The Other World [Midoriya, Bakugou, Todoroki x Reader]

Chapter 3: Scared?

[y/n]'s POV:

We continued to talk as we ate, and I learned about the boys' favorite things and what they enjoyed doing. After finishing the pizza, I quickly cleaned up, though Midoriya insisted on helping, I simply ignored his complaints and took their plates. Once placing the plates and cups into the dishwasher, I walked back into the living room and sat down on the couch, Bakugou on one side, Midoriya and Todoroki on the other.

"So what do you guys want to watch?" I asked, turning on the TV and going on to Netflix,

"I don't give a damn," Bakugou grumbled, throwing an arm around the back of the couch. I rolled my eyes at him,

"Of course you don't," I turned to the other two boys, "What about you guys?" They shrugged,

"I'm fine with whatever," Midoriya said, Todoroki nodded. I let out an exasperated sigh,

"You guys are no help!" They chuckled and I scrolled through my home page, "You know what? Fine." I clicked on my favorite show, "We are watching Criminal Minds." I clicked on the first episode, "We'll start at the beginning." The show started playing.

As a murder scene popped up, I felt Bakugou scooch a bit closer to me, so did Midoriya. I smirked slightly, bringing my legs up on the couch and sitting in a criss-cross position. As the murderer attacked the unsuspecting victim, the woman screamed, so did Midoriya. The boy screeched and jumped.

"What the fuck Deku!" yelled Bakugou,

"S-sorry!" the boy stuttered, I paused the show and looked at him,

"You good? We can watch something else if you want." I said, he shook his head.

"I-It's fine, really."

"You sure?" I ruffled his hair reassuringly. He let out a quiet squeal and his face turned bright red. I chuckled and unpaused the show. After a while, the murderer came back on the screen and I stole a glance at Midoriya. He was shielding his eyes and shaking a bit, I took his hand and squeezed it,

"You want to hold my hand?" I asked quietly, he nodded and squeezed my hand in return, I let out a low chuckled and refocused on the show. Bakugou's leg was now touching mine.

Midoriya's POV:

OMG! I'm holding [y/n]'s hand! I felt my face heat up and I could barely focus on the show playing in front of us. My scalp was still tingling from when she had run her hands through my hair. Why am I feeling this way about a girl I just met?

Todoroki's POV:

I glanced over at the blushing Midoriya, I glanced down and saw that his hand was clasping hers. I felt a throb in my chest, why though? Is my heart acting up? Is it some sort of disease? Should I tell [y/n]? I shook my head slightly and looked back over at the girl who was staring intently at the screen.

Bakugou's POV:

Why was that damn Deku holding [y/n]'s hand? And why isn't she pulling away? I fumed as I stared at the pair, wanting so desperately to punch Deku in the face. Another shriek from the TV caused me to shift a bit closer to [y/n]. My leg brushed up against hers and my heart nearly broke my ribcage. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye, looking to see if she was reacting to my touch as well, and praying that she couldn't hear my thumping heart. She didn't seem fazed at all and I slowly relaxed, letting my leg rest against hers. I stole another glance at her, she looked over, sensing my gaze and smiled at me before refocusing on the TV. Holy shit, what's wrong with me!? I thought as my heart started racing again.

[y/n]'s POV:

As I continued to watch the show, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned my head and a pair of mismatched eyes met mine. I nodded at me and he leaned over,

"Can I hold your hand too? I'm scared," he whispered. My eyes widened comically, Todoroki, scared? I was about to nod but I felt a callused hand grab my hand that wasn't in Midoriya's grasp. My eyes shot over to Bakugou who was suddenly very interested in the TV, a dark blush was adorning his chiseled face,

"Whatcha doing Bakugou?" I chirped, giving him a sly look, he refused to meet my gaze,

"Nothing." He responded, still not looking at me. I shrugged and looked back over at Todoroki,

"Sorry, it would seem as though Bakugou is also scared," I said teasingly, I felt Bakugou go stiff. Todoroki glared at the ash-blond,

"You know what? I have a solution," Todoroki grabbed my hand that Midoriya was holding and practically tore our hands apart,

"T-Todoroki!" cried Izuku, the poor boy was confused out of his mind. Todoroki slung my arm around the back of the couch, behind Midoriya then held my hand. I laughed,

"You guys are so needy!" the three boys blushed and I giggled. I slid my arm down from the back of the couch so it was resting on Midoriya's shoulders. He jumped slightly but soon relaxed, he even leaned into me a bit, "Is everyone good now?" I asked, giving them each an exasperated look,

"Sure, whatever," grumbled Bakugou, still clinging onto my hand. We continued to watch a couple episodes, Izuku ended up falling asleep, his head resting on my shoulder. Bakugou was actually quite interested in the show, it was about murder after all, and he seemingly forgot about his hand in mine and his thigh against my own. Todoroki's eyes were on the TV, but his mind seemed to be elsewhere. As another scream echoed out of the TV, Bakugou jumped and gripped my hand tightly, too tightly,

"Bakugou! Hand... crushing!" I squeaked, Bakugou looked down at our hands before quickly releasing my hand. I slipped my other hand out of Todoroki's grip and rubbed my hand,

"Sorry," Bakugou grumbled. I shook my head at him,

"It's fine," I paused the TV and nudged Izuku, "hey, Izuku, wake up," I whispered in the boy's ear, his eyes shot open and widened upon seeing my face mere centimeters from his. He squeaked and his face turned bright red, I smiled, he was too cute. "We should go to bed," I said, standing up and stretching out my back. I was rewarded with a series of satisfying cracks. I yawned and turned off the TV. "I'll show you guys to your room." I motioned for the three boys to follow me. I led them to the guest room across from mine. The room had one bunk bed as well as another twin against the other wall.

"There's also a pull out if none of you want the top bunk," I said, pulling out the mattress from under the bed. The boys nodded and Midoriya smiled at me sleepily. As they started fighting over who gets which bed, I went into my mother's bathroom and got them each a toothbrush. I came back and smiled when seeing that they had settled down. I handed them each a toothbrush,

"I don't have anything I can give to you guys as pajamas, but I'll work on that tomorrow. If you guys need anything else, I'm right across the hall." I closed the door and walked into my room and flopped onto my bed. I sighed, taking care of three needy teenage boys was tiring.
