Found Paradise In Hell : Resident Evil AU (Todoroki Shoto X Reader)

Chapter 6 : To Risk Or Not To Risk?

Day 1 Activities for Camp

It was 3:30 in the afternoon, in the morning it was extremely wet and cold, now in the afternoon, it was so hot and dry. 'Fuck you weather! You're going to give me a headache with all your bullshit!' Currently, my class is hanging out at the shooting range.

The 2 umbrella soldiers that I saw just this morning, who were guarding this area weren't anywhere to be found. Aizawa-sensei said that they were called somewhere or something along those lines.

For some odd reason, sensei didn't at all care whilst he watched us try to hit some of the targets with BB guns or paintball guns. Usually, he'd scold us and let us do a safer activity. The heat must be getting to him, he may be already sick.

'Let's just not question it. We don't usually get to have this much fun.' I thought to myself mischievously, watching Kaminari trying to show off to the girls how to properly use a paintball gun when in fact he didn't even know how to properly use it himself, Iida being so uptight was currently in the process of reprimanding him.

"C'mon Iida-kun! Don't be such a killjoy! We're just having fun and don't worry the gun's safety pin is on." I spoke in a sing-song voice, draping one arm around his shoulders.
"It is still not proper! We shouldn't even be here! Kaminari, stop that! You're going to take someone's eye out!"

Pushing off my arm from his shoulders, he marched toward the blonde boy, grabbing the gun from the boy's hand, he began to scold and reprimand him. Kaminari in turn began to protest, saying things like, I wasn't doing anything wrong.

"Sensei! Will you please let the class know that it isn't okay for them to be using guns!" Iida on the verge of ripping his hair out in frustration called out desperately.
Sensei from out of nowhere pulled out his favorite yellow sleeping bag and jumped into it, "Do whatever you want, just don't bother me, be careful and don't kill yourselves or injure your peers. I'm going to sleep."
"See, even sensei's fine with it!" Mina backed up Kaminari

I now sat beside Shoto, leaning against a tree, reading some manga. We weren't that far from everyone else, but far enough that their screams could be easily tuned out. Even if it was hot, I leaned my body onto his and laid my head on his.

He didn't seem to mind it though since he didn't complain or anything, instead he hummed a nameless tune. Glancing at the book he was reading for a second, I became amused. Usually one would think that he reads classical literature and certainly not manga.

"Are you sure you're alright, love?" My eyes drifted into his, my breath hitching at how intensely he was looking at me in concern.
"Y-Yeah. Of course, I'm alright, what gives you the idea that I'm not?" Looking away, I cursed myself internally for stuttering
"You have been acting strange ever since this trip, starting from the boat. If it's about your past, I completely understand. Don't ever feel guilty about it." Closing his book and letting it rest on his lap, he placed his right hand over my cheek, forcing me to look at him.
Sighing defeatedly, I began to confess as there was no point in hiding my true feelings from him, "I should tell you about it, it's important and it could affect our future. But I know that I'm not ready to tell you... I'm scared of it honestly. I'm scared... That you'll hate me for it..."
His eyes widened slightly in surprise then reverted to his calm expression because he knew he needed to be strong for me, "Oh, love..." Pausing for a second trying to find the correct words, "Your past is in the past, we can't do anything to change that. I accept you as you've accepted me and that includes all the good and bad. Whatever your past is, we'll figure it out together like we always do. I'll be by your side through thick and thin. So I will never hate you for your past." He finished, his voice a bit breathy as though he, himself wasn't sure whether his words were right or not.
Staying quiet for a while, hesitant about my next moves and words, "... Thank you, you don't know how much I'm grateful for those words..."
