"Ice?" Your dark brows knitted as you stared at my answer to the stupid, slambook-like question.
"Yeah." I replied as my eyes strayed away from the online quiz you made me answer.

"Ice?" Your dark brows knitted as you stared at my answer to the stupid, slambook-like question.
"Yeah." I replied as my eyes strayed away from the online quiz you made me answer.
I tilted my head back, staring at the orange and pink hues of the picturesque horizon ahead of us. "They call me the Ice Prince, so I guess ice would be the perfect element to describe me."
You won't drop the topic even if you slid your phone back in your pocket.

"Well, Todoroki, I guess they are right. You are not exactly the warmest person at first glance."
My shoulders sagged back then when you said that. I felt bad knowing you also thought of me that way. Still, I couldn't blame you. "I guess so."

I can still remember how enthusiastically you rose up and stood before me with that jolly, remarkable smile of yours. "But as much as you seem cold, you are not as tough as they think you are."
Normally, I would be appalled hearing someone say I'm not hard enough,
Normally, I would be appalled hearing someone say I'm not hard enough,
not strong enough, but it was you, so I did not mind. I wanted to hear why, to hear you speak your thoughts out loud just like the first time we met. "What made you think so?"
"Ice shatters," you told me matter of factly. "Ice breaks after continuous exertion of force."
"Ice shatters," you told me matter of factly. "Ice breaks after continuous exertion of force."
I stared at you dumbly because why didn't I think of that? You easily broke ice with your powerful whirlwind, right? "Oh."
"Ice melts too." You gradually descended to your knees, kneeling and looking at me in the eye. "Ice melts to the slightest warmth."

I still recall cracking a joke while fighting the urge to smile at your goofy expression. "Are you calling me weak, Yoarashi?"
You frantically shook your head. "No, Todoroki! You are very strong! It's just that you are quite more fragile than what others expect you to be."
You frantically shook your head. "No, Todoroki! You are very strong! It's just that you are quite more fragile than what others expect you to be."
You held my hands and clasped them in your own. You did not even need two hands to be able to cover mine, but you were Yoarashi Inasa. You always gave your 200% in everything you do. You always gave your 200%, even in loving someone like me.
"Not because ice melts means that it can never get back in shape. You never failed to pick yourself up, Todoroki."
Such kind words, but I didn't need them.
I simply needed you.

I simply needed you.
"I won't mind melting though," I admitted. I remember my left cheek being so warm as I shamelessly added, "as long as it is from your warmth."
"Aww, is that a pick-up line, Shouto?" You chuckled, showing your pearly whites that shone brighter than the sun.
"Aww, is that a pick-up line, Shouto?" You chuckled, showing your pearly whites that shone brighter than the sun.
You did not even give me a chance to retaliate. You just picked me up as if I was a child and swung a laughing me in the air.
I ended up clinging to you, with my arms and legs around you as I stared deep in your dark eyes.

At that time, I wondered if your eyes were really black because I swear I saw them twinkling as you gazed at me.
You hauled me up higher, higher until I was staring down at your radiant face. I held tighter, my eyes fixed on you, only you.

"I really, really like you, Todoroki," you breathed out of the blue as you looked at me as if I was your sun.
I, the ever blunt Todoroki Shouto, did not even think twice saying how I felt. "I really, really like you too, Yoarashi."

'Ice shatters. Ice melts. Ice is fragile.' Those things were what you told me that day.
You knew how I easily shatter.
You knew how I easily melt.
You knew how fragile I really am.
You knew me, Inasa, more than anyone else in this world.
You knew how I easily shatter.
You knew how I easily melt.
You knew how fragile I really am.
You knew me, Inasa, more than anyone else in this world.
You knew the real me, the weak, delicate me, so why did you leave?
Why did you mercilessly break me?
Why did you let me melt, only to have me building the thick walls of ice I brought down for you?
Was it fun?
Was it fun making me swear to live on with or without you?
Was it fun having the peace that I could never gain?

You're unfair.
So unfair.
So unfair.
You made me feel as if I was on top of the world, only to have me plunging down the abyss.
Why, Inasa?
Why?
Why, Inasa?
Why?
Why did you leave me all alone?
Why…
Why…
Tell me why…
Why…
Tell me why…
It's cold. So cold. So lonely.
So lonely without you, my sun.
So lonely without you, my sun.
Won't you come back to me?
Won't you follow me?
Won't you stay with me now?
Won't you follow me?
Won't you stay with me now?
Maybe it's for the best that you won't right now...
But I'll wait. I'll wait for you, just like how you had once waited for me.
Even if it takes days. Weeks. Months. Years.
But I'll wait. I'll wait for you, just like how you had once waited for me.
Even if it takes days. Weeks. Months. Years.
I'll wait until you love me again.
Until you come back to my arms.
Until you fill me with your warmth once again.
I'll wait, Inasa. I'll always wait.
Until you come back to my arms.
Until you fill me with your warmth once again.
I'll wait, Inasa. I'll always wait.
