Falling for Him (Discontinued)

Chapter 9

Kirishima POV:

I fell asleep not long after Shoto left but I got waken up when  Shoto burst through the door, 

"Sorry Eijiro, I didn't know you would be asleep," I rubbed my eyes and yawned,

"Nah its fine, where'd you go?" Shoto smiled and walked over to me,

"I know you aren't feeling great and that you needed groceries so when I saw your list on the floor I just went out and got all of it," I was shocked I mean I knew Shoto cared about me and he was always so nice but I really didn't expect him to buy groceries for us,

"I have the money in my jacket pocket I can grab it or you can," I knew the groceries had to be expensive around 25,000 yen and I don't want it to seem like I was using him,

"No, I don't need you to pay me you've been through a lot today Eijiro,"

"Bu-"

"No buts, hows the swelling doing? Has it gone down yet?" I'm really grateful for Shoto, he's always there for me and it makes me smile knowing he cares that much,

"It went down a bit," He kept asking me questions and told me not to put my contact back in for today and then I had a sudden realization, " Wait, Shoto will I be fine for when school starts?!"

"Uhm let me search it up," it didn't take long for him to frown then put his phone down again, "Well the swelling will be down enough to put makeup over it and it should be okay to put your contact back in,"

"But how bad is the bruising going to be?" he looked uncomfortable and shrugged his shoulders absentmindedly,

"pretty dark,"

"Really?!" 

"Yeah it takes weeks to heal a black eye to heal, I'll bring extra foundation and an extra set of contacts if you want,"

"No, its fine thanks though," I frowned and started chewing at my lip absentmindedly trying to think of what to do,

"Eijiro, are you sure?"

"Yeah, I'll be fine," I wanted to seem calm and nonchalant but really I was starting to feel like a burden the more he offered, " I think I'm going to head to bed soon I'm a little sore, and you should probably head home," 

"Alright, Take care Eijiro," then he left I felt weak and like shit so I washed my face and just decided to sleep, I just wanted to disappear.

Todoroki POV:

"Alright, take care Eijiro," I left his room, and I decided to just bring extra foundation to school anyways, he said he was fine but he was out of it and I didn't want him to panic like today.

"우리는 집에 있어요! 왜 그래?" I had to interrupt Eijiro's mom, ( we're home! why'd y-)

"He's asleep,"

"Oh, Shoto, what happened?" his moms both walked in looking slightly confused,

"That Ito kid beat him up and he has a black eye, it won't heal before school but he is mostly alright,"

"그 쓰레기 엉덩이 아이!"(That little trashy ass kid!) I didn't know what she said but his more aggressive mom was not happy in the slightest, we kept talking and eventually his mom asked for me to take her phone number so if anything happens at school I can contact her, she said that Eijiro doesn't call them unless its just to ask simple questions or it would have to be really bad. 

"Oh I don't know if this is a weird thing to say but I'm worried about the first weeks of school and I wanted to bring like some back ups like contacts and foundation, and I was just wondering what brand and color he used for contacts,"

"Oh sweety, that's so nice, I'll grab you one of his extra pairs," his mom walked off and I was left with his intense mom,

"Take care of him, alright?' she seemed sad but was smiling she reminded me of Kirishima a lot of the time, "He never asks for help unless he really needs it his mom has gotten good at picking up on the signs when he isn't feeling well," she sighed, "I trust you kid," I smiled back towards her reassuringly and she came over and smacked my head softly, " I like you kid," she ruffled my hair then walked into the kitchen,

"Alright kiddo, I've got one of them and here's some stuff to keep it clean, oh! do we need to get groceries? He said he was going to the store,"

"I got the food for him," she sighed and smiled at me again

"You are such a good kid," she ruffled my hair and gave me two bags, "Take some food home alright?"

"thank you Ma'ma," I smiled and she laughed,

"Don't be so formal kiddo, you're family now you can call me whatever you want," I nodded my head and she smiled again and I left. I was beaming Eijiro's moms were incredible. I hid the stuff in my backpack and made it back to my room without anyone noticing I was gone.

I finally got comfortable I packed my bag for school with Eijiro's contacts and foundation than I went into the bag of food from his mom, the food smelled delicious, there was containers labeled: gimbap, kimchi, mandu, I didn't really know what they were but I started eating some anyways, I only ate one of each so I could save it for breakfast. It was so good, I hadn't had anything like it before, 

I only ate a little but it was so good I was going to hang out with Eijiro tomorrow and probably ask him about the food. I eventually feel asleep but Eijiro was still on my mind, he seemed mentally hurt but he wouldn't say, something from hanging out with him is that he lives life with his own rule, he basically doesn't let himself be pitied he is incredibly in touch with his emotions but he disconnects his negative ones to help others and I think its hurting him way more than he lets people think. Eijiro trust me though and I'll help him as he helps me.

(Also just so ya'll know gimbap, kimchi, and mandu are all genuinely so good and are also Korean food since Kirishima is Korean in this)
