{*Todoroki's p.o.v*}

I pack my last box and look at my empty room, "goodbye room" I say quietly, I picked up my box's and left the room.

I walk down the stairs, "Shoto you can stay here, you don't have to go" My sister Fuyumi says, "I don't want to be here anymore, you can't stop me" I say, she sighs, "Shoto! don't leave! you have no where to go! you are my masterpiece! you need to stay!" my father yelled, I ignore him and leave the house.

I put my stuff into my car, "Shoto" Fuyumi says, I look at her, "have a good day" she says smiling just like when I was in high school, "you too Fuyumi" I say.

I sat in my car and sighed, I drive out of the driveway and leave, I don't look back. I start the long drive to my new apartment complex, I put on some music, "finally escaped that hellhole" I say to myself.

{time skip}

I arrived at my new apartment, I park my car and get out, I looked at my apartment complex, I smiled, I walked inside the building, "ah hello?" I say as I entered the place, a women sat behind a desk at the front of the complex, "hi sir, are you the one that bought the new apartment" she asked, "uh yes that is me, Shoto Todoroki?" I say, "i need some form of ID sir" she says, I took out my drivers license and hand it to her, "that's you alright" she says, she hands me back my ID, "i'm Kyoko Jiro, your landlord" she says, Jiro handed me the keys to my room.

I walked back to the car and got a couple of boxes out of my car, I walked back inside and walked up the stairs, "the 5th floor" I say to myself as I walk, each floor I go up the colder it gets, I shiver slightly, "weeeee" I hear a voice say, a little girl past by me, she had blonde hair with red bow in her hair, she was wearing a red dress that made her look like a princess, she ran back and looked at me, "i haven't seen you before sir, who are you??" she asked, "oh hello I'm Shoto, Shoto Todoroki" I say to the little girl, "i'm Rose!" she says happily.

Rose followed me to my apartment, I opened my door and enter the room, there was a small kitchen and living area, off to the side was a door that lead to my bedroom, "Shoto!" Rose yelled, I put my boxes down and look at her, "yeah?" I say, "we are neighbors!" she says, Rose grabbed my hand and dragged me to the room next door, "this is my house!" she said happily, "here Rose do you want to come with me to go get the rest of my stuff?" I asked, she nods.

we were walking down the stairs, "so Rose how old are you?" I ask,"i'm six! I'm a big girl now!" she says happily, I laugh, "where are your parents? they should not be letting you run around without parental supervision" I say, "my daddy is on a big business call with his friends! he needed me out of the house" she says, I thought about what her dad looked like, I needed more information, "does your dad do that often?" I asked, "no, he just did it today, daddy goes to work and I get a babysitter, deku used to be my babysitter but I haven't seen him in awhile" she says, deku? odd name.

by all the things Rose said about her father I imagined him to be a man in his late 30's or early 40's, he cared for his daughter it seemed, but he ways always busy, "what about your mom?" I asked, "i don't have a mommy" she says, so her father isn't the most handsome guy from this piece of information.

we got to my car and I got the rest of my stuff, "I can help you Shoto!" Rose says happily, she took one of the boxes and started running away, "don't run in the car park!" I yell, I locked my car and run after her.

I caught up with her, she was going up the stairs, "you are fast Shoto!" she says, "that was dangerous Rose, don't do that again" I say, she just giggled and continued walking up the stairs, I follow her.

Rose was standing in front of my room, I unlocked the door and open it, the little blonde girl ran into the room, she put my box on the floor, "Thanks Rose" I say, she smiled brightly, "you're welcome Sho!" she says, "sho?" I say, "yeah like your name but shorter" she says, I laughed, " I like it" I say smiling.

I put the boxes down, I looked over at Rose," I think daddy finished his meeting call thingy, let's go see him" she says, Rose grabbed my hand again and dragged me to the room, she knocked on the door, " Daddy?!" Rose yelled, " I'm coming!" a deep raspy voice yelled, the door opened up and looked at Rose's father, he was taller then me, he was a dusty once just like Rose, he was wearing a black suit with a red under shirt, he didn't have a tie to finish off the look, he had a jawline that could cut cheese, he was well built, I could see through the suit he had muscles, he might be attractive in someone's eyes but I thought he was ok.

Rose hugged him, "daddy this my friend Sho!" she say, he held out his hand, I shook it, "i'm Katsuki Bakugou" he says, " I'm Shoto Todoroki" I say, "like the model?" he asked, "ah that was a long time ago, when I was like 15" I say laughing, he smiled, "well come in I was just about to make dinner" he says, Rose grabbed my hand and dragged me to what seems like her room.

She jumped into her bed, "your apartment is bigger than mine" I say, "mhm daddy has the biggest house size you can get!" he says, so there was different sizes of apartments, I must of gotten the smallest size apartment, oh well...

Rose grabbed a bunch of paper and crayons, she had a little table in the room with two chairs, she sat down and put the stuff in the table, "come on Shoto sit down!" she says happily, I sat down on the little chair, I had to knees tucked to my chest, "let's draw Sho!" she says, Rose gave me a piece of paper, I picked up a yellow crayon and started to draw a flower.

we sat there drawing for a bit, "done!" we say at the same time, we giggled,

"i'm going to count to three and then we show eachother! ok?" Rose says, I nod, "three, two and one!" she yells,

we show eachother our art, she had drawn me and her together holding hands and smiling,

"you are so good at art" I say, I ruffled up her hair, she giggled.

"i think your flower is really pretty, let's put them on my wall!" she says,

Rose took the art and ran to the cabinet next to her bed, she pulled out tape and scissors,

"let me take those" I say, I took the scissors and tape.

she jumped onto her bed, above her bed there was a bunch of her art,

she put the one of her and me in the middle of all of the art,

"tape!" she yelled, I cut a piece of tape and the she stuck it to the wall, she did the same to my flower artwork.

I was reading a story to Rose when Bakugou walked into the room, "dinner!" he says. Me and Rose says at the dining table, Bakugou came back with three plates of pasta, "oh daddy made pasta! sho it is really good!" Rose says excitingly, he placed the food in front of us, "thank you" I say, "it is whatever" he says.

we started to eat, I took a bite of my food, "this is so good!" I say, "don't eat with your mouth full" he says, I gulped the food, "i told you it was good!" Rose says happily, I laugh and nod.

"here Bakugou let me at least so the dishes, it would be the polite thing to do" I say, "no way" he says, "you dealt with that little gremlin all day, I really should be thanking you" he says, "i'm not a gremlin!" Rose yells, she stuck out her tongue at Bakugou, he just laughed.

I sat in the lounge room with Rose as she watched TV, " I think I should go now" I say, "aww really? ok see you later Sho!" Rose says, she hugged me and I laughed, I stood up and walked to Bakugou's room, I stood in front of his door, I was nervous for some reason, I knock on the door, "come in!" he says, I opened the door, "i'm going now Bakugou" I say, he stood up and I got a good look at him,he has changed from his suit to a tank top and sweatpants, "thanks shortie" he says, "i'm not short you're just tall" I say, he just laughs.

I left the apartment and walk to mine, I entered my apartment, I closed the door and sighed, I ran my fingers through my hair, "they were nice" I say, I thought of Bakugou in his tank top, it being slightly to tight so it slightly showed his abs, his deep voice and that smile, "uhhhh" I groaned, I walked to my room and saw that I didn't have a bed because I just left without thinking about furniture, "great" I say, I opened one of my boxes and take out my futon, I place it on the floor and then I grab my blanket and pillow, I lay down on my makeshift bed and fall into a restless sleep.
