Dabi's POV

Would they even accept an old villain as a hero in training? It's useless, but I'll try anyway.

I walked back to the building, seeing that everyone was now downstairs. No doubt Izu and I were going to be bombarded with questions. I hold back a sigh, frowning, and walked over to my boyfriend, who was sitting with the girls on the couch. Once behind him, I see the invisible girl jump up beside him and start to hound me with questions.

I walked around the couch, sat down in the spot next to Izuku that was bare, and pulled him into my chest. '' Ack- Dabi! '' He turned his head towards me and I just grinned down at him.

Izuku huffed and turned back around, and I see that Toga was now with them. She was giggling with that pink girl, pointing at us two and taking pictures. I glare at them and they shut up, running off.

Toga's POV

Mina and I ran off, and I grinned at her. '' Those two are so cute! '' She squealed.

'' Perfect black-mail! ''

'' For who though? The whole class saw them. ''

'' Shiggy didn't! He'll be pissed. '' I laugh. Mina and I were best friends, and she didn't care about my fangs like most people! I wont take her blood yet. She was close to me.

(Mina x Toga fans? A possible ship is in order, I'll need you cowards to pick if it'll happen.)

Izuku's POV

I was just sitting with the girls, Toga had recently come over, when Dabi sat down beside me and pulled me into his chest. I wasn't complaining, it was getting colder as Christmas got closer, but it was shocking to me.

Toga and Mina raced off somewhere, I didn't know where, but I assume it had to do with Dabi. I just shook my head and let him be.

While later, we had gotten ready for school and now we were just waiting for Kurogiri and Iida. For some reason, those two took the longest. Kacchan had gone ahead with Toga, Mina, Kirishima, and Denki.

We hear panting and Iida raced around the corner. '' Sorry I'm late! Let's get going now. ''

'' It's fine, Tenya, let's just go before Mr. Aizawa gets there. '' Sero walked up to him and I sensed something was happening with them. I just sighed and we started to walk to class.

I was walking with Dabi and he was just chatting about what to do later today. Shigiraki was on the other side, and I was quiet. What if something goes wrong? What if he decides to grab me and take me away to some other place? I hope nothing bad happens, I don't want to be separated from my new family. I wonder who this guest is, are they someone I used to know? Or someone new? I hope it's not someone new, that'll go bad...

'' Your muttering again. '' Shigiraki grunted. I jump, forgetting he was here.

'' Ah, sorry. Nervous habit that I need to break. '' I say, rubbing the back of my neck.

'' Don't stress about today, hun. It'll be fine, I'll be right beside you. '' Dabi put his hand on my shoulder and pulled me towards him. I just let out a nervous laugh.

Once we got to class, we sat down and chatted among ourselves when Sero said this loudly; '' Kami, dude, I just thought of something! Ladies and Gentlemen, overly formal and lengthy. Cowards, casual and fun, straight too the point. ''

'' Hanta, no-one calls people cowards! '' Iida does his hand-chopping thing, and I glance over at Ururaka. She looked back, her eyes wide. They were on a first name basis? That's new.

'' Alright, everyone. Quiet down. Today we're going to be learning about the first few heroes that we know. Tomorrow we're going to have a test on them. '' Mr. Aizawa walked into the room. Everyone quieted down and started to listen. Even though I was taking notes about the lesson, I was nervous about lunch-time. (Izuku can think about one thing and write about another in this AU, a talent I do not have)

Blinking a few times, I look at my work and saw that my hand-writing was messy and all over the place. I narrowed my eyes and flipped the page over, copying the notes and adding the new ones. All too soon, the bell for lunch goes and I stand up, packing up my things and watched as almost everyone left for lunch. Aizawa stayed in the class-room, along with Kacchan, Shigiraki and Dabi. We hear a knock at the door and Aizawa opens it, Shinsou and All-Might on the other side.

'' We are here! '' All-Might announces, grinning. He was in his buff-form, like usual. (Again, in this AU, All-Might still has his quirk, just a weak version)

I look over at Shigiraki, who was glaring at All-Might with a slightly hate-ridden glare. I sigh. He still hasn't gotten over it, has he?

'' Let's go now. Midoriya, we'll be right behind you. '' Mr. Aizawa says. I just nod nervously and we all leave the school grounds with quite a few people looking over at us. Soon we walking to the neighbour-hood that my 'father' lives in. I look around nervously, despite the people around me. Dabi must of noticed and grabbed my hand. I look up and he gives me a plain smirk.

'' So the bastard lives in this place? '' I look up and see Kacchan staring down a set of buildings. I just nod and start to walk down to the house I remember to be his. The lawn was messy and over-grown, house dirty, paint-chipped and mouldy. I look around at the place nervously and Dabi walked up beside me. I just smile slightly at him and he nods back. The only clear path was the drive-way and the way to the door.

We began to walk up to the crooked/broken door and I knocked, hearing shuffling around inside. I start to sweat from nervousness.

'' Ah, your finally here. '' My father opened the door and I stared at him. '' Don't you speak anymore? ''

Dabi glared at him before my father let us in. I hear the creaking of the door behind us and shiver.

'' Come, follow me. '' My 'father' leads us to the disgusting living room where there was a green-haired person there.

I looked closer, noticing that they were a female. She sparked a memory that I wanted to keep down.

~( Flash-back )~

'' Mom, please don't leave! '' I begged, crying as my mother grabbed her bags.

'' I'm sorry, Izu. Your father doesn't want me here anymore. I'll come back soon, don't worry. '' She bent down and kissed my fore-head. I hugged her desperately and she hugs back quickly.

'' I have to go before he sees me. I love you honey, don't forget that. '' Mom smiles at me and I smile back, despite the tears running down my face.

'' Bye mom. ''

'' Bye, sweetie. ''

~( Flash-back over )~

'' Mom..? '' I look at the green-haired lady.

'' Hello, Sweetie. '' My mother stands up from the couch and turns around, smiling sweetly.

AH! I'M SO SORRY FOR THE WAIT! The final chapter will be here soon, then I'll be focusing my writing on my other books. Once I at least have one of those books done, I'll start on the second book. Also, the 8k special (Which was due awhile ago), will be here soon, the Q&A will be on there soon so go and ask questions on the Author's notes: A/N, that name XD. Maybe at 20k I'll do a face reveal 👉👈
