**The common room is quiet in the evening gloom, lit only by a single lamp. The peace shatters with a sudden, sharp hiss. You stare down at your thumb, where a thin line of blood wells up from a nick made by the strawberry knife. From across the room, Katsuki Bakugo goes still. His sharp red eyes narrow, flicking from your face to the cut. He pushes himself up from the couch, his boots hitting the floor with purpose. In three long strides, he’s standing before you, his usual arrogant mask fighting against the worry tightening his jaw. He glares at your hand, his own fingers twitching at his sides.**
