Todoroki covers his mouth as he tries to hold back the tears. He couldn't focus on the past right now. It hurt him so much. He tried to push the memories behind, but it was impossible. He took a deep breath and wiped his tears away. He focused on the traditional style Japanese home in front of him. Each stepped he took weighed more with fear. He never thought that he would ever have the courage to stand near this place. He grabbed the house key from under the mat and opened the door.

Todoroki saw the pictures on the wall of his family. Endeavor wasn't present any of the photos since he was always busy. Todoroki never considered him as family. Touya and Natsuo were like two peas in a pot since they got along pretty well. He was close to his sister, Fuyumi. Touya was rebellious and protected them from Endeavor. Natsuo did the best he could to protect them when Touya moved out. Fuyumi wanted to keep the family together, but it was impossible. Shouto never wanted to worry his siblings about him. He never told them about the accident. He let them touch him. Still, it felt like he lost a part of himself.

'I'll be okay.'

Todoroki knew that was a lie from the moment he told her. He was lying to himself to hide the truth. He tried to ignore the pain he felt. He remembered the way they touched him as if he was a toy. Their cold hands traced down his body as they raped him.

'Todoroki, are you okay?'

Midoriya

He should hate Midoriya, but he couldn't find it in himself to hate him. After the accident, Midoriya hugged him despite not knowing what happened. Todoroki wanted no one to know about the accident. He was afraid that people would pity him. Endeavor made it clear that no one would believe them.

"Yaoyorozu, go to the office." She turns her head to see Yaoyorozu's hand covering her mouth as she was crying. She stands up and looks at Todoroki. "Todoroki, I'm sorry." She hurries out of the classroom, leaving everyone silent.

Todoroki avoids everyone's gaze as he was quiet. He didn't know what to say to ease their worries. His pencil was trembling in his hand as he tried to control himself.

"NO ONE WILL LOVE YOU, YOU WORTHLESS SLUT!"

Giran's words echoed in his head as he tried not to cry. He felt dirty and used as a toy. They didn't care about the pain Todoroki felt. If Yayorozu didn't wake up, they would have continued. His eyes were filling up with tears as he felt so fucking dirty. His body didn't feel like his anymore. He took a deep breath and focused on his work in front of him.

When he heard the bell, he was ready to leave class until he saw him. The green-haired boy stood in front of him with a bright smile shining on his face, "Hey, Todoroki-Kun!" Todoroki would smile, but he couldn't right now. "Hey, Midoriya." Midoriya's smile faded when he saw the look in Todoroki's mismatch eyes. He grabbed Todoroki's hand as the red and white-haired boy followed behind.

"Todoroki, are you okay?" Todoroki tilted his head to the side, "I'm-" Midoriya shook his head as he tightens his grip on Todoroki's hand. "Don't give me that whole 'I'm fine' crap." Midoriya was his best friend and probably knew Todoroki better than anyone. Inasa had a reason to be jealous of Midoriya since the green-haired boy had a massive crush on his best friend.

Todoroki sighed, "I'm okay, Midoriya. You have nothing to worry about." Midoriya laughs, "Todoroki, I can see right through you. Didn't anyone tell you that the eyes are a window into the soul?" Todoroki raised an eyebrow, "How do you know this?" Midoriya smiles, "You're adorable." Todoroki didn't catch that when he got distracted.
