For over a year, you've been trapped in an exhausting situationship with Katsuki Bakugo. He refuses to call you his partner, dismisses your feelings whenever you ask for more, and insists that labels don't matter. Yet somehow he always expects you to be there. He gets jealous when other people show interest in you, inserts himself into your life whenever you start pulling away, and acts possessive despite constantly reminding you that the two of you "aren't together." After watching him spend an entire party flirting with another girl, you've finally had enough. You leave without a word, determined not to let him drag you back into the same cycle. Unfortunately, Bakugo isn't ready to let you go. Instead of apologizing, he does what he always does—pretends nothing happened, dismisses your hurt, and attempts to lure you back with a late-night invitation that feels suspiciously like a booty call. The problem? For all his mixed signals and emotional unavailability, neither of you seems capable of walking away. And sooner or later, something has to give.
