Taste Your Toxicity (MHA AU) (Temp Hiatus For Editing)

By Blood, By family

HAWKS POV

I woke up early today, I never do that. As I sit up in my bed I stretch. Damia barges in through the door. "Toya's gone, again." I check my phone screen, {7:30 and a notification 'Toya: I went to my dad's to get my Swat gear and to get coffee. I didn't want to wake either one of you and I was afraid to text Damia.'} I look at Damia. "He's safe, he's with his dad." "He didn't take his jacket." I sigh. "He hasn't lied about going to see Enji yet, so I'm I gonna trust him on this as I show her the text. Damia sighs and heads to the kitchen to plan out lunch and dinner for the day.

TOYAS POV

It was warm so I left my jacket at home, I'm in a black T shirt that's tucked into my black jeans with my typical white belt across my hips. Walking down the street without a disguise feels really weird. Everyone is either staring or trying to look like they aren't.

Enji's car pulls up. I get in to the passenger side and vent the window. "So dad we got some serious stuff to talk about... I don't want you to get mad with me either." Enji looks at me with the calmest look I've ever seen across his face. "Alright," he says. I grip my hands together in my lap, worried about being thrown out of the car. "I got addicted to drugs, like hardcore drugs after my near death incident... Y'know.. when you...saved me?" He nods, setting a hand on my shoulder. I flinch immediately so he pulls back a bit before setting it down again. "I want to help you, have you been to a clinic?" I nod. "Yeah, they have me a prescription for Methadone... But I still get the craving for it and my roommates are pissed...I... I never wanted this to happen." I grab at my head. "it made the pain from my burns go away and I could be myself... Like...I could be Toya..." Enji sees small streams of blood escaping my hands that slid over my face.

Enji pulls the car over to grab my hands and check my face. "your bleeding but from where?" I glance at him, swiping some of the blood out of my eye as it stings. "My eyes...I bleed form my eyes. My tear ducts are burnt shut." Enji gently turns my face to look at him. "Son, talk to me... Tell me what's bothering you." I touch his hand, sliding my finger across it. I've never been touched by him like this, not even as a child. Blood started to flood out my eyes as I pulled against my seat belt and hugged him, tight as I shook in his arms.

After we talked and I calmed down we pulled through a coffee shop Togo line and got coffee to drink on our way back to the street I had him pick me up at. "Hey Dad, thank you for listening to me blabber today. I didn't want anyone to see me like that..." He nods as he sips his coffee, I do the same. Enji pulls up to the curb, he hands me a backpack that he put my gear into. I give him a fist bump goodbye and he pulls away. I sigh as I shift the backpack over my shoulders and sip my coffee as I walk back.

When I open the door, Damia and Hawks are on the couch. They were wait for me to get back.
