Killua x Mha

________________________________________________________________________________

     I continue staring at Aizawa and Mic-Sensei, wondering if they're friends or something more. Looking in Mic's eyes, I can see a level of care you wouldn't have for someone who's just a coworker. Mic's eyes get shiny with unreleased tears as he looks at Aizawa's form, covered in bandages from head to toe, small clear tubes running into his body, the heart monitor beeping steadily. 

   I stay silent, letting Mic have his silent moment with Aizawa-sensei, he cradles his uncovered hand in both of his, holding it up to his face as he stares at Aizawa. I feel like I'm intruding on something intimate so I quickly take a step outside and try to find a vending machine to get them some drinks and maybe a small snack. 

  I quickly find a vending machine, putting in a few dollars into each vending machine, buying a few snacks and drinks. I wasn't sure what Mic and Aizawa ate so I just grabbed a couple jelly packs and bags of salted peanuts. I got a couple lemonades for all of us, cause pretty much everyone likes lemonade. 

   I make my way back to the room, seeing Mic laying on Aizawas bed with his eyes closed, I dont think he's asleep though, just laying there. I close the door behind me softly. "Mic sensei?" He sits up from his resting place on Aizawas bed, his glasses skewed and his hair a bit messy, he blinks and adjusts to the light. "Oh, Killua" He smiles soft at me, "I was wondering where you went." I smile back at him and hold up the snacks and the drinks at him. 

  He sees that I have quite a few and quickly stands to help me, grabbing a few of them into his own hands. "Thank you, Killua, you didn't have to do that" He smiles gratefully at me. Not used to this kind of stuff, I look away with a small huff, an embarrassed blush, "Well, I was hungry, and I just happened to have enough money for you two, that's all." He smiles at me, "Either way, thank you." 

  I rub the back of my head before grabbing a bag of salted peanuts and opening the bag with a small POP.  I quickly eat half of the bag, not realizing how hungry I was until I started eating, from the corner of my eye, I see Mic-sensei put down the other food and grab a jelly pack from the pile. He opens it and begins to eat, holding Aizawa's hand in his free one, running his thumb on the back of it gently. 

   I raise my eyebrow a bit at the action but don't say anything otherwise. Don't really have time to say anything otherwise, as Aizawa's eyes begin to flutter open. Mic quickly puts the jelly ack he was eating down and leans further over Aizawa, moving his face into Aizawa's vision, his hand still holding his. 

   "Hey." I hear him talk to Aizawa softly, "How are you feeling?" 

   I can hear Aizawa sigh a bit as he looks up at Mic-sensei. "Like I'm covered in bandages and haven't eaten in weeks. I hear Mic let out an exasperated chuckle. "You know what I mean, Shouta. You weren't supposed to wake up for another couple of days but you're awake already... are you feeling alright?" 

   Aizawa tries to sit up with a groan before laying back down in defeat. "I feel better than I did, but it still hurts like hell." I hear Aizawa stop talking for a second before he asks Mic-sensei, "Who else it here?" Mic-sensei looks over at me fleetingly before turning back to Aizawa. "Killua woke up a few hours before you did, he came to make sure you were alright." Mic-sensei's eyes widen slightly as he seems to remember something. "Oh, and I'm not sure if you're feeling up to eating yet, but he bought some jelly packs from the vending machine." Mic-sensei reaches behind him, still holding one of Aizawa's hands, and grabs a jelly pack, bringing it back infront of Aizawa's face. 

   Aizawa grunts as he reaches his hand up to grab it. Mic-sensei opens it quickly before putting it in Aizawa's hand. Aizawa grunts again in thanks before bringing the jelly pack up to his lips and beginning to eat. Mic-sensei watches him intently, trying to make sure he's okay while he eats. 

   I move slightly closer to the bed, also trying to keep an eye on Aizawa's health as he eats. He seems to grunt in pain every few bites, which is concerning, but I figure it's more because of him having to squeeze the jelly pack with his messed up hand while Mic holds the other. His eyes turn to me as he finishes the jelly pack. 

   "How are you doing kid?" 

   My eyes start watering a bit as I get reassured that Aizawa is really okay. "I should really be asking you that". 

   "Well, I think it's reasonable for us both to ask each other that." I smile and nod at him, remembering the fight, and how scared I was watching Aizawa get flung around. 

  "Yeah, I guess thats fair." I respond with a slight smile, finally sitting down in the chair on the other side of Aizawa's bed. "Gave me a scare back there, Moth-sensei, thought you were a goner" 

   He grunts a bit, still in pain, before responding, "Well, I guess the feeling is mutual, jumping in like that was stupid Killua, you may be a strong, but you're still a student, my student, if you had gotten killed protecting me I'd have brought you back to kill you myself." 

  I nod, not wanting to argue with him right now, still just glad that he's alive. "Sorry, moth-sensei." 

He huffs at that, "You did good, kid, just don't do it again." 

I nod at him again, "Yes moth-sensei." 

Mic-sensei smiles at the exchange, now eating his unfinished jelly pack as he, too, is reassured that Aizawa will be fine. "I wanted to tell you that there were no other casualties or serious injuries. A couple scrapes and bruises here and there but nothing too serious, you protected them well, Shouta." 

Aizawa smiles at him giving a small, "Thank you, Im glad" before promptly falling back asleep, probably tired from eating and being in pain. 

I look at Mic-Sensei, seeing him gesture towards the door, most likely wanting to talk outside, as not to wake up Aizawa. I nod at him and follow him out the door.

Once we get outside, Mic shuts the door softly behind him and smiles softly at me. "As Aizawa said, you are a kid and you shouldn't make this a habit." 

I rub my head in embarrassment, chuckling nervously, before feeling myself be pulled into a hug. 

"But thank you," I feel a small amount of tears start to wet my shoulder through the hospital gown. 

"I don't think Aizawa would have survived if things kept going on without any interference, so thank you." 

I freeze up for a moment before returning the hug, it was a bit awkward because Mic sensei was pretty tall and I was pretty, well, the opposite of that. "It was no problem, he would've done the same." 

Mic chuckles into my shoulder before moving back from the hug, "maybe, but that's his job, you're his student, you shouldn't be making a habit of doing that, even if he'd do the same for you." 

  I nod at him, "Yeah, yeah, I get it." I rub the back of my head. 

 He smiles at me again before putting his hand on my head gently, careful to avoid any injuries. "You should get to bed, Killua, you should get some rest so you can heal your injuries faster."

I sigh but nod, knowing he's right, I give him a quick goodbye before making my way back to my own room and laying down in my own bed, falling asleep quickly.
