Chapter 5: 1 Month, 2 Sparks, 3 Desires

When the leaves started to change colors and the temperature dropped, the kids that left campus to go see their families for the holidays started to return. It's been 3 weeks since Vito and Ari started working at the campus. Kids went and checked out the new greenhouse, asking lots of questions and some asked if they could help by starting a gardening club, which Ari agreed to. Vito got swarmed for the first few days by kids, many found out about the cook off that Vito had with Lunch Rush and wanted to ask him questions. Some were intimidated by how he looked while some were fascinated and some….Some formed crushes. Some kids even found out about Vito's training with Mr. Aizawa after school hours.

"So Vito, are you aiming to be a hero too?" One student asked.

"No, I just want to be able to protect you students." Vito smiled as he scuffed up a kid's hair.

"The training Mr. Aizawa is making you do, sure is difficult." Another student said, walking beside Vito.

"Yes it is, but it will benefit me for the future. I'm very behind compared to you kids with using my quirk." Vito explained.

"What do you mean, Vito?" A girl asked.

"Where I grew up, it was looked down upon to use my power. That's all, but it's been a lot of fun training with you kids. You amaze me every time." Vito commented just before they parted ways. Vito was walking home when he noticed Toshinori was just leaving for a run. "Hey, All Might!" Vito yelled as he ran over to catch him.

"Oh, hey Vito. Back from training already?" Toshinori said as he stopped jogging and turned towards Vito.

"Yeah, Mr. Aizawa and those kids are incredible." Vito huffs from running. "This school really is amazing."

"Yeah, it is. I was just about to head out for a quick jog before dinner. I've prepared everything upstairs, it just needs to be cooked. I should only be about 30 mins or so. You can start without me if you're hungry from training." Toshinori said just as he was about to start jogging again.

"Alright, I'll get it started." Vito said as Toshinori left. "I know he's headed to the greenhouse but I'm too tired to run over there and I need a shower." Vito said slumped over and walked inside. Toshinori indeed went down towards the greenhouse and found no one around. He was disappointed, this was his new routine and always ended up getting disappointed when Ari wasn't there. They cleared some trees out of the way so the greenhouse had a clear view of the ocean, Toshinori went towards the cliff and took a seat on the ground, looking at the view.

He sighed and thought to himself "Why do I always get so disappointed when she's not here." Toshinori thought to himself, remembering her smile and how recently she has been showing him tricks and tips on gardening. Remembering made him blush. "Shit…."

Back at the apartment, Vito just finished his shower and turned on the oven to put dinner in. As it preheated, he got a message from Toshinori.

TO: Vito

FROM: All Might

All Might: Omw

Vito: See you soon.

Vito was getting frustrated with himself and remembered he had some liquor in the closet that was left over from the beach day a few weeks ago. He was about to grab it when the front door opened, which caused Vito to back out of having a drink.

"Hey, I'm home." Toshinori said as he sat down and took his shoes off.

"Welcome back. How was your run?" Vito asked, checking on the oven and placing the dish into it.

"Was ok, thinking I might have to go grab my warmer jogging clothes from storage late, it's getting chilly out there." He muttered to himself as he hung his jogging sweater.

"Just don't bring up every box from your storage unit again." Vito giggled as he started to work on a salad for dinner. "By the way All Might, I noticed you gained some weight." Vito commented.

"Hmm? Oh yeah, guess the food you've been feeding me is doing the job haha." Toshinori laughed. "I'm just gonna hop into the shower real quick. Shouldn't take too long." Toshinori said as he walked to the bathroom and closed the door.

"Now where have I heard that before?" Vito asks himself, he shrugs and continues to make his salad. "Hopefully he doesn't take as long." At that moment, Vito got a text from Doctor Rosa.

TO: Vito

From: Rosa

Rosa: Hey I need you to come in tomorrow. We need to talk.

Vito: Alright, what about?

Rosa: Due to the recent discovery of your family history, we have delayed the tests up until now.

Vito: Right….

Rosa: We received all of the files regarding your family and their history a few weeks ago. After going though some of the files, I have some questions. Maybe a test or 2 tomorrow but nothing too much.

Vito: Alright, I have training after school hours so I'll come around noon tomorrow. If that works for you.

Rosa: Splendid, I look forward to seeing you again.

Vito: Please no more people ganging up on me, I'll behave, I promise

Rosa: No need to worry, it'll be just us tomorrow

Vito: Alright, have a goodnight.

Rosa: Goodnight.

"Who's messaging you so late?" Toshinori asked as he was drying his hair. He wore an All Might t-shirt and sweatpants.

"Oh, uh. One of the students I've been training with wants to meet up in the cafeteria for lunch tomorrow. I figured it wouldn't hurt." Vito answered.

"Nice, glad you're making more friends." Toshinori said as he took a seat at the table. "There aren't many staff members here that are closer to your age are there?" Toshinori asked.

"I honestly haven't met or seen anyone that's closer to my age yet. But I prefer my friends to be older anyways, I get along with them better." Vito explained as he set the timer on the oven. "The kids here are actually pretty nice and entertaining. I don't normally like kids per say."

"You get along so well with them, I wouldn't have guessed you're not a fan of kids." Toshinori was shocked at Vito's comment.

"Ha ha yeah, my mom always said that too. She always said I would make a good parent one day." Vito replied. "Don't get me wrong, I've thought about having kids of my own or adopting in the future but…..I've put that on hold for now." Toshinori tilted his head.

"Why? You're a handsome young man, I'm sure there are plenty of girls out there for you to pick from." Toshinori commented.

"Let me ask you this then. Why are you still single? Because you're All Might? Because everyone around you is a fan and you don't want to date a fan…Do you." Vito stabbed back, clearly triggered.

"I….Uh…." Toshinori looked away from Vito and down the floor. "Sorry…I didn't know this subject was a trigger for you…But honestly, I'm not sure why I'm single…When I was All Might, I was too busy with work to even think about a relationship." Toshinori stood up and walked into the kitchen. "But, you're also right. About everyone being a fan. It's hard to find someone who doesn't know who I am and just treats me like a normal human being." Vito sighed after hearing Toshinori's explanation, Toshinori was busy washing some dishes when Vito came up behind him and gave him a hug.

"Realistically, I guess we both are in the same boat. Sorry I shouldn't have snapped at you like that." Vito let go of Toshinori as he turned to face him. "I haven't felt a connection with anyone in such a long time. So if you feel a spark All Might, don't let it fall through your fingers. Grasp it in your hand and give it everything you got, no matter how awkward you may feel." Vito tried to inspire Toshinori with his words. Toshinori just leaned back onto the counter and looked away from Vito, his cheeks getting red. Vito took a step back, surprised at Toshinori's reaction. "Oh crap! That's cute!" Vito leaned against the table and started to blush because of Toshinori's expression. Then the beeper went off on the oven, catching them both off guard, spooking them. "Ah! Dinners done! Let me get it out of the oven." Vito said grabbing the oven mitts from the counter, Toshinori moved out of the way as Vito pulled open the oven.

"I'll…..I'll be right back." Toshinori walked out of the kitchen, going into his room, closing the door behind him. Vito didn't say a word and just set the table as he waited for Toshinori to come out of his room. Vito waited, and waited, and waited but Toshinori never came out of his room. Vito ended up falling asleep at the table and awoke several hours later to the sound of crying. He was immediately alarmed and quickly got up, following the sound of crying to Toshinori's door. Vito hesitated at Toshinori's door, unsure if he should knock or just leave him alone when all of the sudden the door opened and there stood Toshinori, rubbing his eyes. "Oh….Sorry….Did I-" Vito hugged Toshinori so quickly, they both fell onto the floor. As Toshinori opened his eyes, Vito was holding his head against his shoulder.

"Sorry…Didn't want your head to hit the floor." Vito said on top of Toshinori. After letting go of Toshinori's head, Vito sat on his legs, not allowing him to get up. Toshinori began to tear up again, using his arm to hide his face. Vito noticed a picture laying on Toshinori's bed, a picture of Toshinori and Nana. "Did…..Did our conversation upset you." Vito asked.

"Get off me please…." Toshinori begged, still using his arm to cover his face. Vito grabbed his arms and pulled them away from Toshinori's face. Toshinori tried to look away but just started to tear up all over again, Vito pulled Toshinori towards him and gave this massive man the deepest hug, Vito started to stroke Toshinori's head just as he started to tear up too.

"Everything will be ok….Please don't cry." Vito said before looking back at Toshinori's face with tears. "The strongest heroes always smile right?" Vito said with a forced smile and tears running down his face. Toshinori just broke into tears, crying as he held him. As the night went on and Toshinori calmed down, Vito put him to bed and kept an eye on him till early morning, making sure he was ok before he finally fell asleep next to Toshinori.

The sun shone through a crack in the curtains of Toshinori's room, shining directly into his eye. As he opened his eyes, Toshinori noticed someone next to him in his bed. Vito was lying next to him, sleeping peacefully with clear bags under his eyes. "He must have been watching over me all night." Toshinori smiled looking at the sleeping man next to him. "He sure does have a gentle heart." Toshinori quietly got out of bed and changed in the bathroom into his jogging clothes. "I don't really remember what happened after dinner last night." Toshinori thought to himself just as he turned the corner to see dinner on the table, plates set, dinner untouched, the salad wilted. "Did he not eat last night?" Toshinori looked back towards his room to a sleeping Vito. Toshinori frowned as he walked over to his door and closed it quietly. He went for his jog and decided not to go down to the greenhouse like he normally did. Toshinori was lost in thought, when he finished his run, he noticed his bedroom door was open and the shower was running. "Guess he's awake." Toshinori blushed as he remembered what happened last night. Vito exited the bathroom just as Toshinori ran straight into his bedroom and slammed the door. Vito just stood there, super confused about what just occurred. Vito got ready and left for work while Toshinori was still hiding in his room. He changed into his suit and slowly left his room, making sure the coast was clear. After putting his shoes on, he cracked the front door open to see if Vito was in the hall when a hand forcefully opened the door.

"What the hell are you doing?" It was Aizawa, looking as grumpy as ever.

"Oh! Uh! Good morning Aizawa! What brings you here so early in the morning?" Toshinori frantically asked. Aizawa held up his phone which showed a text from Vito, asking Aizawa to check up on All Might and make sure he makes it to work this morning.

"You look like hell, did you even take a shower this morning?" Aizawa asked, waving his hand in front of his face.

"I didn't have time this morning." Toshinori said, looking ashamed.

"Class is at the gym today, why don't you take a shower there while me and Ectoplasm watch the kids." Aizawa suggested. "Bring a change of clothes too."

"R-right. Give me a minute." Toshinori quickly ran to his room, grabbing a bag that had spare clothes in it. As Aizawa and Toshinori made their way to the gym where Cementoss was already working on a new terrain for the kids, Vito caught Toshinori's eye, he was heading to the gym next door. Mina and Toru were chatting while passing Toshinori as he stood there looking over towards Vito.

"Oh My God! That new maintenance guy is so hot!" Mina said, excitedly.

"I know! When he's working outside, I can't help but watch! The sweat rolling off his muscular body! His dark colored skin glistened in the sunlight!" Toru said. Toshinori turned towards the class that was making their way over to the gym just as Midoriya ran over to him.

"Good morning All Might!" Midoriya said, waving.

"Ah, good morning young Midoriya. How was your time off school?" Toshinori asked with a smile.

"It was great! Mom and I cried a lot the first couple days, ha ha ha." Midoriya giggled. "But then most of the class got together and we decided to go check out a new shopping area near where I live."

"I'm glad you had some time to finally relax and enjoy yourself." Toshinori said, placing his hand on his shoulder.

"What about you? Did you do anything exciting, All Might?" Midoriya asked just as Aizawa yelled for everyone to hurry up and get into the gym.

"Class is about to start! Any small chit chat can wait!" Aizawa yelled towards Toshinori and Midoriya.

"Right, sorry Mr. Aizawa!" Midoriya said as he rushed in. Toshinori looked back at the gym Vito went into before making his way to the showers. After a long first period, the lunch bell finally rang. Everyone from Class 1A were gathered in a group, chatting about what moves they are working on and what they want to eat today.

"Your class is quite talented, Aizawa." Ectoplasm said. "It won't be much longer until they achieve their second ultimate move."

"They still need a lot of work. Some are adjusting quicker than others." Aizawa commented just as Toshinori approached them.

"I'll see you guys later, I have to go do some paperwork at the office." Toshinori said as he waved goodbye to Aizawa and Ectoplasm. As Toshinori made his way to the office, he spotted Vito going into an elevator. "I didn't know we had an elevator?" He said, noticing that there was a badge scanner on it. "Hmm…That's unusual…Maybe the elevator leads to where the heating system is for the school?" Toshinori thought.

As the elevator doors opened for Vito, he could see Doctor Rosa in his office. His office was a mess, filled with boxes upon boxes of files. *Knock*Knock* Vito knocked on Doctor Rosa's door as he peeked his head in. "I'm here…..You uh….Needed to speak to me about something?"

"Ah! Vito! Please come in and take a seat!" Doctor Rosa said excitedly. "I received all the files from Canada regarding your family." Doctor Rosa explained as Vito took a seat at his desk. "I wanted to talk to you regarding your history. How much do you know about them?"

"Um…..Not much really. I just know this curse gets passed down every time the family member who has it dies. Like the last person who had it before me was my father and because I'm the oldest I inherited the curse next." Vito explained. "But that's about as much as I know."

"I see…Would you like to know all of the details of your family?" Doctor Rosa asked.

"No, I'm good….I'm too distracted with other things to really care honestly." Vito said, leaning back into the chair and looking at the boxes around the room. "I can't believe all of these are just from my family."

"Yeah, this is why it took me so long to contact you. I spent the last 2 weeks reading every document…" Doctor Rosa hesitated. "You know….What your file describes and your family history is completely different from one another."

"What do you mean?" Vito asked.

"...Did your family ever tell you about Vito and how he acted before you got him?" Doctor Rosa asked.

"No….It was always hush hush, they just gave me the bare information and that was about it." Vito explained, getting concerned.

"Vito, when you let him out completely, he acts completely differently with you than any other member of your family. Now I don't know if it has something to do with Ari's quirk's or not but…..In the near future I would like to explore my theories." Doctor Rosa crossed his arms and leaned back into his chair. "I need to make a plan before we can start. You'll be staying down here for a week or 2 while I run my tests." Doctor Rosa looked at Vito. "I'll give you a week to get yourself prepared. Talk to Principal Nezu and whoever you need regarding a possible 2 week absence." Vito nodded. "I need to get back to work, you can leave." Vito got up from his chair and went to the elevator, thinking how he's going to explain a 2 week absence to Toshinori. While on his way up the elevator, he texted Principal Nezu regarding the situation. Principal Nezu told him to come up to his office after lunch since he was currently away. When Vito exits the elevator, one of the kids Vito is training with spotted him.

"Vito! Have you eaten yet?" The girl asks, surprising Vito.

"N-no, I was actually just on my way to the cafeteria to get some food." Vito explains as he leans back.

"Awesome! Let's go eat together." The girl said, wrapping her arm around Vito's and started to pull him.

"All right, all right! I'm coming." Vito grumpily said as he walked with the girl to the cafeteria.

"Let's sit here." The girl suggested taking a seat at a table.

"Sure." Vito said before taking a bite of his food, he noticed the girl was staring at him. "Is…something wrong?"

"Nope, just happy we get to eat together for once." The girl said with a big smile. "We don't get to hang out outside of training."

"Hmm…I guess you're right. I'm just so busy fixing things around campus that I don't really have time to socialize outside of work hours." Vito explained as he grabbed his drink.

"That's pretty lame, I'm sure the rest of the group would love to spend time with you too." The girl said as she took a spoonful of rice. "Even though you're just learning how to use your quirk, you always take a moment to explain things and how to do things differently to help us improve all the time." The girl smiled some more.

"It's not a problem, you kids are the future heroes of japan. If I can help at all I will." Vito explained just as the bell rang. "Looks like you have to go back to class."

"Darn it." The girl puffs her face. "You should join us for lunch in the future, Vito." The girl suggested before taking her plate and leaving Vito at the table. Vito continued to finish his food before leaving the cafeteria to go see Principal Nezu. As Vito passed the teachers office, Toshinori noticed Vito heading towards Principal Nezu's office. He peeked his head into the hallway just as Vito knocked on Principal Nezu's door and went in.

"I feel like he's following me everywhere I go..."Toshinori leans onto the wall next to the door and places a hand onto his face. "This whole situation is just way too awkward."

"Hmm? What's too awkward?" Midnight said coming around the doorway. "I sense you have some dirt under your skin, All Might. Tell Me Tell Me Tell Me!" Midnight shook Toshinori by the shoulders.

"All Right! Just stop shaking me." Toshinori gave in. "You sometimes concern me, Midnight." Midnight's face was tense and blushing with excitement. "Let's go talk in the lounge. I would like it to stay between us." Toshinori and Midnight made their way to the lounge where he explained everything that he remembers. "So…Yeah…I'm unsure how to address this situation."

"Hmm…Did he know what day it was?" Midnight asked.

"I doubt it. But he probably saw the picture on my bed, put 2 in 2 together." Toshinori leaned back into the couch. "I guess I just didn't expect him to do something like that. It completely caught me off guard."

"You're not used to someone being so affectionate to you, are you?" Midnight asked with a grin.

"Well…No but yes at the same time. I used to let the girls hug and kiss me when I was All Might. That never bothered me but this is…different…" Toshinori said, looking at the ceiling. "He's been so kind and caring towards me it's making me confused."

"Confused? In what way?" Midnight asked.

"It's hard to explain. I don't even know why I feel so confused and what it's about." Toshinori answered.

"I think I have an idea." Toshinori looked at Midnight. "After the beach incident, I noticed 2 things. 1. You clearly were freaked out over that girl who hurt herself and everyone noticed FYI." Toshinori tensed up and blushed. "And 2. It's very obvious you have mixed feelings towards Vito." Toshinori looks away from Midnight, still blushing. "Let me ask you a question, All Might. Do you prefer women or men?"

"What?!" Toshinori jumped back onto the couch, blushing even harder now.

"Oh settle down. It's just a question" Midnight said, waving Toshinori to take a seat.

"Oh…Right…I-I guess…I don't really have a preference. Never really put too much thought into it." Toshinori said, rubbing his neck and looking away from Midnight.

"Honestly, I think he has a crush on you." Midnight confessed. "No one acts like that unless there's a reason."

"Maybe…Something does seem a bit off…" Toshinori leaned his face into his hand. "How do I approach him about this, Midnight?" Toshinori asked.

"Well…If you can't say anything to his face then I would suggest sending him a text first. Just to get the awkward ball rolling." Midnight suggested as she got up. "Anyways, All Might. I have to go and get some work done. I'll see you later, ok." Midnight waved and left the room. Toshinori put his hands over his face as he leaned forward.

"What do I do….What should I do?" Toshinori asked himself, turning his head to face the window. "Maybe…I should go for a walk, straighten my head out and get some fresh air." He said as he got up, opening the lounge door just as Vito was passing through the hallway. They both looked at each other, surprised. Toshinori couldn't help but slam the door in Vito's face. Toshinori leaned against the door.

*Knock*Knock* "You alright, All Might?" Vito asked on the other side of the door. "Is….Is anyone else in the lounge with you?" Toshinori didn't answer because he was so flustered and unsure of what to do. The door handle began to turn and Toshinori tried to hold it closed. "Please, let me in. I need to speak to you….Privately. It's important." Vito said, feeling the resistance on the handle start to loosen. The door opened for Vito to an empty room, so it would appear, but Toshinori was hiding behind the door. Vito walked into the room, keeping his back facing Toshinori as the door closed. "Are you…..Mad at me? You've been acting weird all day."

"Oh…Uh…No…" Toshinori said, looking at Vito's back.

"Then what is going on? Is it something I did?" Vito asked, kneeling onto the ground.

"Ah…" Toshinori couldn't answer Vito's question. When Toshinori didn't answer, Vito sighed and looked towards the floor.

"So…it was something I did…I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. I…I went too far the other night didn't I…." Vito confessed. Toshinori ran over to Vito and kneeled beside him. Vito looked at Toshinori with tears starting to form. "I'm sorry…I know sometimes I go too far but…I couldn't help it when I saw you crying…Because…I've been there too. Losing someone special to you…Dying in front of you and you couldn't do anything to stop it." Vito began to wipe his tears. "Blaming yourself every moment, every second of every day for what happened. Asking yourself what you could have done differently." Tears poured out from Vito's eyes, unable to look at Toshinori because he was trying not to cry. Toshinori just looked at this man crumbling in front of him, all he could do was hug him.

"Please, stop talking…Or you're going to get me started." Toshinori smirked as he hugged Vito. "I appreciate what you did for me last night, Vito. I'm just not used to having someone like you in my life, caring for me the way you do." Toshinori hugged Vito harder. "I get confused and don't know how to show my gratitude." Toshinori let go, placing his hands onto Vito's shoulders and smiled.

"You helped thousands of people for decades across the world, All Might. Don't you think it's time for someone to take care of you for once?" Vito asked, looking up at Toshinori with his emerald eyes. Vito could tell that Toshinori was unsure on how he felt about his question. "Can you at least let me try to take care of you? It's only fair isn't it?" Toshinori sat down on his legs and looked at Vito, nodding slightly in agreement. Vito got up from the floor and offered Toshinori a hand with a big smile. "Then let's start by going home. Training was canceled today so let's go make something to eat…Together." Toshinori took Vito's hand, lifting him up from the floor.

"Yeah…Sounds good…Wait! Didn't you have to tell me something important?" Toshinori said, still holding onto Vito's hand.

"It can wait. It's not that important." Vito lifted Toshinori's hand to his mouth and kissed it, causing Toshinori to blush. "We can continue our conversation at home." Vito seductively looked up at Toshinori and pulled him all the way to the apartment from the lounge in a rush, he didn't even have time to grab his things from the office.

"What is happening right now?!" Toshinori thought to himself as his mind began to spin. Vito noticed Toshinori was spinning in thoughts, just as he opened the door he pushed Toshinori in first. "Did we really have to rush home all of a sudden?" He asks as he turns to face Vito who was removing his shirt, exposing his upper body.

"All Might…You keep saying you're confused about how you feel. You never specified what you are confused about and I think I might be able to help." Toshinori trips on the front step and lands on the floor with Vito over him, his back against the floor. "You're unsure if you are attracted to me or not. Isn't that right?" Vito licks his neck before grabbing Toshinori's wrists and holding them down above him with one hand. "I will act as your test subject if that is what you wish. I would rather you figure out who you are with me than with someone else." Vito looked into Toshinori's eyes.

"There is a lot I'm confused about…But I don't know if I'm ready for what you are suggesting…" Toshinori blushed, clearly uncomfortable with the situation. Vito sighed, releasing Toshinori's wrists.

"To put it simply, All Might. I am both a top and a bottom, you can use me anyway you want. And if you would like, we can put down some ground rules so you don't feel so uncomfortable." Vito got up and grabbed his shirt that was on the ground by Toshinori. "I can also blind fold myself so I can't see you if that helps." Toshinori got up from the ground. Vito sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "It's just an option, if you decide to experiment or not is fine with me either way. I'm just trying to help." Vito said as he passed Toshinori in the hallway. "Let me know what your answer is when you figure it out. Nothing will change between us no matter what you decide on." Vito looked back at Toshinori who was just standing in the hallway. "Sorry…" Vito said as he walked to his room. Toshinori stood there in the hallway for a while before locking the front door, leaning his head against it, his heart still beating fast in his chest. As the night went on, Toshinori went to bed after eating by himself but was unable to fall asleep, so he went to the couch and laid down. Moments later, Vito creaked his door open and walked to the bathroom, not noticing Toshinori was on the couch at first. While Vito was in the washroom, Toshinori sat up and closed his eyes, pretending to have fallen asleep on the couch with his arms crossed. When Vito finished in the bathroom and turned off the lights, that's when he noticed Toshinori on the couch. He walked over to him and was about to touch his arm to see if he was awake or not when Toshinori grabbed Vito's wrist, looking at him with his deep blue eyes. "Oh uh…..I was just seeing if you were awake…I…I'll lea—" Vito was suddenly pulled towards the couch, causing him to be inches away from Toshinori's face. Vito, now on top of Toshinori and his legs on either side of him, Vito's face turned bright red as he realized the position he was in. "I! Uh!" Toshinori started to forcefully spread Vito's legs apart with his. Vito couldn't keep himself up and ended up sitting in between Toshinori's legs, crotch to crotch. Toshinori gazed down at Vito who was super nervous and confused. He placed his hand under Vito's chin and lifted it up, not saying a single word before kissing him. Toshinori placed his hand under Vito's left thigh, pulling him closer. As he removed his hand from under Vito's chin and slowly moved down his side to his back, putting a couple fingers behind the strap of his boxers. Vito wanted to push him away but couldn't…Toshinori was the one in control. "Ah ha!" Vito moaned just as Toshinori placed his fingers in him. Vito's boner was starting to slide out of his boxers the more Toshinori pulled them down. He covered his mouth to stop himself from being too loud. Suddenly Vito woke up, in bed, he lifted his blankets to find a mess underneath the sheets. "What the fuck…It felt so real…" Vito grumpily got out of bed and removed his bedding, placing them into the laundry basket by the washer.

"Oh hey, you're up." Toshinori said waving to Vito.

"How was your walk?" Vito asked, noticing Toshinori wasn't in his jogging clothes.

"It was alright. But while I was walking, I remembered something you said at the lounge yesterday." Toshinori grabbed Vito's hand and dragged him into Vito's room. Toshinori threw Vito onto his bed, leaning over him. "You said you had something important to tell me. Stop avoiding it."

"Right…You…You don't know what my quirk is do you?" Vito asked, touching the area where Toshinori's scar is.

"No, you never brought it up." Toshinori answered.

"Do you…" Vito pauses. "The embers that remain of your quirk…Are barely light and I can't repair them." Vito explained.

"Wha…What are you talking about?" Toshinori asked.

"One of my abilities is in the category of healing quirks…I could repair the damage to your organs but...not to your quirk. You pushed it too far to be repaired." Vito said, looking up at Toshinori with a sad look, placing his hands on Toshinori's face. "But, if I touch you while my quirk is activated." Toshinori transforms into All Might. "You won't have any side effects from transforming into your muscle form because I'm repairing your body at the same time." As Vito lets go of Toshinori's face, causing him to transform back into his weaker form. Toshinori grabbed one of Vito's hands, he looked shocked and got off of Vito, standing in front of him.

"You….You have multiple quirks?" Toshinori asked, still trying to process what just happened.

"Yes…Due to…A promise I made, I can not tell you the full details yet…Regarding how I got these quirks." Vito smiled. "But I'll be able to soon. I promise." Toshinori sat down next to Vito in disbelief.

"Do you have a time limit on how long you can use this quirk for?" Toshinori asked.

"Hmm…Maybe…45 minutes to an hour. It really wears me out using this quirk, half the time I end up passing out after going over my limit." Vito explained. Toshinori remembered when Aizawa brought Vito back from training. Vito sighed as he looked over at Toshinori. "You don't have to give me an answer now. I just thought you would like to have the option available to you."

"How did you know how much damage was done to my body?" Toshinori asked, catching Vito off guard.

"Ah!...Well when I touch someone while using my quirk, I get all the information at the same time. Like what trauma it went through, if bones were broken at one point in time, if the body was punctured, etc." Vito explained. "You have lived the way you are now for 5 years, All Might. The only thing that has changed is your quirk. If I did some repairs to your body, they might change how your body functions and might put your body into shock." Vito tightened his grip on Toshinori's hand. "Even though you are retired from being a pro hero, I want to make sure you are there for Midoriya and the rest of Class 1A, they need you." Toshinori pushed Vito onto the bed.

"I'll consider it…I want to be there for Midoriya too, I made a promise to his mother I would take care of him." Vito wrapped his arms around Toshinori who was on top of him. "I don't want to die before he doesn't need me anymore." Vito just listened to Toshinori as they laid there. After a while, Vito and Toshinori decided to have a bath together and relax for a bit. While they were in the bathtub, Vito was having trouble cleaning his back when Toshinori offered to help. Toshinori noticed some skin in between Vito's shoulder blades that was a different color and kinda loose. "Do you shed?" He asked.

"Oh! Yeah, 2 times a year usually. I don't think I'm due for one just yet but maybe with the environment change it's possible I could have started early. Why do you ask?" Vito asked, looking back at Toshinori.

"Your skin is peeling between your shoulder blades." Toshinori answered.

"Oh! Yeah, don't worry if some come off if you go over it. It won't hurt me." Vito smiled. "I'm half dragon, that's why I shed." Vito added as Toshinori scrubbed his back.

"I thought you might be, your skin, horns, and tail do indeed look like a dragons. But I've never seen you transform into one yet like Ryuko does." Toshinori said, giving the brush back to Vito.

"I can't transform into a dragon like Ryuko can. How I look is the closest I'll ever get to looking like a dragon." Vito explained as he scrubbed his arm. "All Might…"

"Hmm?" Toshinori responded.

"I'll be gone for a week or 2 starting next week." Vito said.

"What? Why?" Toshinori asked.

"There's some health issues I need to get sorted out, I'll be going to Otsuka Hospital in Tokyo, where they will be running tests to see what's going on." Vito explained. "But don't worry, everything will be ok. It has to be done mostly because my medical records haven't been updated in sometime and Recovery Girl needs them up to date."

"What are your medical problems?" Toshinori asked.

"One is genetic, I have to take drugs at a certain time of year to keep my hormones in check or else I go a bit stir-crazy." Vito explained. "And most are mental issues and I haven't been taking my drugs because I ran out of them and been unable to get more." Vito sighed.

"So you go into heat like an animal a couple times a year and some mental issues." Toshinori puts his chin on Vito's shoulder. "What kind of mental issues do you have if you don't mind me asking?" Toshinori asked.

"Uh…I know it doesn't seem like it but…Depression, Anxiety, and ADHD." Vito explained as Toshinori laughed.

"Well, I definitely noticed the ADHD. Going from point A to point B without a word or getting distracted by the smallest things out of the blue. That explains so much!" Vito laughed with Toshinori.

"Yeah, my husband used to joke about it and would yell SQUIRREL when my head changed directions." Vito laughed before noticing what he just said. "...Uh…I mean a friend…of mine…" Vito tried to correct his words. Vito leaned forwards and turned to face Toshinori with a concerned and terrified look. Toshinori remembered what Vito said regarding his past and losing someone important to him.

"Sorry…" Toshinori apologized.

"It's…Ok…It's just a bad memory that I wish I could forget." Vito said, after the bath, Vito went quietly into his room. Toshinori decided to go for a walk because he needed some fresh air, while he was walking he decided to go down to the greenhouse. When he got to the bottom of the dirt path, he noticed a few new additions had been added to the greenhouse. There was a heater system installed, some beams with hanging baskets hanging from them, and what looked like a room added to the top with a balcony.

"Wow! They sure have done a lot of work since the last time I was here." Toshinori commented just as he noticed a bench by the cliff. He walked over and took a seat on the bench, looking over the forest and the ocean as the moon light lit up the area.

"It's quite a sight isn't it." A voice said behind him, scaring him almost out of his seat. It was Ari and she was laughing at Toshinori's reaction.

"Oh! Ari!" Toshinori said in surprise, grasping his jacket.

"Haha sorry but I couldn't resist." Ari walked over with her hand on her back and took a seat next to Toshinori.

"You alright?" Toshinori asked, noticing Ari was pretty stiff.

"Hmm? Oh! Yeah, just been leaning over all day. Probably strained my back a little." Ari said, rubbing her lower back.

"You should probably put some ice on it, it would help with the swelling." Toshinori suggested.

"Ah you're right, would you like to come join me inside? You haven't been here for quite some time and I wouldn't mind giving you a personal tour." Ari smiled as she got up from the bench.

"Uh…Sure. I noticed a few new additions have been added since the last time I was here." Toshinori commented as they began to walk together.

"You got sharp eyes there, Toshinori. They added the heaters finally just as the colder weather started, added the beams I requested, put a storage area in the back for the tools which I can access throughout the winter without getting cold, and they added the space upstairs!" Ari said, opening the doors for Toshinori. As he walked through the front doors, he could really see how full it was, full of vegetables, fruit, you name it.

"Wow! You did this all by yourself?" He asked, amazed.

"At the start yes but now we have a garden club that comes here after school to help with keeping this in tip top shape." Ari smiled as she walked over to a strawberry plant, picking a ripe berry and handing it to Toshinori. "Here, try it." Toshinori took the strawberry and took a small bite.

"Mmm! Wow! The flavor is completely different from the ones you buy in the store!" He scarfed down the rest of the berry as Ari laughed.

"This is why I enjoy gardening so much, the fresh produce you grow is nothing like what you get in a grocery store." Ari began to walk to the back of the greenhouse. She showed Toshinori the attached shed, where storage is for the gathered produce, where the seeds are, and the stairs that led up to the room on top of the greenhouse. As they made their way up the stairs and Ari opened the door, she said "Welcome to my home." Toshinori walked into a plant covered room, there was a bed, a small kitchen, 2 French doors that led out to the balcony, and large windows facing the back of the greenhouse towards the forest.

"This place is massive! It's bigger than my own place." Toshinori commented as he looked around. Ari opened the doors just as it was getting dark enough to see the stars.

"Let me show you something special." Ari said as she waved him over, there were 2 chairs on the balcony facing towards the ocean. Just as Toshinori joined Ari for a seat, the solar lights that were around the balcony came on, dimly lighting up the area. "Look." Ari pointed to the sky, showing a million stars and the milky way appearing above them.

"What?! I didn't even know we could get a view like this here!" Toshinori's jaw dropped.

"Yeah…It's amazing isn't it? I can't get enough, I'm usually out here for hours before I go to bed." Ari smiled, looking at the stars before turning towards Toshinori. "Toshinori…" Toshinori looked at Ari. "I'll be gone for 2 weeks next week. I'll be going to an event in Nagoya. I might come back earlier but I'm unsure."

"I see…I hope you bring back a t-shirt for me while you're there." Toshinori laughed, Ari could only smile at his comment. "Looks like I'll be alone for a while…" He said, frowning.

"What do you mean? You'll have your roommate won't you?" Ari asked.

"He's leaving next week too, he's going to Otsuka hospital in Tokyo to get some tests done and have his medical records updated." Toshinori explained. Ari got up from her seat, placing a hand on her lower back.

"Ow…Sorry, I'll be right back, I'm gonna go grab that ice pack you suggested earlier." Ari stiffly walked behind Toshinori. As she went inside and turned the corner towards the kitchen, Toshinori looked back at the stars before suddenly hearing the sound of glass breaking. He got up and ran inside to see Ari, kneeled down on the ground next to a broken glass.

"Are you ok?!" Toshinori rushed over, kneeling down beside her.

"Yeah…I was just trying to get a glass of water when a massive pulse of pain suddenly ran through my back." Ari said, grabbing hold of Toshinori. "Damn, I just got that glass too." Toshinori noticed a design on the broken glass, it was an All Might glass they had at the convenience store.

"Let me help you up. I'll clean this mess up and get you that ice pack." Toshinori helped Ari to her feet, she was very shaky. They walked slowly over to her bed while Toshinori supported her shaking body.

"Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you like this." Ari said, holding tightly onto Toshinori.

"Don't worry about it. Just rest here while I clean up, ok?" Toshinori said, Ari nodded before he left to get the broom and dust pan. As Toshinori was dumping the glass shards into the trash, he noticed Ari had undid the top of her overalls, showing a skin tight sports bra and her stomach. Toshinori quickly looked away, grabbing the ice pack and a glass of water for Ari before walking over stiffly. "He–here…" He said shyly, trying not to look at Ari half naked.

"Thank you, would you mind grabbing one more thing for me?" Ari asked, placing the ice pack on her back.

"Su-ure. What is it?" Toshinori asked as he looked where Ari was pointing.

"Over there, above the stove, is an unlabeled jar with clear liquid in it. Can you grab it for me?" She asks, Toshinori went and grabbed the mystery jar above the stove and handed it to Ari. She opens it and puts some of the liquid on her hands before using her hands to rub the liquid onto her back.

"What did you put in your hands?" Toshinori asked, watching Ari massage her back.

"Coconut oil, it's great for the skin and great for massaging your muscles. Ow!" Ari yelped, hitting a very sore spot.

"Here…Lay down for a moment." Toshinori said, rolling up his sleeves. "Let me help." Ari repositioned herself and laid face down, holding a pillow in her arms to give her some comfort as Toshinori sat down on the back of her thighs, poured some oil into his hands before he began rubbing her back. "Sorry, I hope you don't mind me asking…But could you undo your bra? It's getting in the way." Ari's face turned red, embarrassed and conflicted with the situation she had gotten herself in.

"Y-you…Y-you can do it if you w-w-want…." Ari said awkwardly, burying her face into the pillow. She could feel Toshinori's hands undoing her bra and moving the fabric to either side of her shoulders before massaging her neck. "Oh..Wo–Wow…You're really good at this…" Ari melted into her pillow.

"I learned how to do this from my massage therapist when I went to one." Toshinori commented as he moved down her back. "You have a well built body, it's amazing you got this just from gardening." Toshinori said, observing Ari's back.

"Thanks, there's a lot of heavy lifting involved with gardening, you know." Ari chuckled just before Toshinori hit her sore spot. Her body tensed up and began to shake.

"Oops! Sorry!" Toshinori said as he took the pressure off the spot. He looked up towards Ari and she just gave him a thumbs up.

"Keep…Going…I'm not at my limit yet." Ari said, biting the pillow. After a while of him massaging her back, Toshinori had to leave due to it getting late and as he was about to say goodbye to Ari when she went for a hug. Toshinori embraced Ari and as they looked at each other, a spark was unknowingly lit between them.
