The shrill sound of the alarm blared from the table beside him, causing a yawn to escape from his mouth as he sat up begrudgingly and clicked STOP on his lockscreen.
Aizawa Shota was NOT a morning person, but the sweet and earthy smell of the coffee brewing from the kitchen downstairs caught his attention and coaxed him from under the sheets.
His tired eyes glanced at his phone screen to check the time. 6:15 am. He stumbled down the stairs, careful to avoid the slightly creaky landing step that would trigger your sleeping child to wake up.
"Good morning, Sho." You smiled, sliding the cup of coffee carefully across the island counter to his waiting hands.
"Morning, Love." He replied back, pressing a kiss to your cheeks and then your lips before drinking some of the hot coffee that you had poured in his favorite cup.
He had refused to use any other cup since your son, Sakai, had made it for him for Christmas a year ago. It was a messily decorated blue cup with paint splatters of red, orange, black, and white; different random shapes painted on over it and finished off with a few lines and splatters of glittery silver paint. Your son was still learning about patience and had grabbed the mug before it was done drying, leaving his tiny handprint on the side, but Shota loved it even more.
You both didn't need to get up as early as you did, but you both enjoyed the quiet time that the morning gave. You both stood at the large window in your kitchen above the empty sink, watching the wind blow the leaves and flower petals around, Shota's hand around your waist.
"Is your presentation today?" He asked you after a period of silence.
"Yeah, I think it'll go well..." You replied. "Well...I hope so." You laughed lightly.
"You're the smartest person I know." He stated almost immediately afterwards. "You have absolutely nothing to worry about." He kissed your cheek again.
"What are you going to do with your students today?" You asked, setting your coffee cup back down on the counter as he did too.
"Another quirk assessment." He stated after thinking about it. "I want them to see for themselves how far they've come since the beginning of the year."
"You're a good teacher, Sho." You smiled at him softly, causing him to smile at your compliment.
"I'm not the only one who thinks so. Kai thinks so too. He kept running around the house yesterday saying, 'I'm gonna be just like Daddy!'"
Shota couldn't help the wide smile that appeared on his face before he glanced at the time again. It was already time for him to start getting ready.
The two of you had already discussed Shota taking Sakai to UA with him that day, though you had yet to tell your son. You knew that if you had told him the night before he would have barely slept due to all the excitement.
Shota walked back up the stairs after washing his mug and setting it to the side to dry, doing yours also. He went to his son's door, pushing it open and carefully walking over to his son's bed, being careful to avoid the few toys that laid in the dark.
"Good morning Kai." He said softly, smoothing his son's dark hair. He had gotten his hair color from Shota, though the hair texture was the same as yours.
His eyes opened before he sat up and wrapped his small arms around his father. His eyes were the same color as yours, though the shape was uncannily Shota's. He couldn't help but smile every time he looked at Sakai, seeing the perfect mix of each of you in him.
"Do you want to go to work with me today Kai?" He asked as the three year old pulled away his wide excited eyes locking with his father's as he nodded vigorously.
"YES!" He said as he jumped out of Shota's arms and ran towards his closet.
"Do you need help picking out what you're gonna wear while Daddy gets dressed?" You questioned, standing in the doorway.
Sakai shook his head no quickly, already knowing exactly what he wanted to wear. He grabbed his father's hand dragging him towards the door before pushing him out and closing it, telling his parents that it was going to be a surprise and he was a big boy that didn't need any help.
You simply smiled at each other before heading to get ready yourself.
A few moments later Sakai was ready, Shota's eyes widening slightly before a large smile appeared on his face. Sakai had chosen to wear black jeans and a black long sleeve shirt, wearing capture tape in the same way his father did.
"(y/n)!" Shota called for you as you appeared, a smile instantly appearing on your face at your son in his father's arms, his little outfit an obvious tribute to his all time favorite hero.
"Love you two! Be safe!" You called, kissing your husband goodbye before kissing your son's head. They waved before heading off to UA.
Shota stopped in the teacher's lounge first, saying hello to the few teachers there before grabbing a few snacks and putting them into his son's bright yellow backpack, continuing down the hall and to class 1-A.
"Aizawa-Sensei!" Tenya Iida said as Shota entered the room. He was one of the first students there, early every day. Bakugou Katsuki and Todoroki Shoto were there too, but they remained quiet.
Shota nodded in response before leading his son over to sit in the desk chair, the three year old taking the small yellow coat off and putting it behind him on the chair like the two of you had taught him to do.
The rest of the students arrived pretty quickly after that, everyone taking their seats and quieting down. Mina and Momo smiled at the little boy who was looking around the room in awe, he waved back at them causing them both to coo.
"Before we begin, you may have noticed that-"
"Hi!" Sakai said excitedly interrupting his father as he waved at everyone.
Shota smiled before turning to his son. "Do you want to introduce yourself?" He asked him as Sakai looked slightly unsure before nodding.
"I'm Aizawa Sakai. I'm 3!" He said, holding up the number on his hand before hiding behind his father's leg.
"You have a kid?!" Kaminari asked after everyone awwed at the little boy. Shota nodded simply, as if he didn't just reveal something quite major.
"Why haven't you brought him before?" Hagakure asked him.
"He had off from school today and he thinks you're all very cool." Shota answered simply.
"Who's your favorite?" Kaminari questioned your son before Bakugou chimed in with an "It's definitely me."
"Mido-rya, Baku-o and Todo-ki are the coolest!" He said shyly, butchering the names slightly but that didn't stop the three boys from smiling proudly, Midoriya almost passing out due to happiness and awe.
"M-me? Wow! T-thanks!" Midoriya managed to get out, clutching his hand to his chest as he bowed in his seat a few times, willing himself not to cry.
"What are we doing today Sensei?" Iida questioned as everyone quieted again.
"You'll be having a quirk assessment test." The older Aizawa answered simply, ignoring almost everyone's protests.
