Fated Soulmates | TodoBakuDeku AU | Book #1 Of the Trilogy

Chapter 14

Bakugou's P.O.V.

Where is this heterochromia bastard taking me?! Why the hell are we leaving out of the building? Is he trying to get us suspended? Ugh!! I hate him so much. Why did I even say yes.

"Come to my dorm tonight, if it's not too weird."

Tch! I thought he needed help with homework. On the bright side, being angry is something that I haven't felt in a few days.

"So you gonna tell me where we going?" I asked.

He came to a stop and let go of my wrist. He then turned and looked at me with a smile on his face.

"We're here! Look around," he instructed.

I was a bit confused so I did look around and was surprised to say the least. It was...beautiful. The sky was dark enough for you to see all of the stars shining bright, the tress were rustling in the wind, and the grass smelled so good. I know that's a weird thing to say, but it did. I didn't really want to admit it, but it really was nice and relaxing.

"What do you think? If you don't like it we can go ba-"

"NO!" I interrupted. "I mean, we can stay. It's alright I guess," I said.

I saw him give a soft smile.

"That means you like it a lot don't you?" he said.

I gave him a shocked look.

"I can take you here more often if you like," he suggested.

"I guess that would be fine," I mumbled.

"Great," I heard him whisper to himself.

He sat on the ground and turned his attention towards the sky then at me.

"You just gonna stand there or what?" he asked.

I sat down on the ground next to him and looked up at the stars. Doing this reminded me of the time dad and I wished upon a shooting star. I realized a tear fell from my eye and was about to wipe it away.

"Leave it. It's okay to mourn your father," Todoroki said still looking up at the stars.

I looked at him a little shook and he looked at me too.

"Your emotions are trying to escape because you keep holding them in. Let them free for once," he said.

I hesitated before looking back at the stars. Remembering the last conversation I had with my dad.

Before I knew it, I really was crying. I wasn't sobbing or anything. Just a bunch of tears flowing down my face. I stopped looking at the stars and ducked my head in my legs and arms. I heard Todoroki snicker a bit, but I ignored it. After around ten minutes of crying, I was starting to feel sleepy and tired. I looked over at Todoroki and he was still peacefully looking up at the stars. I wanted to go back to the dorms, but I didn't want to interrupt him. So I kept quiet and tried staying awake. It felt almost impossible though because I was just that sleepy all of a sudden.

"We can go back if you like," Todoroki said.

Can he read my mind or something? That's just impressive.

"Yeah I want to if you don't mind," I replied.

He looked happy that I wasn't yelling and instead talking like a normal person. He then stood up and stuck his hand out to help me up. I hesitated before taking his hand and standing up. When I stood up I was a bit confused. We were still holding hands. He wasn't letting go and he wouldn't look away from my face either. He was staring intensely into my eyes and when I looked back into his, I couldn't look away. This was very sudden and I don't really know how to react to these situations without getting annoyed.

Then it looked like reality had hit him because he snatched his hand away and he looked disgusted at himself. He quickly masked that look with a smile.

"Let's go back now," he said.

I followed behind him while looking at the ground. For the first time in a couple of days, I feel happy. I finally had figured out why Todoroki asked my to come to his dorm tonight. He just wanted to make me feel happy. And he succeeded. He might not know it yet, but I feel a lot greater now.

When we got into the building we were about to go our separate ways, since are rooms aren't exactly what you call close. But Todoroki was still standing there and it looked like he had something to say. Only problem is, he wasn't talking.

"Okay, so I'm gonna go now," I said.

"No! I mean, don't leave yet," he said.

Jokes on him because I wasn't really about to go. I just figured it would make him spit out what he had to say. Looks like I was right too.

"What is it?" I asked.

He glanced at me then looked away. His cheeks turned red a little, which was actually kind of cute. He noticed he was blushing and slapped his hand over the lower part of his face. He was still looking away though.

"I just wanted to ask i-if we could maybe be friends," he finally got out.

My eyes widened at his request and a wide smile crept on my face. I didn't even mean for it to, it just happened. But I didn't realize that one sentence could make me feel an emotion that I haven't felt in three whole days. Just pure happiness.

"Of course! I mean, yeah! I mean, whatever, we could be cool!" I said.

I was trying to hide my excitement like I would normally do but whatever I said, it came out the same every time.

"Oh! Alright then. I'll see you tomorrow," he said.

I nodded my head in response. He then walked away to his dorm room and I walked to mine's. I guess I just needed someone to help me feel better and to be honest I fell like still need one other person. But I'm good for now. Maybe I'll feel even better in the morning after some rest.
