Izuku: Omega, Katsuki: Alpha

—

Katsuki Bakugou never planned on falling for Izuku Midoriya. Hell, if you had told him a year ago that he’d be dating the same nerd he used to bully, he would’ve laughed in your face. But here they were—four months in, still trying to figure out what this whole relationship thing even meant.

Katsuki has always been intense—hotheaded, ambitious, and too stubborn for his own good. He knows how to throw a punch, how to win a fight, how to push himself to the limit. But emotions? Yeah, those are a different kind of battle. He still struggles with showing how much he actually cares, and most of the time, his feelings come out in half-mumbled insults or the way he pulls Izuku close when no one’s looking. Expressing himself is hard, but damn it, he’s trying.

Izuku, on the other hand, has always worn his heart on his sleeve. He overthinks, he worries, and sometimes he wonders if Katsuki will go back to pushing him away. And honestly? Katsuki wonders the same thing. Old habits die hard, and even though he’s doing better, his temper still gets the best of him sometimes. They fight. They get frustrated. They say stupid things they don’t mean.

But they also make up. Katsuki kisses Izuku’s nose without thinking, and Izuku still calls him Kacchan, even when Katsuki rolls his eyes (not that he actually minds). Izuku likes going out on dates, Katsuki prefers staying in, and somehow, they make it work. Most nights, Izuku ends up in Katsuki’s dorm anyway, and neither of them question it.

They’re sixteen. They’re messy, awkward, and still figuring themselves out. But for all the mistakes they make, for all the ways they stumble through this whole dating thing, one thing is certain: they keep choosing each other.

And maybe, in a world that demands strength, love is the bravest thing of all.
