《Water and Ice | Shoto Todoroki》Chapter 28-In Sickness and in Health
Advertisement
I felt warm arms wrap around me. The temperature began to get warmer. My eyes partially opened, but I could barely see anything through the darkness. As I slipped into unconsciousness, I felt his warmth. The only warmth in the cold dark abyss.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My eyes opened to a partially lit room. My vision adjusted and I looked around. It seemed like I was in the hospital again. From what I could see out the window, it was early in the morning.
Then I saw Todoroki.
I nearly jumped when I realized he was next to me. He was sitting in a chair next to me, still holding my hand. It looked like he was slumped over, sleeping, but heat still radiated from him. Was he the one keeping me warm this whole time? I sat up, careful not to wake him.
After a few minutes, a nurse came in.
"I see you're awake. That's good." She said as she walked over.
She looked at Todoroki.
"Poor boy. He's been sitting there ever since you got here. He's been a great help in keeping you warm." She said.
I looked over at him. He had been there this whole time?
"Are you feeling any better, honey?" She asked me.
"Yeah. I feel a lot better. I'm not exactly sure what happened though." I admitted.
"It sounds like you had a bad case of hypothermia. They didn't give me all the details, but it sounds like something like this happened before?" She checked my vitals as she spoke.
I nodded.
"I had some problems with it before. I heard the doctor say I might have Thermal Seizures from time to time." I explained and she nodded.
"It sure sounds like a Thermal Seizure. You should be able to leave in a few hours though. But I would recommend keeping that boy close by, you'll still need the heat." She looked at both of us.

I nodded and looked at Todoroki again. It seemed like I would have to start making a list of all the times he had saved me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Todoroki's eyes slowly opened and I looked over at him. He sat up and let go of my hand, which he'd held the whole time as he slept. I finished up my food and set the tray on the table beside me.
"Y/n? Are you feeling ok?" He asked.
"Much better, thanks to you." I responded.
He checked me over, as if looking for injuries.
"Are you sure...you're ok?" He asked again.
"It wasn't that bad. I'm pretty sure I just fell and got cold. How did you even see me, anyway?" I asked.
"I was going to get some water. I heard a thud and went over to see what had happened. I saw you and immediately called an ambulance. Since they needed to keep you warm, they asked me to come and provide heat until they could find a better way to get your temperature up. I stayed to make sure you were ok, but I guess I fell asleep at some point." He explained.
I nodded. The nurse came in a few minutes later.
"Ok, honey. You should be all set. You can go back to the school now." She said with a smile.
I thanked her and started to get up from the bed. My knees were a little weak and I almost fell over, but Todoroki caught me. He helped me walk out until I could do it on my own. We went outside and saw a car waiting with one of the staff members in it.
"Hop in, you're going back now."
