My Hero Academia Imagines

{Soulmate AU} First Impressions (Todoroki Shouto)

Todoroki Shouto:

"I just don't know." You pondered, looking over the selection of treats in front of you.

The summer sun beat down on you, the sweat of your brow shining in the light. In front of you was an ice cream vendor. The man waited patiently for you to choose your flavor, though the decision seemed to be hard to come by for you.

"Hurry up and choose (Name)-chan!" Mina puffed out her cheeks next to you.

She was already annoyed by your indecisive actions it appeared. She had been kind enough to invite her best friend from middle school to her class's beach trip today, but you were already making you both late.

Mina held her own cone, as it was her idea to grab an ice cream before meeting up with everyone else. Her pink skin was easy to spot among everyone, though the thing that always caught your eye was the small scribe on her wrist.

'She has cute horns'

The mark of meeting your soulmate, and their first thought of you. Mina had been lucky enough to meet hers in middle school. At the time a very awkward dark haired Kirishima Eijirou who shared classes with the both of you.

Though now he was much more social and red than he was in middle school. UA just seemed to do that to people, as Mina had also changed. She studied more and was slowly taking things much more seriously.

Though that was beside the point, everyone changes, even you.

"I'll do a scoop of vanilla and another of chocolate on a cone please." You smiled, both the man and Mina happy that you had finally decided on your flavor.

The man fulfilled your order and you happily took a satisfying and refreshing lick as you made your way towards where Mina was leading you. She scoffed playfully and nudged her shoulder against yours.

"Still the same indecisive (Name)-chan from before, huh?"

"I'm not indecisive, I just like having things more than one way."

"That makes no sense." Mina laughed, her arm playfully pushing you over, though not enough for you to lose your balance and slip in the sand.

However, what did cause you to slip over and eat the sand was the volleyball that had been aggressively hit and sent flying towards you and your friend. Lucky for Mina, the ball only hit you.

You groaned, and sat back up, brushing the sand off of you and trying to restabilize your vision. You had no idea who the hell spiked the ball with such a force, but they should try out for a professional team.

"Are you okay?"

You nodded and looked up, seeing the face of a boy you had seen on TV during UA's Sports Festival. He was Endeavor's son, a person born for greatness and heroics. However, at that moment those thoughts were not the first thing that came to your head.

Todoroki winced slightly, glancing down at his arm. In surprise, he saw some letters appearing on his skin as if they were being engraved on him from the sensation.

'He's much more handsome in person'

The child prodigy blushed slightly, turning to look down at the girl who he just realized was the person he was fated to be with for all his life. She was looking at her own wrist, reading the words he had related to her.

'I hope she doesn't have brain damage.'

He knew right away how terrible that marking was. Why couldn't he have thought something better? Hers was fairly sweet, if not flustering. Yet his bluntness had once again left him in a rather strange situation.

When she instead started laughing at her mark, he relaxed. Maybe she didn't care, or maybe she had lost it and could not believe her own bad luck today.

"Gosh, this will be quite the story." She breathed grabbing his outstretched hand and allowing him to help her up.

"I'm sorry about that, I didn't mean anything bad by it."

"I had hoped so. But yes, I think my head is fine."

Todoroki helped her to her feet, and you immediately wrapped him up in your arms, hugging him close. Todoroki stood frozen, unsure of what to do or what to say. Yet slowly, he returned the action and hugged you back.

He was soft and gentle as if he feared breaking you if he held you too much. Maybe he was just the silent awkward type? You didn't think of it anymore though, instead, you spoke to him again, your voice sincere and filled with joy.

"I'm so happy to have finally found you."
