    Summary

    Afraid to start
    Got your heart in a headlock
    I don't believe any of it
    You say too late to start
    With your heart in a headlock
    You know you're better than this

    Izuku’s heart is bound to Kacchan. But Katsuki’s relentless anger, and the violent nature of their relationship have begun to seep into Izuku’s soul like poison. He excuses the sharp words and the moments of cold dismissal, believing them to be fleeting, unimportant. Kacchan loves him too, doesn’t he? But does izuku have the strength to walk away from the person he’s loved for so long?

    When the dam finally breaks and Izuku confides in friends, Shinso. He becomes a lifeline, a safe harbor. In Hitoshi, Izuku finds more than just safety; he discovers kindness, understanding, and perhaps even something more. After years of pain, he doesn’t know if he’s ready to embrace the possibility of love again. Can Izuku trust himself to love someone new? Can he believe that he deserves love that doesn’t hurt, that he’s worthy of something better?

    Or Izuku is in an abusive relationship with Katsuki. And Izuku finds help from friends. From Hitoshi… he finds more than help and safety. But is he ready for… that.
