Comfort.

You wipe your tears away feeling a little better after telling him what had happened at home and now you are not sure if you want to go back there or not. If only, just if only you attended the same school as him then life would've been easier for you.

"Sorry for taking up your time," you smile while sniffling.

Your nose and eyes were all red from crying so much. He gave you a cup of warm tea to calm you down. He was looking at you with worry filled in his eyes.

He put his hand on top of your head and ruffly you hair lightly as you drink your tea. He didn't know what to say since he's bad at soothing people but it didn't matter to you as long as he listens and you could see clearly how worried he looks.

"It's okay," he said, "I have all the time I need".

You let out a dry chuckle and take another sip of your drink. He silently watch you, all worn out, hair all messy from running and the dark circles under your eyes. If he could take you with him he would by now but he left home and stayed at the hostel not too long ago.

He sighed and held your hand noticing that it was already too late.

"Let's go, I'll send you home," he gave a small squeeze when he saw the fear in your eyes.

You look down to your lap knowing that you have no other choice.

You wanted to stay longer and he knew that too, he wanted you stay too but the school wouldn't be happy about it seeing a stranger staying overnight at the hostel.

He takes the empty cup and put it on the nearby table. He takes you by the hand and gently pulled you to leave his room, he didn't let go until you reached the entry. All eyes were on you two before you two left but Todoroki didn't mind at all the shocking look from his classmates, all he cared about was you.

It was a silent walk at that night, his hand was still holding yours. It felt warm and soothing but it's sad how that hand will let you go once you're home.

"Hey, If anything happens again, just call me and I'll come to you," he said without looking at you.

You felt your heart thumping inside your chest. Those lines that you always love hearing, you tighten your grip feeling happy but in such a sight you couldn't show it.

He stopped on his tracks and you stopped too. The surrounding was familiar and that's when you knew you are going to part ways again.

"Thank you," you said as you went to open the gate of your house.

"Wait," he said, turning your whole body to him.

He caresses your cheek with his hand, he was still worried about what might happen to you once you step foot inside your home. He moved his hand to your other cheek making you facing him.

It broke his heart, the bruise on your forehead and the dark circles under your eyes. You reminded him of his past. Worthless and helpless but yours was worst.

He presses his lips on the bruise of your forehead. You winced in pain and he apologized.

"Promise me you'll call," he said once again.

You nodded your head.

He gently put your head on his chest as he wraps his arms around your small fragile body.

You nuzzle your face on his chest as you've longed for this moment but little did you know, the front door was opened, a man in his 40s standing in the doorway, eyes glaring at you two for being lovey dovey.

Todoroki noticed and he made sure that you didn't see the man who hurted you. He was fuming on the inside. Eye to eye. Glare to glare.

If he could kill the man you called father.

He would.
