So this is just a small BNHA fic that came to me while reading theories on Izuku's father. Many people pictate him as an asshole, but I read a fic where he is a good dad and liked that version better. This may be a two-shot, but I may have it up to probably four chapters. Just a small short story. Hope y'all like.

He remembers that night clearly. No matter how young he was that night, he remembers the blue and red lights that filled their house. He remembers his father looking at him with regret as the police took him away. He remembers seeing his dad whisper to the police before being let go so he can hug him one last time as a freeman and tell to him those words. "Don't let your dad's mistakes reflect your future. I may not be here anymore, but know that I want you to be a hero. Don't become your father." Then, he stood and went to the two officers, holding his hands out so that they can handcuff them.

Since that night, Midoriya Izuku, the son of Midoriya Inko and Midoriya Hisashi, grew up with only a mother and visited his father in prison whenever they could. He lies about where his father was, he lies and told people that he was away on a business trip. The only one who knows the truth is Bakugou, he had found out when Inko was speaking to his mother. Izuku was crying because he had found out, saying that he isn't going to be like his father. Bakugou told him to not cry and that he wasn't going to hate him because of who his father is. After that day, they never spoke about his father other on the days he visited him.

"Deku?" His memories are interrupted by his friend, Uraraka, who is looking at him weirdly. "Is something the matter?" They are in homeroom, having been told that they are going to work together on a two part project on what makes a villain. The first part is theories and regular reasoning, they have a few villains and they make a hypothesis in why they became villains. Izuku's group coincidentally got the villain Dragon who so happens to be his father, Midoriya Hisashi. Iida, Uraraka, Tokoyami, and Todoroki are in his group. Todoroki and Iida (and Aizawa) didn't miss the green haired boy tense or the small looks that the blond explosive teen gave him the first few minutes before starting the project.

"No, nothing's wrong," he answers quickly (too quickly, they notice). Tokoyami looks at the picture of Dragon then at them as if trying to send a message. "Oh! Um, Tokoyami what is it?"

"It says here that he turned himself in." That catches everyone's attention in the classroom and many people swarms around them to get a look of the report. It's unheard of that villains turn themselves, the news report that covered his arrest said nothing about that sort of detail. "I believed that the news report said the police had caught him in the park."

Everyone turns towards the front where the sleeping bag lays against the wall. Aizawa sighs as he shifts a bit. "Yes, the police covered up his surrender as a form of actual arrest on behalf of his request. He has a family so he wanted no one to harm them, that is why he turned himself in. Now, go back to your seats and finish your assignments."

"Wait! Does that mean he has children?" Mina questions, earning another sigh from the teacher once again. He really doesn't get paid enough for this. He sits up fully, his eyes sweeping across the room of students.

"He has a son about your age. He was three when his father turned himself in," he answers. "Now, enough questions, do your work until the bell rings. You have to present these hypotheses tomorrow morning and the following days until everyone is finished. Might need a clever argument, for you will be debating once one group is done presenting."

When it was time for lunch, Izuku was called to the teacher's lounge by All Might. There stands Aizawa and Tsukauchi who seem to be in midst of a deep conversation. They turn to him when they hear the door open, looking at the slight panicked boy who is typing furiously on his phone while Toshinori is glancing at him. "Midoriya?" he asks suddenly, unknown to the other two he had been trying to get the boy's attention for the past two minutes since making their way there.

"Sorry! My mom's a little freaked out. Anxiety spiked up and led to a small attack, fortunately she was out with a friend when it happened." His voice is distant as he checks the phone again, switching between a few contacts as he sends a message to Inko's doctor about anxiety pills. "Everything is fine though." He then mutters to himself, "I'll have to figure out how to get mom to take her medication. Maybe Dad can help."

They all heard him but say nothing about it. Yagi glances at Aizawa who seems to be bothered by the fact about the pills just as the number one hero is. "Midoriya, can you sit down, Tsukauchi has brought to our attention on something important."

Midoriya blinks as he pockets his phone. He does as he is asked and sits down, looking at the three heroes. "Did I do something wrong?"

"I had been at the prison—" he doesn't even finish his explanation and Midoriya's muscles are already taut. This doesn't go unnoticed. "And I noticed one villain has many visits, every once a month. Do you know who I speak about?"

He sighs and hangs his head. He should've known that they were going to find out sooner or later. "Dragon?"

"Yes."

"Is that why you called me here? For visiting him?"

Toshinori closes his eyes, shoulders slumping at the confirmation of their worries. So he has been speaking with the villain? Please, let this all be a misunderstanding. "Young Midoriya, you do know that he broke out of prison, right?"

Eyes wide, his attention is turned towards him. "No. He wouldn't. He—He promised he wasn't—" he starts muttering to himself, panic in his irises as he stares at the floor with his back hunched. "Mom, that's why she—"

"Midoriya, please calm down," Aizawa states in an uncharacteristic tone, placing a small hand on his shoulder. "We just want to know why you and your mother visit him."

Izuku swallows thickly, trying to calm his racing heart down. Maybe they just want to know why we visit him? They couldn't possibly believe that we helped him escape. "You know he has a son," he whispers. "We spoke about it in homeroom, he has a family which is why he turned himself in."

They all stop, staring at the teen in front of him. They cannot see it. How can this be? How can one of the top villains be the father of such a heroic boy that doubles as All Might's successor? The two teachers can now understand why he never brings up his father in a conversation. He must feel scared on how people would take such a revelation like this. No wonder he was so terrified when they brought up this conversation. "So he's—"

"He's my dad," he interrupts Tsukauchi. "Midoriya Hisashi is my father. We visit him ever since he turned himself in. No one knew about our relationship other than the villains in the prison, the officers that arrested him, and the prison guards."

"Do you know where he might be?"

Midoriya's eyes lit up, turning to All Might. "The beach."
