Shouto Midoriya wasnt a man known for many emotions, and yet there was Izuku Midoriya, who made him feel so many things all at once. They all were good emotions, of course. Shouto just was terrible at communication, having never had any real social interaction when he was growing up, his father constantly isolating him from his own siblings and the world.
But then, he met Izuku Midoriya. That boy truly changed everything about Shouto and he wasnt complaining one bit.
They went to the same school and both had the same aspiring dreams. This made them bond almost instantly. Izuku loved to ramble about anything and everything, which Shouto loved to listen to. Izuku would always apologize for speaking for so long and 'being annoying' as the shorter boy would put it. Shouto wondered who made him feel that he had to apologize for such things. He would want to take his revenge on that person.
Shouto wasnt completley sure when he fell in love with the other boy, but he knew that at some point he had started falling in love and he couldnt stop himself from falling. He felt like he was in a dream and hoped that he would never wake up.
"Dad, im home!", Called out a familiar voice.
"Welcome home, Haru.", Shouto calls out from the living area as he looks at an old picture from a picture frame.
Haru comes to sit next to his father on the couch and looks at the photo. He smiles.
"I remember that photo. You and Papa took me to the zoo for the first time that day.", Haru reminisces.
Shouto smiles softly and nods while fiddling with the ring on his left hand ring finger.
Haru notices this and frowns. "Hey, dad?"
Shouto looks at his son, whos grown to be just a little taller than him.
"Tell me the story of you and papa?", The black haired child questioned.
Shouto's eyes widen and he forms a small smile, "Okay."

By the time I was your age, I'd give anything
To fall in love truly was all I could thinkShouto never knew love, nor did he really care to think about it. He was just here to graduate and move on with his life. He didnt want to make any relationships, romantic or otherwise. He knew he was gay, he's had a few crushes in the past when he was younger, but he never acted on them due to fear.
Shouto just wants school to be over with forever. Hopefully move on from the terrible things he grew up with. He just wanted to forget his father and forget all the abuse he's been put through over the years. He knows his father is trying to get better, but he cant help but hold a grudge against the man still. He's not sure if he'll ever forgive his father.

That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
Shouto is at his locker, trying to organize and go through all his assorted books that he had for each class he had to take. His father had pushed him to take some AP classes this year, which meant even more homework, and working even harder than before.
His books and paper's stumble out of his locker as the sheer amount of each of these things couldnt fit inside his small locker with not much space all around. This causes Shouto to groan as he starts to pick up all his books and some paper's while other paper's begin to fly away, making him panic. "Shit.", he curses under his breath as they start to fly into the air, getting too high for the boy to reach even when he jumped as high as he could to get them.
