A/N: I love both Hamilton and BNHA so I decided to combine them. Was I successful? Who knows! (Probably not). I do not own My Hero Academia or Hamilton.
He didn't really seem to know how to hold your hand, you recalled, thinking of when you and Shoto had first begun dating. He always seemed so nervous, holding your hand as if it were fragile glass that would break if he held it too tightly. As if he was afraid to hold your hand.
Until he met you at U.A., Todoroki Shoto had lived a life devoid of affection or physical contact. After falling hopelessly in love with you during the hero course, he had confessed. Returning his feelings, you had happily accepted, signaling the start of a beautiful relationship that would not be without its trials.
Expressing his love through physical contact proved difficult for Shoto. Hugs were short and stiff, hand-holding was awkward, and kisses were nonexistent. When Shoto had told you how upset he was with himself for not being able to comfortably perform such simple acts of affection, you had given him the most loving, understanding smile he had ever seen and assured him that the two of you would slowly but surely work on it.
You'd figure it out. Together.
What he hadn't realized as you comforted him was that you had reached out and held his hand and, subconsciously, he held yours back.
What Shoto lacked in physical contact he tried to make up for in small acts of love. Occasionally, you would receive notes and letters reminding you of his love and letting you know how much he treasured having you by his side. These never failed to brighten your day and Shoto always earned a kiss after delivering one to you, causing the calm and collected Todoroki Shoto to turn into a blushing, flustered, adorable mess as you smiled and told him you loved him too.
Dates were always comfortable and sweet and as Shoto became more comfortable with affectionate contact, they got even better, usually ending in cuddling and loving kisses.
After years of dating and falling deeper and deeper in love with you, Shoto had naturally proposed. When you joyfully accepted, tears of happiness falling down your cheeks, Shoto picked you up and spun you around, a dazzling smile on his face all the while. Setting you down, he had kissed you happily, the both of you murmuring "I love you's" between kisses.
Which leads you to now. Todoroki (y/n), the pregnant wife of Todoroki Shoto.
After him being away for a month doing hero work, you were more than ready for your sweet, icy-hot husband to come home. You had found out you were pregnant a week after he left and were waiting for him to come home so you could tell him the news in person.
You sighed and rubbed your not-yet-showing stomach, admiring the beautiful day outside from your kitchen window and waiting for Shoto, who would be home from his trip any minute.
After waiting a little while longer, you spotted Shoto's red and white hair as he walked up the street to your house. Throwing open the door, you ran to the gate and leaned over, waving to him. Seeing you, Shoto smiled and broke into a run. You opened the gate and were immediately lifted into a tight hug. Giggling, you gently cupped Shoto's face in your hands and gave him a long, sweet kiss.
"Welcome home!" His smile widened in response to your enthusiasm.
"Thanks. Now what's this important news you need to tell me? You sounded like you weren't feeling well when I called you this morning. Is something wrong? Are you okay?" You couldn't help but smile at your husband's concern.
"Nothing's wrong. I'm just pregnant." Instead of prolonging it, you decided to just bluntly tell him, though you couldn't help but wonder if you should've said it more gently as Shoto froze.
After a moment of staring at you, eyes wide with surprise, he blinked.
"What?"
"I'm pregnant," you repeated.
"H-How..." He gulped visibly. "How long have you known?"
"About a month or so."
"You should've told me earlier."
"I'm not sorry," you replied cheekily.
"You're pregnant...with our baby." Now you were getting worried. He looked like he was about to pass out. Taking his hand, you led him to sit on a nearby bench.
"(y/n)." He grasped your hand tightly, looking at you with a scared, desperate expression.
"(y/n), what if I'm a bad father? What if I turn out like -"
"Shoto, I can say with complete surety that you won't become like your father," you interrupted. "I know who I married," you said, the conviction in your voice strong. "I married someone kind and sweet who would never in a million years even think of abusing his child. You may not have had the kind of father you should've, but now you know what to avoid and you'll be the better father because of it."
"What if I accidentally neglect you and the baby because of my hero work? What if I put the two of you in danger? You would relish being the wife of that sort of man, unable to give you a life completely free of danger?"
"I would relish being your wife. As long as you come home at the end of the day, that would be enough. I know the danger that comes with working as a hero, but don't forget that I'm a powerful hero myself. Between the both of us I'm certain we'll be able to keep our child safe. Have faith in me, have faith in us, and we'll be okay."
He raised your entwined hands, kissing your's tenderly. When he met your eyes, you could see the calm replacing the panic.
"We'll figure it out. Together."
"That's right!" You couldn't help but smile widely as he quoted what you'd said all those years ago. "And that'll be enough!"
Leaning forward, Shoto pressed his forehead against yours for a moment before going in for a loving kiss.
As the two of you kissed, Shoto couldn't help but reflect on how lucky he was to have you and the future you had given him.
