By time Marie was done getting her to do list done with running some of the beginning of the year aid errands she was running late for Aizawa Sensei's class. And although she knew she was running late, a glance at her watch still told her that she was going to be there before Aizawa himself.
What she wasn't expecting was for Shinso Hitoshi to be waiting for her outside the classroom door. She was prepared to not have to speak to him for at least till the end of the class. He clearly had other plans though.
Marie was fairly sure she knew what the topic of conversation was going to be about. And what was she supposed to tell him? That her inner feline has the hot for him?
Oh No. She admitted it in her head. That wasn't supposed to happen.
"I wanted to say sorry about what happened yesterday." Shinsoi's words rolled out of his mouth in a smooth and sincere way. Marie's feline shaped glasses heard the words and made her hairs stand up in anticipation. Making Marie blush at the excitement.
The blushed cheeks and lidded eyes made Marie look smaller in Hitoshii's eyes. He had just apologized but couldn't help but smirk at being proud of having caused another reaction from the girl.
"When you're done flirting, I'll start class." Both Shinso and Marie looked up and saw Aizawa standing there. Shinso noticed that his father was looking straight at him as he said those words.
Between the lines Hitoshi felt that the words held more value than they did with other students. He just wasn't sure just yet if it was because of their father/son relationship, he looked over at the still blushing feline, or if it had anything to do with Marie.
He quirks his eyebrow at his father as if to ask, 'Why the double meaning?'
He only receives one in return, 'Later'. Hitoshi ALWAYS got the 'later' look. The look that meant he would have to bring it up because Aizawa was never going to do it himself.
Marie stood there embarrassed at being caught. He had said flirting. Was her feline demeanor that obvious? And it was in front of Aizawa Sensei too.
While sitting at her desk she was very aware of how close the desks seemed to be. So she made sure to keep her eyes in the front of the classroom. She watched Aizawa as he spoke but the words didn't make it to her ears as she only noticed the way his lips moved. His hair was all over the place and she vaguely heard that he was talking about the results of the heroes fitness tests.
Then there it was, while scanning the room she made direct eye contact with him. His eyes were so incredibly dark and they had the same type of depth to them as Shinsos. She looked down at her paper to make it seem that she wasn't staring at him. She didn't want it to seem like she was also pining for the teacher.
Though she wasn't pining for Shinso either. Even though he did also have dark eyes that made her want to question his thoughts. The messy hair that her hands twitched at feeling.
Just a touch. Like yesterday.
Hitoshi couldn't not see the tail swinging out of the corner of his eye. Taking a peek he could see that she was blushing and looking at her work versus paying attention. Her tinted cheeks were nice and he wanted to push the limit a bit.
He moved his foot over just enough so that the side of his sole was touching hers. This causes her to flinch. Maybe he was being cruel but upon moving his foot away he'd never forget the next feeling.
Marie's body was clearly acting on its own. His foot touching her could have been an accident but her inner cat was saying no to any withdrawal.
Before his leg could move too far her tail wrapped around his calf. Both Hitoshi and Marie jump out of their seats causing a clatter.
Aizawa stops speaking and watches the scene. His son and the feline are standing side by side. Faces blushed and gawking at one another. The soft furred tail of the petite girl is wrapped around Shinso's calf. The wrap was clearly in a way that is of possession and Aizawa can't help but imagine wrapping the tail in his hand and having her in submission.
"Marie. Hitoshi. I suggest you stop interrupting my class with your teenage flirting. If this is going to be an issue, Maire. You'll have to sit next to me like the corruptive aid that you are." He knows he worded his words so that they would inflict. If it was anyone else he would have just told them to sit down. But he couldn't help but get bothered by the two.
"Told you she likes them dark and brooding." A new student, Gina?, spoke up with a giggle. He really didn't care much for the pettiness of the students. But those words and who they were directed at made a difference.
He scanned Marie's reaction and looked from Shinso, me and back at the girl who spoke. The light blush from the feline was a full blown crimson. Her tail detangled from the boy and that somehow gave Aizawa a releaf.
"Everyone quiet and have a seat." He says and before he can have his own seat he hears her voice.
"May I be excused to the clinic?" Her voice was quiet and he could hear the embarrassment. He'd love to have her just sit here and bathe in it.
But instead he just waved his hand in a gesture for her to leave.

Marie sat at the desk in her room. Looking out the window at the setting sun. It was incredibly frustrating to her to have realized that she had an undeniable attraction to both Shinso and her teacher.
It took her a moment to admit it to herself. It was honestly easier to admit a crush on an unattainable teacher then it was a student. A student that she was going to have to work with a lot.
The whole situation frustrated Marie so much. She needed to focus on her work. On school. On all of the things that were going to ensure her the future that she wanted.
She wasn't going to let her inner cat get in the way. So she turned to her computer and did what she did best.
She did research and studied. She read advice columns and research papers all on how to help feline quirk holders to help with different instincts.
The advice definitely ranged but mostly they all advised that she feed the beast.
Different methods were mentioned. From just giving in to finding an outlet that best fed your 'inner kitty cat'.
Essentially most of the articles pointed in the direction of finding a partner for just sex or to learn how to have a good time with yourself.
She wasn't going to be looking for a partner so she may as well please herself.
The thought alone brought a blush to Marie's face.
Marie went to lay in her bed for the night. Stared up at the ceiling she told herself that she can take care of herself.
She laid there in the dark for a moment.
Then she turned to her side.
Starting tomorrow I'll learn to please myself.
