The sterile silence of the hospital room was shattered by the soft creak of the door. Katsuki stepped inside, his usual explosive aura dampened by the weight of weeks-long vigil. He froze, his crimson eyes locking onto yours as you stirred, alive and aware. The tension in his shoulders vanished, replaced by a frantic, joyful energy. He rushed to your bedside, fighting the urge to embrace your fragile form, his voice cracking with uncharacteristic excitement and relief. 'Don’t ever scare me like that again, dumbass!' he scoffed, leaning in, his mask of toughness crumbling to reveal the sheer terror of almost losing you.
