"Ah Aizawa! What are you doing here? Is class over?" Aizawa walked into Recovery Girl's office and slide the door closed behind him.

"Annoying. You ask too many questions." He grimly responded.

"I only asked two..."

"Exactly." He sat down in the chair next to the bed, throwing a folder onto your lap. You glanced at it and picked it up.

"What's this?" You questioned. Aizawa just crossed his arms and leaned back in the chair.

"It's the compiled information from both the military and hero association about your quirk." Your mouth fell open slightly before you began flipping through it. There were pages upon pages of information, things you had never even thought of.

"Holy shit..." You whispered.

"Watch your mouth in front of your teacher." Aizawa said sternly.

"Ah I'm sorry. This is just crazy." You rubbed the back of your neck as you began reading through the files. Aizawa watched your intensity before smiling softly.

"The reason why I stopped your fight today is in there also." You glanced back up at his comment. "Remember when your nose started bleeding?" You were taken aback to your fight with Shouto for a moment.

"Ah, I remember. When I was trying to remove his ice towards the end..."

"When you overuse your quirk, your blood pressure rises temporarily. It was your first real-time fighting with your quirk nonetheless, so you don't understand your limits. It was only a nosebleed this time, but I have a theory that in extreme cases it could cause hemorrhages in various parts of your body." You nodded, taking in all he had to say before glancing down.

"I understand..." A sinking feeling enveloped you. 

There's always some drawback, I should have known it wasn't gonna be that easy.

Your thoughts were interrupted by a gentle patting on your head. Aizawa had reached out to comfort you. He could tell you were feeling distressed.

"Don't worry about it too much, just be a kid for now. You have time to learn to go at your own pace." His words were sincere and kind, the warmth causing that familiar knot to build in your throat. Tears cascaded down your cheeks, dripping onto your hands. 

He just... reminds me of what a father should be. 

Aizawa only looked at you, not saying a word. He didn't need to ask, he already understood.

"Sorry... Aizawa..." You rubbed your eyes, trying to dissipate the tears. He smiled gently before standing and gesturing to the folder.

"Keep that and read it. In the back I also left a hero costume form for you to fill out."

"Eh? I thought I wasn't allowed to have a hero costume."

"I may have pulled a few strings." He replied with a grin.

"But what if you get in trou-"

"Shut up. I'm your teacher, I can do what I want."

-Walking Home-

"What the fuck is that?" Katsuki didn't even wait for you to answer, he just swiped the folder from your hand.

"HEY." You attempted to retrieve it, jumping up and swatting at his wrist. "DON'T ASK A QUESTION IF YOU'RE NOT EVEN GONNA WAIT FOR ME TO ANSWER YOU HEDGEHOG." Katsuki ignored you, grabbing your forehead with one hand to keep you at bay and holding the folder open with the other. Your body was still weak from recovering, so you were unable to retaliate. "KATSUKI COME ON THAT'S... PERSONAL." You were trying your best to keep your voice raised through your excessive panting.

"Pipe down. Your business is my business." He nonchalantly said still holding your forehead. You gave up and watched as he began running his eyes over the vast amounts of information on you. 

I wonder what he's reading about... 

"Ahh I see." He whispered, placing his hand on his chin. "So that's what your bust size is..."

You tore the folder from his hand instantly. 

"AT LEAST READ SOMETHING IMPORTANT YOU DAMN PERVERT."

You both continued down the sidewalk towards your neighborhood.

"By the way, I'm coming over tonight." Katsuki boldly stated. You gave him an annoyed look before sighing.

"I have work tonight so no."

"Call in sick."

"No." Katsuki clicked his tongue at your stubbornness.

"YOU'RE STILL RECOVERING YOU IDIOT! YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WORK!"

"Piss off, I can make my own decisions." Katsuki was fuming at this point.

"THEN I'LL FUCKING FILL IN FOR YOU AGAIN!"

"Katsuki relax, I'll be just fine. Plus you don't owe me anything this time so there's no reason for you to fill in for me." You huffed. Katsuki stopped walking. His gaze was cast down and his fists clenched. You paused as well and looked back at him. "Katsuki?"

"I don't know a damn thing about being in a relationship... But you're supposed to help each other right? I'm not a fucking fool, I know that much. So stop trying to handle everything yourself. We're a team now. And if I ever need your help, you damn well better be there to save my ass." Your jaw just dropped as you stood in silence. "YOU GONNA JUST STAND THERE WITH THAT DUMB FUCKING FACE?"

You burst out laughing. "Sorry sorry... It's just sometimes I guess I forget that you're more than just a sweaty-palmed jackass." Katsuki took no time stomping over and gripping the collar of your uniform, pulling your face up to his.

"I DARE YOU TO SAY THAT TO MY FUCKING FACE!" You only smirked before straining your neck, planting a gentle kiss on the tip of his nose. He instantly dropped you, his face becoming flushed. You took his hand in yours and smiled up at him.

"Don't worry, I like it all. Even the sweaty part." Katsuki was trying to get upset but he just couldn't after you gave him that beaming smile. He only rolled his eyes and began dragging you down the road.

"Whatever..." He scoffed. 

He's pouting, how cute. 

You squeezed his hand.

"Honestly my boss told me if you filled in for me again, I'd be fired."

"Eh? What the fuck, why?"

"He told me you threatened to kill him every ten minutes."

"He was trying to tell me what to do."

"HE'S THE BOSS. THAT'S THE POINT FLAMES FOR BRAINS."
