Izuku plastered himself to the back their couch. His green eyes filled with fear staring at the giant red headed man. He had already met everyone in Shouto's family so this meant this was Shouto's father. He gave off something that made Izuku fear for his life- maybe it was a vampire thing. He wasn't sure but he was sure he was going to die.

"WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOU?!" the large vampire bellowed.

"I-I-I-

"WHO ARE YOU MORTAL?!"

The words died on his tongue. He couldn't speak to save his life. Izuku hoped to god if there was one, he didn't piss himself.

"Leave him alone!" Shouto shouted.

"Who is he?! WHY IS HE HERE!" his father yelled.

Oh dear god... I'm going to die-

"He's my boyfriend! Will you stop yelling?!"

Enji reached out for Izuku, making him close his eyes shut tight. This was it.

"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH HIM!"

Shouto threw himself in front of Izuku in the blink of an eye. Dabi came flying inside with a lit cigarette in his mouth.

"Dad! Leave him be!" he yelled.

"NO SMOKING IN THE HOUSE!"

Izuku jumped when Shouto grabbed his arm, accidently pulling it out of the socket.

"AH!" he shouted.

"Did I hurt you! I'm sorry!" the young vampire cried.

"It's ok... I just... I'm sorry!" he cried looking at the old vampire.

"What the fuck is going on?!"

"I invited him over! Why are you here?!" Shouto yelled.

Dabi snuffed out his cancer stick and pushed his dad out of the way.

"Your arm looks like it out of socket."

It was the same one he pulled when they had that scuffle with Katsuki.

"Get this thing out of here!" Enji yelled looking annoyed.

"I'm not some thing!" Izuku yelled.

The vampire stared at him.

"Excuse you?"

Izuku stared at Dabi, "Can you help me?"

Shouto let go of him.

"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you..."

Dabi helped him pull his shirt off.

"I'm not good at this but I can try."

Shouto stared down his father.

"One... two... three..."

Dabi maneuvered his arm and it popped back in with Izuku letting out a cry.

"T-thanks."

The next thing Izuku knew, the three vampires were arguing. He crept off and found Shouto's phone on his dresser. He quickly dialed Rei's number. It rang two times before she picked up.

"Hello?"

"Rei? Your husband is home. I'm sorry! I fell asleep on the couch without meaning too! I was waiting for Shouto to wake up-

"I'm on my way. Where are you?"

"In Shouto's room."

"Alright, stay there. Don't leave either. Enji wouldn't intentionally kill you or feed off of you. Is Dabi there?"

"Y-yea."

Rei sighed.

"I'm sorry. I wanted to introduce you when it was on our terms but I guess that isn't going to happen. Stay still, don't move. Love you and see you soon."

He blinked.

"Love you too."

Click!

Izuku sat on Shouto's bed. He could hear they were still fighting but he couldn't make out was exactly being said. He placed his face in his hands, feeling angry. He was getting tired of being treated like a thing. He might be more of an inferior life form than them but he wasn't a thing. He was a person. Something Rei was once. Something Shouto was almost half of.

Human.

Now, he felt like maybe they had no right to be near each other. To even exchange a text message, especially if it was going to make Shouto's life more difficult. He was a kind person. Someone who just wanted someone- anyone to understand but it seemed like that wasn't going to happen at now at this point.

I should just go home.

BAM!

Izuku jumped up at the loud sound.

His heart pounded furiously in his chest.

She told me to stay put but... Is Shouto and Dabi ok?

Against Rei's wishes, he left the bedroom. He crept down the hallway to see some smoke in the living room. It smelled like burnt flesh and it was terrible enough to make his stomach turn. He saw Rei standing there with her skin black in some places but it started to heal up quickly. It was both amazing and scary how she looked half dead.

"What is the meaning of this?!" Rei screamed.

The three males stopped fighting.

"Didn't I tell you I didn't want humans here?!" Enji yelled throwing his hands up, "I don't feel like moving again!"

"Dad, he isn't like that," Dabi said trying to defend Izuku.

"How would you know?!"

"He saved Shouto twice already," she said placing a hand on his arm.

"What?! What kind of stupidity is this? What did you do boy?!" Enji screamed at his youngest son.

"I didn't do anything wrong-

"He was attacked," Rei said, making Enji face her, "He was reduced to his little bat form the first time. Izuku nursed him back to health. The second time Katsuki caught wind of Izuku and Shouto then decided to be a little ass about it. Izuku fed him because he had fed in a while and I came to their rescue. Have some more respect for the poor boy. He protected Shouto every step of the way."

The large vampire stepped back, "Let me go. I'll come back after the boy leaves."

Enji left out the door into the sunlight.

Rei locked the door and rubbed her temples. Izuku was still scared shitless, standing there. He had no idea Shouto's father was that opposed to human beings around his family but it sounded more like it was really Dabi's fault for that with Rei being human in her past life. He stood there quietly watching them all.

"I'm sorry, Izuku..." Rei said finally.

"I'll go home."

Dabi looked mildly surprised.

"You don't have to do that."

"I... Maybe it's not such a great idea... us..." Izuku said.

"What are you trying to say?" Shouto said walking towards him.

"I didn't want to cause problems like this. It sounds more like he was scared for your family's security than anything... I don't want to jeopardize that."

Izuku disappeared back into the hallway and back into Shouto's room. He gathered what little bit of things he had brought with him and headed back into the living room. Shouto sat in the kitchen with a blank expression on his face.

"Can... can you take me home?" Izuku asked.

Dabi nodded quietly.

When Izuku's stepped into his home, Inko wasn't home. She left a note saying she was going to be gone for a few days just in case he came home early. He went to his room and threw his stuff onto the desk before falling onto his bed face first. Maybe this whole thing was stupid from the start. He caused so much drama and chaos just being there...

It's almost evening. Maybe I should just sleep instead.

He rolled over, then just did that.

"You knew better!" Enji yelled at Rei, "After everything Dabi did with those human women- you let Shouto bring that child into my house? Our safe house! What is the matter with you?!"

"Izuku isn't like that!"

She ran her hand through her snow white hair.

"If he was like that, don't you think someone would've tried killing us already? He even had a bad reaction to finding out Shouto was a vampire. He isn't a hunter and he wouldn't snitch us out! He was so happy here!"

The man rolled his eyes.

"You didn't think like that with me."

His face fell some from the anger it had painted on but he looked away.

"You were different."

"So is he! Even Dabi likes him and Dabi doesn't like anyone! Everyone else liked him but you!"

"Rei-

She slammed her glass onto the kitchen table making him jump.

"Your son loves that boy!" Rei yelled, "I wouldn't fight for this if I didn't think Izuku was worth my time."

"Did he even consider becoming a vampire himself?"

"I was going to ask tonight!" she said throwing her arms into the air.

"We need more vampires in the world. There's probably only three thousand or so left."

"Fuyumi has had fifteen kids herself. Toya knocks up someone every month and Natsuo has a great family of thirty kids! If you want more vampires, we can make more!" Rei said, "We only had Shouto-

"I don't want anymore children. I'm already old..."

Enji looked at Rei with sadness in his eyes.

"Shouto's birth was already a miracle in itself."

"If you're so worried about the vampire race, then go knock some women up."

Rei stood up.

"You know I only want and love you. I can't do that with someone else."

She leaned over the sink staring down at silver metal.

"I'm sorry I can't have anymore kids but Shouto should be allowed to live his life as he sees fit. He picked a good person. Izuku isn't hateful. He isn't anything but a sweet boy."

Enji sighed, rubbing his temples.

"Izuku could've left a little bat lying there on the side of the road. He could've walked right past it and left it there. He could've decided being with Shouto was a bad idea after Katsuki acted like a fool and attacked them. No he didn't do any of that. He took Shouto home and fed him his own blood. He... he managed to drag Shouto into some bushes for cover with a hurt arm and called me. What more does he need to do to prove himself?"

"Leave it be, Rei."

"Fine. I'm taking a vacation."

"Rei-

She grabbed her purse, keys and her phone. She slammed the door behind her.

Sorry for this chapter being a little short but I felt like that was the way to end it. I have a general idea in mind what I want to do but it'll wait til next week probably.

I was thinking of posting my other Tomura x Izuku story on this site since I'm almost done with it and it's currently on AO3. Makes me teary eyed thinking about it lol I'll post another chapter of the The Transfer Student too!

I hope everyone is hanging in there and stay safe!
