Bystander || A Toji x Y/n story

II

I pay the driver and start walking up the steps still unsure of what to do. I sighed taking a deep breath before entering the main hall. When I hear Gojo yelling and sliding the door open before I could.

"Y/n! See she's back! It was an easy job that's why I left it to her!"

He hides behind me, little did he know he should've been hiding from me instead.

I hold his hand and dig my nails into it.

"Yeah, Gojo-kun you did the right thing. Did you enjoy shopping?"

"OUCH!! I'm sorry! I-I shouldn't have left you! Please let me go!"

I let his hand go it was only bleeding a little nothing compared to the inconvenient situation he put me in.

"You went too far Y/n!"
He whines.

"Did I?"
I put a smile on my face but a sneer in my voice.

"Nah he deserved it."
Geto laughs.

We all sit together talking about what might be our next mission. I decided not to tell them in the end. My mind keeps drifting off to the note in my pocket. So I took off my jacket and kept it aside.

"Y/n?"
Shoko looks at me. She figured out I was distracted.

"You seem to be rather aloof today Y/n."
Geto adds.

"I was just wondering if you've ever met that man called Toji."
The room goes silent.

"I haven't met him yet but if I do I don't think he'll be that hard to beat."
Gojo says overconfident as ever.

"I haven't seen him before Y/n"

"Neither have I."
Geto and Shoko answer together.

"I see."
I get up.

"Y/n? Did you by chance run into him-?"
Geto sounded concerned.

"Nope. I was just wondering what kind of a person he is, or rather what should I do if I meet him in the future."
I brush off his question.

"Run, was it? I don't think you would do that if you ever did meet him Y/n. Knowing you, I can say that."
Gojo lowers his glasses a bit.

"Well then maybe you don't know me well enough. I don't plan on dying anytime soon."
I pick up my jacket.

"Are you going somewhere Y/n?"
Shoko raises a question about me being concerned.

"Yeah just to meet an old friend."
Friend? Yeah right.

"Okay take care Y/n."
Geto lies back on his chair.

"See you later Y/n."
Shoko waves at me.

"Ah get me an Ice-cream Y/n!"
Gojo walks up to me.

"Why should I do that for you Gojo?"

"Please? I promise I'll help you on the next mission."
He gives me a flirtatious smile.

"Why don't you both just go together?"
Shoko suggests.

"No-"

"Let's go on a date then Y/n!"
He cuts me off grabs my hand and drags me away. There was no way I could overwhelm this overgrown man child's strength so I simply went along with him.

"Could you let go of my hand now Gojo-kun?"
It was starting to feel uncomfortable being dragged by this giant.

He lets it go and there was a trace left by his tight grasp, it was red. I hid it.

"Sorry if I held on too tightly Y/n-"

"If you're sorry then you shouldn't have in the first place."

He moves slightly away from me.

"I didn't mean to hurt you Y/n."

"Well, whatever I'll forget it this time."

It did hurt, but it also felt sort of good in a way. Am I going insane?
