Cool Down! (Todoroki Sister¡Reader)

Chapter 20: Forgiveness

School came back as soon as the sun came up. Surprising you that morning was Natsuo, who tried to down medicine in your mouth. It came to a point where Fuyumi ended up getting involved.

"Fuyu-nee!! Please explain to Big brother Natsuo that I'm feeling better!!" You tell trying to push back the white-haired male who was armed with a spoon and medicine.

Fuyumi looked at her two younger siblings who were wrestling on the couch over medicine.

She took a deep sigh, "Natsuo--"

"Oh, everyone is here?" Shōtō came walking in with a confused face.

Chomp!

"(Y/N)!! You didn't have to eat the spoon!" Natsuo yelped falling off you as you jumped up and dashed away.

"I-I forgot I still need to get changed!" You scream out of the room in a panic manner.

Shōtō frowned ever so slightly when he saw how you quickly passed by him without looking his way. And when you left, you also left an awkward aura to envelop the two boys in the room. Sensing the trouble in the air Fuyumi sighed before proceeding to lead them to eat.

'What does (Y/N) mean about changing? I thought we established that she was gonna stay at home today?'

[--]

You let a sigh of relief as you sat down on your table. For some reason, it's like you have more air to breathe in school than in your own home. How strange it is for you... Isn't your home supposed to be your safe haven?

The thought made you confused and concerned about your thought process. You've been raised to know your home is your safe place.

'I feel like I have been forgetting something...' Before you had the chance to dwell deeper in your thoughts, you perked up when you noticed a guilty faced blonde in twin tails walking up to you looking like a kicked puppy.

"Tomodaichi...?" You squeaked in fright making her look even sadder than before.

"Todoroki-chan...? I know, that... That I don't deserve to approach you from the way I have been acting the other day but..." Tomodaichi fumbled with her feet and fingers as she took deep breathes.

You notice how her aura was fluctuations with guilt, worry, and sadness. It made you empathize with the blonde.

Tomodaichi slightly gasps when she felt a calm presence loom over for and when she looked at you, she blushed at the soft smile you had on your lips. "Yes?" Your soft voice rang in her ears that it almost made her trip.

"U-Uh..! Well..! I wanted to apologize, really bad!" She started twirling her long locks as she looked away.

"It's just... Actually no... There is no excuse for what I did the other day. I was really insensitive to everybody and I felt so guilty. I apologized to the others, but it was so hard to apologize to you cause I also hurt." Tomodaichi frowned. "I heard from our classmates that you had your wrist bandaged because of me... I didn't want to cause any harm...! I promise! But I always worry that my bad habit of being insensitive and bratty to others will resurface. I got so scared and worried that I ruined everything!"

The girl ranted, so much so that tears started to pool at the corner of her eyes. You frowned at the sight and felt guilty yourself, isn't your quirk activated? Perhaps her pain and guilt are so strong that it made her immune to your quirk?

That was the first.

Your eyes soften at the sight of her bowing to you, but also felt really embarrassed since everyone was watching. Tomodaichi really wanted to beat herself down. Cause this should also be embarrassing for her as well.

You let a small laugh before patting her hair in a comforting way.

"Tomodaichi, you didn't have to make such a public apology... You must have had it tough at your home or something, right?" The blonde looked shocked at your assumption before nodding with a sad frown.

'I was somewhat right? All this is what just I heard from teachers or psychologists...' You held yourself as your comfort.

"Don't worry, I forgive you..." You say making her beam with disbelief and joy. "R-Really!?" She asks loudly to which you nodded. She slowly slipped into silence making you worry but then all of a sudden she cried out in happiness the proceeded to tackle you in a tight hug.

"Todoroki..!!! You truly are an angel! I promise I will be good from here on out!" Said the blonde earning smile from your classmates and peers.

But a certain purple-haired male frown as he stared at the ordeal. He really didn't like the feeling bubbling in the pits of his stomach right now. It was distracting and uncomfortable as well. He doesn't know why he was feeling that way, but there was one thing he knows...

'Get your dirty hands of the kitten.'

"Shinsō? You alright?" His classmate asked when they heard the pencil the boy was holding make a cracking sound. "I'm fine, I just remembered important."

"Oh?" Ignoring his classmates, the male quickly left once lunch started...

Before he came back in and dragged you out. Or that was he thought he did... Moreover what he intended to do but he bailed that idea the moment he went back through the door and left for the final time.

His classmate was just confused as to what they were looking at.

[--]

You stare at the plant before sighing. 'Do I really have to do this again?' You thought holding the potted plant in your hands.

'The Sports Festival is coming close too... That must be the reason why Shōtō was so focused on himself...' You concluded since you thought of no other reason that could explain for your brother's actions. 'There's no other reason...'

"Right..?" You thought with even more worry clenching the pot with worry unbeknownst to you.

"Wow, you are fucking destroying that plant.." You jump at Bakugo's voice before noticing the dying plant. "Ah..!" You panicked attempting to bring back the plant youth but it ended up shriveling more and turned into ashes. The sight made you silent before you place the now-empty pot down.

The blonde rose a brow at your attitude before he flinches at the sudden jolt that stung the back of his neck.

'Fuck...' He thought rubbing the area where it stung even if there was no more pain the feeling of it still lingered.

Bakugo sighed to himself before taking the spot next to you. You wanted to say something since it was meant for your brother but after yesterday... You're not so sure you even want to meet up with him right now. "Shitty day, huh?" Bakugo spoke up through the silence.

"Yup." You curtly replied still looking down at your hands intently.

"I take it, you hate it every time that happens, huh?" He asks to which you nodded sadly. "I really hate it when it happens... Even after all those years of training my quirk, there are always those moments when I have no control with my quirk..."

Watching your slumped form Bakugo looked between his hands and your hair before he sighed starting to stroke your head in a comforting manner, hesitantly as always.

You flinched from surprise under his touch, but almost immediately, you eased up and relaxed. There you both stayed. In that position for almost, who knows how long, it felt like forever but it would be a lie if you say you didn't like the silence you both sat in. Even though it was the silence that you always feared.

"Thank you..." You suddenly mutter making the blonde cock a brow in confusion.

"For what?"

Taking out your phone you opened it up just to reread something with a small smile. "For the text the other night..."

'Your jolts are fucking annoying. Stop'

'Seriously stop, it's distracting me from my homework'

'...Are you all alright? Wanna make a call?'
