"...and the hero course too! Our subjects are so interesting that I keep studying every night. Someday when I become a Prohero, I'll ask you to upgrade my costume. You always like Engineering since we we're kids, I mean your quirk is 'Repair' and it's very compatible with your hobby." I continued rambling while the pink haired boy listening to whatever I'm saying. It's about an hour since we've arrived in this amazing restaurant. The food is great and the ambience is very relaxing.

The most amazing thing probably is the free food. Sosuke said it was his treat and I felt blessed but I refused at first. In the end, I accepted his offer since he insisted.

"I'm so glad you never lost your passion to become a Prohero. You never change Izuku, you're still adorable." Sosuke said while ruffling my hair, making me blush madly.

"I-I'm not adorable, geez.
Why do people always say that?" I whispered to myself, inflating my cheeks.

He chuckled as he raised his hand in defeat. "...Alright, if you say so." He said, sipping his red wine.

I finished my dish afterwards and so did he. Sosuke paid the meal and I thanked him for that. I felt his hands ruffled my head again and I hated the fact that he's much taller than me now, it's frustrating.

I remember as a kid, I always had this urge to protect him from anything but look at him now.

"Thank you, hero." He whispered in my ears out of the blue, in which I looked in confusion.

"For what?" I asked.

He only chuckled then a minute later, he spoke. "For everything." I looked at him while smiling and he smiled back to me.

"Of course, I told you as a kid I'll protect you right?" I replied, grinning while his hand resting on the top of my head.

It's kinda embarassing that I'm saying it to someone that's taller than me.

THIRD PERSON'S POV

[6:30PM]

"OI HALF'N HALF BASTARD!" Bakugo shouted as he saw Todoroki walking into the dorm.

"Hey Bakugo." He replied in his monotone voice, pissing off the blonde boy.

Bakugo is so sick of Todoroki's actions in the past weeks. He never failed to notice the distance between Todoroki and Midoriya. He always thought that there's something wrong with both of them and he's here to confirm it.

He suddenly barged towards Todoroki and grabbed his collar. There's no one around them to witness the events. Todoroki only looked in surprise from the sudden confrontation of Bakugo.

"What happened between you and Deku? Huh?" He growled in a threatening way. Todoroki slapped away his arms from him looking back threatingly.

"...Don't touch me." He growled back which made the blonde boy more pissed.

"YOU DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" he snapped. "...now, answer me!"

"You don't have any business between Izuku and I so back off." Todoroki warned coldly. Bakugo felt the urge to punch the boy because of his behaviour but he managed (thank God) to stop himself.

"Oh I do, because I care about that nerd. Do you even care about him?" The blonde boy replied in sarcasm, showing that he's aware of what's happening.

"Of course I--"

"STOP WITH THE BULLSHIT! I KNOW SOMETHING'S WRONG!" he snapped, grabbing his collar once again. "...Did you hurt Izuku? Huh!?" Bakugo asked.

Todoroki stayed calm but started to reflect about his own actions. He's saddened of the idea of him being the reason why Midoriya is hurt.
