(Todoroki x Reader) Same Quirks

First Session

"And it's me?"

"I never said that. Do you think it's you?"

I froze and soon got up. "I don't need this."

"Sit down!" Shoto yelled at me, making me step back in shock. "Grow up and get through this appointment with me! You don't have to like it! We're here to get better!" I slowly sat down and grabbed a tissue as tears filled my eyes.

"Why are you crying?" Asked the doctor as I dabbed my eyes.

"He's never yelled at me like that." I answered. The conversation soon flipped onto Shoto and how he was feeling about me.

"I'm angry." He admitted.

"Let's dig deeper." Said the doctor. "What else?"

"I feel... used. Like I was strung along, played with and then stomped on. I'm mad at her for doing it to me, but I'm angrier at myself for allowing that to happen."

"Go on."

"I hate that I still love her. I wish that I could hate her, but I can't. She first hurt me around the time that she left Japan, but that was understandable. She had been through a lot. When she came back, we had this instant connection and I thought that we could pick up from where we left off, but one of my best friends got involved-."

"How are you two even best friends?" I interrupted. "You never hang out."

"Why do you think that is? He suddenly became my rival and we started competing for you."

"Y/n." The doctor interrupted. "Let's not interrupt him. Shoto, you can continue."

Shoto continued talking and our session was soon over. We left the room and saw our parents in the waiting room. We left together and began parting ways. Feeling guilty, I turned to look at Shoto and turned back around when I realized he wasn't gonna look back at me. I was taken back to the dorm and had lunch with my parents before texting the 1A girls about hanging out the next day. They agreed and we made plans after my parents left. Katsuki spent the night again and left in the morning before I left to meet up with the girls. I walked into the restaurant they suggested and saw them sitting at a table together. I smiled before approaching and watched them smile once they noticed me.

"Hey!" I greeted them cheerfully.

"Hey!" I heard back from a few of them before seeing them get up to hug me. I hugged Yaoyorozu, still not knowing what was said at the party.

"How have you guys been? It's been a while."

"I'm good." Said Yaoyorozu. "I'm glad that I could see you before you left." I smiled before taking a seat next to Uraraka.

"Me too." Said Asui. "It's a shame that you're leaving. It'd be nice if you could stay."

I smiled and we began looking at the menu before ordering. We started talking about how we were all doing and shared some gossip about other heroes in Japan and America. We took that time to really talk about things that we would never mention in front of the guys. Stuff that only other women would understand. I was mostly focused on how Yaoyorozu and I were getting along. She spoke to me as if we were close, which was good, but confusing. After finishing our food, we paid and began walking to a nearby spa. I quickly held onto Yaoyorozu's arm and pulled her back so we could talk.

"I don't wanna ruin whatever is happening here, but I don't remember our conversation at the party." I admitted.

"Oh." She said before smiling. "Well, we talked about how I deserved someone that wanted to flaunt me around. You said that I was too amazing to be hidden. We talked about how difficult my relationship with Shoto was and how you thought I should find someone that would put me first. You were right, of course. I didn't want to chase after him anymore. It was embarrassing."

"... I'm glad. I hope you find that someone soon. I think you're deserving of something real and maybe a little intense." I chuckled. "I'm hoping we can continue on like today. Like good friends." She smiled before holding my hand and we held onto each other until we got to the spa. After checking in, we went to the locker room to undress and headed to the showers first. We washed up before getting into the large hot bath and I watched Mina and Uraraka approach me. They held onto my arms and sat closer.

"Do you have to leave?" Asked Mina. "I know we haven't hung out much, but we could make time for you or add you to our plans."

"Especially now that everyone's on good terms." Said Uraraka. "We have a sleepover every other Saturday night. Just to catch up and spend time together."

"And we plan fun trips every once in a while." Said Jiro. "We went to the Philippines last time, but those trips are for the whole group. Anyone can join. Even the guys."

"And every month or sooner, we plan group outings." Said Yaoyorozu. "Last time, we did the hike and before that was clubbing for Midoriya's birthday."

"I don't know." I answered.

"What's there to think about?" Uraraka questioned.

"Things aren't great right now with Shoto. I wouldn't wanna stay and be around him all the time if he doesn't wanna see me."

They stared at me, looking confused and I briefly explained. "But you guys are working it out." Said Jiro. "That's more of a reason to stay."

"I think that's what his and my parents want me to do too, but it's definitely something to think about. I'm not sure if I can just leave everything behind again. It wasn't easy the first or second time."

"Make a list." Mina suggested. "A pros and cons list of leaving America to come here."

I nodded and quietly thought about it before getting up and heading to different rooms for different treatments. I first went to get a massage, which felt amazing. "You're very tense." Said the masseuse. "You must be dealing with a lot."

"You could say that." I scoffed.

"Can I suggest an acupuncture therapy session?"

"Acupuncture? Like needles."

"Yes. It's very healing."

"Uh, sure."

After she was done with the massage, she led me into another room and I laid on my back while I waited for the acupuncturist. She soon walked in and greeted me before getting her tools to begin. She began putting them into my face and stopped between my eyebrows. "This one will hurt just for a second." She warned me.

"It's okay. I'm good with pain."

She stuck the needle in, but the pain was manageable. I looked up at her and watched her stare at me. "Hm. Interesting. You don't feel anything?"

"I do. It feels nice. Like some weight lifted from my shoulders." She continued going lower and I felt the needle go right below my knee. I quickly flinched and felt my eyes begin to burn.

"Are you okay?" I nodded as tears rolled down my face and towards my ears. "Ah. This is what you need." She stuck another needle in my foot and it felt like all my strength was flowing out of me. I began crying harder and felt snot come out of my nose.

"Take it out!" I cried. "I need to get up."

"No. You can do this. Just let it all out and cry."

I laid there and sobbed loudly until I felt better. She then took all of the needles out and started putting them in my back. After she was done, I got up and wrapped a towel around myself before leaving. I felt lighter emotionally and physically. I walked around to look for everyone and found them in the sauna. "Hey!" I cheerfully smiled.

"You seem to be in a better mood." Asui commented.

"I am." I sat next to Jiro and closed my eyes. "I had a massage that felt amazing and then acupuncture therapy. You guys should try it." After the sauna, we washed up again and changed into our clothes before leaving. We grabbed lunch and continued talking before finally parting ways. I couldn't stop thinking about that day. They have always been the only group of girls I've known who enjoyed long conversations about meaningful stuff and didn't try to upstage each other. In America, my friends were focused on looking good, feeling good, whether it be from sex or parties, and making good money. It was usually dramatic and wild. The 1A girls treated me differently and focused on building relationships, self care, and enjoying life.
