Todoroki x Reader

part 9

" Todoroki. " I said, tugging on the sleeve of Todoroki's jacket.

" Todoroki. " I repeated, poking his cheek multiple times. Still no response.

" Todo. " I said. His head snapped towards me, his cheeks slightly red from the nickname.

" What? " He said, completely clueless I rolled my eyes playfully.

" Well, you were daydreaming and we passed that cute little noodle shop.. I was hoping we could go there. " I said.

" Do they have soba? " Todoroki asked, squinting at the shop as if he would see right through the walls and find a legendary soba bowl just waiting for him.

" Yup! I have never been there before, but I heard that they have some really good soba from Deku." I said, smiling. His eyes seemed to light up.

" You seem excited, so let's go, Todo! " I said, smirking at the little rhyme. I tugged on his wrist gently, and he appeared at my side.

I started walking to the noodle shop, opening the door and holding it open. He walked in and I followed after him, letting the door close on its own.

A man, around 20 or so, maybe younger, waved at us as we looked around. The place really wasn't that popular, and only a couple people were seated. It was also a little bit late so most of the people that were here had already left.

" Hello! Can I get the sesame udon noodles and uhh.. He would like the chicken soba noodles.  " I said, feeling like a mother ordering for her young child. The man nodded, smiling at me, not paying any attention to Todoroki.

" Coming right up! " He said, winking at me. I could feel Todoroki's arm wrap around my shoulder, pulling me closer to him.

My face turned almost completely red, and I put my hand on his which rested on my shoulder. It was almost an instinct of mine.

" She's taken by me. " Todoroki said, and the man's eyebrows went up.

" Huh. Alright, alright. " The man said, shaking his head and putting his hands up in defence. He then walked into the kitchen.

" Umm.. Todo? " I said. Todoroki hummed in response, sitting down at a table. I sat next to him.

" Why did you say that? " I asked him. He looked away for a second, then looked back at me.

" Sorry if I made you uncomfortable. I didn't really think his intentions were too good though. " He said. I nodded.

" Someone cares about me~ " I purred, bouncing my eyebrows up and down. His cheeks turned pink slightly. He still kept his composure though.

" Yeah, I do. " He said. Now my face was back to being red as a pepper.

" Wait, what, why?! " I said, covering my face and parting my fingers to look at Todoroki.

" I really don't know. I kind of just feel like your special, like you were sent to me by an angel or something like that. " He mumbled. I closed my eyes, trying not to laugh at him because what he said was really sweet but.. Very, very corny.

" My god Todoroki, I didn't know you made jokes! " I said, giggling and patting his arm.

" I'm serious! Your like a guardian angel! " He said, making me laugh even harder.

" Okay, okay, you found me out. You know, one day God was just like.. Oh! [ name! ] go save that young man! Be his guardian angel! " I said, and he covered his face.

" You are too much. " He mumbled into his hands. I gently poked his hands.

" Todoroki. Todoroki. Todoroki. Don't cover your beautiful face. " I said, only half joking. He mumbled something incoherent and buried his face farther into his hands.

" I'll eat your soba. " I warned. He lifted his red face from his hands, glaring at me.

" You wouldn't. "

" I would. "

" You wouldn't. "

" I would. "

" You wouldn't. "

" I would. "

" You wouldn't. "

" I wouldn't. "

He pointed at me, and I covered my mouth with one hand the other pushing him away playfully.

" I hate you. " I said. He got up, causing me to tilt my head to the side.

" Guess you won't mind me leaving then. " He said, starting to walk off. I practically jumped out of my chair, wrapping my arms around him from behind, nuzzling my face into his warm back.

" Nooooo.. Don't leave me, Todoroki. Please. I need you. " I said. He turned around, wrapping his arms around me and resting his chin on the top of my head.

" I wouldn't, I promise. No matter what happens, I will never leave your side. " He said, and I looked up at him, my chin pressed against his chest. A wide grin was spread across my face.

" Alright. Pinky promise? " I said, pulling away and putting my pinky up. He smiled a little bit.

" Your so childish. " He said, linking his pinky with mine. I just giggled in response, pulling my hand away from his and jumping onto my chair. He sat next to me, looking at me.

Our food was out soon after, and I almost immediately was slurping up my noodles. Todoroki gave me a weird look.

" You sure love udon. " He said. I coughed as I felt the weird sensation of one of the noodles halfway down my throat.

" Oh, yeah. I love udon, but you know the best thing about it? When it just hangs halfway in my mouth, halfway down my throat. That's so fun. " I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm. He stuffed his face with his soba.

Their was a comfortable silence as we ate, focusing on our food and barely looking up. Still, we both knew that we were thinking about each other.

I sighed, pulling away from my food and messing with a couple stands of my hair.

" [ name. ] Are you fine? " Todoroki said, laying a hand on my shoulder. I pushed his hand off gently.

" Yeah. I'm just really tired. " I said. He nodded, standing up and pushing his chair in.

" Then let's go. We have spent enough time here. " He said. I got up, pulling enough money to pay for our meals out of my pocket.

" Are you sure you want to pay? " He asked me, pointing at the money.

" Yeah. It's fine. " I said, walking up to the man and slapping the money on the desk with a roll of my [ eye color ] eyes.

" Let's head home. " I said, walking out the doors and looking back at Todoroki.

                                                ........

I opened the door, mumbling a small ' goodnight ' to Todoroki before closing my door. I stared at the cabinet, pushing my body off the wall and opening the top drawer.

It was empty besides for a couple thing. knifes.  I had multiple, only getting rid of one to make sure that Todoroki didn't worry.

I flipped it open, the refreshing sound of the blade cutting the air causing a small sigh to escape from my lips.

I pulled down my sleeve, hesitating as I lowered the open pocket knife to my pale skin.

Todoroki. The name swirled in my mind, and soon tears were streaming down my face as I threw the knife across the room, hitting the wall before falling to the ground.

I slowly slid down the wall, bringing my knees to my chest as I sobbed. I'm sorry, Todoroki.

Note

I am sorry for the short chapter. I have a lot going on in my life right now, and I have been really stressed.

I will apologize in advance for any further chapters that may suck or are short. Just remember I have a life and I don't just stay home and write stories all day.
