A new land, life and love

Ch 5: The Calm Before the Storm

"He's been adjusting well, hasn't he?" Mic was in their shared bedroom with some papers scattered on their bed. It was 4 o'clock in the morning and Aizawa was lying down next to him. "I think so, but what I'm worried about is that companion of his, Ajaw, he's quite..."

"Violent?" Mic said with a slight shine in his eyes, "Possessive? Touchy?" the hero on the bed sat up with a small huff of laughter, "I was going to say attached but those works too." He grabbed the paper from Mic's hand and rested his head on his shoulder, "These the UA staff papers again?"

The Mhm he received was mumbled as Mic placed a kiss on his head, "I messaged Nezu about Kinich and he agreed to place him into my class. I'm going to be the homeroom teacher for the 1-A class again this year "

This made Yamada perk up even more "That's great! But we still need to verify his quirk. Are we going to book him an appointment or just going to eyeball it?"" His husband thought about this question long and hard for many nights but still didn't really have a concrete answer, "I think we should ask him. It's obvious Kinich isn't used to receiving help from adults and doesn't trust us fully, but we still should help as we can."

His answer was met with a nod as Yamada got out of bed, "Come on, Shouta. We should get ready for the first day of school,"

"Ughhhh, I don't want to..." the black-haired man complained as his husband dragged him out of bed, "Come onnnnn, let's make breakfast for Kinich this time instead of him making it for us." It was one of the many new things they discovered about Kinich. The teen himself was very resourceful and enjoyed cooking in his freetime, so in this new place he had been cooking nonstop, almost always nose-deep in a cookbook

"That's a good idea, but I don't want to get up..," despite his complaints Aizawa rolled out of their bed and stretched his arms. Yamada let out a small sigh but helped Shouta get dressed in his hero gear. After a half hour of complaining and grumbling, both men were fully dressed and were about to leave their room when they heard small shuffling from the opposite side of the door

"Stupid Kinich. Pushing yourself the day before this 'school' starts," Hizashi and Shouta looked at each other and with mutual understanding stood still and listened to Ajaw as his mumblings got fainter. They heard the words 'eggs,' 'rice,' 'vegetables' and many profanities and mispronounced spices along with the clanging of a pan. After a few moments, they could hear the shuffling of footsteps as Ajaw walked back into Kinich's room and they opened their door silently. Moving silently was easy for both of the heroes and they peered into the room.

Ajaw was sitting on the edge of the bed and was holding a plate of fresh fried rice. He was gently shaking Kinich awake with his free hand. Kinich himself was holding the whelps close to his chest with his tail but stirred as Ajaw shook him, "Ajaw?" He sat up and rubbed away the sleep from his eyes, his hair in a mess and the large shirt he was wearing fell off of his shoulders. "Good morning, I made you some breakfast," the dragon placed the food on the sleepy teen's lap and pulled his shirt back over his shoulder, "turn around, I'll do your hair."

Kinich nodded as slowly turned around with his back now facing Ajaw, he started to eat the rice as Ajaw undid his braids and brushed the messy hair. His touch was gentle as if he was touching a treasure but neither of the teens pointed that out. Within a few minutes Ajaw finished his hair and Kinich was done with the food and a knock came through the comfortable silence

"Kinich? It's time for you to get ready, we're gonna head to the entrance exam. You'll be excused from the written exam but you'll have to participate in the practical one" They looked up to see Mic leaning on the doorway with Aizawa standing behind him. Kinich nodded to them as Ajaw turned into his little pixel dragon form

"We'll leave within twenty minutes, alright?" They stepped into the room and sat on the now empty spot on the bed, "We can take the whelps so you can get ready"

"Mhmm," at his response, and both of the adults scooped up the little saurians and walked out of the room. Within ten minutes, Kinich was dressed in a casual black sleeveless top and with some oversized jeans that were held by a small black belt. He was wearing a beanie that had holes for his horns, with his signature jacket wrapped around his waist and a tote bag filled with the rest of his original outfit and snacks for the whelps over his shoulder.

Walking behind him, Ajaw was dressed identically to Kinich and was taking care of the saurians, his tail wagging slightly behind him but no one bothered to point it out.

Mic and Aizawa turned at hearing the teen's footsteps, turned to him and gave him a beaming smile, "Ready?" said the more energetic of the two

"Yes"

"Then let's go to UA highschool!"
