"I thought I'd find you here."
You weren't even bothered to check who entered your dorm room, but you knew that clear voice so well.
"Sorry, Shouto," you managed a short reply. You were spread on your bed in your favorite loose shirt and All Might cartoon boxer shorts. The light-colored curtains were drawn open, but the windows were closed, and despite the air conditioning cranked up, it didn't help that today was one of those arid weekend afternoons that made you feel stuffy and heavy and absolutely lazy.
"I sent you a message," Todoroki Shouto, one of the best (and cutest, as your friends remarked) young heroes in the making, who also happened to be your dearest boyfriend, made his way into your dorm room without you even noticing. It was hard to maintain focus when all you could think about was trying to cool down. You felt the bed shift as he sat down beside you.
"Sorryβ¦" You lazily reached for your phone on your bedside drawer. "It's justβ¦ Too hot to even move!"
"I see," came a short reply. "Is there anything I can do to ease your discomfort?"
"Do you wanna build a snowman?" You joked, sitting up to meet his gaze before your expression melted into slight confusion. He looked like he was dressed to go out with his light blue dress shirt and dark pants. Regardless, you met his presence with inert excitement. "I'm glad you're here."
Todoroki gave you a small smile before reaching out for your cheek with his right hand, but the coolness of his touch was still a little surprising. Still, you happily sank into his caress despite how chilly his palm was.
"Shouto, w-would youβ¦" You raised your arms and playfully opened and closed your hands. "Would you like to cuddle?"
"Isn't it a little too hot for cuddling?"
A pout graced your face. "N-Not if I'm only hugging your right side!"
"What a selfish girlfriend," he sighed before eventually chuckling in defeat. As though he could refuse such an earnest request from you. "I'll forgive you even though you forgot that we were supposed to go out today."
You froze on the spot and felt your face heat up when he started to unbutton his dress shirt. "O-Oi! Wh-What are you doing?!"
He had an inner shirt, much to your relief, and he made his way beside you, lying down rather comfortably on his back before beckoning you to crash into him as well. He dropped his right arm and patted the light-colored sheets with a rather coy smile on his face.
"Shoutoβ¦"
He was still grinning. "Come closer, then. Let's stay cool today."
πΊ Author's note:
This fic is based on Rebecca Mock's art piece with the same title.
This is a rework of a chapter from my old MHA fic collection! I plan on revisiting some of my old work and getting to crosspost them here... eventually! There's just something about a mysterious and reserved guy being coy with his girlfriend... that makes me all giddy!
Apart from being one of my favorite pieces back when I started writing for MHA, I believe this fic happens to be a fan favorite of sorts, too. This was years ago and I gave permission for it to be recorded as an x listener audio fic. You're free to send me a message if you'd like a link to the audio fic!
lets DANCE baby
THIS IS SO CANON I LOVE SLOW BURN
Thinking abt Todoroki Shouto, and how he isn't as dense as he comes across...
When reading fanfics Shouto is always oblivious and dense, and yes, I wholeheartedly agree with thatβ
But i feel like Shouto also does it on purpose, you know? Like, one day you're both talking, and he's just soo up close to your face. 'He probably doesn't realize' you rationalize inside your head, but no, he's definitely aware of the affect he has on you. Your reactions are cute, he thinks, cute in the way he can't seem to stop teasing you.
I think he'd pay extra close attention to people that are close to him, people he holds dear, so whenever you stutter, or your mind goes and blank and you think 'Oh, I hope he didn't notice thatβ' he does.
I think that's why I like the idea that he's actually a little menance, but the worst part is that he gets away with it !!
Whether it's saying something so humbling and out of depthβ something that many would take offense to but think, 'well, he didn't really mean it that wayβ that's just how he is', NOPE!! he definitely meant it that way, but not clarifying anything saves him the trouble so why should he care yk...
Though, he mostly (all the time really) does it with you. Getting up in your personal space, saying things like "When we're on a mission together, I feel like I can handle anything as long as you're the one by my side"β and it flusters you sooo badly, but no, this is Shouto we're talking about, clearly he didn't mean it like that, right? Right? (And the entire time, he's trying to bite down a Cheshire grin)
So, yes, in the earlier years of being a hero he wasn't really great at communication and unaware of social cuesβ but now, he's practically evil with the way he acts around you.
Sometimes you think you see it; you're going to call him out on his behavior. There's no way he didn't know what he was doing when he held your face in his hands on a hot summer day, pulling you close and saying, "Is this cooling you down?" (No, actually, this was just heating you up)
But whenever you do call him out on itβ
"You know, you're not that slick." You say one day, ice cream cone in hand as you walk next to him, bumping him with your hip. Your eyes slide over towards his mismatched ones, gauging his reaction closely. If you were anyone else you would have probably missed the slight quirk of his lip; the uplift of his brows. But you don't, and the grin on your face overtakes most of your features. Maybe today will be the day he finally admits it. Instead he doesn't speak, takes one lick of his mint chocolate ice cream and then he turns to you, a silent question appearing on his face. A taunt.
You let out a humourless breath, cone tight in your hand as you point it in his direction. Accusing him of something both of you know you won't be able to prove, but he knows you know, and you know he knows you know. But, it'd be really great if he could just admit it, because it's almost like a game.
A game between just the two of you.
"Don't try and act blonde now!" You chide, biting on your bottom lip to control the smile that tries to force it's way on your face.
Shouto smiles at your antics, leaning in close to you, and all of a sudden he completely invades your senses. The smell of mint on his lips is so close, and yet so far. He stares deeply into your eyes, and just as you thought you were getting closer to the truthβ he brings his thumb up to wipe absent mindlessly at the corner of your mouth. He pulls back, looks you in the eyes, and takes a tentative lick at the frosty flavour on his thumb. With a cat-like tilt to his head, he says, "I'm not blonde?"
But, the worst part is whenever he speaks about you to others, he speaks so fondly of you; like one would do about their partnerβ but you guys aren't together. Sometimes he does it right in front of your face whenever you guys are at a hero gala. Shouto sees you talking to a new and upcoming, young, pro-hero and he immediately comes to your side. With how close he is, and with the things he says to them, "I can never imagine myself without them by my side." It gives people the idea that you're both, you know, a thing.
Little do you know, he's been playing this 'game' ever since high school, and even though the two of you aren't exclusiveβ it doesn't mean he can't get in his fun.
Todoroki Shouto is not good for your health.

A few months into your relationship, Shouto catches on to your weird behavior around his apartment.
βI donβt want to ruin anything,β you finally admit when he notes his observationβabout how you tiptoe around his living room of designer furnishings, how you never seem to settle comfortably into his couch, how you carry his glassware with all the pomp and ceremony of an Olympic torch.
βThey are just things. This is a home,β Shouto says, like that at all negates the fact that you could break a single one of his salad bowls and spend the rest of your life repaying the debt.
βHella expensive things in a very nice home,β you reply.Β βI am not falling asleep and accidentally drooling onto your ten bajillion dollar couch, Shouto.β
Only the tiniest of creases between his brows tell you heβs displeased.Β βI would like you to be comfortable here. I do mean that they are just things.β
You shake your head. Shouto can be as unfussed as he wants, on his pro hero salary with his fat inheritance slapped on top like a dollop of cream on lifeβs richest slice of pie. But you were raised in a hand-me-down home, furniture and housewares either inherited or thrifted from generations past, and you are not about to play any kind of game that would leave his couch as worn down as your familyβs ancient, squashy sofa with the tears hidden on the undersides of the cushions.
βIβm good, Sho,β you say reassuringly.Β βIβm just going to take my best care of your things.β You pat his couch ever so lightly for emphasis, so gently it almost doesnβt make a sound.
Shouto watches you for a long moment. His eyes pick over you carefully, and he says nothing, until finally his expression shifts.Β
You watch with suspicion as his face suddenly goes meticulously blank, and you realize you know that look. Itβs the perfectly unreadable poker face that almost always precedes peak little shit behavior.
βWhatever thought you are having is a million percent no from me,β you say quickly, but Shoutoβs hand is already closing over your thigh, tugging you closer to him across the luxurious fabric of the very couch you have tried never to crease.
βShouto, do not fuck with this couch,β you tell him as the material of your pants makes a fwip across the sofa fabric. Shouto arches a perfect brow at you.
βIf you will not believe me that I do not care about the state of this couch,β he pronounces evenly, βthen I will just have to show you.β
Before you can even demand an explanation, heβs rearranging you to his liking, stretching out over you and pressing you down into the sofa with intent.Β
Then it dawns on you exactly what heβs about to do.
βWait, Shoβthe bedroomββ you garble out, as your heart rate picks up into double time under his anchoring weight.
Shouto lowers his face to yours, mismatched eyes glittering like gemstones in the low light.Β βWeβll get there love,β he says, his low, soft tone shivering right up your spine. βBut first, weβll start here.β
His gaze grows heavier with promise, and a long-fingered hand skims up the side of your shirt. Your breathing stills.Β
βIβm going to have you over every single surface in this apartment,β he says. βAgain and again, love. Until you understand that there is only one thing in this house that I consider priceless.β
His mouth presses to yours, softly, as he shifts into the cradle of your thighs.
βAnd that,β he says against your mouth, sounding satisfied at the little shivery exhale this draws out of you, βthat one, single priceless thingβ¦is you.β
"Endeavor needs to take responsibility" tell me you didn't read any of his actual dialogue without telling me.
Like oh my god, how are some people just so blind? He initiates the conversation around his behaviour and apology for such. He's the one taking steps to prove he deserves the chance to be seen as a changed man. He's accepted that he may very well die alone, hell he was willing to let Dabi kill him. This is one of the greatest character arcs I've ever seen and people just ignore it out of...what? Personal bias? At least acknowledge that he's doing the best he can within the circumstances. Seriously, what more do you want out of him?
I didn't choose this life, guys. He looked me (Shoto) dead in the eyes and said "I'm proud of you" and it stabbed me through the heart. I tried to fight it but the Sir Nighteye/Kiyotaka Ishimaru/Steven Universe kin inside me could not ignore it forever.
He and the rest of the Todorokis are all so wonderfully written. The storyline is incredible and so nuanced. The point of the story is not forgiveness, the point is to acknowledge that sometimes people fuck up and there's nothing you can do to change that, all you can do is heal and move forward. To say that everyone deserves the chance to do better if they simply try to do so.
KUROO I LOVE YOU KUROOOOO π
This shoto is real
having to explain exaggerations to shoto
βyouβre so handsome, i could die!β you exclaimed, looking at shoto as you sat at his familyβs dinner table, though it was just the two of you.
his hand froze, noβ his whole body froze. you could die? just because of how attractive he was?
shotoβs eyes widened and his mouth was slightly agape. he had to find a way to become less attractive, and quick! he didnβt know being handsome could kill someone. maybe he should be less around you or mess up his face so he wouldnβt be as appealing to youβ
βgod, i remember the first time i saw your smile. you flashed those pearly whites and i nearly dropped dead!β you chuckled, leaning your cheek against your fist, unaware of shotoβs panic.
could this really get any worse? first, you thought he was so handsome, and his looks could kill you! then, when he smiled you almost died? he gulped, ashamedly looking down at his food with sad eyes. he didnβt want to kill you, you were the love of his life.
you asked, βhoney, whatβs wrong?β and tapped your finger against the wood.
he thought for a moment, trying to rethink every decision he ever had with you. he didnβt want your relationship to end, and he didnβt want to be the reason you died.
βi didnβt know my looks could kill you.β
a laugh almost escaped your body, and your worried expression was quickly replaced with a smile. you covered your mouth and tried to hold back a chuckle, but you couldnβt help yourself. giggles came from your mouth, but you tried to keep it to a minimum so you could explain to shoto what you meant.
βbaby, iβm just joking! looks canβt actually kill someone, unless thereβs a quirk for that,β you mumbled the last part, tapping your chin in wonder, βiβm just saying that the first time i saw you, i fell in love with you because of how beautiful your smile was! your looks are amazing, sho, thatβs why iβm saying i almost always pass out whenever i see you. itβs outstanding how handsome you are.β
his breathing evened out and he placed his chopsticks down, mumbling something under his breath. he let out a small βoh,β then stated, βthank you.β
you nodded and continued talking to him, and he, of course, paid attention, but his cheeks were as red as a tomato. he tried to hold back a smile, shy from all of your compliments, although they were just an explanation.
shotoβs cheeks brought your thoughts away from your words and again, to him. you mumbled, βyouβre gonna be the death of me, sho.β
his eyes widened like they did last time, βhuh? waitβ ohβ¦β the two of you laughed it off and forgot about it the next morning.
hope u guys liked this one! i love shoto so muchhh :)
