"Is Shohei still not coming to school?" Sero asked Hoshiko as she walked into class alone. She just gave them a small smile- unlike her usually big toothy grin.
"Yeah, and Aizawa sensei as well?" Jirou questioned as they watched her settle in her chair. It was a rainy Monday, a week after the incident in Hosu; a week after the near death and capture of the Hero Killer Stain.
Deku, Iida and Todoroki were also caught in it, only farther from where your destruction occurred. They went face to face with Stain, fighting their lives as well.
They sustained injuries and were somewhat reprimanded. That was when the three saw their homeroom teacher once again in bandages as he talked to them about their situation, ignoring their questions about his.
"There was another villain that needed to be handled in another area near there." Was all Aizawa explained to them before leaving their room.
For the two days the three had stayed there, they hadn't seen or heard from Aizawa. As far as they knew, he was injured as well. A little more roughed up than them.
They stayed in Hosu Hospital for two days before being released and allowed to go back to class, only to find out their homeroom teacher and classmate hadn't come back yet.
That was a week ago. What happened to them now? What happened to you?
Hoshiko sighed and prepared for class, quietly. The class was extremely concerned.
Hoshiko was usually the loud and bubbly one... and now she had gone quite quiet.
Three days after the incident, they learned that Present Mic and Hoshiko went to visit Aizawa and Shohei, only to come back... quieter.
Hoshiko was usually the loudmouth in the class, the one who was almost always called out for being a little too noisy or a little too rowdy. She was the jokester and the only bold one to even try to tease and bully (in a joking and not too serious manner) Bakugou.
But she wasn't that Hoshiko at the moment.
Her sudden tone down was worrying. Although she would still joke around, but not as much as before.
"Hoshiko?" one of her classmates called to her.
She turned to them and gave a small smile. "Quit being a worrywart will ya? Hei's just gotten a cold and decided to stay home... like the baby he is."
Deku looked at his classmates worriedly, "do you think someone's seriously hurt? Because I think someone is." He saw the agreeing faces.
"Oh quit worrying!" Bakugou growled. "Aizawa-sensei's probably got hero things to do and that stupid tiny brat he called a son might just actually be snoozing in bed! Quit making a big deal!" He grunted, taking a seat and looking at the faces of his classmates. "Of all we know fucking half'nhalf here might just have those monthly mood swings."
They looked over to Hoshiko, but still no attempt to joke around Bakugou. For a week, she been like that since their visit in the hospital. Present Mic had toned down as well, still loud, but there wasn't much life anymore. Like he was trying so hard to pretend to be happy. Even Midnight had lost her flare.
Something was really wrong.
"Do you think-"
"Morning." Aizawa's hoarse voice made them look at him in surprise. He was back, walking to his seat tiredly.
They crowded him, questioning him what had happened and why he and Shohei was gone for a week. He just looked up at them with his glowing eyes, hair floating up. He glared at them darkly, "Its too early for this." They backed off and he sighed, "Sorry... its been a rough week... nothing you kids need to stick you nose into... ." He told them and headed to his desk and readied his lecture material, looking at how Hoshiko had been for the morning.
"Nice to see you're back." She said, "Heihei's still got that cold?".
"Yeah..." he answered sadly.
The school day was quite gloomy. There wasn't much noise made by either of the two, which made the class awkward.
Their lunch was spent like usual, but with the absence of you or Shohei... it just made things sad or plain.
"Something really happened." Ochako pouted as she looked over to them. "Look how gloomy they are." She, Deku, Iida and some of the other students who sat nearby stared at the gloomy sight.
Deku nodded, "Yeah... they're so quiet... even Mic Sensei."
"You 1-As really like to put their noses in businesses they aren't suppose to, huh?" Shinsou gave them a glance before heading to the table, where the three just waved at him.

"Is this all I've missed?" All Might, who just got back from his little trip to the states, stood in the teacher's lounge, looking through all the papers.
"Oh and you have two new students in 1-A." Nezu smiled at him. "They're pretty jumpy... so don't try to overwhelm them with your enthusiasm... its been a rough week for them."
All-Might laughed, in his usual muscles form. He coughed and turned to his skinny form when he saw in the paper given the two new students. His brow quirked up at the sight of the names of the kids.
He walked out of Nezu's office and walked over to Aizawa, who was working on his desk, eyes glued to the screen. It was kind of unusual to see, knowing he'd usually nap things off during vacant time.
"A-Aizawa?"Â Yagi called. I'll call him AllMight when in buff form and Yagi in skinny form
The tired man looked up at him with bloodshot eyes, a bigger than usual frown on his face as he raised a brow. "You're back." He sighed, turning his chair to face the tall man. "What is it?"
Yagi chuckled nervously. Looking at the files of the two new students. His eyes were on the wrds in bold, spelling out 'Shohei Aizawa'. The blonde looked up down at the seated teacher.
"I just got the files on the two nee students... is there any chance-"
"Yes." He didn't even let the man finish. It was obvious by the student file in the blode hero's hands. "Shohei Aizawa is my son-" Yagi choked on his own saliva or the blood he'd usually cough out. "-he recently started living with me... and due to villain activity that had recently occurred, he was able to prove himself worthy of joining 1-A. Nezu said so himself." He explained nonchalantly. "And Hoshiko Yamada is Mic's kid... its more of a foster thing than biological."
The thin man had a coughing fit. He fixed his posture and gave the man a smile, "Anything I should know before meeting them later?" He was quite excited to see the new students, filled with curiosity
"Don't mention anything about family..." Aizawa's cold glaze sent Yagi into another coughing fit. "They've had a rough week... Shohei's still absent while Hoshiko's not in her best self right now and may not even participate in whatever you plan for them today." Aizawa turned back to his laptop, "I'll be supervising your class for today as well... just to check up on the girl... so.. yeah... don't be too enthusiastic towards her at the moment."
Yagi gave a nervous smile, thanking the man before walking off to his desk. "Hey Mic." Yagi called, but then saw that Yamada was napping on his desk, which was unusual becase he was usually the one working and finishing up his other paperwork during his vacant time.
Yagi's brows furrowed and haded to his own desk, muttering: "I feel like I have missed a lot."

By the time the hero training started, the class hyped up a bit, seeing AllMight.
They all seemed so excited when Allmight walked in, always happy to see the number one hero. They seemed to have missed him so much that they've actually forgot about their worries of Shohei, you and Hoshiko's obvious tensing at the ight of Allmight.
The class was quite surprised to see Aizawa just there supervising. Allmight was quite anxious, seeing as Aizawa was actually listening and not just napping.
"Mr. Aizawa!" Mina raised a hand, smiling at Aizawa while AllMight was still preparing. "Where's (Y/n)?"
"(Y/n)?" AllMight turned to Aizawa.
It was obvious how Aizawa's eyes twitched slightly, he almost forgot he was talking to his class that he might have ended up showing his soft side to them. He sighed heavily, "She will not be joining classes any time soon... there are some personal matters being handled." He then turned to Allmight and told him to continue with his announcement
"Now you understand what we'll do today, any questions?" Hoshiko shot her hand up. "Yes, young Yamada?"
"Sir may I please be excused from the activity? I'm not feeling well."
AllMight, still being a clumsy, awkward teacher, didn't know how to respond. Usually students never pass on an opportunity to use their quirk and have hero training, so it was his first time handling this type of situation.
"But-"
"You may go to the clinic and get yourselves checked by Recovery girl... and make sure to bring back a clinic slip." Aizawa cut him off as Hoshiko nodded and walked out of the classroom, leaving the class in an awkward silence. The dark haired man turned to AllMight, "Let's continue."
"Ye-yes."

Life without you was plain. Aizawa wondered how he managed to live before you came stumbling into his life.
The day was slow and tedious. It was boring and cold.
Without you in the faculty, it seemed everyone was quiet. Seems like everyone missed you.
He couldn't nap. He couldn't really distract himself with napping or cat videos, so he'd busy himself with his work. He missed you watching him type away in his laptop and those little moments when you'd point out those red squiggled lines under a misspelled word, happy to be his little typo helper.
He missed you.
"You'll just explain it to her... she's faster than most, so she'll catch up." Rosefield explained. "She needs to understand why we have to do this... if not, then she'll feel betrayed."
Aizawa stood by the door to your room, he was feeling quite excited to see you, but he dreaded the news he was going to give you.
"You don't need to say it right away." Rosefield said, a hand on his shoulder. "You can take your time, have fun with her... then just try to ease up the conversation... explain that you'll still see her... just not as often..."
Aizawa looked over the window to look at you, staring blankly at the wall. "Do I still need to tell her that she's staying here?" The lady nodded. "What about the schedule? How will that be done,"
"Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday will be you schedule, but we can always change it if anything gets complicated... you can stay for as long as you want, but try to hit to her the distancing..."
Aizawa placed a hand through his hair. "Can I have an over night here at least every Saturday?" He asked. "Just Saturday nights?"
"Sure... that'll work."
"Ok then..."
He hated recalling the moment he walked in there. It started off so good. So happy.
His fingers typed faster, pressed onto the keys a little harder.
You were happy. Your big wide eyes, cute chubby cheeks were rosy as you smiled happily. Your tight hugs and the way you leaned on him as he spent his time with you before breaking the news.
"Daddy?" You called as you saw him get up after giving you a kiss on the head. "G-going... going home?"
Aizawa turned to you as you stood up, walking to his side. He got down to your height. "I have to go, sweetheart." He told you softly. "You have to stay here for a while ok?"
You shook your head, already pouting. "N-no... no... daddy... stay."
"Baby... I can't..." He did his best to hold back from having his voice crack as he patted your head. "We both have to get better... the nice lady doctor will help us... alright."
"But... daddy stay."
"Honey, we won't heal if... if we stay together." He wasn't sure if that's what he was suppose to be saying. He should had thought up better words, but the ones he picked were all thrown to the trash the moment he saw your cute little face. "For us to get better-" he gestured to his broken arm, in order to somewhat help you understand. "- we need to distance ourselves for a while ok? But I'll visit. I promise. I'll come to visit and we'll have lots of fun ok?"
You shook your head, frowning as tears welled up in your eyes. "S-sorry... sorry, daddy." You wiped your face. "I-I hurt daddy... n-now... now I stay... and- and."
"Honey, no. Its not your fault." Aizawa pulled you into a hug as you cried. "Its not your fault, ok? None of this is your fault... we just need to... see each other a little less..." he kissed your forehead as you cried onto his chest. He looked up, stopping his own tears.
You somewhat understood what he meant. You understood that you both needed healing and that you need distance. But you couldn't help but fee like it was your fault. That you caused this.
"M-my fault... I-I hurt... I hurt people... I -I hurt... Daddy."
"No no no." Aizawa looked at you, cupping your little face with his big hands. "You didn't do anything wrong. None of this is your fault..." You looked at him with crimson eyes, stressed and feeling extreme emotions. "You did not hurt anyone and you did not hurt me... it's not you fault. It will never be your fault..." he hugged you tightly as he rested his head on top of yours.
"Its not your fault."
