"Who are you?" Denki asked, tilting his head to the side.

The boy looked up, apparently startled. He fumbled with his words and Denki watched his with amusement in his eyes.

"I-uhh. Sorry, I didn't know... anyone- who are you?" he finished lamely. Denki was suddenly very grateful that the black streak in his hair was hidden because he had it pulled back in a ponytail.

He did a thing he didn't ever think that he would do, he stuck out his hand and said "I'm Daiki, I don't know who you are, so?" the boy grabbed his hand and shook it. "well if were doing first names, im Hitoshi."

Denki took back his hand quickly and offered a quick smile. "I was wondering who took care of the cat when I'm not here." He gestured lamely to the fluffy grey cat curled up on te bed next to the boy- Hitoshi Denki's brain reminded him.

Hitoshi looked at the furball next to him and began to pet down its back slowly. "It's actually my cat, he led me here today." He looked up and said in a monotone voice, and Denki couldn't tell if he was joking or not; "you think he wanted us to meet?"

Denki stood there and smiled awkwardly, "I- uh. If you want to believe that?" he placed his bag on the floor and began to walk over to the bed. "look," he sighed and took another deep breath. "It's getting late and I would like to sleep, so if you don't mind could you go home so I can sleep without a complete stranger watching me? Just a thought." He began getting everything ready for bed, he would out that the water was safe to drink and bathe in, so he walked into the small en suite attached to the bedroom.

Hitoshi's eyes widened, "Wait, you're serious? Why don't you just come home with me? My Dads won't mind." He walked to the to doorway of the en suite.

Denki looked him in the eye and said "I. Don't want. Your pity. So, take your cat. And leave." He took a deep breath and took a step closer to Hitoshi. "Go shove your cat and your healthy family up your fucking asshole." He was well aware of what he was doing but it felt nice to be cruel sometimes, he just needed not to get hooked on it like his Father.

Hitoshi took a deep breath through his nose and said, filling the words with as much venom as he could. "I'm sorry that I wanted to help you, your fucking majesty-" he did a sarcastic bow with a scowl on his face "-next time someone offers you help, you should take it, because if you act like that no one's gonna want to help you." He grabbed his cat and walked out of the little house.

Denki collapsed on the cold tiled floor and began crying he sat there crying for a few minutes before he lifted his head and screamed as loudly as he could "FUCK!" he heard a bang come from the kitchen/living room area of the house.

He took a deep breath and got up again "Who's there?" he called out to what he hoped was no one. "I'm not warning you again. Make yourself known." He walked out of the bedroom, fully prepared to zap who ever it was, when he saw a fluffy grey cay knocking things off the table. He took a deep breath and smiled, he wiped the tears off his face and want to pick up the cat. "I thought Hitoshi took you home with him. You shouldn't have come back; I'm fine I promise." He whispered sweet nothings into the cats' fur while he tried to stop the slow flow of tears rolling down his face.

He turned around with the cat sitting on his shoulder when he saw three figures standing in the doorway. He heaved a sigh and walked over to them. He handed the cat back to Hitoshi and he rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry for getting angry but I'm fine, please leave me alone." He gulped and blinked when he realised who was standing behind him.

He looked up to lock eyes with his homeroom teacher, he moved his gaze to the left and locked eyes with his English teacher, he looked back down at Hitoshi them down at his hands. "oh, fuck." He lifted his hands in the air "Just my fucking luck. Of course, your Dads have to be people that I actually respect, so I have to be nice to them." He walked to the other wall and back. "you know what I take it back, fuck you."

Aizawa sighed, "Denki, language, please."

"JUST GET OUT. IM FINE ON MY OWN." He looked Aizawa in the eye again, "ILL STILL MAKE IT TO CLASS, SO I DON'T SEE THE ISSUE WITH THIS." He walked back into the bedroom and got into the bed.

He heard some parts of the convocation, from what he got, Aizawa sent Present Mic and Hitoshi home saying, "Don't worry ill deal with this." He heard footsteps come into the bedroom and stop a few feet away from the bed.

"Go back home, sensei. Go back to your stupidly perfect husband and beautiful son – like damn that boy is good looking – and you probably have another kid who is just as good looking, but not my type-"

"I hope not, she's six." He interrupted. He sat on the edge of the bed and tried to pry the covers off Denki. "listen kid, this is a very weird night for the both of us. One second my Son is following the family cat into the woods, then three hours later he comes back and tells us that there is a girl who ran away from home hiding out in an old house in said woods. I finally arrive here after and hour long walk and find the girl is actually one of my favourite students." He managed to b=gat the blanket back and look at Denki's tear stained face.

"that's a lie and we both know it." Denki said with a sniffle. "Wait. How long did it take you to walk here?"

Aizawa looked at him funny, "About an hour, why?"

Denki shrugged and wiped his nose, "I just felt like I was only crying for a couple of minutes."

"Oh no, you were at that for a few hours. It was really scary when you screamed though that's why we came in without knocking. Sorry about scaring you." He rubbed soft lines up and down Denki's back. "I would feel a lot better if you did come home with me. If you have nowhere to go, we'll be more than happy to take you in."

Denki shook his head defiantly. "I only have to be here for a week." He snuggled back into the cushion.

"You... do you wanna expand on that?" Aizawa asked tentatively.

Denki sighed and shook his head. "Don't worry about me Sensei, ill be in class every day and I will try my hardest. Oh, and please don't tell Hitoshi about you actually knowing me, id Mic already has them don't worry about it."

He sighed again "alright kid, ill leave you alone. But remember that it is in my job description to worry about you, also if you miss a day of school I will make you move in with me and Mic, got it kid?" he stood up and ruffled Denki's hair.

He nodded. "I got it Sensei."

Anyway, Aizawa left and Denki was pretty sure you can't kidnap your student to protect them from their parents.
