dormmates + tododeku

- part 4 -

Shoto woke up to see Izuku's bed empty.

At first, he was scared. Where was Izuku? But then he remembered that the smaller boy always takes a run in the morning.

He got up and started putting on his school shirt accompanied by the pants. The coat wasn't necessary so he decided not to wear it.

By the time he was putting on his shoes, Izuku came back.

"Oh hey Shoto! Can we walk together? I just have to get dressed really quick." Izuku said to him.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Izuku smiled and grabbed his uniform and went into the bathroom.

The feelings towards Izuku had been growing even bigger, suffocating him. The feelings of pain and loneliness filled him especially at night. Usually, he would go into their shared bathroom and think about it. One of the thoughts that came up often was how would he feel if these feelings kept on growing? How would that effect him? Did Izuku feel the same?

In fact he did, but Izuku didn't know it yet.

Shoto was fished out of his thoughts by the clicking of a door being unlocked and Izuku coming out of the bathroom. Seeing the boy with green hair every day, made it complete. Just him being there and talking to him while they do their homework or going out to cafés together.

Wait. Were those... Dates? No, Izuku didn't like him. A - and he didn't like Izuku! No, they weren't dates.

"Shoto? Are you okay?" The heterochromatic boy looked up to see concern across Izuku's face.

"Ahh, no. I'm okay, don't worry. Do you wanna go now?" He asked. "Oh yeah! Let's go!" Izuku said as he walked to get his key and opened up the door.

They walked down the road to school and finally got to class.

"Hey guys, what's up?" Eijirou spoke to them as they entered the classroom.

"Nothing much," Izuku said, smiling and turned to see Katsuki sitting in his chair, looking surprisingly happy. "What's up with Kacchan? Why is he so happy?"

"I dunno dude, he has been like that since yesterday. All we did was tutor me some more and I wasn't too great still... But hey! He's happier so that's good!" Eijirou looked extremely happy, his smile blinding everyone in the room.

"Hey hey hey! Everyone, settle down!" Present Mic said as he entered the room. "Today we are going to start a new project! You and your dormmate will be choosing a pro Hero to do a report on! Go to your partner and start brainstorming!" 

Shoto dragged his chair over to Izuku, the metal making a squeaking noise against the floor and stopped right next to the other boy. "So, what do you want to do?"

Izuku's face lit up. "Well, as you know, I love All Might so if you want to do him, we can. We could also do Present Mic, Aizawa, Hawks, Thirteen, you know, also one of the Wild Wild Pussycats! Like Ragdoll!"

"How about, we just do All Might." Shoto said, "That would be easy, since you know a lot about him. Also I think others have different favorites that they will pick."

"Sure! I would love to do him!" Izuku scribbled down All Might's name in his notebook with a slightly bitten pen, probably from Izuku getting stressed out sometimes.

The bell rang, signifying that the hour was over and everyone made their way to the next class. School went by like normal from then and on, and at the end of the day, Shoto waiting for Izuku to get out so they could walk together.

They talked about their project in Japanese like most of the other kids in their class and also traveled together to their dorm like most other dorm mates. From behind of Izuku, he could see Eijirou talking to Katsuki and also Tsuyu and Ochaco talking too.

They got to their room and got started on their project, but soon enough got distracted by sharing stories together.

"And just like that, I won!" Izuku laughed out. "Ah well, it looks like it's time to go to sleep. Goodnight Shoto!

"Goodnight Izuku." He said back and fell asleep.

But... Not for long.

A loud crack woke him up and he quickly activated his ice to freeze the intruder at three in the morning, but no intruder was found. Only a large crack on Izuku's wall and Izuku with his quirk on, whimpering.

Shoto debated getting out of bed since he didn't know what was happening, but a sob from Izuku got him up.

"Hey, hey Izuku, it's okay. It's just a bad dream." He spoke quietly to the crying boy. Shoto put his hand on top of Izuku's head and started to gently get his hair out of his face and played with it, trying to calm down Izuku. Two arms made themselves around Shoto's waist, pulling him closer. Shoto quietly panicked, not knowing if this was okay but but his arms around Izuku, still playing with his hair. With Izuku's head on his chest, he fell asleep.

But woke up again to the bright sun shining through his windows. He didn't even realize he was in Izuku's bed until he felt the other boys arms around him.

Quickly, Shoto panicked, untangling him limbs from Izuku's and climbing in his bed. He fell back asleep and waited for his alarm to go off again to go to school.
