(Enji Todoroki x NB! Reader)

There was something about you that drew him in close.

Perhaps it was the way you smelled.

Or the way you waltzed across your wooden floors.

He found himself staring, completely entranced by your beauty.

But, he never knew how to express these emotions, much less act on them. So, he watched you from a distance. You, in your little bookstore, assisting kids with their items at the front.

You looked calm there. At peace. Then, your e/c eyes would flicker up to his, forcing him to move along with his day.

You weren't oblivious. He comes by on his lunch break, timid to walk in. It made your heart flutter a bit.

So, you made it your mission to at least invite him inside. The winter months were well upon you and you only wished for him to not get a cold.

He comes by without fail. Same time everyday. With your heart leaping out of your throat, you rush out the door.

The bell jingles, making him subconsciously look towards the door.

There you were, a small smile on your lips with your little cardigan over your much shorter stature.

You could see him physically freeze despite the cold weather like a deer in headlights. His flames bouncing a bit more wildly.

"Hello. Did you want to come inside? It's a little chilly out here and I don't want you get a cold."

Endeavor stays quiet, unable to register what you've said. Short bursts of heat would splash on your face, but you brush it off as nerves.

"I-I'm sorry, I didn't hear you." He says. His voice wasn't on par with his usual tone. It was more gentle, yet a hint of fear lingered behind each word.

You sat quietly, allowing yourself to take in his features.

Sky blue eyes soaking up your presence. His crimson hair perfectly complimenting them.

He looked pretty under the soft glow.

You tilt your head down slightly, emerging from your deep thoughts. But, as soon as you came up, embarrassment reigns havoc.

"I'm sorry! I just wanted to ask if you wished to come inside." You shout.

His eyebrows knit in surprise, blinking rapidly to regain his composure.

"Or at least..." you wandered a bit, catching his gaze again, but not letting go.

"To talk over a cup of tea."

You looked nervous whispering the last part of your request. The both of you remained silent, scared of rejection and the unknown.

Then, he takes a deep breath and rising to his feet. You noted mentally how your neck hurt to look at him as you waited for an answer.

"Can I ask what varieties of tea you have?"

"Cinnamon, Chamomile, Ginger and some Raspberry." You answer.

"Chamomile would be fine."

Of course. You smile, seeing him follow after you.

Briefly, you mentally pulled out your grocery list and scratched a new item.
