9// Touya?

Shoto's POV

Is the thin burnt man that's laying in the hospital bed in front of me really my brother? Guess we'll find out when he wakes up. If he ever wakes up...
What have I done? Shinsou looks even more dead inside, Aizawa looks like he's having an internal fight, everyone's freaking out and it's my fault. I sit beside the bed next to Shinsou who has Touya's hand in his.
"What was y brother to you?" I ask probably sounding more aggressive than I should because I see him jump.
"You act like I was in some kind of secret relationship. Since we know Hawks had two kids with Touya and well Dabi." Oh god, he's right. I forgot about that, that must have been what Aizawa was thinking about when Dabi told us. Did he already know? Is that why they let him teach? "And anyway," Shinsou continues "I have my eye on someone else, who doesn't happen to be a villain who's 8 years older than me and has two kids." I see him look to the corner where Denki is standing. I look at him and he nods. "Yep, I got a thing for loud blonds" Ok he is 100% Aizawa's secret love child. We look back at the bed in silence. I few moments pass before Touya launches himself at us causing me to freeze the floor and Shinsou to fall off his chair. He laughs before groaning and holding his stomach which I see are wrapped in bandages. Recovery Girl walks out.
"I told him it was a bad idea but he didn't listen."
"Why didn't you just heal him?"
Izuku is right, it is her quirk after all
"You think I want to kiss bubbling boiling skin? And anyway he was on fire for the whole time until he finally went unconscious." She has a point. We all look back to the half-conscious man.
"I guess you want to prove that I'm Touya Todoroki until I'm stable enough to do the test? Well, this may not mean much to you but maybe to Shoto. Before you were born I was Dad's masterpiece and he'd train me for days on end with no stopping. You'd understand. Then he found out my skin couldn't handle my own quirk and I was tossed aside. I was happy looking after my younger siblings until that night when you were five. When mum was sent away." He reached a hand out and gently touched my scar. A faint memory of Touya crept back. I only saw him maybe once in my life but I remember him being kind and caring. I saw him laugh with my brother and sister has he gave them piggyback rides and tackled them in a wave of tickles. Everyone looked at me trying to understand and Touya's hand retreated back to the bed. I looked up tears swelling in my eyes.
"Dabi is Touya Todoroki. Dabi is my brother."


Sorry, I haven't posted in so long I was dragged away from my computer to stay at an apartment near the beach for a couple of days.
