Broken || Shoto Todoroki x Reader [ discontinued ]

Chapter 14 ||

Dinner rolls by quickly and I have some time left before I wanna go to sleep. Todoroki and Natsuo were sitting in the living room, Fuyumi is in the kitchen and I was about to go to the living room too.

"Akamori," Fuyumi says from the kitchen.

"Yes, what I can I help you with Fuyumi?" I ask her as I walk into the kitchen.

"I was wondering are you and Sho friends?" She asks using a surprisingly cute nickname for Todoroki.

"I- I would say I consider him as a friend, yeah," I answer her.

"That's nice to hear, he's always had a hard time making friend," She tells me.

"I knew he was more reserved than the rest of our class and I'm starting to see why," I tell her trying to give her a reassuring look.

"How about you? Do you have a lot of friends?" She asks me trying to lighten the mood.

I look away awkwardly, "I was never really able to have friends," I say as I remember my homelife before leaving my parent, after leaving my parents, and with the military. 

"That's too bad," She says sounding a bit awkward, or like she doesn't know how to respond.

"It's fine," I answer her. 

"Well, you should go relax for a bit I heard you are going to the Hosu district tomorrow morning," She says trying to change the subject.

"Yeah, I think I'm gonna go sit with Todoroki and Natsuo for a bit," I tell making my way to the living room. 

As I walk in I see Natsuo sitting on the couch playing video games, Todoroki is also on the couch and he seems to be reading something and from time to time he glances at the tv to watch Natsuo play.

I sit down next to Todoroki and for a second it looked like his cheeks were a light pink, it was probably just the lighting.

"Hey, what are you reading?" I ask him, wanting to know if he is reading anything that I might want to read too.

"I'm reading 'Flower for Algernon' by Daniel Keyes. He is an American author, it's pretty interesting, you might enjoy it too," He tells me.

We chat for a while as he tells me more about the plot of the book. It's about a man with a low IQ who participates in an experiment to get smarter. I'll have to read it sometime.

"Natsuo, what time is it?" Todoroki asks natsuo. 

"It's almost midnight," Natsuo answers to invested in his game. It's almost midnight that means we have been talking for about 3 hours. And it only felt like a second, why do I feel like we could talk for days on end and we wouldn't run out of things to talk about.

"We have been talking for a while, we should get some sleep. It's a big day tomorrow," Todoroki says sounding a bit disappointed that it was already so late.

"Yeah, we should get some rest," I say reluctantly getting up from the couch. Todoroki follows me out the living room and we soon split up to our rooms.

"Goodnight, Todoroki, " I say to him.

"You can call me Shoto, and goodnight Akamori," He tells me.

"Hey, if I can call you Shoto call me (Y/n)," I say as I walk off to my room.

I get myself ready for bed and lay down to sleep, it takes me a bit to fall asleep as Todo- Shoto and my conversations from tonight keep playing in my head. It was fun getting to know him more.

And with that, I drift off to sleep.

I walk back into my 'home' after a long day of school, only to remember that I should start studying right away, I don't want to score less than 100% on a test again. Last time Mother and Father were so disappointed in me.
