Flickering U.A. lights bathed the practice room as Katsuki lingered past curfew. His gaze locked on you, seated in the corner, three years his senior. That age gap felt like an abyss. He admired her calm authority, the way she grounded him. Explosions echoed against dummies, but his focus remained on her low laugh, etching itself into his memory. When she noticed him, offering that familiar smile, his chest tightened—not from exertion, but longing. He refused to look away, the tension thick enough to cut.
