Little Acts Of Kindness

27. The Trouble With Voice Quirks

Shouta frowned as he returned to his students after lunch, “Where is Midoriya?" he questioned after the bell rang.

“He’s in the nurse's office,” Yaoyorozu informed.

“What happened?”

“It was super gross, he was coughing blood,” Mineta said, shuddering.

“Recovery Girl seems to think it has to do with his quirk,” Tokoyami informed. 

Shouta nodded, and proceeded to start the lecture on how to behave during the internships. If it had to do with his quirk, and Midoriya was coughing blood, then the kid probably decided to fully trust Hizashi. His husband would be pleased at least.

He wrapped up the heroics lecture as the bell rang and the kids left and Shouta made his way to Hizashi’s classroom. Poking his head in he waited for the last stragglers of Hizashi’s class to leave.

Hizashi smiled at him, Shouta just gave a bit of a smirk, “Midoriya apparently has decided you're trustworthy.”

Hizashi’s eyes widened, “What? Wait… is that why he started coughing in class? Because his quirk was kicking in? Where is he now?”

“Either still in the nurse's office, or at home resting most likely.”

“Let’s go check! Besides, he’s going to need help with controlling the quirk. Do you remember how much trouble I had?”

“Unfortunately,” Shouta deadpanned.

Hizashi gave an offended gasp, slapping him lightly on the arm, “Don’t be mean Sho~!”

He stared blankly for a half a minute, creating an awkward moment of silence before he replied, “You nearly deafened the entire class before I joined. They literally had to rebuild the room to be soundproof just for your quirk.”

Hizashi pouted.

The two arrived and Shuzenji looked at them, “About time you arrived!” she huffed.

“You were expecting us?”

“I sent you two an email before lunch,” she said, waving her cane at them.

“I didn’t check my emails today.”

“I had a student who needed help and couldn’t look,” Hizashi answered sheepishly.

The old woman grumbled, “I didn’t want to risk Midoriya deafening anyone accidentally, so I kept him here under strict instructions to not talk. Since I do remember what you did on your first day here Hizashi.”

Hizashi just hung his head, a metaphorical dark cloud hanging above him as he sulked. From one of the beds the curtains moved away and Midoriya poked his head out, Shouta saw how the boy beamed and quickly made his way over to them, grinning.

Hizashi seeing the kid brightened up, “Midoriya!” His husband bent down, “Can I hug you?" he asked.

Midoriya nodded and Hizashi swept the kid into a hug and Shouta caught his husband whispering to the kid of how happy he was, and that he promised to never break the trust Midoriya placed in him.
