"Pepermint, you done?" Izanami asked without looking up. She scrolled through the playlist her and Jiro had created to play during their ride to the camp.
The bi-coloured boy looked up from his notebook, finishing whatever it was that he was writing , before packing his stuff and getting ready to leave.
"Yes. Let's go,"
Over the course of few weeks, starting from the exchange of soba and ramen, the two had come to amicable terms.
Ironically enough, although both did converse with their other friends; it seemed they hung out with each other more often than compared to others.
Well, not exactly 'hanging out'.
It was training.
Aizawa sensei had announced the upcoming midterms, and although neither of the two were particularly worried about failing, the two pros in the making had a newfound fire lit inside them to become stronger after their encounter with Stain.
Their internship with endeavour had proved to them that they were a good training match up.
So, ever since the girl had gotten a good to go from recovery girl, both of them had been training together every alternate day after school.
"Izanami,"
He called out, as the two fell into step, returning back after their training was over
"Yeah?"
"I started visiting my mom," he said as they fell into step after finishing their training.
The girl glanced at him, wondering for a second why he felt the need to tell her that but she replied,
"That's great!"
After a moment of silence , she then added
"How do you feel about it?"
"I- Honestly," he paused
"It was nice. I don't know how to put it into words but it felt peaceful. She didn't blame me for happened to her. She accepted my apology and then she also apologised herself."
"What happened wasn't her fault. It was my shitty old man's but she still apologised. And then we talked about school, about friends even about yo-"
he cut himself off,
"Wait, I'm rambling, aren't I? sorry."
Izanami had a softened look in her eyes,
Todoroki looked free when he talked, like a burden has been lifted from him. And like he can finally talk about how it felt to have it with him.
"I don't mind. You can continue, it's nice to see you being all cute than annoying"
He side eyed her before he had a mischievous, almost imperceptible smile on his face
"You think I'm cute?"
She smacked his hand, just realising what she said
"Never mind, you're still annoying" she huffed
He continued telling her about his visit and she continued listening to him with the same look in her eyes.
The next day, Aizawa sensei had given strict warnings-cum- instructions to everyone about the exams which were in a week's time.
Anyone who failed would not be able to attend the camp and this had made a couple of their classmates groan and whine
Mina Ashido, however, wasn't one to be underestimated.
"So,ladies and gentlemen and all those in between and beyond, having the ability to look into the future, I must profess that our journey seems to have come to an end here. So please before the commencement of the inevitable defeat of ours-" she said waving at Kaminari, Kirishima and herself
"LETS GO AND HAVE AN ICE CREAM DATE AS A CLASS!!"
Where did she get that vocabulary Izanami thought
"You mustn't give up like this!" Momo encouraged Mina
"Yeah! You can do it guys!" Uraraka exclaimed, punching? the air
"This time is of essence! As the president of this class I suggest we can go after the examinations are over."
"Pretty pleaseee" Mina whined giving the class puppy eyes
"I mean it's just ice cream kero"
"Yeah, it'll get our minds off stress as well"
"Tch. Extras I'm leaving."
"Bakubroo!"
"Bakugo!!"
The two boys whined,
Out of curiosity, Izanami turned to the boy at her side,
"What's your favourite flavour?"
"Vanilla."
Her jaw dropped
"Are your tastebuds okay? vanilla?!
"What's wrong with it?"
"Everything!"
"Well it's the only flavour i've had. My old man didn't use to allow me junk, so Natsuo once snuck a vanilla cup for me."
"That's actually sweet but if you're gonna like vanilla, it should be of your own choice!"
"And that's important because?" he found himself questioning, the conversation seemingly never ending
"Because then I'd know that you're officially a bland guy."
"Hey-" he gave her a mock glare
And, although the majority of the class rejected the proposal and causing the miss pinky to sulk, thereby leading Momo to offer tutoring them,
Izanami had still managed to drag the heterochromatic boy to an ice cream parlour on their way back,
He glanced at her, while deciding which flavour which is not vanilla to pick,
"What are you taking?"
"Mint chocolate chip."
"Isn't that the one people say which tastes like toothpaste?"
She scoffed, "Those people are stupid. I'll squeeze a tube of toothpaste in their mouth and ask them if it tastes the same,"
He side eyed her again, shaking his head lightly
"Weirdo."
And somehow, somewhere the two became a routine part of each other's routine.
