After Todoroki had finished showering he found himself with nothing to do. He decided that there wouldn't be any harm if he just laid back on his bed and distracted himself on his phone until Fuyumi..or his father get back.
He didn't have any homework for the weekend and he had nothing he had to study so it was not like he could do anything else.
He doesn't know why he's so anxious to see his father. He's dealt with his bullshit for years and his punishments. The bastard was smart about it too. Always leaving marks and bruises where no one would see.
Just thinking about his father's brutal training sessions made his body ache. It was better to not dwell on it for too long. He wouldn't have to worry until later, for now, he should focus on how cute the cat was on the video he was watching. Todoroki felt his heart flutter, in the video a little white cat was chasing a laser around what seemed to be the living room and was being fairly cute. It kept bumping into the furniture and tripping over itself.
Todoroki has loved the small creatures as long as he could remember. If it wasn't for the no pet policy at the dorms he would've gone out and gotten a very own kitten of his own. And of course, his father didn't allow it. He didn't like anything that" distracted him" from training.
Though Todoroki could barely take care of himself how was he supposed to take care of a pet? He wouldn't want a cat to suffer and it would surely under the care of Todoroki. Maybe one day he'll be capable of too until then he'll have to be satisfied with just watching videos and looking at photos.
After watching plenty of other cat videos Todoroki stumbled upon a video of a cat that bit at its owner's hand every time he tried to pet it. The cat couldn't help to remind him of Bakugo. He snorted at the thought. He found it extremely funny that he was comparing the blonde to a cat.
Now that he was thinking about the blonde he wondered if he always was up so early. It was a surprise to him when he saw that the blonde was awake. Maybe he was a morning person. Todoroki personally couldn't understand how anyone would wake up early with having to. He always preferred sleeping in.
There was a lot he didn't know about Bakugo. When the blonde had gone out and gotten soba just for him he couldn't help to be flattered. The cold-hearted Bakugo doing something nice for him? He couldn't help but blush at the memory. No one had ever done something that nice for him. Maybe the blonde had a different side to him and the fact that he showed that side to him made him feel all giddy. He couldn't control it, it just did.
It made him feel nice knowing someone doing something nice for him even if it's Bakugo. Maybe he would like the blonde more if he wasn't such an ass to Midoriya. It made his heart feel sore whenever the blonde treated the greenhead like he was a lowly peasant.
He knew that the two used to be childhood friends so maybe Midoriya did something to Bakugo so now he has a grudge that he can't let go. And is set on tormenting the green head every chance he got.
But Midoriya had not a single drop of evil in him. He was so pure and kind. He would never do something to hurt his beloved ' Kacchan'
Maybe he could ask Midoriya about it when he has the chance. Though he might not feel comfortable telling him. After all it might be something really personal and honestly, the two of them weren't that close. Midoriya would most definitely be more comfortable telling stuff like that to Iida and Uraraka.
He couldn't help but wish that he was closer to the greenhead. He probably only still texted him and talked to him because he pitied him.
Todoroki turned off his phone and laid it next to him on his bed. He leaned back into his pillow and closed his eyes.
He frowned at the thought. Bakugo Katsuki wouldn't be nice to him out of petty. Right?
After all he was Bakugo. The same Bakugo that has declared many of times that he hates everyone in there class.
The blonde was particularly good at being rude all the time. If he really did hate Todoroki then he wouldn't had gotten the soba for him. He would've continued on with his day without even letting todoroki know that he had spilled his precious soba.
For some reason, it made his heart flutter thinking that maybe the blonde found him more than tolerable.
And with that last thought the tiredness that he didn't even realize he felt took over all of his senses and he fell into a dreamless sleep.

Todoroki let out a groan as he heard distant noise. He tried to tune out the thumping noise and continue to rest. He was still painfully tired and wanted nothing more to confine sleeping.
The noises started to become clearer to him, his surroundings too as the noise got louder and louder.
His eyes flung open once he recognizes that too familiar noise.
It was his father he had gotten home. It sounded like he made his way up the stairs Todorki hoped that his father was making his way upstairs only to go into his room to maybe rest.
Todorki frantically looked around his bed trying to spot his phone he needed to know the time.
Once he spotted his phone he quickly turned it on. He tried to ignore the booming footsteps that were getting closer and closer.
12:35 PM
Todoroki turned off his phone after checking the time. At least he got a bit more sleep. God knows he will need it.
Todoroki felt his heart beat faster and faster and the footsteps drew nearer and nearer. He felt his nails digging into his palms drawing blood.
They grew closer and closer.
Then they stopped at his door. And not a second later the door was swung opened at Todorki was met with his father's scowl.
Once his eyes landed on his glare became more murderous.
" Shouto, Be in the training room in 5 minutes. "
And with that, his father turned around and headed back downstairs.
Todoroki let out the breath he was holding and he unclenched his fists. He didn't pay any mind to the blood on his fingernails.
He knew his father wasn't going to be happy when he saw him. But that went better than expected. He has dealt with his father's ' training ' for years and he will again.
But his father tended to take out his stress on Him during training and seemed like that was just what he intended to do.
Todoroki could only hope the man wouldn't be too harsh.

" Shouto get up! A enemy will not wait for you to get up. You must get stronger."
Todoroki looked back at his father cold glare as he wrapped his arm around his stomach. He wasn't holding back. He could feel the bruises littered around his body.
Todoroki was barely able to dodge the fiery fist coming straight for his face. He quickly jumped out of the way but before he could dodge another fiery fist came out of nowhere and landed a punch of his stomach.
Todoroki kneeled Over and gasped out of pain. If he has any food in his stomach it would've certainly come back up. It felt like it had been hours since he's entered the room. As his father still hasn't lightened up.
" Your performance was worse today. I am disappointed Shouto. Leave I don't want to see your face. And don't forget to never disrespect me. "
Todoroki scowled at his father's icy words. But he didn't reply In fear of angering his father more and happily got up and slightly limping and made his way out the room.
His body felt like fire as he made his way to the upstairs bathroom. He needed a shower to get rid of all the sweat and blood. He also had to take care of the multiple scrapes and bruises lingering across his body.
He wondered why his sister wasn't Hope yet. He was a little worried after all in the note she had left for him she had said she wouldn't be taken long. Maybe something had happened to her.
Their father mostly likely wouldn't notice if she was gone for days. After all, all his attention went towards his masterpiece.
After multiple painful steps, Todoroki finally made it into his room to get a change of clothes.
He quickly picked out a plain white shirt and normal blue pajama pants before slipping out of his room and going into the bathroom.
He closed and locked the door behind him once he entered the large bathroom.
He flicked the lights on and sat down his things before going over to the shower and turning it on.
Taking off his clothes was painful any pressure against a bruise would make him bite his lip and hold in a gasp.
After a couple of painful minutes, he has finally disposed of his clothes that were now sloppily laying on the ground.
Before he stepped into the shower he catches a glance of himself in the mirror.
He looked horrible. He had eye bags under his eyes and he looked like he hadn't had any proper sleep in days. His face was drained of any color and his hair was covered in sweat and dirt. His torso and chest were filled with purple bruises, Some bigger than the others. He couldn't help but noticed the painfully large bruise where his father had landed a punch. It was multiple shades of purple and yellow. He could barely move without feeling like he was being stabbed from the inside. His legs had a couple of scrapes and bruises. But like always his arms and face were left untouched.
Todoroki couldn't help but feel disgusted at what he saw.
