Izuku scribbled in his notebook, concentrating and going through his head on the answers. His other classmates were meandering around the common room, but Izuku was just trying to focus on his work, even though he wasn't feeling well.
The Soulmate bond was abuzz and he was already feeling a bit lonely, but it wasn't like he could follow Enji around. He was a Pro-Hero and was busy. Just because they were Soulmates didn't mean everything was going to stop for them or exceptions get made. He had a job to do and Izuku was learning to become a real Hero too.
But…that being said, he couldn't help how he felt. It was a mixture of how he was feeling and the bond exacerbating things…
At least he wasn't feeling sick. The first time this happened and they were apart, he'd gotten really sick and Enji had to rush back and had ended up taking care of him. It had been…embarrassing but also sweet, and it was the first real glimpse of an Endeavor who cared —someone he'd envisioned differently —and he'd been able to see potential in a "them."
Still, Enji couldn't do that all the time, so Izuku will just have to learn to deal. No one knew they were Soulmates either, aside from family and people who needed to know (like Izuku's parents and Enji's family, and Principal Nedzu and Aizawa-sensei). As much as he'd wanted to tell All Might, even he'd been kept out of the loop.
"What's with that look on your face, Dad?" Shoto asked, voice nonchalant and normal, despite what he'd just called Izuku.
Izuku turned red, sputtering as he looked at Shoto in shock. He looked around in a panic, refraining from making too much of a scene.
"T-Todoroki-kun!" Izuku mumbled in dismay.
Shoto briefly smirked, but pointed out the door. "Go out for a moment," he said.
Izuku scrunched up his eyebrows and went out of the dorm discreetly, bursting into a blissful mess at the sight of Enji standing there. He ended up rushing forwards and tossing himself at Enji.
"You're here!" Izuku grinned widely. "Why are you here?"
"I just got back," Enji said quietly. "I was wondering if you wanted me to take you out to dinner?"
"Only if you want to," Izuku said shyly.
Enji nodded simply, causing Izuku to beam happily at him.
"Are we going now?"
"Yeah…"
Izuku leaned in to hug him tightly, enjoying how Enji's arms hesitantly wrapped around him and practically encased him. "Let me just grab my phone, okay?"
He went back in, only to stop short as Shoto greeted him with a "Hi, Dad," giving him a sly smirk.
Izuku started sputtering again, glancing around and glad everyone seemed to be gone from the commons already. Enji then poked his head around Izuku and glared suspiciously at Shoto.
"What did you say?"
Shoto looked surprised before he coughed and changed his face to a more indifferent expression.
"Saying hi…to you. Hi, Dad," he repeated smoothly.
Izuku made a little huff while Enji kept his eyes on Shoto a moment longer. "I'm taking Izuku out to dinner. Do you want something?" Enji finally said.
"Soba," Shoto immediately said.
Enji rolled his eyes. "If we go to a Japanese restaurant. We might go to a burger joint though."
"Then a cheeseburger and fries," Shoto said. "No —"
"No lettuce and tomato," Enji finished. "See you later then," he grabbed Izuku's hand and pulled him back out, letting go once they were in the hall.
Enji rubbed his face in agitation. "I'm sorry about him," he sighed. "I can't believe he's doing this too."
"Too?" Izuku echoed faintly.
It was strange seeing a light blush on the older man's cheeks. "Fuyumi started it actually. They've been…teasing me at home."
"Are you sure they're not calling you 'Dad?'" Izuku twitched.
"They don't call me Dad," Enji said wryly. "I'm 'Father.' You're Dad. And they only recently started with the English stuff when they learned how good you were with English. I used to be Otou-san."
That made Izuku smile and even relax a bit.
"Don't worry too much about it," Enji said gruffly. "It was going to happen sooner or later anyway. Better now and get used to it already."
Izuku fully blushed at that, but he smiled a little to himself too. He felt Enji's hand reach out to hold his again and Izuku felt really happy then.
They really did have good potential together. It might be really strange —they might be really strange…but this wasn't as bad as he thought it might be.
(It was strange to be called 'Dad' and have kids already, but he thought he could get used to it.)
