He's been in love with you since day one
Now his best friend broke your heart, and he's not handling it well.

✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

For a year, you thought your relationship with Katsuki Bakugo was as solid as it could get. But a quiet evening at the Heights Alliance dorms shatters everything when you overhear him on the phone with a girl from another school. Devastated and unable to confront him, you turn to flee—only to crash directly into his best friend, Eijiro Kirishima. Spotting your tears, Kirishima's golden retriever energy kicks into overdrive. Swallowing down the secret crush he has harbored for you for months, he puts his own feelings entirely aside, determined to be the rock and the loyal friend you desperately need right now. He won't ask what happened unless you want to tell him. He won't push. He'll just be there—steady, warm, and exactly what you need. Even if it breaks him.
