Summer's Frigid Breeze || InaTodo

Prologue

I realized how little InaTodo books there were, so I decided to make one!

This book might not have many chapters, but to own up to that, I'll make the chapters long (though, that also means slower updates. Sorry!).

"Alright, classes are over. Enjoy your Summer break. I sure as hell know I will." Aizawa left the classroom first, his yellow sleeping bag tucked underneath his arm as 2-A began chattering wildly about their plans for the Summer.

Todoroki didn't have specific plans. He wasn't a very social butterfly and preferred lone walks or relaxing at the park, but Midoriya had to ruin that for him.

"Hey, Todoroki-kun! Do you want to join Uraraka-san, Iida-kun, Yaomomo-san, Tsu-chan, and me to the mall? I heard there's merch for us now! Isn't that amazing?!"

It wasn't that surprising. After the Sports Festival, companies had been making merch for the new aspiring Heroes, starting from the top and gradually making its way down. Todoroki didn't mind much about it, but the thought of seeing his own merch lining stock shelves made him slightly uncomfortable, especially since he didn't give permission for it.

"Yeah, sure, I'll go," Todoroki agreed, knowing even if he denied, Yaoyorozu or one of the girls would drag him there anyway. Plus, it was an excuse to skip training with his father, so Todoroki wasn't too upset about going to the mall. Midoriya was his friend; it wasn't right to refuse for his own benefit.

"Great! Mind if we pick you up at five?" Midoriya asked, bouncing on the balls of his feet in anticipation. Todoroki nodded, earning a large smile from Midoriya as he waved goodbye and retreated home with the rest of his friend group, though Yaoyorozu stayed with him as he collected his possessions.

"Until we go to the mall, are you free for a walk?" Yaoyorozu asked, her hands entwined behind her back. "Perhaps around the park? It's fine if you don't want to. I know how uncomfortable you are hanging around other people." She smiled sweetly, making Todoroki feel guilty if he didn't accept her invitation.

"Sure. I don't have anything important to do, anyway." He stood from his seat, following Yaoyorozu out of the classroom toward the exit outside.

Blossom trees were in full bloom during the summer, many pink and white petals falling from the wind and onto the flawless sidewalk across the school gate. Some fell into the white marble fountain positioned in the center of the courtyard, floating elegantly down its stream and covering the bottom with pink and white. Todoroki liked Summer. He enjoyed the bloom of blossom trees and warm breeze that combed through his hair. It took away all the hardships he had during his life, even if temporarily.

Yaoyorozu was one of Todoroki's best friends. She was a kind, sweet, and selfless girl with top grades and one of the most beautiful girls, but Todoroki saw her as nothing more than a friend. Sure, she was beautiful and smart, but Todoroki had no romantic feelings towards her. He enjoyed her presence and quiet aura whenever they hung out. Sometimes, Jiro would hang out with them, too, by Yaoyorozu's request.

"I heard this Summer will be very hot," Yaoyorozu stated, pinning her side bang back from the breeze with her hand. "According to the weather forecast, I think it'll reach as high as a hundred! Isn't that crazy?"

Todoroki nodded, "It might be due to the new advancement of global warming, but I can believe the temperature will grow very hot. Aren't there organizations trying to use solar and wind to minimize global warming?"
