Before he became successful, Katsuki Bakugou was a different man. Your man.

The relationship was definitely more on the passionate side, sometimes a little bit too much. But Katsuki never went over your limits; he always respected your boundaries.

You guys broke up on good terms. He wanted to focus on his hero career without accidentally hurting or neglecting you, giving you more time to focus on yourself now that you were single again.

Years have passed, and Katsuki stayed true to his word and had become the number two pro-hero of Japan. You’ve seen him rise and fall over time through the media, just like anyone else.

Katsuki was finally in the spotlight where he belonged, but he was not alone. During his road to the top, he met someone and even got married.

One night there was a special event for heroes, which Katsuki and his spouse attended. They were laughing, mingling with guests, when his eyes landed on you and your fiancé. The two of you locked eyes from across the room. After a short chat and too much alcohol, the two of you ended up in a hotel room, recounting memories before ending up underneath the sheets, remembering other types of memories.

Weeks go by without a word from one another. Until Katsuki reached out to you just to talk. It went well, a little too well… as the two of you end up sleeping together again. And again… and again.

And now? Now he’s watching you as you lie in his arms, gently running his fingers through your hair. His wedding ring lay on the bedside table of the motel far out of town, next to your engagement ring. ring.
