"H-Hey Shoto!" You call out on the street away from the school. It was the day before final exams and school had just been let out fir the day. "Oh, Hello Y/n. You seem more anxious than usual today?"

"O-Oh what m-makes you say th-that?"
"Hmmm I dunno, maybe the fact you usually don't stutter this much around me. Not to mention Bakugo, its been even worse around him."

"Welp, I guess you caught me..." You stop in your spot staring at the ground with your arms holding onto each other. "Y/n" Todoroki says and you look up to see him with his arms outstretched his head turned to the right with a hint of a blush on his cheeks. There was a decent distance between the two of you and your cheeks turn read you walk into his open arms, ending up tripping and falling into his arms. He catches you in a hug and slowly but surely tears start to fall down your cheeks. "I-I'm so nervous Sh-Shoto! I-I don't want to be the o-only kid from our c-class not at the training camp. I-I r-really don't w-want to fall behind a-again!"

"Don't be worried Y/n, you are a very intelligent girl, the smartest in the class. Not to mention how you know how to adapt to any situation with your quirk"

"B-But what if it becomes a p-partner practical. A-and I'm not with y-you or Katsuki, I don't know how to work well with the other students..."

"You can say anything you are worried about and I will contradict it but thats not gonna change your anxiety" Not knowing how to respond you just sit there in the hug while Todoroki pulls out his phone and adds what you think is your contact to a group chat.

Todoroki: Y/n is really nervous for the test

Yaoyorozu: Why? She is a very talented girl and should have nothing to worry about

Uraraka: Oh no! Why is she worried?

Iida: I'm sure she'll do just fine. It's probably just normal test jitters

Kaminari: Amajiki you have no reason to worry! I'm sure you'll do amazing!
We all will

Todoroki: She's nervous It'll be in partners and she won't work well with
everyone else

Midoriya: Well that makes sense, of course she's worried!

Jiro: Why are we talking about Y/n like she's some helpless child, Todoroki
added her to the chat idiots. Y/n you'll do fine, this whole class is a team and
you are apart of it. Don't worry!

Ashido: Yeah! You got this Y/n!

Uraraka: Kyoka's right! She's stronger than even Bakugo at times! You got
this girl!

Bakugo: Pink Cheeks I'm gonna kil you for that! But yeah Y/n, tell ur brain to
shut up, you'll do fine.

"Y/n, look at your phone." Todoroki says and the silent tears slow down to a stop. You pull your phone out of your pocket stepping away from Todoroki's hug. You slowly start to smile and Todoroki watched you his eyes shining with a smile even though his face was blank. You type out a quick thank you message to everyone. The last few tears drip down your face, and you start walking as Todoroki moves to your side. "Thank you Shoto." The corner of his lip turned up into a slight side smile as he looks straight ahead. "Want to eat dinner at my house tonight?" You ask when you arrive at your door step. "I guess I can do that for you"
