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

Chapter 24

Todoroki's P.O.V.

"So do you know who did it?" Kirishima asked.

I finally had made my decision to answer his question.

"Yeah I do, but it's honestly not in my place to tell you," I answered.

He nodded his head and stood up.

"I figured you would say something along those lines. I know it's not really my business so thanks anyways," he said.

He then walked out of the door. The expression on his face never changed the whole time we were talking. It's pretty crazy. I took a deep breath and walked to my dresser so I could change my clothes. I felt a headache coming in so I looked over at the end of the dresser and grabbed my pill bottle.

Shoto Todoroki
Take two every six hours

I shook the bottle noticing there was only three left. I need to get them refilled tomorrow. These pills help me not think about certain things in my past. I skipped two of the pills today because I slept in so late. That's why my head is starting to hurt. Memories are trying to come back.

I put one of the pills in my hand and went to my cooler to grab a bottle of water. The headache was getting worse, so I sat on my bed and took the pill. I didn't feel like getting back up to change my clothes so I just took my shirt off and laid down. Within a few seconds, I was asleep.

Kirishima's P.O.V.

Sometimes I think that I overestimate myself. I think that I'm so strong, but really I'm always in pain. I think that I can take on the world, but really I can barely bring myself to hurt a rat. I think that I have high motivation, but really I always want to sleep away all my sorrows. They say there is always a somebody for someone. And they say that they might be right around the corner. But I don't see a somebody for me. I have nobody.

Sometimes I feel trapped in between reality and expectations. My string was always a Purple Rejected String. I never seen the actual color of it. I never knew if it was red or blue. Which means I never knew if my soulmate was a boy or girl. I keep hoping that one day my string will change, but honestly, I know that will never happen. It feels like my mind plays tricks on me over and over again.

When we were first put in our classes, I automatically knew who it was. My string connected to a boy named Katsuki Bakugou. But of course, my string didn't change. A string that is rejected from the beginning means that your soulmate isn't really your soulmate if you know what I mean. He's my soulmate, but I'm not his.

Physically, it hasn't affected me at all. But emotionally it has. My happiness is starting to feel forced day by day.

"Hey Kirishima!" a voice pulled me out of my thoughts.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around. The person that just called my name was Kaminari. He has two tickets in his hands and was waving them around.

"What are those for?" I asked.

His smile grew bigger.

"For the two of us, of course!" he exclaimed. "I was going to buy three so Bakugou could come with us, but I saw how you acted around him a few hours ago. So I just got two for the two of us!"

It took me a second to respond to him. I was confused because he could've just taken Bakugou instead. They hang out way more.

"Okay, when?" I asked.

"Right now!" he said.

It's 9 pm, why did he schedule it so late? And so sudden?

"But curfew-"

"It's fine, I asked Aizawa if he could let us leave just for tonight. I had to do some major begging for it to happen so be thankful," he said.

At first I just stared at him. But then I cracked a smile. I also chuckled at him too. This time it felt real.

"Where are we going anyways?" I asked.

"That, my dear, is for me to know, and for you to find out," he said.

I cocked my eyebrow and smiled.

"Uh...my dear?" I questioned.

He didn't answer and just turned around and started walking.

"Are you coming? Or are you ditching our date?" Kaminari asked.

I laughed as I ran up next to him. Right now, I genuinely feel happy. It doesn't feel forced like usual.

_________________________________________Author's Note:

So on Tuesday night I added a chapter that was asking a question. The question was, who do you ship Kirishima with other than the three main characters of this story. I got a few requests on doing another polyamorous relationship with Denki and Sero. Also a few with Denki and Mina. But the most suggested one was with just Denki. I was honestly already going to go with that, but I wanted to ask what you guys think about it.

Hope you enjoy!!

I love to read and reply to some of your comments so please comment. And don't forget to vote for this chapter.

Two updates every Friday.
