Author's Notes
This started out as a simple fanfic to write to pass the time then turned into this. Can't really say if I'm proud of this or not. I tried to make the conversations as realistic as possible, but that just made them confusing. I might add another chapter in the future but it depends on if people really want a continuation.
I did some research when I first wrote this and found out that when BNHA takes place isn't really confirmed, so I went with the theory that it takes place in 2185, meaning this fic begins in 2170. Other than the year I'm taking wild guesses about when the rest of the events took place.
Also, the dates aren't important at first, but you might want to pay attention to them to avoid confusion.

Hey! I'm Yamada Hizashi! I'd like to welcome you to class 1A! You were really good in the Sports Festival so it's not a surprise that you were transferred into the hero course!
Shouta, 5:02
Ok.
How did you get this number?
Yamada, 5:02
That's not important!
Message me if you need anything!

Yamada, 3:47 pm
You did great during the hero training exercise! Who knew that my quirk could actually be useful in a rescue situation!
Shouta, 3:50
Me, obviously
Yamada, 3:51
Anyway, thanks for the tips you gave me! I thought I'd have to be a combat specific hero, but it's nice to know my voice is useful for something besides shattering eardrums✧*｡٩(ˊωˋ*)و✧*｡
Shouta, 3:55
You don't need a quirk to rescue people
Yamada, 3:55
I guess so, but the more ways I can use my quirk the better¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Shouta, 3:56
Please stop sending those stupid emojis
Yamada, 3:56
I feel like I've been insulted (;ーー)
Shouta, 3:57
Good, because you have been

Yamada, 6:21
Are you at that new Udon restaurant in Musutafu right now?
Shouta, 6:23
Depends on why you're asking
Yamada, 6:23
I think I see you!
Shouta, 6:24
Then I'm definitely not in that restaurant right now
Yamada, 6:25
Too late! I know that's you!
Shouta sighed as he shut his phone off and laid his head on the table. He should've known that Yamada would've noticed him, though he was surprised it took him so long to notice. It took Yamada nearly thirty minutes to notice him sitting in the corner of the small udon restaurant. To be fair, Yamada was eating with two other of their classmates, but still, thirty minutes wasn't nearly fast enough for a hero student. A hero student should have better observational awareness than that.
He was surprised, though, when he heard multiple people walking towards his table. Shouta decided it was worth opening his eyes for a moment to see who was approaching, and surprise surprise, it was Yamada and his gang.
Yamada, for some reason, decided it was a good idea to sit across from Shouta in his booth. "Hey man! Good to see you! Why didn't you tell me you were here?"
Shouts sighed, they only spoke briefly to escoger in class and texted each other a few times and Yamada was already this clingy. "Maybe because you're not my guardian?"
"Ohhhh, I like you!" One of their classmates exclaimed. She moved from where she was previously standing at the end of the table and slid into the booth right next to Shouta with no regards for personal space. The other classmate shrugged at the first one's antics and sat down next to Yamada.
Sure. Go ahead and ruin all his hopes of eating some udon in peace.
"What's up?" Yamada asked.
"The roof," Shouta couldn't help but reply. He knew if he wanted friends he probably shouldn't talk the way he does, and he should treat the few people that seemed to actually like him well, but he couldn't pass up on the chance of making it hard on them. Even then, he didn't work his ass off to make it into the hero course just to make friends, no, he was in the class to be a hero.
"Ohhhh, he's got humor!" The lady scooted even closer to Shouta. Her leg was now brushing up against his and Shouta would really like to move away but was already out of room to escape.
Eventually, Yamada waived down a waiter to tell her that they'd be eating their food at the new table. They all talked to each other and it wasn't too bad. Shouta even learned the names of the two other classmates, Tensia Iida and Nemuri Kayama. He had no idea why this group of classmates decided to take such an interest in him, but it wasn't as much as a bad thing as he thought it was at first. When everything had died down and it was time to leave, Shouta left with two new numbers in his contact list.

YAMADA HIZASHI named the conversation "Oldies"
Shouta, 4:01 am
why
Hizashi, 4:01
BECAUSE WE'RE ALL OLD NOW
Shouta, 4:27
So instead of wishing me happy birthday like a normal person you called me old?
Nemuri, 4:30
Wait today's your birthday?
Shouta, 4:32
I'm going to choose to ignore that, despite ten years of "friendship" you just asked that question
Nemuri, 4:32
….sorry
Hizashi, 4:34
THIS IS NOT THE DIRECTION I WANTED THIS CONVERSATION TO GO
Shouta, 4:40
Then why did you decide to change the group chat name at four in the morning?
Hizashi, 4:41
BECAUSE WE'RE OLD
Shouta, 4:43
That makes me feel so much better
Hizashi, 4:43
WERE ALL OVER 25 THEREFORE WE ARE OLD
Tensei, 4:45
Let's wish Shouta a happy birthday sometime later today, maybe when it's an appropriate hour and Shouta is less irritable
Shouta, 4:46
Fuck you Tensei, I'm a delight
December 13, 2180
Tensei, 3:13 pm
Hey Shouta, do you mind picking Tenya up at his school for me? I was supposed to but High Jumper got injured and now I have to take over her patrol for her. Sorry for asking out of the blue.
Shouta, 3:15
It's fine, I'm free anyway
Thirty minutes later Aizawa found himself sitting outside Soumei Elementary School waiting for Tenya to come walking out the main gate. This wasn't the first time he had to pick Tenya up from school, but it was the first time in awhile. Tensei usually was the one to pick Tenya up when their parents were busy or out of town, but sometimes Tensei got caught up with something else and asked Shouta to help out since he was always free during the day time because all his hero work was during the night. It wasn't as complicated as it might sound.
Aizawa watched as the doors to the school opened and hoards of middle school children began flooding out, it'd be awhile before he would be able to spot Tenya. Did Tenya even know that he was picking him up. Shouta sighed as he pulled out his phone and leaned against the gate separating the prestigious school and the rest of the public. Nothing worth noting was going on, Nemuri and Hizashi were arguing over whether BLTs or baloney sandwiches were better, which was obvious, BLTs are superior. There was a fight going down in downtown Mustafa, but from the looks of it the heroes had it handled.
Shouta couldn't help but notice the odd stares he was getting, which he should've expected. He was dressed in all black with a scarf covering half his face and was waiting outside a middle school. Not exactly the most unsuspicious sight to see. Shouta noticed people starting to whisper to each other and point at him. If this kept going on, Tensei be damned, Shouta would just leave the school and not look back.
Luckily for Tenya, Shouta spotted him walking out the gates not too long later. "Tenya! Over here!" Shouta called out loud enough to be heard over the crowd.
Tenya looked around the crowd for a few seconds before spotting Shouta and visibly brightening up by the sight of him. Shouta felt his cold exterior melt a bit as he saw Tenya wave goodbye to his friends and run over to greet him. Shouta couldn't believe he was considering leaving Tenya on his own just because of a few stares. He could deal with them for a little while just to pick Tenya up from school.
Tenya approaches with a pep in his step and shouted (he was just a way too cute for his own good), "Hi Shouta!" As soon as he was an appropriate distance away.
"Hey Tenya. Your brother was busy so he sent me to pick you up," Shouta said kindly to the boy. He didn't smile, but the look he gave was the closest he would ever get to a smile.
"Ok! Where are we going," Now, awhile back Shouta dug himself into a hole. When Tenya was a lot younger Shouta would take him out to get ice cream or eat whenever he picked Tenya up from school. Now Tenya's older and he's used to getting something from Shouta every time he sees him. It wasn't too bad though. Shouta would never admit it, but it was heartwarming to see a kid get so excited to see him just because he did something special for the kid every once in awhile.
"I don't know, I was thinking maybe you could pick out where we go," Damn Shouta and his soft spot for Tenya. Whenever he wanted to say no to him he'd take one look at his pleading eyes and his plans would be thrown out the window. He would really have to work on his tendency to do that incase he ever taught Tenya at UA, but that was a thought for another day.
"Can we go get ice cream?" Of course the kid wanted ice cream. All kids want ice cream.
"Sure, I have just the place in mind." Shouta said as he started walking down the street, glancing behind him to make sure the kid was following.
"Yes! Thank you Mr. Shouta!" Huh. That was new. Tenya had never called him Mr. Shouta before, it made him feel old. But then again, that may just be because Hizashi refuses to call themselves anything but old. They weren't old, and wouldn't be for a long time, but Shouta can still remember being fifteen and holding a one year old Tenya I'm his arms. Sure, he wasn't old, but he certainly did feel like he was young anymore.
"Hey, kid," Shouta didn't even know why he spoke, but the words just came out without any thought beforehand, "You don't have to call me Mr. Shouta. I've known you for nearly as long as you've been alive."
There's that old feeling again.
Tenya seemed to think over what Shouta had just said to him for a few moments, then nodded to himself as if some problem in his head had just been solved. Kids. You can never understand what's going on inside their heads.
"C'mon, this is the ice cream place." Shouta said as he opened the door for Tenya and let him in.
Once they had their ice cream in hand and had settled down into a booth the lapsed into a comfortable silence eating their ice cream in peace. Until, of course, Tenya broke it.
"Hey, um…." Tenya started but trailed off. Shouta gave him a prodding look that urged him to continue, "well, you're a hero like my brother, right?" He continued at Shouta's nod, "well, umm… we were talking about heroes a few days ago in class, and I started talking about how my brother was a hero and his friends were heroes too." Shouta had to fight himself internally to it groan out loud. This conversation did not sound like it was going in a good direction. Tensei was a better person to have this kind of conversation with, "I told them all about Tensei and Hizashi and Nemuri and… you, but they didn't know who you were," Oh. This was not going the direction he thought it was. That's a relief, "They knew all about Ingenium and Present Mic, some knew about Midnight but not as many, they just smiled and laughed at each other when I asked if they knew her, but anyway, none of them knew who you were, even though your awesome and Tensei says you have a really cool quirk!" This definitely didn't go the way he was expecting it to, but maybe it was better that Shouta was explaining this instead of Tensei.
"Well that's kind of a long story. But first, Tenya, do you know what my quirk is?" Tenya shook his head no and Shouta continued, "My quirk is called Erasure, it means that I can erase other people's quirk. It's not flashy like your's, your brother's, or Hizashi's quirk, but it means that I can still save people with it by taking away the villains advantage." Tenya looked absolutely fascinated at all the information Shouta was feeding him and Shouta couldn't help but feel a little bit of pride well up inside him at the look, "But, there's a problem with having a quirk like mine. If everyone knows what my quirk is, then they can take measures to prevent their advantage from being taken away. Do you understand?" Shouta continued at Tenya's nod, "So in order to stay useful as a hero I have to make sure no one knows my quirk. And how do I do that? By becoming an underground hero."
"Wow…. sounds cool…. what's that?" Tenya asked and Shouta couldn't help but chuckle at his question. For being raised in a hero family, Tenya didn't know much about heroes.
"It means that I'm not ranked like normal heroes do, and I try to avoid attention of the media at all costs. That's why your classmates didn't know existed, because the media doesn't know I exist, and that means citizens don't know either."
"Oh… ok," Tenya said happily and continued to eat his ice cream, until he stopped again only a few moments later, "Y'know, you should be a teacher." Tenya said innocently.
Shouta smirked as he thought of a response and leaned across the table in a conspiratory manner. "Hey, do you want to hear a secret?" Shouta whispered.
Tenya noticed the change in atmosphere and leaned closer to Shouta in order to hear him, "Ya," Tenya whispered back.
"Ok, but you have to promise not to tell anyone, not even your brother." Aizawa let a mischievous smile slip onto his face. This boring day just got a lot more interesting.
Tenya's face lit up with the prospect of being told valuable top secret information, "I promise!" He whispered loudly.
"Ok…" Shouta paused for dramatic effect. He'd seen Hizashi and Nemuri do it enough to pick up on the effectiveness of it. Sure enough, Tenya was practically squirming in his seat in anticipation of the secret, "I'm already a teacher, have you ever heard of U.A.?"
Tenya shot up in his seat in excitement, "Yes!" He practically yelled. Realizing what he'd just done, he looked around apologetically and leaned back into their previous position, "Yes, that's where my brother went to be a hero and that's where I'm going to go to be a hero!" he whispered excitedly.
"Well, I teach there."
This time Tenya didn't lose his composure, but the excitement he already had seemed to increase tenfold once he heard Shouta's words, "Yay!" He whispered, "Maybe you'll teach me when I go to UA!"
"Maybe, but first you have to get into UA, and then there's only a fifty fifty chance that you'll be in my class," Tenya seemed to deflate a little at Shouta's words, but that didn't get rid of the spark in his eyes, "But remember, Tensei can't know anything about me teaching at UA, okay?" Tenya nodded his head quickly and dove right back into his ice cream, which was more a milkshake by now, with a large smile on his face.

Shouta, 8:28
It's not lying if I never tell you anything about it
Hizashi, 8:28
Okay maybe you're right but I think you broke some bro codes

ANYWAY, I was having dinner with my family, and I brought up that you have apparently been teaching at UA and didn't tell anyone
I think you know my brothers reaction to my statement

He said that you told him about it last year after you picked him up from school

YOU TOLD A LITTLE KID THAT YOU WORKED AT UA BUT NOT US!?

It can't cross a road, it's a shark, and don't text me. We both should be teaching right now
Hizashi, 2:20
Wrong! To get to the other tide!
Why did the dodo cross the road?
Shouta, 2:23
I swear if you keep messaging me right now I will march down to your classroom and tackle you
Hizashi, 2:24
(As if you have the energy or the will to come down here.)
It didn't, it got hit by a car andsnnsndndnnzk
Hizashi, 2:53
Did you seriously have to come down and tackle me? Why can't you say you'll do something and be joking for once? I think you scarred my students for life!
Shouta, 2:55
Yes. I always keep my word. If they are scarred for life by something as simple as someone barging into their classroom and tackling their teacher mid class then they shouldn't be heroes. Do I need to remind you why you got tackled in the first place?
Hizashi, 2:55
Maybe?
Shouta, 2:57
Because you were texting me while I was teaching class and what are you doing now? Texting me while I teach a class. Do I need to come down there and embarrass you in front of your students again?

Thirty minutes ago Shouta received a letter containing roster of who would be in his class.
It was not sitting unopened on his desk because he was nervous about opening it.
It was not sitting unopened on his desk because he was afraid the two troublemakers from the same middle school were in his class.
It was not sitting unopened on his desk because he was nervous about whether or not Tenya was in his class.
It was sitting unopened on his desk because Shouta had other thing to do, like tidying up the classroom and planning for the upcoming year.
Okay, he was definitely procrastinating, it's not like he could deny it.
