Burning~

Chapter 10~

The weekend had ended in a flash. You had spent the last two days rotting in your bed, in efforts to regain your energy.

Least to say, it was a pain to get up. Though one thing still raced through your mind.

~~

There were about ten minutes before the school bell started ringing, and currently a certain grumpy man found himself inside your infirmary. 

"You can seat here Aizawa." You told the man while guiding him to a bed.

He nodded walking over with his hands in his pockets before plopping in the bed. 

You wheeled your office chair over to his bed. Starting to reach out your hands towards his face.

"I'll start now, try not to get too impressed." you warned cockily.

"I already know what you're capable of doing."

"Wow looks like I got myself a stalker." You joked.

"Tcht." was the only thing he answered before turning his eyes away from your stare.

First you began delicately removing the bandages, making sure not to harm the already sensitive skin. After they were fully removed, you reached both you hands and cupped his face.

This is way more awkward then it should be.

You began letting your power flow, sinking your fingertips further into his pale face.

"It feels warm." Aizawa muttered. 

You laughed. 

"I'm glad, depending on the injury it could either feel like a soft warm blanket, or a fiery pit of flames."

You dropped both hands to your side. "Well I'm done, here take a look." You handed him the mirror that laid on the bed.

As he took in his appearance so did you, admiring his face, the face that had been covered in those bandages for so long, the face that now held a new scar, his own badge of honor. 

He lowered his hand that held the mirror. 

"What do you mean the feeling depends on the injury?" he asked, his elbows at his legs as he looked at you with that lazy glare.

"Simple, if its a small scratch you barely feel anything, however, let's say your leg gets cut off, it's gonna hurt like crazy."

"Are you talking from experience?" he gave a slight smirk.

"Oh no no, I've got a super low pain tolerance, I've never experimented it myself, that's just what some of my patients have told me." you answered. "Anyway enough about me, is your Erasure, okay? How are you feeling?"

He began standing up  moving his head my way as his eyes changed into a deep crimson color. "My eyes are a little dry, but everything else is fine." he turned around.

You were left stunned, you'd never seen him use his power. As he reached out for the doorknob, you snapped out and asked the question that pooled your mind.

"Hey Aizawa, did you... did you carry me the other day to my house?"

He halted not bothering to face you. "You fell asleep and wouldn't wake up, so I had no other choice but to carry you to your apartment, don't worry I left right after."

After finally hearing a confession, you looked at the floor in efforts too hide your rosy cheeks. 

At last he opened the door "Oh by the way, I heard mouth tape helps with snoring." then he left.

After letting sink in what he said, you sprung from you chair, before poking your head through the crack in the door.

"YOU'RE SUCH A JERK." You whisper-shouted, before shutting the door close with aggressive- gentleness. 

~~~

Ever since Eraser's recovery he has been joining you all at the lunch table, not really making an effort to talk but at least showing up.

It was finals week, and after today's combat test, both students and teachers alike, would get a much needed break.

"Don't go easy on those kids!" You said trying to motivate the three teachers standing before you.

"Oh, trust me I won't" Midnight purred, licking her top lip.

To which Aizawa just gave a glare.

"Nah, I'll go easy on the poor kiddos wouldn't wanna hurt them too bad, ya know?" Mic chimed in.

~~

You were so going to laugh at his face. The man laid unconscious on the dirt, foaming at the mouth being surrounded by insects, while the students hurried past the exit. You laughed out loud catching the eyes of several students that were in the room.

"He seriously let himself be defeated by a couple of bugs." You began standing up hurrying to your station as you noticed how the robots started picking the man up.

~~

Eraser was up.

The cameras picked up every movement that he made. When he ran through the power cables, and even when he hanged from them while catching the students with his scarf.

He looks so cool, dammit. Your eyes were for sure gleaming. 

His actions so confident and precise, yet you got the feeling that he was holding back.

It was your first time seeing him in action, seeing him with those yellow goggles that covered his beautiful scarlet eyes.

Then suddenly a humongous wall of ice was built in front of him. Surely a diversion created by the students.

Said students popped up moments later from the ice with hoods covering them.

"Quite clever." You murmured.

To Aizawa's view, it might seem like the students were trying to run away. However, the different camera angles were able to show the hidden truth, the trap they had crafted for Eraser.

As the man lunged towards the students, the hoods came of within a second and a catapult was displayed holding a scarf of sorts, very similar to Aizawa's. Just as the girl was about to pull the lever, she missed, Aizawa noticed, however, instead of retaliating, he simply jumped back, the girl regaining her footing pulled the lever and trapped Aizawa, successfully passing the practical exam.

~~

You weren't shocked at the way Midnight fought, not in the slightest.

Her pheromone like gas that seemed to lull people to sleep, trapped one of the students. With the other one she fought admirably, even if her methods were... strange, she proofed why she deserved being called a Pro Hero.

~~

After making fun of Yamada with Kayama, you decided to head home, walking to the familiar car in the parking lot, Aizawa's car. 

You waited for a few minutes. Leaning against the car with your eyes closed as you relaxed to the summer breeze. Your hair flew about in the air, The sunset hues surely lighting your face. 

You slightly opened one eye, as you sensed footsteps come to a halt a few feet before you.

We stared at each other for a second not saying a word.

"Let's get going." Aizawa announced abruptly

-

The ride was silent, a comforting silence. 

"You know Aizawa, you always act so tough with your students.. but deep down, you're a big softie, aren't you." you teased. "I saw how you gave that student a second chance after she missed the lever."

He sighed." I had to let ways for them to win."

"That's such a Yamada thing to say." You mocked

A/N: Mic is so real for that, I'd actually die if bugs started crawling on me like that.
