Chapter Four
He awoke to the sound of someone snoring nearby, someone had draped a blanket around his shoulders and darkness had fallen while he had slept, he checked his watch and stared at the time it was four in the morning. Hizashi was curled in a yellow sleeping bag, sound asleep, he wondered why they were both following him around recently. Why had Hizashi chosen to sleep on the hard ground, he picked Hizashi up and the hero curled himself into Toshinori muttering something in his sleep. Toshi smiled softly, he wasn't used to this, it had been several years since he'd shared a quiet moment like this with someone. Perhaps he was reading much too into this, he shrugged before he walked to the teacher's lounge and brought the futon down with one hand, he tried then to let Hizashi go, but the man held fast to him and Toshi didn't want to disturb him. He gently set him on the mattress, waiting for the grip to ease, rather than taking the hand from him. He didn't know how sound of a sleeper Hizashi was and he had no desire to make this awkward.
"Yes Toshi..." Hizashi murmured and moaned in his sleep, Toshi had had dreams like that himself once, before he had been scarred and well he'd been in too much pain to be aroused by anything or anyone. Now however his cock stiffened and he stared down at Hizashi, who panted and moaned in his sleep, the hand finally fell from his shoulders coming to rest above the voice hero's head, he backed up hastily, he had no idea what to do or how to handle the situation. He was about to leave when he saw Aizawa who stared at him.
"Nothing happened, I swear nothing happened, I was just sleeping and he came in and slept with me, not with me but in the same room as me and..." Toshi babbled and Shota silenced him with a searing kiss. It was the sort of kiss that was a claiming kiss and it made his brain short circuit completely.
"We like you, we want you to join our triad, if you could be professional if it ends badly between us." Shota said and Toshi stared at the man in shock.
"You want me to what now?" He asked.
"Why are you shocked, we've always liked you, but when we got to know you, the man and not the name, we fell hard for you. Still we knew we couldn't ask that of you, not when you're so self-sacrificing that you would push us away because of your scars. Then a few mornings ago everything changed, we couldn't think properly or teach, all we wanted was you and to be around you. So, will you do it, will you join with us? I know you look at us, even when you were scarred you looked at both Hizashi and me, so I believe you desire us at least."
"I don't know what to say, will you give me some time to think it over?" Toshi asked.
"Of course, how about a week." He asked and Toshi spluttered Shota laughed in response. "I take it that you wish to have longer."
"My life has just changed, I found out I have a son, I have to train him." Toshi said Shota nodded.
"I understand, but its cruel to draw it out longer, Hizashi tends to pine and it will be hard on him, to me you either choose to be in a relationship with us or you don't but Hizashi is different. I will not be pleased if you hurt him."
"I wouldn't deliberately I would never harm another, particularly a romantic interest." He said and blushed. "We will talk more later." He said and hastily left he didn't know how to process what Shota had just said, the man was prickly and had more defenses than most. Hizashi was the opposite being so open and honest, it was his nature to share himself freely with everyone he met. He was also tired and decided to get some more sleep, he laid down on the couch in the student dorm, rather than going back to his own apartment.
He tried to sleep but his thoughts wouldn't settle, he pretended to snore when the first students came down, they stared at him and talked in hushed whispers. As long as he pretended to be asleep, they would leave him alone and he wanted to be able to think his thoughts. "I wonder if his dreams are dark, or bright and sunny.' Fumikage said and someone shushed him. "He has a duel nature, like me, as does Izuku."
"I thought we agreed not to talk about Deku." Bakugo said. "He's still the annoying wimp he's always been, to me this changes nothing."
"It changes everything and you know it." Tenya stated. "He is the child of a Pro hero, moreover he is the untrained child of a Pro hero, I've been in lessons since I could take my first steps, so have Todoroki and Momo." He said. "Villains would use their connection against him."
"Deku can take care of himself, he's a good hero and he's saved your asses a time or to, so don't go saying he's a whimp or untrained, that's unmanly to say about a friend." Kirishima said and stretched. "I'm going to eat some cereal, if the rest of you want to be creepers, that's fine." He added and walked away, some of the children followed him, but some stayed and continued to talk about him and his son, it was interesting to know what they thought but it didn't matter much to him.
"Morning." Izuku said and Toshinori could hear his steps, as his watch went off.
"I AM HERE, I AM HERE, IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP FOR I AM HERE!" Toshinori groaned, silencing his watch and opening his eyes, the students were gathered around him and looked embarrassed. He blinked, before he sat up and shook his head.
"Coffee." He muttered before going over to the sink and running water over his head. The cold water felt wonderful and he sighed, before shaking back his hair. "Would you mind if I used the men's showers?" He asked and got no response.
"That's fine Dad, I think most use the showers in the afternoon." Izuku said and he nodded, he walked to the showers and borrowed a towel. The water felt nice but he hurried through washing, he washed off the stale sweat and sang an ancient rock song belting out the words as fast as he could.
"Well, I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind
I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time
But I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do, yeah
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
After all I knew, it had to be something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
You called me strong, you called me weak
But still your secrets, I will keep
You took for granted all the times, I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back on solid ground
If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite, yeah
If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite
All around the world
All around the world
All around the world."
He finished the song and got out of the shower, drying off and putting his uniform back on before striding from the room. "What song was that Dad?" Izuku asked.
"It's a song from the 1980's called Kryptonite, it's one of my favorites." He said and smiled at his son, before getting out his music player and tossing it to Izuku. "It's under Pump Up." He said and his son stared at him in shock. "I want you to know more about me, my boy, we were already close before this, I already considered you my son, though I couldn't admit those feelings out loud. I like rock from the early days of rock music, there's something about it that music these days doesn't seem to even match. I wasn't even alive during that time, it was two hundred years before I was even born, yet I have always loved music from the `1950's to the early 21st century. My Great Great Grandfather was alive when I was a boy, he had a longevity quirk and he introduced me to this music. He was born in the year 2050 and so they still had knowledge of this music, he saved much from being lost to time."
"A longevity quirk, I had heard of those, but they were something only the first or second generation had and there were only ten people in the world that had them, five of which wrote autobiographies.' He son started to mutter.
"My Great Grandfather was Toshinori Yagi, he refused to let my father name me after him, but my father named me close to his name. Like me my father loved that old man, but even longevity quirks have a time limit." He said and smiled at Izuku. "Should we go to the cafeteria together, it's not too late to share in a quick meal before we need to go to classes."
"I'd like that." Izuku said and he smiled, he ran with his son to the cafeteria, others stared at them as they ran by, his sons feet started to spark, then he took off lighting flashing under his feet. Toshinori had to boost his own speed with his quirk in order to keep up with his son, as he rode the lightning laughing, then he was laughing as well sharing in his child's joy. They made it to the cafeteria and Izuku pulled the lightning back into himself, before they went to the counter. Toshi couldn't help the eager look that came to his eyes when he saw the breakfast burritos in the ready area, he grabbed ten and his son did the same, going to a free table to sit down. Izuku got out the music player and Toshi nodded, as he pressed play, the classic rock filling their part of the room, his son was getting really into the music as they ate. He smiled he loved sharing this with his child. He devoured his own food and came back for seconds, glad he had nearly an hour before class, perhaps he'd sleep on the couch in his son's dorm more often.
He got coffee as well this time, opening the instant coffee and chugging it down, it took about seven for him to start to feel the effects and ten to get a buzz from the coffee. Several students stared at him as Hizashi made his way into the cafeteria, the voice hero looked like he was half asleep his hair hung down to his shoulders and Toshi realized it was the first time he'd seen it how it was naturally. He grabbed a couple more coffees and handed it to Hizashi who stared at them blearily. "Drink it." He said and the man downed the coffee, one after the other. Toshi smiled at him, before taking his hand. "I'd be willing to consider dating you both, but let's take it slow." The voice hero blinked in surprise.
"Did I hear you correctly?" He asked and Toshi nodded.
"Shota informed me of your interest and I asked for a week to decide, but I don't need a week. I like you both and would like to give this a try." He said and suddenly he was kissing Hizashi, the man clung to him as he kissed him and Toshi felt his cheeks coloring, it felt like he was the one in high school. Everyone was watching, staring at them more like and he realized that perhaps it hadn't been the best time to voice his interest, but then Somebody to Love came on and it felt like fate.
"Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord, what you're doing to me (yeah yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work 'til I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
'Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) can anybody find me somebody to love?
Everyday (everyday) I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Ah, got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, Lord
Ooh somebody, ooh somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I'm OK, I'm alright (he's alright, he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat (yeah yeah)
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love

Find me, find me, find me, find me, find me
Ooh, somebody to love (Find me somebody to love)
Ooh (find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me somebody to love (find me somebody to love)
Anybody, anywhere, anybody find me somebody to love love love!
Somebody find me, find me love."
Hizashi stared at him and he smiled softly, as Shota came into the room, the song changed to another song entirely. It was upbeat and catchy and part of the playlist that he'd seen Izuku play, but that song wasn't even on that playlist. I Need a Hero was playing now and he joined in singing along to the song, as Hizashi continued to stare at him, the man was clearly in shock for some reason. Shota joined him and danced with them, as he sang. He felt wild and carefree in a way he hadn't felt in ages, almost since his college days, when everything seemed full of endless possibility.
"How is it that I've never heard any of this?"
"Its music from the 20th century, my favorite music." Toshi said and Hizashi grew wide eyed.
"Music from before quirks, I've never heard this sort of music before, I thought it had all vanished into time." He said and Toshi smiled at him.
"My Grandfather was a lot like you, he loved music and saved as much of it as he could, adding it to his collection. He gave me his record collection when he died, some four thousand albums and the digital music as well, he was one of those with a longevity quirk, he lived for nearly two hundred years and saw the death of both his child and his grandchild." He said and they stared at him in shock.
"I can't believe I never put it together, Toshinori was your Great Grandfather wasn't he, that's why you only look to be in your mid-twenties, despite the fact you're in your mid-forties."
"Well yes." He said and blushed glancing down, before he met Shota's eyes again. "It's not something I like to talk about, at any rate I expect that I won't see near as many years as he did."
"Is that why I look ten?" His son demanded and he nodded in response.
"Yes, that's why you look younger than your years." He replied and Izuku stared at him. "My face didn't start to fill out until college, I got mistaken for a middle school student in my natural form until I was twenty-five." He added. "Little old ladies would want to help me and get me back to my parents, I had to constantly carry around my ID card, but there were always a few that insisted that I had a false ID, then I'd have to run into an Alley and transform to get away from them." He said and several people laughed in response. "You laugh at the pain of a youth, how could you when you didn't have to feel their boney little hands, some of them had very strong grips and I had to constantly make up addresses and go to the houses of friends calling them Onichan when they were my age." He added which caused even more people to laugh, even Shota let out a hastily muted chuckle and he sighed.
"Did you ever get asked where your Mommy was?" Izuku asked and he laughed.
"All the time, it was a blow to the ego, until I was able to outrun them." He said and his son laughed as well, he went over to the child and ruffled his hair. "With that it is time to see what my schedule is today." He said and bounded off to the teachers' lounge, he grinned when he saw that he had the time until lunch completely free, then Class 3 till three, the Advanced Class only had one class, as Shota had dismissed the entire other class several years ago.
He bounded into the sky jumping from building to building, for two hours, it seemed no villains desired to cause crime or mayhem at this time however, which sort of sucked because he could use the distraction. He landed in front of an American diner he used to eat at as a teenager, ordering ten burgers, ten large fries and five strawberry shakes. He downed the food and paid for his meal, before going back to the rooftops, until his watch told him it was noon. He then made it back to the school and was still hungry, so had three rice bowls.
"Eating light today?" Lunch Rush asked.
"I already ate about an hour ago, but I'm still a bit hungry."
"Thank you for not cleaning me out." Lunch Rush said and they both laughed.
"Can you set aside forty instant coffees, I'm going to push Class 3 harder than I have been going with the other students." He said and Lunch Rush nodded, he ate his food before going to Gym E. His class was waiting for him, already doing stretching exercises. "Good job, keep it up for the next five minutes, before we start going through sparring drills." He said and they nodded, each stretching their bodies in different ways.
"No quirks right?" Miro asked and he nodded, he explained what he wanted from them and the ten students paired off, doing the drills perfectly.
"Honey whoa, alright, I can see I'm being a bit easy on you, how about something a bit harder?" He asked and the students all cheered, he smiled at their enthusiasm before going through his favorite fighting pattern, a series of blocks, kicks lunges and throws that were very complicated, the students followed along, and he corrected their stance and mistakes, they were a joy to teach and easy to explain things to. Moreover, the false bravado that the other classes had was gone from this group, they had learned true confidence in their abilities. "I believe you will be ready for anything life throws at you, I will be very proud at your graduation and you impressed me today which isn't easy to do, now we will be going over situational training back at the classroom." He said and they followed him back to class, grabbing the ice coffees he gave them and chugging them, as they walked.
Miro had a hard path ahead of him, he would be the first hero without a quirk if he managed to pass all his classes, which Toshi had little doubt the boy would. Already he had a team of support students who were graduating this year making him gadgets. He would be like the hero from the comic books his grandfather allowed him to read as a boy, the true Batman.
He should play some of his videos of batman for the class, in fact that is what he'd do today, some of the fight scenes were actually accurate and he'd spliced together one of those for his own entertainment. He had always had a soft spot for the caped crusader it was why he had become friends with David Shield, though his friend had turned out to be less of a hero than he had hoped.
He ran his compilation fights for his students and they all stared at the hero on the screen. "Who is this can I train with him?" Miro asked
"No, but the idea of a hero working as a hero without powers isn't a new one, I can't help but make comparisons to this 2oth century fictional hero and you Miro. There are none that have walked your chosen path before you, but I believe that you are capable of becoming a great hero. Would you care to watch more footage of this hero, despite the fact that he never truly existed." The boy beamed.
"Then it is possible, it's not just a dream of mine?" Miro asked.
"Entirely possible, Batman used a range of weapons, including grappling guns, knives and in some versions of the character guns but in most versions he refused to use them as it was against his code." He said and the bell rang. "I want you to give me a two-thousand-word essay on the capabilities and weaknesses of the heroes you saw in the archival footage, this is to be do day after tomorrow.
"But two days from now will be the weekend Sir." Miro stated and Toshinori frowned, he had lost track of time, his life had taken so many odd twists and turns lately and he needed a break.
"Well then it is due the next time we meet, the schedule will be ever changing as is usual for UA classes lately." He said and left the room, he walked to the teachers' lounge and smiled at Shota and Hizashi. "Would you care to go out drinking with me, or do you have plans for this night?"
"I can go out tonight, but tomorrow I have my radio show." Hizashi said and Toshinori nodded.
"I can come out as well." Shota said and he grinned.
"Well should we leave in thirty minutes or so?" He asked. "I am sorry that people will recognize us even in my hero form."
"Then how about we order takeout instead, or there is this bar I know that rents out backrooms and caters to Pros."
"No Pro bars, I don't like those establishments, I prefer to be out among people and I don't like how they serve me in those establishments. In addition, every drink is four times the price it would be normally. I don't see the point in needlessly throwing away money as I need at least ten to start to feel the alcohol before it burns out, I know a little place I went to before, which is both discrete and keeps their prices affordable." He said and the others nodded.
"Alright we'll go to the place you like, but how far will we have to travel? I can use my capture weapons but Hizashi doesn't have the same capabilities."
"I could carry him, if you would agree to it, in fact I could carry you both easily enough."
"I don't like heights, if I can avoid them I do."
"Then do you own a car?" Toshi asked. "Because I don't."
"Yes, actually we do own a car, I suppose you wouldn't have much occasion to drive anywhere."
"Not when I can go faster traveling by rooftop." He said and laughed, before he walked away. "Shall we meet here in half an hour? Dress casually it's pretty much a dive bar."
"Alright." Shota said and he smiled, before bounding away, he went to his apartment and changed into casual clothing after taking a quick shower he then shook back his hair and traveled from rooftop to rooftop. He landed in front of the school, waved his security badge and went to the teacher's quarters. They stared at him and he frowned. "What?"
"Only you would totally manage to make that look good." Hizashi said gesturing to his shirt which was bright with floral sunflowers.
"It somehow suits you, despite being incredibly garish and the striped pants clashing horribly." Shota said and he realized they were right, he laughed and fiddled with his hair.
"I'm not one for style I'm afraid, I usually just wear whatever I can grab at a moment's notice."
"I get that, it's easier to just walk out the door, but I don't do that normally." Hizashi said and Toshi shrugged.
"Can we go now?" He asked and they nodded, he followed them to their car.
"Do you drive, or would you prefer to enter the address into my GPS?" Hizashi asked.
"GPS." Toshinori said. "I've never been good at driving." He admitted. "Though if I could sit in the front, it would be better."
"Of course, I can take the back, I wouldn't want your knees digging into my back." Shota said and Toshi laughed, he got in the front and entered the address, they drove together.
"So, this bar caters to all types, civilians, villains, vigilantes and heroes, it has three rules, one you check your baggage at the door, two you don't physically fight inside the bar and three, if you break anything you have to pay for it along with the other people you broke it with." He said.
"Sounds like my sort of place, I can drink with villains as long as they aren't doing anything elicit." Hizashi said and Toshinori nodded.
"It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I have had some of the most interesting conversations there." He said and grinned when he saw the bar, he was excited to get properly drunk again, he was so ready to put his new liver to the test.
He strode into the bar and smiled at the bartender, Shadow Dancer had been a hero until he retired twenty years ago, he'd opened the bar shortly afterward. "All Might, I was wondering when you were going to brighten the gloom of my humble establishment."
"Well I'm finally well again and ready to get drunk, so ready to get drunk." He said and Shadow Dancer laughed, he sat down at one of the seats at the bar, then did a double take surprised. "Your name is Dabi right?"
"What's it to you? Just let me drink, it's been a hard week." Dabi said and Toshinori rubbed the back of his head.
"Can't be as strange as mine." He said and smiled brightly. "Two bottles of sake you know the kind I like and ten of your burger meals, supersized. What do you guys want, I'll buy what you want as well." He said and smiled at both of them, they looked slightly uncomfortable but that would pass.
"I'll have a Sidecar with Suntory and he'll have Suntory neat." Shota said and watched the room carefully, his back was stiff, until the third round of drinks, where he relaxed slightly.
"So, what's your deal anyway?" Toshi asked Dabi, who stared at him in shock, as he finished off his first bottle of Saki. "I mean seriously you look young and you are way too against heroes for someone your age. Most people don't kill when they are barely more than children."
"The first person I killed was myself, at fifteen because my hero father was an abusive asshole, it's been one fire storm of crap after another since then. My baby brother is also in training to be a hero and I'm so sick of people acting like heroes are actually good."
"Because some actually are, or at least we try to be."
"Yeah, I guess I'm starting to truly understand what I've gotten myself into and now there's no way out." He took a gulp of his drink, some sort of amber liquid. "Another barkeep."
"Of course." Shadow Dancer said and poured him another, Toshinori drained his sake, before gulping back the second bottle and starting in on his burgers.
"You know you could decide to make a change, turn state's witness, you might serve some time for your crimes, but then you could be an average citizen." Toshinori said. "If what you say is true, you would also be saving your little brother from further abuse."
"I can't save him, no one can." Dabi said darkly and gulped back another glass, Toshinori finished off the bottle and ordered two more.
"Sure, you can, you can be his hero, if nothing else and perhaps he'll want a relationship with you, all my students are wonderful people and I believe that they would be capable of forgiveness." Toshinori said.
"You know nothing about what you're talking about, my father is Endeavor." Dabi said angrily and Toshinori stared at him in shock.
"Endeavor?" Toshinori demanded. "Your brother is Shoto and his father is abusing him?" Toshinori demanded, before slugging back more sake, he needed something stronger than rice wine. "I'll take a bottle of Jack." He said and one was set in front of him, he needed to get so drunk that he couldn't see straight, one thing he couldn't stand, that he could never stand was child abusers.
"It started when I was three, it lasted until I was almost ready to go to UA, I had to get out of there, no matter what. I intended to die at fifteen, unfortunately I only managed to make it look like I died, instead I became what you see now and lost my boyish good looks. My best friend wasn't so lucky, we decided to go out together, but only he died in the conflagration. Poor Hikaru, why did he have to die and I have to live?" He started to sob, Toshi hesitated one moment, before patting Dabi on the back.
"Hikaru Shizun?" Toshinori asked, Hikaru had been the son of a pro hero with a flame quirk that worked for Endeavor's agency, Dabi sobbed harder at the name of his childhood friend.. "Why did he wish to die."
"For the same reason I did, his father hit him too, always places that no one could see, always so hard that it would hurt for weeks. Between that and the brutal training we had enough, but apparently my quirk wouldn't let me kill myself." He said and gulped down more of whatever he was drinking, Toshi downed the bottle all at once, his head fogged over with the whiskey. He was drunk enough for this conversation now.
"We will get Shoto away from him, regardless of what you decide to do. Fact is you've killed five heroes and some of those people were good men and women."
"Some, yeah right." Dabi said and drank some more, he swayed in his seat, as he continued to drink. "Is it alright if I pass out here tonight?"
"It's fine Dabi." Shadow Dancer said cleaning a glass, Toshinori continued to drink, finishing off a second bottle of Jack, he didn't want to think. He remembered Endeavor from his own school days, he'd been a bit of an asshole but he had no idea that his old rival was capable of this. This was horrible, it was horrific t was so wrong, he had harmed children, children! Toshinori started sobbing crying for a boy who could have been so much more than what he was, but because of his father became Dabi.
"Stop that, I'm fucked up and it's too late for me, but it's not too late for Shoto, or Natsuo, or Fumi...Please if you are truly a hero, please save them from him."
"I will get them away from him, if they need money I will provide it, they will not need to have contact with him from tomorrow on. However, I need you, I need your help to do so. No one will just believe my word, they will need proof and you can provide that proof."
"I'll do it, for them I'll do it, even if it means I have to spend the rest of my life in prison, it's time that I be their big brother. I thought it was impossible but with your help we can be free of him, free of him forever." His eyes filled with tears.
"Tomorrow at ten I will stand in front of the Endeavor agency and arrange an interview, I will speak the truth as long as you are there." He said. "The others might well be too afraid of him to tell the truth."
"I'll tell the truth, I'll be there, but I better go with you, because I might not remember this tomorrow."
"What's your tolerance level?"
"Low if I don't burn it off, medium if I do." He replied.
"Then burn it off."
"I want to be drunk."
"What do you want more, to be drunk or to save your siblings?" Toshinori asked and Dabi lit himself on fire, he burned for ten minutes, before the flames stopped and he stared at Toshinori, Toshinori wrote down his phone number. "Here is my personal number, Do you still wish to do what we discussed, I cannot speak about what you told me unless you are there."
"I will go." Dabi said and then he paid for his drinks grabbed the number and left the bar.
"Do you know what you just promised him Toshinori?"
"Child abusers are the lowest of the low, Endeavor already hates me I don't see how this will make any difference." Toshinori stated. "What is he going to do, burn me and spend the rest of his life in prison?" He demanded and the other two fell silent, he drank until his vision blurred and he knew he'd pass out soon. "Can you take me to my house?"
"We'll take you to ours and you can sleep it off in our guest bedroom. I need to go, I don't want to be sober anymore." Shota said and they walked to the car, Toshi supporting Hizashi, with four bottles of Suntory in a plastic bag. He managed to help Hizashi into the back and fit himself into the front seat, he'd change form once they were at the house, then he'd pass the fuck out.
He got to the house, got Hizashi up to his room and turned to Shota. "I know we just started dating but I don't want to be alone, even though I'm just going to pass out, I don't want to be alone after that."
"You can stay with us." Shota said. "Just to sleep."
"Just to sleep." He agreed, he took off his shirt, set his alarm and got into bed, a moment later he let go of his larger form and passed out.
