TodorokiXReaderXKirishimaXBakugou- part 7

The sound of my phone screaming pulled me from a dreamless sleep. I peeled my eyes apart taking in my surroundings. The tv stood illuminating a title selection of some movie I didn't remember finishing. Light streamed in from the half open window.
"What the hell is that noise?" A sleepy yet angry voice groaned from under me. I yelped and landed roughly against the floor. I hadn't even realized I was laying across the blonde.
"Bakugou! We fell asleep!" I blurted out grabbing my phone. His eyes flew open and met mine.
" shit." He huffed rubbing his eyes and pulling his phone from his pocket. "I really have to go. My moms going to blow a fuse." I nodded tossing him his jacket.
"What are you going to-" I began and he waved my words away.
"I'll just say I crashed at kirishimas don't sweat it h20." Suddenly the nickname he'd given wasn't as insulting and almost felt slightly endearing spilling from his groggy lips.
I nodded and watched him disappear out the front of my apartment. My phone screamed in my hand and I pulled my eyes away from the door to it. Todorokis name spelled itself across the screen.
"Hello?" I answered trying not to sound as shaken up as I was.
"Can we talk in person?," todorokis voices calmed my pounding heart and I became all to aware of everything that happened. I hesitated in answering him. My mind flooded with so many emotions.
"I don't know if that's such a good idea." I breathed into the receiver and I felt a nervousness engulf me.
"(Y/n)," his voice poured into my senses like satin and my heart skipped a beat. "Please." Melancholy snaked it's self through his voice and my heart broke a little.
"Where do you want to meet?" The words flowed from my mouth before I could stop myself.

********TIME SKIP********

I sat fiddling uncomfortably with the straw sticking out of my plastic cup. The small coffee shop I sat in front of seemed rather vacant for a Saturday. The sun hid itself behind a few lingering clouds and the air was cool against my skin. I moved the ice in my drink around waiting. The boy I'd been so apprehensive to see sat across from me. An unsure look held itself to his gentle features.
"First of all I wanted to say I'm sorry for how I acted the other day," he began looking up from his drink. "I was mad and I wasn't thinking clearly. I want to know what happened, everything that happened." His eyes met mine and my heart thumped rapidly. "I know there's a lot going on with you right now but at least give me that." I swallowed hard thinking back over the last few days.
"Okay that's fair. " I started my voice shaking a bit. "I guess it really started that first night we ate with your dad. He just pointed out somethings that I should have already known." I hesitated watching his face.
"What did he say to you?" The question hung in the air a moment before I answered.
"That's not really important todo-" I began and he spoke softly over me.
"It matters to me and can you please just call me Shouto, the formality is bothering me." His eyes softened and I mustered up the courage to continue.
"Okay look, he said some stuff to me the first night and I moved passed it, I was a little unsure about coming over so I made plans with kirishima. I didn't want to make things worse for you. Then when you asked me again I wanted to. I honestly missed hanging out with you. And then.." my voice trailed away as I searched for what to say.
"And then I kissed you." He finished and I sighed. "I shouldn't have done that I'm-" He added and I spoke over him.
"No don't apologize for that. That's not why I left before you came back." I hesitated again and he leaned forward his eyes begging me to continue. "Your dad kind of noticed the kiss, and he wasn't very happy with me for it. So I left. I should have waited and told you goodbye so you didn't worry but I just-" todoroki shifted uneasily.
"What did he say to you? I want to know right now (y/n)." His voice sounded so stern and angry.
"He told me to stay away from you. That I was just distracting you from what you needed to be doing." I hesitated and I decided it better not to tell him everything he said. "So I was staying away. I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how. And then you showed up at my apartment and things looked so much worse than they were and you two got into it and I didn't know what to do."
"That's such bullshit." He spat chucking his empty cup into the trash. "I've been sitting here thinking it was because I kissed you. And it's not even my fault. If he ever says anything to you again I swear." He crosses his arms over his chest. "I thought I'd pushed you away because I pushed myself on you. I honestly came to apologize and check on you after but suddenly you were with bakugou. How'd that even happen?" My heart fluttered and I couldn't move my gaze from his.
"When I left your house I ended up at the beach, I'm not sure why but it was better than my house. I ran into him and he walked me home. Surprisingly he was a really good listener and I just needed someone to talk to."
I explained.
"You could have talked to me. You could have told me what was going on." He took a moment to calm himself. "I'm sorry I ignored you yesterday. I was just still so pissed off about you being with him I couldn't stand it. I shouldn't have done that and I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you." I apologized back adding my cup to the trash.
"If we've resolved that can I bring up something else that's bothering me?" He questioned and I gestured for him to continue "I heard you went to Mina's party last night." He began in a more hushed tone.
"Yeah I did. What's the have to do with anything?" Heat resonated in my cheeks and I looked down at the table between us.
"I also heard you took off after bakugou when he was leaving." He added his eyes tracing my face.
"What are you getting at?" A sick feeling pooled in the pit of my stomach. He shrugged.
"I just find it a little interesting. You two suddenly friends now?" He continued and I swallow.
"Yes we're friends." I paused watching him. "What are you wanting me to say Shouto?" I said the words harsher than I meant them pulling my eyes back to his.
"You two seem to be a little bit more than friends I'd say." His words were cold and I wasn't sure where this was all suddenly coming from.
"It's complicated." I breathed wanting nothing more than to remove myself from the situation. He cocked an eyebrow at me.
"Kind of like how we're complicated?" Hurt lingered behind his eyes and my heart ached.
"No that's different, you and I are different." I whispered not really sure how to explain it. "This is being taken out of context. Yes, I've been around bakugou lately but I don't see why it matters. Please Shouto I really don't want to fight with you." Tears welled up in my eyes and I turned away from him.
"I don't want to fight with you either." He paused thinking. "What if we just start over like all of this never happened, fair?"
"Fair." I answered turning back to him. Before either of us could say anything more his phone rang. His expression fell slightly as he picked it up. He spoke briefly with the person on the other line and then slid it back into his pocket.
"I'm sorry to end this here, but I really need to go." He gave me a soft smile. "Thank you for coming (y/n) it means a lot."

********TIME SKIP*******

I dropped onto my couch lazily letting out a heavy sigh. It was as though a weight had been lifted from my chest, and I was thankful todoroki had asked to talk. I tossed myself back starring up at the ceiling letting my mind wander. Bakugou's scent lingered on the couch and it pulled my mind to him. What even happened last night? Then there's this thing with todoroki and ugh why is life suddenly so complicated! Before my mind could stray any further I propped myself up. Maybe a run would clear my head. "Yeah a run would be good." I said out loud pulling myself together and heading to my bedroom to change.

*******MEANWHILE*******
(KIRISHIMAS POV)

"Dude come on we all know you like her? Just ask her out already?" The blonde on the other end of the phone encouraged. "Come on kirishima what's the worst that could happen?" He added after I hesitated to respond starring out my window.
"I don't know. It just doesn't feel manly to add any more pressure. I mean I don't wanna ruin-" my voice trailed away as the girl I was speaking of jogged effortlessly passed my window.
"Eh kirishima? You still there?" His words brought me back to reality.
"Yeah sorry, you won't believe who just ran passed my house." The smile in my voice was audible even to Kaminari on the other end of the line.
"Dude this is a sign! You have to ask her!" Courage began to build in the Depths of my stomach and I could hardly wipe the grin from my face.
"Kaminari I suddenly feel like a jog."
