¹⁸a prime instance

"Stay at your own damn house, Rin!"

The said girl burst into bouts of giggles as Shoto's older brother headlocked her, Fuyumi and Shoto watching from afar – one with a half worried and half amused smile, the other slightly annoyed as he held Rin's shoes in his hands.

They'd been lounging around his bedroom all day – Rin claiming that she liked being around him during the summer because Shoto instinctively lowered the temperature of any room they were in. It had turned into a routine for Rin to be around the Todoroki Household, Enji even coming home a few times to find Shoto and Rin messing around like they were kids again.

Like the other day when Enji had stumbled across Rin and Fuyumi baking cookies on Shoto's back, a tray on his bare back as he used his fire side to bake them.

"How about you stay at your dorm?" Rin teasingly retorted to the university student before screaming as he grabbed her by the waist and threw her over his shoulder.

"Be careful!" Fuyumi complained as she followed after Natsuo who carried Rin towards the door where Shoto waited.

Shoto reached for Rin as Natsuo lowered her to him, helping her down as she jokingly glared up at his older brother. The youngest Todoroki, despite finding their bickering time consuming, couldn't help but be endeared by how playful Rin and Natsuo were. It was like Natsuo finally got the younger sister he always wanted.

"Seriously though, let's get going." Shoto leaned down to tie the laces of her sneakers after she slipped them on. "That ice cream place you like is going to close soon."

Rin innocently gazed down at him, "you mean the ice cream place you like."

Shoto glared up at her as Natsuo and Fuyumi snickered from behind Rin.

"You like the ice cream place too." He snapped lightly.

"Ice cream is ice cream, I'll eat any kind." Rin shrugged, "don't act so high and mighty as if I'm the one who solely wants to go there."

It was true. Shoto had grown a major sweet tooth the more he hung around Rin.

Shoto purposefully pulled her laces too tight, making her burst out into laughter as she pretended to kick him.

"You are so childish," Fuyumi teased, directing the comment to both the teens.

"She is childish – I feel like I'm just babysitting her every time we're together." Shoto warped his older sister's words, Fuyumi lightly hitting his shoulder.

"She's older than you, don't be mean." Fuyumi reprimanded.

"Yeah, don't be mean to your hot, milf girlfriend." Rin and Fuyumi seemed to bounce jokes off each other; an unfortunate pair for Shoto.

"You're five months older than me, you're not a 'milf'." Natsuo and Rin cracked up hearing Shoto say 'milf' in his stoic tone.

Evidently, it hadn't been a quiet day in the Todoroki Household ever since Rin began hanging around.

"Alright, alright, get out of here you two." Natsuo shooed them out of the house, opening the front door. "If I see you at our house tomorrow, I'm getting a restraining order against you, Rin."

She scoffed, stepping out of the house. "As if that'll stop me. You can't get rid of me."

Shoto rolled his eyes, gently pushing her out of the way so he could leave the house.

"Mr Aizawa?"

Rin had walked into the living room, an empty ice cream cup in her hand and perspiring from the summer heat, to see possibly the worst case scenario: Her homeroom teacher and her father sitting on the couch having tea that late afternoon.
