You were liking him more and more each day. Everyday, he would toss you your favorite drink from the cafeteria. It always brought a faint smile to your face. Apart from Uraraka's witty remarks, everything seemed to have gotten better.

You too were seeing him in a different light. Prior to the turn of events that altered your life, you saw him as a contemptibly obnoxious person.

How did your wish eventuate to such a significant change between the two of you? That, you did not know. Was it fate? Please, you don't believe in such an absurd thing.

You were once peeved that the gods misapprehended your lament. Now you felt grateful.

               ———

You gazed at his features and his tall and fit frame that seemed to be approaching you. His right hand gripped your favorite drink.
He was at it again.

"Hey, (Y/N)," he addressed, "catch."

And with that, he tossed your drink. You caught it with such admirable ease. His eyes glistened.

"Thanks, Todoroki," you expressed your gratitude and waved the drink in your hand as you departed.

With your back facing him, it impeded him from seeing your jovial and buoyant countenance. But even just hearing the flavor in your voice, he could tell you were at least pleased.

               ———

"How's school nowadays, missy?" your mother asked, feeling euphoria since she was finally home.

It was supper. Your family sat at the dining table, all five seats occupied. They scarfed down their meals while you looked at what was taking place in front of you in awe.

"It's great! I made a new friend."

Your answer piqued her interest and she was now all ears.

"His name is Todoroki Shouto," you added.

Never in your life you would have thought you would utter those words.

"Well, I'm glad."

You poked at your food, too exhilarated to sit still. Your mother eyed you inquisitively.

"Is something the matter? Why won't you eat your food?" she questioned, slightly narrowing her eyes.

"I guess I'm not that hungry," you elucidated.

"She's just hungry for Todoroki," your younger sibling chortled and the latter joined in the former's shenanigans.

"You do not speak to me like that, you little rascals! I'm older!" You retort, putting them in their place.

               ———

You headed to bed, thinking of your family and the guy with an innermost personality as beautiful as his face. How did this come to be? For all you knew, your situation that arose seemed unforeseen.

               ———
It seems like more and more are viewing this story! Hello there!
I am currently on Easter break. I can finally sleep in! But that aside, I still need to fix my sleeping schedule.
Anyway, I'm excited to play Cheritz's new game, "The Ssum"! It will be out soon! Hopefully it comes out at the same time for apple and android users!
(I am well aware this is short. Please bear with me!)
