Balanced Out // TodoDeku (On Hold Until My Writer's Block Swallows a Toaster)

Unsettling Feeling (Midoriya's POV)

I wake up in Todoroki's arms. Everything that happened last night slams down on me and for some reason I...feel guilty. I shouldn't have told him any of that. Now he's gonna go out of his way to waste his time on me, trying to help me like this.

"I'm sorry, Todoroki..." I whisper.

His eyes flutter open.

"F-for what?" he asks groggily.

Ah, shoot. I woke him up. Great going, Izuku.

"A-ah...sorry...I didn't mean to wake you," I mutter, gripping the back of my neck.

"It's alright, I wasn't really asleep. I woke up a bit before you did, but I didn't want to wake you up, so I just tried to go back to sleep,"  he explains tenderly. He strokes the back of my hair, pulling me close. "Hey...Midoriya?"

"Err...yeah?"

"I love you..."

"Eh...? I...love you too..."

He kisses my forehead.

"We should get up...I...w-we have detention today, remember?" I suggest, turning a bit red.

He sits up and now his bare chest is completely visible. Despite having seen it multiple times, for some reason I flush a little.

I look away from him. I can't handle seeing...him...like this...

I need to get my head out of there. This is weird.

"Midoriya? Are you okay?" Todoroki asks, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"What? O-oh...yeah, I'm fine. W-we should get going...I don't wanna be late, I-I don't want either of us to get a worse punishment than this," I say, my face heating beyond anything I've ever felt in my cheeks before. I stand up, grabbing some random clothes of his to change into. He smiled watching me take his clothes. I think he knows I'm going to wear them today.

Todoroki hesitates, despite everything I just said. He gets up as well and wraps his arms around me from behind.

"Ng! T-Todoroki, what...?" I mutter, flustered above even what I already was.

"I want to stay here...with you...where we aren't monitored by a teacher or cameras..." Todoroki replies softly, speaking into my ear. I shudder and feeling his breath on my neck...it makes me quiver a little.

"W-what are you talking about?"

"I want to be alone with you, Midoriya...where no one, and I mean no one, else can see us..."

"You're getting even more vague the more you explain it. Why wouldn't you want anyone to see us?"

"Because I don't want anyone to see me do something..."

"W-what...?"

His hand wanders from my stomach all the way up my chest and up to my neck. I shiver a little again and my knees get weak. What is he--

Before I can finish that thought, he speaks quietly into my ear again.

"I don't want anyone to see me...steal something from you, Midoriya..."

"S-steal...? What does that mean, what would you be stealing f-from me...?"

"Something precious...a treasure, if you will..."

"What are you talking about? Todoroki, you're not making any sense. What would you want to steal from me?"

He turns my head so that my mouth is only a couple inches away from his.
