Thanksgiving Dinner

It was time. Kurogiri woke up bright and late, it was five in the afternoon. Exactly an hour before Tomura, Shita and Eri were supposed to arrive. He drank some wine to wake up and procedded to enter everyone's room. Toga was dragged out of her bed and placed her on the couch.

She woke up when Twice poked her cheek. Crying about how she was alive. Kurogiri woke Compressor up by banging a metal spoon against a pan, Spinner woke up when his room door was open, so now. There was only one person left. As usual, he threw the door open. Making Dabi startle awake.

"Dabi I need you to buy the-"

Someone else glanced you from the bed. Kurogiri didn't realize the red wings. He slammed the door and went back to the kitchen. Ignoring how Toga wheezed at his embarrassment. He didn't know Kiego had stayed over!!

"Toga, stop laughing and buy the
chicken!"

She stopped laughing.

"What!? Dabi is the one with a chicken obsessed boyfriend!? Why do I have to go!?"

"I'm not entering his room again,  and we have an hour until they're here! Get the damn chicken!"

Toga groaned but still dragged herself out, right before leaving, she made sure to ask the Important question.

"KFC?"

"Ew. No get Popeyes."

Toga nodded and left. While she got the chicken, Kurogiri made the table. A round table with ten chairs had a tablecloth, dishes, and cups. Compressor and Spinner went out to get dessert, so now. It was just Kurogiri and Twice in the living room. Twice started taking some alcohol out the bar.

"No, Eri will be here. I don't need her to see Toga drunk."

Twice silently placed the alcohol back where he found it. Dabi walked down the stairs, actually wearing a shirt. Thank God and Keigo trailed behind him. The chicken looked at the table, then he glanced around. Wondering why the hideout was so clean... Then it hit him.

"Oh... I forgot it was Thanksgiving..."

Keigo had never celebrated it before. Well, maybe once. Back when he lived with his mother. He looked at Kurogiri who refused to make eye contact. Still embarrassed it seems.

"And, what are we having?"

Twice answered.

"Popeyes!"

Keigo blinked.

"Not, KFC?"

Dabi chuckled.

"No one here eats KFC. Just you, hun."

Kurogiri added more fuel to the fire.

"Popeyes is better overall."

Keigo couldn't take the audacity anymore and went back to Dabi's room. The doorslamming couldn't overshadow Dabi's laughter. Kurogiri sat down, and prayed to God Toga would come back in time. Eri, Tomura and Shota were spending this years thanksgiving with him. He didn't want to fuck it up.

The moments passed by, whether Toga would come back alive or not was a question everyone was asking. Kurogiri glared holes into that door. Then it opened, he stood up, and sighed in relief when Toga came inside. She looked at them through the boxes of chicken, biscuits, and the carbon holding their drinks.

"Uh, a little help here??"

While everyone grabbed something from her arms, Dabi just watched as he questioned the amount of food.

"How'd you pay for that?"

Toga looked at him.

"I had to pay for it?"

"....."

Kurogiri blinked.

"Toga, I gave you money."

She searched her brain for when, that happened... Then it clicked on a memory from yesterday.

"Oh yeah, that money! Yeah I bought some things for Eri. Since christmas is around the corner, I got some discounts!"

Kurogiri didn't know if he should praise her for thinking of Eri, or scold her for stealing the food. But then again, it's not like Shota and Tomura need to know the money went elsewhere. The point is, the have food. Kurogiri made everyone organize the table.

Compressor and Spinner came back with many different desserts and Dabi... Was in charge of bringing Keigo back.
Now, Tomura and his family should be here any second now... Time passed, and there was no news. They were starting to get worried, right when Kurogiri wanted to open a portal and find them: his phone rang. He saw it was Tomura and answered it.

"Hello-"

Tomura spoke before Kurogiri could say anything else.

"Hey, sorry. We're going to cancel our pizza order."

The phone buzzed, showing the call had ended. Kurogiri lowered the cell phone while the others looked at him. All worried for the same reason. The commission was still trying to take Eri away, even with Nezu as her legal guardian, they didn't want her anywhere near Tomura.

"Well, eat up."

The pizza thing was something Dabi had suggested to Tomura. If anything happened, and they couldn't come to the made plans, that will let the league know why and that they're safe.

Their thanksgiving diner was silent.
