Shielding (Todoroki x reader)

21~ The Exam

(Todoroki's P.O.V) 

We went through the rest of the week, alternating houses for studying, each day similar to the first. Today was the day of the test, and we had just finished the written portion. "Phew. That was hard, but the studying definitely helped." (Y/n) said, sounding tired. We all went and got into our hero costumes for the battle portion. We watched everyone go through theirs, and then it got to (Y/n). "Takami, Ayoyama, and Uraraka will be going against Thirteen." called a robotic voice. "Hmm. They're matched based on weaknesses, and set up to be at a disadvantage. I'll have to extra careful." (Y/n) said, holding her chin and thinking. I watched her leave, then turned to the screen. The battle started, and not well to say the least. I watched as Uraraka and Aoyama attempted to get close, but Thirteen opened one of the fingertips on their suit. (Y/n) swooped over and grabbed them, throwing them to the nearest thing they could hold onto. (Y/n)'s feathers started tearing away from her wings, and then suction started pulling her closer. She slammed her fist into the ground, and the claw like attachments on her gloves caught into the ground. She pulled herself forward, then slammed down the other hand to get herself a firm hold. Ayoyama and Uraraka had a brief conversation,which startled Uraraka into letting go. (Y/n) sees it and lets go of her hold as well, and angles herself, so when the suction drags her in, she went right in between Thirteen's legs, grabbing onto their ankles and pulling them down after Uraraka grabs their wrist, and Ayoyama joined and grabbed the other. They walked off the battle field and came back into the viewing room. Or at least, Uraraka and Ayoyama came back. "Nice job guys!" said, Mina, giving Uraraka a high five. "Where's (Y/n)?" Hagakure asked. "She hurt her hands pretty bad when she hit the ground like that." Uraraka explained. "Oh yeah. There were red smudges on Thirteen's boots when they were walking away." Midoriya recalled. "Yaoyorozu, Todoroki, will now go up against Aizawa." the voice announced. "Good luck Momo, Todoroki!" A few students called, then we went out for the battle.

(Y/n's P.O.V)

After the battle I apologized for the blood smears on Thirteen's boots, then went to the infirmary. I don't like the infirmary, and a part of it is Recovery Girl's whole kiss thing. I generally don't like physical contact with anyone with the exceptions of close friends, sometimes family, though not that much anymore, Shoto, and when fighting someone. "Oh dear, (Y/n)." Recovery Girl said, frustration and annoyance clear in her voice as she examined my hands. "(Y/n), what in the world? How are you so calm, I can see bone here!" She criticized. I shrugged, then she said "Well, I'm going to have to sew this up before I can heal it." she said, getting out tools. I felt the corners of my mouth point down, and I got nervous. I'm not a big fan of needles either. Burns and needles. "U-uh ok then." I said, taking a seat. "So you're fine completely busting up your hands, but once I get out some harmless needles your suddenly nervous? Unbelievable." I sat and watched the needle and thread go through my skin. It didn't hurt as much as the injury itself, it was just uncomfortable. I forced myself to watch, and became fascinated with it, watching the needle go into my flesh. In, out, back, forth, blood trickling down my hand. She tied off the last one and put the tools off to the side. I cringed backwards and let her get the kiss over with. I watched the wounds slowly seal up, and even the burn from a few days ago faded, just leaving a faint outline. "Thank you." I said, then walked back out to the viewing area. "Hey, (Y/n)! You just missed Yaoyorozu and Todoroki's. How'r your hands?" Uraraka asked. "Oh. They're fine. Part of the bone got exposed, so I had to get a few stitches. Other than that they're fine." I explained, pointing to each area, not feeling like it was a big deal. "Oh my goodness, you're sure your ok?" she asked. "Um, I'm out of the infirmary, so I'm gonna say yes." I said, not seeing why she was so worried. "But you seemed so calm when leaving the battle field! Surely you couldn't have remained that calm after such an injury." Ayoyama interjected. I just shrugged and took a seat. Todoroki walked in and took a seat at my side. "How'd it go?" I asked. "It went well. Well, kinda. We both passed, but it was hard in the beginning." he explained, for some reason his face was tinted pink. "You ok? Your face is kinda pink." I asked. "I-I'm fine." he said, nervously. "Alright." I replied, still feeling skeptical but not wanting to push it. "How about you?" he asked. "What? Oh, my hands. They're fine. I just needed a few stitches." I said, too tired to give details. I let out a sigh and leaned back against the wall behind us and slept through the rest of the battles like I did at the sports festival. The fights came to an end and we went back to class to grab our stuff. We found out about a training camp we were going to be doing during summer break. Of course Momo's rich ass started complaining about how she was going to have to skip a vacation to place that I haven't even heard of.

~Next day~

 When I walked into class, Mina, Sato, Kirishima, Kaminari, and Sero were all upset by Aizawa's rule that if they failed they wouldn't got to join us at the hero camp. Of course this ended up being a logical deception, go figure. After a brief discussion, we were handed guides to the camp. At the end of the day we all started talking about camp. "This is gonna be great! I'm so glad we're all going together!" Ojiro said, holding up his guide. "Looks like we're going to be at the training camp for a full week." said Iida, reading through his. "I've gotta find a bigger suitcase." Said Midoriya, looking over at it. "Yeah, I don't even have a bathing suit. Guess I need to buy some stuff." Kaminari thought out loud. "Like night vision goggles!" Mineta added. "Pervert." I mumbled. "Guys, since we're off tomorrow and we finally finished exams, I have the best idea! Why doesn't class 1-A go shopping together?" Hagakure said. "Hey, yeah! We've never hung out as a class before!" Kaminari said, looking over at Uraraka who smiled and nodded. "Bakugo, see you there, right?" Kirishima asked. "I can't think of anything more annoying." Bakugo responded, walking away. "If you like him so much you should go." I whispered as he walked by. "WHAT THE FUCK, (Y/N)?!" He said, storming off, face red. "What'd you say to him?" Kirishima said, walking over to me. I took a quick glance back at Bakugo then said. "I just told him if his ego wasn't so fat, maybe he wouldn't have to walk bent over like that." I made up an excuse, pointing at Bakugo's hunched over walk. I made sure I said it loud enough for Bakugo to hear me, so he knew I meant it when I said I would keep it a secret. "Oh geez, that's pretty rude. But ok." Kirishima said, walking back to the group. "Will you come, Todoroki?" Midoriya asked. "I visit my mom on days off." He said, pulling his bag on. "YOU PARTY POOPERS! DON'T YOU EVER GET TIRED OF BEING SO SERIOUS?!" Mineta wailed, and I delivered a quick smack to the side of his head out of defensiveness for Shoto. The second I did it I knew I made a mistake. "SHIT- GET. OFF. MY. HAND!" I yelled, lifting up my and Mineta coming with it. "OW OW OW OW!!!" He screamed, as I shook my hand vigorously trying to remove my hand from his sticky hair. The rest of the class started laughing uncontrollably, Mineta getting flung around like a dog toy, and me screaming at him to get the fuck off. Finally, the ball separated from his head and got stuck to mine. We went silent, then I remembered something. "Wait... Doesn't the time of how long it sticks depend on your health?" I said, smiling. "Yeah, why? WAIT- NONONONO" Mineta shrieked as I sent feathers after him "TIME TO GO THE INFIRMARY, LITTLE SCUMBAG!" I said running after him, leaving the entire class laugh uproariously behind us. I stalked the hallways and eventually found him. "Hey, Mineta~" I said, smiling wickedly. He got one of his looks and I cleared m throat realizing how my voice just sounded. I kicked him in the stomach like he was a soccer ball, and watched as he went flying. "You could kill this little bitch right now, you know. You'd be doing a service." I shook my head, trying to clear out those thoughts, then looked down the hallway and watched him curl up and vomit. The ball separated from my hand, dropping to the floor. I kicked it down the hallway, and it rolled to a stop next to Mineta. I walked away, not looking back.

(Sorry for the quality of this, it probably sucks. I might edit it eventually, but I'm too tired to fix it right now and I was a bit lazy with it because I'm excited to write upcoming chapters, but this one not so much. Welp, I woke up at 3:03 PM yesterday and didn't sleep at all all night. It's currently 10 am and I have a dentist appointment in an hour and 45 minutes. Why do I do this to myself? Also the upcoming chapters should hopefully be more accurate to the series, as I'm going to try to watch each episode as I write the chapter corresponding with it. Next chapter should be the first full chapter that I will be doing this for. This doesn't mean I won't be making my own original changes though, because you, the reader, aren't a background character in this, and will not be made to be one, thus the plot will be bent to prevent that.)
