Mirio and I stood on the tarmac of Ground Beta, waiting for the students to arrive. The air was warm and a tad humid, the sun bright.

"Hey Mirio." I said.

"What's up?"

"Is it okay if we spar to show the kids what I mean? Distraction wise?" I asked sheepishly. I'm not sure how he would feel fighting me.

"Yeah sure! Whatever will help them learn!" He exclaimed, smiling at me. I chuckled.

"You're rather optimistic. Teaching must be important to you."

"Oh yeah, teaching is great! I love working with the kids, it's the best feeling ever knowing that I helped make the next generation of hero's. Really rewarding you know?" He asked, eyes twinkling. It was cute.

"It's good to have something you're passionate about, and teaching is obviously that something for you. It's awesome to see people so invested in what they do." He smiled at me, and we heard the gate rattle. We turned, expecting to see students, but were met with Tamaki.

"Hey Amajiki!" Mirio exclaimed.

"Hey! Wait what is (L-L/N) doing here?" He seemed to loose confidence when his eyes met mine, but I didn't have time to put up a wall.

Did he get me out here on purpose? Oh god, why is she here? Mirio knows I get all flustered around attractive people!

I felt bad for the poor guy, though I was flattered. I waved, smiling at him. "Hi Tamaki. How are you?"

"I-I'm good." He stuttered out, nervously looking to Mirio. "Did you need something?"

"Not really. I just wanted you to see (L/N)." Mirio explained, smiling. "She's teaching my class right now, and I figured it might be interesting to watch so I brought you along. I would have asked Nejire, but she has a class at this time." Tamaki nodded shyly in my direction, and I smiled, attempting to make him feel more comfortable.

"Mirio-Sensei, (L/N)-Sensei, Suneater! A pleasure." Says Asa, bowing at the hip towards each of us. She's literally Iida, oh my god.

"There's no need to bow sweetie, I'm not the emperor." I chuckled, smiling at her. "I'm just a detective."

"I've told you before Asa, you really don't need to bow every time you see a teacher." Mirio said. The girl nodded vigorously and waited for the rest of her class. I looked over at Tamaki, who was blushing from embarrassment, chin to his chest.

"Are you alright?" I asked, putting my hand on his shoulder. He squeaked, flinching. I moved my hand away, leaving it to hover over his shoulder, shaking my head. "Right!" I chuckled, "You don't like being touched. Sorry."

He quickly pushed my hand down with his, so that it was resting on his shoulder again. He blushed harder, looking away.

"You just caught me by surprise is all." He stuttered out. I looked at him in surprise, opening my mouth to say something.

"(L/N)!" Mirio exclaimed, making Tamaki and I look up. He gestured to the crowd of students around him. "Ready?" I smiled and nodded, turning back to Tamaki.

"Let's talk later." He nodded, still looking away.

"So," I said, approaching the students, "how are we all feeling?" They looked at each other, trying to figure out what to say. "Just a simple question. There's no trick."
