Midoriya's P.O.V.

I felt his hot tongue enter my mouth, kissing with me with a passion, a fire, that just captivated my whole being. It was like he was devouring me in the best way. He pulled away, just for a second leaving a fiery path of kisses and bites as he made his way now my chin and to my neck. He asked me if I wanted him. Oh, how bad did I want him! My lips parted into a silent extasy filled scream as he entered me. It was euphoric. Blissful. Exhilarating. It was everything.

"Kacchan."

My eyes shot open. Kacchan? I struggled to catch my breath. That was… intense. I sat up in bed, wiping the cold sweat from my forehead and neck. I just had a sex dream about Kacchan. A powerful one. The way he made me call out his name, the way he aggressively wanted me. It made me shiver. I looked down at Todoroki sleeping next to me. He didn't seem phased by the utter turmoil going on next to him. He's always so placid when he sleeps. Like it's the only time he's truly at peace. I thought it best not to wake him and quietly slipped out of my room. I'll make him breakfast, give myself a chance to calm down.

So, I went downstairs in my pajamas, just trying to get some air. That dream really shook me up. I shouldn't be dreaming about Kacchan, in any context, especially not on days like today. Walking into the kitchen I was met by Iida who was also fixing breakfast. It was early, I'm not surprised he was the only one there.

"Good morning Iida."

"Oh good morning Midoriya, how are you today?" I swallowed, not great in all honesty.

"I'm alright, how are you?"

"Oh I'm doing just fine, getting an early start so I can hopefully have the opportunity to see Inasa tonight." He said cheerfully, taking a sip of his coffee.

"How's that going?" I asked, getting some tea started then looking into fridge to see what I could make my boyfriend.

"Really well actually. I enjoy his company a lot." I was tempted to ask him for advice about my dream, or why Kacchan has been making his way into my thoughts lately, but… Iida's not exactly terribly open about stuff like that. I doubt he would approve of having dark thoughts, especially ones outside of my relationship. "How are you and Todoroki doing?"

"We're ummm… we're actually meeting each other's mothers today."

"Really?"

I nodded. "We've been planning it for a little while actually. We're gonna catch the train and visit his mom in the hospital, then on the way back we're gonna stay the night and have dinner with my mom."

"Are you nervous?"

"A little… It's sort of a big deal. His mom means a lot to him, she's the most important person in his life. And I guess… so is mine. It's a big day." I said letting out a breath. It's a monumental day in our relationship, yet here I am having sex dreams about Kacchan. Maybe it's just stress.

"Just be yourself Midoriya, I'm sure she'll love you."

"Have you met Inasa's parents yet?"

"I have. They seemed to nearly purr with approval and praise of our relationship." He said with a warm smile. "He hasn't met my family yet, perhaps over winter break."

I nodded, Iida's a strong alpha that's smart and from a good family, a parent's dream really. I know my mom will love Todoroki, but… will his mom love me? I never really knew my dad, was born quirkless… Shoto has a pedigree, his dad is now the number one hero. What if I'm not good enough? Never mind that right now, I need to just chill out. "That sounds great Iida."

"Indeed." I started making my boyfriend and I some breakfast, eggs, some turkey bacon, spinach, tomatoes and some tea. Todoroki likes to keep it healthy, and although I prefer something more on the sweet side, I'm picking up some really good habits from him. He is extremely dedicated to being the best hero he can be. Speaking of dedication to the profession, Kirishima and Kacchan walked in as I was finishing up. They were all sweaty, like they had just been on a run. I've heard they run five miles every day before school, lift weights after school. Their dedication is really impressive.

"Morning guys." Kirishima said kindly. Kacchan said nothing, walking behind me and boiling some eggs for breakfast.

"Good morning Kirishima, good morning Kacchan." I said kindly. Kacchan growled but said nothing more to me.

"You're up early this morning." Eijiro commented, wiping his face on his shirt. "Busy day?"

"A little. Todoroki and I are meeting each other's mom's today." I said with a smile to Kirishima. I was suddenly surprised by an explosion behind me. I looked to my right and Iida was covered in Kacchan's boiled egg, I was absolutely terrified to look at Kacchan in all honestly. Eijiro looked at me eyes wide and in shock. I'm not totally sure what just happened, but the vibe of the whole room just changed.

"I should uh… go wash up." Iida mumbled.

"Yeah I should get going too." I squeaked grabbing the plates I made and nearly running out of the room. I don't know why Kacchan exploded like that but… things between us have certainly gotten more… volatile lately. And then that dream this morning. I'm gonna just… keep my distance from Kacchan for a while. I walked back to my room and opened the door. Todoroki was still asleep. Part of me didn't want to wake him, he seemed just so content. I placed the plates on my desk and crawled back into bed with him, wrapping my arms around him and snuggling into his chest. He put his hand in my hair, pulling me closer.

"Mmmm… good morning." His voice is always so groggy and raspy in the morning, I find it to be oh so very sexy.

"Good morning. How did you sleep?"

"I always sleep well when I'm next to you." He said matter of factly. I know he was just merely stating facts, but it still made me blush. Todoroki has a way of just saying how he feels, it's not full of emotion, but it is also the absolute truth. I love that about him. That transparency. It's really a special quality he has. "Is that breakfast I smell?"

"Made it special for you." I said reaching over and handing him a plate, straddling him as I did.

"Thank you Midoriya, this is really nice of you." I blushed again, grabbing my plate too then getting off of him and eating breakfast in bed with my boyfriend. We had some light conversation over breakfast, mostly talking about logistics for the day and how nervous we both were. I think it's a step we're ready to take. After breakfast we made our way to the showers and then got ready for the day. We caught the train to the hospital and went inside. I was so nervous I felt like I was shaking. I'm about to meet Todoroki's mom. His mom! I mean… they only recently reconnected… she was the one who gave him his scar… He doesn't blame her at all for it and loves her with everything he has. There's just… a lot of history there. A lot of feelings. I need her to like me. There's almost no chance his father will, with my connection to All Might and all. She's the only chance I have.

"Don't be nervous." He said calmly as we walked into the hospital.

"How can I not be nervous? I'm meeting your mom!" he squeezed my hand.

"She's going to love you just as much as I do." There's that incredibly sweet but matter of fact statement of his. I took a deep breath and let it calm me. Okay, okay, I can do this. I nodded and we took the elevator to her floor.

"Shoto Todoroki and Izuku Midoriya here to see Rei Todoroki." My boyfriend said calmly as we walked up to the nurses' station.

"You brought your boyfriend with you today Shoto? Rei told us all that you might." The head nurse commented.

"She's been real excited all week." Another nurse said.

"She's ready for you, You two can go ahead and head back." Todoroki smiled and bowed, I did as well, then he led me down the hallway.

"Just breathe Izuku."

"Just breathe, right." He squeezed my hand once more and knocked on the hospital door. A small omega woman answered. She was absolutely beautiful. Light hair, dark eyes, and just so pretty. Wow. Shoto looks just like her. No wonder he's so good looking.

"Shoto."

"Mom." I've never heard such softness in Todoroki's voice before. He hugged her like she was a delicate rose and she hugged him tightly, getting on her toes to give him a kiss on the cheek. I wouldn't say that Todoroki is hard, he's just… not always the softest. He's not much for showing emotion but with his mom, it's like all of his walls just melt away. He's completely open and vulnerable to her.

"And who is this Shoto?" She said once she finished hugging him, giving me a warm smile. I bowed, a smile on my face as well.

"Mom this is my boyfriend, Izuku Midoriya." He said equally as warm.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Todoroki." I said extending my hand to her. Her hands were freezing! Several degrees colder to my boyfriend's right side, which on my heats is great, but nearly gives me frostbite any other time. How is she able to regulate her body temperature, keep it high enough to stay alive?

"It's a pleasure to meet you too Izuku. Shoto can't seem to stop talking about you during our phone calls." She gushed. I looked up at my boyfriend and he looked away sharply, but not before I saw pink dusting his cheeks. "He says you're gonna be a great hero one day, probably better than All Might." That's when I felt my cheeks turn bright red.

"Oh well I don't know about that… Todoroki… I mean Shoto is going to be amazing, really probably right out of high school he'll break the top ten ranking." I muttered softly. Wow I'm nervous. My shoes suddenly became very interesting.

"Shoto has always been quite gifted." She squeezed her son's arm. "But what matters more to me is that he follows his heart, pursues things that he really wants. Like pursuing the very handsome omega in front of me." She said with a shy wink. And now both of us were thoroughly embarrassed.

"Mom." Shoto said shyly.

"It's wonderful finally seeing you happy Shoto."

My boyfriend looked down, "If you are allowed, we thought we would take you for a walk, there is a quaint ice cream shop across the street if you'd like."

"Ice cream is one of my favorite desserts." She said to me softly.

"Mine too!" I smiled right back.

"Well let's go then!" She said kindly, taking my hand and walking out with me. My boyfriend followed us, making sure all the paperwork was taken care of and she was properly signed out as his mom and I just chit chatted and exited the hospital. We walked around the hospital a few times just talking and learning more about each other. His mother was sweet and kind, she loves her children very much and misses each of them dearly. They don't talk about Endeavor, almost like he doesn't exist, and if he is referred to, I noticed it's always that man or the alpha. Never by name and barely at all. There's a lot of bad blood there. You can just tell. Past that she was very positive, listened to every word we said and seemed really excited for her son. We walked to the ice cream shop and she sent Shoto inside to order and get the ice cream for us so she and I could talk.

"I'm really glad you're dating my son Izuku."

My jaw dropped, "Really, you are?"

She nodded, "Whenever Shoto talks about you, I can hear it in his voice how much he cares. I've never seen that in him before. I think for the first time in his life he's actually happy. I thought that man and I ruined Shoto, made him… incapable of just being normal, having things like friends… relationships."

I didn't know what to say. Shoto doesn't talk much about his childhood, and when he does… it's mostly about his hatred for his father. "Shoto told me he was his father's masterpiece."

She leaned back as if she was remembering. "Shoto is the youngest of my four children, the only one to inherit both my quirk and his father's. The only alpha as well. Because of that… Enji isolated him from his siblings, forced him to train his quirk every day, abused him. He never really learned how to interact with others, the only emotion he knew was his father's anger. He became more and more like him every day. It scared me, that's why… I did what I did. That was so many years ago, then out of the blue, my son comes to see me, I thought he'd never forgive me, and even more he comes to ask for my forgiveness. He had changed, he was… no longer like his father, and I've seen him become less and less like him now more than ever. That's because of you. You're… changing his life Izuku. I owe you everything."

"Mrs. Todoroki… I-"

"Just… please don't break his heart. I fear he might go right back to the way he was and worse if you did."

"I promise. I really care about him a lot. He's changing my life too." I said with a warm smile and she smiled back. A few minutes later my boyfriend came back with ice cream. We ate over happy conversation then walked his mother back to the hospital. After saying our goodbyes we headed back to the train to take it to my mom's house. On the ride over Todoroki fell asleep on my shoulder while holding my hand. I thought back to my conversation with his mom. The fact that he's been through so much in his life and still has the ability to love. To love me. I felt so honored. I don't ever want to hurt him. I don't ever want him to go back to the way he was. I love him too much to anyway.

Todoroki's P.O.V.

"Hey Shoto, we're here." Izuku's voice woke me up, his bright smile was the perfect thing to see after opening my eyes from a snooze.

"Oh." I said embarrassed, standing up.

"You can sleep almost any where can't you?" He said with a blush.

"It's not hard next to you. You make me feel comfortable and safe." I replied as we exited the train. His blush deepened and he muttered directions to get to his house. I happily followed him, holding his hand as he talked about all the places he had memories of as a child. I love listening to him talk, I love seeing his face light up, it's the most beautiful sight in the whole world. I enjoyed him walking me through the streets of his neighborhood and as we were about to come upon his apartment complex we came to a park.

"Kacchan and I used to play there together all the time. We would slide down the slide, well Kacchan would push me down, we'd build sandcastles, well that mostly ended in him throwing sand in my face, but we'd also swing on the swings, humm… I guess Kacchan used to push me off of those too."

"It seems Katsuki was quite the bully." I observed.
"He's gotten better…"

"Has he?" I asked as I walked towards the swings.

"Well umm… sorta."

I looked at the swings, pushing it lightly. "How do they work?"

Izuku's beautiful green eyes got wide. "You've never been on a swing before?"

"I've never been on a playground before." I admitted, he only blushed.

"Here sit down, let me show you." I sat in the seat, holding onto the metal links that came from above. "Now pull your legs up, straight when you go forward, bend them when you go back okay? I'm gonna push you." He giggled.

"Okay." I followed his instructions and he pushed me as I went forward, making me go higher. I understood the physics of it sure… but…. As I swung back and forth, I looked at Midoriya's face. It was lit up in the brightest smile, so beautiful. It made me smile and I just focused on the feeling. This was actually fun. Very fun. I felt myself laugh as I swung, and he soon ran over to the one beside me and joined in. I don't know what it was, but swinging with Midoriya, this may have been the most fun I've ever had in my entire life. It was… bliss. Eventually we had to stop as it was time to go to his mother's house. He helped me to stop and I pulled him close.

"That was really fun." I smiled, kissing his forehead.

"It may have been the most fun I've ever had on these swings." He chuckled.

"Thank you Midoriya… I'm grateful to have you in my life." He blushed really hard, hugging me tightly. That small little thing, swinging on equipment made for children, giving me a taste of the childhood I never had. He brings so much joy into my life. I never thought I would have something like this. I wasn't even sure I wanted it. But now I can't imagine my life without it.

"I love you."

"I love you too. Let's go meet your mother." He nodded, taking my hand and walking across the street to his apartment complex. We walked up the stairs and the nerves hit me. I know I told Midoriya not to be nervous when he met his mother, but that's because he's such a ball of sunshine, everyone can't help but love him. Me on the other hand.
"Mom, I'm home." He called, using his key to unlock the door.

"Oh my baby! You're here! I missed you so much! Oh my darling!" A beautiful green haired beta came out from the kitchen, running over and covering Izuku in hugs and kisses. She began to cry, just like Midoriya, cries when he's happy, sad, hungry… I find it adorable. Their embrace was completely over the top, both so happy crying tears as though they hadn't seen each other in years, it's only been a few weeks hadn't it? My father has… never hugged me.

"Mom, mom, this is my boyfriend. This is Shoto Todoroki." He said excitedly, jumping up and down, holding his mom's hand and pulling her towards me. She looked up at me, her motion stopping, staring at me. I froze. Come on, Shoto, get it together.

"Hello ma'am, it's a pleasure to meet you." I said extending my hand. She didn't move, just looking up in me in shock, tears coming to her eyes once more. Oh no. Did I already do something wrong? Without warning she launched herself at me, hugging me tightly and crying into my chest. It was, actually… really nice. I deeply enjoyed her motherly embrace, relaxed into it.

"Izuku, he's so handsome, such a strong alpha! So beautiful! I can't believe my baby is dating someone so strong!" She started muttering more and more praise, just like her son tends to mutter. I blushed looking at my boyfriend who was super embarrassed.

"Mom, you're uh crushing him, this is super embarrassing. Mom let him go." She doesn't have to; I actually really like this.

"It's fine Izuku, not a problem at all." I said as his mom squeezed me even harder.

"You are just the sweetest alpha. Come on Shoto, here I'll take your shoes, here are some slippers for you. I'm almost done cooking dinner, Izuku told me you like cold soba? I'm making it from scratch, I hope you'll like it." She chatted, basically taking my shoes off for me and putting the slippers on. Wow, she's really great.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Midoriya, do you need any help in the kitchen?"

"A grateful alpha that asks to help out? Izuku, you need to keep this one!"

"Mom." So cute when he's embarrassed. They had some kind of banter, then his mom disappeared into the kitchen and Izuku took my hand once again, showing me around the apartment and his room.

"It isn't much, but it's home. Sorry about my mom."

"She's perfect." No wonder Izuku is so incredible. We walked into his room and it seemed he had held back on the All Might decorations in his room at the dorms. My boyfriend the fan boy I suppose. We came back to his mother and I helped her out in the kitchen.

"I've never seen an alpha so calm, so helpful, and what a good cook!" She praised.

"I really enjoy cooking ma'am."

"Todoroki's the best cook, I really love it when he cooks for me."

"He cooks for you?"

"When we have time, yes." I replied. His mother made eyes at Izuku, but I wasn't sure the context of them was. I'm not great at reading facial cues. We sat down to eat and both of the Midoriya's eyes just sparkled at me. I tried to smile back but it was just sort of awkward for me. We began talking about school, both academically and heroically. I can't seem to beat Katsuki or Izuku academically, no matter how much I study. The official hero rankings for our class will come out at the end of our third semester after the sports fest. There have been rumors that Izuku and I are in the top three along with Bakugo, but those are just rumors. We talked further, it was good until she asked me a question I wasn't completely prepared for.

"You are just so handsome Shoto, I've never seen someone so perfect with half their features different from the other, did you inherit that?"

"Mom, that's too personal." Izuku tried to say. Well… at least she didn't ask about my scar.

I swallowed. "It's called heterochromia indium, the reason my eyes are two different colors. As for the rest of my body, it's actually a genetic anomaly by dad was hoping all his children would inherit in their creation called chimerism. The cells on the right side of my body are completely different than the ones on my left."

"Wow, that's so interesting, and amazing! You are so special." So much praise and complements, just like her son. Usually the next question is about my dad creating me, or something about my quirk. But she just admired, didn't treat me any different. That's really something incredible. Something I love about Izuku, and now both the Midoriya's.

"Thank you Ma'am."

"Is it hard to manage? Having such different quirks and all?" No one's ever asked me that, been concerned about… me personally.

"It can be. I have to be careful that my right side doesn't get too cold or my left too hot. I don't know if you saw the sports festival, but I well… got so cold my body was starting to freeze up and break down." I blushed at the memory. "Izuku should have won that fight."

"You nearly killed my son. I was so worried the whole time!" She burst into tears.

"Mom!"

"I assure you Ms. Midoriya, Izuku can more than take care of himself. And if ever he can't, I promise you, I will always be there to protect him. I would never let him die." Her eyes filled with tears and she just cried. I looked at my boyfriend and he had tears in his eyes too. What did I say? I was merely stating facts.

"I like him Izuku." She blushed.

"I like him too."
