"Not that my marriage or love life is of anyone's concern, but that was not my husband in those pictures!" Deku growled at the camera. "And while we are at it, let me ask you some questions! All you people do is follow us around, then belittle me and Ground Zero when we get fed up! I've always smiled and played the part, yet it's never enough is it? When does it all stop?!"

"But sir, you saw the pictures just like we all did!" the reporter exclaimed.

"And I was also there, with my husband at my side! He looks nothing like that knock off that Dragonbitchboy was with! And trust me, if that lowlife comes around me again, I'll break his other foot!" Deku yelled.

"So you admit to assaulting Draganeire?"

"He started it," Deku sneered.

It was then that Ground Zero came over, wrapping his arm around Deku and glaring at the camera man.

"Don't you have better things to do or other lives to ruin?" Ground Zero asked.

"All we want is a statement," the reporter insisted. "You have always kept quiet on your end and allowed Draganeire to say what he pleases. If we could just have your side of the story and share it-"

"-My side? Since when was anyone interested in what I had to say? My publicist has stated many times over that I was never abusive to Draganeire, but did anyone care to listen?" Ground Zero said, quickly losing his patience and raising his voice.

"And his accusations that your marriage is fake?"

Deku smirked and shook his head at this. "That is his sad attempt at trying to win back what he lost. He cannot fathom a life without Kacchan and now that I have him, he's just being a bitter little bitch about it all"

Ground Zero laughed. "I think you heard my husband loud and clear."

It was then that the Wonder Duo turned and walked away, heading back to their patrol.


Bakugou growled as Leadie smacked him once more on the back of his head. That shit really hurt! And she sure as fuck was coddling Midoriya- pissing him off even more.

"What the hell?!" he yelled, rubbing the sore spot on the back of his head. "It was fucking Deku out there causing a damn scene!"

Leadie sneered. "He is picking up your bad habits!"

Midoriya smiled and batted his lashes at Leadie. Bakugou shook his head- his fucking husband played her so well.

"So what is this all about anyway?" he asked.

"A few things," Leadie started, taking her seat and tapping her fingers on the desk, looking over her notes. "For one… I need you two to stop fucking destroying futons!"

Bakugou laughed and Midoriya turned red. They were on their second one this week. At least companies were sending them nonstop to them, that helped.

"I've recruited one from a support team, but the problem is making it comfortable and quirk withstanding," Leadie said. "Have you two considered… toning it down?"

Midoriya's eyes were wide as he seemed to melt into the floor. Bakugou smirked. "Tell that to your little angel over here," he said, watching Midoriya turn even more red.

"Now Katsuki! Don't you dare blame all of this on Izuku!" Leadie yelled, her voice changing over- but Bakugou didn't back down.

"I mean he did split one in half the other night after I spanked-"

"-Kacchan!" "Katsuki!"

Bakugou sat back, a satisfied smirk plastered on his face. Leadie thought of Midoriya as Japan's Sweetheart, he knew this- hell everyone thought this. He knew better.

"And on another topic," Leadie said, turning to face Midoriya. "I need you to go back to being your sweet and smiling self for the cameras. Can you do that for me, honey?"

Midoriya whined. "But I hate how they make Kacchan out to be the bad guy!"

"I know sweetie," Leadie said, getting up out of her chair and hugging Midoriya to her thin frame. Pushing his hair back, Leadie kissed his forehead and smiled at him. "But you know what a handful your husband is… and this just gives me so much more work."

"I'm sorry!" Midoriya yelped, wrapping his arms around Leadie and squeezing her hard.

"Oh for fuck sake!" Bakugou cried- this damn show Midoriya was putting on was making him sick.

"Katsuki! Don't push it!" Leadie warned, making her way back to her seat. "Now, you two are doing good with the whole 'making the marriage look real' bit here."

Midoriya smiled and took his hand. "That is because it is real!"

"Good, now stop letting the media get to you. Remember, the more you smile and the more you post on your blog, it helps. Stop focusing on Draganeire and just let that die down. People will forget about it in no time"

"Still wanna know how he managed to get himself some lookalike Kacchan," Midoriya mumbled.

"Oh that is easy," Leadie said, sitting back and tapping her fingers together under her chin. "He got him a new little piece that can mimic and transform into others."

"And we aren't exposing this?!" Bakugou exclaimed.

"And who the hell said I wasn't?" Leadie sneered.


Being back full force at work was eating up most of their days. They worked odd hours, and though luckily they were able to work together- it was still a lot.

Exhausted and covered in sweat, Bakugou leaned against the building and lifted his mask up. He could tell Midoriya was just as tired as he was. The villains were on some kind of spree lately, and it was wearing them out.

They had both fought great. He had to give it to the nerd, he was fast and strong. He ached from using his hands and blast so much- and he knew Midoriya had to be exhausted too.

That was when he saw the side of Midoriya's uniform covered in blood.

"Deku," he said, moving over to inspect his husband.

"I'm fine!" Midoriya spit, smacking his hand away.

Like hell he was. Bakugou didn't stop and he could tell Midoriya was truly hurt by the weakened attempt at trying to stop him. When he moved Midoriya's hand off the wound, more blood soaked through his uniform, and Bakugou growled.

"What the fuck, nerd?!" he yelled, picking Midoriya up and starting to run towards the hospital. His body was already at its limit- but that didn't matter right now.

"Kacchan… stop," Midoriya whined, then hissed.

The hospital seemed so far away- why was this damn nerd always putting himself in danger. Pushing himself harder, he growled as he ran through the streets- people gasping and stopping to stare. He was pretty sure there were some people taking pictures, but his thoughts were only on getting Midoriya safely taken care of.

He would have gone to the agency, but this seemed like something bigger than needed to be dealt with.

Stumbling a bit, his body was giving out- that fight was harder on him than he realized. He pushed himself as hard as he could. Seeing the hospital in sight, Bakugou growled and held Midoriya a bit tighter to him. Even with the hospital so close- it still seemed so far away.

"Ground Zero! Let me help!" a civilian called out- but Bakugou pushed them away. He didn't trust anyone with Midoriya right now. People were calling to him and once he got through the hospital doors- everything was a blur. Someone had taken Midoriya from his arms, then it all went black.


Tonight on the Hero News Network-

Our Wonder Duo, admitted into the hospital after the attack in the Western Sector earlier today. Both fought bravely, but from what bystanders are saying- Japan's Sweetheart, Deku was injured.

We have video from a woman who wishes to remain anonymous, showing Ground Zero carrying his husband into the hospital.

It is reported that Ground Zero passed out just inside the doors. Both heroes are under close observation but are said to be in stable condition.

Our thoughts go out to our Wonder Duo.


Bakugou had to stay the night in the hospital. Something about cracked ribs and being dehydrated. His parents had stopped by, as had Leadie.

"Go figure," Leadie said, sitting on the edge of his bed, being gentle with him. It made him uneasy, but he also didn't have the strength to worry. "You act all chivalrous with our little Izuku, and your favor ends up higher than his."

Bakugou blinked, not even comprehending what she said. Leadie laughed and turned her phone screen so he could see.

Sure enough, he and Midoriya had broken into the top ten for hero favors- with him being one step above Midoriya.

"See, I knew you had it in you," Leadie said, rubbing his arm. "Now get some sleep."

He wanted to see his husband- there was no fucking way he was going to sleep. Sitting up, he went to rip out his IV before Leadie wrapped her fingers around his arm. "Don't make me regret my damn words!"

"Let me see him!" Bakugou growled.

"Nurse!" Leadie called out.

Bakugou went to spark his hands, but the nurse was already pushing medicine into his IV.

"Fuck… you… hag…" Bakugou grumbled as his eyes started to close.

Bakugou was cleared to leave the next morning. They kept him informed on Midoriya's status throughout the night, and when he wouldn't calm down, he was sedated. He felt groggy, but he also had to go check on his husband.

A nurse assisted him to Midoriya's room, and when he got there- he saw that damn nerd- sitting up and giggling as he ate jello with Leadie.

"What the fuck?!" Bakugou yelled, startling Midoriya who smiled over at him.

"Kacchan!" Midoriya said, going to move off the bed, then hissing.

"Now dear, you rest," Leadie said, then turned to Bakugou. "And if your ass would have behaved last night, you wouldn't be so loopy right now! I had to sign off on them drugging you to sleep!"

Midoriya giggled. "Kacchan was just worried." Holding out his hand and Bakugou felt his body relax as he sat on the edge of Midoriya's bed, taking his hand.

"He was unreasonable! I went to tell him about your favor rankings and he threw a damn tantrum!" Leadie said.

That was right! Bakugou grabbed Leadie's phone, scrolling to their rankings. It wasn't a dream- he was ahead of Midoriya in favor. A kiss on his cheek and Midoriya was smiling at him.

"Now everyone sees the wonderful Kacchan I do!" Midoriya giggled.

Bakugou put his hand on Midoriya's face, pushing him away. "Damn right! I'm the fucking best!"


"It is so hard having sons as heroes, isn't it?," Inko sighed as she and Mitsuki made their way to visit at the hospital. She had a container of muffins that were Izuku's favorite.

She always worried, ever since he made it into UA. Inko always followed the news, and she found herself getting more worried as the days went by.

"Well at least our sons are bad asses," Mitzuki said.

That was true- Inko was astounded by all that her son could do. Even with Izuku working side by side with Katsuki- she still screamed at the TV when the news footage played. Sure, it was pre recorded and she already knew the outcome, but it still made her almost pass out each and every time.

Making it to her son's room, she saw him giggling while curled up next to Katsuki. It did make Inko feel better. Standing in the doorway, Inko and Mitsuki just smiled at the way Bakugou was bitching at Izuku, yet he was gently rubbing his arm, and holding him tightly.

Mitsuki gently elbowed her, and they knocked on the door as they walked in.

"Well you sure don't look beat up!" Inko exclaimed.

"Oh mom!" Izuku giggled, sitting up and hugging her as she made her way to the bed.

"Well at least my son finally found his damn manners," Mitsuki said.

"Damn woman!" Katsuki yelled.

Inko laughed. She saw how happy her son was, and how well Katsuki had cared for him, it really did make her feel a bit more at ease.


Leadie had just poured herself a glass of wine, ready to settle in for the evening. Smiling, she looked at that favor rankings once more. Her boys had done it.

It had been a rough road, and hell she had the gray hairs to show for it. She reminded herself to set a hair appointment the next day to get that fixed.

Flexing her fingers, she sipped her wine and saw the hospital calling. Probably just a check on how Izuku was doing.

"Yes, Hello?" Leadie said.

"Um...ma'am," a nervous voice said. "We aren't sure how to tell you this."

Leadie's heart stopped for a moment. "Are… are my boys ok?"

"Oh ma'am! They are fine! We just… well we've never had this issue before and aren't really sure how to say this," the woman said.

A sigh of relief and Leadie took a sip of her wine. "Whatever those two need to heal… just bill it through the hero network."

A nervous cough and the woman giggled. "But does the hero network covered broken hospital beds?"

Leadie spit her wine across the room.
