Different Than You Think (Todoroki Shoto x Fem!Reader)

21

"You like me?"

(Y/N) was growing redder by the second. How was she going to explain this? You can't just walk up to someone and say "Hey I like you, let's make out."

"Um..." She looked around the room, people staring at the situation, Aizawa simply still sleeping. "Could we talk about this somewhere... private?"

"Sure. Also, I'll talk to someone and see who was texting you."

"Thanks." (Y/N) turned her head and covered her face because of the massive blush covering her complexion.

Todoroki was staying pretty calm, but on the inside was freaking out.

Oh my god, she likes me? What do I do? First, I need to find out who stole and/or hacked into my phone. But... Her? Me? What does she see in me? She's way too good for me.

He started to put down himself down about it, making himself calm down about this.

(Y/N) turned and sat back down in her seat while Todoroki stood there with a melancholy expression on his face.

"Todo, what's wrong?" She looked at him with a wistful expression, wondering if he was all right. Who looks at the one person that they are good friends with who has a sad expression on their face, and just ignores it?

Mineta.

ANYWAYS (Sorry you Mineta people. I'm dissing the pervy man-baby)

"Nothing... Just... Ugh, I'll tell you later..." And with that, he sat down, his sad expression remained for the rest of the day.

Time skip brought to you by "Sad Romance" ('sad violin')

The final bell rang, announcing that the school day was out. Todoroki was about to leave when (Y/N) ran up to him yelling, "W-wait! Todo-kun!"

Todoroki started turning around to look her in the eyes when she started talking again.

"Do you think that we could go... maybe... talk about what happened? We can go find a spot to-"

"Sh..." He put his finger to her lips, intending for her to stop talking. "I just... I don't think I understand. Why me? Out of all the guys you know, me? You have Kirishima, Kaminari, Sero, I obviously don't recommend Bakugou." He paused for a second. (Y/N) giggled slightly at his remark. "I-"

"Okay, now you shush," she interrupted him, smiling. "Seriously? Why wouldn't I choose you? You're so polite, but a different way than Iida-kun. I don't think that I could even like those guys this way. You understand feelings, unlike Kaminari, who's been influenced by that perv," she choked down a gag. "And Kirishima? He's always talking about how manly everyone is. Yeah, that's him, but I don't care for that. Then there's Sero... He's nice, yeah. But his smile... It honestly just scares me at how much he does. Then there are all the other guys. They just aren't you Todo. You are you and that's it. You warm me up when I'm cold, seeing nothing weird about it. You helped when Bakugou was harassing me. Hell, you didn't even know who I was! And that's the point. You will go out of your way to help others. (Or should I say he's... CIVICALLY VIRTUOUS) (I'm so sorry Deku) That's one out of a million reasons that I like you for you. I honestly have an entire list I cou-"

He stopped you right then and there by putting a finger to your lips again. Tears had been forming in his eyes as she talked and he needed her to stop before he started sobbing. (soft boi alert)

"You really think that? I'm not all that great."

"Yes you are and you know it!" (Y/N) had started crying by hearing him put himself down. "You know what? You need to stop-"

She was then stopped by him connecting his lips to hers. Her eyes widened, realizing what was happening. She then slowly closed her eyes and leaned into the kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, they parted, eyes opening and a new shade of blush covering their faces. (Y/N) felt like she was going to explode and hugged him, resting her head in the crook of his neck. Todoroki's hands rested on her hips as he hugged her back.

She cried quietly as he stroked her hair. "Shh... don't cry."

"I-I just didn't e-expect the conversation t-to rise like th-that..." She tried to choke down her tears while talking, it just wasn't working for her.

But little did they know, Aizawa had been right there, watching with a cup of coffee and some popcorn in hand.
