In so many different ways, one's life can change in just one day. For better or for worse. For the family that grew from a secret they experience the better of the two. The small families lives changed for the better in just one day. There great moments may have been built on sad, miss fortune, or secrets but they always ended up okay.

Hiro woke to the sound of arguing, an argument based on him. He crept from his room to his parent to find the door slightly open. He knew they were trying to not wake him due to their argument because of the quietness of how they spoke but neither parent knew that they already failed to keep their argument quiet enough not to wake him.

"I don't want him getting hurt!" Izuku yelled in frustration.

"Yes, I understand that ones we become pro heros, that it could put him in danger but what are we supposed to do. Change his last name and pretend we're not his parents!" Katsuki yelled back.

"You know that I would never think of doing that! I just don't want him getting hurt."

"Izuku, you and I both have seen his admiration of heros. He has the same sparkle in his eyes that you! He'll most likely want to become a hero even if he doesn't get a quirk."

"He has a quirk!" Izuku yelled back at Katsuki. "I want him to become a hero, if that's what he wants to do but I'm scared. What if because of me being a hero, a villain will hurt him."

"Why didn't you tell me he had a quirk?" Katsuki asked.

"I don't know it just forgot to tell you."

"Does he have mine?" Katsuki questioned.

"No he has neither. He somehow developed teleportation. Don't distract me. I just don't want to see him get hurt because we are heroes."

"So let's make sure he doesn't get hurt. We get the crime rate down and we protect him. We protect him until he is able to protect himself." Katsuki said pulling Izuku into a hug.

"Okay." Izuku whispered nuzzling his face into Katsuki's chest.

In the silence that followed Hiro slipped into the room and walked over and hugged both of his parents' legs.

"Hiro, did we wake you?" Izuku askes petting Hiro's hair.

"Yeah."

"How much of it did you hear?" Katsuki said as he scooped Hiro up into his arms.

"Enough of it to know why you were arguing. Mommy don't worry I'm strong enough to protect myself." Both Izuku and Katsuki chuckled lightly.

"I bet you are. Now how about we get you to bed, it's late." Izuku responded.

"No, I wanna sleep in here." Izuku and Katsuki smiled at each other and tucked Hiro into there bed before they climbed in next to him.

"Goodnight Hiro." Katsuki said lightly.

"Goodnight, daddy. 'Night mommy." Hiro said as he drifted off to sleep. Soon after both his parents drifted off as well.

In the morning when they woke Katsuki asked Izuku if he'd like to go to the cliff, the place they had visited many times as kids. Hiro who still lay in their bed asleep was left with Inko to watch him. What Izuku failed to notice was Katsuki grabbing a small black box out of his bedside table.

Once they got to the cliff they walked hand in hand toward the edge. Katsuki put his hand in his pocket and pulled out the little black box and turned toward Izuku. Katsuki kneeled down and could see the tears already welding up in Izuku's eyes.

"Izuku Midoriya, I love you so much. I know in the past I've come off as angry and mean. I know I have not been the kindest or most amazing person in your life, but I love you. I know I can't go back and change all the horrible things I have done to you, but I can take this chance to change the future for us. Izuku Midoriya, will you marry me?" Katsuki held out the black box to reveal a ring with a small forest green stone on it.

"Yes! Oh yes, oh my yes!"
