Angst
Today class 1A was doing a swimming lesson. After the LOV attacked the class at the USJ, principle Nezu decided it was best for each class to have a swimming lesson a month to ensure that they can swim properly if they ever need to.
You, however, had way too many cuts and bruises on your body to wear a swimsuit without any questioning, so you went for the safest option by saying you were on your period. Aizawa did say you could sit and help while the rest of the class were swimming and doing laps.
But the reason that you had so many bruises on you was because you have a pair of very abusive parents.
There was your father who was a heavy drinker, and always had an aura of rage surrounding him. When he wasn't drinking his life away and shouting at you, he would beat you till you were near the state of fading in and out of consciousness.
Then there was your mother, who was more on the psychological side of abuse. She would torment you, shun your insecurities, make fun of you and would work you to the bone.
The thing about your parents were that they were smart. Your fathers quirk was abnormal intelligence and your mothers being the ability to heal any physical wound on ones body. So yir parents knew the right places to target without getting caught.
The abuse continued, and so did the excuse of your period. Till one day when the swimming lesson was at the beginning of the month instead of the end of the month. This was when Aizawa became suspicious at your period.
"Class you're going to have your swimming lesson today" a gruff-voiced Aizawa spoke.
"Why Sensei?" said none other that Denki Kaminari.
"Because the pool water is going to be replaced at the end of the month" Aizawa said with a sigh, "now go and get changed"
The whole class had now left to change except you. You were still seated in your seat.
"A-aizawa sensei" your voice spoke, ready to use your usual excuse.
"L/N, why are you still here?" he replied, "go and change"
"I was going to tell you I'm on my period right now so I can't" you say.
"When did your period start?" he says, this time a hint of confusion in his voice.
"Before we last did a swimming lesson" you say. SHIT
"And you're still on the same period?" he says, this time raising a brow.
"Yeah" you mumble.
Aizawa lets out a sigh before talking again.
"You can sit this lesson out, but you should get that checked out. Its not normal for a period to last that long" he says before leaving the classroom.
You let out a sigh of relief that he never asked any more questions. But you do need to find a better excuse, you had a feeling that he wasnt believing the period story anymore.
~~~
Everyone was in the pool swimming laps like usual whilst you were sitting on the bench watching them. Whilst they got a break (don't know how Aizawa let that happen) Jirou came up to you.
"Hey L/N, you feeling better?" she asks.
"Yeah im good" you say snapping out of your train of thoughts.
"You're stomach still hurt?"
"My stomach?" you say, unsure of why she would ask that then it clicked, "my stomach feels much better thanks"
"That's good. let me know if you need anything"
"Will do"
You could only pray she never heard yir little slip up.
However, unbeknownst to you, someone did hear your little slip up. And that someone happened to be none other that your homeroom teacher Aizawa. While you were oblivious to this, the man was eying down you suspiciously.
~~~
"L/N, I need to speak to you at the end of the day" Aizawa informs yu whilst everyone is in the changing rooms.
"Yes sensei" you say smiling at him, you dont know why he wanted to talk to you, but you hoped tou weren't in trouble, you have enough if that at home.
The day went by quickly and by the end of your last lesson you stayed behind to hear what Aizawa had to say.
After a few minutes of sitting in your sear and Aizawa marking papers you spoke up.
"You said you wanted to talk to me Aizawa?" you ask, internally pleading that you weren't going to be here for much longer.
"Why didn't you do swimming today?" he asks. You gulp, if he had found out the real reason why you might have to go to a foster home, and for what you've heard those arent a nice place to be. Or your parents could end up in jail. But you didn't think that he did figure it out, surely he would have straight out told him?
"Im on my period" you say, you can feel the nervousness running in your voice.
"Really?" you couldn't tell if he was questioning you or telling you. You dont reply, "do you want to explain what you were talking about with Jiroy then?"
SHIT. SHIT. SHIT. He hears you're slip up.
"Not really" you say.
You're met with silence.
"So whats the real reason that you didn't go swimming" he asks again.
"I told you already, I'm on my period" why are you still lying. You've already been caught.
"Maybe it wasnt about swimming, maybe it's about changing" FUUUUCCCCKKKK. He's good.
"I-I dont know what you're talking about" fucking voice cracks.
"You dont sound very trust worthy"
This man is investigating you like his life depended on it.
"I need to go" you say hurriedly as you male your way to the door.
"Stay here"
You ignore him.
He then uses his scarf to close the door, making you flinch. He knows for a fact that any normal oerson wouldn't flinch over a door being closed.
"Why did you flinch?"
"I need to go" Aizwaw was well awre that you were avoiding the question
"Is there something you want to tell me?"
"No, now l need to go before he-" you cut yourself off. You've said too much and there is no way that he didnt hear that.
"Before who?"
"Noone, now let me go please" you ask, more of a beg.
"Not till you tell me who you were talking about just now"
"My parents, now can I please go?" by now your eyes are welling up.
"What will happen?" he asks. This time his tone is much softer than before.
"I'll get into trouble, now can i please go, please?" by now tears are pouring down your redened face.
"What will the do to you?"
"My dad will hit me and my mum will shout at me for ages, now can i please go?" when yu turn to face him you see that he is actually beside you.
"I'm not letting you go back to that "
"Then where will i go?"
"You can stay with me till l find you a suitable home to stsy in"
"Really!!??" you say.
"Yeah"
"Thank you so so so so sooo much!" you say as you hug him. You dont know what made you do it, excitement, relief, it could be thst you just needed one, you didnt know. But it was nice, even though it was a one sided hug.
"Now is there anyhing else i need to know before i report this to the police"
"yeah" you mumble before telling him all about the horrible things your father did to you and the terrible things your mother said to you. To say Aizawa was surprised was an understatement, noone should have to endure that, especially from sucha toung age.
~~~
You were in Aizawa's car as he drove to his appartment. It was a silent ride till you reached the door, he spoke up.
"l also have a roommate" he says befor opening the door.
"SHOTAAAA, YOU'RE BACK. WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?" present mic says before walking towards the door.
"Hi"
