Chapter 21: Never should have happened

I woke up Tuesday feeling more energized than usual which was probably due to my week of vacation. When I got out of bed, Chi was already at his computer, hard at work. I brushed off the cat fur that gathered on my hero costume as I walked into the bathroom. I got ready pretty quickly compared to how I usually get ready. I even curled my hair by hand rather than just using a quirk or flat ironing it. Once I was finished with that, I walked out and stopped by Chi; putting my hand in his shoulder to gain his attention.

"Do you have to go to work?" Chi whined quietly.

"Yeah, I'm afraid I do." I said in a low tone before a slightly upbeat one, "Hey, on the bright side I don't have to go to the agency today after I get done at UA."

"I suppose that's a good thing."

I removed my hand from his shoulder, "I better be going, see you later."

"Love you." he said quickly as I began to leave the bedroom.

"You too, you idiot." I said before I closed the door behind me.

As I walked past Reiji's room, I remembered that I had to teleport him back home at five since he was still at I-island. I went to the kitchen and grabbed my bento out of the fridge before going to the door to put on my boots. That Thursday before I went on vacation, Aizawa sort of got after me for not eating properly. So, that meant he was going to make Yamada make me a lunch or I have to be a big girl and make my own. Honestly I'd rather eat whatever Yamada would make, but I have to be responsible and do it myself.

When I got out to the car and was on my way to the school, I noticed how quiet the roads were. Usually they seem busier and/or packed with people and cars. I guess that people aren't out that much on a Tuesday morning since those who have jobs are more likely already at their work. Once I found a parking spot, I gathered my bag of supplies and purse from the passenger seat before I got out. I then walked into the school with a feeling of dread. I didn't know why I began to feel it, but it made me feel uneasy. When I made it to the teachers office, that feeling went away sort of, but once I took a seat at my desk, it came back.

"So, how was your little vacation?" Mic asked as he stopped looking at papers.

I shoved my bags under my desk as I replied, "It was beneficial. I feel more energized." I paused before adding, "I'm sort of glad I listened to Toshi and took a break from everything."

"Well duh, you have to take a break every once in a while. No matter how busy you are, it has to happen." Aizawa added, which I thought he was asleep.

"Uh huh, and when was the last time you took one?" I asked in a skeptical tone. He didn't reply.

"When was the last time we took a break from work?" Mic asked himself quietly.

A few minutes later the first bell rang and almost everyone left to go contend with their homeroom. Aizawa just sat there at his desk. I poked him in the shoulder as I asked, "Don't you have to go too?"

He leaned back in his chair as he replied, "Midnight said she was going to deal with homeroom today since she was going to start to have the students get ideas about their hero name."

"Already? Wow, it seemed like it was months in when everyone else had to choose theirs." I said as I thought about my days from UA.

There was a slight pause before he asked, "So, how was the time with getting Chikao back home?"

I laughed at the memory of it before starting the short story, "When we left the bar, he forgot that I was his wife and asked me out. He knew he was married, but didn't know he was talking to her. I asked if his wife would be angry, he said that she probably would be but that didn't matter because he thought I was so pretty." I had to pause to laugh a little before I went on, which through my quiet laughter, I could hear Aizawa chuckling. "It wasn't until we got home that he remembered that I am his wife. Then after that-" I was cut off by the phone on my desk that began to ring. I put my hand on the phone as I said quickly, "Remind me where I was with the story, otherwise surley I'll forget." then answered the phone, "Hello, this is Blank speaking."
