TODOROKI
"Endeavor," says All Might. I look at him in his real body, his real form. I would have never thought he was so frail. He is so skinny, hunching over like an elderly almost. Perfect Disguise. We are sitting in my father's office. My father is smirking liking the idea that All Might has come to him.
"All Might," he replies. "I'm sorry your career has come to end." My dad is actually sorry, sorry he didn't beat All Might at his best. Now I can't even beat him because he is no longer a hero. All Might will always be a hero in my eyes. His skills and power were on a whole different league compared to everyone else.
"Thank you," he replies. "I came here to inform you that we're making some changes at U.A."
"Oh?" questions my father.
"U.A. greatly apologizes for putting your son in danger," he replies. "To ensure the students are getting the best training possible we are turning U.A. into a boarding school. We would like the students to live on campus."
"You almost got my son killed twice under your watch," states dad. "What makes you think this campus is going to make a difference?"
"They will be surrounded by the best," replies All Might.
"You were the best and that didn't do shit for my kid," says dad sternly. He is not really concerned about me but enjoying the fact that All Might failed to protect the students from being attacked by his villains. All Might bows.
"I sincerely apologize," he replies. "Please allow Todoroki Shouto to continue to be in our care. We will do our best to ensure he is safe." The room is quiet for a moment. I shift my eyes to my father as he actually smiles.
"My son has been doing fine on his own," he replies. "Sure, he can stay at U.A." I'm actually relieved. Not only do I get to continue to go to U.A. I will be living away from my father. I couldn't be happier. All Might looks up.
"Thank you," All Might replies with a small smile. "Todoroki has a lot of potential but I am sure you know that."
"Of course, I do and that is no thanks to me," he replies. "My son has a tight training schedule. Will you all be able to keep up with that?" All Might looks puzzled all but for a second.
"Of course," he replies. "The campus will have a gym and training quarters for the students to use on their own as they would like."
"Excellent," replies my father smiling.
"It will be ready in time for the upcoming school year," he explains. "Move in date is set for August 22nd with the first day of school starting the following Monday. We want the students to get settled into their dorms before starting."
"How kind of you all," he replies. "Anything else? I have important matters to tend to."
"Not at the moment," says All Might standing up. "Todoroki, I look forward to seeing you this upcoming school year." I nod my head agreeing with him. I'm not sure what he can really help me with but I'm looking forward to it. Any time away from this house is good. My phone rings and I see Kirishima is calling me. My dad is walking All Might to the front door. I take this time to dip into my room.
"Hello," I greet.
"Todoroki," says Kirishima. "A few of us are going to the mall to do some shopping. You want to come with?"
"No," I reply not having to think about it. The mall is not my thing. I want nothing to do with it.
"You're just as bad as Bakugou," says Kirishima. "I couldn't get him to come either." I roll my eyes not liking that he is comparing me to fucking Bakugou.
"Whatever, I have to go," I reply.
"Be that way," says Kirishima. "Later." He ends the call and I see a text from Midoriya. I small smile appears on my face. Midoriya Izuku is my boyfriend. I would have never thought the day I saved his life I would need him as much as he needs me. He is still really emotional about All Might. I feel like there is a deep connection with them. He said he is not his son so I don't know what that connection is but I'm dying to know. I hear my room door open. I turn around seeing my father.
"You know I had a good mind to not let you live on campus," he states.
"I know," I replied. "Imagine how much training I can get done."
"I'm not worried about that but the quality of training," he says sternly.
"I will be fine," I reply. "I'm 15 for god sake."
"You don't know shit," hisses my dad. "Just because you survived some real villains and saved a boy doesn't mean you know everything."
"I didn't say I did," I reply. My father walks over smacking me hard. I'm lucky I didn't bite my tongue in the process.
"Just because you grew a pair of balls doesn't mean you can talk to me any kind of way!" he shouts.
"I've always had balls," I snort looking down before meeting his stare. My father sneers at me as he gets in my face.
"Who is it?" he asks.
"Who?" I ask looking at him like he is crazy. I think for a change he might have finally lost it. He hits me again knocking the wind out of me. That slap actually hurt. I have to focus hard to keep my head from spinning. My eyes actual water from the impact of his hit.
"Don't think I don't know," he growls. "You like someone. Might be dating them for all I know." I keep my face still. How could he possibly know? Midoriya and I have only been dating 2 weeks. "You think because you got some girl you are a man now. I don't think so!" I don't say anything, it is best not to say anything. I hear my dad snort. "Listen here, you better do good at U.A. and come out number 1. You will not make me look bad. Don't think for a second because All Might isn't around you get a break." I just continue to look down wishing I could beat his ass right now. I'm so sick of this shit. "Stay in your lane." My dad finally leaves my room and I gasp feeling the weight of his hits. I run into the bathroom looking at myself in the mirror.
"Shit…." I hiss as my cheek begins to swell. I decide to get some ice glad that he didn't leave a bruise. I create some ice cubs putting them into a wash cloth. I hold the ice cloth to my cheek. I can't help but wonder what really gave me away. If my dad figured it out, what about my classmates? I head over to my phone remembering Midoriya had text me. I grab my phone from my bed seeing new messages.
Midoriya: Hey I know you aren't coming to the mall. I will get you something nice, miss you.
I smile. I love him, he is so thoughtful.
Kirishima: Some shit went down
Kirishima: One of the villains cornered Midoriya!
"What!" I exclaim. I was only away from my phone but for a few minutes. What the hell happened!
Kirishima: He is okay. We had no idea as we went our separate ways. He is talking to the pros right now. This is getting out of hand man. He told me to text you so you know what is going on.
Todoroki: Where is he?
Kirishima: He is almost done being questioned. His dad is coming to get him though
"Shit…, " I mutter running to grab my shoes from the closet. I don't care it if I can only see him for a few minutes but I need to see him. I grab my house keys from my nightstand running out of my room. No point in telling my dad I'm even leaving. He wouldn't want me to go anyway and I'm going no matter what. I put my shoes on running out the door catching a cab to the mall. It takes me 15 minutes to get there and police are everywhere. You would have thought they said it was a bomb inside the mall. I look around once out of the cab spotting Uraraka. As short as she is I can always spot her in a crowd. I run over with Asui spotting me first. She looks surprised to me.
"Todoroki!" exclaims Asui. "What are you doing here?"
"I heard about the villain," I reply. "What happened? Is Midoriya okay?"
"Midoriya is fine," says Uraraka. "He is pretty shaken though." I look around finally spotting him with his dad.
"Izuku!" I shout. I run over to him as he runs meeting me halfway. He throws his body into my arms. The look on his father face doesn't go missed by me. I ignore him just glad to see that Midoriya is okay. Midoriya buries his face into my chest. I know he is glad to have me here as his hands hold on tight.
"Shouto….." he says into my chest before pulling away. He glances up at me putting on his brave face. "I'm fine, I'm okay."
"I know you are," I replied staring down at him trying to reel in my emotions. "I wish I was here….."
"Izuku, we need to go now," says his father.
"Dad," he replies turning to look at him. "I…I want to talk to Shouto."
"You can talk to him later," he replies. "Your mom wants to see you." I can understand his parents wanting to get him away from this mess. Midoriya grabs my hand causing my heart to melt. He makes eye contact with me. I see that green hair kid that looked scared and sad before he decided to jump.
"Hey," I say softly tugging his hand that is holding mine. Those green eyes trust me so much. "We can talk on the phone. I know you have more you want to say." Midoriya nods his head yes.
"But you drove all the way here…." he states sadly.
"I technically can't drive yet," I reply. "I will be next year though, hopefully under different circumstances." Midoriya chuckles as his dad clears his throat. I dislike that he is cutting in our time. We are almost done here. Can't he see that I care about Midoriya, I'm worried. Although Midoriya is fine I know him. I also want details on what happened. Do I want to know why the villains keep coming to him? Midoriya eyes glaze over a little as he leans up close to me.
"Shouto….." he whispers. I can see his eyes are pleading. He wants me to kiss him. I lean down closing the gap between us kissing Midoriya gently. It was suppose to be just a little peck but I guess he felt the need to give me more. Midoriya deepens the kiss slightly by moving his lips with a quiet sigh. Everything disappears for a minute, all but a minute. I open my eyes when his father is dragging him out of my hold. "Dad get off of me! Please stop!" I stare ahead in shock because I didn't fully think this through. Shit. I look around seeing some of my classmates that are still here staring at me. It's just Kirishima, Asui, and Uraraka but still. I turn away from them with my cheeks burning as I begin to run out of the parking lot.
