TW - Mentions of abuse/trauma, Mentions of eating disorders, There's probably more but idk
Todorokis POV
Time skip - Friday
I entered the classroom later than usual (because I was being bitchy about eating breakfast) and I quickly went over to my desk and listened to my music and tried to avoid interaction. I'm not feeling the best this morning. I'm not sick or anything, I just feel off. I feel like today might not be the best but I try to ignore it by listening to some music. I wish I could listen to my music during class, I'd make me feel better.
I turn off my music once Mr. Aizawa comes in because I don't want to get in trouble but I put it back on once he just goes to sleep after a few minutes, basically just giving us a free day. I put my head down and just think. I've been getting more sleep recently, yet I'm still tired. I let the music calm me. I love listening to music, it's one thing that keeps me sane. The top three things keeping me sane is 1. Katsuki 2. Music 3. Katsuki (again).
Time seems to fly by and I get snapped out of my thoughts by the bell ringing and everyone getting their stuff and going to their next class. I grab my stuff, putting my phone back in my pocket, heading to my next class. Sadly, the teacher this like wasn't as tired as Aizawa and so I couldn't just listen to music for the whole time. This is going to be a long class.
Time skip - After school
The last bell rings, finally letting us out of school for the weekend. I meet up with Katsu and head back to my dorm. I get back to my dorm and throw my backpack on the ground and did my routine of putting my feeding tube in, changing into something more comfortable, and heading out to just cuddle with Katsu. I'm just laying with him and then I hear a knock on the door. I perk my head up and Katsu gets up to check who's there. I look to the side trying to cover the tube as I hear Mina's voice out the door. "Hey! Do you want to go to the arcade with us? You can bring Todoroki if you want to." She says to him. "Lemme ask." he says back before closing the door in her face.
"You wanna go to the arcade?" he asks coming over to me. I think for a second. I don't want them to see me, nor do I want to go out in public in general, but I know they'll find out sooner or later and I should face my anxiety. "Um, yeah sure." I say, getting up and pack my equipment, phone, and keys into a backpack. We head over to the door and he opens the door. I see them (Mina, Kaminari, Sero, and Kiri) looking at me with a shocked look. I look down, just wanting to disappear. Katsu grabs my hand, giving it a squeeze.
I sigh, trying to compose myself and look back up to them "D-don't tell anyone." They all nod and we head out, me still trying to cover my face some. We get outside and we start heading to a nearby arcade and I see Kiri coming back to talk to me. "Hey dude!" he says happily. I give back a small 'Hey'. I know that he kinda knows why I have the tube but that doesn't mean that I really want to talk about it. "How long have you had to tube?" he questions. Thanks for not being subtle dude.
"Since Tuesday." I reply. "What happened on Monday?" I look down, holding Katsukis hand tighter, and don't answer. Kiri notices that I'm uncomfortable and scratches the back of his neck awkwardly. "Sorry man, you don't have to answer if you don't wanna." I nod, keeping my head down. Kiri goes back to the other three who were ahead of us a bit and I stay back with Katsu. After some time we get to the small arcade that was built into a mall and we basically just split up to different games. I walk around looking at the different games.
The only one that I'm kinda interested in is basically the only one that actually gives tickets so you can get prizes. I put in a token and play. It's not the best game in the world but I continued to play it for the tickets. Katsu sticks with me for a little bit, just watching me before he goes off to see what else there was and see what the others were doing. I shrug and let him go, playing the game and going through the rounds, winning more tickets as I go. After a few minutes, Katsu comes back, making his presence known by kissing me on the cheek. "I got something for you babe." he says.
