Lost and Found

Chapter Four: Lies

Todoroki pov

"Rule number one: never go outside. Rule number two: don't use your phone unless it's to contact me. Rule number three: never scream for help..." Enji listed things for what seemed like forever. That is until he stopped to state one last thing. "If you ever do find yourself outside you can't reveal any scars that you got from me. No one cares about you or your well being so, you'll only trouble them by showing them your hideous body." He spat on my face before kicking me to the ground. That was the last full sentence that wasn't just random insults that my father ever said to me.

I see a big hand glide across my vision and a hand tugging at my shirt. I am not standing, I'm sitting on what appears to be Midoriya's lap which he was sitting on the bed. He must have moved me while I was spacing out. I remember now, he asked me to take off my shirt. I can't do that. Enji said it will be a burden to them and I got into a violent dispute with someone and I ended up with injuries making my body even more hideous. I need to stop spacing out and obey my deceased father.

"Sexual assault is defined as sexual contact with another person without that other person's consent. Consent is defined in section 273.1(1) as "the voluntary agreement of the complainant to engage in the sexual activity in question. Even if this action you are doing is not purposefully sexual in nature, it could be perceived that way. I would like you to let go before I press charges or call H.R." Midoriya looks at me in what I believe to be disbelief. The hand that had been trying to take off my shirt had lost its grip. I take this opportunity to get up and move to the far side of the room. By the time I'm there Midoriya has seemed to have processed what happened so I wait for him to speak.

"Are you really just going to blatantly try to hide your injury?" He found out and he sounds mad. I'll have to hear what he says and proceed from there. "And call H.R.? File a lawsuit? Are you kidding me? Katsuki and I are the leaders of a gang. What human resources? And a lawsuit against people with money and good lawyers? And here I thought you were logical. We have the upper ground. Or do you want to be jobless? Possibly even homeless? You haven't even signed a contract and you're already disobeying your employers, how sad." I was too absorbed in what he was saying to notice he was getting closer. Now I'm in a corner, quite literally. Great.

I open my mouth to speak lies about how I have hip osteoarthritis and how it will not hinder my work. Before I can even get a word out the door slams open to see a disappointed Bakugou with a bowel of what looks like cold soba. Midoriya surprisingly goes and sits on the bed without being told to by Bakugou. But his smirk says that he was plotting something but it does not concern me. Bakugou walks up to me and I'm spacing off into space again... this is not a good first impression. I look up at the very tall male to let him know I'm out of my trance. He looks sad for a split second only to furrow his eyebrows into his normal expression.

"Eat this, all. You're the skinniest person I've ever fucking seen. After that go to bed and we will go into detail about the job later... after breakfast." He practically yelled. But he wasn't wrong about me being skinny. All my muscles from school, for being a hero, my body decided to eat when bills took all my money and left nothing for food.

Before I can refuse I feel a new weight in my hands and see a bowel of my favorite food, cold soba. It seems pointless to refuse now so I scan the room. Nothing, no where to eat. I will just eat standing then. I pick up the chopsticks in the bowel with one hand and the bowel with the other. I hear what seems like a giggle but in a husky and low voice. I turn to the bed to see Bakugou on it now too but he isn't the owner of the giggle. I turn to Midoriya who now has his hand slightly covering his mouth as he stifles another giggle.

"It's just sooo cute~" I look around the room for the cat that seems to be brought up a lot in conversation. I see nothing but when I look at Midoriya he seems even more delighted then before. I'm choosing to ignore it and continuing to eat. The two tall males on the bed start talking to each other so I decide to calculate my financial situation.

I'm half way through but my head starts to cloud. My eyelids are slowly getting heavier. But I can't fall asleep now. Black clouds threaten to overtake my vision. A weight is lifted from my hands and I think I'm being carried. It's warm and smells nice.

"I'm sor-" The low voice fades as the black clouds win the fight for my vision.
