Are You Crying, Too?

Sleep

One-shot: Present Mic x Easer Head

}××××××××××××{

"Hey, Eraser Head!" The loud voice of Present Mic echoed throughout the halls of U.A.  Aizawa groaned as he covered his ears.  He was in the teachers lounge, doing what he did best.  Sleeping.  Or at least he was, anyway.

"What is it now?" Aizawa tiredly asked himself.  Lately, Present Mic had been bothering him non-stop, causing him to get even less sleep then usual.

Present Mic entered the lounge, a bright smile on his face like always.  His sun glasses glinted in the light cast by the lights on the ceiling. 

Aizawa groaned once more; he knew that Present Mic wouldn't leave him alone for the next few hours.  Even so, he tried snuggle back into his yellow sleeping bag for a few precious seconds of sleep.

"Get up, sleepyhead!" Present Mic shouted.  Aizawa gritted his teeth together as he tried to ignore the obnoxious blond.

Present Mic wasn't going to let Aizawa sleep, even if that was what he desperately wanted.  He had something to tell him.

The blond strutted over to the raven and kneeled down.  He then proceeded to unzip the sleeping bag, which could easily be used as a body bag.  No one would suspect anything if someone were to carry Aizawa around in the yellow thing.  They would just think he was sleeping per usual.

The gruffy face of Aizawa greeted Present Mic, who's smile grew just that much bigger when he saw those tired eyes.

Aizawa stared into his co-workers eyes before shutting his own, a single thought entering his head.

'Todays going to be a long day.'

Present Mic slid his hands under Aizawa's armpits and lifted him up so that he was standing on his own feet.

"Are you ready!?" He shouted yet again.  Aizawa tilted his head back and raised his arm as he let little droplets fall into his eyes from his eye drops.  His head fell back into it's normal position while he put the eye drops away.

"Where are we going to this time?" Aizawa gruffly asked.  The two men walked out of the lounge and through the halls of U.A.  The sky was a light shade of blue, an obvious sign that meant that the day was almost over.  Aizawa was sleeping for longer than he had originally thought.

"We're going to my place!" Present Mic said as he showed his friend a thumbs up.  Aizawa ran his hand through his hair; the energetic male beside him had made his energy deflate considerably over the past few days.

The raven stayed quiet as he dreaded what was to come in the next few hours.  Just what was Present Mic planning..?

}×××××××××××××××××{

"We're here!" Present Mic opened the door to his lavish house.  Aizawa didn't bother to look at the decor.  Instead, he opted to walk right in and sit on the closest couch.

"Why are we here?" The sleepy make wondered.  He didn't expect an answer, however.  Present Mic hardly ever gave him one.

"Meow..." The soft meow was uttered from a calico cat, who had speedily jumped on Aizawa's lap.  Aizawa began to pet the beautiful creature as it waltzed around his legs.

"Since when did you have a cat?" Aizawa asked, his voice finally showing a small hint of interest.

Present Mic walked in and sat next to his co-worker.  He heaved a hardly noticble sigh.

"I..." Aizawa looked at the blond as he spoke with a small bit of worry hidden in his eyes.  That emotion became more evident when Present Mic took off his glasses, only to reveal tired eyes that had been turned red from irritation.  Was...  Present Mic...  Crying earlier?

Present Mic stared in front of him.  A heavy silence filled the air.

"Present Mic?" Aizawa asked.  Present Mic leaned back and fully relaxed.

"I guess nows the best time to do it, huh?" The male lightly shook his head, as if he was trying to get a grip on reality.

"What is it?" Aizawa slowly stopped petting the cat that now rested in his lap.  He gave his friend his full attention.

"First...  Call me Hizashi.  And second..." Present Mic inhaled deeply before he turned to face Aizawa, "I like you.  A lot."

Aizawa stared at Present Mic's serious face in bewilderment.  What did he mean?

"To be more specific...  I love you, Aizawa," Present Mic stated.

"You...  What..?" Aizawa said, still not quite over the shock of such information.  How long had Present Mic had these feeling for?  Is that why he always bothered Aizawa?

"You can leave of you want...  You're not obligated to stay here," Present Mic's voice sounded dejected.  He turned to stare in front of him once again.

"Mic...  No..." Aizawa didn't know what to say.  He's never been in this type of situation before.

"Just go...  You don't have to accept," Present Mic whispered.

Aizawa took a deep breath before responding, "I don't...  Know how this thing works.  But I'll try it..."

Present Mic glanced at Aizawa.  He couldn't believe what he had just said.  He never thought that he'd ever get the chance to be with the one he loved.

"Really..?" Present Mic questioned.  Aizawa nodded as he picked up the cat and placed it on the floor.  He then leaned over to Present Mic and gave him a quick kiss.  The raven moved back to give his co-worker some space. 

A small blush resided on both of their faces, as well as a small smile.  Aizawa leaned in for another kiss.

"Can we...  Keep this a secret for now?" Present Mic asked.  His new lover nodded. 

Aizawa awkwardly laid his head down on Present Mic's lap, with his arms proping up his head more.  The energetic male looked at his lover in shock.

"I'm going to sleep," Aizawa informed.  Present Mic nodded with a small grin before he turned on the TV to watch some show about death gods and some teen obsessively writing names in a notebook.

Both Aizawa and Present Mic fell asleep soon after, cuddled up in each other's arms.
