A/N: Today's word is Gratitude. Also, sorry if they seem kind of OOC (Out of Character) I'm trying my best to keep them in character. I'm also going to cameo one of my favorite book characters in this.

Disclaimer: I don't own My Hero Academia. I also don't own Magnus Bane from The Moral Instruments.

Gratitude

Izuku Midoriya's PoV

Looking at Shouto's exhausted face, I nearly burst into tears. I manage to hold it together, but only just.

"Of course you can stay," I say, pulling him inside.

"Izuku, have I ever told you that you're a saint," he says.

"I don't know about all of that, but I love you," I say calmly. "Now, come inside and I'll introduce you to my mom."

And, with that, I drag him into my house. I grab his hand and lead him to the kitchen, where my mother is waiting.

"Izuku, who was that at the door," my mom asks without turning around.

"About that. Mom, I would like you to meet my boyfriend Shouto Todoroki," I say.

She turns around and looks him up and down. "Hello dear, it's nice to meet you. Izuku really likes you and I can see why. I can tell that you're a sweet boy and a good soul. I'm glad my Izuku picked someone so good to be with. Now sit down, dinner will be ready shortly."

"Um about that, I actually need to talk to Izuku for a moment," he says.

"That's fine dear. Just hurry up so that your dinner doesn't get cold," Mom says.

He pulls me into the living room and begins to speak. "Izuku, I'm so glad telling your mom went so well. Unfortunately, telling my dad didn't go quite so smoothly. As in, he kicked me out when I said I wouldn't break up with you. So, I was wondering if I could stay here?"

He looks so small, that I just can't help myself. I pull him against me and place a soft kiss on his lips.

"I'll have to check with my mom, but I'm pretty sure she'll let you stay," I say, staring into his eyes.

I hold him against me for a few minutes, before pulling away.

"Shouto we should go eat before the food gets cold. We can ask her after dinner."

I pull him into the kitchen and we sit down. We eat in silence, staring at each other. When we finish, we go into the living room and sit down across from my mother.

"So I take it there's something you need to talk to me about," she says, perceptive as always.

I explain the situation to her, and end with, "So can he stay?"

"I suppose he can, as he has no where else to go. The problem is he'd have to sleep in your room Izuku. We don't have a guest room and I don't want him to sleep on the couch. Can I trust you two not to do anything inappropriate?" she asks.

"I promise you can trust me not do anything Mrs. Midoriya," Shouto says.

"You can trust me too Mom," I add.

"Well then, I don't have a problem with it. You boys should start to get ready for bed," she says.

"Thank you for letting me stay here Mrs. Midoriya. Let me know if I can help you with anything," he says.

"It's no problem," she says.

"Still, I'm grateful" he says.

"Um, Honey, I think she gets it," I say.

"Goodnight boys," Mom says, as I drag Shouto to my room.

"Night," I call over my shoulder. "Shouto, the bathroom is over there. When you're done changing come into my room, it's the one right next door to the bathroom," I say, pointing at the bathroom.

Shouto PoV

I pull off the clothes I'm wearing, and change into my sleepwear. I brush my teeth and stare at myself in the mirror. I still can't believe I'm here, in Izuku's house. It still doesn't feel real, him and I being a couple, I mean. And now, I'm going to sleep in the same bed as him. I brace myself before stepping out of the bathroom and walking into the room I now share with Izuku.

I look around the room and thousands of All Might's stare back at me. His whole room is covered in All Might's merch!Of course it would be. That's Izuku for you.

The only part of the room that doesn't have a trace of All Might in it is a corner full of pictures of his friends. There's also quite a few pictures of me. And, underneath all of the pictures, his stack of hero notebooks.

"So, what do you think?" he asks anxiously.

"It's so you, I love it," I say.

"Really?" he asks happily.

"I wouldn't say so if I didn't mean it," I say.

"Well, we should probably be heading to bed," he says after a pause.

"We should. Oh, and Izuku, I meant what I said earlier, about being grateful," I say.

"Save your gratitude for someone who wants it. Now, lets go to bed," he says.

And, without another word, I get in on one side of his bed and he gets in on the other. He uses a remote to turn off the lights, and he nuzzles into me.

"I love you Shouto," he says, burying his head deeper into my chest.

"I love you too Izuku," I say, but he had already fallen asleep. I wrap my arms around him and bury my face in his hair. I fall asleep only minutes later.

Unknown Pov (I promise this is the last one)

"I didn't expect you to get here so soon" I say.

"Well I do owe you a favor. What is it that you need me to do?" he says.

"Well Magnus, I need you to follow Izuku and his boyfriend around for awhile and then tell me the best way to break them up," I say.

"Fine, I'll take care of this quickly. I want to get back to my boyfriend Alec as soon as possible," he says shortly.

"That's fine, just take care of it," I say.

He turns to walk out, "Goodbye Bakugo."

A/N: So what did you think. I've decided that I might extend this story past Thanksgiving. I'll just have to see. You know what to do if you liked it.
