IV: Subtle Competition

Third POV

It was 5:30 am when the sound of a phone ring woke Setsuna Tokage, the star model of M&M Bakugo Fashion.

She groaned, shooting upright from her king sized bed and snatching the device off the shiny finished nightstand.

"Who is it?" She snapped, placing the device to her ear, "I don't know who you are, but some of us need our fucking beauty sleep."

"Your fucking beauty sleep should be the least of your worries right now, Setsuna." Katsuki voice rang on the other end of the line, startling her.

Immediately, she cleared her throat and tugged the blanket up her nude body as if Katsuki was in front of her.

"Katsuki! I didn't know you were going to call," She stammered out, "It's a bit early, don't you think?"

"Look, I'm not calling to make light talk with you," Katsuki spat, with venom lacing each word, "When Riku was with you, did he take his medicine?"

"And be very careful with your next choice of words."

Setsuna swallowed, staring at the still sealed pharmacy bag holding her pup's medication Katsuki had hand given to her when he dropped the boy off last week.

"I might've missed a day or two, what with modelling for your parent's company and-," She tried to explain but she was cut off by him telling her to shut up.

"Damn it, Setsuna," Katsuki snarled, "I don't understand why you refuse to care for your own child."

"This is the fourth time since we made the agreement of week drop offs that you have missed his medication and he's gotten sick again."

Setsuna inwardly cringed, brushing a strand of hair back, "I know, I'm his dam, don't you think I don't fucking feel bad?"

"Why don't you bring him here and let me look after him when I get off of work at four?"

Katsuki gritted his teeth, "No, he already has someone looking after him."

"I'm just letting you know that you're on thin ice."

Setsuna tried to retaliate, but Katsuki had hung up on her.

"Fuck." She cursed, picking up the picture of her and Katsuki with a newborn Riku.

Izuku adjusted Hiro's blazer, apologizing profusely to Sero and Kaminari for making them late.

"Like I said," Sero started, "It's totally fine, besides a birdie told me you were checking up on the boss' son."

He then looked over to Kaminari who gave him a thumbs up in agreement.

Izuku nodded, "Just wanted to make sure he took some medicine and ate a bit before sleeping."

"I called to just be for the morning trip meeting and then go home because of another 'emergency'."

He then looked down at Hiro, gently brushing his hair.

"You don't mind being picked up alone, do you?" Izuku questioned, looking at Hiro who had his poker face on.
