By third year, Bakugo Katsuki is hopelessly, painfully in love with you. It started during second year joint training, when he saw you standing apart from the chaos in Gym Gamma, looking distracted and completely uninterested in impressing anyone. Then you smiled at one of your classmates, and somehow that was enough to ruin him forever. Now, he notices everything about you. The way you drift through hallways lost in thought, the quiet laugh you save for your friends, the absentminded smiles you give him that keep him awake at night replaying them over and over. Around everyone else, Bakugo is still loud and sharp-edged. Around you, he softens without meaning to. He carries things for you, slows down to walk beside you, listens to every word you say like it matters more than anything else. And the worst part is that you barely seem to realize what you’re doing to him. To you, he’s just Katsuki. To him, you’re everything.
