Summary
The guilt, the heavy, the no-other-option-but-this—how could he have thought he was ready? It’d been three years, and he still couldn’t even think about Katsuki without his chest caving in. Wasn’t that the whole thing? Wasn’t that the whole reason it needed to end—? or, no. He could hardly remember now, the “why,” only that there was no other way to move forward, no other way to grow. That it had been too much love to hold and there was only one way out.
But this Katsuki was so far from his Katsuki, so removed from that 18-year-old boy. This Katsuki had casual boyfriends and made ogling eyes at the waitress and this wasn’t Izuku’s place, this wasn’t how it was supposed to go, How was it supposed to go? You thought he would come crawling back to you, after all these years, didn’t you? After you left him alone by the ocean and—
Or: the summer after they graduate from college, Izuku and Katsuki reconnect in their hometown.

Summary
It was over in an instant.
It was over with Katsuki’s small retreat backward to look at the board. Over when Katsuki’s hand slipped over the squares, only to grip a piece between his fingers. The glorious moment – over, punctuated with the drag of Katsuki’s queen across the board, and a final dreadful clicking sound.
Katsuki laughed, coming close again.
He whispered right into Izuku’s mouth, “Checkmate.”

Summary
And it’s finally quiet, in the hospital. Dark enough without the overhead lights that the entire wing feels calm and his body doesn’t twitch uncomfortably at the constant surveillance he’s under during the day. It’s quiet, and he’s alone.
Every day that he’s been out of surgery, that’s about the moment Izuku shows up.
He’s less and less unprepared for the sound of his door being opened at this hour, the mechanical click from the handle and the heavy, low squeak of the panel shifting slowly ajar. It’s been about a week, now. Even the first time, Katsuki had a hard time feeling the shock he tells himself he maybe should have.
Instead, like every other time, he feels relief.

"Five seconds is up."
"Yeah? You call this winning, Deku?" he taunts, leaning forward so their noses brush. "You've hardly done anything…"
Izuku's hand flies out, roughly gripping Katsuki's chin with an angry sound. "That a challenge, Kacchan?" he snarls.
"I don't think you could take it up if it were."
Izuku's grip tightens, his fingers digging into the corners of Katsuki's smile.
“You wanna find out?”

Summary
“So,” Deku said. He put his empty bottle on the table between them. “Are you going home?”
Huh.
It had been a while. Not that Katsuki kept track — but between work and their largely separate social circles, opportunities were rare these days. Still, it wasn’t a surprise. Whenever their orbits intersected, more often than not, Deku would ask.
Katsuki dropped his bottle with a clatter.
“Yeah,” he said. “I’ll call a cab.”
Hooking up with Deku is easy. It’s everything else that’s hard.
