Later that night, I found myself once again back at the club. To no one's surprise, Uraraka and Himiko had made up instantly and were now a few shots deep, giggling at the bar. Of course, my best friend had betrayed me the second the two girls were friends again, spilling the secret of my boyfriend. One of them at least.
"I miss having Toga around to distract her," Shinsou said mournfully, taking a swig of his beer. I hadn't given him shit for his drink choice a year ago and he'd said it was the same thing as drinking black coffee, he didn't drink it for the taste.
I bumped him with my elbow, scolding him lightly. "Don't be mean to our friend."
"She's a lot, you cannot disagree with that!" He defended.
I laughed, having already taken a shot or two. "You've got me there," I said, pointing my empty shot glass at him.
"Oh, Dabi!" Toga called in a sweet voice, catching the eye of the bartender. "Fifteen shots, please!" She slammed a hand onto the bar with the request.
"Jesus fuck, you're gonna drink me out of business," Dabi scoffed at her, his hands braced against the bar.
"Keep the change," Todoroki said, holding a few bills out to him. "Ya know what? Just take the card and start a tab. Keep it on file if you want."
Dabi hesitantly snatched the cash and card away, looking at the card carefully. "Dad's?" He raised an eyebrow in question.
"Hell yeah."
Dabi laughed at his younger brother, shaking his head as he went to go pour our shots. I hadn't wanted Ashido to say anything about my friends coming with me, because I wanted to surprise the bar owner. Dabi wasn't much of a 'keep-in-contact' brother, disappearing for weeks or months at a time without much of a word. I had a feeling he hadn't talked to his brother since he left.
I was officially drunk after those three shots and my friends were no better off than me. Uraraka had already slipped off her chair once, thankfully catching herself before her face hit the ground, while Himiko was sobbing from laughing so hard. Even Todoroki was laughing at the girl. Shinsou had a hand on my shoulder, stopping me from falling forward while I tried to catch my breath.
"You guys waste no time, do you?" Dabi asked us with a chuckle, handing a different customer their drink.
Uraraka wrapped an arm around Himiko's neck, hugging her tightly. "I just missed her and Izuku so much." Her speech was slurred, but we were still able to understand what she had said.
"I can see that," the older man said with an amused smile at the two girls.
"Oh! Dabi, I have a question for you!" I called, leaning over the bar to the point where Uraraka had to pull back a little before I fell right over it.
The dark-haired man crossed his arms and looked like he was a disappointed teacher. "Hop my bar and I'll kick your ass out."
"Did you know Eijirou has an accent?" I completely disregarded the threat. I hadn't wanted to the hop bar, it was an accident.
"No?" His response was more of a question. "He has an accent?"
I nodded vigorously. "It's southern, he's from the south apparently. I just found out today."
"Don't think he cares, Mido," Shinsou said with a chuckle, pushing me back onto my stool and off of the bar.
"I was just wondering if he knew, seeing as everyone else did," I said with a frown, crossing my arms over my chest. I was a little snubbed that he hadn't told me about it earlier, I mean, I was dating the guy.
