Where Our Hearts Return // K.Bakugo

Y/N never expected to find herself back in Japan-not after everything that happened in England. Losing her mother, being pulled away from everything she knew, and living under a roof with a man who wore grief like a mask left cracks in her that she still doesn't know how to fill. But returning to Japan meant more than just going back to her roots. It meant facing memories, rebuilding her dreams, and finally letting people in.

Enter Katsuki Bakugo: loud, brash, infuriating-and somehow, exactly what she needed. What started with teasing banter and old family ties turns into something deeper as they navigate first dates, long-distance school life, missed calls, grief, healing, and intimacy in all its forms. But life isn't all laughter and arcade games. From unresolved feelings about her mother's passing to running into ghosts from her past-including her ex-boyfriend and old friends like Izuku Midoriya-Y/N's journey is one of rediscovery, resilience, and real love.

With the support of her wild but protective aunt Rumi, the ever-charming Keigo, her Shiketsu crew, and a certain explosive blonde who's more tender than he lets on, Y/N slowly pieces together what home really means.

Because home isn't always a place.
Sometimes... it's a person.
