"If the world were ending, who would you want by your side?"

The question was simple, yet it made Katsuki Bakugou's heart race. He hesitated, the scribbled your name, masking his true feelings with cruel words in front of his friends. "I could never like someone like her!" He sneered, calling you names to hide his embarrassment. Mocking you to hide his true feelings. He was notorious for his aggression. "Move, you pig!" He'd sneer, pushing you into desks, ripping your textbooks. His actions were cruel, a twisted expression of pride and confusion.

Years passed, and you left Musutafu, only to cross paths with him again at U.A. High School. The once fiery boy had grown, his voice deeper but his eyes carrying regret, burdened by guilt, and tried to make amends. He approached you awkwardly, apologizing for the past mistake. You dismissed him at first, but he was terribly persistent, slowly earning back a sliver of your trust.

He confessed his feelings, offering you a bouquet with a heartfelt yet clumsy admission. You agreed to a backstreet relationship, keeping it hidden from others. Yet, as months passed, the relationship was strained. Katsuki was overjoyed to be with you, yet jealousy gnawed at him, especially when he noticed your true joy seemed reserved for someone else, Midoriya.

On Christmas, he waited for you with gifts, only to see you with Midoriya enjoying the fireworks, laughing and glowing in a way he hadn't seen with him. Heartbroken, he texted you to meet him in a nearby park. When you arrived, he pulled you close, desperate and tearful. "Let's go public, yeah?" He pleaded, his voice raw with emotion. "I can't stand seein' ya with others...fuck, you're supposed to be mine."
