I love you too [BakugouxTodoroki]

~Chapter 7~

Bakugou's POV~

I slowly opened my eyes only to see a peaceful looking Todoroki. Images of last night flashed in my mind, as I observed his peaceful slumber. 'What sort of dream did he have, to make him panic that much?', I wondered to myself. I subconsciously stroked his hair placing it behind his ear; getting a clear view of his face.

"Morning" Todoroki mumbled; snuggling further into the crook of my neck.
"Good morning" I said softly as I held him closer to me.

'What are we? Could Todoroki possibly like me back?' I wondered to myself.
My thoughts were cut short when Todoroki's phone started ringing.

He reached over me to pick up his phone and I could instantly hear the callers voice through the phone; endeavour.

I couldn't hear what was being said but I could see the colour drain from Todoroki's face.
" V-very well, I'll be there soon" Todoroki said suddenly.
After Todoroki hung up the phone he instantly wrapped his arms tightly around me.
I returned the embrace and began getting worried when I heard Todoroki release a few sniffles.

I lightly pushed him away to get a clear look at his face only to see fresh tears roll down his now reddened cheeks.
"What's wrong Todoroki?" I asked.
"N-nothing, sorry for worrying you" he mumbled as he sipped his tears away.
"Todoroki, tell me what's wrong" I said sternly
"N-no, it's ok" he said looking down; avoiding my gaze
"Shouto" I sternly said as I used my thumb to lift his head "tell. Me." I said more sternly.

"M-my f-father wants to see me today" he mumbled sadly.
I was shocked to say the least, the last time he saw his father- I don't even want to recall that memory.
"Are you going to be okay?" I asked
"I should be, he wants me to have lunch with him at a restaurant; I'm sure we won't try anything" he said trying to convince himself more than me.

"Do you want me to go with you?" I asked
"I can't ask that of you, my father isn't a nice person; as you know" he mumbled.
"Its okay, honestly. You go get ready at your dorm I'll be there in ten minutes, okay?" I asked.
"Okay, thanks Bakugou" he said with a small smile right before leaving to go get ready.
After some time passed, Todoroki and I left to go meet his father for "friendly" lunch.

Once we arrived at the café is was easy to spot Endeavour- seeing as he is literally on fire.
"Shouto you're finally here, good. Who is this? When did I ever say you could invite someone?" Endeavour said glaring at me.
Before Tosoroki could say- or in this situation stutter a sentence I cut him off.
"My name is Katsuki Bakugou, your sons classmate; as you know from the sports festival. Please excuse me intrusion, we have somewhere to be right after lunch; school projects." I said trying not to cause a scene.

Todoroki and I sat across from Endeavour and the tension was obvious. It was clear the endeavour didn't want me here- not that I cared.

"So what's this project you were talking about?" He said with a glare that could kill.
I could sense Todoroki getting nervous, since endeavour couldn't see I held Todoroki's hand in an attempt to comfort him.
"English." I said bluntly trying to make it seem like I wasn't lying- even though I totally am.
"Oh really?.... and what are you doing for this English project?" He asked.
"We have to get to know each other better; then write a paragraph about it in English" I said.

I could lightly hear Todoroki release a sigh of relief when endeavour finally bought the lie and moved one to another subject. 'Why does Todoroki seem so tense around his father?- like more then usual?' I thought to myself as I lightly squeezed his hands.

I'm surprised endeavour hasn't noticed our hands just yet but I wouldn't care if he did, I'd be more concerned for Todoroki though. Wait, what even are we? I mean sure we hold hands, hug, we even crash in each others beds from time-to-time and I like him but what are we? Friends? More?. As I was haven't a small mental crisis I failed to notice endeavour leaving after being called into the office, leaving Todoroki and I alone.

Todoroki visibility relaxed and placed his head onto my shoulder.
"Thank god" he mumbled as he yawned.
"Tired? Already?" I asked in a joking tone as we stood up to leave.
"Mhmm" was all he could manage as he stumbled out the cafe lazily.
"Come on lazy ass", I called as I squatted down for him to hop on my back; offering a piggyback- which he obviously accepted.

Todoroki's POV~

After the lunch with my father and Bakugou I was exhausted, especially after that interruption last night.... 'would he really react that badly if I came out?- of corse he would! Why would I even think of giving him the benefit of a doubt?!' I mentally argued as Bakugou carried me back to UA.

I could smell that sweet Carmel scent from Bakugou which never failed to make me relax. My eyes slowly started to close. As I slowly drifted to sleep, I listened to the deep, calming breathes Bakugou realised; before I knew I fell asleep.

Sorry for the short chapter:/
