"Jesus fucking Christ." You breathed.

"Listen about the history-" Shouto began but you cut him off, pulling him into a bone-crushing hug.

"Man fuck the history. Actually don't - it's still amazing. Oh my God I'm so proud of you Shouto."

He looked up at you, his gaze hopeful. "Really?"

"Hell yeah! Ahh we need to do something to celebrate. What do you want to do?"

"Celebrate?" He seemed genuinely confused.

"Duh. You did something incredible and it deserves a reward. So what do you want to do? We can do everything besides take controlled substances," you joked.

He paused and then nervously chewed on his bottom lip. "Can I go see my mom?"

You smile faltered and you could immediately see his gaze flick downwards. Once again ready to be reprimanded.

You wanted to protest, knowing that you'd need Endeavor's permission but you couldn't do that to Shouto. You couldn't just give up without trying.

"Listen, I'll talk to your father, okay? Can't promise anything but I'll act like it was my idea."

His gaze showed you he was full of skeptical hope.

"You want to listen while I call him?"

Shouto nodded. You ruffled his hair before letting your finger hover over Endeavor's contact.

"Ready, kid?"

He pursed his lips but nodded nonetheless.

Ring...ring...ring...-

"What?"

"I'm sorry, Sir. Are you busy right now?"

"I'm in the office."

A pause.

"So speak," he finished.

"Sir, Shouto got his exam results back today and I wanted to do something nice for him because he did really well. You can be extremely proud of him, Sir."

A grunt. Permission to continue.

"I...listen, Sir. I would like to take him to see his mother."

The silence was loud. You could imagine his expression and you were very glad that you were doing this over the phone.

"What?"

Ah fuck. He was furious.

"Before you plan my funeral, Sir, can I just say that whatever you're afraid of happening probably won't. If you fear for his safety or emotional well being, I'll be there. He'll be safe,"
