Hope Found in Ice and Flames

Chapter 27

Encounter

Izuku groaned, turning his head and slowly opening his eyes, seeing a sleeping redhead mere inches away from his face. He tried to back away but felt his body brush against another, turning back and seeing a blonde teen. Holy fuck.

His face went crimson. He was laying between two two on his side, his body up against Denki's while his arms and legs were intertwined with Eijirous and vice versa. They were so close. Izuku could feel Denki's body against his, he could feel Eijirou's breath, he was so out of it.

Lifting his arm, he cupped Eijirou's face in this hand and rubbed his thumb across his cheek gently, pausing when the redhead began to awaken, closing his eyes to seem asleep but leaving his hand on the teen's face. Eijirou opened his eyes, his cheeks dusting pink as a smile stretched along his face. He hugged the greenette close and mumbled incoherently, keeping him close. Denki sat up, having been awake for a while now, and pushed his hair out of his face.

"Is Izuku up?" He mumbled groggily, looking at his boyfriend and crush. Eijirou shrugged, placing his hand atop the greenette's hand that still lay on his cheek.

"Izuku?" Eijirou whispered, leaning closer to the freckled teen, if even possible, rubbing his hand. The green haired teen groaned, opening his eyes and raising a brow, Eijirou sat up, his face pink. Izuku is so cute.

Izuku sat up slowly, staring at his lap as his hair fell infront of his face, its longer length made him seem like some kind of god. He's so pretty.

{Time skip bc I can}

Shouta walked into the 1-A dormitory, walking past students in a hurry, he seemed frazzled, shocked, angry and somewhat dazed. He went into Shouto's room, bursting in and surprising the boy. "Shouto." He seethed, his brows furrowed.

Shouto was waiting to get told off by someone, anyone, he half expected Katsuki to burst in screaming, when he never did the dual haired boy figured he still didn't know. He was just waiting.

"Your family's here, get your brother and go downstairs." Now this, Shouto didn't expect. Did he know?? "You father is demanding you both come, said something about wanting a day out with you all on his day off." Shouto nodded, watching as his teacher left. He stared down at his phone, looking at his and Izuku's messages. He was still left on delivered, not a single peep from the recipient.

He sighed, getting dressed and leaving his room, going down the hall to his brother's. He stood at the door anxiously before knocking. The door opened and Denki stood in the doorway, Eijirou following him and peering over his shoulder, the boys only glared before getting Izuku.

Shouto questioned what they were doing there, wondering why on earth the couple would be with his brother. Izuku came and asked what he wanted with a tired and hoarse voice. Shouto explained and he nodded, slamming the door.

Soon, out came Eijirou and Denki, their faces red and dazed, then Izuku, who was wearing a different outfit and Eijirou's hoodie. Oh. Izuku passed his brother, walking to the elevator and pressing the button before going in. Shouto went in with him, he wanted to say something, anything, he just couldn't bring himself to. Not after what he said.

————

The family of six walked down the sidewalk, all chatting happily, well, most of them. Shouto stood off to the side sullenly, not bothering to interact. He felt as though he shouldn't get to have fun with the family, because of what he said to his own brother.

Fuyumi approached him. "What's the matter sho?" She asked. He pursed his lips, frowning but giving in, he began to explain the situation, tensing up every time his sister's eyes widened. She looked livid.  "Why would you even say that?" She asked, anger laced in her tone. The rest of the family paused, looking at the angered woman.

"Izuku is just as much Touya's brother as you are! Just because he's adopted doesn't mean shit!" She exploded. Natsuo's eyes widened, ralizing what was happening.

"Fuyumi calm down, I'm sure he didn't mean it..." he said, stepping between the two. The parents stared at their dual haired son in shock. Did he really? No way.

"I-I didn't...It just slipped out..."

"Natsuo I can't believe you're defending him right now! Whether it slipped out or not he shouldn't have even thought about what he said. What were you thinking huh?!" She yelled. Their parents intervened, Rei holding Fuyumi back gently and Enji placing a hand on Shouto's shoulder. "Seriously?! You too!" She shouted.

"No. Not even close. I just don't wish to cause a scene here... and Izuku looks uncomfortable." Enji said. "Shouto, I'm disappointed. I can't even begin to describe how I feel about this, it's horrible." He looked at his son, his eyes showed only sorrow.

"Aw, you dont want to make a scene, that sucks..." A familiar voice cooed. The black haired villain grinned at the family maliciously. "Me on the other hand, I think it'll be fun if we do!" He said, blue flames sprouting from his hands. Rei and Enji stared in terror. It couldn't be. Izuku stared as well, he'll admit that he didn't get a good close-up on this villain at the camp, but here, he stood on leveled eye-to-eye ground with the man.

"Nice to see you boys again! Hows your wing freckles? Feeling good?" Izuku went to respond, being cut off. "That's great! Now, you see, from what I know big man over here is Endeavor, and I have a big hatred for you. Soooo, why not torment you for a bit!?" He grinned, grabbing the green haired boy and holding him tight. Izuku squirmed, the feeling of being held by a strange man was uncomfortable.

Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Rei stared in horror, Enji and Shouto getting into battle stances. "Let him go!" Fuyumi shouted, the man paused, staring at her.

"Nah. I think I'm good." He laughed, holding out a hand in her direction before shooting out flames.
