    Summary

    Seabright Bay is too small to breathe in, and Izuku Midoriya swore he’d never come back. But his mother is sick, so he does. The town, the ocean, the painful memories and the boy who made it hell all waiting where he left them. Katsuki Bakugou isn’t the golden prodigy anymore, he’s a sun-bleached apology in a surf shop, a storm he never learned to name.

    What started at thirteen with salt, a kiss and a cruelty... never stopped pulling. Years of silence calcified into hate, regret, self-loathing and a want neither of them knows how to survive. Now they keep colliding in doorways and bars, on sandbars and sidewalks, caught between who they were and who they’re terrified to be. Izuku is done drowning. Bakugou is done pretending the tide isn’t his fault.

    This is about the love you survive, the apologies that come too late, and the kind of forgiveness that feels like standing in the break and choosing to stay.

     
    “Because the truth was, loving Bakugou had never been the problem. It was surviving it.”

    “You don’t get to call this unfinished, you hear me? You ended it the second you made me wish I was someone else.”

    Summary

    [Wednesday | Kacchan: 5:59PM] hey i found the recipe for that pasta sauce you liked. i’ll make it for you this weekend

    Izuku is so engrossed in his and Kacchan’s homemade dinner plans that he misses Aizawa standing at the beginning of the stairway at the end of the hall.

    “Midoriya.”

    Izuku startles, just for a moment, his smile faltering. The way Aizawa carries himself now is… stiff. Face angled down, shadowed by the bangs of his short black hair. “Oh, Aizawa-san!” He keeps his voice peppy and bright. “Are you… can I help with something?”

    “Midoriya,” Aizawa repeats. And then, Izuku finally hears it. Barely there, completely missable if you weren’t used to the way the man talks. A waver. “Izuku.”

    Then, Izuku is forced to hear two words his childhood best friend promised him he would never have to.

    “It’s Bakugo.”

    Or: After the sudden passing of his best friend, Izuku finally reads the texts Katsuki meant to send, but never deliver.

    Summary

    A strangled sob ripped out of him, so loud it startled him, tore at his throat. He clapped his free hand over his mouth to try and stifle it, but his chest heaved too hard, air hitching in broken fragments that refused to shape into words.

    “I—I can’t—Ochaco, I—” His voice cracked down the middle, words tumbling out jagged between sobs. “Why him? Why—what did I do wrong? Why can’t it ever be me?”

    “Oh, Izuku…” Her voice gentled further, soft and frayed with worry. “Breathe, okay? Just breathe for me.”

    But he couldn’t. His breaths came fast and sharp, shallow gasps that made his vision swim. His thoughts spun faster than he could control, his mouth chasing them desperately.

    “He’s—he’s so happy, Ochaco. And she’s perfect. She’s everything I’m not. I—God, I tried so hard. I loved him so much. And it—it’s like it doesn’t matter. It never mattered.”
    -------------
    Or Katsuki is getting married, and Izuku knows his love will never be reciprocated.

    Summary

    Katsuki growled, clutching at his spiked mullet in frustration, yanking lightly at the strands. That old habit—Izuku recognized it. Katsuki only did that when he was spiraling, when the anger inside him turned inward and got ugly. Izuku’s heart tugged at the sight.

    He wanted to help. He always had. But how? Should he say something? Back off? Agree to fail this project? No—he couldn't do that either.

    "Fuck this. I’m leaving."

     

    -OR-

     

    Izuku just wants to know why his childhood best friend suddenly started hating him. Katsuki would rather eat nails than talk about it.

    Now they’re stuck writing poems about eachother
