It was early hours in the morning. Both parents were wide eyed and awake. Julieanne and Youta decided to start their day at 05:00. The two babies were babbling towards each other sitting in their plush donut seats. Shouta decided to change into his hero outfit. Katrina tapped her fingers against her coffee mug, "What exactly is this about? Are you allowed to tell me?"

Shouta moved his hair from underneath his scarf, "It's about a yakuza organization. Sir Nighteye's agency have been keeping tabs on them. Apparently they have a weapon that is similar to my quirk. Also they have child who seemed to be abused."

Katrina's heart sunk, "W-what? Shouldn't- Shouldn't I come as well? I mean I am still a pro hero and have an active license. I... I can help with the child. If she is abused, I-."

Shouta placed his hands on his wife's cheeks. His thumbs lightly grazed her skin. Her heart sunk further when he spoke, "If we need a healer, I will ask, no demand for you to be brought in. For now, I want you to be here with our children. Today would just be a meeting about the details of the situation. I know you work really well with children. I've seen that a million times over but when we get to it, I'll have Sir Nighteye bring you in, okay? Mic can watch these two when it comes to it."

Katrina felt defeated. She looked away from her husband to her twins who were now fighting over the torn giraffe. Shouta spoke softly, "Look at me, Kat."

Katrina slowly turned her gaze back on him. His lips touched her forehead and she closed her eyes at the contact. He pulled away cradling her face in his hands, "Didn't you say you needed to go to the store today?"

Katrina placed her hand ontop of his and nodded, "Yeah, the two tore up that giraffe. I have to get them two of the same toy now since we didn't know if both of them would like it."

The auburn haired woman didn't feel the coolness of his ring on his finger. She spoke quietly, "You put it back on the necklace?"

Shouta removed his hands and moved a hand towards his ring inside of his shirt. The silver band rested on the palm of his hand, "Of course, where else would it be?"

Katrina lightly traced the circle of metal. Katrina mumbled, "Oh I don't know... I just liked it on your finger for that short while."

Shouta's lips twitched. He placed a hand behind her head and pulled her close. Her hand closed around his ring holding it between the two. His words mumbled into her hair, "At least I can see your ring resting on your finger. You have no idea how happy that makes me feel."

Katrina felt her lips twitch upward. She nuzzled her face into his scarf till she was able to find his bare neck. Her lips touched his adam's apple. Shouta pecked the top of her head before pulling away. He fixed his scarf to hide his neck from his wife, "Don't do that. We don't have time for that."

Katrina winked, "If we were younger, we would."

Shouta rolled his eyes, "Mind dropping me off before you head out?"

Katrina looked over at the twins and seen the giraffe took flight across the room so the twins were eating their fists. Katrina bumped her hip into her husband's, "Well help me get them ready then we can leave."

The father of two nodded. He started to make a beeline picking up Julieanne who squealed in happiness. He lightly blew a raspberry onto her stomach which made the squeals louder and giggles follow after. Youta saw his mother come towards him and cooed happily while pumping his arms up and down. Katrina gave a smile to her oldest and swooped him up, "Let's get you two ready so we can take papa to work!"


Katrina tapped her fingers on the steering wheel. She parked in front of Sir Nighteye's agency. Both adults looked up at the tall building. Katrina didn't tear her eye away from it even when other heroes were entering the building, "Promise you'll let me know if I am needed, right?"

Shouta tore his gaze away from fellow pro heroes to his wife. He tugged on her ponytail, "Of course."

Katrina finally tore her gaze away to look at the hair abuser. Katrina's fingers kept themselves occupied on the steering wheel. Both babies were cooing at their reflections in the baby seats. Shouta leaned towards his wife, "Be safe or I'll have you sleep at Mic's."

Katrina smiled widely, "That's hardly punishment. The man will let me give him a spa day. I am sure you remember him flaunting the nail polish I painted on his nails."

Shouta lightly shook his head, "Fine just be safe. I'll say bye to the two after I am done with you."

Katrina's lips shaped into an 'O'. Her face held amusement, "Done with me? Now that sounds like someone would say for punishment."

Shouta's lips turned upward and he leaned forward. His soft lips touched hers. She responded back with a smile on her face before pulling away, "Go on before Sir Nighteye will have either of our heads."

Shouta mumbled, "I'm early."

Katrina bopped him on the nose, "Yeah and I'd like to beat other mothers for the sale. Hizashi told me about the sale a couple days ago."

Shouta snorted as he unbuckled himself. He exited the car to go towards the backseat from the outside. Both babies stopped what they were doing and stared at their father. He smiled softly, "Be nice to your mother, okay?"

Julieanne was able to grab hold his scarf that dangled in front of her when Shouta leaned over her to give Youta a light ruffle of his peach fuzz hair. Julieanne squealed putting the scarf in her mouth. Katrina leaned behind her driver seat to see her daughter happily gnawing on the scarf. Katrina chuckled, "Julieanne, stop that."

Shouta moved to his daughter and he tried to get his scarf out of her mouth, "Give papa his scarf, Julieanne."

He didn't want to hurt her so he couldn't pull hard on the scarf. An excited shout came from Shouta's right, "Oh?!"

Katrina glanced through the window seeing Ryuko heading towards the car. She peeked inside the backseat getting into Shouta's space. The dragon quirk user cooed at them, "Oh you two must be Gracie's little ones. Oh Eraser, they're so cute."

Shouta mumbled, "Give me a second, Dragoon. Julieanne, papa has to work. Let go."

Julieanne finally released his scarf. He held up his drool soaked portion of his scarf. He let out a haggard sigh, "I should just give her own. Give her yours, Katrina."

Katrina teased, "But she doesn't like mine. It isn't her father's."

Dragoon slowly was pushing Shouta of of the opened backseat. She waved her gloved hand at the wide eyed twins, "Hello there, you two look so much like your parents."

Shouta grumbled, "We better head inside, Dragoon."

Ryuko stood up straight, "Right we do."

She gave a soft smile to the now cooing children. She waved them a good bye, "I'll see you two later. Bye Gracie."

Katrina chuckled, "Bye, Dragoon."

Dragoon finally left the little family. Shouta leaned his head against his arm against the car. He peered in to look at his children, "Behave you two. I know you understand me."

The twins responded with their father's trademark crazy smile. Both giving him a babble of incoherent sounds. Shouta looked up at his wife, "Be safe. I'll call you when we are done."

Katrina's smile disappeared. She nodded, "You be safe too. I'll see you."

Shouta closed the door and tapped the roof of the car. Katrina watched her husband with his shoved hands in his pockets walk inside. Katrina let out a slow breath.


Katrina packed the twins up in their stroller. Youta was kicking at the toys dangling from his carrier hand bar. Julieanne was content on gnawing on her fist. Katrina huffed, "With all this chewing you two are doing, I feel you are going to get your baby teeth soon even though you two are young."

She pushed the pram through a hoard of mothers with their screaming children. Katrina felt her eyebrow twitch. She glanced down at her quiet children. She breathed out, "I am so glad you two take after your father. Not saying I was a screaming child but... I'm more eccentric than he is..."

Katrina finally pushed her way through the mothers to a toy section. Katrina blinked at the selection of plush. Her lips pursed. She picked up an All Might doll then a Present Mic doll. She placed the All Might doll down and picked up an Endeavor doll. Katrina scrunched up her nose. Katrina shook her head, "These are all popular heroes. Sure, I understand your uncle as no one can forget about him. There has to be some smaller heroes out here."

Katrina looked all around the plush bin finding the Best Jeanist, Kamui Woods, and even Recovery Girl. Katrina frowned picking up Present Mic doll, "Fine. I shouldn't get too upset for not finding your father but this really bums me out."

She grabbed two Mic dolls and placed it in the store shopping bag hanging off the pram. Katrina looked around to see if there are any types of dolls for them to chew on. She pushed the pram forward and went into next aisle. Her face brightened when she found a neckerchief. Her lips turned upward as she grabbed it off the hook. She showed it to her twins who stared at her curiously. She pointed to the grey neckerchief, "Look it's just like papa's! Maybe if you wear this, you can leave his alone. How about it?"

Julieanne reached for the neckerchief. Katrina watched her daughter feel the fabric then the rubber end. As she saw her daughter about to put it in her mouth, she quickly swiped it away from her, "Let me pay for it first, young lady."

Katrina tried to see if it gained her son's interest. He blinked at it and didn't make a move for it. Katrina puffed out her cheek, "Okay, maybe not for you."

She put the neckerchief into the shopping bag. She perused the selection of teething toys. Katrina grabbed a teether rattle and held it in front of her son. She saw his eyes sparked interest. He reached for it. Immediately the boy shook it around and let out a happy coo. Katrina smiled before taking the toy away, "Alright that's for you then."

Before either child started crying for the lost of their new found toys, Katrina went into the diaper bag and placed a pacifier in each other mouths. Katrina looked amused, "Not today, you two. Alright, let's pay for these and head home."
