Deku's POV

A BABY! If it's possible I might have actually been more excited this time than when they told us about Aiko. With her I just stared at them because I didn't really know how to respond but now that I'm older and I already know what to expect I jumped out of my seat and hugged Mom who laughed at my excitement. I couldn't contain myself even a little bit, my quirk was crackling around me but it wasn't long before I noticed bits of red and purple mixed in too, letting me know that Kacchan and Toshi were both just as excited.

We are in Kacchan's room because it's soundproof and of course Mom doesn't want anyone else to know until they find out the baby's gender.

I was practically hopping around the room dancing in my excitement while Aiko and Yuki looked a bit confused but they quickly joined in on the fun. It wasn't until they were ready to go home that we told them how to play "secrets" we explained that they couldn't tell anyone until they got to the Bakugo's house so they held their hands over their mouths to try and seal them shut and when the door was opened they ran out like that, their giggles escaping them regardless from the new game.

"I guess it's my fault for telling you right before bed, you can run on the track for no more than half an hour," Dad chuckled and we jumped at the chance, running out of the bedroom before Aizawa Sensei could stop us just outside the door. He looked irritated again as we ran past him and I don't want to be his focus while he is like that.

Before we were able to get that far though, the girls were right in front of the doors in the common room and Aiko was covered in blue energy and both her and Yuki were starting to cry and freak out. Looks like she got her quirk today too. Man, today is just a bit overloaded!

"Big brothers!" She cried out scared when she saw us, probably because she couldn't get the static like energy to stop and it was making it hard for her to breathe.

"It's okay, we have you," I tell her, getting down to her level, while smiling. "It's just because you're excited, look at us we are doing it too." I motioned at our bodies and now I could technically turn it off since I'm focusing but it would be better if I didn't, at least for now.

"Look at you all grown up," Kacchan lightly teased from next to me and Toshi picked Yuki up when I held out my arms for Aiko. Kacchan cleared the couch of his friends and we sat down, Kacchan in the middle while ignoring their staring eyes.

"But it hu-rts!" She hiccupped a little and I just smiled at her, letting her cuddle into my arms and ignoring the little zips and zaps as I did.

Kacchan snorted, "Who do you think you're talking to?" I felt him wrap an arm around my waist and I saw his other arm around Yuki who was still in Toshi's lap. Toshi scooted in and we were all scrunched together on the small couch with Aiko's blue energy still crackling around her. "Look, Yuki is playing with it. You're not hurting anyone, just take a deep breath."

"But Kacchan," Aiko cried before turning into my chest, trying to silence her sobs. I rubbed her back a little before getting an idea.

I started singing for her, it was technically a love song but it was her favorite song and by the end of it I reminded her how the three of us would destroy any boys that broke her heart.

Kacchan barked a laugh at my openness of murdering a villain but he didn't call me out on it. The girl's sleepy giggles were the only sound in the room, somehow even though they were on Toshi and my laps they both leaned into Kacchan, effectively trapping us all on the couch.

"Does it always hurt like that?" Aiko asked almost too quietly to hear and I tucked a loose curl behind her ear. Kacchan whispered in Yuki's ear and she ran to the door and brought Aiko's bag over. She was given her inhaler now that her quirk wasn't raging out of control, we'll have to talk to her doctor about her quirk affecting how she can take her medicine in the future but for now I just smile.

"Not really," I half answered her as she settled in more comfortably. "It just takes time to get used to, it's a part of Mom's quirk, where we just can't keep it all inside or it feels like we are going to explode. But there are cool things we can do with it. Like little light movies," I kissed her forehead and she looked up expectantly and I chuckled before adjusting her in my lap holding out my hands one above the other, my palms facing each other and letting my quirk rush only to my hands letting the energy crackle a bit before something like trees made of the green light appeared. Kacchan reached over with his and made a few big red flowers for the girls only for Toshi to make a large purple cat, the lights both fighting each other and working together to make the images as they moved but I could also feel how it was draining all the energy out of me by doing it in the first place. This is far more exhausting than running laps.

Toshi was the first to pass out, the playful purple cat disappearing, leaving the green plants and red flowers behind only for the red flowers to disappear shortly afterwards too. I let my hands go limp, knowing that I'll have to carry Toshi to his room and maybe Kacchan back to ours but it was worth it to see the girls smiling again before they fell asleep, Yuki comfortably back in Toshi's lap. I laid my head back for just a moment before I felt a small hand shaking my leg. I looked up again to see little Eri standing in front of us and she looked very shy but Kacchan spoke before I could.

"What's wrong little princess?" He yawned and I saw how she blushed at the cute nickname and decided that I should call her that for now.

"Can I sleep with all of you here?" She gestured to the couch we were all sleeping on and I looked across the room to see Aizawa Sensei talking to Mom and Dad by the door.

"Sure thing Princess," Kacchan helped her onto his lap so that she was between Aiko and Yuki and the two girls quickly hugged her, pulling her into their arms, Eri is supposed to be two years older than our sisters but looking at them all they LOOK to be the same age. I yawned and pulled the girls up and we all laid back again and we closed our eyes. No reason to look for an excuse for the girls to stay if Eri was asking for us now, now is there?

I don't know how much time passed before I heard an irritated grunt and when I cracked an eye I saw sunlight coming into the dorms. We really slept all night on the couch.

"You really slept all night on the couch for your sisters?" He looks absolutely confused but I just shrugged. Kacchan was the one to answer though.

"We don't make little girls cry, Asshole," he grumbled, stretching a little and the girls started waking up too.

I'm hungry big brother," the first thing out of Aiko's mouth before she even opens her eyes. I can't stop from chuckling a little, knowing full well that she wasn't talking to me or Toshi.

"Baths first, can you two help Eri in the tub? Show her how to put the towel around herself so that Toshi and Deku can help you, I'll make breakfast while you clean up," Kacchan answered with practiced ease. I could see Aizawa Sensei getting ready to argue when Yuki opened her mouth which in most cases would be fine but she just woke up. So…

"I don't want a bath!" Yuki crossed her arms and Toshi and I laughed when Kacchan picked her up and over his shoulder before he carried her out of the room. 

"Why in the fuck do you smell like rubbing alcohol? You can't use your quirk instead of taking a bath, Brat!" Kacchan huffed while she (pretended?) to fight him while the other two girls ran after him and I followed with Toshi. "You have two choices; bathe like a good girl in hot water or I will throw you into a tub by yourself in cold water! I mean are you trying to ruin your hair? Do you have any idea what the damage rubbing alcohol can do to your hair?"

"Poppycock! What does it matter if I get split ends or not?" She struggled, kicking her legs. Yuki is usually so quiet and well behaved that anyone that knew her wouldn't recognize her unless they knew how she hates to be woken up for any reason. She'll be better once she eats something but until then it's what Toshi and I call the Bakugo Switch.

Kacchan stumbled hearing the foreign word, "What the fuck is Poppycock? You really think you'll only get split ends? You'll be lucky if you don't go bald! Who in the fuck do you think I am? Who in the fuck do you think you are? You are a fucking BAKUGO now fucking act like one!" Kacchan was raising his voice and Toshi and I were laughing again while Aiko reassured Eri that Kacchan wasn't really upset, just confused.

"Kacchan, poppycock means nonsense," I spoke up and he grunted in annoyance.

"If you're going to fucking curse then curse! Don't pretend to be what you're not! That's not what a Bakugo does," Kacchan started lecturing her again and I saw Toshi roll his eyes.

"That's rich big brother," oh no. I know that tone and my eyes go wide at what I know is about to come. "Considering you gave up being a Bakugo before I was even born! You have so much to FUCKING say on it don't you?" Toshi, Aiko and I all face palm at her poor choice of words but Kacchan didn't respond again. He went into our room while the rest of us stopped at the door, no I am not going in there after that, none of us were. We heard the water turn on and after a few seconds there was a blood curdling scream and I knew that water had to be ice cold.

"Yuki deserved that, she is just jealous that she isn't a Yagi too," Aiko pouted and I can't blame her for being upset because the little girl she has always thought of as a sister just kind of cursed our name, in a very roundabout way.

"She's just tired, we all know how she is when she is woken up," I kneeled in front of her and patted her head. "I'm sure she is jealous, all of her brothers and her only little sister share the same last name. She must feel very lonely," I tried to put it in a way that she would understand and Aiko let out a sigh and nodded.

"Alright the tub is ready," I looked back up to see Kacchan soaking wet and I could also see places where there were still little pops from where the water was far too cold, and had met his sweat. "The brat is already rinsed off and in the tub sulking but if she wants to eat some time today I need to change and actually cook." He turned his attention back to the little girls in front of us, "Aiko, could you take care of Eri and Yuki?"

"Of course!" Aiko perked right up at being given such a grown up task. I reminded her to let Toshi and I know when they were ready for us to wash their hair and she quickly grabbed Eri's hand and pulled her to the bathroom and closed the door so we closed the bedroom door so Kacchan could change into some dry clothes. It didn't take long for him to leave again, it took much longer before Aiko called out that they were ready and Toshi and I walked into the bathroom to find the girls each wrapped in a towel so we could wash their hair for them.

By the time we were done Aiko "chased" us out so they could finish up and Toshi and I were talking in the open doorway when we realized that we didn't have any clothes for the girls here. I pulled out my phone.

Deku: So we didn't think about clothes?

Toshi: ?

Kacchan: YOU didn't think about clothes. Ponytail should be on her way to take their measurements. I gave her a design that I made.

Deku: Aren't they lucky, they get to wear the great Murder King Explosion's fashion.

Kacchan: Bite me!

Toshi: You realize that you two share a room right? You don't have to flirt so hard in the family chat group.

Kacchan: I repeat, BITE ME!

I laughed out loud after reading that, well with a blush, I'm sure but it was cute how Kacchan reacted when he was even a little embarrassed.
