"Come on in!". All Might smiled, after a day of talking to concerned and deservedly angry parents his final stop at the Aizawa residence was a breath of fresh air.
Yamada had offered to have the now retired hero over. He felt bad for not being one of the staff members that had to do the actual apologizing. Shouta and All Might had done the press briefing too, so it only felt natural to offer some compensation.
It was a relief to Toshinori too, Nakabayashi was safe, alive and very enthusiastic about the dessert he made. "I see you're doing well then, young Nakabayashi, have all your injuries cleared up?" He asked with a small smile.
"Mostly, I still have some stitches in my head but that's only till monday. Other than that I'm good as new!" The teen said, pointing the cut on his eyebrow. All Might's gaze softened. Nakabayashi had tried so very hard to stay strong throughout the whole ordeal. He didn't cry during police interviews or when he was ambushed by the press. For him that was astonishing. All Might also worried for both him and Bakugou. An ordeal like that was bound to cause trauma yet neither had shown major signs of it.
As the former no.1 hero entered the home he noticed how many pictures were on the walls on every available surface. The older ones were all landscapes but the newer photos were almost exclusively of people. The most striking to Toshinori was a framed photo of his co-workers on what had to be their balcony. They were in formal suits and Shinso and Nakabayashi were in matching purple suits standing in front of them. Words on the bottom of the frame clued All Might in. 'He said yes'.
"All Might?" Aizawa asked. His eyes soon fell to where Toshinori was staring in shock. "Ah, I probably should told you. Hizashi isn't here because he didn't have time to move out after the U.S.J attack, we got engaged.". The former hero's mouth hung open for a second before he shut it. He thought they had just recently started dating from the way they acted, turns out it had been the beginnings of the newly wed stage.
"Congratulations!" He said with the most genuine smile Shouta had ever seen him display. The underground hero bit back a smile of his own before shaking his head a little and smiling back. "Thank you.".
"So I get up for a glass of water, right? And there's Nao cuddled up with Vanilla Bean, sobbing his eyes out at a penguin documentary! It was like flashbacks to U.A, I'm telling you!" Hizashi said in his typically animated style. All Might laughed, he had already heard so many stories from Midnight he could completely imagine teenage Aizawa sobbing over baby penguins.
As the night went on it seemed like he only learned how wrong his thoughts about how his colleagues acted in their off hours were. With about 5 jobs he never would have thought Yamada had time to cook and he definitely didn't expect Aizawa to be so into photography. Nakabayashi also surprised him with the drawings he saw littered around the place, the kid had talent. The fact they were mostly heroes didn't surprise All Might in the least, he knew how dedicated Nakabayashi was.
"Stop telling All Might all my embarrassing stories! I didn't tell him it took 6 years to get dad to marry you!" Nao fired back. Who thought having parents meant your worst moments being revealed to your idol. He watched his dad laugh a little and cover it with a napkin as his pops sputtered. All Might looked way to interested in that story.
"Oh, you wanna play it like that?" His pops challenged. Nao smirked "Bring it on, burner of cakes.".
"Round one, begin..." Toshinori mumbled. He wasn't complaining, it had been years since he'd been in such a familial conversation. Top heroes didn't really have time for that sort of thing. Aizawa simply walked back into the room with lemon tarts and handed one to Toshinori. "I'd get popcorn if we had any." The underground hero said with a smirk.
