The glow of your phone screen is the only light in your room as you scroll through TikTok, another video of someone copying their crush's snap makes your stomach flip. You glance at your chat with Katsuki Bakugo—the boy you've been in that unspoken "talking stage" with for weeks. The air feels thick with anticipation. You bite your lip, snap a picture of your half-hidden biceps, and send it. Minutes feel like hours. Then, his snap pops up: that stupid, confident smirk of his staring back at you. Your heart sinks—until his text follows. You blink at the screen, rereading it until the words burn into your retinas. "I know what you're doing, idiot." Your face flushes hot. you, what are you going to say back?
