Todoroki's POV -
I feel a small pressure on my waist as I begin to wake. I slowly open my eyes to see an unfamiliar room. I begin to remember the events from yesterday, Bakugo feeding me, him telling me he cared about me, him letting me cry on his shoulder, him kissing me on the head, and me drifting into a peaceful sleep in his arms. I smiled, realizing that Bakugo had his arm around my waist and was cuddled up to me. I shifted slightly, hoping to find a clock or something to tell me the time. I felt his arm move further onto me and held me tighter. He mumbled something undecipherable and snuggled closer. I smiled and tried to get his arm off me so I could get up. He held tighter and I knew he was awake. "What time is it?" I asked.
"Who cares," he responds "time shouldn't matter when you're with me." I blushed at this but I needed an excuse to get up. "I need to go to the bathroom let me go." I said, trying to get out of his grip. "Fine." he said letting go. I made my way to the bathroom and even though I didn't really need to go, I still went. I went back out and looked over at Bakugo how was sat up and rubbing his eyes. I spot a clock on the desk, 2:14 am it read. Damn, it's early I thought going over to sit on the bed with Bakugo. He smiles and wraps his arms around my waist.
"What are we?" I question him. I love him and he seems to love me so maybe we could date. "Whatever you wanna be," he responds. I smile. "Well then um," I start "Maybe we could date?" I say. He smiles and softly kisses the back of my neck "I'd like that." I shiver at his touch. I could just sense his smirk at my reaction. He laughs and gets up, taking his turn in the bathroom.
I use the slight amount of alone time I have to rethink what happened yesterday. I rethink everything. I go through the day until I get up to the part where he kisses my head. I smile at the memory but then the voices come back You don't deserve him, you'll just hurt him, he hates you, he just pities you. All of these thoughts came into my head, bringing me down and I get overwhelmed and begin to cry. I'm not ugly sobbing or anything but I just silently cry, curling up in a ball on his bed.
I hear him come out of the bathroom and at the sight of me crying he rushes over, hugging me and petting my hair. I can't help it. I sob while mumbling all the things going through my head. "He hates me, you don't deserve him, you'll just hurt him, he doesn't love you, he just pities you," I keep mumbling while rocking back and forth. He keeps trying to shush me while petting my hair. "Hey, you're ok. Look at me." I slowly look up at him, tears still flowing and he brushes some of the hair from my face and stares into my eyes. And then he kisses me. On the lips. WHAT THE HELL?!
I'm too overwhelmed to deal with this shit. "No no no no no no," I say getting up and rushing to the bathroom. Most people would act differently. Maybe it would calm them down more but I don't feel like I need more complicated emotions going through my head. I lock the door just before he can come in and I slide down the wall. The voices seem louder now. They're screaming at me and almost drowning out Bakugo whos banging on the door begging for me to come out. I can't. I'm hyperventilating and shaking. I'm scratching at my wrists and pulling at my hair. There are so many emotions that I can't tell what's real.
The next thing I know, the door is broken down and Bakugo is by my side again. I can't really escape it this time so I just accept it and let him hug me. He grabs my hands to stop me from scratching and potentially breaking the skin. I resorted to just pulling him closer and pulling at his shirt. He whispers small reassuring words in my ear to calm me. I can barely believe it's him doing this. I would have never expected Bakugo, out of everyone, to be this good at calming people.
I calmed down some, the voices got quieter and my breathing slowed. I looked up at him knowing that sooner or later he would want me to and let him brush the hair out of my eyes again. He slowly leaned in and kissed me again. I tensed and tried not to panic. After a bit, I melted into the kiss and just let it happen. I was happy. I didn't want this feeling to end but we ended up breaking away after a few seconds. He smiled and whipped the remaining tears from my eyes and held me close.
