Izuku was curled up against Enji's side, quietly scrolling through his phone, looking at his Switter feed. Enji's accident was trending right now, his hospital room was full of get-well gifts from the man's friends, partners, agents, and clients.

Millions of people were wishing him a speedy recovery and since the Todoroki family was highly respected by so many, the paparazzi and new stations are respecting their privacy. It was very shocking to many but those close to them knew better.

The Todoroki's "invest" a lot of money into their companies and if they publish anything about them without permission they're done for.

"Enji I swear to god- Eat or so help me you'll be in here longer," Rei said through clenched teeth.

"Rei I am not eating that horse shit, why can't you just have someone bring me some real food," Enji crossed his arms.

"Because SOMEONE can't swallow pills like an adult so you get medicated meals instead. Now eat," She glared.

"No, I don't want it it's nasty," Enji said stubbornly.

Rei gripped the chopsticks like she was about to stab the man, "So help me god-"

Izuku sat up and gently grabbed the food tray, Rei huffed and handed it over to Izuku before she became a widow. Izuku scooted closer to Enji and connected the tray to the hospital bed then sat on his knees.

"I know it's nasty but you have to get better, if you eat it really fast you won't taste it as much," Izuku said quietly.

Enji was but a weak man, "Alright Izuku, I'll eat it for you," He gave in immediately.

Izuku smiled, "Thank you,"

The rest of the family just sighed in relief as Izuku fed Enji like he was a small child. If it wasn't for that angel they really might have become a one-parent household. It's been a while since they've seen Izuku smile though, for the last two and a half weeks he has refused to leave the hospital.

He'd just stay in bed with Enji all day, either sulking or taking care of his every need. If anyone didn't know better they'd think Izuku was their biological child and the baby of the family. Anyone would think Izuku loved the man more than everyone else but they knew the truth.

Izuku was afraid, afraid of losing yet another parental figure to another unexpected event. He had no biological family left, they're all he has now, and if he lost them too it'd hurt so much he'd want to die.

Izuku was lucky everyone knew how close he was to the family, it was unfortunate but they understood why he needed to take a short hiatus. Now he had plenty of time to look after Enji but also his mental health.

"Izu, Iida said he's coming up now," Shoto looked up from his phone.

Izuku turned to him, "Why?"

"Oh, I asked him to stop by our place and grab a few things," Touya yawned.

"Oh ok,"

"I'll go show him up, I had to go down to the lobby anyways," Natsuo got up and stretched.

"Can you stop by the in-shop on your way back up, you know what Bun likes," Touya handed him some money.

(An in-shop is like a little convenience store or gas station attached to the gift shop)

"Gotcha, anyone else want anything?" Natsuo asked.

"Milk tea,"

"Can you get me those little candies you got me last time? They were good," Rei told him.
