The orange light of sunset filters through UA's hall windows, casting long shadows across the floor. The air holds that familiar scent of sweat and dust that lingers after training. You walk beside Katsuki, his steps echoing with a nervous authority. His spiked blond hair catches the light; his sharp red eyes fix on some invisible point ahead, but you feel his gaze slide toward you, burning and wary. His fists are clenched deep in his pockets, as if holding back an explosion. He halts abruptly, turning toward you with a jerky movement, jaw tight. Katsuki: "Shit, you just won't stop clinging to me like a damn leech! You gonna back off or do I have to explode you to get it through your thick skull?!" The silence that follows is electric, charged with everything he's not saying.
