The mall was evacuated slowly as the heroes and police swept the building, but it was too late, Shigaraki was gone. Todoroki was sitting next to his boyfriend when Aizawa and Yamada arrived.

They send his boyfriend away to be escorted home by the police. Izuku reassures him that he's fine, and let's his papa wrap him in a hug. He feels a weight on his shoulder, and he looks back to see it's Aizawa. He looks at him and says, "Take care of yourself tonight."

The boy leaves, and Aizawa goes up to his son. His voice is raspy, "Dads, can I-can I," the boy coughs into his arm, "Can I heal myself?"

As much as they didn't want to see their son in pain, they couldn't help but remember what the doctor in Hosu had said.

"It's true he is getting rid of the injury, but when he releases it it means that he doesn't go through the substantial process to rebuild his muscles and strength. Using his quirk on other people and immediately transferring it is fine. It makes me worry for his future if he continues to heal his own."

Hizashi hugs him tighter, "I'm sorry baby, but the paramedics said that you'll be okay in a couple of days. I think we should wait it out."

The boy slumps, disappointed, into his chest. He feels so helpless. To save his voice, the two men accompany him to the police station to give his report to Tsukauchi who's leading the investigation against the League of Villains.

It takes him a little longer to tell the story than it normally would, though the men wait patiently until he is finished, "He mentioned Hisashi."

Tsukauchi doesn't even look at the two heroes, instead focusing on the boy in front of him, "I asked what he wanted with me," the boy coughs, "He said he didn't know. I'm sorry."

Tsukauchi reassures him that the boy did everything he could in the moment, and made the right decisions to protect people. After what seems like forever, the three make their way outside.

Yamada holds onto Izukus hand protectively as they begin their walk towards the apartment, "Dads?" They stop scanning the crowds to look at their son who has tears in his eyes, "I'm, I'm sorry!"

"No, baby, you're okay- we're not mad," Hisashi tries to explain as his son wipes away the tears with his sleeve.

"I promise," he whispers, frantically looking between the two, "I promise it wasn't even three minutes away from Shoto, I'm sorry!" His voice cracks.

Aizawa presses the boys face into the side of his chest, putting his hand in his hair. God when had he gotten so big, "We know, baby. We don't care about that anymore, we're just happy you're safe with us."

And ultimately, that was the truth.

*****************
A few days later, Shoto and Izuku went out to a restaurant though not alone. Amajiki and Mirio trail behind the two, the official chaperones for the night.

The boys decided on the ramen place by Todorokis house. Upon entering, they see two girls at the host stand in front of them. Izuku doesn't even recognize them due to the missing ponytail, "Momo," he greets, getting her attention.

Both girls turn around, revealing Jiro and Momo grinning sheepishly. Izuku immediately suggests a double date.

Todoroki had gotten a reservation for four, not knowing the two older boys would be sitting a few tables away from them on a date of their own. So Jiro and Momo joined the boys in the booth, each sitting next to their respective partner.

They chat politely for awhile before Jiro and Izukus curiousity gets the better of them and they begin to fire questions about their relationships, "I knew something was going on at the Sports Festival between you too!" Jiro cheers.

"So did Momo ask you out? Where did she take you?"

She had already revealed her and Momo had been seeing each other since the week of their internships, "She let me choose the place so we went to Korean BBQ, but I underestimated how messy it could get!" She goes into detail about how she had food smeared all the way to her nose, and how her girlfriend accidentally wiped her hands on her white pants.

"Yeah well, my story's better. I gave Shoto a bloody nose!"

Both girls look at Izuku with wide eyes and Yaoyorozu glares at her friend, "You failed to mention a bloody nose in the story you told me."

The boy blushes, "Well you lied about the actual reason you ruined your white Louis Vuitton pants!"

Jiro looks horrified, "Louis Vuitton?!" Momo nods, embarrassed, "How much were they?"

She grins sheepishly, "About 1,300," she quickly comforts the girl who looks like she was about to vomit, "It's okay, it's okay, they were a couple years old anyway, and I got some replacements from Chanel for my birthday!"

Todoroki laughs as the two girls discuss the incident, "Hey, Sho?" Izuku gets his attention, "I've, uh, I've never done anything to your expensive clothes, right?"

Todoroki forces a smile, "Ah, well nothing as expensive as Momo's, and technically you haven't ruined it," Izuku glares at him, "That navy blue sweatshirt I gave you. It's an Armani."

Now both Izuku and Jiro are discussing this, "Why on EARTH would you give me an Armani sweatshirt?! Why would you even let it leave your house?! I thought people only bought designer things in movies, and especially not for their kids!"

Todoroki shrugs and places a kiss on his cheek, "Well, you liked that one. My dads the number two hero, we have a lot of money."

God he was dating a capitalist- a CAPITALIST. He can see the freckled boys wheels turning so he says, "We donate over half of my dads income, and we're putting money back into the economy. Dad also gives all his sidekicks 5,000 dollar holiday bonuses every year. Money is just an aspect that comes with the job..."

Izuku crosses his arms and pouts, so Shoto pokes his sides until he laughs. "Can I keep the sweatshirt?" He asks.

"Oh I wasn't planning on letting you give it back."

*******************
Aizawa looks around the bus, crossing kids names off his list as he sees them in their pairs.

He finds Shinso sitting with Kaminari and Aizawa hits himself internally. He thinks to himself, 'Damn, I should have given the kid a warning about loud blondes!'

He's not any happier when he sees his son sitting next to Todoroki, much closer than necessary. The seats weren't that small.

He doesn't even bother to call the class' attention to him as he states, "We will be driving for about six hours, try to sleep or at least be quiet. I'm going back to bed," he grumbles, going to the front seat and zipping his sleeping bag all the way up.

He wakes up about two hours into the trip. When he looks back at his students he finds all but three sleeping. Shinso is on his phone while the blonde lays in his lap. Tokoyami is also awake, and him and Shoji watch a movie together on one of their phones.

He's about to turn back ahead and choose a movie to watch, liking his two students idea when he catches a glimpse of Todoroki. He looks closer, seeing that both pillows are behind his back against the side of the bus while he leans into the seat. Aizawa can just barely see the green of Izukus hair near the boys chin.

He ditched the movie idea and texts his husband instead.
