A/n- So, I'm going to just get this over with. For a few chapters, I'm going to focus on there relationship when their younger. So in these chapters, Bakugou is 7 and 9, and Dabi is 13 and 15. I honestly don't know how long this will go. I wrote this because I love this ship. Deal with it. If you don't like it, you can leave.

Touya Todoroki observes from afar with his two younger siblings, as the youngest plays with another boy. Shoto seemed more content than usual around him, like he could be himself without being pontificated by their father.

The boy, a little older than Shoto, had spiky, ash blonde hair. He had the most prepossessing red eyes, the color of rubies. They could put Shoto's Heterochromia eyes to shame when the sun hits them just right.

From what they could tell, the two boys were playing a game of tag. Touya could hear their conversations, and he supposes the little boy is a pompous asshole. It's surprising considering how young he looks.

The voice of Shoto crying out in pain, knocks him out of his thoughts. He quickly stood up from the ground and ran towards his brother. He kneeled before the 7 year old, and checked for any wounds. Luckily he found none.

Touya looks at the overgrown fire ant accusingly. "Hey! This wasn't my fault!" He yelled at him. He narrowed his eyes at the Blondie and looked back at his brother. "Shoto, you okay?" Touya asks with wariness. Shoto nods his head, as he pushes himself up off the ground. "I'm fine." He speaks softly, and he sets a hand on Touya's shoulder, giving him an almost unseeable smile.

Touya wouldn't admit it, but he felt relief wash over him knowing his baby brother was alright. The blonde walked closer to Shoto. Touya thought he was going to show affection to him, but no. He slaps the back of the half and half boy.

"TAG!" He exclaims, and then runs away. Shoto started to chase his friend. "That wasn't fair Katsuki!" Shoto yells after him.

So, his name is Katsuki.

Touya walks back to his other siblings and sits back down. They were both listening to music, and didn't really notice what unraveled. He kept his eyes on the two 7 year olds, making sure nothing bad happens to them. (Well, mainly Shoto)

——————————

The next time Touya saw the firecracker was 2 years after the play ground incident. There was a knock on the huge front door. Enji was gone on hero business, so he had to take care of the others. He went to the front door. He opened it up and somebody pushed passed him.

He didn't expect to see a head with spiky, blonde hair walk straight past him, like he owned the place. Touya kind of forgot about Katsuki. So, he immediately grabbed the others wrist and tugged it violently.

The red head was met with piercing red eyes, and a fierce snarl. "Let go bastard!" Katsuki yelled loudly. Footsteps could be heard, quickly making their way towards the two. Shoto ran down the stairs, and looked between the two boys.

First at Touya, then Katsuki, and then his brother's hand on his friend's wrist. His eyebrows furrow slightly. Katsuki yanks him arms away from Touya. "Hey Shoto..." He grumbles, clearly annoyed by the events of coming here.

The two boys leave the house, leaving a confused Touya behind.

What just happened?

—————————-

A little while later, he hears the front door open, and a loud voice booms throughout the house. A groan escapes Touya. He stands up from the couch of the living room and walks towards all of the commotion.

As expected, the annoying blonde is bragging about random shit, and Shoto listens intently, absorbing all the information like it was cold soba. He rolls his eyes, clearly annoyed with the two.

How does he find this guy interesting? He seems like an angry, self-absorbed, asshole. Basically Enji!

The thought of Katsuki being like his father made him hate the boy even more. Another thought crosses his mind. If his father comes home while Shoto has someone over, he's going to get really pissed.

"He should leave." Touya says, crossing his arms. Katsuki's attention went onto Touya. "And why the fuck should I?" Katsuki asks, irritatedly. He looks at Shoto knowingly. When realization hits him, his eyes widen slightly.

"I'm sorry Katsuki, but you do have to go!" Shoto says quickly, turning him around and pushing him towards the door. "What, why?!" Katsuki demands an answer. His face contorting from confusion to anger. As soon as they both reach the door, Katsuki's body hits something hard.

"Oof-" The impact made him fall back into Shoto, making him fall into Touya. They all end up on the floor. The three look up to a huge man with a deep, threatening scowl plastered on his face like it was glued on. Katsuki immediately recognized him as the hero Endeavor.

He hated him, no doubt. Quickly getting out of his daze, he got back up to look the pro hero in the eye. (As much as he could, considering how tall Enji is) Katsuki gave the pro hero his best death glare. His ruby red eyes are known to be very beautiful, yet also very intimidating to many people.

When Enji didn't back down, his own face contorted into a scowl as well, while an almost feral growl erupts from his throat. Touya couldn't help but be impressed with how long Katsuki could keep the glare and hold his own.

Shoto seemed to not be surprised, just a little scared of what Enji could do to his friend. The pro hero rolls his eyes, breaking eye contact. Katsuki silently cheers to himself. "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS BRAT DOING HERE TOUYA?!" Enji yells. Katsuki looks very offended. "IM NOT A BRAT YOU BITCH!" He yells back, making sure to flip him off for extra measure.

Shoto bites his bottom lip worriedly, and Touya has to hold in a laugh. "WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME?!" Endeavor shouts angrily. "WHAT ARE YOU, DEAF? YOU HEARD WHAT I SAID, LOSER!" Katsuki shouts back. Enji is about to loose his shit with this kid. He's basically vibrating in anger.

The hero didn't like Katsuki from the start. "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!" He yells, pointing out the door. Katsuki turns around and in a softer voice says, "See ya Shoto." He leaves the house, and Enji slams the door close. They both were quickly scolded.

————————————

A few months have passed since that day, and right now Touya is trudging through the forest. His skin was burnt on his arms, legs, and face. The 15 year old needed to escape from that Hellhole, and he finally had a chance to.

At first, Touya was reluctant on whether or not he should escape because of Shoto. He didn't want to leave him, nor escape with him. But he just decided he should escape now. Touya could tell he was slowly losing consciousness considering how he was slowing down, and his eyes felt heavy.

He neared a river that had a huge tree that could be used as a bridge to get across. He sat down in front of a boulder and rested his back against it. Touya soon drifted off to sleep. (More like daydreaming)

———————————

Katsuki and his "friends" walk towards the same river that Touya is daydreaming at. They started to cross the tree, with Katsuki chanting.

"Forward march and here we go! Members of the Agency Bakugou! Sai-AHHHHHHH!" Katsuki somewhat yells out, but is cut off as his foot slips. He plummets to the river, making a huge splash.

The water hits the back of Touya's neck and head, making him stir from his sleep. His state of drowsiness made the voices of young boys incoherent some. He opens his eyes and looks over the boulder.

Katsuki emerges from the river, coughing out the water that entered his lungs. "Are you alright?!" One of his "friends" yelled from the tree. "He's fine! Kacchan's strong!" Another one said back.

Truth be told, he wasn't fine. His lungs burned, his throat ached, his knees and hands were scraped by the rocks in the river, his heart was racing. He wouldn't tell them, but he was scared.

So he just looks back up at his "friends" and flashes them a smile, that says he was alright. Izuku Midoriya, one of his so called "friends", was almost immediately down there next to him.

The green haired boy reached his hand out to Katsuki. When he looked at his hand, his smile (that we NEED to protect)  was instantly gone. He furrowed his eyebrows, and put on his usual angry scowl. "I DON'T NEED YOUR PITY DEKU!" Katsuki exclaims as he slaps the other boy's hand away.

He stood back on his two feet, and preceded to walk through the water to shore, leaving a crying Deku behind. Unbeknownst to them, Touya was still watching. He saw the pained expression Katsuki made when he rose out of the river. Now he's wondering if he's the first one to see it.

He watched as the boys left, Katsuki leading. He relaxed back against the rock, closing his eyes. Touya is hoping he won't wake up tomorrow. He's hoping that death will take him in his sleep, making it painless.

That's not what happens though. Touya didn't anticipate to wake up, and he sure as hell didn't anticipate waking up to someone in front of him!
