S3 Part 21 - Pour Some Sugar On Me

You stood outside of the Todoroki house as if a force field stopped you from entering. It wasn't the first time you had seen the exterior but this would be your first time inside.

"What's wrong?" Shoto asked.

"Huh? Nothing!" You adjusted the straps of your dress.

We're just outside the new number one hero, and major asshole's house - no big deal!

"My dad isn't here, if you were wondering."

"Oh," you winced, "I'm sorry. I guess I am a little intimidated."

"Don't be," he said, "I'll show you around."

He waited for you to walk all the way in before closing the door behind you. You were sweating bullets - why? It's not like you hadn't met Endeavor before. And you have been in the company of much worse!

Shoto gave you a quick tour of the house, which felt more like a mini-palace. So much space, and it felt so empty. You passed a room with a family photo that caught your eye.

So, Shoto has siblings! You smiled at picture of Shoto as a toddler. He was so cute - it was no wonder he grew up so handsome. Even a younger Endeavor was pretty hot, but he didn't look any less scary. That scowl could kill.

Wow, his mom is really pretty...

"Your house is so quiet, but there are so many people in your family photo," you said.

"My dad is working. My brother is at college. My sister is around but she's with her boyfriend... and mom is still at the hospital, where she's been for years."

"I see..." you almost forgot about his sad upbringing, "Have you seen her lately? Your mom?"

"Yeah. She's doing well, actually. It's not as weird as I thought, seeing her again."

"You have another brother?" You asked.

Shoto nodded, "Toya. He died a long time ago."

"Oh, gods..." I just need to shut up, "I'm so sorry."

You felt his hand brush against yours. His fingers lightly threaded themselves through yours. When you looked up you were relieved that none of your questions seemed to have effected his mood.

"Don't worry about it. I should feed you. What do you like?"

"Anything!" You said, glad to switch to a happier topic, "Are we cooking?"

"We can, or I can order something."

"No... let's bake! I kinda have a sweet tooth right now. Should we go to the store first?"

"No, I think my sister stalks up on baking supplies."

"Is it okay that we use them?"

"Definitely. She's the only one who makes anything anyway," he said.

You followed him as he kept your hand in his. It wasn't going to be a "Denki" date where everything was planned out. Shoto was actually more casual. This could be fun, if you could get him to loosen up a little.

Once in the kitchen, Shoto grabbed the measuring cups and bowls while you sifted through the recipe books. One treat looked fairly easy to follow.

"Like chocolate?" You asked.

"I'll eat whatever you make."

"Famous last words!"

You giggled to yourself, because you were clearly hilarious, while Shoto watched you. Now that you thought about it, had you ever seen the guy laugh? Like, genuinely laugh.
