Katrina's lips turned into a frown. She has been staring at her husband's face since he walked in. A big curved scar under his right eye was staring at her. Katrina was about to open his mouth but Shouta interrupted her, "No. You are pregnant and we talked about this with your quirk. No. Now do you have any 5's?"
Katrina grumbled, "No. Go fish."
Her husband moved and took a card from the pile inbetween the two. Katrina asked, "Any queens?"
Shouta grabbed his queens and handed them to her. She moved them around in her hand and placed the matching queens down to her side on the bed. She continued, "What about 8's? And all I'm saying is that if I would've used my quirk to at least taken the scar or take it partially... it wouldn't be so bad."
Shouta replied, "Go fish. Like I said, Katrina, no. I would've erased your quirk once I knew you would pull such stunt. Are you saying I'm not handsome anymore?"
Katrina huffed reaching for a card. She placed it next to her other 7. She started, "I'm not saying you aren't anymore. You are definitely handsome. The scar may of added some edge to your look but I rather not see you were once in pain."
Shouta's eyes darted up. His attention was turned to her big thick scar resting on her cheek trailing down to her collarbone. Shouta placed his cards down. He crossed his arms, "That's how I felt when you took that person's wound all those years ago."
Katrina's hand immediately went to her long scar. She could feel the little knots made from the scar tissue. If she were to take all of that wound, the civilian would've died. Lucky enough for her when she transferred it, she was by the EMTs to get immediate attention. Katrina argued back, "That's a different story. The guy would've died."
Shouta huffed air through his nose. He closed his eyes placing a hand to his temple. He started to massage it, "I understand that but you could've died on that table. You didn't have to take more than half of that wound."
Katrina reached over to grab his hand from his temple. She gave it a squeeze, "I'm here and about to have your children and that's all that matters."
Shouta squeezed her hand back. He moved it in front of his lips. She felt her heart do a little leap at the action of him giving a soft kiss to her knuckles. He kept her hand on his cheek by his mouth so he can place small kisses to it while they talked. She asked, "School would be starting back up again right? Did any student caught your eye?"
He answered, "Yes, school would be starting up tomorrow. I'm going to have the students choose their code names with the help of Midnight."
Katrina asked, "Is she still bothering you about visiting?"
Her husband groaned. She took that as a yes. Katrina pulled her hand from his slack grip. She piped up, "It wouldn't be all that bad for the staff to come visit. I know the doctor said no visitors other than the two of you but shouldn't you and her make an exception? I am growing bored. I've been on walks with Aiko-san. Hizashi pops in with you. It can be supervised if need to be just in case they get too rowdy..."
Shouta stared at his wife as she continued to ramble. Shouta interrupted her standing up, "Okay. I'll talk with the doctor. The nurse should be coming in to replace that blood bag."
Katrina glanced at the blood bag next to her IV. She pursed her lips. A knock on the door caught the couple's attention. The door slowly opened, "Hey Katrina, I'm here to change out the blood bag."
Shouta mumbled, "Speaking of the devil..."
Shouta has nothing against the blue haired woman but she reminded him of Hizashi in a sense. He only could handle one at a time. Shouta leaned over giving a small kiss to Katrina's lips, "I'll be back."
Aiko slowly walked in and Shouta gave her a curt nod as he walked out. Aiko rubbed her neck, "You sure he is okay with me?"
Katrina chuckled, " 'Course. He can only handle so much excitement from one person at a time."
Aiko reached for a blood bag from the little fridge beside the bed. She started to change them out. Aiko gave a nod of understanding, "Just like the hero Present Mic, right?"
Katrina's lips went into a smile, "Yeah. You have that excitement like him but Mic is way worse. Trust me. He likes you, I promise."
Aiko held onto the empty blood bag, "I guess that's a relief. I don't want the husband of my patient to hate me when I'm going to be helping deliver his children."
The auburn haired woman snorted, "It takes a lot for him to hate someone. He just seems to be serious all the time. Now do you have the goods?"
Aiko laughed, "It's on the cart outside. I'll get it for you."
The nurse disappeared for a hot minute and came back with blue jello. Katrina smiled big, "Oh yes. Come to mama!"
Katrina took the blue jello cup and spoon. She hummed when she took the first bite. Aiko chuckled at the pregnant woman's antics.
A certain blue haired student caught his teacher again speaking with a doctor. His brows knitted together. His homeroom teacher should be okay now, right? He had half the mind to go up and ask but he shook his head heading to his brother's room.
School started back up the next day and the students of Class 1-A talked amongst themselves while they wait for their teacher. He seemed to be running late. A reddish brown haired girl, Ochaco Uraraka, stood by the green haired student's desk. She speculated, "I wonder if Saving Grace had her babies yet. I overheard some of the teachers speaking about her being in the hospital already."
Iida narrowed his eyes at the words. Deku rubbed his neck, "I hope she is alright."
The pink haired girl overheard the trio's conversation, "I'm sure she is! I think we should go visit her!"
Kirishima smiled big nodding, "Yeah! I think she would love that! Do you know which hospital?"
Uraraka shook her head no, "The teachers weren't saying much other than she was in the hospital and she wasn't accepting visitors."
Sero snapped his fingers, "We should ask Present Mic! The two of them seem to be close. I'm sure he would know."
The pink haired girl, Mina Ashido pumped her fist in the air, "Alright! Let's go after school!"
Deku slumped his shoulders, "Uraraka said the teachers said she wasn't accepting visitors."
Kaminari shook his head, "Soooo? We will just sneak in. Easy Peasy."
Bakugo growled, "Will you guys shut up about that woman? She wasn't all that great."
Ashido placed her hands on her hips, "Bakugo! Give her some respect."
He simply tched looking away. His arms crossed over his chest. The door slid open revealing Midnight. She gave a smile to the class, "Alright! Aizawa had a family emergency to deal with so he'll be late. Now what we are going to be doing is picking out code names."
The students were confused about their homeroom teacher but they listened to the R-rated hero's explanation on why they needed code names.
Shouta's hands were shoved in his pockets. His face looked grim. He stood to the side unable to do anything as he watched the doctors and nurses worked on his wife. He had to call Nezu when he got the chance. A breathing mask was placed ontop of his wife's face. When he saw she had trouble breathing, he thought he gained a speed quirk by how fast he pressed the nurse button. For extra measure, he popped his head out of the room to call out for help. The doctors and nurses were able to get the breathing difficulty under control. Her attending doctor turned to her husband, "I want her to keep that oxygen mask on for a bit. Her preclampsia can cause breathing difficulties. I suggest we move up the due date soon."
Shouta had to ask, "Will she and the children be okay?"
The doctor didn't move her sight away from the erasure hero. She answered, "She will be okay. The children may or may not need to stay in the hospital for monitoring. They will be premies. Sometimes premies depending on how they develop will need extra care."
Shotua nodded. His eyes watched as each doctor and nurse left the room. Aiko stayed for a moment wiping away any sweat that formed on his wife's forehead and face. Aiko spoke to his wife, "You're going to be fine. I suggest taking it easy. That was a mild attack."
Shouta stepped closer to his wife's bed. He held out his hand to Aiko, "I can take over for you."
Katrina's eyes darted to her husband. She tried to speak but Shouta interrupted, "Nezu will understand. Right now you and the babies are more important."
Katrina frowned underneath her oxygen mask. Aiko looked between the couple before handing the man his wife's sweat cloth. Aiko gave a light squeeze to Katrina's shoulder, "I'll be back later to bring you some food and check on you."
Katrina nodded. It was now the two of them. Shouta looked troubled. His wife's voice was muffled but he could make out some of the words, "You are needed at the school. I'll be fine. Like they said it was a mild attack."
She watched as her husband's frown deepened. He moved her auburn hair out of the elastic of the mask. He spoke, "I'm staying here."
Katrina argued, "At least go back after lunch. For me. I'll have Aiko call you if something happens again. I promise, please."
Shouta hated when his wife does this. He can put his foot down and be absent for the day but he knew his wife wouldn't stop pestering him about it. He groaned, "Fine. I'll leave after lunch. Now rest."
Katrina reached for his hand and gave it a squeeze. He squeezed back. Both heroes were scared. The mild attack caught them both by surprise. She haven't seen her husband panic since she last was in the hospital for the scar.
True to his word despite going against his wishes, he made it to school after lunch. He opened the door to his classroom. His students quieted immediately at the sight of him. He asked his class, "You are done with choosing your code names with the help from Midnight, correct?"
Iida stood up to answer for the class, "Yes, sir."
Aizawa waved his hand for the boy to sit down, "Alright. Now some of you were able to get some offers for internships. Those who did not get any offers from an agency, you are free to choose an agency who is accepting students. Think carefully when choosing your internship. I'll give you by the end of the week to choose."
The school day continued. Present Mic entered the classroom for class 1-A's English lesson since the morning was taken up with code names and internship details. The blond haired hero glanced at the black haired pro-hero. He noticed his friend kept looking at his phone every five minutes. He's' not the only one who noticed. The class noticed. Luckily for the erasure hero, no news meant good news. He couldn't help but worry. Hizashi snapped his book shut, "Remember to read Huckleberry Finn before the term ends, alright ya listeners?"
The class answered, "Yes, sir."
A voice called out to the blond hero, "Present Mic!"
The blond stopped for Aizawa's student. He shot the Kirishima finger guns, "What's up, red head listener?"
Kirishima rubbed the back of his neck, "I was wondering if you could tell me where Miss Katrina is staying at? I heard she was in the hospital and I wanted to give her some flowers, ya know? It's the manly thing to do."
The blond hero debated mentally if he should tell the student or not. He gave an apologetic smile, "I'm sorry, listener. I'm afraid I cannot tell you. She cannot have any visitors."
Kirishima's nervous smile fell. Mic tried to fix it, "B-But I can take the flowers to her!"
The red head rubbed his chin, "I guess that could work..."
Mic gave the boy a thumbs up, "I'll be staying on campus for a bit if you don't mind dropping them off with me."
Kirishima perked up a bit, "Definitely! I'll bring it by once I get them."
Some of the students of Class 1-A mentally cheered on their success. They had a feeling the blond hero wouldn't tell them if she was limited on visitors. They would just follow the man to the hospital. Easy Peasy, right?
The class 1-A stayed a little ways behind the blond hero. What was odd was the blond wasn't alone. Their homeroom teacher was accompanying him. They couldn't hear the adults but they knew their homeroom teacher was upset at their English teacher. Their English teacher held up the bunches of flower bouquets towards their homeroom teacher who shoved his hands deeper into his pockets. Some nurses looked at the 20 students following the two pro heroes. Once the elevator dropped off the duo onto their floor, the class took turns to enter the elevator. Ashido tapped her chin, "How do we know which floor to go to?"
Deku snapped his fingers, "Above the elevator it showed which number they went to. We will go to that one."
It took the class a few trips before everyone was on the same floor. They saw the blond hero smile big forgetting his voice level, "Kitty kat! Look what Aizawa's students got you~!"
Aizawa stayed out of the patient room to speak with the doctor. The doctor nodded before grabbing the phone to call someone. Iida's voice caught the attention of his classmates, "Now it makes sense."
Uraraka asked, "What do you mean, Iida?"
Iida explained, "When I was visiting my brother, I saw Mr. Aizawa here a few times. He was visiting her."
Sero stated, "She did say the two of them were close."
Kirishima added, "They used to go to U.A. together."
The class watched as their teacher disappeared into the room. The group started to creep towards the door once it was clear. They heard voices behind the door.
"I asked the doctor to move the C-section to tomorrow."
An excited voice piped up, "Ohh! Uncle Mic got this packed down. I'm ready."
A breathy laugh was muffled. A muffled voice was hard to make out. Their homeroom teacher answered, "Mic and I put it together already while you were asleep."
A ruffle of a bag sounded through the door. Kaminari tried to move Sero out of the way. He whispered harshly, "Move Sero, I cannot hear."
Those who weren't putting their ears against the door were Todoroki, Tokoyami, and Bakugo. They leaned with their arms crossed or shoved their hands in their pockets against the wall. The stern voice of their homeroom teacher caught their attention, "Mic, no. My children will not wear that."
The shock of his words caused the students to fall against the door. The door nearly slammed open. The students piled ontop of each other groaning. When they looked up to apologize, they saw their teacher with his hair up and capture scarf levitating. He looked mad. The once muffled voice came out clear, "Who is it, Shouta?"
Shouta immediately stopped his quirk turning to his wife. He ordered her, "Put the mask back on. The doctor did not say for you to take that off."
She huffed. Hizashi looked at the pile of students, who were scared shitless, over his orange glasses. His blond brows raised up, "It seems the cat is out the bag."
Aizawa turned to his students, "You lot did not-."
Katrina looked at Mic to gesture for him to do something since she couldn't. Mic went to his best friend, "Woah there. They seemed to be worried about her is all. Now since they are here, shouldn't we let your students meet her officially?"
Katrina's brows raised up. Her husband's students was here. Aizawa frowned. The way he saw it, well the both of them saw it, the less people who knew their connection with each other the better. His students scrambled off the ground. Katrina could see some of them clearly. The room had a little hallway so she couldn't see who else was here. Mic smiled to the students, "Awww come in! I'll make sure the doc do not come by. It'll be our little secret."
He winked towards them. He pushed his way through the mass. The students of class 1-A slowly started to come in. Katrina blinked seeing the whole class was here. Aizawa moved beside his wife's bed. He leaned against the wall with him crossing his arms. He definitely was not happy. The students stayed quiet before Ashido spoke about the elephant in the room, "You two are married? AND expecting?!"
Aizawa answered for the two of them, "Yes."
Deku piped up, "I knew Saving Grace was married but on reports it never mentioned who. It was always reported..."
The boy started to ramble. Uraraka elbowed the boy, "Deku, you're rambling."
Katrina chuckled. She moved her mask slightly so they can hear her clearly, "We were good at hiding it. Also thank you for the flowers. I really do love them. It's a lot but it brightens the room."
A knock was heard on the door. Aizawa narrowed his eyes at the door. A certain blond's voice followed the person who was entering, "She needed to come in."
Aizawa looked at the clock seeing how it was time for his wife's new bags. The students shuffled out of the way. Aiko looked startled at the amount of people in the room, "Oh... I didn't know you were having visitors, Katrina... Nor I thought this many..."
Some of the students started to worry but realization dawned on Aiko. Aiko looked among the students, "Oh you're his kids, aren't you?"
Aizawa nearly scoffed. Katrina's hand missed her husband's pant leg as he moved out of the way. Katrina gave a light glare to her husband, "Oh stop. They would've find out sooner or later."
Aiko went to work on changing the bags. Mashirao Ojiro asked, "Why do you need to get blood transfusions? Are you sure you are okay?"
Aiko answered for the healing hero, "One of the twins has a complication. It's called partial placental separation. It means the very thing that helps grow the baby and give them oxygen is not working fully. The baby isn't getting what it needs. So blood transfusions help with it a bit."
She didn't take her eyes off of her duty to attach the bags to the drip. Katrina moved her oxygen mask, "Don't worry though. They're okay!"
The blue haired nurse frowned and tapped Katrina's fingers on her mask. She wagged her finger, "I've been lenient on you since you came here but you need to keep that on, missy! I'm not ready to go through another heart attack if you have another attack."
The mother-to-be grumbled sliding her hand off of her mask. Aizawa thanked the nurse, "Thank you."
Aiko gave a curt nod to the father-to-be before narrowing her eyes at the pregnant woman. Aiko grabbed the empty bags, "I'll be back early in the morning to help you get ready for surgery."
With that being said, the nurse left the room. Aizawa looked at his students, "I think it is time for you lot to go home."
Kirishima and Ashido stepped forward with high hopes, "Can we come visit after they arrive?"
Aizawa and Katrina answered with opposite answers. Aizawa frowned, "No. Now go home."
Some of the kids slumped their shoulders and started walking out of the room. Kirishima stayed behind for a moment, "I'm glad you're okay, Miss Katrina... I mean Mrs. Aizawa."
He smiled sheepishly at the mistake. Katrina chuckled, "Thank you, Kirishima-san."
Kirishima smiled big. Katrina felt a soft spot for the red head. It might be how helpful he had been with her and how nice he was. Aizawa pushed himself off of the wall, "I'll be back."
Katrina;s voice was muffled but he heard her, "Don't be too hard on them. They were worried."
Aizawa didn't answer his wife as he herded his students outside of the hospital with Mic. They were going to get an earful but he wasn't that hard on them... Just extra hard training when he comes back to school after tomorrow.
A/N: Holy smokes. This is a VERY VERY long chapter. I didn't expect it to be this long. I just kept writing cause I felt it couldn't end the way after each sentence I wrote. I hope this is okay! Let me know whatcha think and what genders the twins should be! Boy/boy, Girl/girl or boy/girl. Also I found shortness of breathing or difficulty of breathing can be a symptom of preeclampsia. I can't imagine what any of this would be like. Women who had dealt or are dealing with this are strong as hell. Well pregnant women are strong af anyways.
