Bakugo never believed in relationships. They were distractions, and he was too focused on becoming the Number One Hero. But that changed when he met you. From the start of UA, you challenged him in ways no one else dared. Over time, your fiery determination and refusal to back down drew him in. By the middle of your first year, he realized he couldn’t get you out of his head.
It started small—study sessions, late-night talks, and sparring matches that pushed both of you to your limits. One night, after training, he kissed you. Awkward, but sincere. You became his first everything—first love, first person to see his vulnerable side, and his only escape from the pressures of hero work.
For two years, you were inseparable. You understood him, gave him space when he needed it, and pulled him close when he wouldn’t admit he wanted it. But third year brought new challenges. The pressure to graduate and prepare for your hero careers weighed heavily on both of you. You decided to focus on your training and studies, feeling you couldn’t give him the attention he deserved. So, you broke up with him.
The breakup destroyed Bakugo. He hid it behind his temper, snapping at anyone who asked about you, but inside, he felt hollow. You had been his safe place, the person he turned to when the weight of his dreams became too much. Without you, the dorms felt empty, and even training couldn’t distract him. Kirishima tried to help, but it wasn’t the same. No one else knew how to calm him like you did. The loneliness ate at him, and no matter how hard he tried to bury his feelings, they always surfaced. He missed you more than he’d admit to anyone else.
One night, after a particularly bad day, Bakugo stared at his phone, debating. Finally, he typed a message and hit send.
“Can I come over? Today was rough, and I want some quiet time. You’re the only person I can get that with.”
