midoryia and todoroki started to stick to each other like glue. it was odd at first, seeing todoroki be so comfortable around the green haired boy. after two weeks, it grew on everyone and it wasn't odd to see the two talking and walking with each other to class.

todoroki sat beside midoryia as he ate his cold soba, glancing at uraraka who was complaining about the lesson, how she can't control her power like that yet. "he's always so tricky! never gives a break!" the brunette whined as she munched on her rice, stuffing her chopsticks into her mouth with a loud whine.
"he means well, he just wants us to improve." Iida said, reasonably as he adjusted his glasses on his face, uraraka only shrugging and eating. uraraka and Iida started talking about classes while todoroki and midoryia watched.

todoroki peeled his eyes away from the pair to look around the loud cafeteria, eyes settling his eyes on his bowl of soba and set his chopsticks down in the bowl. staring down at it, mismatched eyes staring at the bowl with a soft glint of annoyance in his eyes, lost in thought. he almost didn't hear the soft voice next to him speak. "Is it good?" midoryia asked, his scarred hands were playing with the hem of his school uniform blazer. todoroki looked beside him, the small boy smiling at him, pointing to the soba. "oh.. yes, it's delightful."

todoroki turned his gaze back to bowl and was ready to get lost in his own head again when his best friend spoke. "can I have some?" lifting his gaze again and not even looking at the boy as he nodded, slowly.
midoryia wanted some of his soba, no big deal. they shared stuff all the time. sodas, chips, ice cream, etc. Of course, when they shared stuff like that, they never used each other spoons or straw. so when midoryia grabbed the two chopsticks from the bowl and picked up some noodles, todoroki looked at him and furrowed his brows but didn't mind even though he hated when people used his sliverware or chopsticks. he could make an exception.

watching as the shorter boy put the noodles into his mouth with the chopsticks, setting them down after as he chewed, covering his mouth as he spoke, "you're right! these are delightful!" todoroki smiled at his words but hid it quickly with a nod. opening his mouth to speak when the bell rung, todoroki stood up and so did everyone else in the lunchroom, everyone throwing their trash away. midoryia and todoroki tossed their trash into the bin and walked together to class.

After class, todoroki and midoryia packed up, midoryia going to todoroki's desk and standing in front of it after he had finished and todoroki was still shoving his note book into his bag as midoryia started to yap about nonsense, taking his bag in his hand as he headed to the exit, midoryia following, still talking as the taller boy listened, quietly.

after making it out of the school, they walked home together, since they didn't live far from each other, they always walked together. "I am so glad it's Friday." midoryia said, happily as he practically skipped his way home with todoroki. "me too, I can rest." todoroki replied, glancing at him.
after another 10 minutes of talking and just walking, they were in-front of midoryia's apartment complex, "here's my stop! text me when you get home! ok?!" Midoryia said as he waved goodbye and started to run to his floor. todoroki nodded and mumbled a soft, "of course.." before he headed home himself.
