Cruel Intentions (Todoroki x Reader)

Chapter 20 - An Explanation

"(Name)....can you please talk to me?"

   You ignored Todoroki, and continued to pace back and forth in his room. You tried, you really, really, really tried to not get angry but your mind had summersaulted into several conclusions. In short, you were pissed. How could he admit to you now that his father had ordered him to become friends with you? All so that you would join his stupid hero agency? You knew Endeavor was an asshole so you weren't that surprised by his actions. But Todoroki? You had never felt more betrayed in your whole life. 

"(Name), please, just talk to me."

You stopped pacing for a moment, turned to Todoroki, opened your mouth, and just shut it right up again. You continued your pacing, your hands balled up into fists on your sides. Todoroki sat on his bed, his head hung low. He let out a deep sigh. 

"Just when were you planning on telling me?"

He looked up, grateful that you finally spoke. "I wanted to tell you sooner, trust me. I just didn't know when because as time passed, we got closer and I didn't want to lose your trust."

"You didn't want to lose my trust? Ha." You rolled your eyes. "What do you think you just did? Like come on, Shoto! We did things together. How...how could you...."

You turned your back to him. You didn't want him to see you shed a single tear. Even if it was his fault you were crying anyways. It hurt too much to think about how you let Shoto get close to you, only for it to all be an illusion. You were really beginning to think you could trust him with your life. But now....now you didn't know how to feel or what to think.

Todoroki got up from his bed and walked towards you. He slowly tried to lace his fingers with yours to try and comfort you. But you yanked your hand away. You didn't want him to touch you. 

"Shoto," you whispered. "I think...I think I'll go now."

He sighed. "I wish you didn't have to....but I understand, (Name)."

   Wiping your tears on your sleeve, you exited his room and made your way towards the front entrance. Todoroki walked just a few steps behind you. He was doing his best in giving you space so you didn't feel overwhelmed. Your world still felt like it had been flipped upside down though. None of it made any sense to you. 

Just as you were about to leave, the doorknob suddenly turned. You looked back at Shoto with wide eyes. Could Endeavor have returned so soon? What would he do once he saw you? Would he pitch his hero agency to you then? 

"Shoto-"

"Shoto, are you here?" 

It was another females voice. Shoto went from being panicked to relieved to being panicked all over again in a matter of seconds. The door was pushed open, and in front of you, you saw two older white haired siblings. Shoto's older siblings to be exact.

◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

Well this is awkward....

   You sat on the couch with Shoto who sat about a foot away from you. The two of you avoided each others gaze as his siblings who sat in front of you, stared at both of you confused. His older sister had ice white hair with streaks of red. She wore a baby pink cardigan over a white button down. She pushed her glasses up, her turquoise eyes filled with worry. His brother on the other hand, leaned back on the couch, his arms behind his head in a resting position. His hair was pure white. His grey eyes looked at the two of you with a mischievous look. He wore a toothy grin. His aura was definitely different from his sister who looked a tad bit uncomfortable to see you.
