It'll only get better//Todoroki x oc/reader

Chapter 35

You smiled with joy at the sight of the warm treat in your grasp. Without a second thought, you stuffed your face with the delicious taiyaki and inhaled it's sweet aroma.

"This. Is. Amazing." You muttered in delight as you waited for Aizawa's reaction. "It's...alright. Come on the train will be leaving in five minutes." He called leaving you unsatisfied with his poor word choice.

'Just alright? Maybe eating all those fruit pouches messed up his tastes buds.' You concluded as the only reasonable solution and quickly followed after him.

The two of you managed to get a seat on the increasingly busy train, that was leaving soon to Hosu. It was currently around two in the afternoon since the two of you had spent most of your morning training. The question was what time would you arrive?

"Hey, Eraserhead?" You asked but it seemed that he was already napping, slumped on his chair with his hair messily covering half of his face. 'Figures.' You huffed and decided to just look around for a sign or something.

'Aha!' You saw a timetable a few metres away reading, "Destination: Hosu, Time: 3:30pm." You groaned at the big-time distance and slumped in your seat.

'Guess I might as well tell Iida and Shouto the good news.' You thought as you pulled out your phone to text them.

You decided to text Todoroki first because priorities but still did send the same text to Iida.

Mitsuki Itō: Heyy guysss guess who's coming to Hosu? :))

You smiled as your phone immediately pinged from getting a message from Shouto. 'Boyfriend material right there.' You mused as you opened the message.

Todoroki Shouto: I'll try to sneak away from my trash can of a father to see you.

You laughed at the blunt message that you received and quickly typed back before he could run to the nearest train station.

Mitsuki Itō: As much as that would be so funny, Aizawa would kill you and Endeavor would kill me so probably not the best plan.

Todoroki Shouto: It's worth it.

You refused to let yourself awe at how cute that sounded and continued to text him.

Mitsuki Itō: Maybe, but don't anyways. I'll try to tell you where we'll be so you can 'coincidentally' see us.

Todoroki Shouto: sounds like a plan.

You were half-joking on that but it seemed to you that Todoroki was one hundred percent serious in the goofy idea. 'Oh well guess it's happening now.' You shrugged your shoulders and checked back to Iida's dms.

Your message has been read.

'Ouch.' You cringed a bit at the awkwardness of Iida not replying to your message and tried to come up with a reason. 'He's probably busy, I can definitely see him as the type who'd only reply if there was an emergency, especially if he's on his hero internship.'

Your mind seemed to slow down when the words hero internship and Iida crosses your mind. 'Iida's in Hosu right? Didn't something happen there not too long ago.' You tried to recall the previous past events that were on the news.

You tried to avoid the media like it was the plague but you did always stumble upon the odd news story that caught your eye. Your breathing hitched as you suddenly remembered the tragic accident that happened in Hosu only a few weeks ago.

'Iida's in Hosu. His brother was attacked in Hosu. Don't tell me...' you prayed that you were wrong, that Iida wasn't thinking what you were thinking, that it was just coincidental that Iida was at the very same place where the hero killer was last spotted.
