Trust me (Todoroki x reader)

Chapter 36

Everything was dark, you looked around, trying to find out where you were. Far in the distance, a light appeared, so with cautious steps you got closer until your were right in front of it.

"Come..." a quiet voice whispered.

Taking a step forward, you were pull through it before you even had a chance to get any closer. It was blinding for w second, but your eyes quickly adjusted. You were stood in the UA dorms, in the common room.

"Kirishima...?" You asked softly.

The red headed boy never looked up, he was sat beside Mina, rubbing his hand up and down her back while she sobbed into her hands.

"Has anyone seen Todoroki?" Iida asked.

The pair shook their heads, and you spun to face the class rep. He stared right through you, as if he couldn't see you.

You looked down at you hands, putting two and two together. The transparent form of your hands, the fact that Kirishima and Mina never heard you. You weren't there for them, you were some sort of ghost.

Your vision became blurry, you begun to run through the building, following the path you knew so well until you came up to a door.

You went to knock, but realised there was no use, so you stepped through, but he wasn't there so you headed back, to the other side side of the building you ran through your door.

Todoroki was sat on your bed, your mask in his hands as he simply stared at it.

"I'm so sorry..." he whispered, holding the mask to his chest.

You broke, tears streaming down your face, you sat on the bed next to him you reached out to take his hand but you went right through it.

Wiping your tears, you sniffled a little as you stared at the boy.

"I was going to ask you on a date... I know you probably wouldn't understand what it was, but I don't either. I wanted us to figure it out together..." he muttered, "they don't know if you'll wake up... it's been a couple of weeks. We were given time off, I see you everyday... I just... want you to wake up (Y/N)..."

Your eyes widened, reaching out, you took his hand again. This time, you made contact with him.

He froze, looking around the room, but he couldn't find anything.

Your hand stayed in his and you smiled softly, even if he couldn't see it, you gave him a smile.

"I'm sorry Todoroki..."

He gasped lightly, standing up in shock, your mask fell to the floor.

"(Y...Y/N)..."

Standing up, you watched him fall to the floor, tears in his eyes. You knelt in front of him, wrapping your arms around his neck as he cried, a few tears of your own slipped out.

"I promise, I'll try wake up..." you whispered.

With that, the room faded, and he felt the warmth around him fade.

You appeared in your hospital room, the familiar figure of your mother was stood at the foot of your bed.

"M.. mama..."

"Now sweetheart, don't cry."

She walked over and embraced you, letting you cry into her neck as you held her tightly. She hadn't changed one bit since you were a kid.

"You've grown to be such a beautiful young woman." She said pulling away.

She ran her finger along the scar on your nose, smiling softly at you. The door opened revealing Aizawa and Toshinori, nothing taking a seat by your bed.

"They come by every day, but they're not the only ones. The red and white haired boy does too, the green haired boy, the pink skinned girl, all your friends. But these two spend the evenings here."

You glanced at the two heroes, Toshinori was reading to you while Aizawa was cleaning up.

"I remember them well. I harbour no hatred towards them for what happened. All Might gave you that scar, yes, but it was an accident. He was the only who took you to safety of the paramedics. He took himself out of the fight and sat with you."

Your mother turned to Aizawa, watching as he stood at the end of your bed.

"Eraser, he was a very good friend of mine when we were younger. He's your godfather, he promised to always care for you, I never explained my quirk to him, so he erased it no one knew what would happen. He spent a long time trying to find you."

You stared in disbelief, the hero that gave you your scar, sat with you while you were being patched up. And the one you hated for taking your mother away was trying to find you all this time to care for you.

"We've got plenty of time... can we.. talk...? I want to spend as much time with my daughter as I can..."

You nodded, both of you heading up to the roof as you begun to talk. You told here everything, how you grew up, your quirks, how they found you, your friends, Todoroki, Lucio, the fight, everything. By the time you had finished, darkness had fallen over the city, and stars shone brightly in the sky.

"I see... Lucio.. I have yet to see him. But when I do I'll be sure to have a stern talking to with him. I'm proud of you for doing the right thing sweetheart, even when you were angry. I know it can be hard with quirks like this, but you'll be an amazing hero some day, you know that? You've got friends to support you, teachers to guide you, and even a boy standing in your corner, willing to take your hand and show you the way."

"What if.. I can't be a hero...?"

Your mother smiled, placing a hand on your shoulder as she kissed your head.

"Then you be the best you can be, show them who you are. Scream it to the whole world."

You both went quiet, you sat there thinking everything over.

"Do you trust him? Todoroki?"

You tensed for a moment before relaxing, a soft smile appearing on your face as you nodded.

"I do..."

"Then let him help you, let him guide you, and I promise it will all be okay."
