Todoroki One Shots

Expected or Unexpected?

Summary:

It starts as a normal school day, until Todoroki suddenly gets an unexpected phone call from the hospital where his mom is staying, while still in class. He asks to leave the classroom, only to get his request denied. As his phone keeps ringing, he has no other choice than to take it in the classroom, were everyone could hear his conversation.

They had been talking about quirks, what they were used for, how they became wide spread and what purpose they had.

Though Todoroki knew one thing.. the only purpose he had, aswell as his quirk, were to surpass All Might. Or atleast, that's what had been ingraved in his mind from a very young age. He didn't think of himself, as someone that people could care about. Infact he knew, that not even his own family cared about him. And yes, he knew that they cared about him to some extent, but he knew it wasn't going to last. Afterall, he had heard almost every painfull and pityfull word, leaving his own familys mouths. Words that were directed at him...

He knew things, that not even his own family were aware of. 

Afterall he had been there almost every time, that his family had chosen to talk about him, behind his back... especially when he were younger-

He had been around four at the time. It were a rainy day, raindrops landed on the windows, while making small 'thud' noises, which caused the house to seem empty, eventhough it wasn't. 

Small footsteps could be heared, as he tried walking as silently as possible, down the big empty hallway, trying to find his mom. 

His father had tried to train him ealier that day, but it didn't last long, as he had passed out from over excessive training. When he awoke later that day, he had been surprised to say the least, as he realised he still were in the training room. Normally his mom would of been there by now, or atleast had carried him to his room.

So he had decided to try and find her, as he had thought that something had happened to her. Which let to the next thing that happened;

As he stood outside his mothers room, he realised that voices could be heard coming from the other side. He didn't think much of it though, as it were pretty normal for his siblings, to visit their mother. And as he heard his mothers voice, a sudden feeling of relief washed over him. As the only thought going through his head were; Thank god, she's alright..

He were about to push the door open, asking his mom why she weren't there to help him, when the sound of his olderst brothers voice could be heard.

"Then why did you have him, mom? After what i've heard, you didn't want him in the first place. Aren't i right?" Touya? His heart dropped a bit, as his hand left the door. He didn't mean him.. right? His mother loved him.. didn't she? He were about to let a tear fall, but quickly remembered how his father, had called it weakness.

Ofcouse mom loves me. Afterall she says it all the time. He smiled as he tried convincing himself of the fact, that his mother hadn't meant him, he wiped the stray tear from his eye. But right as he had stopped the tears from falling, the next sentence leaving his mothers mouth, made his insides arch and a few tears fall down his cheeks.

"You're right Touya. But there isn't anything we can do. And Shoto.. will forever be your dads puppet"

His whole world crumbled before his eyes, as the only person he thought loved him, turned out to only want him gone. He tried listening, wanting to hear something. Anything. That would prove.. what would it prove? That he weren't a puppet? That his family actually loved him?
