A/N: Just wanted to say, they're in their second year at UA now. Also, this was heavily inspired by 'Bruised and Broken', a fanfiction by SlothStories101
TW: mention of abuse (this counts for most chapters)
Todoroki's POV:
My eyes shot open suddenly. I was laying on my bed, in my japanese styled bedroom, panting heavily while staring at the plain ceiling above me. 'Damn it... another nightmare..', I thought to myself, sighing. My sleep rhythm already wasn't great, but with nightmares disturbing my sleep, it was even worse.
After a while, I grabbed my phone, squinting at the dimly lit display which said '6:34 am'. Deciding that I might as well get up, I yawned while sitting upright and stretching. I got up slowly and made my way to my bathroom. Turning on the light, I saw that I had some dried blood sticking to my face and matting my hair. I also noticed that I had what looked like a bruise right under my grey eye. The old man did like using me as his punching bag, didn't he? I slowly walked to the shower, as to wash away the dried blood before school. Carefully slipping out of my clothes, I saw all the little scars and bruises littering my body. As soon as I stepped into the shower, I turned on the water and tried to relax at the sensation of the mid-temperature water hitting my back. It wasn't exactly pleasant having water hitting all your bruises and scars, you know.
Before stepping out of the shower, I made sure to wash away all the red stains of the blood I had just washed off of me. Tying a towel around my waist, I make my way towards the mirror to check whether I had washed away all the blood. After checking this, I went back into my room and towards my wardrobe, to get out my uniform, and some spare bandages.
When I was done getting ready, I walked out of my room and down the stairs, only to be faced with Natsuo getting ready to leave, Fuyumi making herself some breakfast and the old man eating some of his breakfast aggressively. Natsuo who was currently tying his shoelaces, stood up to ruffle my hair, a grin on his face: "Good mornin' buddy. Did ya sleep well?" My response to this was a simple hum. Turning to greet Fuyumi, I instead of her warm grey eyes, came face-to-face with the fuming turquoise eyes of my father. Gulping, I carefully avoided his eyes and chose my words before speaking: "Good morning, f-father..." Damn it! Of course I had to stutter now of all times, right? Waiting for his reaction, I felt both Fuyumi and Natsuo's gaze on me and the old man.
"What did I tell you about looking at me when speaking, Shoto?!", he practically yelled, before slapping me right across the face and storming off to his room, but not without saying "And don't you dare come home late for training again!" before slamming his bedroom door.
I just stood there while Fuyumi came over with sadness in her eyes, to cup my reddening cheek while caressing (I think that's the right word) it carefully with her thumb before embracing me in a hug. After a moment or two, I felt Natsuo's warm hands around me as well as Fuyumi's.
"I- I'm sorry, Sho...", I heard Fuyumi slightly sob into my shoulder, her voice a little muffled by the fabric of my school uniform. It always breaks my heart, hearing her voice like this. "Fuyumi, I'm fine, but please.. stop crying..."
When my siblings had finally let go of me, I went to put on my shoes, slung my bag over my shoulder and left for school saying a quick bye to my elder brother and sister.
I was walking up to UA's gates, when I saw Iida and Uraraka standing there, seemingly deep in conversation. Not really being in the mood to socialize at the moment, I tried avoiding them...
...and failed.
Third Person POV:
"Oh hey Todoroki!", the said brunette called brightly, waving as she saw her friend. This caused Iida to shush her because she was "being too loud". Inwardly sighing, Todoroki turned and walked towards the two. "Hello Iida, Uraraka", the half and half teen simply responded with a small nod. "How are you, Todor-", Iida was cut off by someone a few meters away yelling "Hey! Iida-kun, Uraraka-san, Todoroki-kun!"
The three of them turned seeing a specific short green haired male running towards them smiling widely.
Soo... I finally finished the first chapter of this. It might take me awhile to update, with online lessons, homework, the fact that I only started a different book yesterday which I also need to continue and I'm honestly quite lazy. I'll probably be able to update multiple times a week though. Also, happy birthday Todoroki!! :D
If you wouldn't mind, some feedback would be great, so that I can improve the story.
Anyways, I hope you still have a lovely day/night! :)
