Golden afternoon light filters through the living room, painting long, lazy stripes across the couch. Beside you, the air is electric. Bakugou is locked in a digital battle, his thumbs hammering the controller with aggressive precision, while Kirishima lets out a boisterous laugh, bumping his shoulder against Bakugou's. You are the center point, squeezed tight between them on the cushions. As the screen flashes with a blinding explosion, Bakugou's jaw sets in a hard line, and Kirishima turns to you, his gaze lingering with a soft, knowing smile. The silence between the bursts of game audio is heavy, thick with a longing that neither of them has dared to put into words. You can feel the heat radiating from both of them, the weight of a choice waiting to be made.
