The next morning came too fast.
Dabi woke up with a big groan. He was half way under the couch and he couldn't even piece together how that happened. He groaned more as he pulled his body out. It felt sore and his head hurt. He couldn't tell if it was a hang over or not- maybe he hit his head? He sat up slowly, stood up and walked over Eijirou who was near the couch on the side.
The red headed alpha was drooling and it was actually pretty hilarious looking. He grinned to himself as he made he way towards the kitchen area. It took him a minute longer than it should have to see a woman walking around in her panties only. He blinked trying to figure out who the hell she was.
His hangover must be deceiving his eyes when Shouto walked up to her and kissed her cheek. Dabi gaped at them trying to figure the fuck what was going on. Shouto's shoulders had smeared lipstick and bite marks. A purple haired guy closed their fridge who was almost in his underwear and he proceeded to his kiss his brother and the practically naked girl. The three of them all had bite marks every where.
"Wha-? Wha the fuck?" Dabi said loudly slurring his words.
The woman turned around first. His cerulean eyes almost popped out of his skull as the sight of her breasts. They were the biggest he had ever seen and he had seen a lot.
"What's up my dude! You guys partied hella hard last night! I was gonna make some coffee while Hitoshi made some breakfast tacos."
Dabi's eyes flickered to his brother.
"How much…. did I drink? Did you drink? Am I losing my mind?"
The beta gave a sly smile, "Not as much as you guys. Probably."
"Ok…."
"Go downstairs and shower. We'll put on some clothes."
The black haired omega just nodded and went downstairs in a daze.
What in the fucking hell?
Tomura woke up about ten minutes later. His face was inches away from Izuku's ass. He grinned evilly despite the small amount of pounding in his head and pinched his ass hard. Izuku jumped up and smacked his ass where he got pinched. He rolled away to stare at the omega. His red eyes were sparkling with amusement.
"What was that for?" he whined, pouting with those big green doe eyes.
"Because your ass was in my face."
"Oh, I'm so sorry," Izuku cried blushing furiously.
The omega rubbed his forehead.
"You have a headache?" Izuku asked looking concerned.
"Yea…. Fuck. I can't remember the last time I drank that much. How did we get home?"
"Me either... I can't- I don't know..." he trailed off.
"Awwww fuck!"
The two of them turned around to see Eijirou sitting up. His usual spiky red hair was a mess and in every direction. He stared at Izuku then smiled.
"Damn man…. You know who to fucking party. I don't think I can do that every week but once a month or so would be down right awesome."
Izuku chuckled and got up slowly. He helped Tomura up next then helped Eijirou. The three of them stretched with their bodies cracking and popping almost in unison. The red headed alpha took in a deep breath.
"Who's making food?"
They turned towards the kitchen to see Camie pouring cups of coffee. She was wearing a blue tank top that looked like it belonged to Shouto. Hitoshi was still in his boxers but with his shirt from last night. Shouto was in gym shorts and no shirt.
"What's up dudes! We made breakfast! Are your other roommates hungry for some grub?"
Tomura rubbed his temples. Camie was too bright for the fucking morning... maybe not bright but too cheery and loud.
"I'll text them," the pale blue haired omega said as he went towards the stairs, "Eijirou you can use the main bathroom. Izuku, I'm going to piss in yours."
"Let me get some extra chairs," the beta said with a smirk.
"Where did everyone learn to cook?" the red headed alpha asked looking excited.
"Hitoshi here went to college for cooking classes. He's teaches cooking classes to people five days a week and nights on Sundays. I can microwave a Tv dinner and I can't use the stove. I've been banned from it."
Izuku saw Shouta at the top of the stairs. He took in a few deep breaths and waved over someone. Ochako came out slowly, sniffing. Going out was a different thing but having people in your house you didn't know was a whole other thing. She didn't mind driving Eijirou last night…. To be fair he was making out with Dabi a lot….. so he never said a word to her.
"Hi everyone," Ochako said with a shy smile.
"My god girlfriend! What a great scent!" Camie said with a grin, "I'm so jealous! I barely smell like roses!"
Ochako blushed and said thank you in a hushed voice. Shouto came back with three extra chairs. He placed them down and smiled at his other roommates.
"Hey Ochako. This is Camie, she's undetermined. This Hitoshi, he's omega."
The omega stared at Camie.
"You're…. undetermined too?"
The woman grinned with her hands on her hips, "Proud of it!"
Her brown eyes flickered to Izuku who smiled.
"I never met an undetermined until Izuku. I didn't think I would meet another one in my whole life."
Dabi came back up looking like he had showered.
"Is the food ready?" he asked eyeing his brother.
"Almost."
Dabi's eyes flickered over to the undetermined female and omega male. They smelled like Shouto…. the smell of him was rolling off of them even at a ten foot distance.
"Hey there beautiful!"
Eijirou hurried to Dabi's side and kissed his cheek. He turned bright pink with a smile on his face.
"God, I'ma be sick," Tomura said pretending to gag.
Dabi gave him the finger with a grin on his face.
Hitoshi had four pots of food. Eggs and ham. Eggs and bacon. Eggs and sausage. Eggs with ham, bacon and sausage mixed together. He served everyone while Camie handed out the cups of coffee. She gave Shouta the biggest cup which earned her a small smile and a nod of approval.
They ate, chatting among themselves. Tomura placed an elbow on the table and leaned his cheek against his hand. He had grown up with Kurogiri taking care of him with no one else really around. He hated groups of people and he hated the club last night, but this here was nice. He wasn't offended by anyone's smells. Camie smelled slightly like roses…. It wasn't super strong. Hitoshi smelled like chocolate pudding and some fruity smell…. maybe bananas? Eijirou had a weird baby powder scent mixed with lavender. They were all….. comforting.
"You ok?" Izuku asked softly.
Tomura glanced at him and nodded, "Just…. enjoying this."
A smile appeared on his freckled face and he was just like a green sun.
"God, you're too bright for the morning."
Izuku laughed. He looked at his friend. The red headed alpha looked like he adored Dabi. He hung on his every word and gave his undivided attention and Dabi was loving every minute of it. His gaze flickered over to Shouto who was between Hitoshi and Camie. They both smelled like him- mint and firewood. Izuku didn't smell it often other than when he passed the beta's room. It was a strong smell but not quite like Ochako's.
"Well, I apologize but Camie and I need a ride back to the club for our car. We don't drink and drive. We didn't get as plastered as we had expected too."
"Can I borrow your truck?" the beta asked, looking at his brother.
"Go nuts."
Shouto gave a nod. The three of them got up and headed for the beta's room for their belongings.
"I need to get home. I used Uber last night so I didn't drive anywhere," Eijirou said with a smile, "I have a few papers to write."
"Do you want me to take you?" Izuku asked.
"Hell yea! I was gonna Uber again but that works. I'll give you gas money!"
"I don't need it-
"Man, I don't care how much money you got! You fed me! I'll be in your debt forever!"
Izuku snorted and laughed.
"Let's get an iced coffee. I have a little bit I can spare you before I nap for work."
"We just woke up," Tomura said with a slight whine to his voice.
"I know but sleeping from drinking and sleeping for work are two different things."
Izuku reached out and ran his fingers through that beautiful pale blue hair. Tomura's mouth opened up slightly while he sat there speechless.
"I'll make time for you when I get back."
Ochako grinned knowingly as Tomura leaned back in his chair turning bright red.
Shouto took off with Camie and Hitoshi in Dabi's truck. Izuku waved at his roommates and Eijirou blew a kiss at Dabi who looked like he was in love already.
They got on the road back towards the college.
"I have to say…. He's one hell of a man," the red headed alpha said as he watched the trees go by and a smile on his face, "I think he's the one."
Izuku grinned from ear to ear, "I'm glad you two had a great time."
"Thank you so much. I might actually cry."
"Please don't cry…. I will cry."
Eijirou sniffed before he let out a laugh. He wiped his eyes.
"He smells like the ocean. I couldn't place it all night until this morning when I woke up. He smells like the mint tea my Mom would drink when I little and she was getting me and her ready for school and work."
"I'm glad I could help and make you happy."
"There is one thing I noticed."
Izuku pulled up to a red light.
"What's that?"
"The intensity between you and your omega. I know you can't smell it but I wasn't even sure he was omega at first. It was coming off of him like a tidal wave I even felt leery of him. If any two belonged, it would be you two. I haven't felt that ever in my life. You never used to have any smell to you but I can smell the difference."
"He's…. not mine."
"So….. he just smells that intense that you smell like him? Did he bite you?"
A car behind them honked making them both jump. Izuku stepped on the gas and took off.
"He did…. In his heat."
"You didn't mark him back?"
Izuku swallowed hard.
"N-no."
"You don't feel the same way?"
"I'm really different. Things don't work for me like everyone else."
Eijirou scratched his head. He had known Izuku for a few years once he moved into the dorms with Professor Yagi pulling strings to get him in even though he was a minor. Izuku looked like a little kid and a lot of people didn't take him seriously until the end of his first year. He was nice to him from the very start and he thought he was a little odd yea, but he wasn't intimidated by his alpha smell and status.
A lot people steered clear of him when they could and that his scent was a lot stronger than some alphas and it was off putting. When Izuku hit seventeen Eijirou wanted to make his interest in the undetermined male known but it wasn't working or getting through to him. Even when he pushed out special pheromones, Izuku wasn't able to detect it. It took everything the alpha had to not mark the guy against his will.
It wasn't like he had too anyways. The people near him wouldn't even cast him a second glance and Izuku was unfazed by it. When he was near the green haired teen, he smelled wonderful and different. He couldn't place the smell. It screamed so many things and it only showed up when they were alone in their dorm rooms together. The smells were different depending on what he was doing. The alpha knew he was special.
"I went to the doctor."
The red headed alpha looked at him as they pulled up to the college guard station. Eijirou flashed his student ID and the guard let them through.
"What is it then?"
"I told Tomura already. It has to stay secret. She told me she hid the information and marked me as a different undetermined. My genetics revealed I am a perfect alpha, beta and omega. I am all three at once and she said she wouldn't tell for the fear of what they will do to me."
Izuku parked near Eijirou's college dorm.
"That's really heavy."
He nodded as he put his forehead on the steering wheel.
"My ability to mate is unclear. Apparently some of us can mate more than once or only once. What if he doesn't want me? What if I'm that one that has one time and he does mark me then leaves me?"
His big green eyes watered up and spilled down his freckled cheeks. Eijirou could smell the despair and pain radiating off of him in waves. It hurt his heart to smell his friend like that.
"I can't even begin to explain how to deal with that. This is an all or nothing thing. You just met him too."
"I don't want more than one person. I just want one and I want to be sure. I can't even touch him without paperwork. I can't do anything without paying hefty fees. I could get thrown in jail if I get him pregnant and I don't have the correct paperwork."
Eijirou hadn't realized how hard it was. Izuku never shared those kind of issues before. The world was unfair to omegas and even to some betas but undetermined people seemed to get treated like they were a disease that would infect everyone.
"I can smell you two belong together."
Izuku stared at him.
"You can smell it?"
"You two smell so weird but it's not a bad weird. The smell is something else. I never smelled it before but there is something there between you two. It's just something to think about. It's not a race to the finish line. You have all the time in the world."
"I don't know if I do. He's twenty three. They usually leave omegas alone until they're twenty seven then they start going after them to have children. I'm not sure what they will do to him."
"He's waiting for someone too then. Most omegas are usually mated off by seventeen. I don't know him or his life but it seems his family wasn't into traditional rules."
"He made it seem like that."
Silence passed for a short time. There was tension in the air and Eijirou was the only one who could smell it. He chewed on his lip for a moment before sighing.
"I have to confess something. I didn't tell Dabi yet but I plan too."
Izuku glanced at his friend.
"I liked you since the moment you invited me into your room and made me a grilled cheese sandwich with a tomato. The smell coming off of you was so wonderful I thought you were the only one I could care about. You weren't old enough legally for me to ask out so I kept it to myself. I ended up telling Professor Yagi and he said it wasn't his place to tell you. When you told me you were going to graduate, I still didn't tell you. It hurt me when I walked into your empty room. I had missed you by an hour."
His jungle colored eyes were wide with shock.
"I- I had no idea. I'm so sorry."
"I guess I only feel bad for you because you can't smell the differences in everyone. I was throwing it off on you by accident sometimes I think. I feel like that was why no one would talk to you. It makes me feel guilty."
He busted up laughing with tears rolling down his freckled cheeks. He wasn't mad. How he could be mad? Everyone seemed wary of Izuku through his whole life.
"Actually, it's an honor you liked me. I wish I hadn't been so damn dense. Of course Dad wouldn't tell me. Perhaps I should've worn a sign that said I can't smell right."
The red headed alpha laughed.
"I'm glad you aren't upset."
Izuku grinned and wiped his face.
"Your friends are great. You belong right in the middle. I'm glad you found your happy place."
"I hope you fit in it too."
"I do too," the red headed alpha said with a grin, "It doesn't bother that I won't have any kids. If Dabi and I bond, we can be those really cool uncles."
He nodded.
"So damn true. You would make a great uncle."

Tomura paced his room, chewing on his thumbs thinking. He was surprised his hair wasn't smoking yet. Bits and pieces of last night came flooding back piece by piece. He realized he had confessed the biggest issue in his life. One of the few things that emotionally damaged him enough from wanting to get close to other people. It ate at him constantly and he felt sick about it.
I had promised to keep it a secret. I am fucking terrible. I just wanted him to know what he was getting into.
He walked over to his bed and dropped down to his knees. He reached under his bed to grab the shoe box.
It was a secret thing he kept from everyone else. Kurogiri was the one person in his life who was like a father to him and he always took pictures. The man took pictures all the time and he gave Tomura the box when the whole thing came to light he had gotten his best friend pregnant. He was unaware he had until that night when Dabi drowned himself in liquor and told him off.
Tomura would've mated him if Dabi wanted. They could've raised that baby together and live with Kurogiri. The man could've taught them how to do everything and taken them to parenting classes. Tomura would've done anything for him and he would've prevented the whole thing if he knew exactly how fertile he was. Not a lot of omegas could get other ones pregnant.
He opened it up and looked inside. There were pictures of Tomura as a black haired kid. He was happy all the time once Kurogiri came into his life. The purple haired man with piercing yellow eyes was the sweetest man alive. It was funny how alike him and Izuku was.
They had people who weren't related by blood but they were the biggest thing in their lives that kept them steady and on the right path. They were odd balls in society and had hang ups but at least Izuku was trying to push forward. Tomura continued to allow his past and insecurities to be the driver instead of himself.
The pictures always made him feel better whenever he saw them. Kurogiri was always busy. He worked at a paper company. He started there when Tomura moved out to be with Dabi. The omega felt horribly guilty but the man insisted it was fine. He wanted him to pursue his own life and to do what he wanted.
What Tomura didn't want was be strapped to some ignorant alpha who thought he was the best and better than everyone else. He wanted someone more on his level. Someone who didn't puff out their chest and have dick measuring contests. Someone who didn't want more than one omega in their life. Someone who would worship the ground he walked on and he would do the same for them.
But now…. He was struggling.
His blood colored eyes watered with the thoughts going through his head.
No amount of therapy would help him now. He should've went years ago but betas and omegas didn't dominate the therapy world. He didn't wanna hear shit from the mouth of an alpha. Few were like Shouta and Eijirou. Not a single one of those asshole were like Izuku.
He went through more of the pictures in the box feeling the pain lift off his heart but it would be temporary like everything else in his life.

Izuku came home to see Dabi sitting at the kitchen table. He was reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets while sipping on a tall glass of orange juice.
"Can I talk to you?" he asked stepping forward.
The omega arched an eyebrow but nodded. Izuku sat down across from him.
"Tomura told me…. the secret between you two."
His bright blue eyes suddenly darkened then a weird, fearful expression appeared on his face.
"I'm not mad or judging you. I'm just…. I'm sorry. I wish I could help fix things. If I could produce a kid for you I would."
Sorrow overtook Dabi's emotions and tears overflowed from his eyes quickly and streamed down his face. The omega got up, walked around to Izuku's side and pulled him out of his seat in a rib crushing hug.
"Thank you so much but there isn't anything anyone can do to help me," he whispered, "I got an infection that rendered me…. this way."
"I'm sorry things didn't work out," Izuku said quietly, "I wish things would have been different."
"I hope this um…. doesn't change your opinion of me or of Tomura," he whispered hoarsely.
"It doesn't. You're both perfect omegas."
Dabi broke down sobbing into his wild green hair. Neither the omega or Izuku knew Tomura was standing at the bottom of the stairs watching. He felt the emotion in the open floor plan area and it was heavy. It hurt so much for him to see it. He didn't know why either one of them was crying but it made him hurt too.
"Eijirou…. he said you two would be the cool uncles. I believe that."
Dabi started laughing through his crying. His whole body shook with laughter making Izuku laugh too.
"He said that?" Dabi asked.
"Yup. I think he likes you a lot."
"Thank god. I thought I was so unlovable."
"You aren't."
Dabi took a step back, staring at the freckled man before him.
"I wanna scent you. Like, um family does. If that's ok. It might alter your smell a little bit."
"Ok. I don't know how though. Mom never did it with me."
"That bitch."
Izuku snorted before giggling like a child. Dabi held up his wrists.
"Where's your scent glands?"
Izuku turned a deep pink color.
"Um, on my neck and my thighs."
Dabi's eyes widened, "That's unexpected. I'll scent your neck then."
Izuku agreed. He closed his eyes as he felt Dabi rub his wrists on his neck. In a sudden moment, the sweetest smell of mint filled his nostrils and it felt like home. A few tears escaped his closed eyes and he smiled softly. Dabi embraced him again left out a slow sigh of contentment. The two of them separated to see Tomura standing there.
A goofy grin appeared on Dabi's face and he took off sprinting towards Tomura. Once he realized what was going on, he tried to run but the black haired omega was faster from all the working out he did and tackle him to the ground. He started tickling him relentlessly making Izuku laugh.
Once he got Tomura pinned down, he held out his wrists. He let out a sigh and did the same thing. The two omegas rubbed their scent glands together with content smiles on their faces.
He was glad they were still friends. It made him feel some kind of way.
He felt at home.
