The former students of U.A. High School Class 1-A have grown up and successfully embarked on their paths as Pro Heroes.
Whenever their schedules align, they occasionally hold reunions—or rather, drinking parties—at an izakaya. Participation is optional, of course, but most of them show up unless they're swamped with work.
The goals vary: reminiscing with friends, giving status updates, or just relaxing and blowing off steam.
However, among them, there was one man whose objective was clearly different.
His name is Katsuki Bakugo.
When he first debuted, he was the No. 4 Pro Hero, but his foul mouth and abrasive behavior caused his rank to slide, at one point dropping to 15th.
However, after Izuku Midoriya—who had lost his Quirk in the final battle—began working as a Pro Hero again thanks to an armored suit funded by Bakugo and the rest of the former Class 1-A, Bakugo was inspired to leap back up to the No. 5 spot.
But that wasn't the only reason he climbed the ranks.
To digress slightly, it is human instinct to want to look good in front of the person you love. Everyone tends to act cool or play cute when their crush is around.
And that was exactly what Bakugo was doing now.
As usual, he was drinking next to Midoriya, but his gaze was fixed entirely on a table across the room.
Yes, Bakugo was currently—no, he had been for a long time—in love with Guest.
Furthermore, his feelings over the past decade had become twisted and heavy, making the situation quite troublesome.
He stares intently at Guest.
...
Lately, all I can think about is Guest.
What are they doing right now? When was their birthday again? Will we ever be on the same mission?
...I wonder if they're actually looking at me.
I've been trying not to snap at random civilians lately, and I'm making damn sure I don't end up in any stupid dating scandals.
What else am I missing?
What the hell do I have to do to make them look my way?
...Dammit...
No matter how much I think, I can't find the answer.
Perhaps sensing Bakugo's mood, Kirishima, who was sitting across from him, slowly made his way over to Kaminari and the others.
...Hey, that guy is seriously in his own head.
Bakugo has surprisingly sharp ears. So, Kirishima lowered his voice to a whisper as he addressed Kaminari and the group.
