《Return • Todoroki ff》Chapter 4

"Niko where were you?" My father asked.
"I was talking to my old classmates." My father gave me a nod and walked towards the main entrance with me following closely behind.
My father stopped in front of the car and opened the door for me to get in. I didn't say anything but returned his gesture with a smile.
The car ride back home was quiet mostly because I was trying to keep myself awake.
After what seems like ages my father finally announced that we were home and I immediately got off the car.
'I hate these heels..' I thought when I took them off and changed into my slippers before walking up to my room to take a shower.
After showering I walked out of the bathroom with my hair in a towel. When I was going about to collapse onto my bed. My phone rang signalling that I got a text.
I was mentally cursing at that person when I walked over to get my phone.
Unknown number, Niko
Yes it is and you are?
I didn't reply after that and just left him on read and changed his contact to Shoto with a heart emoji at the back of his name. I smiled with satisfaction as I walked to my bed and charged my phone. I laid on my bed staring at the ceiling before drifting to sleep a few minutes later.
My phone rang and I groaned in reply. As I reached over to my bedside table to snooze my alarm.
'Should I wake up? It's a Sunday..' I didn't think about that anymore because I fell into a deep slumber once again.
"Nikoooooooo!!" My brother whined as he jumped onto the bed next to mine.
"Oh my god what do you want!" I said as I sat up on my bed and I ran my fingers through my hair.
"I want to eat ramen." Asahi said as he lied down beside me.
"Are you crazy? Why are you telling me? Go tell the chefs or mum." I said as I lied down and pulled the covers over my head.
"But Nikooooo you make the best ramen!" Asahi said as he pulled the covers off my head and stared and me with his puppy eyes.

"Oh my god.. Why are you my brother I said as I got out of my bed and walked to the bathroom to get ready.
As Niko walked out of the bathroom her brother was sitting on her bed using his phone.
"Oh and also we don't have anymore ramen-"
"Asahi Hitori!" Niko shouted and her brother flinched.
"Sorry- I didn't know hehe."Her brother said smiling sheepishly.
Niko whined in reply as she grabbed her phone and wallet before walking down the stairs to the main entrance where she put on her shoes. After she wore her shoes she walked out of the door to buy ingredients to make ramen.
"Screw Asahi.." Niko cursed as she walked along the streets of Japan.
Niko plugged in her earpiece as she listened to her playlist. After she got the ingredients for ramen she walked out to be met with a villain currently running away from a hero. She couldn't do much since she was out of training and was convinced that she could not fight like before.
So she just kept to one side of the street and continued walking home but she didn't sense the villain knocking over a lamp post she was walking under.
As I was walking I felt someone grabbing my waist and sliding further from where I was. I looked up to see Shoto.
"Todoroki?" I asked surprised as I looked back to see the lamp post falling. The villain on the other hand was caught by Bakugo and Midoriya.
"AHA I GOT YOU!" Bakugo shouted as he grabbed onto the villain. I shook my head as I watched the boy handcuff the villain.
"Niko are you okay?" Shoto asked waving his hands in front of me.
"Yea I am fine. If there's nothing else I'll be going my brother is waiting and thank you for saving me." I said as I stood up and brushed the dust off my pants before attempting to walk off.
"Niko!" Todoroki said as he held onto my wrist I turned around to look at him but he pulled me into a hug.
"Todoroki! We are in public." I said as I tried to push him off me but of course since he was stronger than me that attempt failed so I just gave up.

"Are you free tonight? I want to make you dinner." He whispered into my ear sending shivers down my spine.
"Yes I am free." I whispered back and I swear for a moment his face turned red.
"G-oo-d I'll pick you up tonight." He replied and pulled away from the hug.
But before he left he placed a kiss on top of my forehead. I was of course stunned that was such a bold move and I knew the old Shoto would not do that. I guess people can change a lot in 3 years.
I shook off that thought and walked back home to make ramen for my troublesome brother.
'My god what did I do! Why why did I kiss her Todoroki Shoto are you out of your mind?!' I mentally slapped myself as I watched Niko walk into the distance.
"ICYHOT!" Bakugo screamed into my ear.
"Oh my god!" I said as I turned around to see Midoriya and Bakugo staring at me.
"Why are the both of you staring at me like I am not human." I questioned.
"Because you-" Bakugo couldn't finish his sentence when Midoriya placed his hands over his mouth.
"Oh it's nothing we just thought that something was on your mind because you didn't reply when we were calling you." I made an 'O' with my mouth as a reply.
"It's nothing. Is the police coming to collect that guy soon?" I asked pointing to the villain in the handcuffs sitting on the floor.
"Oh they are comi-" Midoriya's sentence was cut off when the sound of police sirens came.
"I guess they are here." I said as I walked over to the villain and lifted him off the ground.
"Great work heroes it's always a pleasure working with the 3 of you." The chief said as he saluted and took the villain from me.
"How about a little celebration tonight?" Midoriya asked taking his hands off of Bakugo's mouth.
"HELL YEAH!" Bakugo said actually screamed but I guess that was more of his speaking voice than his shouting voice.
"I can't make it. I am meeting Niko." I replied.
"Niko? As in Niko Hitori from our class?" Midoriya questioned and I nod in reply.
"Oh wow are you trying to get her back or something?"
"Of course."
"But won't your dad disagree?"
"As if I care." I stated shrugging my shoulders. Surprisingly Bakugo was quiet I guess he was thinking about something.
"Well then Todoroki I wish you the best of luck."
"Oi Todoroki." Honestly I flinched when I heard Bakugo call me by name and mainly also because he wasn't shouting.
"If you hurt Niko I'll make sure you die." Bakugo said as he shoved his hands into the pockets of his hero costume.
"Kacchan why do you care about Niko I thought you were on bad terms with her back in highschool?"
"YOU DUMB DEKU SHE'S MY FIRST FRIEND!" Bakugo shouted and I guess I was kind of relieved to see him back in his usual state of mind.
"Oh oh I forgot." Midoriya replied as he scratched his nape.
"Yes don't worry Bakugo I won't harm Niko in any way. Even if she faces any trouble I will make sure I'll rescue her even if it costs my life." I said and Bakugo nodded his head in reply before walking into the distance with Midoriya trying to keep up with him.
I went a separate way because my agency was on a different street and as I was walking I thought about what I should make for Niko.
"Soba?" I mumbled as I walked into my office.
"Todoroki-san this is the report for today's meeting." My sidekick said and I signaled for her to place the document on my desk"
"Todoroki-san are you okay? You seem pretty dazed after you came back from that patrol." My sidekick asked.
"Yes I am fine." I said and I leaned back onto my chair thinking about what I should do with Niko.
"Then I'll be leaving." My sidekick said as she bowed and left the office.

The Prince used to dance — until he discovered the strings moving his legs. The Rebel used to hope — until reality slammed a door in her face. The Spy used to live for nothing but money — until he found himself a family. And the Slave craved freedom more than air — until a small hand reached to her for help. Eskela has known conflict for centuries. War had been engrained into the very soil of every one of the eight kingdoms, and blood has been smeared over history to paint a lie. When young prince Aldric, heir to the Aguki throne, learns his position is nothing but a farce, his world crumbles down around him. As he tries desperately to find power in a world determined to rob him of it, his cousin Rhiann plots to find freedom through more extreme and destructive means. Conflict does not reside in Cinthra alone, though. Erden, newly hired spymaster for the crown prince of Promnir, is tasked with keeping an eye on the kingdom’s council. The job that was supposed to just be about money quickly spirals into a fierce loyalty, one that leads him to the front lines in order to desperately prevent another war from beginning. Azala, a slave bought by the royal family of Azmosir, finds her loyalty is not nearly as solidified as that of Erden’s. But while the prince she serves plots to steal that which does not belong to him and the queen she respects holds on to a lingering desire for revenge, Azala realizes that she must choose whom to save: herself or Azmosir's defenseless and young princess.
