    Summary

    Seabright Bay is too small to breathe in, and Izuku Midoriya swore he’d never come back. But his mother is sick, so he does. The town, the ocean, the painful memories and the boy who made it hell all waiting where he left them. Katsuki Bakugou isn’t the golden prodigy anymore, he’s a sun-bleached apology in a surf shop, a storm he never learned to name.

    What started at thirteen with salt, a kiss and a cruelty... never stopped pulling. Years of silence calcified into hate, regret, self-loathing and a want neither of them knows how to survive. Now they keep colliding in doorways and bars, on sandbars and sidewalks, caught between who they were and who they’re terrified to be. Izuku is done drowning. Bakugou is done pretending the tide isn’t his fault.

    This is about the love you survive, the apologies that come too late, and the kind of forgiveness that feels like standing in the break and choosing to stay.

     
    “Because the truth was, loving Bakugou had never been the problem. It was surviving it.”

    “You don’t get to call this unfinished, you hear me? You ended it the second you made me wish I was someone else.”

    Summary

    "O-oh... Uh... Okay..." He approached timidly, and the blond turned toward him, sending a shiver down his spine. Crap, this guy had a terrifying aura. Izuku hoped he wouldn’t run into him again.

    "Thank you very much!" Izuku bowed and stole a glance at the blond and-

    Oh no...

    Gay panic.

    The guy was seriously, ridiculously hot. Okay, Izuku had noticed the muscles from behind, which was already telling, but his face? His eyes? He looked like a demon sent to Earth to test the purity of mere mortals like Izuku, because he’d never seen such an intense gaze. Even his scowl was sexy…

    "What?!" the blond snapped, baring perfect teeth.

    Izuku tensed, realizing he’d been staring for too long. His neck flushed red. "S-sorry!" He scurried away as fast as he could without looking like he was running, even though he totally was.

    Summary

    Bakugou Katsuki has a boyfriend. And Izuku didn't know.

    "Look shithead, I’m only telling you because I don’t lie. Never have, never will. And sometimes I’m gonna be busy now, and that’ll be why.”

    Izuku nodded along, too worried to interrupt.

    “Kirishima knows too. He actually introduced us.” Katsuki rubbed his face, as if suddenly exhausted, “I had a crush on you since third year, and I needed to get over your straight ass, so I’m doing that. I’ve moved on.”

    Wait.

    Wait....

    What?

    Summary

    “I want to show you Rome,” Kageyama whispers, unhurried, as if he’s only just allowing himself to verbalise it. “You’ve never been here—my home here. I want you to stay. As long as you want.” He offers a small smile, adding, “Or just a couple of days. If you want.”

    I’ve missed you. That’s what Hinata hears.

    I’ve missed you, too. That’s what Hinata opens his mouth to reply, but swallows back.

    At thirty-four, with two decades of history between them, Hinata prepares for his first visit to Kageyama's home in Italy. He packs a suitcase, full of unasked questions and one resolve.

    Summary

    Then it hit him: "Maybe he just… isn't into me?"

    "How'll you know if you don't ask?" Bokuto groaned.

    "Don't be stupid, I can't just ask something like that." Staring at the table, Kuroo tried to think of a way to ask Kenma whether he was into Kuroo without actually asking him. He jolted upright, looking at Bokuto with a wide grin. "I know! I'll start doing subtle boyfriend stuff and see how he reacts! If he's repulsed by that stuff, I know to stop and give up. And if he doesn't hate it, I'll — " He paused, then waved his hand. "I'll cross that bridge when I get there." Downing the rest of his coffee, he stood up, grinning down at Bokuto and patting his shoulder. "Bro, you always know what to say. Thanks."
