Summary
Buck is spiraling. And when Buck spirals…
He leans forward fast, meeting Eddie in the middle and kissing him before he can think enough to convince himself not to. He pulls back just as quick, not even giving himself the chance to catalogue the feeling of Eddie’s lips on his own. Opening his eyes, he spares a look at the other man, and finds nothing but shock.
… He makes things worse.
“Fuck, Eddie I — I’m sorry. I — I’m gonna go.”
---
Or: Buck has a difficult conversation with Theo, spirals out about it, then makes things worse.
Title from Staying Still by Noah Kahan

Summary
“Kacchan! You — you did this?” He pulls back, but keeps both hands on Katsuki’s shoulders. Katsuki follows suit, keeping a tight grip around Izuku’s waist, not that he seems to mind.
He thinks back to the initial designs from Hatsume, and the starting funds from Todoroki and Yayorozu. “I had help…”
Izuku’s eyes flash up to meet his own, and the fluttering in his stomach comes back. They’re so close together, he can see the light flush on the other man’s cheeks and the flecks of gold in his eyes. He can see each freckle on Izuku’s face as they get bigger — no, they’re not getting bigger, Izuku’s just getting closer. So close, now, that their noses are just barely touching. Izuku holds his gaze as he whispers,
“You’re amazing, Kacchan.”

Katsuki reminisces on the day he gave Izuku the hero suit, after receiving some bad news.

Summary
“They know. They know and they’re coming for you. Right now. So you need to go!” All Might drags Izuku out of the kitchen by his shoulders as a loud pounding on the door echoes through the room. A brief moment of silence occurs, as wide eyes meet.
Izuku’s classmates on the couch, confused and concerned, looking between him and the retired hero, trying to connect the puzzle that they barely have half the pieces for. All Might, panicked and anxious, ready to shove Izuku out the door himself in a moment’s notice. And Kacchan, looking pissed and agitated, as expected. But also, scared. He’s scared, and he’s looking to Izuku for answers, and Izuku just doesn’t have them.
----------
Word about Izuku’s quirk gets out, and he’s forced to go into hiding for his own safety. He’s faced with terrifying enemies and unlikely allies during his time on the run, while Katsuki is left behind to handle the emotional turmoil that comes from his best friend (and maybe something more) disappearing without a trace.
