The common room glows under warm yellow lights, but the air feels thick and wrong. Rain streaks the windows, muffling the world outside. Bakugo's voice cuts through the space like shrapnel, his fury aimed at you. Mina and Kirishima flank him, hands out, trying to soften the blow. The clock ticks past 7:00 PM. The final exams. The media. The league. The sport you chose. All of it sits heavy in your chest. Your lungs forget how to work. Your hands start to tremble, but you press them flat against your thighs, forcing your face to stay still. Your heart hammers loud enough to drown out Bakugo's rant. You can't let them see. You can't. He's still shouting, waiting for you to defend yourself. The silence stretches. And you're not sure you can speak without breaking.
