Midoriya was frantic. He was already a minute late to the common room and he was still in his boxers. He had spent to long in the bathroom but he wanted to make sure he looked and smelled nice after the grueling training thrown at them that day. He had styled his hair more so than he usually did, brushed his teeth, put on cologne, and was now searching every place he could think of for a clean pair of jeans. He let out a sigh of relief when he opened his closet doors and a pair of dark jeans tumbled out from the shelf above his head. He always forgot to look up there when he was in a hurry.
He slipped into the jeans and threw his white shirt that said "t-shirt" across the chest. He didn't have time to question how he looked so he sprinted out the door to the common room. Of course, Todoroki was already sitting there with his usual, tough demeanor adorning his features. His hair was dripping slightly onto his bright yellow t-shirt with no designs scribbled across it. He too was wearing a dark pair of jeans and smelled of cologne. Midoriya had never known Todoroki to wear cologne and it made him feel somewhat honored to be the reason, "Sorry I'm late."
"Barely," Todoroki noted. "Don't worry about it."
Midoriya nodded and took a seat on the couch catty-cornered to the chair Todoroki was seated in. The list of date ideas was neatly spread out in front of him on the table. Midoriya's eyes immediately went to, 'Black Light Arcade' and a smile stretched across his face, "That sounds like fun."
"Which one?" Todoroki asked calmly.
Midoriya's head snapped up as he realized that he had said that out loud, "Oh, sorry. I was talking about the Black Light Arcade. I didn't know we had one of those in this area."
A smile touched Todoroki's features, "I thought that one might catch your attention. According to this list we are supposed to pick one place to eat and one activity. That can be our activity if you'd like. You're right. It could be fun."
A small blush came across Midoriya's cheeks, "I didn't mean to force you to do what I wanted. You can choose the restaurant since I chose the activity."
Todoroki chuckled and shook his head, "You didn't make me feel that way, but if it's alright, I would like to choose the restaurant. There is one listed here that sounds interesting to me."
"Yeah! Sure!" Chimed Midoriya. "Which one are you looking at?"
"Fire & Ice. Apparently they have a Hibachi Grill as well as ice cream made in house. Considering my quirk I thought that may be rather fitting. If you don't mind eating there of course," He added the last statement while looking up at Midoriya hopefully. Even if Midoriya hadn't been interested in that restaurant he wouldn't have been able to turn it down when he knew how happy it would make Todoroki.
"That sounds great!" He let out ecstatically.
Todoroki smiled and looked at the ground before standing up, "We should finish getting ready. I am sure there will be a line at the restaurant considering the holiday."
