What if I'm him?

Chapter Twenty-Two

She smiled, "Of course, honey."

There was a small repetitive noise that sounded, the heroes and bodyguard becoming alert. Mt. Lady turned and lifted her arm in protection of Katsuki.

Miriko sighed, loudly, "Fucking hell." She lifted her wrist and pushed back the glove, revealing what looked to be a metal bracelet that flashed red light. "That's me, sorry. Principle, you mind?" She pointed to the window.

"Not at all!"

Miriko tugged open the windows, climbing on to the window sill and turning around, facing the inside of the office, but poking her head outside. "I'll be quick. See ya!" She pushed herself out of the window, letting gravity pull her down.

"Well, then. As you can see, their shifts will be based on who is available, but not to worry, there will always be at least one hero with Katsuki."

Masaru furrowed his eyebrows.

"Or two, if he's with Aizawa."

Mr. Aizawa stood and stepped out of the office, followed by Fat Gum, the bodyguard, Masaru and Katsuki, and lastly, Mt. Lady. Mr. Aizawa led them back down the elevator and through many hallways until they arrived at a classroom. Mr. Aizawa slid open the door, and in the same order, they walked in. The classroom was entirely empty, except for one seat.

"Bakugo!"

Katsuki smiled, "Kaminari."

Denki stood from the desk and walked over to the last column of seats in the second row, near the window, "This is your seat."

Katsuki made his way to the desk and greeted Denki once more. Denki ushered him to sit at the desk, helping him lean his crutches against the window. Denki went to the desk in front of Katsuki and pulled out the chair, sitting on it backwards, pushing the chair as close to the front of Katsuki's desk as possible.

Masaru bent down at Katsuki, "I'm going to be leaving now. I will pick you when school is over, okay?"

Katsuki nodded.

"If you need anything, call me. I know the phone isn't great, but I have spoken to the principal and you can have your phone on you. If you need anything, anything at all, just call me, okay?"

Katsuki nodded again.

"Okay," Masaru stood, patting Katsuki's head. "I'll be back to pick you up. Bye, Katuski, I love you. Goodbye, Denki. Thank you for being here."

"Of course, sir!" He beamed.

Before Masaru and the bodyguard walked out the door, he paused before Mt. Lady, "I hope you keep him safe."

"I will, sir."

Denki and Katsuki quickly fell into conversation, Denki speaking more, as always. The two heroes stood at different positions in the room. Fat Gum stood near the doorway while Mt. Lady positioned herself in front of the desk Denki took the chair from.

"Sorry to interrupt," Mr. Aizawa said, standing before them. "This is all the homework you missed," he dropped a stack of papers on the desk, "Give them to me when you're done."

Katsuki looked down at the stack of papers, Denki grumbling a few phrases of disbelief. The two boys briefly made eye contact and then Katsuki met Mr. Aizawa's gaze, "Yes, sir."

"You really don't remember?"

Katsuki shook his head, "No, sir."

"Huh," Mr. Aizawa clicked his tongue. He shrugged, "Whatever," and walked to the large desk in the front of the class.
