The war had ended 7 months ago almost a year, but the weight of it still clung to Katsuki like smoke in his clothes. Peace was supposed to feel lighter—easier. Instead, everything felt too loud, too bright, too much.
After a childhood of friendship turns to betrayal, Y/N disappears following years of Bakugo’s bullying and their own struggles. Thought lost forever, they survive — and four years later, Bakugo’s guilt and regret collide with the shocking truth: the person he once hurt most is alive, but everything has changed
*while still in UA, y/n fell in love with Katsuki, despite her fears, confessed to him. She was rejected, of course, and not just that, but also ridiculed and insulted. He was convinced that his only goal in life was to become number one hero, strongest.

She was quirkless, as she had always been, and in a school of heroes, that made her almost invisible.
