Todoroki sat at her vanity, wearing a white thigh-high dress, applying makeup. At first, after outing herself, she'd never thought much about makeup, but now that she was with Deku, she spent time learning how to apply it, with a good deal of training coming from her sister Fuyumi. On a night like tonight, she was obsessive about applying it, mainly because she wanted everything to be perfect for her little green bean. Tonight, he had invited her to Club 1186, one of the hottest discos in Musutafu City. Ordinarily, she didn't think much of disco music, but he had told her how much it would mean to him if he had somebody to go with, and since she loved him very much, she agreed to go with him. While Todoroki was still applying her makeup, she heard somebody knocking at her bedroom door.

"Hold on a minute!" said Todoroki.

"Sis, your boyfriend's here!" said Fuyumi.

"Tell him to wait a minute!"

"Gotcha!"

Todoroki tried to apply her remaining makeup as quickly as possible, but also tried to be neat, too. Fortunately, she managed to do so without messing up, and she headed for the door. There was Deku, wearing a brown suit with black pinstripes, a white button-down shirt and a black bowtie. She smiled when he saw him.

"Deku, you look very handsome tonight!" said Todoroki.

Deku giggled. "Speak for yourself! You look stunningly beautiful!"

Todoroki blushed, but kept smiling. "You're so sweet! Now enough delaying, let's go!"

Deku and Todoroki headed to Club 1186. Formerly the Horikoshi Theatre, it had been converted into a disco in 1979 and had survived throughout the rise and fall of disco by catering to different groups. The lobby was basically unchanged from the building's theater days, save for some neon lighting around the admissions desk.

After paying their entry fees, Deku and Todoroki headed for the dance floor. Ever since they'd approached the front door of the club, they could feel the music beckoning them to the dance floor thanks to the club's Graebar sound system. In the lobby, the music was starting to fill them up, and by the time they got to the dance floor, it was really taking them higher. The lighting system was something to behold: a series of disco balls of varying sizes hanging at different heights above the dance floor, plus a green laser shining at random disco balls in sync with the music. As if that weren't enough, the walls were dotted with small strobe lights that sparkled in random patterns, also in sync with the music.

Speaking of the music, the DJ's current selection was "Deliverance" by Space. Granted, the song was currently in the slow piano-laced intro phase, but it was enough to entice Deku and Todoroki to the dance floor. Once that disco beat kicked in, the laser started cycling faster, and Deku and Todoroki really got up and boogied. Despite having been a fan of disco music for a few years now, Deku had always been too shy about going to a club, feeling that it would be silly to go by himself, but now that he had Todoroki to dance with, it gave him great joy. He didn't mind that tonight was one of those nights where the club was really hopping, either. After all, nobody paid any particular attention to either of them, so they were free to dance and get lost in the music and lights. Right now, he was having the time of his life, and the more he danced with her, the more he wanted to come back on some other night.

Todoroki was really enjoying herself, too. What she really loved about the experience was how the music spoke to her. Hearing the repeated chants of "deliverance", it reminded her of how Deku gave her deliverance from the inhibitions she had in regards to the "hot" portion of her Quirk, which led to her finding the courage to out her true identity to the rest of her class. Sure, heavy metal had always been her greatest love when it came to music, but this disco song was really speaking to her in ways that metal never had. Given how much she was enjoying dancing with her beau as well, she decided that disco was a genre of music she could really get into.

Deku and Todoroki danced for at least a couple of hours before deciding to call it a night. They exited Club 1186 holding hands with each other, smiles on their faces.

"Deku, thanks for taking me tonight! This was one of the best times I've ever had!"

"Actually, I should be thanking you, Todoroki! For such a long time, I was hoping that I could find somebody to come to this place, and now that I had you to come along with me, I wanna go back!"

Todoroki wrapped her free arm around Deku. "You and me both!"

Once again, Todoroki kissed Deku. While he enjoyed her kisses regardless, the fact that he could still feel the music within him made this one that much more sensual. She held onto him for quite a bit of time before letting go.

"Deku…would you like to come back to my place?"

Deku frowned. "I would…but what would your father think?"

Todoroki smiled. "Who says he needs to know? Besides, he's out of town on business."

Deku's smile returned. "Good point. I accept!"

Todoroki said nothing else as she took Deku's hand and they headed back to her place for the night.

Criticism is gold. Negativity and nitpicking are pyrite.
