Work Text:
Aizawa yawned as he rubbed at his left eye with the back of his hand, pressing the start button from the coffee maker, he was so tired, he wanted to go back to bed, it was like 5am, on a Sunday for God's sake, couldn't his insomnia leave him be even if just once?
He felt arms wrap around his waist, a weight resting on his shoulder.
-Hizashi we aren't in our department.- He sighs as he feels his husband's lips press a soft kiss against his shoulder.
-Who cares? It's Sunday, what child in their right mind would wake up at 5am?- Asks the voice hero, voice subdued as he rested his cheek on the erasure hero's shoulder, arms tightening the hug as he gave a long content sigh.
Aizawa didn't say anything, Mic kind of had a point, so he just allowed him to lean against his back, resting his hands over the blonde's cold hands, just enjoying the silence and the hug while he waited for the coffee to be ready.
-You should had stayed in bed with me.- Says Mic softly, hands sneaking underneath the other man's shirt in order to hug him better, maybe it was due being half asleep or something but Shouta always felt so soft in the mornings, so easy to hug, so comfortable, warm, nice...
-What was I suppose to do there if I can't sleep?- Asks the erasure hero, fingers gripping at Mic's hands for a moment until his skin got used to the somewhat cold skin of his husband's hands.
-Cuddle with me of course.- States the blonde, even if Aizawa can't see him he can hear the smirk in Hizashi's voice.- It's a cold morning Sho, we should be cuddling and snuggling and kissing.
-You are so disgustingly cheesy.
-But you love it don't you?- Asks Mic as Aizawa turns to face him, wrapping his arms around the blonde's neck.
-Maybe, but I'm not going back to bed, I got my coffee now.- States the erasure hero giving him a peck before turning back to his coffee, he felt Mic press his lip against his shoulder, pouting and huffing, yet he ignored him in order to serve some coffee for himself into his mug, as black as his soul.
-I'm never going to understand how can you drink plain black coffee without dying in the process.- Says Mic as he releases his husband with not that much joy.
-The coffee goes inside, no longer do I own life inside me.- States Aizawa matter of fact as he walks past Mic, towards the living room, taking the couch hostage as he sits down.
-I'm married to a zombie, that explains so much.- Whispers Mic faking a mystified vibe as he sat by Aizawa's side, the dim light of the room thanks to a lamp in a corner making the cool in the air feel more somehow, Aizawa rolled his eyes at that as he took a sip of his coffee, the warm liquid doing wonders to his chilly self.
-And I'm married to a dumbass but you don't see me pointing it out.- He chooses to answer Mic with a side grin, Mic gasps dramatically at that, touching his chest.
-Sho that hurts you know?
-Tell someone who cares.- Deadpans Aizawa as he takes another sip of the heavenly beverage, Mic lays his head on his lap, looking up at him with puppy eyes before opening his mouth.
-Shouta that hurts.- Aizawa snorted at that, making Mic snicker.
As Aizawa drank his coffee Mic left for a moment, coming back with a blanket around his shoulders, sitting back on the couch, Aizawa blinked at him as Mic took the empty mug off his hands, placing it on the coffee table before getting his legs on the couch, leaning his back against the armchair.
-Come here snuggle with me.- Asks Mic as he pats at the free space between his legs, Aizawa stares at him, he was cold, and so tired despite all, and Mic looked so warm, so comfortable.
He knew he was playing with fire here, but he felt too tired to care.
Plus, it wasn't like he couldn't wake up at 7 right? The kids on Sunday, the early risers at least, they woke up at 8, he could sleep here right?
-Come on you know you want to.- Coaxes Mic playfully, Aizawa ends up yielding as he crawls to sit between Mic's legs, curling as the voice hero shifts the blanket around them, enclosing them in warmth, Aizawa resting his cheek against the blonde's chest, sighing contently.- See? It's not that bad.
-I'm not snuggling with you, you just happen to be in the way of my safe place, now shut up and hug me.- Mumbles the erasure hero, snuggling closer to Mic, wrapping his arms around the blonde's waist, the voice hero chuckles at that, hugging Aizawa closer to him, shifting a bit to rest his head against the couch, kissing the top of his husband's head, he knew this was gonna bring them a lot of troubles.
But he found he didn't really care.
It wasn't like they had to worry for the students.
Hizashi had a feeling they wouldn't really mind.
He smiled as he felt Shouta's body relax against him, breathing shallow, relaxed, leave it to Aizawa to fall asleep even after drinking a whole ass mug of black coffee.
He shifted a bit again to get comfortable, making sure the blanket was covering Shouta correctly before allowing himself to close his eyes, so warm... so nice.
It didn't took long for Mic's will to be taken away by the Lord of sleep.
~
The first one to wake up was none other than Iida, the boy who almost had a heart attack when he saw someone at the couch, though after some closer inspection he was able to relax, it was just Mic and Aizawa cuddling, nothing to worry about.
Hold it.
His head snapped back to look at both heroes, blinking, one, two times.
No, he wasn't half asleep.
Mic and Aizawa were cuddling, the way they were cuddling wasn't accidental at all either, were they...-?
No.
This wasn't his business, he shouldn't concern himself with what his teachers did, they weren't doing anything inappropriate, there was no reason for him to meddle into this.
And no, he did not took a picture.
He just got into the kitchen as silent as possible and started making himself breakfast.
Not even three minutes after Iida got into the kitchen Bakugou made his appearance into the common room, frowning as he caught sight of the couch, frowning even more at the sight he got as he got closer, he rubbed at his eyes, frowning even more.
What the actual fuck?
Were these two seriously...
Well, he won't lie, that kind of soothed some of his worries about himself.
And no, fuck whoever said he smiled at those two bastards.
Little by little the whole dorms acquired life, kids waking up from their slumber, the cold morning and gray clouds hiding the sun outside drowning the place into a somewhat relaxing atmosphere, a few wearing hoodies, mittens and/ or socks.
Plus, no one really wanted to make noise so as to not wake the couple on the couch.
It was a strange yet cute sight.
No one really having seen Mic before looking so quiet and still, hair down, no sunglasses, no headphones, no voice device around his neck.
He looked like someone completely different.
The only reason they were able to recognize him was because his face was obviously still the same even out of hero costume.
-They are so cute, and Mic looks so pretty with his hair down.- Says Ashido matter of fact, because Mic's hair was longer than she ever thought it to be, looked so soft, silky, bright, almost golden like, like golden threads of silk! She wondered if he would allow her to braid it.
-Do you think they are dating?- Asks Kaminari as he climbs on the couch besides Shinso, drapping his legs over the purple haired boy's lap, getting a look of annoyance in return that he paid no mind to.
-Would you cuddle with your friend?- Asks Ojiro raising an eyebrow at the electric boy.
-I don't see why not, that's manly, bros being there for bros.- States Kirishima firmly.
-Dating or not I have never seen Aizawa look so peaceful even while sleeping.- Says Sero, the tape boy did held truth there though, Aizawa looked more peaceful than they had ever seen the man, even if they could only see the upper half of his face he still looked at peace with the world itself.
-Present Mic is bisexual right? And Aizawa refused Ms.Joke's marriage proposal, maybe they are dating, I mean, he and Mic are always together, at the sport festival Mic asked Aizawa to go grab some food with him and he also was really pissed at the USJ attack when he saw Aizawa.- Says Jirou thoughtfully.
Mic had always been one of her favorites heroes since she was little, both for their quirk similarities and his love for music, her parents always allowed her to wake up at 4am to listen to his radio show, he had come out to the public as bisexual like eight years ago, of course not everyone had liked that, but he never allowed that to bring him down, that's maybe one of the other reasons for her to like him, it comforted her to know there was an LGBTQ+ hero out there.
Aizawa for the other side, they barely knew anything about the man despite the two years of knowing him, he was pretty reserved, though living with him under the same roof for a year by now had allowed them to get to know the man better, they knew how to read his body language, they knew he didn't like AllMight for whatever reason that was, that he was close to Midnight and Mic, that he liked cats and that even though he didn't like sweet stuff he liked Satou's cakes.
Yet aside from that they didn't exactly knew anything else about him.
-I would be pissed too if I saw one of my friends looking like death is trying to claim their soul.- Says Tokoyami darkly, one thing he hated the most was to see his friends get hurt.
-Can you just shut the fuck up and leave them be? Who the fuck cares if they are dating or not?- Snaps Bakugou briskly, voice low as he looks up from where he was doing homework.
-Aren't you curious?- Asks Ashido teasingly, Bakugou snorted.
-Why would I be curious to know who is Aizawa or Mic banging?- Asks the ashy blonde, grinning as he saw Ashido's face sour up at that.
-Now that takes the cuteness away.- Says the pink girl, cringing in distaste at the sudden mental picture, ew, she didn't need to be scarred for life!
After that the room drowns into silence again, the kids just laying around either on the free couch or the floor, the cold gloomy weather making a few start to doze off.
It wasn't until 11am that one of the heroes woke up.
Mic.
The man in question shifting for a moment before opening his eyes, it took him a moment to realize the whole room was far from being empty.
Hagakure being the one to catch sight of the awake voice hero.
-You are awake good morning!- Chirped the invisible girl in a moderated voice so as to not wake Aizawa, all eyes fell on the voice hero.
-Your eyes are so pretty!- Came Uraraka's voice, though pretty wasn't exactly enough to describe Mic's eyes, they were a strange shade of green, like apple green but not quite, they held three rings kind of thing, like a soundwave? But not? Cat like was more like it... kind of... it was weird, he had weird yet gorgeous eyes.
-Thanks..?
-Sensei, are you and Aizawa dating?- Asks Ashido bluntly, Mic glances at her as he rests his cheek on the erasure hero's head.
-I wouldn't call it dating but yeah, we are together, why? Does it bother you?- Asks the voice hero, his voice is strangely soft, even his eyes, like he is way too comfortable to feel any kind of disturbance against anything at all.
-No, in fact, I think you two look cute together.- Says Ashido matter of fact, Mic smirks at that.
-I know right?
-Pardon my question but if you aren't dating then what are you?- Asks Yaoyorozu with a confused frown, the voice hero looks at her for a moment before grinning.
-We are married, have been for the past eight years.- Dictates Mic proudly, that gets him a few shocked gasps and excited looks, kids vibrating in their seats, the only thing keeping them from screaming being Aizawa's sleeping form.
-For real?
-Well I proposed and he said yes so I hope it's for real kid.- Said Mic in amusement at Kaminari's question.
-Eight years? Was that why you came out?- Asks Midoriya tilting his head to the side curiously.
-Kind of, I mean, heroes often choose to not come out due the kind of fame that that will give them, the humiliation and rejection it will bring, but after some alone time with my thoughts I though it was time someone kicked society's comfort zone down, I mean, we are in the 21st century for God's sake, people should stop acting like the world spins around the hetero cis humans.
-Aren't we all humans?- Frowns Todoroki.
-That's the point kid, I just kicked the door down for your generation, even though being bisexual is not that scandalous I hope it can at least be a good motivator for none of you to hide, and if you do well that's okay too, you don't have to share who you are with anyone if you don't want to though if you ask me everyone should have the freedom to express themselves and feel safe while doing so.- Says Mic matter of fact as he shifts a bit, brushing a few strands of hair off Aizawa's face, tucking them behind his ear.
-Does someone knows about your relationship?- Asks Bakugou, voice strangely subdued, Mic smiles at that as he looks up at the boy.
-Midnight knows, FatGum also knows, Kaniko from the police department, Tsukauchi, the cat officer, the staff, Nedzu, Recovery Girl, my parents, Tensei, The Wild Wild Pussycats, Ms.Joke, three vigilantes from Naruhata, Hawks and I'm pretty sure Ryuukyuu kind of knows too?
-I get a few there but how come FatGum, Iida's brother, Ms.Joke, three vigilantes, Hawks, and Ryuukyuu know?- Frowns Satou, a turmoil of questions swirling inside his brain.
-FatGum and Shouta worked together in the past along with Kaniko for an undercover mission, they are good friends
-So manly!- Cried Kirishima, the idea of two of his favorite heroes knowing each other, having worked together, it was so cool!
-Tensei went to U.A. with us so we kind of became friends?
-My brother never mentioned it.- Frowns Iida, Mic grins at that.
-Tensei likes to keep his friends to himself.- Oh if only Iida knew his brother was friends with a vigilante, the boy would definitely flip out.- Ms.Joke you ask because of her marriage proposals right?
At the kids nod he proceeds.
-She does it for an inner joke they both share about the gay boyfriend with the gay girlfriend.
-Ms.Joke's a lesbian?- Asks Jirou wide eyed, a warm feeling swirling inside her chest at the knowledge that she wasn't alone in this.
-Flaring up the sky lesbian.- Assures Mic in amusement.- She wanted to come out but ended up brushing it off because people wouldn't really take her seriously, with that that she is always joking around, plus, she said she wouldn't be able to ask Shouta out if she blew her cover, talk about commitment.
The Class isn't sure how to take that, for one side it was amusing her commitment with Aizawa and for the other side it was sad how no one would ever take her seriously for her playful personality.
-What about the vigilantes? Hawks? Ryuukyuu?
-The vigilantes at Naruhata, well, one of them teamed up with Shouta a few times so he kind of followed him around sometimes despite his fear for him, always trying to muster the courage to become friends with Shouta, it was funny, he put two and two together quite quickly, loose mouth told his girlfriend and his "teacher".- Deadpans the voice hero.
-Aizawa Sensei teamed up with a vigilante?- Asked Iida scandalized.
-Yeah, I mean, sometimes it happens, heroes end up teaming up with vigilantes, it's not that rare, after all at the end of the day vigilantes and heroes share the same desire to protect civilians, plus, the kid became a vigilante in the first place because he was late to the entrance exam due having to save a boy at the river, his quirk is amazing, he has teamed up with lots of heroes, some may say he's a favourite amongst the hero community.- Grins Mic in amusement.
Because Koichi really was a unique being.
-If he is a favorite then why don't you make him a hero?- Asks Midoriya frowning.
-Tensei actually wanted him to join his agency seeing that he had a speed quirk, but took the offer back, he's... he belongs to a different world than ours and at the same time no, even if not official a lot of heroes recognize him as not a vigilante but a hero.
-He sounds so cool.- Says Midoriya with stars in his eyes, making Mic chuckle.
-Hawks?- Asks Tokoyami.
-Hawks, well, believe it or not he takes joy on getting on Shouta's nerves, he's got the tendency to sneak into our apartment to either pet our cat, steal food or just crash on the couch, watching them argue is like watching a dad scolding their son.- Snickers the voice hero.
-You have a cat?
-Technically it's Midnight's but seeing that we are like neighbors she let's us have it, her name's Sushi.
-That's so cute!
-The number 2 hero is a home wrecker.- Whispers Midoriya as he writes something down on his notebook, Mic kind of fears what it may be.
-What about Ryuukyuu?
-... I think she saw us kissing once? But she didn't say anything so I'm not sure...? But she also gets this stupidly soft look when she sees Aizawa and I together, like she is watching some kind of romantic super cute scene shit?
-She totally knows.
-Support from the shadows.
-I guess...
-What about his parents...?- Dares to ask Todoroki.
-That's... If they didn't react well to him coming out I don't think knowing he married a guy is gonna be that much of a nice thing to see.- Says the voice hero, arms tightening the hug around Aizawa, even to this day it haunts him how Shouta came to school all bruised, to hear him cry and ask Mic if he was broken.
It had hurt like hell itself.
The Class for their side felt their guts twist with anxiety at those words, dread of what could those words mean.
-How many LGBTQ+ heroes are there that you know of? You don't have to tell us their names, just... Can we know?- Asks Aoyama after a moment, the boy looking unusually nervous, Mic smiles softly at that.
-Sure, well, we got eleven counting Ms.Joke, thirteen if you add me and Shouta, there's aces, gays, lesbians, bisexuals, aromantics, transgenders and non-binary, I can tell you a few that don't really mind people knowing as long as the media don't get hold of it, Thirteen's ace, aro and non-binary for example.
-That means we have been misgendering them for two whole ass years?!- Half screeches Sero before slapping his hand against his mouth, eyes on Aizawa who only shifted a bit, turning his face the other way, other than that he didn't do anything else.
-I guess...
-Then no more, that atrocity ends today.- Dictates the whole room firmly, like a bunch with a mission, it's both cute and amusing, Thirteen really was gonna flip out tomorrow then, God knows they needed some validation, Mic sometimes wished he could scream at the top of his lungs for the world to stop fucking around with people's pronouns.
-What about others?
-Midnight's bisexual, a raging chaotic bisexual, probably more so than me which is kind of offending if you ask me.- States the voice hero faking offense, as if that title was his property, it made a few kids snicker.
-That's so manly, womanly though.- Sniffles Kirishima, another bi icon to look up to.
-I know right? Tiger and Mandalay are both trans.- Mic didn't miss the way Kaminari seemed to perk up at that.
-They are?
-Yup, they are both actually planning to come out in a few weeks, so you were gonna find out either way.- Says the voice hero, making the electric boy beam at that in excitement.
So cute.
-Miruko and Mount Lady are both also bisexual.
-So many bicons.- Says Kirishima proudly, so many, it gave him the confidence he needed for when he sometimes felt unsure about himself, nice, comforting.
-Bubble Girl's a raging lesbian, Hawks aro, Ryuukyuu and Sir Nighteye are also ace, or dragons like Shouta secretly calls them.- Says the voice hero getting a few giggles in return.- Also, this boy here shares the gayness with Sir Nighteye, two rainbows who hate on people, just that Sir does has sense of humor.- Says Mic getting a few bright looks at that, though his words also get him a poke on his ribs and annoyed black eyes staring up at him.
-Just because you are not funny doesn't mean I don't have sense of humor.- Says the erasure hero, voice flat, hoarse.
-Apply ice to the burnt area.- Instructs Shinso with a shit eating grin.
-Hey! Don't mock adults!
-He's mocking an adult? Must be invisible then.- Deadpans Aizawa as he leans away from Mic, yet he doesn't really wield the vibe of someone who wants to be awake, he goes back to lean against Mic, pulling the blanket tighter around them.
-Shouta that hurts you know? I'm the oldest person in this room have some respect.- Huffs Mic, Aizawa snorts at that.
-And you are proud of that? Good for you.
-Hey!
-You are the oldest person here...?- Blinks Tsuyu tilting her head to the side in question.
-I'm not that old don't give me that look!- Says Mic utterly offended at the frog girl's look, just how old did she thought he was?!
-But if you are older and Aizawa's....
Kaminari didn't finish his sentence, making the erasure hero's eyes fall on him, narrowing, to be honest? Aizawa kind of freaked out for a moment when he heard Mic speaking with the kids, but after listening for a while he came to the conclusion that there was nothing to worry about.
-How old do you think I am?- Asks Aizawa at the boy's silence, his age wasn't something he really cared about, less much to share, not that the kids at some had had to know.
-55?
That was Todoroki.
Mic choked in a laughter, bastard started laughing his ass off as Aizawa's eyes widened ever so slightly.
-55?- Repeats the erasure hero actually shocked, did he really looked that old?
-50?- Dares to ask Koda this time, his words only making Mic laugh harder, Aizawa's eyebrow twitched as he leans away from the voice hero.
-47?- Asks Yaoyorozu politely, Mic got an elbow to the ribs courtesy of Aizawa.
-I'm not even past 40.- States the erasure hero mildly offended.
-Seriously?!
-Lies!
-That's impossible!
-Sensei how old are you?
-I told you we went to U.A. with Tensei didn't I?- Asks Mic in amusement.
-31?- Frowns Iida mildly stupified.
-Bingo! This guy here is still in his early youth! He even held Iida when he was nothing but a baby!- Declared the voice hero throwing his arms around an annoyed looking Aizawa.
Jaws dropped at that statement though.
-Holy shit.
-My whole life has been a lie!
As chaos broke across the room Aizawa couldn't help but sigh, arms returning to hug Mic's mid, the action getting him a kiss on the forehead.
-I thought you said you weren't cuddling with me.- Whispers the voice hero into the other's ear.
-And I'm not, as I said before, you are just in the way.
-Am I now?- Smirks the blonde man, Aizawa glares at him, even more as Mic hugs him closer, kissing his cheek playfully, Aizawa glares at the little shits who suddenly found their display more interesting than dying over his age.
-Say a word and I will expel you.
-Don't be so grumpy Sho, leave the kids be they aren't doing anything, they are all angels.- Smirks the blonde man.
-Angels my ass.
-Sensei that's rude.
Aizawa glares at the group even more.
Yet cuddling with someone while wrapped in a cat paw themed blanket, cheeks pink and having his cheek kissed doesn't exactly give Aizawa a threatening vibe.
If all.
He looks more like an annoyed cat.
Which is funny to be honest.
It's also comforting to know that there are heroes out there just like them, even if the public doesn't know for them is enough to know it.
That they aren't alone.
That even if out of the public eye.
They can still be humans.
