I guess you can say I've become friends with Todoroki.

I guess you can say we're getting along.

But, what if I can't tell him that the person who's texting him is me?

After all, I've lied to him so many times..
What would he think?

How can I say I love him if I can't even tell him the truth?

What if... I'll never be able to-

"(L/n)?"

I stop eating, "Huh?"

"Did you hear me? You didn't even move."

I shake my head, "Sorry, just a little distracted is all, what did you say again?"

Todoroki gets concerned, "Distracted about what? Your expression seemed a little sad too."

I flinch, "Nothing, that's all."

don't tell him.
not yet.

"Enough about me, what did you say earlier though?" I say, trying to change the topic.

"Are you sure nothing's wrong, (L/n)?"

No honorific?

"Enough with worrying already! Besides, what's with you not using honorifics now?"

He gets taken aback, putting his chopsticks to rest in the wooden bowl.

"We're friends, aren't we?"

I look, and then I giggle, "Oh! I forgot, it's just that was so sudden!"

I pick up my chopsticks and point them up, "I mean, I'd be fine with you calling me (y/n)-Chan, just my last name alone without an honorific sounds weird to me."

He slurps his soba, "I see. Well alright then, (y/n)-Chan."

I turn light pink, why is him just calling me by my first name so, fluffy?

I'm gonna melt.

"(Y/n)-Chan? Are you okay again?"

I snap out, "u-uh, yeah."

An idea pops up into my head.
