she sucked even harder.

Izuku laughed at her antics and gently patted her head to calm her down. He enjoys giving head pats because it reminds him of the times when he and Lin were happy alone, together.

"I'm just joking you know,"

"You suck then,"

"Says you," Izuku laughed, "But, coming back to All Might, I wonder how I can repay him. I don't like owing anyone anything,"

"Be a hero or something. I'm sure All Might would love to see someone influenced by his peace," Toga said half-heartedly.

"I am becoming a hero. Why do you think I've been training this whole time?"

"Eeeh?!" Toga screamed. She even stopped sucking his neck as she stared dumbfoundedly at his serious face. "Are you serious? I love you Izuku, since you love my blood thingy, but I don't think you're cut out to be a hero because...you know."

"Love is a strong word," Izuku immediately denied his 'affection' for Toga's quirky nature and continued, "But yes, just because I'm slightly more tolerant of some morally and legally wrong deeds doesn't mean I can't still be a hero,"

Toga suddenly turned silent. He let her torture a man for god's sake, so she had expected Izuku to follow her path and roam around the world freely, together, without any restrictions or rules tying them down.

She honestly didn't know how to react to this information. If and when Izuku became a hero, what would she do? They couldn't possibly maintain their current lifestyle but she didn't want it to change. Everything was all perfect, and yet…What could she do?

Izuku looked at the silent Toga and slightly laughed after seeing her solemn expression. Typically, she displayed either a flushed and ecstatic expression or a mad and violent one. It was the first time He'd seen her so solemn.

"Even if I turn to the other side, I won't abandon you, you know," Izuku said. He hugged her thin waist and pulled her in closer into his arms.

"But," Toga looked up at him, "What do I do then? I don't want to be a hero,"

Izuku showed a confused look, "Who asked you to be one?"

"How will we meet then?"

"Same as usual, every other day after school,"

"Won't it be a problem if they know I'm with you?"

"You're a shapeshifter. If you somehow get caught, I can only blame myself for trusting a dumbass,"

Toga didn't appreciate his comment and munched on Izuku's neck once more, this time, much harder. He flinched from the pain, but still, let her be. Slowly, he felt Toga calming down as she licked his wound as if she was a cat, and heard her say, "What do I do then?"

Izuku shrugged, "I don't know. Find it yourself." He said.

He really couldn't care less if Toga returned to her murder days. As long as she doesn't implicate him, it's all fine and dandy. He was just there to be her safety net.

He then couldn't help but say, "No matter what, just remember that I'm here for you if you ever feel like the world is shit okay? At least by then, the world won't feel as shit, right?"

"…"

Toga couldn't say anything as she heard his words. It was true, that was all she wanted, someone to come back to. She didn't care whether he became a hero or a villain. As long as he was there for her, as long as he didn't force her to change into something she despises, it will all be right.

It was when she was with him that she could fully express herself. That she could fully embrace her love for blood and he wouldn't even flinch. He wouldn't judge. Instead, he would accept her for who she is and tolerate her antics.

Toga didn't really know what this feeling was. It wasn't like anything she had ever felt before, even for blood. She liked blood, especially Izuku's and was even willing to give her body for it, but for the first time, she felt like she was thirsty for something more than that. She craved more of him.

Toga stood her upper body up on his lap. Her head was now a few cm higher than his as she looked down at his bloodied face.

She couldn't help but slowly lick his face and neck clean off of the blood she smeared. It tasted much better than usual, but it still couldn't satisfy her thirst.

Toga pulled away from his cheeks and stared at his dark green eyes. Even now, after doing what society would find as dirty or scary, he was still so calm. He still looked at her in a positive light.

"Izuku…can I…" Toga softly whispered, afraid of being rejected. She knew Izuku was always put off by her whenever she acted dirty, but she really couldn't control herself right now.

"If you do this, I won't let you have my blood for a week," Izuku said, trying to tempt her away. He wanted to see whether she really desired this or was it simply curiosity.

Before Izuku could finish his thoughts, he felt Toga diving her body into his as his lips were slowly devoured by her. He felt her rush, trying to reach and grasp every inch of his mouth. It wasn't like Izuku had set a time limit on it but Toga somehow felt urgency, as if this moment would escape her reach if she slowed down.

Izuku smiled wryly at Toga's rather awkward attempt at deep kissing. He didn't mind and let her do whatever she wanted to try, following her every whims as he enjoys each of her clumsy actions.

After a few moments, Toga lifted her head back up. Her breathing was a mess as she gazed deep into Izuku's eyes.

"Do you want me to take the lead next?" Izuku laughed and asked after seeing Toga's real blush for the first time. He never knew her usual permanent blush could turn even more red.

Seeing her nod, Izuku put his hands on her waist and reached up for her lips. He didn't know whether Toga liked to be on top or not but since this was the position she chose, he would follow it for now.

Izuku connected their lips together as she enjoyed the gentle tap. Toga let him take the lead as she felt several more soft kisses on her lips before he finally went in. She felt her mouth being forcefully open by his tongue as he greedily searched for hers and intertwined them both together.

Compared to her rather tame and innocent attempt, she felt Izuku's to be much more sexual and fulfilling. He went through every nook and cranny of her mouth, covering every taste bud of hers with his flavor until she couldn't taste anything but him.

Her mind almost went blank as she felt him sucking on her tongue as if she was a lollipop. She couldn't muster any thought other than amazing until finally Izuku stopped his rampage and let her go.

A string of saliva trailed in between their moist lips. Toga didn't know whether it was just her, but she looked at his eyes and saw it was filled with love. Love for her, and only her.

She instinctively sucked their mixed saliva in, worried that their proof of love was going to be lost in the cruel outside world.

Izuku smirked when he saw Toga's aloof and blushing face. "You're extra cute today Toga," he said, planting one last kiss on the girl's forehead before pulling her back into his chest, embracing her lovingly.

"That's enough for today, okay?"

"Mnn…" Toga hummed, returning his hug back before she snuggled even deeper into him as they enjoyed this little moment they found within each other together.

~~~~~

(A/N: I like Toga a lot, if you couldn't already tell.

Also, I wanted to add Izuku's monologue of him thinking this was enough reeling to completely control Toga, but I don't see anywhere to put it so it is what it is :)
