He Can Treat You Better

Chapter 2: More Secrets?

(A/n This chapter begins at the same time as the last one did)

Todoroki POV:

I'm currently waiting for the elevator, I'm on floor 5 of the dorm building but I need to get to floor 4 because I need to talk to Uraraka about something which confuses me, my emotions. I think I have feelings for Midoriya but I can't be sure as I've never really felt emotions other than pain and numbness so I'm going to Uraraka for help. I hear the elevator arrive and walk in. The doors open on floor 4 and I see someone walk into Ashido's dorm, I have no idea who it is so I just ignore it and knock on Uraraka's door. Not even two seconds later the door opens and I see Uraraka standing there with Midoriya lying on the bed behind her, "oh uh did I interrupt something?" I ask hoping I didn't sound too disappointed "oh no! What did you need Todoroki?" "Well I kind of needed to talk to you Uraraka but I can come back another time when you are not so... busy." By the end of my sentence I was no longer looking at Uraraka but instead at Midoriya who was looking through what looked like a textbook or notebook, Uraraka follows my gaze "oh did you need to chat with me alone Todoroki?" "Uh, yeah, kind of, I can come back another time" I turn to leave but Uraraka stops me, "hey Deku I'll be back I just need to grab something from Todoroki's dorm" "okay Uraraka-san, hi Todoroki-kun!" "Hello Midoriya" I turn to walk away and this time instead of stopping me Uraraka follows.

We arrive at my dorm and I let us both in. I close the door behind us and Uraraka starts the conversation "so, Todoroki, what did you need?" "I need help with my emotions towards Midoriya" I get straight to the point (a/n whenever I use the word straight in this book I always feel like it's not quite the right word to use considering they aren't) "wait! You like Deku??" "I think so but I can't be sure as I am not very good with emotions" "okay, so would you kiss Deku?" I think for a second "Yes, I believe I would kiss Midoriya if the option was there" "okay, do you want to hold his hand or hug him whenever you're near him?" I wasn't sure how wanting to hug him means anything but I answered anyway "Well, sometimes Midoriya hugs me when we say hello but he also seems to do that with other people, I do sometimes want to hold his hand while we're walking together but I worry that it would make him uncomfortable" "eeee! I think you do like Deku! I have to tell the girls! Can I tell the girls? They can help me find out if Deku likes you back and we can set you up on a date!" I take a second to process what she said, did I want her to tell other people? I mean I do want to know if my feeling are returned... "Okay, you can tell the girls, just don't tell Midoriya unless you are 100% sure he also has feeling for me, and don't pressure him into answering anything" "Okay, I should get going now though, Deku's waiting for me" She leaves and I decide to do some studying.
