Broken Past: Todoroki Shoto x Fem!Reader

Chapter 51: confession time

~(Y/N)'s POV~

It didn't take us long to reach the hospital. Shoto signed in as a volunteer to help us out too. Haikari had ignored me the whole way here. I sighed as we walked to the room where Kemuri, Yasei and Hana were waiting. As soon as we walked in Hana and Yasei almost tackled me in a hug. I could feel my clothes growing damp as the children burried their faces further into my clothes.

"Hey...hey...it's okay. Calm down." I laughed a little as I placed a hand on each of their heads and knelt down. "I'm sorry, please don't cry." I wiped away their tears and smiled. "(N/n)..." I looked up to Kemuri. His own eyes were filled with tears. I stood up and walked up to the teen and pulled him into an embrace, "Hey, don't you start crying on me too. I got enough of that from my class and brothers."

Kemuri laughed a little himself and burried his face in my shoulder, "Then maybe you shouldn't go getting into as much trouble then." After a few moments we pulled away. I looked over at the others to see Hana and Yasei playing with the two other boys. I looked at my brother and our eyes met for a second before he turned away. I sighed. "You okay?" I looked up at the older boy and smiled, "Y-Yeah. Kari just... hasn't talked to me much since the fight."

Kemuri's brows frowned, "Why?" I shrugged, "I don't know. But he won't talk to me about it. All I can do is give him time and hope that he comes around." Kemuri shock his head, "This isn't like him." The older boy began to walk towards my brother but I grabbed his sleeve. "What are you doing?" Kemuri gave me a small smile, "I'm going to talk to him. I've seen my family fall apart once, I won't let that happen again."

With that he walked over to my brother. I let a soft smile cross my lips, "Good luck."

~Haikari's POV~

"Haikari." I looked up to see Kemuri standing there with his hand extended towards me, "Come with me." Slowly I reached up and took his hand. The older boy lead me out of the room and into the small courtyard, my hand still held firmly in his. I couldn't help but feel my face heat up slightly. "K-Kemuri what are you doing?"

The boy didn't stop until we were in the middle of the courtyard. I looked into his eyes and couldn't help but admire their emerald colour. His white hair danced a little in the wind. "Why are you ignoring  (Y/n)?" His voice rang through the air, but it took me a moment to process his question. When i did I looked away (with difficulty) from his eyes, "Why does it matter to you?" My voice came out as a harsh whisper. Kemuri didn't seem fazed, "Kari, you guys are like my family. If something is bothering you I want to help."

I pulled out of his grip and took a step back, "It doesn't matter. You can't exactly help with this." I turned around bit Kemuri placed a hand on my shoulder, "I can at least lend an ear, be someone you can to. Please Haikari, what's going on?" My fist clenched at my sides, all the emotions I had been trying to keep un check were starting to flood my system. I couldn't take it, I broke.

I pushed the older boy of me roughly, Kemuri backed up a little in surprise. "You want to know what's wrong?! Fine! I'm sick of having to watch my sister get hurt over and over again. I'm sick of almost losing her everytime she runs into trouble. I'm sick of feeling weak, like I can't protect anything!! Some hero I'm going to be!" I throw my arms above my head and laughed, "I'm sick of all of these. Of having to have my heart torn to piece by my sister." I took a deep breath and calmed down, glaring at Kemuri. "Happy now?"

The boy shook his head, "Kari... this isn't like you. Think about what you're doing. Your pushing away your sister, someone who needs you to be by her side. She's worried about you." I laughed again a tear sliding down my cheek, "Oh! So that's why you're here! (Y/n) asked you to check up on me. Well you can tell her I'm fine." Kemuri sighed, "I won't lie to her when you obviously are not fine."

"Just leave me alone." I said as I took a few steps back towards the hospital. "I won't." Kemuri's boice broke, making me freeze for a moment, "I won't abandon you! I won't let someone go through that alone!! Especially when I lovr them!!" My breath hitched and I spun back around to face him. Kemuri's green eye's were wide with fear, tears ran down his face like rain. "Kemuri..." I couldn't think of what to say.

Kemuri placed a hand over his mouth and backed up. He turned around and ran from the hospital. "KEMURI!!" I called out to him but he soon disappeared from my sight. I took a moment to process what had just happened. "Oh gods..." I placed a hand over my own mouth as fresh tears surfaced, "What did I just do..?"

I wasted no time in running back into the room with the other. I burst through the door panting. Shoto and  (Y/N) looked up at me shocked, "Kari? What'swrong?" My sister walked up to me and wiped the tears from my eyes. "I-I messed up. Kemuri ran off I don't know where." (Y/N) took in a sharp breath, "What did you do?" I looked down shaking slightly. "He asked me if I was okay, and I freaked out. I started yelling and he... said he loved me a-and I froze up. He ran before I could say anything."

My sister sighed and turned to Shoto, "Stay here and watch these two. We're going to find Kemuri before he hurts himself." She then turned back to me, "We will split and you will tell him your own feelings. You both deserve each other and to be happy, I've told you this before." I just nodded as (Y/N) laughed. "Now let's move." The two of us run out of the hospital and split up almost immediately.

I looked everywhere. It was starting to get dark and rain started to fall. I ran into a park, panting. The sound of sobbs caught my attention. My head snapped up and there, standing a few meters in front of me, was the person I was looking for. Slowly I made my way up to him, trying not to let him know I was there. Now I was right behind him. I reached out and grabbed his sleeve, startling the poor boy. Kemuri's bloodshot eyes locked on to my figure. 

He tried to pull away and run, but I didn't let him. "Kemuri." He looked down still struggling weakly, "Please... just forget what I said... actually just forget about me." His voice broke again. I felt a lump form in my throat as my chest tightened. "Please... look at me..." My voice was weak, but he listened. I took a moment to look him over.

His white hair was stuck to his face. His usually bright green eyes were bloodshot, teary and dull. His clothes were soaked through, and I can only image mine were to. (And I was wearing a white shirt...great.) He looked like how he was when we first found him. No! I won't let that happen. I won't let him reach that point again!

"If you're going to just stare at me then please just let me go." He looked down at the ground. My grip tightened on his sleeve as I made a choice. With my other hand I grabbed the collar his shirt and pulled him down, connecting our lips. His were cold and i could tell he was suprised. I smiled a little as O pulled away, "I'm not letting you go anywhere." Kemuri was shocked for a moment before he started to tear up again. "I thought-"

I shock my head, "You didn't let me reply before you ran off." I laced my fingers with his and tested my head on his shoulder, "I've loved you for awhile... I just... wasn't sure if I should tell you, but now I'm sure." I laughed a little and looked into his eyes. I brushed some of the hair drom his face, " Will you, Hinotenshi Kemuri, be my boyfriend?" My hand rested on his cheek, Kemuri leaned into it and nodded.

I smiled softly at him and placed a short kiss on his lips once again before taking his hand, "come on. We should had back and get out of the rain." Kemuri smiled back wiping his eyes, "Y-Yeah. Sounds good."
