A week later, Y/n's phone buzzed in her pocket with a message as she was on her way back from her mid-morning trip to the grocery store. She held all the bags in one hand and paused in the middle of the sidewalk to check it.
Unknown: Just released the song. CDs aren't in stores yet but an autographed copy has been sent to you as you requested. Your work was appreciated. Please delete this number once you have read the message.
Sincerely,
Shouto Todoroki.

Of course, he sends his texts like formal letters.
Y/n deleted the message. She didn't necessarily blame Todoroki for being so cautious. If word got out that one of Tokyo's top bands weren't actually writing their own songs, it would be bad publicity. Especially for Shouto, considering the attention his family was already getting with the wanted arsonist who went by 'Dabi', actually being Touya Todoroki.
Y/n preferred keeping quiet anyway. She preferred not being recognized on the street, having to worry about paparazzi and the press, not seeing her own face on billboards or whatever famous people's lives were like. Plus, the hush money she made from these types of deals was what allowed her to maintain her lavish lifestyle without having to take up an actual full-time job.
She was talented and capable enough to go pro, even as a one-man-show...but she just chose not to.
"Wasted potential"
Was what her mother called her the last time they'd seen each other.
Tch. Why am I remembering that now?
