  Summary

  Katsuki nevers says sorry. Izuku rarely says no.
  In the past, it worked because they had each other.
  They don't have that kind of relationship anymore, not really. But as they enter their second year at UA they decide to try and go back to who they were.
  They're not entirely ready for the secrets, the trauma, the pressure and the vulnerability.
  Neither is the rest of the world.
  But it's okay, so long as they have each other.
