"Umm..was that Deku?" Todoroki looked up from the text messages at the sound of Uraraka's concerned but amused voice.

He nodded.

"He's so silly" Uraraka commented fondly, tapping a message into her phone. "I hope he feels better. Deku really wanted to see this movie with us"

Todoroki nodded again, reaching into his pocket to pull out his ticket. Midoriya had been jabbering for months about the movie: The Adventures of the All-Mighty All Might, and as fate would have it, he got sick the day of the premiere.

"Todoroki? Should we still see the movie without him?" Uraraka asked, tilting her head thoughtfully. "I would feel bad if he felt left out."

"He did say to enjoy the movie," Todoroki pointed out. "It would be a waste if none of us saw it."

Uraraka nodded hesitantly. "Yeah, that's true...We did pay for these tickets, after all..." She trailed off, looking conflicted, before seemingly making up her mind. "Yeah! Let's go enjoy this movie!"

After handing over their tickets to the ticket collector, they entered the main area. "Oh, popcorn!" Uraraka immediately zeroed in on the food stand, waving her arms excitedly. "And candy! What a great place to be!"

She grabbed Todoroki's arm before he could say anything and dragged him over to the line forming around the counter.

"They even have ice cream!"

Todoroki watched as she chattered excitedly about the wide variety of food options with mild interest.

It was strange to see someone so happy about something as trivial as the snacks that this movie theater offered, but it was amusing, to say the least.

As they got closer to the front of the line, she had picked her top three choices. "Popcorn, for sure. And an ice-cream? Maybe a soda! And--Oh" She immediately deflated.

He had been nodding absentmindedly, humming in acknowledgment as she spoke, but the sudden change in demeanor startled him.

"N-never mind. Let's just head in and get some good seats" she muttered sheepishly, eyes turned downcast. She started to walk away before realizing that Todoroki hadn't moved from his spot in line. "Todoroki?"

"What's wrong, Uraraka?" Todoroki asked blankly. "You really wanted the popcorn."

"I realized that it was just a tad expensive for me right now and I already paid for the movie ticket! Plus...I wasn't really that hungry anyways! So it's really fine and the movie's starting soon and all the good seats will be taken up and--"

She was cut off by his next action however

Todoroki stepped up to the counter and ordered. He returned with a large bucket of popcorn, an ice-cream cone, and a large can of soda. "Here you go" he said, passing her the popcorn and soda.

She recovered before she could drop the food, and hesitantly took a handful of popcorn. "Thank you," she responded, a bright smile slowly forming on her lips.

He nodded lightly, taking a sip of his soda.

It was a nice smile, after all.

As the pair entered the darkened theater and took their seats, he couldn't help but watch her happily consume the bucket of popcorn cone out of the corner of his grey eye. He hadn't known about her financial situation before, nor had he really paid much attention to her personal life. It was odd realizing that he didn't know Uraraka very well despite eating lunch and doing homework with her, Midoriya, and Iida everyday.

But in that moment, when she was rambling out of nervousness and disappointment, he felt the urge to lift her darkened mood.

As much as he disliked using his dad's money, there were perks with having his dad as the number one hero, so money had never really been a problem for him growing up, anyways. She brightened up after he bought her all that junk food, and the sight of her smile was glued to his mind for hours.

He was snapped out of his thoughts when a bucket of popcorn bumped the side of his head. He instinctively grabbed it before it could float away, turning to raise an eyebrow at Uraraka. She smiled sheepishly, her hands full with the soda and bucket of popcorn "Sorry," she peered at him with a lopsided grin, looking guilty.

"I tried to hold them all at once."

He shook his head, amused, before turning back to the movie.

It was nice getting to know her a little better
