You were the social butterfly of Class 1-A, always cheerful and brimming with energy. Befriending people was second nature to you, and you made it your mission to connect with as many classmates as possible. Your laughter was infectious, lightening the mood and making even the toughest days a little brighter. But despite your many friends, one person always seemed out of reach: Todoroki.

It took time, patience, and more than a little persistence, but slowly, you chipped away at the icy walls he had built around himself. When U.A. announced a day off, you wasted no time in making plans with him. To your surprise, he agreed. Now, after all your efforts, you were finally going to spend a day out together.

The city was your playground for the day — shopping districts, restaurants, and all the sights you could explore. You knew Todoroki hadn’t had many chances to hang out like this, his life dominated by his father’s intense training. You were determined to make this day special.

Standing outside the school gate, you felt a mix of excitement and nerves. Your mind buzzed with ideas, imagining how the day might bring you closer as friends. You had been waiting for a few minutes when you finally spotted him walking from the direction of the dorms. He was dressed casually, a sight you weren’t used to, but it made him seem more approachable, almost like seeing a different side of him.

You waved as he approached, trying to keep your usual cheerful demeanor. But then, to your surprise, he spoke first, his tone slightly hesitant but sincere.

“I, uh… I was really looking forward to today. So I made a list of places we could visit.”

His words caught you off guard. You’d never expected something so earnest from someone usually so reserved. In that moment, you realized that maybe, just maybe, this day meant as much to him as it did to you.
