Work Text:
It was a normal day starting for Aizawa. Well, that’s what he thought.
He woken up, like usual, then he woken up his husband, his daughter and his son, just as normally.
And, he could drink his 3 liters of coffee necessary for breakfast.
He even could go to his classroom without any problem.
However, it's when he opened the door of his classroom he knew this day will be long.
That's not when he saw Lida make strange gestures with his arms he knew. Neither when he looked at Kaminari, who was chewing his charger, with his phone at it. No. It's when he saw Bakugo, he knew.
Bakugo who wasn't shouting. Bakugo who didn't injure anybody. Bakugo who didn't even give a killer look to Midoriya. And Midoriya.
Midoriya who wasn't discussing joyfully with his friends. Midoriya who wasn't writing in his notebook with his mutters. Midoriya was just slumped on his table, with no looks for anyone.
Aizawa sigh, but doesn't say anything, he prefers to start his class. Class which was totally like usual -or, as much as usual that it can be with the 1A class-, until the bell, at noon.
"- Alright guys, you can go eating. See you after lunch."
All the students were going out, discussing, and Aizawa closed the door after they. When he turned back, he jumped when he saw Midoriya and Bakugo who were waiting for him. He looked at them, but faced to their silence, he started to talk.
"- Yes ? Is there any problem ?"
Midoriya stared at him for seconds, that made Aizawa see the tears in his eyes. Then Bakugo hit him with his elbow to make him talk, and, finally, after a big inhalation, the green started.
"- Sensei... I- I wanted to know... Well, um... That's.. eum- Last evening, I was eating at the cafeteria, and, eum... The problem was definitely not the food, Lunch Rush's cooking is always amazing, especially his Katsudon-
- Short, Deku ! We don't care about this cheap chef !
- Y-Yes ! Sorry !! Well, um, so, this time, there were broccoli to eat... And Todoroki was saying I look like the broccoli, and I like I eat it, it was a form of cannibalism ! I'm worried about being a cannibal, Sensei..."
There was silence. Aizawa looked at Midoriya, and asked himself if the kid was serious, made him lose his precious time of sleep, just for a cannibal broccoli story ? But in view of the tears in his eyes, he was obliged to understand that, yes, he was really serious.
"- Midoriya... Damn, Todoroki was just joking... Like the 23 last times...
- Ha ! I told you, nerd ! That idiot of double face was just amused of you because you believe anything he says !
- O-Oh. Thank you so much, sensei ! I am really relieved knowing I didn't do anything bad !
- ..."
Aizawa sighed when Bakugo and Midoriya were leaving together, the blond repeating a ton of "I told you !".
--------------------
Later, in the afternoon, Aizawa hoped that his day will not be as bad as he thought at the start. Midoriya and Bakugo were returned to their habits, and all the students were quiet, like it rarely happens. However, this hope was destroyed with the song of Hizashi's voice from his phone. His wonderful husband obviously thought changing his phone's ring was really funny.
He sighed, then picked up his phone, with the chuckles of his students.
"- Hello ?
- Shouta ! Glad you picked up.
- Nedzu ? What's going on ?
- Well... We had a little problem with Hitoshi. It would be really kind to come to my office.
- ... I'm coming...
- Thank you ! See you in a minute."
Aizawa sighed for the umpteenth time of the day and said that Lida should look the class, then went to the office of his boss.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"- Shouta ! Come in !"
Aizawa came into his boss's office and found his son sitting in front of him, with one, two, three, four cats around him. He sigh. Again. Then he got closer, sat on the second chair and saw... Two other cats, sleeping on Shinsou's knees, who were turning red. So, six cats. Well, he could deal with that.
"- So, Shouta, like you can see, Hitoshi bought six abandoned cats here. In Yuei. We found those six in the common room of his dormitory.
- «those six» ? There is another ?
- Well, we haven't looked in his room.
- ...
- Dad, I-
- How many?
- Um, first, I'm sor-
- How. Many.
- Six...
- Six ? Just those so, good.
- Six more in my room...
- ...
- And three more in Tsuka's room...
- fifteen...
- I'm sorr-
- fifteen ! It's more than twelve !
- Um... Actually, yes... Dad ?
- Shouta.
- Nedzu.
- You're not disappointed because he beat your record, right ?
- ...
- Shouta...
- Nedzu...
- Lost causes, son like father.
- I had the record since-
- I know.
- ...
- ...
- ...
- Hitoshi, kid, you'll give back all those cats.
- But they don't have homes !
- I'll find them a rescue center. Does that sound good ?
- But... I can't abandon Biscuit ! And Bianca, and nuggets, and Totoro, and Ramses, and Neferti, and Meow-Meow, and-
- Yes, Toshi, you can. Believe me, Nedzu doesn't give you the choice...
- Please, Dad ! Let me just keep one !
- ...
- Shouta, be stro-
- Ok.
- ...
- Yes ! Thanks, Dad ! I want to keep Totoro ! You'll love him !
- Shouta, did you think about what Hizashi was going to say ?
- Yeah. That's revenge, for a phone ring.
- ... Alright... Do what you want..."

When he came back to his classroom, Aizawa doesn't have any hopes this day can have a good end yet. He only hoped it would not be entirely catastrophic.
But, again, he was mistaken a lot. Why was he mistaken? Well, he thought to find his students, including the representative, in a dance course with Mina, can't really be noticed like a "win" of his teacher's career. Aizawa sighed.
"- Mina, explain.
- Sensei ! Oops ! I am sorry !
- Explain.
- Um, okay. Well, I told, again, to Lida, that his gesture was too mechanical... And that he misses suppleness !
- Lida. Is that true ?
- Yes, sensei. Then, I told her if it's so easy for her, she can teach me...
- And the dance is a really good way to work on suppleness, sensei !
- I will turn a blind eye to that, I'm not in a good mood to deal with this today. Everyone at their places, let's pick up the class."
___________
It was only a tenth of minutes before the end of the last class of Aizawa's day. A tenth of minutes, and he shouldn't need to put up with these teenagers incapable of staying calm and not being in danger for more than 30 seconds. Ten minutes.
Yet, it was in that time Kaminari decided he didn't have his number of almost death of the day.
He wanted to throw himself out of the window.
In the literal sense.
For a bet.
With Kirishima.
Kirishima ?
Yes, Kirishima. Surprising.
Aizawa sighed.
"- But ! Sensei ! Kirishima just said that Crimson Riot had done this ! Why I can't ??
- First, Crimson Riot had a quirk what made that can be done. Second, it was in special circumstances, that can explain that behavior, the rescue of civilians. Third, he obviously doesn't have a good teacher.
- That's true... But I'll gain 1700 ¥ if I do it ! (Almost 10,76$)
- Alright, I offer you 2000 if you don't do that.
- ... Sorry Kiribro... 2000, that's more than 1700. And I'm broke."
With those words, Aizawa picked money out of his wallet, gave it to Kaminari who shined (almost literally, there was little electric shock noise from his hair) then the ring bell announced the end of the class. Finally. Aizawa sighed of relief.

Just arrive at his house's door, Aizawa's phone rang. He grouched when he responded to Cementos.
"- Hello ? Aizawa, I'm sorry for bothering you, but I have been asked for a problem in the city, an earthquake destroyed the road... I was watching the 1A dormitory, but I need to be replaced... You're the only teacher free tonight...
- Alright. You can count on me.
- Ah ! Thank you so much, I'm really grateful !"
Shouta sighed. He doesn't say goodbye to his problem's child yet.

Hizashi was on patrol this evening, so Aizawa picked Eri with him in the dormitory of his class.
When the girls saw her, they decided they wanted to make her princess hairs. They were doing that, and Midoriya, miraculously, took Rikido and Bakougo to help him to make candy apples for her.
Unfortunately, Aoyama was around.
"- What is your strange mixture ?
- Sugar! Melted, with a little colorant, to coat the apples !
- Mh... Don't this miss cheese ?
- Damn it, no, disco ball !!
- Are you sure ?
- Yes, Yuga, Thank you for your participation, but trust me, I'm Rikido Sato !
- Right, right... oh ! Look at Eri's beautiful hair !"
The three boys left the cooking for seconds (Bakougo was forced by Midoriya), that's permit to Yuuga to... Put some camembert into the preparation. Aizawa saw it, and asked Aoyama to arrange his idiocy, but there was no sugar anymore for a new preparation. So Eri licked and bit into the rest in the pan, with the Midoriya's depressed eye and the sulky Yuuga's eye.
This too much sugar pulled a half an hour of insanity by the kid, who can't stop running in all ways, unlike hid habits. Aizawa sighed.

At the curfew time, Aizawa checked the rooms, to make sure that nobody would get out, but Todoroki stopped him.
"- Sensei, wait.
- Yes, Todoroki ?
- Could you, please, sign up for this ?
- What is this ?
- Oh, that's not important. Sign up here, here, and here, please.
- Todoroki.
- Sensei.
- Show me all the documents, please.
- Couldn't you just sign up.?
- ...
- ...
- Here is the document...
- Todoroki. I'm not gonna adopt you.
- But-
- Your dad is alive. So, there is no reason for me to adopt you.
- You adopted Shinsou.
- His guardian asked me, because he doesn't like him.
- ...
- Don't even think to make your dad sign up for that kind of document.
- And what if he di-
- And don't think to kill him neither.
- ...
- Right. Good night, Todoroki.
- Good night, Sensei..."
Aizawa shook his head and closed Todoroki's door, then he sighed.

When he arrived at his door, Eri asleep in his arms, Aizawa saw an envelope. He took it, put Eri in her own bed and then went into the kitchen for open it. It's at this moment that Hizashi came back, he put a hand on his shoulder and told him good evening.
"- Hizashi, you scared me.
- Sorry Shou ! What is that envelope ?
- I don't know, let me open it."
Aizawa opened it and discovered two pieces of sheets, first a letter :
"For Aizawa Shouta, in honor of the national day of teachers. From all the 1A class, and Hitoshi."
The second sheet was thicker, cardboard, with a print of a certificate, the certificate of the "Teacher the most patient, most kind, and most devoted, Aizawa Shouta."
"- Ooh ! What cuties, those kids ! You are so lucky with your class, Shou !
- You're right... Even if they are noisy and troublesome, I love them after all.
- Ha ha ! A rare love declaration from Shouta Aizawa for his 21 problem childs !
- 22.
- 22 ?
- I have 22 problem childs.
- Oh really ? Eri is so kind.
- I'm not talking about Eri.
- Ah ? So about who ?
- You, Zashi. You.
- What ?! I don't permit you !"
Aizawa smiled and showed his phone, and Hizashi blushed a little. And then Totoro, a grey cat, with a big mouth and a white stomach with some black marks, got in and yawn.
"- And for that, here is Totoro, love.
- Shouta-
- It's your son, not me."
On those words, Shouta put the certificate on the fridge with a magnet, then he finally goes to bed at his turn, with a sulky Hizashi.
So it's that, a normal day in Aizawa Shouta's life.
