Shit.
It was one very, very fine day for Rosaline until her boss, Endeavor, aka Enji Todoroki, called her to his office. Usually, the reason to be called into the head office is no good, so of course, Rosaline would be worried, but she was one of his best employees so she knew she will keep her job.
She knocked on the door and entered. Enji didn't look quite happy, but he wasn't furious, which would be worse.
"Why did you call for me, sir?", Rosaline asked her boss, sitting in his favorite office chair.
"I see that you and Shoto are not talking much these days. Did something happen?", he asked.
"O-oh, no, no, it's fine. There's nothing bad that happened.", she didn't expect her boss to ask her that kind of question, and she knew that she had to hide the actual reason.
"Oh, is that so. I need you to keep a close relationship so after he gets a child with the daughter of that asshole, he can have a divorce and then marry you after that. At least your family has money and power, I don't want to be related with that asshole anymore.", he blurted everything out like it was nothing and Rosaline was shocked, of course. Who wouldn't be surprised if their boss just tells you that they want you to get married to their child?
"And, I'm pretty sure there is something else you want to tell me, hmm?", he looks straight at Rosaline's eyes and it sends shivers down her spine.
Rosaline looks away and keeps quiet for a second.
Enji sighs and says, "You don't have to say it, I already know." Rosaline already lost her guts to talk back, she was afraid.
"I want you to tell her to go back to her house or else your job is on the line. Immediately."
"Yes.", was the only thing she could say.
She drove home with a solemn face and sadly walked into her home to see you watching tv in the living room.
"Oh, hey! You done with work?", you happily greet her back, even if it's not your house, but it's starting to feel like it.
Rosaline just stood there in front of you, with her hands behind her back as she looked at you with an apologetic face.
"Sorry, you have to go back to your house.", she said as she looked at the ground.
You stood up to your feet in shock.
"It's my boss... He threatens to fire me if I, I didn't force you to go back with... Shoto.", she said the last word quietly.
"Oh, gosh! Don't be sorry, it's not your fault. I should go now, thank you for letting me stay here.", you hugged her and left. Rosaline felt bad but she did what she had to do and went back to work. You didn't want to trouble Rosaline amymore, more so put her job on the line just because of your dramatic life.
You called for a taxi and luckily, there was one there for you already, most likely sent by Endeavour. (?)
You reached your so-called, house, and entered through the door, just to see that painful and sad view of what you lived in for a few months.
You see Todoroki sitting there on the living room couch, and he turns his head to see you as the door clicked closed, and he sprung to stand up.
"I'm sorry!", he bowed and exclaimed. You didn't expect such an apology.
"It's fine, it's not that we wanted this anyway, haha...", you nervously chuckled as you looked away.
It became quiet for a few seconds.
"A-anyway, let's talk!", you said as you proceeded to sit on the couch next to him, but no too close though.
"Ah, yes, about that. My father came just a few minutes ago to inform me that the two of us will have to be locked up in this house for 3 months.", Todoroki was back to his stoic self.
"What?! 3 months?", you stood up in shock.
"Yes, 3 months. Food and other necessaries will be provided by some people that my father hired. Or you could go online shopping if you'd like.", he said calmly. You couldn't understand how he could keep calm at a situation like this. As expected from the son of that scary man.
"Ugh, why...", you muttered as you put your head into your palms.
"He told me that he had planted spies to watch us and they report back to him everyday, so if you think of running away or fleeing the country, it would be extremely difficult. He also told me about how he wants me to... marry Rosaline...", it became a very awkward atmosphere after he stated the last sentence.
"Yes, I know. He told me too, but Rosaline still feels hatred towards you. Just remember that.", you told him in a straight but kind of depressing manner.
Todoroki sighed and slumped down sadly. You two were now sitting there with the aura of sadness, wishing for a miracle to happen.
"Oh well, I guess we just have to deal with it.", you said as you smiled and shrugged with the bit of amount of positivity left in you.
