Under the Rainfall: Episode 4
"First Date"
Izuku, Eijiro and Denki approach Shoto who is currently confused as to why Momo left him all of a sudden.
Eijiro: Hey, man — what's up? Why did Yaoyorozu just run away like that?
Shoto: I... don't know. She and I were having a conversation that seemed to be going well, but then she suddenly started to run away after I told her that I wanted to grow closer to her.
Izuku: Um, Todoroki? What exactly did you talk about that made her run away like that anyway?
Shoto: I honestly have no clue. Firstly, I told her that I thought her name was beautiful. Then I told her that she reminded me of my mother whom I respect, so I have no idea why she would run away like that.
Denki: Dude, *that's* why — she's flustered! You told her all of that, and expect her NOT to run away embarrassed?
Shoto: Embarrassed? But I gave her genuine compliments, that's nothing to be embarrassed about.
Denki: Jeez, what did you guys DO last night?
Eijiro: Come on, Todoroki. Spill it, how do you ACTUALLY feel about Yaoyorozu?
Shoto: I think she's a great friend, and I have a deep respect for her.
Izuku: But... do you have a crush on her?
Shoto: According to your description, I guess so. You said that a "crush" makes you feel nervous around them, and that you want to be with them constantly. I think Momo falls under that category.
Denki: He's hopeless...
Izuku: Wait, I have an idea! Why don't we let you both hang out, and we can see how Todoroki actually feels about Yaoyorozu.
Eijiro: That's actually a pretty cool idea, but how are we going to get Yaoyorozu to agree with it?
Shoto: Um, you guys?
Denki: Come on, guys, let's go to Yaoyorozu's room! We can make Todoroki ask her out himself.
Shoto: Ask her out? Kaminari, what do you mean?
Denki: I mean you should go ask her out on a date!
Shoto: A... "date"?
Eijiro: Man, don't even say that you don't know what a date is...
Shoto: I understand the basic concept, I just don't see how it's different from going outside with a friend.
Izuku: W- Well, if you love somebody romantically, you want to be with that person, right? If you ask Yaoyorozu out on a date for example, that would be your chance to get to spend time with her.
Shoto: If it somehow makes her more comfortable to talk to me about it, then I want to go on this... "date".
Denki: Awesome, man. Let's go to her room, come on!
Eijiro: Come on, Todoroki...
Shoto: Very well then.
Shoto, Eijiro, and Denki make their way to the stairs, and Izuku begins to follow, but he is suddenly stopped by somebody behind him.
Izuku: Oh. Yes, what is it-?
Izuku immediately gets flustered as he realizes Ochaco is standing behind him.
Ochaco: U-Umm... Deku?
Izuku: U-U-UR-R-R-RARAKA! (Gosh, she's so close!) H- Hey, what's up?
Ochaco: I j- just wanted to ask... ask you...
