Bandages (My Hero Academia Fanfiction)

Chapter 19

_____________________________________________

I wake up due to warm sensation on my face as a thin ray of sun managed to slip through the small gap between the curtains. I sat up as I let a quiet yawn escape my lips.

I wanted to get out of bed, but right then I noticed a bundle of covers next to the bed on the floor. I looked at the pillow only to see a mess of white and red hair.

'Todoroki. That's right... He slept in this room with me after he woke me up from my nightmare.'

I could barely see his face and his whole body was hidden under the blanket. I pulled down his blanket just a bit to see his face and he looked so peaceful.

I took my phone to see how late it was since the sun was already up.

8:23 AM

When I saw how late it was, I gently tapped Todoroki's shoulder trying to wake him up. He slowly opened his eyes before he looked up at me.

He was laying on his back and I was laying on my belly on the bed looking down at him. I watched as he recognised me and a small smile crept on his lips, before he glanced disoriented around the room as he sat up.

"Morning." I said as I watched him recognising the room as the guest's room.

"Good morning." He said with a raspy voice.

He checked the time on his phone before facing me once again.

"Why did you wake up?"

"The sun. And when I saw how late it is I woke you up too. Why? Do you usually sleep later than this on Saturday?" I questioned doubtfully.

"No. I usually wake up even earlier than this. But last night I slept particularly well."

"Same here." I said with a smile on my lips as I tried to pat down my messy morning main of hair. "My bed hair must be crazy..." I muttered.

He suddenly became self conscious as he tried to split his white hair from the red hair.

"I can't imagine what mine looks like..." He muttered sounding a bit embarrassed.

"Believe me or not, but it doesn't look all that bad... even in this messy form of it." I said and I was almost completely sure I saw a small blush spread across his face.

He stood up and started packing his futon. He was wearing a white T-shirt and some light gray shorts.

"I'll go change... I'll see you down in the kitchen?" He asked me with his hands full.

I got out of bed and went to open the door for him.

"Sure thing." I said as I held the door open for him.

He walked out of the guest's room and headed towards his room. I quickly took a shower and then changed into some clothes Fuyumi left for me. They were a light pink loose T-shirt and a pair of dark gray sweatpants.

The bruises weren't even bothering me anymore, even though they're mark was still on my skin. The black bruises became smaller and gained a more purplish color while the skin around them was a sickening yellow that was slowly fading away.

I made my way down to the kitchen where I was greeted by Fuyumi who was getting some ingredients ready to prepare breakfast with and by Natsuo who was vigorously writing something down in a notebook.

I could feel Natsuo's grey eyes on me as I crossed the kitchen to see how I could help Fuyumi. When I turned to look at him with a questioning expression on my face he run a hand through his white hair as a sly smirk appeared on his lips.
