Okay, not sure what happened to the title and description, but they just disappeared one day? Anyway, it's an awful story about a dark secret past with Bakugo and Midoriya that they're trying to navigate while also navigating their relationship. Seriously, it's bad. I recommend the rewrite if you want to read it. Description for book one of the rewrite: Bakugo's a walking and talking nightmare. He has one last chance to clean up his act before he gets expelled. One last chance to change his future. Midoriya can't say no. He can't put his foot down and ends up letting everyone walk all over him to the point that he's exhausted and miserable. The problem is they don't know how to handle the trauma that made them that way. They don't know how to fix what happened to them. They're coping in the best ways they can, but it isn't enough anymore. If either of them wants a chance at a good future, they need to change. Their mothers are hoping a little summer getaway will help with that.
