Chapter 22
Nico
I eventually get better enough to go back to the dorms, and immediately, Aizawa is calling me to his office.
Katsuki sat next to me, and Aizawa gave him a look but didn't say anything. I don't think he was supposed to be in here.
"So first off, I'm glad you're okay. Second off, if you leave my care again, I will be putting you on severe lockdown, got it?" He threatened, and I nodded, laughing awkwardly.
"Yes, sir." I say, and he nods and then sends someone a text, and soon the door opens.
"Touya!" I say standing, and he smiles a bit and ruffles my hair.
"Hey, glad you're okay, Nico." He says then sits down next to me.
"Touya told us everything. He even told us... about being related to Endeavor, we convinced the commission. To release him under our care. He will be an assistant teacher in a way. He's just helping us with small things here and there. " He explains I smile a bit relieved.
"How did Todoroki take it?" I ask, and Touya hesitates.
"He took it well. He's in shock right now, so I'm giving him space, " he explains, sighing.
"Understandable." I say, and Aizawa shoots Touya a look, confusing me.
"Touya." He says, and Touya sighs, and I raise an eyebrow
"I lied. I haven't told him." He states, and I frown
"Why not?" I ask sorta snappy. Katsuki grabs my hand.
"Nico." He says, but I ignore him, and Touya looks defensive.
"How on earth do you start a conversation with. 'Hey Shouto, I'm your long lost brother you thought was dead. I'm also part of the villain league that harassed your class and kidnapped 2 classmates at different points.' Think about it, Nico." He says, and I take a deep breath.
"I get your point, but you need to tell him. My older sister is actually dead, but you know how thrilled I'd be to find out she was actually alive? Even if she was a villain. Not to mention you're changing your path and trying to be better. I don't know Todoroki that well, but if he's anything like me. He'd just be happy you're alive." I say he looks down.
"He's right, you know." Aizawa states, and Touya nods, sighing.
"Go get him for me. Bring him here." He says, and I look at Katsuki, and we get up.
"Wait, Nico, you're excused from classes until Recovery Girl says. Bakugou, you, on the other hand, are not and have clean up duty for the next month." He says, and Katsuki turns to protest.
"Don't make me tell your parents. I already have to explain to the press that my class was attacked again. Don't make me tell your parents you left school without permission and did hero work illegally." He states, and Katsuki shuts his mouth.
I snort, and he elbows me and agrees to the terms, and when we leave, I take a deep breath.
Katsuki face palms groaning, and I give him a confused look
"I just fucking realized something." He mutters and I frown as he glances at me.
"I haven't told my parents I have a boyfriend." He says, and I freeze.
"They won't care, right?" I ask nervously, and he chuckles, ruffling my hair.
"No, Zombie Boy. They won't care, I'm just gonna get a lot of shit for not telling them, mainly from my mom. They already complained that I don't talk to them enough." He says amused, and I nod relaxing
We head back up to his dorm, and when we get inside, I immediately flop on his bed.
"I missed a comfy bed. The league beds sucked." I groan, and he chuckles and lays next to me.
"I'm so fucking happy your back. I...." Katsuki starts, and I look over, and he seems to be battling what to say.
"I'm sorry." I whisper, and he turns, and I sit up.
"I just wanted to save Percy, Hazel, and Reyna. Shigiraki kept infiltrating my mind, giving me these visions...and one of them constantly haunted me. " I say, bringing my knees to my chest, hugging them.
Katsuki sat up and scooted closer and motioned me to continue, and I sighed.
"Demigod dreams most of the time, predict the future. I know now it was Shigiraki playing with my mind, but at the time, I didn't know what to believe. But... the dream I kept having was you screaming and jumping off a roof. Over and over again... I kept having this dream. Shigiraki was just threatening that this would be my reality if I didn't listen." I admit, and he was silent for a minute.
I rest my chin on top of my legs, and Katsuki pulls me in his arms and rests his head on mine.
"Promise me something?" He asks, and I look up, and he he looks down at me.
"Tell me next time you have a dream like this, any nightmare you have come to me. We can deal with it together, alright?" He asks, and I smile a bit
"I swear on the River of Styx." I say, and he leans down and kisses me.
"Look at you being sweet." I mumble, and he snorts and playfully shoves me.
"Your fault asshole." He says, and I laugh a bit seeing him fight a smile.
"You think Todoroki will take the news, okay?" I ask, and he shrugs.
"I don't fucking know how he'll react. The only thing I do know is he was a kid with Touya, 'died'." He says, and I hum.
"I should have been more understanding with why Touya was hesitant, but when it comes to siblings, I get defensive. People don't realize how much they mean to you until their gone. I know you don't have any, but -" He stops me
"Dek- Izuku, if something happened to him... I'd probably lose it. I know I've been a dick to him, and I'm trying to make up for it, but I see him as my brother." He says, and I smile hearing this.
"Does he know this?" I ask, and he nods.
"When you left... I fucking spiraled for a moment and he was there for me, when I went looking for you I apologized to him for everything." He says and my heart clenched for a second remembering what I did effected him pretty bad.
Atleast a good thing came out of this.
(This is random but please cherish your siblings. I have a little brother he is only 2 years younger[ I'm 20 now and he's 18] but we were always at each other's throats but one thing for certain, I love him more than anything on earth. I tell you what if someone bullied me when we were younger my brother was the first to my defense. I was at the bus stop once and waiting for his bus and I got shoved by this bigger guy in my class [I'm 11 and my brother was 8 that next month would be 9] and my little brothers bus pulled up and he saw what happened through the window and when that bus came to a stop he shoved pass everyone and tackled the guy to the ground wailing on him saying "Don't you touch my sister!" My friend and I had to drag my brother off before he got in trouble but my point is. No one besides him and now my fiancé have ever defended me like that. A sibling bond is so important and if I lost my brother I'd probably crash. So if you have a sibling. Don't forget to tell them you love them)
I rest my head on his and he suddenly pulls me into his lap and I blush darkly and he holds me tightly around my waist .
"Are you hungry?" He asks and I shrug.
"Kinda? I'm nor craving anything." I say and he brings out his phone.
"We can doordash something." He says and I tilt my head
"Doordash?" I ask and he cracks a grin.
"I forget your like 80." He snorts and I elbow his stomach causing him to laugh.
"I honestly lost track. Isn't the year different here than in my world?" I ask and he hums.
"What year is it in your world?" He asks and I think
(I might get this wrong but I'm trying to math. Rick's books don't specify not I did find someone who took their official birthdates and made it line up with the storyline of the books to find out years. I'm going off of that. Again this is not confirmed just a rough put together.)
"2019?" I say and he laughs at this looking very amused.
"It's 2172." He says and my jaw drops hearing this and he chuckles.
☆A/N again I'm just using things I find from Google.
"So my age is what here?" I ask and he is quiet for a second before he gives me a stupid grin
"In your world you're 87 and in mine your 240 years old." He says and I face palm.
"Yippe." I mutter and he snorts leaning over me.
"You're 15 almost 16 physically we can probably have Aizawa get you legal documentation so you won't have issues in the future." He said and I nod.
"I realize I don't have birth certificate or anything. At Camp Half Blood and Camp Jupiter, I never had to worry about that stuff, I also used to shadow travel everywhere, so I didn't need a passport or ID." I admit and he snorts.
There's a knock on the door, and Katsuki gets up and opens it.
"Is Nico in here?" I hear Aizawa ask and I stand up coming to the door
"I knew you'd be here, I went to your room and had no answer. Better not be up to anything." He says and I blush darkly and Katsuki chuckles quietly
"I promise we aren't we just been talking about everything. Did you need something?" I ask and he nods
"I'd like to talk to you privately. PRIVATELY." He says emphasizing on private looking at Katsuki.
"I get it, I get it." He snorts annoyed and I give him an amused look.
"I'll be back." I say and I leave and we head to my room.
He sits in the chair next to the bed I sit on my bed.
"Did I do something wrong?" I ask and he chuckles.
"No I just wanted to ask you something without prying eyes, I know Katsuki means well but some things should be handled with out other people present." He says and I laugh a little.
"I get it, so what's going on?" I ask and he hands me some papers.
"You are going to staying here and since your what 15?" He asks and I nod.
"I turn 16 January 28th. If we go off the year I was born in 1932 id be 87 in my world, and according to Katsuki, I'd be 240 here." I say with an amused tone, and he pauses processing that.
"Well, we're just going off your physical age, okay?" He says, and I laugh.
"Got it, anyways what are these?" I ask and he takes a deep breath.
"Look Mic and I have grown fond of you. We were both worried sick when you disappeared and since you're 15... physically. You do need a legal guardian." He ask and I pause looking up quickly at him then I look at the papers.
"You want to adopt me?" I ask, quietly a bit in shock
"If you'd let us. If not we would technically have to put you in the system . It is the law, but we don't want to, and we do care about you." He says, and I felt a wave of emotions hit me and tears welled up in my eyes.
I didn't know what came over me but I lean in and give him a big hug catching him off guard.
He slowly hugged me back and bury my head in his shoulder as I whisper
"Yes."
