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...
