It was late when we got back. We ended up spending the day together. Fuyumi came home after work. I ordered takeout, which is something I rarely do. Teka went home. We were sitting on the sofa watching a horror movie. "I'm home." Enji announce as he enter through the door. He takes his shoes off. I roll my eyes. "Shh!" Touya and Fuyumi shushed him. I hear his heavy footsteps get closer behind the couch. "Hi daddy." Fu greets quietly. "Hi sweetie." Enji kiss her forehead. He does the same with Touya who wipes it off. He's not fooling anybody. We all know he still enjoys our affection. I get up. "Y/N-" "We need to talk." I pull Enji upstairs. I didn't want to ruin the movie. "You know I don't like those four words. It never comes with good news." I lead him to his room, closing the door. "It's about Kento." "Y/N please tell me you're not going back to him." "I have to." "I promise you there's someone else out there for you. Someone better for you." "I'm not getting with him because I'm lonely. Listen Natsu called earlier." "Don't change the subject Y/N." "I'm not. Can you shut up and listen? Natsu called Touya. He put his brother on speaker and informed him that I know about the trafficking. Natsuo told us that Kento is part of the human trafficking. That he's the one kidnapping. We don't know if he's the boss. They extract our melanin and harvest our organs to sell on the black market. He befriends couples before he strikes. He kidnaps kids and elderly without any problems. He lures single moms in with his charms. And I'm his next target." I explain. Enji was silent. God I wish I was a mind reader. But that only comes when I'm sick. Just then, Enji punches the wall. There was a huge hole in it. I jump in response. "Todoroki what the hell?!" His chest was heaving. He sits down on his bed. He rubs his face. "This is my fault. How did I not know someone under me is a racist? And a human trafficker?" "Enji..." I walk closer to him. I remove his hands from his face. He holds my waist gently in his large hands. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." "Enji stop. Nobody knew he's racist. You can't just accuse someone of being one without proof. And as a pro hero he's automatically trusted, not automatically suspected. I joined in this mission. And Touya wants me to keep seeing him. Play it off because if I'm suspicious, he'll find out." "I'm pulling you all off this mission." "What? Enji no!" Enji holds my waist tighter. "You're all gonna get killed, hell no! I'm not going to let my family be sold off and killed!" Enji barks. "Do you trust me?" I stroke his hair. "Of course I do." "Then you should know I will never let anything happen to our children. Do you trust Touya?" "Yes of course." "He knows what he's doing." Enji was silent. "When I gave him this mission, I didn't know much of it. Just that there were missing people. He kept begging me for a solo mission so I gave it to him. I told him he's in charge and to think of everything on his own. This is his first mission without me. He didn't update me on anything. Had I known it was worse than I thought, I wouldn't have given it to him or pulled them off sooner. But I'm pulling you all off now." "Enji no!" "And if you all die?! Y/N you're my family. We created four beautiful children together. I'm not going to lose them to a psycho who is selling and trafficking them solely because of their skin color!" "Trust us. Have faith in Touya." "I do but I don't trust that bastard! And I don't want you near him ever again. You'll end up missing before our eyes." "We're not kids anymore Enji." "Jr's only fifteen." "He won't die. Neither of them will." "And you?" "I don't care if I do and I will bring him down with me. But please listen to me on this. This is Touya's first mission where he's in charge. You will never understand this because you're not in our shoes but it makes a bigger impact on the black community to know the faces who saved them are black heroes. It brings us closer." "If it's that important then I can put other black heroes on this mission." "No. Leave it to the siblings. I know Touya's going to execute a thorough plan and it will destroy the entire organization. I can feel it in my bones. He's got this. They got this. After all, they're a Todoroki." "They take after you too." "I know." Enji sighs and look up at me. "Fine. Under one condition. If it gets too bad, I'm pulling you all off." "It's going to get too bad. What mission doesn't?" "Y/N." "Enji." He gives me the look. "Don't give me that look Enji." I roll my eyes. "Fine. But only when I tell you it's too deep for us to handle." "I can deal with that. Watch over our children please. I want to be a grandfather some day." "I got them." I place his head on my stomach, hugging him. I stroke his red hair again. We didn't say anything. He held me close in his arms tightly. "Oh baby...everything's going to be okay. I won't let anything happen to our babies. I will die for them." I feel as he pulls away. Enji looks at me with genuine worry. He stands up, towering over me. Before I knew it, he was kissing me. I start to pull away. "Y/N please. I'm not doing this out of spite. I'm scared I'll never see my family again." I look at him. This was one of his ways of coping. I know it all to well.  I let Enji pull me closer, gripping the fabric of my clothes. I wrap my arms around his neck. It felt like a goodbye kiss. We continue to kiss, not a single moan escaping our lips. It was filled with passion, love and worry. I can't lie. I'm afraid of it too. Losing our children. Which is why I'll do everything in my power to make sure they come back alive. Even if it's without me. That's what scares me the most. I want to see them grow older. I want to see them all get married and have children. I want to grow old with Enji. Not because I'm in love with him. I want to visit our grandchildren with him and hear the words grandma and grandpa, not grandpa where's grandma. But I will gladly give up the title grandma when our children's lives are in danger. I will sacrifice myself for them. I will die for our children more than I will die for Japan. Knowing them, they won't let me just die. I'm sure Touya figured this out when I told him I'm joining the mission. Enji pulls away. He looks at me. "I love you Y/N." He kiss my hand. Right on my finger, where a wedding ring should be. "I know as a friend. I love you too." "That's not-" "Don't ruin this Todoroki. Come on. We're having a family movie night." I try to walk away but Enji kept his grip on my hand. "Only if you sleep with me." "No you have a girlfriend." "I didn't mean sexually." His eyes was pleading with mine. "Okay fine." We leave out and walk downstairs. Touya and Fuyumi fell asleep. We lay them down on opposite sides of each other. I move Touya's feet from her face. He's a lot taller than her. I grab the throw blanket and place it over them. We kiss their foreheads. "We created a beautiful family." Enji smiles. I nod in agreement. "I promise you, they'll come home alive after the mission." "All of you." "Yes all of us." I start to walk away. Enji grabs me and toss me over his shoulder. "Enji!" "Shh don't wake them." Enji walks upstairs to his room. He place me on his bed. "Don't run." He orders. He takes off his clothes. I cover my eyes. "Y/N you know what I look like naked." "That's why I'm covering my eyes. Go shower." I hear his footsteps fade away. The shower water turns on. I turn his tv on. His phone rings. It was Rei calling. He changed her name to Mrs. Todoroki. I grab his phone, placing it on the nightstand. I turn his lights off. I get comfortable under the blanket. I didn't realize I was asleep until I felt a kiss on my forehead. I stir awake. "Sorry I didn't mean to wake you." "No no it's fine. I wanted to tell you Rei called when you were in the shower." I yawn. "Is this pillowcase silk?" "You said it's good for hair. And our skin." I nod. "Right. Don't forget to call her back." I mumble, dozing off. I feel as Enji grab his phone. "Hey. Sorry I was in the shower." He was silent. "I can't. I'm spending some time with my family." He rejects. I'll never go to sleep now. "No no you're fine. I'll call you tomorrow. We can do something together after work. Goodnight." He says before hanging up. "You still awake?" "No." "Can we talk?" I groan. "Whaaaaaaaaat?" I whine, turning to face him. "We never get to talk anymore." "You're never home. We can do that in the morning." I reply in a sleepy voice. "How was your day?" I open my eyes, shooting him a death look. "Please?" I start kicking in the bed, throwing a tantrum. "Fine. Besides finding out my people are being trafficked, harvested sold and Kento is part of it all in the same day? My day was great. I spent time with Touya. We went to see Prescott for my new hero suit. She likes him." "I know. She gets all bubbly and nervous whenever I talk about him every time I see her for my suit." "Well no wonder we got yelled at. It's you who keeps interrupting her." Enji chuckles. "My bad. I always catch her during bad times. I suggested she hire help but she prefers to do it alone. She's stubborn just like him. They're made for each other." "He get his stubbornness from you." "And you." I roll my eyes. "You better not do anything to sabotage their friendship. I mean it Enji. No meddling. He sees her just as a friend." "I'm not. I want to see how it'll go for those two." I raise an eyebrow. "Who are you and what have you done with Enji Isamu Todoroki?" I suspiciously ask. "I know I sound like you." He made a disgusting sound in his voice. I pop him, causing him to laugh. "In all seriousness, I hope they do get together. They'd be a cute couple." I nod in agreement and yawn. I feel as Enji slides his hand down to my ass. I put my left leg over his waist, putting myself in the number four position. I place my head on his chest. Enji kiss my forehead and rub my ass gently in circles. "I hope he learned his lesson...from...Hinata...." I trail off, falling into a deep sleep.
