Back To You ( Touya Todoroki x Reader )

chapter 20

"(Y/n)." Hohimi says as she turns the corner. You are on break and since the kids are on summer break, you decided to have lunch with them. "Yes Hohimi? " You say trying to not sound annoyed. "The sink down stairs isn't turning off again. And yes, we called a plumber and their job, we found out was only temporary. Our water bill is going to go through the roof if we don't do something." You sigh. "Just turn off the water valve that leads to that sink. We don't just have one sink." You tell her. Hohimi nods and goes back around the corner.

"Ya know, momma, you could just assign an assistant manager and tell your friends to go to them if they have any problems." Shiro says. You ruffle his hair before responding. "Yeah, I wish I had that much authority. I just run one wing, not the entire thing. " You tell him.

After you have finished lunch, you head back to your office and give the triplets each some paper, colored pencils, and a clipboard so that they could draw whatever came to their minds, while you worked on a case.

The current case you're working on was way more tricky than the ones that you're used to working on. Instead of being on finding reasons why a missing child might be missing, you are working on finding the identity person who was leaving dead bodies all over the city. If you didn't know better, you'd think it was the arson villain who was arrested a few weeks prior.

This is obviously not your average case of an arsonist, this was a much hotter fire. To your knowledge, nobody expect yourself has or had ever seen skin as burnt as the skin on those bodies.

You glance at the clock on the wall. 1:08 is what the clock reads. You then stand up and stretch. "Alrightie why don't we get some water? I'm getting thirsty." You say. Shiro stands right up and walks over to the door. "I thought you'd never ask." He says. The rest of you follow him out the door, down the hall, and into the break room.

The maintenance team has everyone keep their water bottles in the break room so that no one spills anything on the expensive equipment. Before they put that restriction to work, people would often accidentally spill their coffee on almost everything that is worth way over five hundred dollars.

"Momma, what're you working on?" Murasaki asks you. You set your drink on the table the four of you were standing by. "There's been a very dangerous arsonist going around, and we're trying to find out who they are. But, the part that makes it harder for us to identify them is that the fire dies down before we can get there." You tell her.

She takes a moment to think about god knows what, then takes a dirink of her water. "Do they have really strong flames? If they do then they could be the guy uncle Shouto saw at the uhm, camp he went to." Ao suggests. 'It is a possibility.' You think to yourself. "It might be him, but we haven't found much information on him other than his appearance." You tell him.

You turn to look at Shiro and it turns out that he's spaced out as he's staring at the random poster by the corner of the room. "You okay over there Shiro?" You ask. He hesitates a moment before turning his head. "Huh?"

You laugh a little bit. "Okay, let's go back. I need to keep working." You said as you walked towards the door, the trio not too far behind you.

"Why can't we all just get along? " You asked yourself. Touya had been getting in some fights with some of the boys in another class and ended up dragging you into the situation.

"It's their faults. They decided to push me."
"But that doesn't give you the right to tell their teacher that they bit me!"

Touya huffed. He thought that you were being ridiculous. You on the other hand, thought he was the one being ridiculous. But you were both wrong, the situation as a whole was ridiculous.

"Why don't we just forget about this for now, and keep playing our game of uno?" You suggested. Touya shrugged then placed down a blue seven. After ten more minutes, you ended up winning.

"It's thsir faults." Touya said. You sighed as you put the cards back in the box. "Can we not argue 'bout that? It happened in the past, so we shouldn't let that effect us now." You suggested. "Ehh" Was all Touya replied with. You giggled a little.

It was the simplest things that always made you laugh.

Fuyumi turned the corner and grabbed the box of uno cards. "Where're ya going with that?" You asked her. Fuyumi turned around to face you. "Imma gonna teach Natsu how to play!" She said as she bounced on the balls of her feet. "Alrightie, you go do that." You said. The moment you finished talking, Fuyumi bolted out of the room.

"She doesn't think that Natsu's too young?" Touya asked you. You shrugged. "Let her have fun. Also ket her fail at teaching a baby how to play a game. " You told him.

"God, your humor's dark." Touya leaned back a little.
