Lies of him

Nighttime call

Todoroki had fallen asleep in the middle of the movie. Izuku wasn't very surprised, Todoroki seemed to always be sleeping in the dorms. On the couch, on the bus, in the kitchen, he could fall asleep anywhere. Izuku on the other hand rarely fell asleep quickly.

The movie had just ended and Izuku needed to get ready for bed. He looked down at his uniform, he would need to borrow some pajamas from Todoroki. Though he doubts that Todoroki would have any in his size.

Izuku looked down at the sleeping Todoroki, he looked really comfortable. It was a little late, almost 10:30, and Izuku wasn't sure how late Todoroki usually stayed up. Izuku tentatively poked Todoroki's cold cheek. He watched as Todoroki woke up quickly and groggily looked up to Izuku. He must've been a light sleeper.

"What is it Midoriya?", Todoroki asked him in a deep voice. Izuku felt his cheeks get warm involuntarily.

"Uh- sorry to wake you, but do have any spare pajamas I could wear?" Izuku asked.

Todoroki sat up, his hair slightly puffy and mixed at the part. He rubbed his eyes cutely and got up.

"I'm not sure if my pajama pants will fit you", He said as he opened his dresser and started shifting through the clothes.

"It's okay, I'm fine with just a shirt and boxers", Izuku blushed again. It would be a little embarrassing, but luckily Izuku had boxers on instead of briefs. Briefs would've been even worse.

Todoroki passed him a shirt and a pair of pajama bottoms, "Try those on and see if they work, I'll be in the bathroom,"

Todoroki left and Izuku unfolded the pants. They looked huge. Todoroki was a good four inches taller than him and despite all of the muscle mass Izuku had been putting on he still wasn't as large as Todoroki.

He folded the pants and put them on the top of the dresser. The shirt was also pretty big but it would have to work. He took off his uniform and folded it, also placing it on the dresser, and put on the plain light blue shirt. It draped over him and ended around his mid-thigh. He sighed, oh well.

Izuku walked out to the bathroom and knocked on the door.

"Todoroki?", he called.

"Come in Midoriya.", he heard from the other side.

Midoriya opened the door to find Todoroki on the other side with a toothbrush in his hand.

"I guess the pants didn't fit", he commented as he loaded up the blue toothbrush and started brushing, his ears turning red. Weird.

"Yeah, it's fine though. Do you have any spare toothbrushes I could use?"Izuku asked, he would like to brush his teeth.

"Yeah, just give me a moment," Todoroki looked around and produced one from the cabinet, it was still in its container and was the same color and type as Todoroki's.

"Thanks"

By the time both of them had finished and gotten into bed, it was nearly 11:30. Todoroki seemed to fall asleep as soon as his head had hit the pillow. Izuku on the other hand stayed awake. His mind buzzing with thoughts and memories.

He needed to call his mom. He looked around in the dark for his phone and found it beside the futon. He cringed at the cracks that webbed the side.

Izuku stared at the screen, working up his courage. It was around 1 and he doubted his mom was still awake.

Stealing himself, Izuku pressed the call button and held his breath as he heard it ring.

"Izuku!", yelled his mother in a tired and raspy voice.

Enji knew he had a bad relationship with his children, especially Shouto. That didn't mean he didn't worry and care for them

He'd started doing it long ago, just to make sure Shouto was asleep. He did it for all of his kids, though now that most of them were adults he only did it for Shouto.

He was often plagued with dreams from his years as a hero and woke up at some point in the night anyway. So, when he woke up around 1 am he got up and went to check on Shouto.

He would usually come in and gently move his hair out of his face and kiss his forehead then leave, but that Midoriya kid was there and he could wake up.

He made his way to Shouto's room, walking as quietly as he could with light footsteps. Shouto's door was cracked open and Enji could see a small light coming from the door. He peeked through the door to see Midoriya awake.

He wasn't on the futon beside Shouto's, instead he was sitting in the middle of the room by his backpack. The boy seemed to be on his phone, talking in hushed tones to someone rapidly.

It was so quiet, but Enji could just barely make out his voice, "... Why is he here?.... I'm not coming home till he's gone....", Suddenly there was a gasp and when Midoriya talked again it was tighter and shaky, "But- but I don't want to see him ever, can't he just leave me alone. Thi- This is all because of my qui-quirk isn't it!"

Midoriya seemed to be getting louder. Enji didn't know the boy, and he didn't particularly like that he was friends with his son. But, as he heard the boy's voice crack he couldn't help but feel a sense of worry.

It seemed that from what Midoriya was saying he didn't come here to work on some school project, but to avoid someone.

".... Mom, h-he can't do that please, I'll- I'll run away. I will'', Enji's eyes widened, the child's mother on the other line must have said something because the call ended soon, "I love you, bye"

Enji watched as the boy stood up, silent sobs raking through his body. He was wearing one of Shouto's extra pajama shirts but no pants, probably because none of them would fit him. The shirt itself seemed to nearly reach his knees.

The boy walked over to his futon and sat down abruptly, waking Shouto in the process.

Enji felt a grumble begin, clumsy.

"What's wrong?", he heard Shouto's low voice, one he was used to hearing with no emotion. But, now it seemed to be filled with worry.

"Sorry, I just had a bad dream", The boy lied.

Enji's eyes widened again as he watched his stoic son reach his arm out to the boy and wrapped it around his waist, pulling Midoriya down onto the futon.

Enji stepped back in surprise, this felt like something he shouldn't have seen. His seemingly emotionless son comforting the crying small boy that everyone called the next All Might.

Enji left quickly, closing his bedroom door as quietly as possible.
