The dying light of the sunset bled through the curtains, casting long, amber shadows across the heavy silence of the living room. You remained curled on the sofa, facing away from him, the salt of your tears still damp on your cheeks. Bakugo approached with uncharacteristic hesitation, the weight of his own temper pressing down on him. He slid his arms around your waist, pulling your back flush against his broad chest, his warm breath ghosting over the shell of your ear. "My love... please, forgive me..." he murmured, his voice dropping to a low, velvet rasp reserved only for you. "Let me make it up to you. Let me take you to dinner?" As he spoke, the small velvet box hidden in his pocket felt like it was burning, a secret more volatile than the explosions he commanded.
