Are You My Someone? {TodoBaku}

chapter 16

Todoroki p.o.v.

There was a knock at the door. "Hey, can you get that." Katsuki says, he was on the floor playing with Nene.

"Uh sure." I walk out of the room the to the front door. I open the door to see a unfamiliar face, of course. "Oh sorry, I'll go get Bakugou." I pause. "Assuming you're here to see him?" I asked, looking at the tulips in the guy's hand.

"Um. Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks man." He says, with a very bright smile. Like even brighter than Midoriya's.

"Right." I close the door and walk back to Katsuki's bedroom.

"Who was it?" He says, scratching Nene's belly.

"Uh, some red-head guy, with piercings. He had flowers too." I spoke. To be honest I really don't like whatever's going on.

"What the fuck- no way, why the hell is he here." He starts to get up with Nene in his arms. "Quick, what day is it."

"The 16th."

"Shit." He ran to the front door. I followed. Curiosity having it's way.

He opens the door. "Katsuki. Hey." The guy says, with so much enthusiasm. I could die.

"What the hell do you want?" Bakugou says, while petting my cat.

"To give you these-" he tries to hand the flowers to Katsuki. "And to apologize."

"Apologize?" Bakugou scoffed. "It's not like you ever really tried."

"I did." The man stood his ground. "By the way- who's the guy behind you." He points to me.

"Ugh- Icy-hot give us a second, will ya."

"Oh ye-" he shut the door in my face. "ah." I didn't even get Nene. Oh well.

I walk to the livingroom to mind my own business, but all I could hear was the bickering outside.

If I'm not mistaken I believe that's Bakugou's ex. I don't completely know all the details of their past relationship, but it seem like something serious.

After a couple of minutes Bakugou walks back in with the tulips, and Nene. But when he came into the livingroom I could see he was crying silently.

"What's wrong?" I get up and walk over to him, I place a hand on his forearm. "Does it have to do with that guy?" He wasn't answering so I waited. He was done crying. That's good, I guess.

His head hits my chest and he drops the tulips. "Today would be our 3rd anniversary...." he says, quietly. "That's why he brought the flowers." He sighs. "I don't know if he thought I would take him back, but that was pathetic...... I left for a reason." He continued. He looked up. "And you're just a damn stranger."

"No I'm not."

"Yes you are." He laughs a little. But I could see he was hurt.

"What did you tell him?" I asked.

"I told him to leave, and that I wouldn't want his apology or flowers. But he insisted that I take the damn flowers. He's always been so damn persistent." He puts his head back on my chest. I slowly wrap my arms around him. "He left in tears- as he should..." he shed another tear.

"Are you gonna be alright?"

"Yeah.....just stay a little, okay?" He says. I've never seen someone so miserable, especially if they seem so independent and stronger. I nod my head but forget he can't see me.

"Sure. Bakugou."

"Hey, how'd you get that scar?"

We were sitting close under a fuzzy blanket on the couch. The tv was playing, and I stared straight ahead blankly. "Oh. Right. Um. My mother gave it to me."

"What? Wait- How?" He says in disbelief. "Why the hell would she?"

"My left side reminded her too much of my father."

"What's wrong with your damn father?" He asks genuinely confused.

"Bakugou. Do you not know me?" I stare him straight in the eyes.

"I mean- I don't fucking know- I guess not, geez." He says.

"Ever heard of a company called Endeavor? The owner is my father, Todoroki Enji." I state, shock to see he didn't know. "As you know I'm a Todoroki.."

"Right. Guess it slipped past me." He says, shaking his head. "So... what's wrong with your damn dad."

"Well.....he wanted to create the perfect family with someone just as wealthy as him, my mother. She was honestly interested in him despite his desire and went along with the whole idea. Later she found she was wrong for doing that. My mother ended up putting herself and her children in danger by being with that man. He started to abuse my mother, not physically but mentally. The mental abuse drain her to the point that even the mention of my father's name would shake her up. When I was little, around five, she poured boiling hot water on my left side. All because of him and his wretched ways. When I was older my mother got sent away to a mental hospital, and my father tried to make me become a prodigy. It work for a while." I sigh and touched my left side. "Until I decided to cut off ties with him and move in with my sister. He has seem to forgotten me, I haven't heard from him since and the company seem to be going well. I visit my mother from time to time too."

"Woah. How the hell do you cope? I thought I was going through some tough shit, but you're on a whole other level." He says, then he slaps his hand over his mouth. "Sorry, I know it must've been tough." He looks away. "Are you good now?"

"Yes, Bakugou. I'm okay."
