I keep Shoto in his dorm for days as I take care of him. His fever slowly eases. One day he walks out of bed up to me while I'm in the kitchen fixing him a cup of tea.
"Hey (Y/N). I'm feeling so much better."
"I'm so glad to hear that."
"It's really all thanks to you. If it hadn't been for you, I probably would've continued to go to class and gotten worse."
"That's true."
"But really though. Thank you. For everything you've done for me."
"You're more than welcome Todoroki. Here. Let me feel your forehead again. Hmm. You're not as warm as the first day. You're definitely getting better. But I do think you should rest for at least one more day. I don't want your fever to go up and you have to keep resting."
"I understand."
"Now. Go back to bed. I'll be right in. I'm just gonna finish your tea here."
"Okay." He plants a gentle kiss on my cheek. I feel myself blush. He kissed me again. I'm not sure what to make of it.
I walk back to his bed and hand him his tea.
"Here. This should do the trick and finally get you to kick this cold to the curb."
"Thank you. Seriously. For taking care of me."
"Don't mention it. This is what best friends do. They take care of each other."
"You're really sweet. You're a good friend."
I find myself blushing again.
"Is something wrong? Your cheeks are turning bright red."
"Huh? Uh... Oh. No. Nothing's wrong. I promise. I'm just a little warm. It's warm in here. You mind if I turn down the thermostat a little bit?"
"It's only 68-degrees in here."
"Oh. Really? Would you mind if I stepped into the hall for a minute? I just need some air."
"Oh. Sure."
"Thanks. I'll be back."
I call up Uraraka.
OU: Hello?
Y/N: Hey. You know how I've been taking care of Todoroki for the last few days?
OU: Yeah
Y/N: Well, he kissed my cheek today and he's been saying how kind and sweet I am. I can't help blushing every time. I swear if he wasn't so blind he would've caught on that I like him Uraraka.
OU: And that would be a problem, why?
Y/N: Well, it's too soon. I don't want to make anything weird between us or lose his friendship. What do I do?
OU: Just do what you think is best. Just trust yourself. Trust him. Everything is gonna be fine. Trust me on that okay?
Y/N: *sigh* Okay. I will. Thanks, Uraraka.
OU: No problem. Now you should probably get back to him. He might be wondering where you are.
Y/N: Okay. Thanks again. Talk later.I finish the call and hang up. I go back into the room. Cool, calm, and collected.
"Hey. Everything alright?"
"Yeah. I just needed a second. I'm okay though. Promise."
"Okay. Good. Anyways, would you want to watch a movie or something? We don't have classes today. It might be fun."
"Sure. We can do that. Pick out whatever you want. You're sick. You get to make the rules."
"No, no, no. You've done more than enough for me. You pick something. I'll watch whatever you want."
"Are you sure? I mean, I want you to feel comfortable and feel better quickly."
"I'm sure (Y/N). You've been doing so much for me these last few days. I want you to pick something out for us to watch. Anything you want."
"You really don't have to do this."
"Would you stop with that? You pick. That's final."
"Alright. Alright. Fine. Since you won't stop insisting."
"Yes. I win."
"Oh shush."
I pick something out and the two of us watch it together. At least until Shoto falls asleep, head in my lap. I can't help but blush. My crush has his head in MY lap. I stroke his hair as I continue to watch the movie until it's over.
Unfortunately, I start to feel drowsy myself. My eyelids become heavy. I yawn as I stretch. Eventually, I don't notice it, but I slink down into the bed. I feel something on my lower abdomen but I don't really care what it is. I'm so tired that I end up falling asleep.
The next morning I wake up to see Shoto Todoroki's head on my chest. I don't want to scream so I try to sit up without waking him. But he wakes up anyway.
"Oh. Uh... Morning."
"You're still here?"
"Yeah. I guess I must've fallen asleep last night after the movie. I must've been tired. I really didn't mean to fall asleep with you."
"It's not really a problem if you were tired. I understand that. Training has been exhausting lately. Especially since the teachers and staff have been beefing up security since the villain attack at the USJ. Remember that?"
"Do I ever? That was insane. I'm just glad that Iida was able to get the other teachers to the USJ and that the villains left. I was terrified."
"You were? I had no idea."
"Yeah. I tried my best to hide it by putting on a brave face and using my quirk against them. But I was so scared. I was scared shitless."
"Wow. I had no idea."
"Yeah. Not many people do. I don't like to talk about it."
"I understand. I know that can be hard. And maybe embarrassing."
"Yeah."
"Thank you for trusting me with that."
"Yeah. Just, don't tell anyone okay? Promise?"
"Of course, I promise. What kind of friend would I be if I told people your secret? You haven't told anyone about mine regarding my father. So why would I tell anyone about how you were scared when the villains attacked?"
I chuckle. "I guess you're right. Thank you Todo. You really are a great friend."
"That's what I'm here for."
