It took five days to find Shoto and they met up at a older gas station on the outskirts of town, about a hour hour drive from Katsuki's house. "Shoto!" Once he saw his candy-cane looking friend, he ran over to him, the two Omegas hugging each other tightly, Shoto picking Izuku slightly due to his taller height. "Midoriya, are you okay?" Shoto asked, search his face and neck for injuries, slightly frantic. 

"I'm fine, Shoto" Izuku smiled and Shoto sighed, relieved to see that he wasn't hurt. Shoto then noticed Katsuki, Kirishima, and Momo standing by the car that they arrived in. Glaring at Katsuki, Shoto shoved Izuku behind him, trying to protect the smaller Omega from, what he knows, Izuku's aggressive Alpha.  Which Katsuki dropped his gaze from Shoto to the ground, sticking his hands into his jeans back pockets, leaning against the car.

"It's okay" Izuku grabbed Shoto's hand and they watched Momo walk over to Shoto, hugging the Omega in her arms, which Shoto returned the hug. "Let's go to somewhere more private" Momo suggested, which Shoto nodded, "I'll ride with Shoto and guide him to the house" Izuku stated and Momo nodded, going back over to the other Alphas, explaining their plan.

Upon arriving, Izuku and Shoto got out of the car, they hadn't discussed anything in the car trip. Walking up to the the door, Katsuki pulled out his keys, unlocking the door and letting them in. The air was a bit awkward as they settled. 

"I need to get back to Denki" Kirishima told Katsuki, who nodded, "I understand" Katsuki said. After saying his goodbyes, Kirishima left the house. 

Katsuki sighed as he sat onto the couch, hearing light chatter in the kitchen, assuming that Izuku was getting Shoto something to eat. "Drink" Sitting next to him, Momo handed him a bottle of water. Thanking her, Katsuki took it. 

In the kitchen, Izuku prepared Shoto a quick sandwich, which it didn't take long for the Omega to basically inhale the food. "Who's your Alpha?" Izuku finally asked after much hesitation. "A man named Inasa Yoarashi" Shoto answered, sighing afterwards. 

"My Alpha wasn't the reason I ran away" Shoto told him, "It was my father". Shoto took a drink before continuing, "My father doesn't like my fated, so he tried to get me to pair with another Alpha".

After their conversation, Izuku got Shoto settled into bed, giving him some of Katsuki's old clothes and some shower supplies. Walking into his bedroom, Izuku saw Katsuki sitting on his bed, and saw he was asleep. Izuku leaned over and kissed his forehead and for the first time in a while, he's excited for his future. 

Izuku laid down next to Katuski, dressed in a large t-shirt that he stole from Katsuki. Katuski, in his sleep, reached out and pulled Izuku in close, nuzzling into Izuku's nape, and Izuku soon fell asleep in his arms, sleeping peacefully.

The next day, Izuku and Katsuki sat on the couch, waiting for Shoto to come downstairs and they would take him shopping for clothes. "Ready" Izuku heard Shoto say as he got downstairs. He was wearing their old school shoes, the only pair he had and some jeans that tied to stay to his waist, a slightly too small plain dark green tee shirt, rather than Katsuki's that fell off of his frame.

"Okay, let's go"

The trip was a bit awkward. Shoto didn't know what to say to Katsuki and Katsuki didn't want to upset his Omega or his Omega's friend. 

But after getting enough outfits, they returned back to the house and began filling one of the spare rooms with the clothes. Katsuki let them be, wanting to give them some space to talk between each other.

Izuku sat on the bed as he watched Shoto put away shorts, he mind drifting off. But it came back when he watched Shoto put away something on the top of the closet, just out of the taller Omega's reach, causing the shirt to ride up on his back. 

It revealed large dark spots on his lower back, and he assumed there was more where the shirt hid them. "Are you okay?" Knowing that abuse was a slightly normal thing for Shoto, Izuku didn't want to upset him and took a soft approached. 

Quickly shoving his shirt back, he turned to Izuku, "It's fine, don't worry" Shoto said with a mixed expression. "Can I at least put medicine on them, or lotion?" Izuku asked and Shoto sighed before nodding. "Maybe It'll make it stopping hurting some" Shoto's voice cracked as he spoke. 

"Is that the reason you looked upset during the shopping trip?" Izuku asked as they made their way to Katuski's bathroom, where he has a first aid kit and arrays of different ointments and lotions. 

Izuku grabbed some as he told him to sit on the side of the tub, taking off his shirt. The bruises and the little cuts went all the way of his back. Quickly pushing the turning his stomach, Izuku began cleaning the cuts with an alcohol swab, Shoto hissing. After cleaning, he rubbed triple antibiotic ointment onto the cuts. "The cream will help with the pain" Izuku rubbed Arnica cream onto his back and they let it dry before putting his shirt back on. 

They turned as they heard footsteps enter the room, spotting Katsuki. "Everything okay?" The Alpha asked, spotting Izuku washing his hands and Shoto adjusting his shirt. "Yeah, just needed some ointment" Izuku say, giving him a look to not ask anymore, walking out of the room, Shoto following them.

"Have you mated with your Alpha?" Izuku and Shoto sat on the couch, talking over legal things, hoping to get his legal Alphan rights turned over to Katsuki. Sadly since most Omegas aren't viewed as humans and just sex and breeding objects, they don't have equal rights and thus have a thing called 'Alphan Rights'. Which is the Alpha that has your legal rights until you can live and be supported by your Alpha. 

Some Alphas that have their fated Omega aren't able to take over Alphan rights as it sometimes upsets their Omega. 

But with Katsuki's Omega being Izuku, he doesn't have to worry about that, since it was Izuku's idea. 

So they got to work getting paperwork for the legal rights transfer. It's quite easy with a willing Omega, but if the Omega (Who's getting their rights transferred) isn't willing and is fighting the process, it takes longer and more paperwork and giving reasoning for the transfer of an unwilling Omega's rights. Though if it's the rights holder changing it from themself to another, there doesn't have to be a reason.

"The final signing of the paperwork is next Monday" They had a get-together dinner after Katsuki's therapy appointment. Katsuki and Izuku worked as a duo cooking the food and Shoto  set the table and made sure they had enough clean dishes for everyone.

 "That's great!" Mina and Kirishima said in unison. "So, are you happy here, Todoroki?" Kaminari asked him, picking up his wine glass and sipping from it. "Yeah, I enjoy all the time I'm spending with Izuku" Shoto had a small smile, feeling a little nervous with all the attention towards him. "I'm glad you're happy here" Momo smiled at him, not wanting to ruin the mood with her questions about his family, well more, his siblings. 

Shoto's siblings have long since left their father's house and Shoto would've left sooner if he knew where to go once he left. He didn't know where he was going, but couldn't take it anymore. He's been in small contact with his sister, Fuyumi, a shy Beta, but, he hasn't talked to his other siblings in years. Toyua left a long time ago, and he doesn't remember much about Toyua. His other brother, Natsuo, never really talked to Shoto, avoiding him when he did live at the house.

As the night went on, so did the drinks. They got out more and more types of drinks and the night got a bit wild. Well, Shoto didn't much, just trying things here and there, nothing big. 

But as the night faded down, so did their energy. Katsuki and Kirishima deemed none of them sober enough to drive home, so they set up blankets and pillows on the floor in the living room. They shoved the couch to the side to fit the pallet. 

"What movie?" Katsuki asked, showing his streaming services, showing Netflix, Hulu, and Disney Plus. {Just using the ones I have} After discussing, they chose to watch Big Hero 6. 

Mina plopped down on the pallet, next to Sero and got herself comfortable. Kaminari curled up next to Kirishima, the Alpha having his arm wrapped around him. Shoto and Momo laid near each other, to be able to talk with disturbing anyone. 

 Katsuki sat down, leaving enough space between him and Mina. He wasn't sure if Izuku wanted to lay with him, and to make sure to not cross any lines, he just left enough space for Izuku to have plenty of space between the two Alphas. 

But to his surprise, Izuku sat right next to him, leaning into his as he placed the remotes in the middle of himself and Mina. Izuku saw Katsuki's nervousness and pulled his arm down, allowing Katsuki to pull him in closer, leaning his head on top of the Omega's.
