After a villain's memory-erasing quirk strikes on Valentine's Day, Bakugo forgets his boyfriend Izuku and treats him like an intrusive stranger in the dorms.

A villain's memory erasing quirk strikes on Valentine's Day, severing thousands of precious, delicate threads in an instant. Every shared secret, every tender kiss in the dark, every quiet promise of a future together, and every single trace of Izuku Midoriya's existence is violently ripped out of Katsuki's mind. The comfortable, open relationship they built over months of shared history vanishes overnight, replaced by an icy, hollow void where a deep love used to burn.

Returning to the Class 1A common room, Katsuki walks through the heavy glass doors completely oblivious to the world shattering damage awaiting inside. The carefully chosen bouquet of soft pink and white flowers he had agonized over buying is unceremoniously tossed onto the kitchen counter like a piece of worthless household trash. As his crimson eyes lock onto Izuku standing by the couch, there is no softening in his sharp features, no subtle smirk, and no flush on his cheeks... only a look of profound, chilling confusion toward a boy he used to hold so tenderly.

The sudden, brutal detachment leaves Class 1A in shocked silence, forcing Izuku to face a version of Katsuki that looks right through him. Underneath his usual aggressive scowl and loud, abrasive bark, Katsuki now views his own boyfriend as nothing more than an intrusive, unwelcome stranger standing in the middle of their living room. Every hopeful glance and desperate step forward is met with hostile, defensive boundaries from a boy who genuinely cannot fathom why an outsider feels so entitled to his affection.

Yet beneath the thick wall of amnesia, a faint, phantom ghost of his feelings lingers just beneath the surface. His body still reacts to Izuku on pure instinct... stepping in to protect him, tensing up at the sound of his voice, or hesitating whenever those green eyes shine with heartbreak... even while his conscious mind rejects the connection entirely. Izuku is forced to navigate the devastating reality of rebuilding a shattered bond with a boy who thinks they are complete strangers, entirely unaware of the crushing guilt and overwhelming devotion that will come flooding back the moment those buried memories finally break free.
