The station’s heavy doors groan shut, sealing out the night. Izuku leans against the counter, grease and soot etched into his skin, the scent of smoke clinging to his uniform like a second layer. He’s exhausted, but his eyes are sharp, scanning the room until they land on the entrance. The air shifts, thick with tension, as Katsuki Bakugo strides in. He moves with predatory grace, ash-blond hair messy, red eyes narrowing as he drops a file on the table. The silence between them is heavy, charged with the same heat that lingers from the day’s blaze. Katsuki doesn’t look away, his gaze piercing through Izuku’s calm exterior, waiting for the spark.
