Pack Means Family

The Pups are Finally Convinced

Aizawa jolted when he heard his phone ringing. He and Yamada had just laid down after getting everything inside and into the living room. They had decided to leave the bags for their pups to unpack.

He groaned and slapped at his nightstand to find the offensive object. Yamada whined against his chest, trying to move closer.

The exhausted adult finally caught hold, prepared to snarled at whoever was calling at...

All thoughts stopped when he saw Nemuri's name. Aizawa's heart pounded in his chest as he sat up. He hit answer and put it on speaker in nearly one motion.

"What's wrong?" He asked as Yamada stirred next to him, sleep disturbed by his movement.

"Your pups are okay," the woman's said through the speaker.

"What happened, Nem?" Aizawa grunted as he shook his mate's shoulder. Yamada jerked awake, sitting up as he tried to get his bearings.

"There was an attempt on Izuku," Nemuri responded.

"We're on our way!" Aizawa said as he got up. Yamada was sitting up, confused. Aizawa handed him his glasses and hearing aids.

"Shou?" Yamada yawned.

"The pups are okay, but someone went after Izuku," Aizawa explained gently as he pulled a shirt on. He saw Yamada's eyes dilate and then constrict. "I told them we were on our way."

Yamada said nothing as he got out of bed and found the first set of clothes he could - jeans and a t-shirt. Aizawa wasn't much better in his pajama pants and t-shirt. They were out the door moments later with a blanket, one of the chew rings Aizawa had picked, and the bunny.

****

(Earlier that night - Izuku's POV)

I picked at lint on Hitoshi's shirt as I listened to him breathing. I know we're in a hospital, and the nurse has been super nice to me. She gave me a sucker and Hitoshi one, too, when they brought something called bone broth about dinner time.

I felt bad I didn't eat much, but the nice nurse cooed at me and promised that it was okay. Hitoshi did all the talking, and I let him pick our suckers too. Decisions were very hard for me because I hadn't ever been allowed to make them.

After we hid out sucker's in the shirt President Mic left us, Hitoshi fell asleep, and I pretended to when the door opened again.  I recognized the nice nurse's scent as she approached.

"Hey, bunny," the nurse cooed.

I blinked and looked up at her. She smiled at me and offered a tiny teddy bear.

"Ms. Midnight asked me to give you this. She got one for all the children," the nurse explained.

I studied the toy and poked Hitoshi. My friend stirred and looked at the nurse.

"Hmmm?" He muttered. The woman smiled and explained again, holding up a second bear. "Oh. Izu, it's okay. Remember, your papas said anything this nurse gives us is okay."

I smile and accept the teddy bear as Hitoshi accepts the one for him. The nurse smiles and leaves us alone again. Hitoshi drifts back to sleep cuddling his bear, and I even feel a little more relaxed. This smells like that nice lady who brought us here. It mixes really well with the scents of the two heroes that Hitoshi keeps calling my papas.

I start to relax, almost asleep when I hear the door open again. I shift and see a stranger in the room.

It's a man, and he's wearing clothes similar to the nurse... but I don't recognize him. I whimper and poke at Hitoshi.  Hitoshi doesn't really stir and I turn my head to watch the man.
