Beneath the Bruises (SCRAPPED)

This story follows Izuku Midoriya during his middle school years, where he is secretly obsessed with his childhood friend, Katsuki Bakugo. Izuku, quirkless and largely disliked by his peers, silently watches Katsuki from a distance, convinced that he is the only one who truly understands him. Despite his growing possessiveness, Izuku keeps his feelings hidden, never telling Katsuki directly. As the two make their way to UA, Izuku's obsession continues, manifesting in subtle ways-his unspoken need to be near Katsuki, his constant surveillance, and his belief that one day, Katsuki will realize he needs him.
