She didn't choose him. He didn't choose her. But their families did... and now they're stuck in vows that might burn hotter than his explosions. Slow burn (not really) Characters are 18+ and in their final year at U.A. Warnings: Explicit content (smut), profanity.

"𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙤𝙬 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣?" "..𝐌𝐡𝐦.." "𝙏𝙘𝙝.. 𝙐𝙨𝙚 𝙢𝙮 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙧." ---- In their third year at U.A., everything is supposed to be loud-explosions, training, expectations, futures rushing toward them at full speed. But for Bakugo Katsuki and you, love settles in quietly. Your quirk, Sonic Blast, burns through body heat as fuel-leaving you exhausted, buzzing, or cold when you push too far. Bakugo doesn't like being touched. He never has. But somehow, somewhere between late-night training sessions, accidental hand-holding, and slow, careful trust, he becomes your safest source of warmth. You don't kiss right away. You don't rush. You learn each other instead. What starts as a practical solution becomes a routine. What becomes a routine turns into something neither of you is willing to give up. And when graduation looms, when dorm doors close and futures split open wide, Bakugo makes a choice-quiet, impulsive, terrifying in its honesty. He doesn't know what comes next. But he knows he wants you there. 🥇 Bakugo 04/01/26 🥇 Bakugou 05/01/26 🥇 Bnha 07/01/26

"𝙌𝙐𝙄𝙏 𝙇𝙊𝙊𝙆𝙄𝙉' 𝙊𝙑𝙀𝙍 𝙈𝙔 𝙎𝙃𝙊𝙐𝙇𝘿𝙀𝙍!" ---- At U.A. High, secrets don't last long. So when Katsuki Bakugo's phone lights up with a message from a contact named "Homebody <3," the class explodes with questions. Who is she? How long has this been going on? And how did Bakugo-loud, volatile, impossible Bakugo-manage to hide a girlfriend from everyone? As rumors spiral and an unofficial investigation takes over the dorms, the truth remains quietly out of reach. Because Bakugo and (Y/N) aren't hiding anything. They're just... private. They've been together since middle school, loving each other through quiet gestures instead of grand displays-shared snacks, exchanged notes, a hand resting over clenched fists. While the class searches for drama, they miss the steady, unshakable bond right in front of them.

"𝘽𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙬, 𝙆𝙖𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙠𝙞" "𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐭" "𝙍𝙪𝙙𝙚" ---- When Katsuki Bakugo disappears under accusations that threaten to destroy his career, the last place he expects to wake up is in a stranger's barn-half a world away from hero society, buried under hay and silence. Y/N is just a farmer. She lives half an hour outside Tokyo, wakes up before dawn, and knows more about cows than pro heroes. She never planned on hiding Japan's No. 5 Hero-but when a wounded man shows up needing help, she doesn't turn him away. As the city hunts for Dynamight, Katsuki learns a different rhythm of life: early mornings, muddy boots, quiet kindness, and a woman who sees him not as a weapon-but as someone who deserves rest. While the truth inches closer to the surface, two lives collide in the middle of nowhere. 🥇 Bakugoukatsuki 07/01/26

"𝙒𝙖𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙖 𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙡𝙡?" ---- When Pro Hero Katsuki Bakugo ends his relationship to "protect" the woman he loves, he thinks distance will make things easier-for both of them. But distance only amplifies the silence... and the silence becomes deafening. (Y/N) refuses to crumble. She rebuilds her life with new friends, late-night shifts at a quiet bar, and the unexpected comfort of a charming magician who seems to know exactly when she needs to laugh. But healing isn't linear and heartbreak leaves shadows that don't fade easily. Half a world away, Bakugo unravels. He tells himself he made the right choice. He tells himself he doesn't care she's moving on. He tells himself he can breathe without her. He's wrong. When a single rumor shatters his fragile denial, Bakugo finds himself fighting a new kind of battle-one he can't win with explosions or brute force. It's messy. Human. Terrifying. And it forces him to confront the one truth he's been running from: you don't stop loving someone just because you think you should.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐝𝐚𝐲" "𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩.. 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙢𝙣 𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙤" ════ ⋆★⋆ ════ At twenty-seven, (Y/N) is done. Done with doubles. Done with understaffed night shifts. Done with scrubbing questionable substances off hospital walls. Her quirk-Chiropractor, the ability to relieve pain and tension with a touch-might make her a miracle worker, but it can't save her from burnout. She's exhausted, sarcastic, and one cracked vertebra away from quitting healthcare entirely. Then life throws her the world's most explosive curveball: She moves into the house right next door to Bakugo Katsuki-now the No. 5 Pro Hero, fully grown, annoyingly gorgeous, and carrying a secret guilt he's tried to bury for years. They haven't seen each other since their early twenties. Since that night. Their reckless, drunken, unforgettable one-night stand. To her? It was hot, wild, and not worth a shred of regret. To him? It was a mistake-not because of her, but because he thinks he didn't treat her right. Didn't ask her out. Didn't make it special. Didn't deserve it. And now that she's back in his life, his guilt turns into something unexpected: Homemade bentos. Left on her doorstep. Every morning. Like an apology he can't stop giving. But as her terrible shifts pile up, her quirk starts easing his old injuries, and their tense doorstep conversations turn into something dangerously warm, one thing becomes clear: This isn't about regret anymore. It's about healing-his body, her burnout, their past. And maybe, if the universe doesn't interfere first... something worth fighting for.

(Y/N), a sweet but scatterbrained hero-in-training, spends most of her days trying not to forget her homework, her lunch money, or the fact that she tends to glitch herself into walls when she gets excited. Her quirk may let her blink across distances and stun opponents like a system error, but her heart? Totally unprotected. Then there's Katsuki Bakugo - explosive prodigy, walking inferno, and the last person anyone expects to be soft for someone. Except he is. Painfully so. And everyone knows it. Everyone... except her. From warming her hands in winter to dragging her to "totally-not-a-date" arcades, Bakugo finds himself doing everything he can to prove his worth to the one person too dense to see he's been in love with her for months. Through training mishaps, glitch accidents, late-night talks, jealousy wars, and soft private moments, (Y/N) slowly uncovers what everyone else already figured out: Bakugo doesn't just care. He's gone for her. And when sparks meet glitches, maybe-just maybe-the system finally crashes in the best way possible. A slow-burn romance full of fluff, tension, miscommunication, healing, and a boy with explosions for hands who learns how to hold someone gently. 🥈 bakugou 14/11/25 🥇 myheroacademia 21/11/25

Bakugo Katsuki isn't the type to fall in love-at least, that's what everyone thinks. (Y/n) doesn't believe she's worth anyone's attention, especially not his. But when his harsh voice softens around her, when his eyes linger a little too long, she starts to wonder if maybe she's not imagining it after all. It's a slow, burning kind of love-the kind that hurts before it heals. Inspired by Mitski's "First Love / Late Spring" - a story about quiet devotion, unspoken feelings, and learning to be loved by the person you least expected. 🥇 Bakugouxreader 06/11/25 🥇 myheroacademia 10/11/25 🥇 Bakugo 15/11/25
