It'll only get better//Todoroki x oc/reader

Chapter 42

You nervously got out of the car as you saw Todoroki waiting by the entrance.

"Ahh, I can't do it!" You squeak as you slam the car door shut and sit with your knees up anxiously.

You watch as Eraserhead sighs and gets out of the car.

"Uh, Eraserhead? Buddy? What are you doing?" You ask cautiously as you see him open your car door.

"Trying to give you a spine. Now come on and get out here." He says whilst rolling his eyes as he pulls you out by your arm. You pout as your forced to get out of the car and go on your date.

"Any advice before you send me off into the big wide world?" You say teasingly, really selling this whole father figure thing.

He gives you a deadpan look before responding.

"Be home by eight." He states before heading back over to the front of his car.

You rolled your eyes at his comment.

"Any other amazing advice?" You ask making him roll his window down to look at you. He puts on one of his weird grins before replying.

"Have fun." Was all he said before driving away. You smile warmly at his words as you tighten your hold on the gift bag. You breathe in deeply and put on a smile.

'Ok. This'll be fine. No point stressing over it now when you're just a couple of metres away from him.' You thought rationally to yourself but that didn't stop you from also wanting to hop into the next bus and leave.

You counted to five in your head as you calmed yourself down, before making your way over to Todoroki.

"Happy one month anniversary Icyhot~" you said sweetly as you tried to build your confidence back up.

He gave you a once over seeming to like what you were wearing.

"Happy one-month Itō, you look...pretty." He said as he turned away to most likely hide his blush.

You scanned what Todoroki was wearing, stylish as usual, and playfully punched his arm.

"Hey, you're not looking too bad yourself Shouto." You teased as you held his present out towards him.

"I-uh got you a little something." You say with an embarrassed smile as you hold out the bag for him.

He smiles softly as he reaches for the bag making you chuckle.

"You look happy and you don't even know what's in it yet." You say with an amused smile.

"I don't need to know what's in it. You getting me anything will make me happy." You bite your knuckle at his sweetness as he opens the bag.

You watch in anticipation as his eyes basically sparkle as he opens the box and sees the hand-picked scarf.

"Do you like it?" You asked nervously.

"It's perfect." He said with his jaw hanging slightly as he stared at it with awe.

"Ha, funny you should say that because that's exactly what I sa-" your words left you as you were suddenly being pulled into a hug by Todoroki.

"Thank you itō." You try not to fawn over his husky tone and just awkwardly wrap your arms around him, being careful not to squish the present.

"Hey what are girlfriends for?" You chuckle along with his cuteness and wait for him to let you go.

After he finally releases you, he pulls out a silver box from his jacket. You started smiling immediately and quickly understood what he meant about being happy if they got you anything regardless of what it is.
