*todoroki's pov*

"Hey midoriya bakugo is coming over so you might want to take uraraka somewhere else so we don't start a fight or call each other names. Mean it is bakugo"

"Ok, I will. Thanks for telling me!" Midoriya says as he walks to get uraraka and tell her she needs to go right now, we were having bro time. She would understand because she's uraraka it's not like she hasn't done it to us ever.....I think.
I see midoriya start to walk out the door behind uraraka and I don't mean to blurt out but I do. "Midoriya stay-"

"But kacchan will yell at me" he says looking at me like I was crazy having bakugo and him in the same room. "It's fine midoriya if he even try's to hurt you I'll try and protect you" I smile and say giving him a reassuring attitude so he could stay.
"Ok I'll stay todoroki"
I smile at his statement and wave uraraka goodbye. Midoriya closes the door and I grab him by the arm. Midoriya I didn't invite bakugo over I just needed to tell you something that I know you won't tell anyone about. I throw him on the couch and sit on the table in front of him.
"You can't tell anyone. Not All Might, not uraraka, not bakugo, not anyone or anything"
"What is it todoroki? Your kinda scaring me"
"This is something as your roommate I should tell you. I don't know how you'll react and that's the most scariest part. I want you to except me for who I am and not see me as anything but a hero and the person you've e always known....I-I'm gay" I say as I look down at my trembling hands that had been taken off of his arm once I threw him on the couch in front of me.
"That's great todoroki! But I don't quite understand what you mean by gay. Like happy or the other type"
"The other type" my voice starts to tremble as I tell him this without trying to cry.
"That's cool Todoroki! I accept who you are no matter what you are" he says in a brightly, sunny and cheerfully tone of voice which make me feel better and wipe the tears from my eyes.
"Can I hug you midoriya?" I say standing up in front of him afraid of what he'll say.
"Sure todoroki" he hugs me and I feel a warmth of embrace and acceptation. I try to gather my feelings but all I really want to do is stand here my whole life and just hug him forever. The feeling of a thousand bricks have been lifted off my shoulders. Bakugo already knows but that's because it slipped when we were playing a little end of the year high school game and underage drinking. I think it was spin the bottle and you had to tell a deep secret or you would never be thought of the same again. As bros we didn't want to kiss each other. There were no girls. So secrets are great enough.
Every secret you would drink a big gulp of beer or take a shot. Me being me, stupid me took really big drinks of beer by the time it's my turn again I'm out of it. A little more than the rest. I very drunkenly say, "I'm gay" then everyone just starts cheering and I take a big gulp.
I ask everyone we played with, which is just kirishima, Sero, kamanari, bakugo, and I, if they remember anything from last night and they all said no except for bakugo. There was a word to describe how I felt. Was it...ashamed? No. It was embarrassed. It was truly terrifying that someone found out. I was not ready to tell anyone but I did. I was scared he would tell everyone. But he didn't. I was so thankful. I want to be able to tell everyone but I always know I have that burden on my shoulders called a dad.
After that spin the bottle thing I ask bakugo if maybe I could live with him until college which was maybe 2 weeks away. Luckily he said yes and his mom was so nice to me. Dad was welcoming, at least what I thought was. I never really had a dad and son experience that didn't have to do with not getting hurt or training. They knew that and they would treat me as their new son and joke and play around with me. It was fun. I wish I had had a childhood like that. It was funny seeing bakugo get yelled at by his mom. I wouldn't call it mean because his dad would laugh or sometimes chuckle and say break it up.
I finally felt a feeling that I never have had in the moment when I hugged midoriya and when I stayed at bakugo's . I felt loved, excepted, like I was a new person, a much better person.

*midoriya's pov*
I'm being thrown on the couch and then see todoroki sit in front of me. It happened so quickly I had to catch my breath until he said he needed to tell me something that was important and the fact bakugo wasn't coming anymore, that he never was coming, he had to be in a room with just me. I was confused. There were some things I wanted to tell him but I don't ever think I would be able to. My mom accepts me but I knew that not everyone would.
I was shocked at what he told me after a while of explaining. He was gay. I tried to act like I didn't understand but in reality I knew what he meant. I felt the same way too.
"...Like happy or the other type" I say not realizing how I said the other type I felt so bad after he starts to tremble in his words and I felt him about to cry after he said those words back to me. He stood up, I saw tears falling from his eyes and I knew without him telling me he needed a hug so I hugged him. I wanted to tell him I felt the same way I just couldn't make out the words to tell anyone this right now. All I know is that I was going to accept it and treat him the same as I always do, but I also would watch for his feelings and make sure not to say anything negative. I hug him tighter and rest my head on his chest and look up at him.
I want to tell him now while we are in such a nice accepting mood.
"Todoroki..."
"Yes midoriya"
"I am too. I didn't want to say because I thought you wouldn't accept me or get a different roommate I was scared-"
