The Music in Us

Chapter Five

Todoroki's POV

Izuku and I went back to my house after we were done at Shinsou's. He had gotten a text pretty late at night, but I didn't question it. It wasn't my place to meddle.

We woke up the next day, Sunday (ugh) and just hung around the house. We talked with my mom a lot, and she told Izu a few embarrassing stories from when I was younger. You know, I just kinda wanted to die.

We started writing a new song, and I think it's gonna be way different than the one Izu and Tsuyu both have made. I think it's going to be way more upbeat. I like more upbeat though, so I'm good with that!

Izu seemed a little off during the day. It wasn't noticeable to mom, but it was to me. Though, if he wants to talk about it with me, then he'll come to me. I don't want to pressure him to talk, unless I think he or someone else is in danger, then I will, but I don't think anyone is. I'm not getting The Tingles.

We went up to my room again a hour ago, and we've both just been on our phones, with the TV in my room playing random music from my playlists. We would show each other some stuff we found, but we aren't  really talking. So peaceful...

"Todo?"

"Yes?"

"Can I tell you something?"

I turn my phone off and face him, so I'm laying on my side; him doing the same.

"Sure, babe. What is it?"

"Well, I don't even know if I should tell you, but I feel like I should," He looks a little uncertain and is making a funny face while doing it.

I chuckle a little and push his hair out of his face. "You can't tell me you want to say something to me but not say it!" I softly exclaim while smiling. "I'm kidding, babe. If you don't want to or don't think you should say something, then you don't have to."

He giggles, putting his hands in my two-colored hair and kisses me softly. "You're amazing."

"I know."

"And cocky."

"I know."

"And damn proud."

I hum. "Only proud cause I was able to get someone as beautiful inside and out like  you as a boyfriend."

He blushes and shakes his head while smiling. "You're so cheesy, you know that Todoroki?"

"I do indeed, Midoriya."

He sighs. "I'm going to tell you."

"Are you sure?"

He nods. "Positive."

"Then shoot. Not me. The question. Like, say it."

He pats my shoulder. "I get it, honey."

"Y-Yeah... I guess you just never know... like... you know...?"

"H-Honey, j-just stop, okay?"

"Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I will."

He laughs. "Well, it's about Kacchan..."

"Bakugou? Did something happen?"

"Kinda. You know his girlfriend, Sakura?" I nod. "Well, she was abusing him. Mentally and emotionally. His mom found out, so now he's going to therapy."

I clench my hands and jaw and the news. That bitch. No one should go through that.

"I'm going to kill her."
