Summary: Tododeku drabbles based on the prompt series: The way you said "I Love You"
A/N: So, this series will be my first contribution to the BNHA / Tododeku fandom. Been meaning to write something but didn't know what, and since I have this list of prompts I will use them for BNHA exclusively. This series will be a bunch of small one shot drabbles, always check the warnings to avoid spoilers or triggers. Leave Kudos/Likes and Follow/Subscribe and I would enjoy some constructive criticism.
Warnings: spoilers of chapter 95
As a Hello
It was a long day at work and Todoroki Shouto hasn't seen Midoriya Izuku in almost a week, especially since their schedules clash with each other this past month. Both were so busy that they barely text each other, let alone talk over the phone. He wonders why was it that working for different hero agencies sounded like a good idea back then, maybe because they wanted to share their stories once they got back home, maybe they didn't want to get distracted while on the job even though they did make a good team.
Groaning in exhaustion, Todoroki made it up to the door of their shared apartment, it wasn't luxurious or big and fancy, it didn't scream 'Heroes live here', instead it was a small three-bedroom apartment (one was turned into a small office room), with one shared bathroom, a small kitchen and a small area that could pass as a living room, in an old neighborhood. They've been living together since they graduated from U.A, as Endeavor gave his 'son' an ultimatum, well it wasn't much of one as it was either Todoroki worked for him or lived in the streets and without any money.
Thinking of how almost everyone and their grandmother knew that something was going on between the two rising heroes before Endeavor made him chuckle. For being the No. 1 hero, Endeavor sure didn't notice the motives and reasons why he hangs out with All Might's disciple. Shaking his head, Todoroki pulled out his key to unlock the door, only to find it unlocked, making him alert and a bit on edge, it was enough that he spent the entire night chasing a villain and having to work alongside Endeavor, now he had to deal with a possible intruder since Midoriya's shift started an hour ago, and the green hero always locks the door behind him.
Slowly making his way inside without creating any sound, frost begins to form by his shoes, ready to freeze the intruder, "Izuku I'm home" he shouts. There was a crashing noise from the kitchen, perhaps a couple of broken plates which will have to be replaced. The half cold half hot hero runs towards the intruder only to be slammed against something, with a pair of arms enveloped around him, lips smashed against his.
He knows who they belong to, a warmness that he cherishes very much, one that he would sacrifice everything for. "Mhhh" he hums as they both crash down to the floor, his arms holding his attacker by the waist, "Izuku" he smiles as the other pulls away. Noticing tears brimming in the other's eyes, "I Love you, Shoucchan" Midoriya cries as he buries his face in Shouto's neck, leaving the dual quirked hero to run his hands through a mess of green hair.
"Hello to you too love" he chuckles as they both sit up straight, Midoriya no longer crying, "I thought you had work today? Did something happen?"
"well I got the day off" Midoriya answers sheepishly as his eyes dart everywhere but Shouto, allowing the fire 'n Ice hero to notice the bandages and bruises on Izuku's body. "Izuku" he asks in a firm and final voice making Midoriya jump.
"long story short, I ran into a villain yesterday and he gave us a bit trouble, his quirk was creating holograms and while I was chasing him he lead me to an alley and created one of you slumped on the floor dead and for a second I thought it was real because I didn't know if you came home the night before so I panicked and ran towards the projection thinking it was you and he used that to attack me turns out a few of his friends were waiting so it was totally an ambush and I fell into their traps but it's all okay because he was an idiot and missed one detail so it wasn't like I was completely fooled but I used that opportunity and faked being fooled and took them all out but there were maybe ten of them and I wasn't at the top shape so I got hit a few times but now it's all right I went to the hospital and got patched up and told that I can take the day off since I looked like I need it and the most important thing is that I love you"
Todoroki looked at Midoriya with his trademark deadpan expression, "okay I barely understood anything since you were muttering very fast but in any case, I love you too, and glad you were okay"
"so how was your day?" Izuku sighed in relief as his boyfriend did look that worried but he was glad about the concern though.
"well for starters this villain gave us a wild goose chase and I had to work with Endeavor all night, so that sums up how shitty my night was" Shouto explained as he took Izuku's hand and lead him to the couch of their living room. Knowing that no matter how crappy his day was, he was glad that he has a home to return to, one filled with warmth and love. Maybe they don't live in a big apartment and they don't have that much money since they are still young, but there is nothing in the world that they would trade for that can replace the feeling of security as they laid on the couch in each other's arms.
