Todoroki has always had a problem with reacting to things. Due to his past he isn't able to react like a normal person would to a joke or to a confession.
Even then, somehow, love has its ways.

Todoroki laid on his bed as he waited for Bakugo to text him the location, to a restaurant. So many thoughts were swirling through his head. He couldn't understand why he wanted Bakugo to touch him again, it was driving him insane. Ever since Todoroki was little, the only thing he was taught was how to use his quirk and school topics. He knew nothing about being intimate with someone.
The person he least expected to teach him has taught him. Suddenly, Todoroki's phone made a loud noise. It was his ring tone. Todoroki quickly grabbed his phone. Bakugo had just texted him the location. Todoroki quickly put on his coat for the cold weather and ran outside. He walked quickly along the sidewalk to get to the restaurant.
Finally, he could see Bakugo standing there, in front of the restaurant waiting for him. Todoroki smiled softly, walking up to him. Once he got to him they kissed each other.

The hot breath the two made faded out into the world around them. Todoroki pulled away from the kiss, slowly. "I'm gonna make sure you get your soba tonight." Bakugo announced, winking at him. Todoroki laughed a bit. Bakugo always seems to be put off guard when he does this.
Bakugo smiled caressing his face, causing Todoroki to stop laughing, and stare at Bakugo in awe. "Let's go!" Bakugo said, taking hold of Todoroki's hand. Was it strange that such a crisis brought the two together? Going out for soba is one thing but almost dying in the arms of the one you love is something else.
Once the two went in they ordered their food and talked about their life. Bakugo mainly talked about how Midorya annoyed him or how his mother would always expect more from him but Todoroki listened to everything. No matter how outlandish it got, he listened. Bakugo, for the first time in his life felt heard. No one would ever really listen to Bakugo's shenanigans, but Todoroki took it so seriously. He wasn't doing this before so what made him now?
He wanted to understand where Bakugo came from, when talking all this crap about everyone. He wanted to understand him. "Deku always treated me like I needed help.. Like I was weak." Bakugo muttered. "I doubt that he actually thought you were weak. If I saw you fall I wouldn't try and help you up because you're weak, Bakugo, but because I care for you." Todoroki explained. "I don't care if it's the respectable thing to do! I know he thinks I'm weak, I can see it in the nerd's eyes." Bakugo said in anger.
"Midorya isn't like that. Trust me, he doesn't think that of you. Why not try asking him what he thinks?" Todoroki recommended. Bakugo thought for a moment. "That's.. That's not the worst idea." Bakugo said still thinking about how Midorya could respond. "And what about the hag? Why is she so damn demanding of me?!" Bakugo asked as if Todoroki could be the answer to all of his problems. "Maybe she doesn't realize how much pressure she's putting on you? I'm not sure.. Maybe it's how she was raised." Todoroki explained.
"You're like a book with definitions for everything!" Bakugo said, pointing to Todoroki. "You mean a dictionary?" Todoroki asked with a blank face. "You just proved my point even more." Bakugo laughed. Todoroki felt his face heat up as he stared at Bakugo.
