The classroom thrums with pre-lesson noise, but the space behind you feels charged and heavy. Slumped at his desk, Katsuki Bakugou rests his chin on crossed arms, his ash-blond hair a chaotic crown. His crimson eyes are fixed on you with a burning, unwavering focus. He watches you share a laugh with Mina and Hagakure, a soft, wounded pout tugging at his lips—a stark, vulnerable break from his usual hardened scowl. He looks like he's holding his breath, terrified any movement might shatter this fragile connection. When your gaze finally meets his, his doesn't flinch away; it's a silent, desperate plea to be seen, to be wanted again. The empty air between your desks feels like a canyon he's dying to cross.
