Cruel Intentions (Todoroki x Reader)

Chapter 26 - Visitors

"How many times do I have to keep visiting you in the hospital?" Goliath sighed.

 The strength hero sat next to you, arms folded across his chest. After the incident with the Hero Killer, the pros arrived a little later than expected but escorted everyone to the hospital. You sat upright on the waiting table, the back of your shirt pulled up to expose the wound on your shoulder. The nurse had finished disinfecting your wound and was now about to give you stitches. 

Goliath had rushed to the hospital as soon as he had heard what had happened. It looked like he was dealing with the Nomus in the city as well since his upper arm had been bandaged up. He was not happy at all when he saw you getting tended to by the nurse. 

"I brought you a change of shirt, take it," Goliath grumbled.

"Thanks," you smiled weakly. Getting stitches made you feel quite queasy. You took the fresh new shirt from him and placed it on your lap. "Um....can you turn around?"

"O-Of course!"

Goliath promptly turned around in his seat to give you some privacy. 

The nurse chuckled. "He seems sweet. Is he your dad?"

Your face heated up. "N-No, he's not!"

"I'm not," Goliath clarified the same time as you.

You didn't know where she got that from since the two barely even looked alike. 

"Oops, sorry," the nurse apologized with a small smile on your face. "I finished cleaning up the wound so go ahead and change now. It'll hurt more to lift your arms up later. The good news is that your body has healed itself well. I just need to put in some stitches to help speed up the process."

You nodded understandably and slipped off your torn and bloody shirt over your head. It felt sticky to the touch something that made you internally cringe. So much blood had been spilt in that dark alley. The nurse handed you a biohazard plastic bag to place it in. You happily discarded the dirty shirt and changed into the fresh (f/c) one. You smiled fondly when you realized Goliath had picked out one of your favorite shirts. 

"Okay turn back around," you told him.

He did so, scowl on his face. "I can't believe you were so reckless and got involved with the Hero Killer," he fumed. "What were you thinking?"

"I was thinking, hey my friend might be in trouble so I'll go and see what's up," you explained. You winced upon seeing the nurse hold up the needle from the doctors tray. "I didn't think the Hero Killer would be there and if I did know, I still would've gone anyways."

"(Name), you've got to be kidding me," Goliath sighed. "What if you had gotten hurt?"

"Um, this might sting a little," the nurse piped up.

You nodded for her to continue and turned your attention back to Goliath. "I hear what you're saying but luckily I'm fine. So don't worry." You squirmed a little in your seat when you felt the cool needle pierce your skin.

He looked at you stunned. "Don't worry?" he questioned in disbelief. He got up from his seat abruptly, the chair he was sitting on rattling against the wall. "Do you hear yourself right now? (Name), he could've killed you! He doesn't care if your just some kid that doesn't know any better."

"Sir, please calm down," the nurse said sternly. "I understand you're upset but now isn't the time or place for this."    

The strength hero sighed, running his hand through his auburn locks. "Sorry....Just let me know when she's good to go." He started to leave the room but ran into Endeavor on the way out. "What are you doing here?" He stood firmly in front of you, blocking Endeavor from looking at you.
