Why can't you be mine?

Chapter 32

{Yaoyorozu's POV}

I didn't expect that all the confidence I had earlier would be gone in just one glance from the guy. I was confident that I would be able to talk and stay around Todoroki just like I used to but oh boy were things different. For goodness sake I can't even maintain proper eye contact with the guy. I know you might be thinking that things are going way to fast and I should've waited until I was completely over Todoroki before jumping onto a new guy but maybe this is how things were supposed to go and Todoroki and I were just never meant to be.

I mean to be honest, Iida isn't bad at all, actually one of the most decent guys in our year and a complete gentleman too but i'm not saying Todoroki isn't any of that because trust me, he is. Anyways, there's the engagement surprise party that's going to take place right after the actual proposal and surprisingly, i'm invited. "Todoroki, do you think your sister has any idea that Tensei is going to be proposing to her soon?" "Probably not but then again, my sister is great at having so many suspicions and most of the time, they end up happening"

I see Todoroki suddenly smile at the thought and realized how he must be really close to his sister. After all, I would assume that she was the only one who he would be able to confide in especially after knowing about his issues with him and his father. My parents, being in a hectic industry was able to grasp and learn some info about the Todoroki household one of which was the bad treatment the children received from their father, Endeavour. Some even thought they received bad treatment from the mom and that's where the scar came from.

"How'd you get that scar?" I ask, quickly covering up my mouth and internally crumbling in the inside. The question made him turn towards my direction in an instant and I really thought that he would get mad and start yelling but quite the opposite happened. His stoic reaction turned into a small smile followed by a quick nod. "Might as well tell the whole story. So to make things short and blunt, I was blessed with the most amazing father who married my mom just for the sake of a child with a good quirk. I was born. My mom hated my left side and poured boiling hot water on me"

"I'm sorry for asking" I apologized. "Don't be. I still love and care for my mom. I still visit her, you did too, remember?" "Right" I answer blushing and remembering the conversation I had with his mom. Sorry Mrs. Todoroki, I let you down and I never actually went for it. "I'll be going back to my dorm now, you should too. I don't think Jirou and Kaminari will be back for awhile" He says as he begins to stand and walk back to the direction of his dorm. I do the same and continue to walk back. I get ready for bed, phone in hand when I realized I had an unread message from Iida. 

"Hello Yaoyorozu, i'm sure you're really busy right now but I just wanted to let you know that my brother had decided to do the proposal tomorrow so be ready for it"

To which I answered with, "Why did he decide to move it to tomorrow and will do!"

"He claims that by the time he actually decides to propose, the nerves would have killed him by then"

"Wow, well, tell your brother that I wish him all the best and hope he gets a yes!"

"I'll make sure to tell him that and thank you"

I set my daily alarm before placing it on top of my night side table. 

~Time skip to morning~

Surprisingly, I wasn't woken up by the sound of my alarm but by my phone ringing. Jirou. It's a miracle that she's even awake at this time but what could she possibly want at this time of day. Well, there's only one way to find out.

"Hello?"

"Why are you still asleep?"

"I wake up in 5 minutes but somebody decided to steal that extra 5 minutes of sleep"

"Oh sorry but important news, Iida told the whole class this morning to get ready because the engagement party will happen this evening and since you weren't there yet, I just wanted to let you know"

"Oh he already told me yesterday through text"

A short silence erupted before I hear a silent mutter of, "Well someone's looking for an excuse to say something"

"What was that?"

"Oh nothing"

"Anyways, what are you doing up so early? You're literally never up this early should I inform the international news that you just made history?"

"Ha ha, very funny but no. Yesterday, Todoroki had requested if I could wake up earlier so we could talk about some things and that's basically the only reason I woke up so early today"

As much as I didn't want to feel what i'm currently feeling, hurt, I sucked it up and said in my most casual tone, "Oh what did you guys talk about? A second date~"

"Actually yeah. He invited me to be his date for the party tonight so there's that"

"Oh that's great. Well I have to get up and get read for the whole day ahead of me. See you later!"

"See you soon, girl"

Why couldn't Jirou fall for another guy and why couldn't Todoroki fall for another girl. This would make things much easier and I would be able to confide and tell Jirou about my current problems. I'm so dramatic, it's unreal. I did as I said and got ready for the day wearing a casual outfit that wouldn't take long to get ready in. Once done, I walked out and headed outside. And as if this day couldn't break my heart further, I looked to the hallway to find a scene that caused my heart to sink even further.

Jirou was pushed against the wall by none other than Mr. Icy Hot and cleary and surprisingly, Kaminari didn't mind he was just casually standing beside them clapping at the "move" Todoroki made. And so, not wanting to burst into flames or tears, any is possible at this point,(a/n this applies to my life too, it's sad) I casually walked out the door with a small and subtle smile on my face. Well Todoroki, if you want to play like that, then so be it.

The following chapters after this will be something that I actually look forward to writing because it's going to contain lots of drama, which I honestly live for. I mean come on, who doesn't like some damn tea? Oh and quick warning, for all you TodoMomo shippers out there, you may get really triggered about the next chapter or the one after it, just saying... Thanks for reading!
