[They're both trying this out, and hoping that it'll work. There are a few hero partners that date, but by and large these things tended not to work out.
But they've managed to overcome the odds on plenty of things, which is part of why Izuku's dedicated himself to this.]
There you are. I missed you.
[Please, it hasn't even been that long.
He finally ends the call once Shouto's in the room.
He's been put into a bed and has a few wires sticking out of him- but at this point it's almost normal. His legs however, are still slowly recovering from being frostbitten and there's a big note that says "DON'T LET HIM WALK" on the side table.]
[ If they can take down villains that are hellbent on destroying the world, and specifically target them on a regular basis, then, well. A relationship is something that they should be able to fight for, especially one like theirs. Scary as the idea of it is sometimes, but that's true of most anything in their lives.
So it's easy for Shouto to mimic him - realizing he needs to hang up - as he comes into the room proper, looking at the side table and snorting out a bit of amused steam. ]
I missed you, too. [ Even if it hasn't bee that long, they both mean it. And Shouto cements it by leaning in to kiss him in greeting, artfully dodging wires. ]
[Almost all the hospitals in the city know what he's like. They know exactly how likely he is to just get up and go towards whatever danger is around, no matter how injured he is. So they put those signs there to make sure nobody attempts to enable him.
He smiles and kisses back. He'd wrap an arm around him if he wasn't afraid of jostling the wires too much.]
[ Assessing where all of the wires are when he pulls back, Shouto eventually finds a safe spot to sit on the edge of the bed, where there won't be any accidents brought on by either of them moving. He also makes sure to nudge at the sign so that it's facing the both of them, as if ensuring that the reminder will be right smack dab in front of Izuku. For his own good. ]
It's fine. There's a reason we don't have itineraries for date night like Iida does. [ Someday, he will learn not to do that to himself. ] So long as we're okay, I'm always up for rescheduling.
[He looks at the sign and at Shouto a bit nervously. Yes, his boyfriend definitely knows him very well.]
I'm not going anywhere... [For now. Just as long as he doesn't hear about any other villain attacks.]
Ah, yeah. I'm not sure Iida-kun's actually managed to get through an entire one of those. [They always seemed to get interrupted by this or that.] I'll be fine in a couple of days, from what I heard.
[ He looks back at him calmly, the twitch of an eyebrow and a soft mm the only thing he offers to that. Yeah, he sure does. Hope you weren't even thinking about it beforehand, Izuku.
Shouto does shake his head at Iida instead of his boyfriend, though, bemused and amused alike. ] I don't think he has, either. But with us, it's not a problem to play it by ear.
[ He has to turn to look at his legs properly, scrutinizing. ] ... they know what they're doing with frostbite victims at least.

It's pretty nice like that, huh? I like our dates. [Even if they're occasionally interrupted by a villain or two.]
Of course they do, Todoroki-kun, it's a hospital. They have to deal with all sorts of things.
