──────────
The heat simmering under Katsuki's skin tonight wasn't unusual, it'd been the same daunting almost taunting feeling gripping at his heart for the past 3 years, ever since the day you'd left him.
He didn't blame you, not one bit. He'd been the one to push you away push, taken you and the whole relationship for granted, just to get to the top, if anyone asked him right now, he'd throw it all away,every title every award just to go back, before the whiplash of fame hit.
Truth was, and still is. He didn't deserve you, didn't deserve your care, your love, your support, but katsuki was a stubborn asshole and amidst the crowd tonight his longing eyes finally landed on who he'd been starving too see for 3 years 5 months 5 days. Yes he'd been counting.
Standing in a suit that Kirishima had forced him to wear once again, his eyes never left your frame, you'd gone m.i.a after the "breakup" left musutafu, you'd always talked about how you wanted to explore bigger cities, and as much as he wanted to beg you back then he couldn't,you blocked him and all the while his stupid immature self couldn't fathom accepting the truth that you two had actually ended things,so he threw himself into even more work, early day patrols even longer night ones, gruesome missions, gym sessions, drinking till oblivion he did everything he could to block out the fact that it was over back then.But as cliché as it sounded the wind was knocked out out his chest the moment he laid eyes on you. You hadn't noticed him yet, engrossed in your conversation with racoon eyes
You'd cut your hair, short, not that he was complaining heck you'd even look beautiful bald. Katsuki let out a sad scoff remembering how you'd always taken pride in your long luscious hair that he'd eventually learned to braid after hours of practice back at ua, the long black dress fit loosely on your body, did you get skinner well he'd hoped not, tch prolly haven't been eati"
"Uhmm it's kinda rude to stare man" kiri rubbed at the back of his neck, Katsuki ignored still transfixed on you while snagging another glass of wine from a waiter passing by
"Tch I-I can do whatever I wanna" he grumbled out words, mumbled shit had he been drinking that much already. Suddenly his eyes cut back to your figure across the room, or rather the new presence standing way to close for his liking. Shoto todoroki embraced you in a side hug and Katsuki as if his heart stopped all over again. Stupid icy hot always eyeing his things, not that you were a thing by any means, he picked another glass of wine as the waiter was passing this time more unsteadily
"yoooo easy on the drin-"
"S-Shut up shitty hair, damn todoroki trying to take what's mine, she's mine I'm gonna s-show him" he slurred rage fully and began to advance towards the lot of you until kiri pulled him back
"Look bro I know you miss y/n and l know how hard the past 3 years have been on you but do you really want her to see this version of you after all this time?"
He stilled for a moment thinking as rationally as he could, he couldn't honestly
"But y/n”he continued a bit louder, this time a few close heads turned
"Bakugo. Shoto isn't doing anything, he's not stealing her she's yours. They're just conversing how normal old pals would okay?"
He held his shoulders trying to ground him
"So just try sobering up okay? For y/n please" he persisted
"m yea mine" he mumbled sadly, eyes still focused on your melodious laughter They both sauntered outside kiri leading him towards the restrooms

It wasn't that you didn't notice him, or were actively trying to ignore him, it's that you couldn't bear to look at him. You still loved him, it was evident. Three years of no contact was a long time, apparently not enough for you to for to let go.
You'd felt his eyes on you the second you walked in, it was the same automatic response you had to him all those years ago when you first fell in love. After three painful years of no contact that you initiated in order to "move on" you'd finally understood that he was your person.
Katsuki was it for you.
You turned your head hoping to not catch his eyes but it seems like he was leaving, as you saw the retreating figures of both him and Eijiro, You couldn't help but feel disappointed. It was stupid, you felt stupid for dressing up more than you'd ever done in the last 3 years going an extra mile by styling your normal flat bob putting on the lipstick shade he'd always said was a hazard, just for him not to even say Hi. Maybe he'd moved on, you let out a broken laugh at the thought, who were you kidding even at that time he had girls lining up for even a glance from him.
But you didn't infact couldn't want anyone else, no that you weren't forced on dates by your friends, sure they were just looking out for you but they didn't understand. It wasn't easy to even look at anyone else, what you had and what Katsuki threw out of the window wasn't just a normal relationship it consumed you both, ever since UA you'd been each others safe space anchoring each other, that's why you'd been reluctant to leave the first 2 years after graduation...
Katsuki was incredibly driven, it was something you always admired him for, but when he started treating you as an option rather than a priority time and time again, it hurt immensely. You were there putting in your all to hold up the broken pieces of what was left of your relationship and he looked as if he couldn't care less. That stung, hurt even more than fighting during the war, but what broke you and made you realize that you had to get out of there was when you poured your heart out to him time and time again and yet he had nothing to say keeping his mouth shut and making his presence even more scarce.
Oh gosh you could feel the tears starting to burn your eyelids just at remembering the dinners alone, missed dates, unanswered texts...
He always justified that he was doing it for you, to make both your lives easier, but it got to a point where you felt like he wanted the title more than anything else, you were a distraction from his main goal. He didn't notice that whilst he was preoccupied exerting himself, he was loosing you simultaneously. The glass in your hand tightened, knuckles whitening with tension
Umm y/n you good girl?" kyoka asked hand on your shoulder voiced laced with worry, "You've been staring at the door for a while now".
Blinking back the tears the best you could, you turned to face her.
"Hmm yeaa just peachy, I think I need a breather, l'll catch you guys later kay" voice all airy from the lump in your throat, you decided to head out for some quiet and before any of your friends could see you break down over a guy who acted like you didn't exist anymore
"how pathetic" you muttered with a scoff leaving the hall with a sad smile and silent tears
