Equilibrium (Todoroki x OC)

Chapter 13

Yami's POV

I got Todoroki to agree to sit next to me on the bus to an off-campus rescue exercise for our Basic Hero training class for today. It wasn't much effort for him to say yes, but it would be another thing that we both agree on.

"About earlier today at lunch, you wanted to speak to me about something?" I turned my head towards him, who was seated by the window.

"It's more of a conversation meant for privacy. How about after school? I'll walk you home and explain."

"Could you give me a small hint as to what it is?" I cocked my head in his direction, side eyeing him. He gave the same plain face as always.

"It's something I trust you with, and I think it's time for you to know." I retracted my head from him, giving some space. I looked at him with a stern eye and thought about his request for a little.

Then it clicked. Was it going to be about his past? I kept the assumption to myself and shook my head to get rid of the thoughts. I would have to see what it was about later on. It would be the only logical reasoning as to why he would want to speak to me in private and trust I won't say anything to anyone.

Hearing it made me a little relieved, it made me know that he trusted me with those kinds of things, or at least trust me in the first place.

"If we're talking about flashy quirks, it's got to be Bakugou, Todoroki and Mei." I heard my name and directed my attention to where it was said. Todoroki and I sat near the back of the bus, so it was a far reach to hear Kirishima in the distance talking about who has the most out there quirks.

"Eh, Bakugou seems too angry to become popular." Tsuyu commented and everyone's head followed hers to face the pointy blonde. Kaminari jumps in and agrees.

"Yeah, I got to say, his personality needs some work." He raised his arms and rested his palms behind his head, laying back in his seat.

Bakugou got up from his bus seat and began to curse everyone out, "Who the hell are you calling uncool???"

"See."

"I'LL BLOW YOU ALL UP TO PIECES!"

A little tired of Bakugou's attitude, I couldn't help but complain a little to Todoroki. "If we ever are put into groups for this training and I'm with Bakugou, just pray for me."

"I see no need, you confronted him before so you should be fine on your own without praise."

"I know, I know." I whispered, looking back at the angry kid who seemed to still be arguing with the class, "But one of these days he's going to make my head explode. And I don't mean literally."

"I was going to say that your logic wouldn't add up."

"I need to teach you about jokes Todoroki." I peered over at him, crossing my arms and my legs. My suit was comfortable but I still needed to get used to it. "You're too dense sometimes."

His face was still blank. I couldn't help but chuckle at his no reaction.

The bus came to a stop in front of the building where their training would take place. It looked like a large dome from the outside. "Alright kids, we're here. Everyone get off."

We followed Mr. Aizawa inside. The place was enormous and spacious. There were several gasps of shock as we all scanned the room that revealed different terrains that took up a section from the inside. It was a fascinating place.

"You must be class 1-A! Welcome to USJ!" A shorter person came up to Mr. Aizawa, they had an astronaut suit on, with a helmet that covered their face. "Some of you might know me, but for those who don't, my name's Thirteen! The famous rescue hero!"
