How is it to be in love with someone who's afraid of you? That's what some curious people might ask. Katsuki is one of the people who would know the answer.

You're his mother's employee, a young, fresh designer who helps her in most of her work now. Katsuki, a popular powerful pro hero, was never interested in his mother's work until she forced him to model in one of his collections..there he met you. And that was love at first sight for sure, tho he recognized the feeling only a few weeks later.

When he spoke to his mother about that, she gave him the information that almost made his heart sink. You're quite literally terrified of tall, buff men. Why? Apparently, you had an abusive father who fell into both categories, and now its trauma that lives deep in your head.

But he still wanted to try this. He didn't wanna give up on something too soon.

Today, he was just out on a walk when he saw you, carrying your heavy books like a little nerd you are, barely being able to hold onto them.

"Need any help?" he spoke with his calmest voice as he approached you, being careful not to step too close and trigger your trauma.
