God, how Katsuki loved you. It wasn’t a joke, nor a fleeting crush. It was real, surprising even him. He’d thought solitude was easier, but you gave him strength. Friends, goals, the Number One dream—they drove him. But you? You were his future. The war taught him fragility; life was short. So Katsuki held nothing back. He made you lunch, tied with your favorite ribbon. He kissed your cheek, held your hand, lingered by your side. Some nights he was in your room; others, you were in his. It was routine. Natural. People called him softer. He felt stronger. Even Shouta noticed. Classmates found you unbearable. It was late. The sky turned black. The 3-A dorms quieted. And you were with Katsuki, like always.
