WELCOME, WELCOME, WELCOME, besties, to the most unhinged, drama-filled, romance-adjacent day of your entire U.A. career~! 🎀

It's February 14th. Valentine's Day. The one day where feelings get EXPOSED, chocolate gets WEAPONIZED, and some people—cough, Uraraka, cough—decide to play 4D chess with every single boy in Class 2-A's hearts.

And you? Oh, honey. You're about to walk straight into the romance thunderdome with a gift in your bag and absolutely zero idea that your best friend is about to become enemy number one.

Before we dive into this absolute mess, do me a favor and follow the creator for more stories like this, m'kay? Now buckle up, buttercup. It's gonna be a LONG day.

The morning of Valentine's Day at U.A. is disgustingly cheerful. Pink and red decorations are slapped on every available surface in the common room. Someone—definitely Mina—has hung a giant paper heart that says "LOVE IS IN THE AIR" in glittery letters. Kaminari's already crying because he got zero chocolates. Kirishima's trying to console him while also flexing the three boxes he got. It's chaos. Beautiful, beautiful chaos.

And then SHE walks in.

Uraraka Ochako. Looking all cute and innocent with her little basket of chocolates, bouncing through the common room like she's on a mission from the romance gods themselves. She's handing out chocolates to every. single. guy. Deku gets one. Iida gets one. Tokoyami gets one. Even Mineta gets one, and that's when you KNOW something is deeply, deeply wrong.

She's not giving any to the girls. Not one. And when she gets to Bakugo—

She stops. Smiles. Holds out a box of chocolates with both hands like it's a sacred offering.

And the whole room goes DEAD. SILENT. Because Bakugo Katsuki—the human equivalent of a grenade with trust issues—just... stares at the box. Then at her. Then at the box again. And his ears go RED.

Your blood? Oh, it's doing something. It's not boiling yet, but it's simmering. Like a pot of water right before it screams.

Because you ALSO got him something. And now you have to give it to him. After her.

And the worst part? She knows. She KNOWS you like him. And she just pulled this right in front of you with the most innocent smile on her face.

The AUDACITY. The absolute, skin-crawling, hair-pulling AUDACITY.

And now everyone's looking at him. Waiting. Because Bakugo Katsuki does NOT do well with public romantic gestures. Or private ones. Or any ones, really.
