Todoroki dropped the blankets back on the bed and scurried over to the bathroom, knocking on the door and not waiting for a reply before violently shoving it open anyways.

He had a sinking feeling in his chest because the door being unlocked was probably a strong indication that y/n wasn't in there, but he went in calling y/n's name anyways.

"y/n??"

His heart dropped when the lights in the bathroom were still off and there was no sign of y/n, just him standing in the darkness with his distressed looking reflection barely visible in the bathroom mirror. Scrambling to throw on a shirt and only successfully buttoning up two or three buttons properly as he exited the room (not caring about how he looked), he made his way to the lobby where the front desk reception was.

"Excuse me..." Todoroki was out of breath, his face fell when he looked up. He was displeased to see that that the receptionist was different than the one last night, because now, he would have to do some additional explaining. "Have you seen a girl about this height-" He paused to lift his hand up in the air, dangling it somewhere underneath his neck. "with (hair length) h/c hair and e/c eyes...oh, and pointy cat ears." This time, Todoroki's hands went towards the top of his head, his fingers making small triangular motions.

"No, sorry I haven't."

"...Are you sure?"

The receptionist sighed, seeing the distraught look flash in his eyes before he focused his attention to the ground.

"Look, I've been here for hours...if you're uh, little friend, decided to sneak out before you woke up...I would have seen her." Her eyebrow raised in a suggestive way, especially after raking in his disheveled appearance.

Todoroki tilted his head up, his own eyebrow raising as confusion crossed his features for a second before realizing what she was getting at. A blush crept its way onto his cheeks and to his ears.

"No, she's not a-" Todoroki started to clarify the situation to the woman while shaking his head.

But then he realized there were more important matters at hand, like finding y/n, so he just shut up and quickly thanked the woman for her (not so helpful) help and ran back to the room. When he got back and silently closed the door behind him, his head dropped and he even felt his body tremble slightly.

"y/n, where are you...?" Todoroki mumbled, his head slowly lifting, revealing the prominent lines on his forehead and the grief in his eyes.

His brows furrowed, eyes darting to the bed when he heard muffled noises coming from it. Remembering what he had seen earlier when he woke up, he cautiously walked over, pulling the covers off the bed again.
