Todoroki x Reader (fantasy AU)
!I do not own 'Love Story'!
~•~❤️~•~
Your POV:
I was standing on the balcony, enjoying the feeling of the summer breeze washing over me. Distantly, I heard the noises of the ball coming from the ballroom. Taking a deep breath, I savoured my last minute of calm silence before heading back to the party.
I never really enjoyed any of the balls my father threw. They were all the same- a bunch of loud noble men and women dancing, drinking and talking.
I stood off to the side, wishing to be back on my peaceful balcony, as I watched the couples dance slowly around the ballroom.
I noticed a handsome young man make his way through the crowd of people, his heterochromic eyes on me.
I watched him curiously, I had never seen him at one of my father's many balls. He had one blue and one brown eye with a large red scar over the left side of his face. His hair was half red and half white, split perfectly down the middle. He was dressed nicely, showing that he too was a noble.
He walked up to me and bowed, a small smile on his face.
"Greeting. I am Lord Shoto Todoroki, son of Lord Enji Todoroki."
"And I am Lady Y/N L/N, daughter of Duke F/N L/N. Pleased to make your acquaintance." I curtsied, grabbing the sides of my f/c ball gown.
"Forgive the intrusion, but I was admiring your beauty from afar and just had to know your name." said Todoroki.
I blushed slightly at his complement and replied:
"Thank you, my Lord. You look handsome yourself. May I ask how your father knows mine?"
"They are rivals, actually." he explained. "A rich friend of theirs passed away recently and unexpectedly. He left no will and there is a big debate, or argument rather, on who gets his land. It was surprising hat we were invited to this lovely ball. I suppose your father is bribing him or something. It won't work though. My father is as stubborn as a mule." he added distastefully.
"I see." I said thoughtfully. "Well I'm glad you got invited non the less!" I smiled.
"As am I." he held out his hand. "Would you care to dance, Lady L/N?"
"I would love to." I grinned, taking his hand as we joined the other couples for the next dance.

It was late, but I couldn't sleep. I was thinking about the boy I had danced with a few nights earlier- Todoroki. What if I never saw him again? My heart ached at the thought.
No sooner had I thought that than I heard something hit my window.
Tink!
I thought I was just hearing things when it happened again.
Tink!
Curiously, I got out of bed and walked over to the window, bare feet patting softly on the carpet.
I opened the window and looked out, squinting in the darkness. I was able to make out a lone figure standing just outside. When my eyes adjusted I realized who it was.
"Todoroki!" I exclaimed quietly "What are you doing here!"
I stepped back as he climbed carefully through the window. Suddenly I became self conscious that I was only wearing my night gown.
"I know we just met, but for some reason I just couldn't stop thinking about you." he said, cheeks dusted pink.
"And I, you." I smiled.
"I was wondering if we would ever see each other again." I said, a little sadly.
"We will, I just know it." he smiled.
Heavy footsteps could be heard coming down the hall.
"I must go." Todoroki said hastily walking back towards the window, but it was too late.
My father must have heard us talking, despite us keeping our voices down. He burst into the room and spotted Todoroki.
"Aren't you Todoroki's son!? What are you doing here!? Get away from my daughter this instant!!"
"No, father, you don't understand! He was-"
"Silence! You, boy, come with me." he dragged Todoroki out of the room and I followed helplessly behind.
"Do not ever go near my daughter ever again you hear me!?" he shouted at Todoroki.
"Yessir." he replied miserably.
"No! Don't go! I'm begging you!" I cried from the staircase. He spared my one last quilty look before father threw him out gruffly by the collar.
"I forbid you to ever see that boy again." he said coldly.
"It's not his fault you're in a fight with his father!" I cried.
"Be quiet and go to your room!"
I reluctantly got up and obeyed, still sniffling.

I read the letter on my night stand over and over to make sure it was real.
Dearest Y/N,
Meet my in the garden at midnight tomorrow.
Love, S.T.
Todoroki wanted to see me again, even if it meant facing a huge punishment if he got caught. Nevertheless, I counted the minutes until midnight, elated at the prospect of seeing him again. I couldn't stop staring at how he had signed it- Love, S.T.
Once midnight was finally approaching, I snuck out the window, lantern in hand and feet bare. I walked to the center of our large garden and waited.
My heart leapt when I heard him. I turned excitedly around, holding up my lantern. It was indeed Todoroki, smiling and walking quietly closer.
"I missed you." he whispered, coming even closer. I blushed, thankful for the darkness so that he wouldn't see.
"I missed you more." I whispered back. "But it was foolish for you to come. We're dead if our fathers find out."
"I know." he said "But I couldn't go another day without seeing you."
I blushed even more and my heart rate increased.
"Todoroki..." I started.
"Yes, dear?"
"I-I know we just met but..."
"But?"
Instead of saying what I had planned I closed the little distance there was between us and pressed my lips against his.
To my relief and delight, he happily returned the kiss.
"I must go now." he said after we finally broke apart. "I will see you again, love."
And with that, he was off, leaving me alone in the garden, barefoot and still wearing my night clothes, but happier than I had ever been.
~•~❤️~•~
Me and Todoroki had been meeting in secret for almost a year but the conflict between out families still hadn't ended.
I was loosing hope that it ever would.
Every night I looked at my night stand, hoping for there to be another letter from Todoroki, saying he'll meet me again soon and that he loves me. There hasn't been one there in two weeks, the longest time yet, and I'm starting to worry that something has happened to him.
What if his father found out and locked him away? What if he was caught sneaking out? What if he was attacked in the night on his way here? What if... he didn't love me anymore?
I pushed all these negative thoughts down and told myself I would see him soon and he would explain everything.
My heart leapt when I saw a letter from him on my night stand that night.
I opened it eagerly and read:
Dearest Y/N,
Meet me on the outskirts of town at sundown. I have some amazing news! I love you so much and always will.
Forever yours, S.T.
I smiled widely and put the letter under my pillow, looking forward to tonight.

I waited for Todoroki, watching the sunset while I did so. It was beautiful - different shades of orange, yellow and pink with fluffy pink clouds drifting in front of the sun.
"Hello, love."
I turned around quickly and saw him.
"Shoto!" I exclaimed, eyes tearing up from emotion as I ran towards him and enveloped him in a tight hug. He returned it and kissed the top of my head affectionately.
He must have seen the tear that rolled down my cheek because he asked, voice full of concern:
"What is the matter, Y/N?"
"I've been feeling so alone." I confessed.
I felt his hands on my shoulders and looked up when he took a step back.
I gasped when he got down on one knee. My heart was pounding and I covered my mouth with my hands, realizing what he was about to do.
He pulled a beautiful diamond ring out of his pocket and said:
"Marry me, Y/N, you never have to be alone. I love you and that's all I really know. I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress!"
Another tear rolled down my cheek, but this one was out of pure joy. I looked at Todoroki and felt my heart swell with love for him.
"Yes!"
