Sports Festival (1)

"Sports Festival. I'm excited for this but I also feel lazy to join." I sighed, pouting.

"Why not? This is the moment for you to shine! Show the Pro-Heros that you are a compatible companion for them! They can make you into their side-kicks!" Ochako cheered.

"But I already met so many Pro-Heros, furthermore I can just create my own company. Not like it's that hard once they see me and my quirks haha..." I scratched the side of my neck.

They seemed confused with what I said and I nearly choked myself.

" W-Well! I believe Deku is gonna do very well! Right? I believe with that cool quirk of yours, you can just push anyone out of the battle and you can win!" Deku, who was standing turned to me and gave a smile, agreeing with me before he started to mutter again.

'Typical Deku...' We all thought.

Suddenly Todoroki appeared infront of Deku.

"Midoriya, I am going to defeat you. I'm stronger than you and I'm hereby claim that I'm going to beat you in this sports festival."

All of us were silent. Surprised by the way how Todoroki was just stating his harsh words.

"Woah, chill out Todobro!" Ejirou placed his hand on Todoroki's shoulder.

"We're not here to have fun and make friends." Todoroki brushed Eji's hand away.

I could tell Eji was feeling shocked.

(3rd person POV)

You stepped up to Todoroki.

He turned to you.

"Look, Matsuki. I'm not wasting my time on making friends and have fun to slack around here-" You slapped him in the face, causing gasps from the whole class.

You stared at him with your two very own dark maroon eyes. Although Katsuki had your mother's eyes, you had a combination of your parents eyes.

"Just because you want to show that stupid old man that you're gonna win this by using your mom's quirk doesn't mean you have to treat us that way. We are here as a family even if we have to fight each other, in the end, we would still be grow together as a family."

Todoroki looked at you with a shocked face.

"Win this sports festival all you want but never say you aren't here to make friends and have fun because if it wasn't for all of us this amazing class wouldn't exist. I wouldn't be here as your own closest friend if it wasn't for you who talked to me first on that day." He kept quiet.

"Remember Todoroki, we are here, I'm always here for you," You cupped his scar and gently rubbing it.

He sighed gently to the touch of your hand to his scar. He felt like he was loved and cared by someone who truly cares for him. The feeling gave him butterflies in his stomach. He enjoyed the feeling, touching your hand that was rubbing his scar gently. For a moment, he forgot everything that was happening.

"Guys we need to get going for the start of the event." Ejirou spoke, ruining the calm feeling that Todoroki was having.

You removed your hand from his scar, about to leave the room with the others. He felt as if he wanted that feeling once again, reaching out to you but he stopped.
Realising that he needs to focus on this Sports Festival, he stood there alone, thinking of things to do.

"Snowflake?" He called out.

"Yes, Peppermint? Something wrong?" You looked at him with a worried face.
