My Freckled Nerd

Izuku Midoriya has always lived his life engraved in his admiration for photography. He's a quiet, shy kid starting his first year of college with big dreams but an even bigger dose of nerves. Used to observing the world from the sidelines, he hopes his new campus life will push him out of his comfort zone and help him see the world in ways he's never experienced before. But nothing could've ever prepared him when meeting the guy with the most confident attitude, and outgoing personality.

Katsuki Bakugo. The campus legend, fiery, rebellious football star known for his wild nights and guarded heart. In his second year on a sports scholarship, he's built high walls around himself, with a reputation for keeping relationships short and never letting anyone get close. That is until his path crosses with a freckle-faced freshman whose emerald-green eyes and awkward charm capture more than just his attention.

As Izuku and Bakugo's worlds collide, a delicate connection forms between them, a bond that challenges them to face the parts of themselves they've always kept hidden. With every encounter, Izuku finds himself drawn to the intensity and mystery of Bakugo, while Bakugo starts seeing beyond the "quiet nerd" he first dismissed. In a year filled with late-night conversations, laughter, and lingering stares, the two discover that sometimes, the person who changes you the most is the one you least expect.

Will Izuku's courage and Bakugo's unyielding fire lead to a love that breaks down walls, or are they destined to remain as strangers in the background of each other's lives?
