Izuku Midoriya has always loved Katsuki Bakugo, but not in the way the world loves a hero. He loved him loud and starstruck, but quietly. Constantly. In a way that never asked for anything back.
After a brutal breakup with someone he thought he'd spend his life with, Bakugo is raw, withdrawn, and colder than ever. Izuku knows better than to hope. But still, he stays. Still, he shows up. Still, he waits for something. Anything. To shift between them.
As the two grow closer in the quiet spaces between heartbreak and healing, their bond deepens into something unspoken. Something fragile. Something that might be love... if only either of them were brave enough to say it.
But love, like silence, can't hold forever.
And when the end comes, will it be with shouting and fireworks? Or will it be with the soft sound of a door closing, and the echo of things left unsaid?

In the Silence, I Hear You.
In a world where silence speaks louder than words, Pro Hero Izuku Midoriya is Japan's #1-and painfully alone. Katsuki Bakugou, now #2, is losing his hearing, and with it, the chances to say what he never could. Years after U.A., a brutal mission forces them back together. When Izuku is critically injured, Katsuki is left at his bedside-haunted by guilt, memories, and the things left unsaid. As recovery brings reconciliation, their bond begins to shift from broken friendship to something deeper. A slow-burn story of regret, healing, and love in the quiet spaces between battle scars and rooftop stakeouts. 🏷️ Hashtags #Bakudeku #BNHAFanfic #DeafBakugouAU #ProHeroAU #SlowBurn #Angst #Fluff #FriendsToLovers #MyHeroAcademia #MHA #KatsukiBakugou #IzukuMidoriya #HeroDeku #Dynamight #QueerRomance #FoundFamily #EmotionalFanfic #SoftBakugou #PostUAAU #Fanfiction ⚠️ **Content Warnings** * Canon-typical violence * Graphic injury/hospitalization * Angst (heavy emotional themes) * Hearing loss/disability representation (Bakugou) * Flashbacks to bullying * Mention of self-worth issues and regret * Recovery/rehabilitation themes * Strong languageComplete![𝙷𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚒𝚎𝚛...

𝙷𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚒𝚎𝚛... [𝙱𝚊𝚔𝚞𝚍𝚎𝚔𝚞]
(Quirk AU) I saw this picture...saw the comments...and BOOM, I decided to write a fanfic :3 this is also my very first fanfic so sorry if it isn't that good. Deku always looked up to his kacchan since they were kids. But, it was in middle school when he found out he had feelings for the hot-headed teen. He knew that bakugou would never like him back so he just admires him from afar. "He's happier without me". But one day, Deku finds out Bakugou's birthday is coming up, and he wants to throw him a party. But there's a problem. Bakugou is happier when deku isn't near him. How is Deku going to do this surprise party without himself in it? Is Bakugou actually happier when Deku isn't near him? And does Bakugou like Deku as well? Read to find out! :) (A lot of music bonding is in this as well, well not a lot, but I thought I'd tell ya) Thank u too @Sweetkat15 for helping me come up with the title luv u <3 ~Swearing ~boyxboy ~maybe adult topics ~Angst ~other ships ✰no.1 in #surpriseparty on 03/14/21 ✰no.2 in #bakugou on 6/2/21 out of 1,000+ ✰no.2 in #midoriya on 6/2/21 out of 1,000+Complete
