The first time you say 'I love you' isn't always dramatically in the rain, in fact, that almost only happens in the movies. Sure there can be a few exceptions, but you usually say it after your partner does something quirky, and you know you want to keep that person in your life for as long as you possibly can.

There are many ways an 'I love you' can slip out, but here are a few wholesome tales of couples saying 'I love you' for the first time.

Kirishima and Bakugou had already been dating for a few months by the time Valentine's Day rolled around, and the couple decided they wanted to be rebellious and just stay in watching movies. Bakugou was in charge of food while Kirishima was in charge of movie selection and he was very careful about what he picked after Bakugou had said, 'You better not pick shitty ass movies, Shitty Hair.'

The pair sat on Kirishima's bed clad in their comfiest pajamas, which for Bakugou was no shirt and a pair of black sweatpants while Kirishima wore Bakugou's black sweatshirt with the skull printed on the chest paired with the pink flannel pants Ashido had given him for his birthday. A warm, fuzzy blanket was wrapped around their shoulders and Bakugou's laptop sat on their touching thighs playing Deadpool.

Kirishima snuggled closer to Bakugou's side, which prompted the blonde to sling his arm around the redhead's shoulder, as he brought another bite of his chicken lo mein noodles to his mouth.

The couple watched as Deadpool skewered his katanas through a nameless villain and started his inner monologue. Kirishima giggled quietly and Bakugou tried reciting the line to make his boyfriend laugh again.

"I know what you're thinking, 'My boyfriend said this was a superhero movie, but that guy in the red suit just turned that other guy into a fucking kabob!" Bakugou smiled slightly as Kirishima laughed with a snort.

"Oh my god, you're such a dork," Kirishima smacks Bakugou's chest lightly, still giggling. "I love you."

Bakugou's eyes widen minutely before smirking. "What did you just say, Shitty Hair?"

Kirishima's mouth runs dry as his eyes widen considerably in panic. "Oh, um, you don't have to say it back or anything, but-"

Bakugou cuts off Kirishima's incessant rambling by pressing a rough kiss to his boyfriend's lips. He holds the back of Kirishima's neck with one hand and his hip in the other. Kirishima whines as Bakugou pulls away.

"Shut up, Eijirou." Kirishima eyes his boyfriend with his eyebrows knitted together. "I love you too, doofus."

"Yay," Kirishima says breathily.

Bakugou leans in for another kiss, Chinese food and movie forgotten.

Todoroki hasn't always been good at expressing his emotions until Midoriya came along with a sledgehammer and shattered his carefully built barriers making him feel emotions he hadn't felt in years.

Todoroki was grateful and admired the short green haired boy for helping him it of his shell. But it didn't take long for that admiration to blossom into feelings of fondness that left the bicolored boy's chest warm and fuzzy.

It had taken most of his courage to admit he liked Midoriya and ask him out, but when Midoriya had said he liked him too the warm fuzzy feeling in his chest intensified to the point where he wasn't sure if his left side was malfunctioning or not.

Now the couple had been dating for five months and Todoroki was spending Christmas with the Midoriya household. It was only two days into Christmas break, yet Todoroki was sure he wanted to spend all his Christmases to come with Midoriya and his family.

On the third night, Midoriya had a hankering for cookies so he decided to force Todoroki into making Christmas cookies with him. But Todoroki could care less what they were doing as long as he was doing it with Midoriya.

So far, Todoroki in terms wasn't helping much whereas he was clinging to Midoriya like a koala bear. At the moment he stood behind Midoriya with his arms wrapped around the green haired boy's waist and his head resting on his shoulder.

"Come on, Shouto, help me." Midoriya giggled as Todoroki pressed lazy open-mouthed kisses on the side of his neck.

"But I like kissing you." Todoroki pressed a chaste kiss to his boyfriend's shoulder.

"The faster we finish this we can do more than just kissing." Midoriya looked at Todoroki with a suggestive gaze that motivated the bicolored boy to help.

Midoriya crouched down and pulled a light blue plastic mixing bowl from under the sink and placed it on the counter before asking, "Can you measure out two cups of flower, Shouto?"

Todoroki hums as he grabs the white plastic measuring cup Midoriya hands him without looking at the taller male. He opens the container of flour and as he pulls up a scoop some flour flys up and hits Todoroki in the face. He tightly closed as the light dusting of flour settles on his face.

Midoriya chortles at his boyfriend's expression but he's quickly interrupted by a cloud of flour hitting him directly in the face. He coughs out a puff of flour and opens his eyes to Todoroki smiling smugly at him.

"Oh, you've done it now." Midoriya dives for the flour with a fire in his eyes and grabs a handful to throw at the bicolored boy.

He hits his target and the result is the beginning of a full on flour war between the couple. It's unclear who the victor is as the two boys stand in the center of a flour war zone laughing.

Midoriya falls against the counter as he blows a piece of his flour coated forest green hair out of his face. He turns to look at his boyfriend's hunched over form, arms clutching at his stomach.

Todoroki's laughter is soft and reminds Midoriya of glazed honey. Sweet and pretty. He straightens and looks down at Midoriya with adoring eyes and an even fonder smile.

"I love you."

Midoriya's eyes widen as a blush rises to his cheeks and the tips of his ears. Todoroki's face drops at the lack of verbal response from Midoriya and goes to apologize, but Midoriya is quick to snap out of his daze.

"I love you!"

Todoroki's smile returns seeing his boyfriend's embarrassed attempt to return the statement. "Good."

Todoroki encircles his arms around Midoriya and leans down to capture his lips in a kiss that tastes just a little bit like flour.

Somewhere in the time class 1-A had started living in the dorms Jirou had somehow adopted the chore to wash the dishes every night after the class ate dinner together. Maybe it was because she got to turn off all the lights beside one and listen to old love songs playing on the radio. Or maybe it was because her girlfriend would always distract her from actually finishing the dishes.

Yaoyorozu came up behind Jirou and wrapped her arms around the smaller girl's waist and pressed a soft kiss to the side of her neck. This continued for a whole of two minutes before Yaoyorozu started physically pulling her girlfriend away from the sink.

Jirou whined as she quickly reached out and shut off the faucet before it was out of reach, the song becoming clearer without the sound of running water drowning it out. Jirou turned in Yaoyorozu's hold and gave her girlfriend a half hearted glare with no real malice behind it. Her arms snaked up to wrap around the taller girl's neck.

"You're a real pest, you know that right?" Jirou sighs softly as she rests her head on Yaoyorozu's shoulder.

"Oh, I know." Yaoyorozu tilts her head up as if recalling a memory. "Shouto tells me enough when I start teasing him about him and Midoriya."

"They are pretty cute together though, huh?" Jirou closed her eyes as they swayed to the faint melody of the song.

"Yeah, but not as cute as us." Yaoyorozu lays her head on top of Jirou's, inhaling the citrusy scent of her shampoo.

"Obviously." With that, the couple is lulled into a comfortable silence as they bask in each other's warmth.

They continue to sway even after the song has changed to one with a slightly faster tempo but they didn't care about the song whereas they cared about being close to the other.

Jirou untucked her head from under Yaoyorozu's and looked into her steely gray eyes dreamily, a dopey smile on her face. "I love you."

Yaoyorozu's lips stretched up into a grin as she began to pepper kisses on Jirou's face muttering, "I love you too."

Jirou laughed as she tried pushing her girlfriend away to give her a proper kiss.

If Uraraka hadn't already thought her girlfriend was beautiful she certainly did now.

Asui laid on top of her, features illuminated by the soft glow of the thousands of fireflies flying around them. With the lights reflecting off her black eyes it looked as if the stars were housed in them.

Uraraka's mouth parted slightly as she raised a hand to trace a line down the side of her girlfriend's face, eyes following the movement of her finger. She ran the pad of her finger over Asui's bottom lip and pulled it down for a second before releasing it.

Uraraka wants to tell Asui that she looks like a fallen angel laying with her there in the dark but she's so distracted by Asui she instead mumbles, "Yer pretty." 

A croaky laugh slips past Asui's lips at the brunette's obvious dumbstruck words. "So are you, Kero."

Uraraka gently cups Asui's face, avoiding the use of her pinkies as to not make her girlfriend float and ruin the delicately crafted mood. She pulls Asui down and pecks her lips a few times before pulling back to stare into those beautiful round eyes.

"I love you, Tsuyu." Uraraka whispers, heart beating in her throat.

"I love you, Ochako." Asui laughs and wraps her free arm that wasn't holding her head up around Uraraka's back.

Uraraka fully wraps her arms around Asui's neck as she steals her breath with a kiss.

Tetsutetsu could never fully understand what was happening around him when he was with Kaminari. He didn't even realize the stars were starting to show themselves because he was looking at the blonde.

Kaminari himself was looking down at the courtyard where his friends were laughing and running around with sparklers. He laughed when he heard Iida start scolding Ashido and Sero for their unsafe behavior.

After the small ordeal, Kaminari felt a small drop of rain slide down his cheek followed by more until it was raining hard, ruining the perfectly peaceful night. He heard the surprised squeals of his classmates below him as he turned to his boyfriend.

Right as Kaminari said, "Want to get out of here?" Tetsutetsu said, "I'm in love with you."

Kaminari giggled, "Oh, I've been in love with you for a long time."

With that Tetsutetsu surged forward and pulled Kaminari into a kiss filled with fervor and promise. He pulled away and stared down at Kaminari's soaked person and wondered how he got so lucky to fall in love with this man.

"Now let's get inside before we freeze to death."Kaminari pulled his boyfriend into the warmth of his dorm room.
