Todoroki POV

It's 2pm.

I stand infront of my closet.
I can't decide what to wear.

Something casual. But nice. I didn't know this would be so stressful.
I bet Katsuki isn't struggling this much.

~Meanwhile next door~

"DIE DIE DIE YOU STUPID CLOTHES!"

~back in Todoroki's room~

4:30pm

I know, I'll wear the stuff I bought today...

I put on the beige sweater, Bakugou picked out. It's a little oversize.
I also put on some black jeans.

I like it.

I put on some black sneakers and a sliver bracelet.

When I go into the lobby I see Bakugou already waiting at the door impatiently.
He is wearing black cargo pants, a hoodie with a skull on it and a white t-shirt under it.

But I don't really care because he looks
beautiful and hot and cute in every thing

He was doing something on his phone. When I approached him he opened the door and we walked out together.
We had to take the bus to the next town. It was by the ocean and the fair was directly next to the beach.
We walked to the bus station, talking about what we wanted to do at the fair.
We're almost at the bus stop now and I begin to notice how nervous I am around him....on this...date.

Shit shit shit what should I do? Should I take his hand? Can I take his hand?

I reach out for it but pull it back. I guess he noticed because he stops and grabs my hand.

"I think you look very adorable"
he says and winks at me. Of course, I blush uncontrollably.
Suddenly he stops walking

"So I know this is a bad time to talk about this but.... I think we should go to the teachers and talk to them about your dad."
He says out of nowhere.

"Um. O-okay. But you have to go with me."
I squeeze his hand.
I know he is only looking out for me but this really is a bad time to talk about this.
He hugs me and kisses my head.

"There is no fucking way you will do that alone. I promised I would stay with you didn't I?"

Oh yeah right. That was quite some time ago. So he still remembers that?

He pulls away and grins, then we go to the bus.
We only have to stay on the bus for about 10 minutes, for us to reach our stop. I can already see the fair from my seat in the bus.

"So do you like roller-coasters?"

"I've never been on one before. So I wouldn't know."

"Then that is the first thing we will ride"
he states as we get off the bus.

So we did as he said. The roller-coaster was.... wild.
I'm not sure how I feel about it. I don't totally hate it.
After riding two others of the rides, he bought me cotton candy as a reward, since he probably noticed that I'm not much of a fan of those crazy, murderous rides..
We played some games at some of the tents.
He had a few outbursts, but I've finally learned how to handle him. I pay the guy at the tent, then we go to one of those boxing machines, where he then lets out his rage.
At one of those shooting games he won me quite a few items. Stuff like teddybears and other stuffed animals.

"I want to go on the ferris wheel."
I say.

"Okay. Sure why not."

I know he probably would rather go on another roller-coaster ride.
But it's my turn to choose.
We walk towards the ferris wheel, then he pulls me aside quickly.

"What are you doing?"

He puts a finger on his mouth as a sign to be quiet and the points to a alleyway between the tents. There I see Denki and Kiri, they're well... in the process of heavily making out.
Bakugou grins.
"Finally! It was so obvious they liked each other."

"It was?"
I ask confused.

"You are really bad at reading other people's feelings aren't you?"

Is he hinting at something?

"Yeah. I guess you right."

We go to the ferris wheel, pay and get on.
It's a beautiful  iew of the beach and the ocean on one side and the city's slyline on the other. I love it, up until the point, when we're at the very top and it stops moving.
I look out of the window and only now realize how high up we are.
I'm clinging to Bakugou's arm now.

"Are you afraid of heights?"
He asks, a little annoyed

"Um. I guess yeah kind of."

"THEN WHY DID YOU LOOK DOWN!? Damn Icyhot you're a real idiot!"

"I'M SORRYY!"
I whine and test my head on his shoulder.
He sighs, ending in a chuckle and and hugs me tightly.

I love how he does this, despite being mad, but I also know he isn't really mad at me.

"I love you"
Crap. I didn't mean to say that out loud.

"I already know that."

Oh yeah right. I told him already when I was drunk.
But he hasn't told how he feels about me even once... I mean he obviously does, but he hasn't told me that he does.
I guess I did kind of rush it with the whole love thing.
And I know he doesn't like to- or even can talk about all that stuff with feelings.

When we get off the ferris wheel, we decide to take a walk at the beach. Here? we sit down near the water in silence, listening to the sound of the crashing waves and the noise of the busy festival behind us.

"Do you?"
I ask.

Damn it why did I ask that?

"Do I what?"
He looks over at me with a confused look.

"...Love me."

"Um. I..."
he stutters

"No wait I'm sorry! I know you don't like to talk about that stuff."

He kisses me gently and then turns back to the ocean.
The sun is now almost gone.
With a sigh, he stands up and approaches the ocean.
He kneels down and writes something in the damp sand.
Curious, I get up to see what it is.

I smile a little at the letter, written in the sand, where they are alomst immediately washed away again. The writing in the sand said:

I am in love with you, Shoto! You dumbass.
