Drama

Izuku woke up to the sound of his blaring alarm. It was Sunday so his alarm shouldn't be going off right, well he had training with All might in 30 minutes. He tried to push his lifeless body upward to get ready in vain falling to the floor. He had gotten so little sleep he could barely force himself to walk, how could he possibly train? He had to try even missing one day could set him back and mean the difference between passing the entrance exam and falling. He couldn't let his dream fall apart because he was a little tired. No, he was overthinking things, he should just get ready. He fumbled around his room trying to get ready in the few minutes he had, he had spent far too much time laying on the floor letting his thoughts consume him. Eventually, he had gotten ready, hopping out the door while slipping on his shoes

"Young Midoriya what happened to you, you look awful", All might exclaimed, brows furrowed in concern. "I'm okay, I just missed a little sleep that's all", "Young Midoriya you need to get enough sleep or you won't be able to train", All might scolded. Izuku didn't say anything, he felt a sense of dread wash over him. He started his clean up but it was evident that he was off. All might could tell, it wasn't just a lack of sleep there was something else distracting him.

"Young Midoriya, what agitates you?"

"Huh, oh, it's nothing"

"I'm well aware that there is something on your mind, you're being disrupted by it and that intern leads you to put in less effort when training", All might explained trying to pry answers from his apprentice. Izuku sighed knowing he was caged, he couldn't deny it no matter how much he attempted to. "Is it the entrance exams?" All might question hoping it wasn't that, Izuku needed to be confident if he was going to even attempt being a hero. "I am worried about that but that's not it-", 'What else could be on his mind?', All might pondered hoping for Izuku to continue. "-well I think I may have found my soulmate, it's only a hunch but I'm able to slightly feel now, even if it's not the person I think it is it might have just been someone around at that time, but no one else was around, and that boy did stare at his hand looking quite puzzled so there's a good chance that he could be my soulmate, then again I might have just missed the others around us, and someone else could have been his soulmate, and multiple people don't have their sense of touch so it could be anyone around us at the time, but it would be difficult to find them, in that case, considering that I have no clue what anyone else around us looked like-", Izuku's rambling was cut off by All might's hand, "Seriously kid your babbling is unbelievable". All might removed his hand but it was quickly replaced with Izuku's as his face colored in embarrassment, he hadn't realized he had spoken out loud but he did start out loud. "What was that?", All might asked, he could hear noise coming from Izuku but couldn't make out what he was saying due to his hand(he's been saying this out loud too). If possible Izuku's face turned a darker shade of red as he exclaimed, "Nothing!", removing his hand. "Right-", All might sighed, "-you should go home it's getting late and I have work to attend to", "Oh, yeah", Izuku replied feeling slightly disappointed that his time with the pro hero had come to an end for the day. They bid their farewells walking off in separate directions. As Izuku walked home he contemplated what he would do eventually deciding upon studying a bit and possibly going to that cafe again since he thoroughly enjoyed their matcha cake.

Shoto had woken up approximately 30 minutes ago and was now sitting in the only place he really felt safe the cafe. He had found this place since his close friend Momo and her girlfriend, Kyoka Jirou, worked here, over time he had come to find many other friends here. He had just placed his order and was now waiting at the counter while conversing with Ochako Uraraka, another of his friends he had met due to their employment at the cafe.

"What's wrong Todoroki-kun? You look stressed", She questioned concerned, no one knew about what really happened in Shoto's house but they knew he had it rough.

"It's nothing Uraraka-chan, I'm fine", it was clear to Ochako that he was lying, they'd been friends for years and she could tell that he was upset.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure", Ochako really wanted to know what was happening so she could cheer him up! But how? A lightbulb went off in her head as she thought of the perfect idea, she could ask Momo for help, out of everyone Momo was the most dependable, and Shoto trusted her the most. Ochako jumped up from her seat rushing away to look for Momo in the back only to find there was only a single person in the kitchen, Tsuyu Asui, her best best friend. She ran over to her about to hug her until she noticed all the flour around the frog girl, changing her mind. She cheerfully greeted her also questioning where everyone else was.

"I'm not sure about the rest but I know Momo-chan and Jirou-chan went on break, and Kirishima-Kun went on a date. Ribbit"

"Oh", she muttered confused, there were many other people assigned to work in the kitchen where could they be? Whatever the case she knew where Momo was! She quickly thanks Tsuyu walking out the back exit finding Momo and Jirou sitting on the bench. "Hey, Momo-chan can you help me with something!"

It was around closing time so the few customers that had previously occupied the many seats had all left leaving the area completely deserted and leveling Shoto the only one left in the shop. Since everyone was quite busy he had been studying for the past few hours, he was really bored at this point, 3 hours of studying without a break can be tiring. But since the store had closed he would be able to spend time with his friends. From the double doors emerged a messy (Y/N), the manager of the store. Greeting Shoto with a warm smile while approaching the door to turn the sign.

________________________________________________________________________________

Just as their hand was about to reach the sign a short boy approached. "Fuck no", Shoto muttered dashing under a table at the far back. "Um... are you still open?", the boy's voice sounded weak and soft, Shoto knew that voice. 'Todoroki-kun would never act like that, he's hiding something' "Of course, please come in", (Y/N) allowed the boy to enter, normally they wouldn't make any exceptions but this time it was different. Shoto stared at the manager in disbelief mouthing, 'I thought I could trust you!', dramatically placing a hand over his chest, receiving an eye roll in return. The grenette was extremely confused, why was there someone under one of the tables? He decided to ignore it and just order, he was rather tired after training with the number one hero, he could use the sugar. The manager of the cafe rushed back through the double doors in a panic wanting to impress the customer, "If we impress this guy we might be able to get Todoroki-kun a boyfriend!", they shouted once the doors although their voice was still audible to the two outside. The few in the kitchen immediately began to prepare the order making sure to be quick but have the utmost quality, 'It would be helpful if the others were here', Kyoka thought. As if (Y/N) could hear her thoughts she spoke, "Wait, where are the others?", only silence followed, all the girls knew better than to mess with (Y/N). "I'll kill them when they come back", they muttered angrily whisking the batter.

The room was completely silent, while Shoto tried not to be found Izuku sat uncomfortably in his seat knowing that someone was under a table.

"If we impress this guy we might be able to get Todoroki-kun a boyfriend!"

The statement was clearly audible throughout the whole room causing Izuku to blush furiously, he couldn't be sure that they were talking about him but that strange boy and him were the only people in the store. 'WAIT! TODOROKI! THAT'S THE NAME FROM MY DREAM!', he internally screamed he might actually meet his soulmate thanks to these people! He took a moment to more closely study the boy under the table hoping not to be caught. 'OH MY GOSH!', the boy he saw had one half of his hair was white while the other was red. As for his eyes, one was a bright blue and the other was a light grey. Splayed across his blue eye was a red mark, most likely a burn or birthmark.
