7: Uncertainly Happy

~3rd Person~

The fresh day came upon the future heroes.

Everyone in the building was still out, except for once specific student.

He steps outside of his room. There was no student in sight. He continued to walk out.

For some stupid reason, he didn't know what he was directly thinking, coming out there in the autumn cold.

It was 5:54am and he wasn't planning in getting at least some shut eye. He didn't want to sleep either.

It felt like he wasn't worth sleeping anymore since he didn't choose him.

Todoroki wasn't thinking straight.

He wasn't straight. He liked Midoriya.

He groaned in frustration, sighing sharply, he went out of the building to meet a beautiful rising sun in the horizon.

He heard nothing but the calming silence that is in the current majestic atmosphere.

The heterochromeia eyed kid never got over him. He thought it was going to be them. Not Ochako and Midoriya, but Tododeku, and Tododeku only.

Since the kitten got out of its bag last night, there was nothing more he could felt except be happy for him and move on.

{flAShbAck}

The 2nd year students sat at the table, eating their dinner, having a laugh and the time of their lives.

The few of them hit the hay early for exams coming in a few weeks, for studying and such.

Todoroki decided to stick around for a while, for the tea he's been anticipating for.

Todoroki sat across Midoriya, so it wasn't hard to keep an eye of him. He couldn't help but look up and see his 1st highschool crush in front of him, getting worried over his own crush.

Ochako slightly pushed away here own untouched plate and stood up leaving the busy table. "Goodnight guys." She said extremely tired.

Midoriya took notice of this and continued to eat. "Aren't you going after her?" I asked him smiling.

"I refuse to follow her for that it'll be intruding her privacy." He replied, not bothering to look up.

A bit of guilt build up in his stomach. "Sorry for asking, I'll never be asking that sort of thing again. I deeply apologize." He apologized, placing his filthy plate in the sink.

Midoriya didn't know what was up with him. He thought that he was being a drama queen as usual, but that gut feeling that Midoriya had forming in his chest that he wasn't fine.

Watch out, drama queen coming through. Izuku thought, rolling his eyes at irritation.

Todoroki has been there by Izuku's side, along side Iida and Ochako.

When Izuku always wanted to talk about school, feelings, or even about Uraraka. Todoroki will always be there to listen to him complaining, getting irritated, or even getting cross for no reason.

Of course, Izuku got note of this.

I should really try to talk to him about it. Izuku thought, waving 'Goodnight' to all of them.

Todoroki looked in the refrigerator as Midoriya silently walked away.

He glanced at the green haired boy walk away. Todoroki felt a feeling stir in him and it wasn't right, like at all.

"Hey did you hear? That there might be a chance that our exams will be moved?" Ashido said very excitedly.

"Yeah, I heard." Tokoyami said blankly, as anticipated.

"This is our chance to perfect our tests, hope that all of you will do your best!" Iida said, very president like.

"I agree with our representative. I'll help with tutoring as usual!" Momo said like the smart girl she is.

"Hey Tokoyami, yeet me the salt." Denki demanded, smiling like a puppy innocently.

"Not until you pass your own classes." Tokoyami said leaving the table. "Night." "That's not what I meant!" Denki exclaimed.

They all chattered but Todoroki stayed silent and listen to those gossips in the air, transferring from one ear, to another. "Have you heard that Midoriya and Ochako are dating?" Kirishima questioned bluntly, biting on his protein bar.

The 4 of us couldn't believe what slipped out of his mouth. "NANI!?"

"and i opp–"

"WHAT THE HELL!?" He exclaimed out of anger, that he couldn't contain. He smashed the table, startling everyone.

"Todoroki–san?" Momo looked at him, very displeased with his rude attitude.

Todoroki left the table in a rush.

Momo was overly concerned and decided to chase after him.

All of them were confused as to why he immediately reacted and ran off somwhere.

Yaoyorozu followed him to the back of the alliance building. She couldn't believe what she saw, it was a beautiful starry night, and it was nothing else but the two of them in the dark.

"Todoroki–san? You ran off in such a rush? Did Kirishima's comment trigger you by any chance?" She said sitting down next on the step.

"It's cold out? Don't you feel cold?"

Todoroki snorted at her puzzled face. "Was that a literal joke?"

She realized what she said, "yes?"

"Continuing, what happened to you back there?"

Todoroki changed expressions swiftly,  turning away to avoid her eye-contact.

"Its frustratingly pathetic, might be a waste of your time talking to me. I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me." He smiled falsely.

Momo wasn't giving up easily on him

Momo really cared about the guy, and he's been through a lot. For her, she doesn't want to see him hurt, than he already is.

After all that epiphany that happened before, she realized that she had a insane crush on him.

In all honesty, she doesn't want to admit that she has a crush on Todoroki, cause she knows she has no chance, because of his sexuality being a confident gay.

Momo wasn't taking in anything he said. She knew he was lying. She knew that he doesn't deserve this pain that he's feeling. He deserves a better life.

"Shoto, stop the act, please. I know this isn't you."

"How can tell? We aren't even that close to even knowing who I am." He said harshly, making his and momo's relationship go downhill.

She was in complete disbelief on what he said. She stood up from the step, "learn to control your emotions properly before you speak your mind."

She left him in the cold atmosphere, unable to speak process and to think.

He was frustrated, unable to think.

He wanted to change everything, though he has no ability to do so.

It just made him depressed to the fact that he wanted to kill himself.

There were a lot of thing he doesn't know.

He didn't know why Izuku didn't like him back.

He didn't know wjat was so special with Ochako that he didn't have.

He just wished that this never happened, and turn back time.

But he couldn't because of he already done what needed to be done.
