Chapter 2

I'm back! Welcome everybody to the second chapter of 'Redemption of the Innocent'. In this one, we are going to see some, or a lot of Dadzawa fluff in action. And because I don't know what else to say, let's go to the story!

Legend:

"Talking."

'Thinking...'

Chapter 2: Temporal Home

Aizawa was being escorted towards Izuku's cell, being followed by Yamada. He could hear Izuku's cries, so he ends up by going up ahead of the officer that was guiding him.

He walked until he was face-to-face to the cell door. Izuku stopped crying and looked at him. "W-Who are you?" He managed to stutter out.

"Name's Shouta Aizawa. I'm taking you out of here." Aizawa explained with his usual expression that unsurprisingly, scared the kid even more, backing up until his back hit the wall where he stared at the hero with fear.

Aizawa sighed. Why did Yamada convinced him to do this? He doesn't have the right face, looks, voice or personality to deal with children. Especially the type that have some sort of trauma.

And who can blame the kid? He is the son of two villains and they are blaming him for all that they had done. He had been locked up, bullied, intimidated in a short amount of time.

"Look kid," Aizawa started "I know that you don't trust me, or anyone right now, but, if you want to go to a better place than this," He pointed to the cell "You need to go with me. Ok?" He tired putting his best 'nice guy' expression.

This time, surprisingly, Izuku gave a shaky nod as he stood up and walked to the cell door. Aizawa motioned the door to be opened and the officer obliged. Aizawa offered his hand to Izuku for him to take it. He was hesitant at first, slowly approaching his hand slowly for then retreating it and holding it close to him.

Aizawa sighed 'This is going to be hard...'

*Aizawa Apartment*

They took a cab to Aizawa's floor. Yamada constantly tried to make Izuku feel better by telling jokes, singing or doing something stupid in Aizawa opinion.

But Izuku was warry. He looked around frenetically, like if something was going to jump at him from the roof or windows.

Or if they were going to attack him.

Once they arrived, Yamada had to leave due to a new job he took. He still hasn't told Aizawa what is it about, but he suspects that, knowing his friend, is something just as loud as him.

Aizawa guided Izuku to his floor and then he opened the door of his own apartment.

"This is my home. You'll be staying here for a while." Aizawa said to him and Izuku looked at him confused.

"B-But I thought you were going to take me?"

Aizawa shook his head "No kid. I am too busy and young to be a parent. You'll stay here with me until they found someone capable of taking care of you." Aizawa said as he entered, followed by Izuku. "Let me show you your room."

*Night Time*

Aizawa went to Izuku's room, and knocked the door "Hey kid, dinner's ready." He said but there was no answer. He got worried that something happened to him. He has been in his room since they arrived.

"I'm coming in." He said as he opened the door to Izuku room, where he could see the kid under the covers of his bed in what he could think, was a sited position.

Aizawa walked next to him and sat on the edge of the bed. Izuku noticed that and quickly got off the bed and hide behind the bed, only poking his eyes out.

Aizawa let out a sigh "What were you doing?"

"D-Drawing." Izuku said shakily and Aizawa noticed that on the bed, there was a notebook that he left on the room and next to it a pen. He took the notebook and saw that there was some sort of mist-man in a suit draw on it.

"Who is this?"

Izuku looked up at him "M-Mr. Kurogiri..." Izuku said wondering if it would be bad if this man knew about his friend "He-He was nice to me and-and he is my f-friend..."

Aizawa nodded as he handed the notebook at Izuku "That's good. I hope I could meet him one day."

Izuku quickly took the notebook and look at the picture. "Hey, dinner is getting cold, so let's go." Izuku nodded and followed the man out towards the kitchen.

On the table, there were two plates of ramen. "I only had instant ramen. I hope you don't mind it, tomorrow I'll buy more food." Aizawa said and Izuku looked at him.

"N-No! It is okay Mr. Aizawa. I-I like ramen." Izuku said and Aizawa nodded.

They ate in silence, neither knowing what to say. Aizawa not really used to being around kids and Izuku to scared to talk.

"How is it? The food I mean." Aizawa asked, trying to make small talk and Izuku jumped at the question.

"I-It is good. T-Thank you." Izuku said looking at his plate and playing with the noodles in the plate.

Aizawa nodded and looked at the living room and had an idea "Hey kid, do you like TV?"

Izuku looked at him and gave a small nod "Mr. Kurogiri let me watch the news..."

Aizawa nodded and looked at the clock that was on the wall. "Around this hour they put the late news. Want to watch them?"

Izuku looked at Aizawa and his eyes had some sort shine "Really?"

Aizawa nodded "Yes kid. Take your ramen, I hate wasting food." He said as he stood up, grabbed his plate and went to the couch. Izuku quickly followed.

They watched the news in silence, but Aizawa noted that Izuku was interested and even happy.

After some hours, Izuku was about to fall asleep, so Aizawa carried him towards his room and tucked him in his bed. He was going to leave and he heard Izuku mutter "Thank you Mr. Aizawa..."

Aizawa smiled slightly at his words "You're welcome kid."

*A Couple of Days Later*

"Mr. Aizawa..." Aizawa turned his head to Izuku and saw that he was holding his notebook.

"What is it?"

Izuku handed him the notebook and Aizawa saw that there was a drawing of what he could guess was him, with a big smile. A top of the page there was written in big letters 'THANK YOU'.

"What's this?" Aizawa asked looking from the corner of his eye to Izuku that fidgeted with his fingers.

"I-Is that you treated me well t-this days and-and you didn't ask anything in change, be-because of that I-I-"

"Kid, relax. I don't ask you anything in change because I want to do this. I care about you. No matter who your parents are, I already decided that you are going to have a better life. And I am going to make sure that it happens. Okay?"

Izuku felt tears welling up in his eyes "Mr. Aizawa..." Right then, Izuku did something Aizawa didn't expect.

Izuku hugged him.

It was an awkward hug. Aizawa wasn't used to the show of affection, so slowly he wrapped his arms around Izuku.

"C'mon kid, don't get like that. I thought that you already knew that I am not good with emotions."

*Some Months Later*

"And that's why, it would be the best idea for you to adopt The Little Listener!" Yamada declared after a 10-minute speech, trying to convince his friend to adopt Izuku. That way he can become the world best dad.

And he, the world most awesome uncle!

Aizawa looked at him with his deadpan expression "Are you done?"

Yamada nodded with a big grin on his face "Yeah! So, what's your answer?"

"No."

Yamada face fell "But why!?"

Aizawa shook his head "I'm too young to raise a kid."

"Then what have you done this couple of months?" Yamada questioned.

"I just made sure the kid stayed alive."

"Nop! You made sure that the Little Listener was happy. C'mon Shouta! Admit it! You care for him more that you let go!"

Aizawa sighed "Look; I care about him, but I doubt he will be okay living for the rest of his life with me. I am not the sociable kind of guy. He stands me because he isn't neither. He would be better with a real family."

Yamada released a frustrated sigh "He is happy with you Shouta. He just wants to be accepted. I saw it in his eyes. And you accepted him. Don't let that go away."

Aizawa looked at his friend "I... will consider it."

Yamada grinned "That's enough for me pal!"

Right then, someone knocked on the door. Aizawa sighed as he stood up nand went to see who was bothering him. He opened the door to see a blue skinned lady, in a formal suit with a notepad at hand.

"Hello, Shouta Aizawa I guess?" Aizawa nodded "Good. My name is Natsuki Maizono and I represent the child-protective services. We wanted to announce you that, we founded a good foster family for Izuku and we are taking him today."

Aizawa nodded hesistantly "I... see. Izuku! Come here." Loud footsteps where heared before Izuku appeared and hid behind Aizawa's leg.

"Mr. Aizawa; what's going on?"

Aizawa took a deep breath "Go for your stuff. They found some people that will take care of you."

Izuku visibly didn't like the sound of it "B-But you are taking care of me!"

"Don't make this harder kid."

"B-But I don't wanna go! I want to stay with Mr. Aizawa!" Izuku cried as he hugged Aizawa leg. Aizawa picked up Izuku and went to his room. Between the both of them they packed up his back pack and slowly walked to the entrance.

Natsuki said that she would take care from there and slightly dragged Izuku to the car, which was suspicious to Aizawa but didn't comment on it. "Goodbye Mr. Aizawa..." Izuku muttered loud enough for Aizawa to hear.

"Goodbye kid." He said as he closed the door with a heavy heart.

Surprisingly, Yamada didn't say anything during that exchange. "So, what now?"

"What do you mean 'what now'? He is off and better now." Aizawa said back and Yamada scratched his chin.

"She seemed kind of forced. Don't you think?"

"Go to the point." Aizawa deadpanned feeling slightly annoyed by his friend pestering him.

"My point is-" Yamada started but was interrupted by the phone ringing.

Aizawa picked up the phone. "Yes?"

"Hello, we are calling to inform that we found a foster family for Izuku Midoriya. We would appreciate if you could come and drop him here during this week."

"What do you mean? You just send someone to pick him up." Aizawa said and there was heard some mumbling noises in the back.

"Ehm, we are sorry, but we didn't send anybody. Are you sure that-" Aizawa heard enough. He looked at Yamada that was looking at him confused.

"Is everything ok?"

"Get your gear. Izuku is in trouble." Was Aizawa answer as he put on his yellow goggles.

And done! This was chapter number 3 of 'Redemption of the Innocent'. Hope that you enjoyed. As I said before, this chapter was a try at some Dadzawa fluff. And I was slightly running out of creativity, so I hope that the chapter wasn't to forced. And now, next chapter will have Izuku in trouble and Dadzawa will come into the scene to save the day! And that's all! Leave your Review that it helps my motivation, PM me for any doubts or suggestion, Follow and Favorite the story and me.

Till Next Time.
