[Stop, he wants to tell him, because his poor little heart can't understand what's happening. Is he being mocked? Yes, of course, he thinks at first, because that's the natural reaction. Aizawa isn't that popular (somewhat because of his bizarre quirk, somewhat because he doesn't know how to socialize, somewhat because he simply doesn't believe in not being blunt and harsh), and so what few flirtations he's gotten have been jokes and dares.
(Not all of them, actually, but he doesn't know that).
But Toshinori, while annoying and overbearing, doesn't seem the sort to be cruel. He's popular and loud and bright, but if he was malicious, he wouldn't serve as much of a symbol of peace. But that doesn't make sense, because if he follows that logic, then it means that Toshinori is being genuine as he looks him up and down and beams that way over at him.
And why would he do that?
Surely he has his pick of people who are like him. Even as Toshinori, a normal civilian, he must have people who trail after him. So why not pick one of them? Aizawa is . . . not exactly a great partner. He has one friend, and that friendship only works because Hizashi simply overrides his blunt irritability with his own forceful personality. He's rude and anti-social and, while not actually ugly, certainly doesn't put much effort into his appearance.
So he squints at him, trying to determine what's happening, and hates that there's a part of him that simply shivers and melts at that smile being aimed his way.]
I don't see why. You made enough of a spectacle of yourself even back then.
[Oh, very nice. Defensive sarcasm towards the man he has a crush on, that's a great way to go.]

. . . stop looking at me like that.
