Are You Mine Yet? (A Medieval AU, tododeku story)

Chapter 3

Todoroki's POV
"Midoriya," I started, " If you don't mind my asking, how do you know how to read?" I'd never seen a servant with that kind of education before. "My parents taught me...." he answered, a little sadness in tone. I give a confused look as gets up. "I-I think I should go see if I'm needed anywhere around the castle! He said, trying to disguise his sorrow. "Midoriya, I told you I get what I want, and want to what's wrong." I replied, unintentionally sounding a bit annoyed. "I-I..... but your highness!" He stated surprised, then quickly walked away before I could order him to say anything else to me. I stared at him as he walked, the way his hips swayed as he moved. Only then had I realized how skinny he was. The Bakugou's must not have fed him very frequently. After all, servants belong to their masters, unless the king tells them otherwise. It's a law I wished to break, it be better for most people that way, but if I did, Midoriya would no longer belong to me. But it is my duty as a prince to ensure the greatness, and prosper of the kingdom! I just can't stand the thought of Midoriya being someone else's. He is mine now after all.

"-And that is why, we must feel the prosperity of the kingdom within ourselves, for the good of everyone around us!" I announced, sounding ever so frank but hint of pride lingered in my tone. After my speech I walked off the stage, feeling my poster slouch as soon as I was out of the public's site. The worst part about being prince is the public announcements. I wonder what Midoriya's up to......

Midoriya's POV:
I missed the prince's speech, I didn't have time to go and listen to it, as soon as I got from the library I had list and list of work to complete. I was scrubbing the floor in a hallway on the left wing of the castle. Man is this a lot of work. I thought as I finished and quickly got up to do my next job.

I was walking back from the well the castle gets its warm water from to fill the bath with clean water for the prince. I had already drained the water so it was only a matter of filling it back up. I was on my fourth bucket of water and the tub was already a little over half way full, so this should be my last round trip. I started filling up the water when all of the sudden I hear a the door open up behind me. I flinched at the sound, letting droplets hit the ground.  I set the bucket down on the counter and turned around to see who had walked in. When I was facing the door I saw a shirtless and slightly flushed Todoroki. ... The room went dead silent for a moment before Todoroki opened his mouth, ready to speak. "So,... I noticed weren't at my speech earlier." He said frankly, but a sly smile on his rose pink lips. "I........I-aaaaa.." I tried to open my mouth to speak but all that came out were a few odd noises. "Hah, I see your having trouble getting your words together Midoriya." He said teasing me. Part of me wanted to sass back but I couldn't form a sentence. My eyes were to busy darting back and forth along his chest. Before I had the chance to react, he walked up to me and pulled my chin up to face his face elusive, and mysterious eyes. "Midoriya, I need to bathe." Todoroki let out slowly. "Y-yaaaa"y-yess your majesty!" I just barely managed to say. I quickly picked up the bucket and dumped the rest of the water into the bath before jetting out of the room. So embarrassing... I said to myself as palmed my face.

Todoroki's POV:
Midoriya..... he so odd sometimes. Either that he's falling for my charms. I chuckled to myself.

As I'm in my bedroom, preparing for my rest a hear a thud outside my room. I walk out my door see tumbled Midoriya on the floor. "Are you alright." I state looking down at the small figure. "Yes! In alright your majesty." Midoriya responded a bit surprised. I leaned down, grabbing onto his shoulders and pulling him back to his feet. "Th-thank you your highness." Midoriya let out in response. "No need to thank me." I stated before asking, "Oh and Midoriya, I'd like to when the last time you ate was." Ever so calmly. "Oh-I um last Sunday I believe, Kacchan and his family didn't feed me much, and I've just kind of grown used to it. I had some what of shocked expression on my face before saying "Alright, thank you, good night." I'll have to do something about that. Even if he's a servant he's still a human being. I climbed into my bed after blowing out the lantern lit inside my room as I retired for the night.
