My Icyhot Boss [Shoto Todoroki x Reader]✔️

♛14♛

♥♥♛♚♛♥♥

You wake up and hear the sound of Shoto's breaths. You're still pushed up against his chest in the same position as the previous night, feeling the warmth from his body.

As you lay there, you listen to his beating heart as if it was music. You wonder why he wasn't mad at you the night before. You're glad he isn't. You knew eventually he would find out or you would end up telling him about it.

You curl up closer to him as you lay there, hoping this moment will never end. Over time you went from thinking of him as a boss to a close friend. Now you think you're falling for him. You are falling for Shoto Todoroki. Someone who on the outside shows almost no emotion, but when you get to know him he's kind and shows his personality and emotions better.

While in your thoughts you feel Shoto move. You don't know whether he's awake or not until you hear him say, "What are you thinking about?"

You hesitate before saying, "That depends on what you were going to talk to me about yesterday."

"Touche." You giggle as he unwrapped his arms from around you. "Do you really want to know what I was going to tell you Bunny?"

You look him in his eyes and nod, "Yeah."

"Well. I don't know if I'd be able to explain it. I don't even know what I'm feeling enough to explain it, especially now that I know it is actually you, y/n."

You think about it for a moment, slowly coming to a conclusion. "Was it about me?" You ask slowly.

Shoto puts his face in the pillow to hide a blush from you and nods. He knows he probably looks like a blushing teenager right now, but he doesn't care.

"What if you just pretended I was Bunny and didn't know I'm y/n. Do you think you could try then?" You suggest.

He turns his head the opposite way of you and says, "I don't know. I don't even know what I'm feeling, so I'm not even sure you could help."

"It's worth a try. Just explain everything as if I was Bunny."

He nods and lays down on his back, looking up at the ceiling. You do the same thing to hopefully make it not so awkward for Shoto. You know he said it's about you, but you're scared to know what it is exactly. Does he secretly hate you and not recognize the feelings or something? All kinds of thoughts run through your head as you patiently wait for him to start speaking.

Shoto closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. He keeps his eyes closed as he begins to speak, "So, I'm going to pretend like I'm not speaking to Bunny, right?"

"Yes. Just pretend like I'm a stranger or like you don't know that I am Bunny."

"Okay... So, there's this woman who I work with... God, i feel so stupid."

"Just continue, stop overthinking it Shoto."

He takes another deep breath before continuing. "This woman is my assistant. At first, she didn't speak to me too much, but she started helping me out by getting me tea every morning. I had thought about speaking to her multiple times about perhaps hanging out, but I was always too afraid to even though she's friendly." Shoto pauses and glances at you.

He closes his eyes again before continuing, "The day after my first time here, she decided to speak to me first. It surprised me but it made an actual conversation easier. She took me out for lunch every day after that too. Over time she started to become a friend, even adopting a cat that looks like me, naming it after me. It made me feel happy in a way."
