Daddy is Mommy

"As Bakugo and Kirishima sit waiting in the agency owner's office for them to return from patrol, Kirishima begins to look around at all the pictures, bored. Suddenly, he freezes and points to a photo on the bookshelf."

"Kirishima leans over to Bakugo, pointing at the picture." "Is that who I think it is?"

"Bakugo picks up the picture, staring at his ex's smiling face." "What the hell! Why is Angie here?" "He couldn't believe he was going to be seeing his ex after four years of no contact, especially after how things ended between them."

"With a raised eyebrow, Bakugo glances at Kirishima before turning his attention to the young hero." "Yeah, we speak English. What's the deal?" "His tone is assertive, curious about the sudden inquiry."

"Bakugo follows Eddie, eyeing him curiously." "Dupli-Force, huh? What's with the sudden invite to the elevator? Got something to show us?" "His tone is laced with skepticism, but there's a hint of intrigue in his fiery gaze."

"Bakugo's expression darkens, clearly not pleased with the mention of his ex. He clenches his fists tightly before responding with a low growl." "What about her? Don't tell me she's part of this League of Villains crap." "He keeps his eyes on Eddie, awaiting his response."

"Bakugo's eyes narrow, his concern evident as he processes Eddie's words." "Victim? What the hell happened to her?" "His voice holds a hint of urgency, his mind racing with thoughts of Ren's safety."

"Bakugo's breath catches in his throat as he takes in the sight of Ren in the hospital bed, hooked up to machines. His heart clenches at the sight of the little boy by her side, wearing his hero suit pajamas. A mix of emotions floods through him - concern for Ren's well-being, surprise at the sight of the child, and a flicker of something softer that he tries to suppress."

"Damn it..." "he mutters under his breath, his fists trembling slightly at his sides. He steps closer to the bed, his gaze fixed on Ren's sleeping form." "What happened to her? And who's the kid?" "His voice is tight with worry, his eyes darting between Eddie and Ren."

"Bakugo's jaw clenches as he takes in the bruises on Ren's throat, his fists trembling with restrained anger. His gaze softens momentarily as he looks at Kaito, Ren's son, before hardening once again with determination."

"Tell me everything you know about this League of Villains and their leader," "he demands, his voice low and intense." "And what the hell they want with Ren and her son."

"Bakugo's eyes widen in shock as Eddie hands Kaito over to him, his arms automatically cradling the boy protectively. His heart pounds in his chest as he processes the revelation that Kaito is his son."

"Quirk-stealing bastards," "he mutters under his breath, his grip on Kaito tightening slightly in a protective gesture." "We need to find out everything we can about this League of Villains and their leader. And make sure Ren and Kaito are safe."

"He looks down at Kaito, a mix of emotions swirling in his eyes." "Hey kid, you're gonna be alright. Your old man's here now."

"Bakugo nods, his gaze flickering between Ren and Kaito. He exhales a deep breath, trying to push back the worry that threatens to consume him."

"Alright, keep an eye on her. We'll take care of this League of Villains situation," "he says firmly, before turning to Kirishima." "Get in contact with our agency back home and have them gather any information they can on these guys. And Eddie, I need you to find out everything you can about their leader's quirk-stealing abilities."

"He clutches Kaito closer to his chest, the weight of responsibility heavy on his shoulders." "We'll get to the bottom of this. And make sure Ren and Kaito are safe."

"Bakugo's heart aches at the sound of Kaito's cry, his protective instincts kicking in as he watches the little boy lean towards Ren. He sets Kaito down on Ren's bed next to her, gently patting the boy's back in an effort to soothe him."

"Don't worry Kaito, we're gonna get your daddy all patched up and home with you soon," "he murmurs, before turning to Eddie." "Thanks for letting us know about this. And for taking care of Ren and Kaito."

"He leans down towards Kaito, a soft smile on his face." "I'm your dad, buddy. And I'm not going anywhere."

"Bakugo's expression softens as he listens to Eddie's words, a pang of guilt tugging at his heart."

"Yeah, well... I guess I've got a lot to catch up on," "he admits, his gaze flickering between Ren and Kaito." "But I'll make sure they're both taken care of from now on."

"He straightens up, determination shining in his fiery gaze." "And I'll make sure whoever did this to Ren pays for it."

"With a final nod to Eddie, Bakugo turns his attention back to Ren and Kaito, his mind already formulating a plan to take down the League of Villains and keep his newfound family safe."

"Bakugo shoots Kirishima a scowl, his cheeks flushing slightly at the revelation."

"Yeah, well... Ren's always been good at keeping secrets," "he grumbles, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly." "But I'll make sure to set things straight from now on."

"He gives a determined nod, his gaze flickering back to Ren and Kaito." "Let's focus on taking down these villains first. We can deal with everything else later."

"With a final glance at Kirishima, Bakugo turns his attention back to Ren and Kaito, his mind already formulating a plan to keep them safe."

"Bakugo hesitates for a moment, torn between wanting to comfort Kaito and the knowledge that Ren needs rest. With a heavy heart, he reaches out to pick up Kaito, his arms enveloping the crying child as he tries to soothe him."

"It's okay, Kaito. We'll see your daddy again soon," "he murmurs softly, his voice filled with reassurance as he follows Kirishima and Eddie out of the room."

"As they make their way upstairs to Ren's apartment, Bakugo's mind races with thoughts of how to keep both Ren and Kaito safe in the midst of the looming threat of the League of Villains."

"Bakugo listens to Eddie's explanation, his heart sinking at the mention of Ren being the only one who could calm Kaito during his tantrums. He nods solemnly, taking in the familiar surroundings of Ren's apartment, now filled with memories captured in the photographs scattered around the living room."

"Got it. We'll make sure to stick to his routine," "he says, his voice soft as he watches Kaito's struggling form." "And we'll keep him safe until Ren gets better."

"As they settle into the apartment, Bakugo can't help but feel a sense of responsibility weighing heavily on his shoulders. With a determined expression, he resolves to do whatever it takes to protect Ren and Kaito from any further harm."

"Bakugo nods, grateful for Kirishima's willingness to take the couch or floor. He follows him towards Kaito's room, his heart pounding in his chest at the sight of his own hero merchandise scattered around the room."

"Damn... I had no idea," "he murmurs, a mix of emotions swirling within him as he takes in the picture of him and Ren on the nightstand." "But I'm glad he's got something that makes him feel connected to me."

"With a final glance around the room, Bakugo turns his attention back to Kaito, determined to be there for his son in any way he can."

"Bakugo's heart swells with a mixture of emotions as he watches Kaito crawl into Ren's bed, pulling Ren's hoodie over his head before curling up and falling asleep. He steps closer to the bed, his gaze soft as he takes in the pictures of Ren and Kaito, as well as a few of himself."

"With a gentle smile, Bakugo reaches out to brush a strand of hair away from Kaito's sleeping face, his heart warming at the sight of his son finding comfort in Ren's presence."

"You're gonna be okay, kid," "he whispers softly, his voice filled with tenderness as he watches over Kaito and Ren, determined to protect them both no matter what."

"Bakugo hesitates for a moment, torn between wanting to be with Ren and staying with Kaito. He looks back at Kirishima, a conflicted expression on his face."

"Yeah... yeah, that might be best," "he murmurs, grateful for Kirishima's offer." "Keep an eye on him for me, will you? I'll go check on Ren."

"With a nod of gratitude, Bakugo quietly slips out of Kaito's room, his mind already racing with thoughts of how to help Ren recover and keep their family safe."

"Bakugo steps into Ren's room, his heart skipping a beat as he sees her awake, her eyes not as glazed over as before. He approaches her bedside, his gaze filled with concern."

"Ren..." "he starts, his voice soft yet filled with emotion." "How are you feeling?"

"Bakugo's heart sinks at Ren's tired expression, understanding her struggle to communicate with the ventilator in place. He reaches out to gently squeeze her hand, offering what little comfort he can."

"It's okay, Ren. Just focus on resting and getting better," "he murmurs softly, his voice laced with concern." "We'll take care of everything else."

"With a reassuring smile, he settles into the chair beside her bed, determined to stay by her side until she falls back asleep."

"Bakugo's heart skips a beat as Ren reaches for his hand, her gentle squeeze speaking volumes despite her inability to speak. He returns the squeeze, intertwining his fingers with hers, a sense of warmth spreading through him."

"I'm here, Ren," "he murmurs softly, his voice filled with tenderness." "I'll stay right here with you."

"He leans in closer, his gaze never leaving hers, silently offering his support and reassurance as they navigate through this difficult time together."
