RECKLESS AS EVER

It was getting late and the boy was still hanging around the other two teens without a care in the world. She was starting to lose her patience, but she knew she couldn't do as she pleased since she was watched way too closely for her liking.

"Are you done?" her firm voice surprised the three of them

"You don't have to shadow me all day, I am not a child. I do not need a babysitter" the dark haired boy said with a sigh

"I hate this far more than you do, but I have no other choice so you must comply as well" her eyes were empty like those beautiful seashells he founded on the beach

"So what now? Are you going to follow me to sleep as well?" he almost find it amusing

"I could do that if you feel at ease that way. There's no such thing for me in this world that I can't do. And even if there is, I will die trying to get it done" even if her words were cold, there was a certain sadness behind them

"Whatever" the boy finally said as he was ready to leave his friends to go back to his room

"No need to be so stiff  Y/N-chan" the masculine voice everyone knew suddenly made an appearance

She hated to know that she had to encounter him even more now, but at the same time she knew she couldn't avoid it. No matter how much she tried Gojo will always be there, if not physically, in her heart and mind there surely will be a place where he is present.

"Call me that one more time and these kids shall witness a murder scene" her katana was merely a few inches from his throat, the only thing keeping it away was his special ability, the infinity

"Always so rude" he whined "I miss the good old days when you would call me sweet names" he was not mocking her, but it surely seemed that way

"Did you and Y/N know each other?" the brown haired girl asked

She didn't want to get into this discussion, but it seemed like Gojo has been waiting to tell this story for a very long time.

"Of course! We went to the same school, but when she was a first year, I was in my last. So we only spent one year together. She used to like me a bit too much, didn't you Y/N-chan?" now he was surely teasing her

Instead of responding to whatever he was trying to achieve, she pushed him away, making sure to drag the black haired boy along.

"Wasn't she always like...this?" Nobara asked as she looked at her teacher

"Not even close" he sighed

For the first time Itadori and Nobara were seeing their teacher sigh with such emotion. It was clear that the older man was bothered by how the woman was acting up or perhaps by how she has changed over the years.

"Were you looking for me, Gojo?" a familiar voice caught their attention once again

"Nanami!" the young boy cheered as he saw his partner

"Good to see you too, Itadori" he greeted the boy "Is there any reason why I had to stop by instead of going home, Satoru?" he asked with a sigh, clearly tired from his workplace

"Of course! This is a very serious matter so I will have to send you off kids. Adults need to talk" he goofed around with the two teens

As they were left alone, he could sense that his friend was serious about it, perhaps he even had some bad news regarding it.

"So?" Nanami asked as he looked at the white haired male

"She came back" he said with a tone that did not suit him

"Why? I thought she ran off to Osaka" he sighed as he leaned on the wall

"Yababa sent her to look after Megumi, but I'm sure that's not the real reason. I doubt that she knows it herself, but it seems like she doesn't like me very much so there's no way for me to find out" he seemed clueless about the reason behind it

"I would hate you too if I was her" his green eyes were looking into his, even if he had on that ridiculous blindfold

"You never told me what happened after I left Jujutsu High. You remained for one more year,right?"

It was true, Nanami was one year ahead of Y/N, but one behind Gojo, so he had one more year to spend in school with Y/N. They never interacted much, but he couldn't keep his eyes closed when he hear her name everywhere he went around the school grounds.

"You really want to chit chat about that girl here?" he raised one of his brows

"Make it short, I want to pay her a visit after" he laughed

Nanami began to tell Gojo everything he knew and heard. It seemed like Y/N's cursed energy started fading away more and more until it vanished from her body, making her a shame for her family and getting herself kicked out of the house. She was stripped off the L/N name and was hosted by Jujutsu High till the end of her last year.

She was in need of money so she did everything she could to get them, Nanami was never the one to listen to the rumours, especially when they were talking so lowly of a young girl, but he had seen it with his own eyes.

"One week before her graduation she went missing, her things were all back in her room, but she was nowhere to be found. It was my first mission, as the faculty suspected it was the work of a high level curse. So naturally I started looking for her along with some other team partners"

It was clear as day that Nanami didn't want to tell his friend that part of the story, but he surely couldn't lie to his face. He explained how he found her in a cheap motel near the city centre. She was laying in bed, naked, taking whatever those nasty business men were doing to her. The eye contact he made at that time showed him that she was no victim, she chose this herself, and rather than screaming for help, her eyes were telling him to piss off, that it was none of his business.

"And then I heard she ran to Osaka and was taken in by Yababa who trained her. I believe she is a cursed assassin, but the only thing she kills are humans that Yababa wants to dispose off. She uses cursed weapons, like that katana she carries with her, but she can't see curses anymore and neither use cursed energy as she has none left" he finished telling

Gojo was surprised, even if he didn't want to seem that way. But one thing made no sense to him, why did she seem to dislike him so much, but he felt like he couldn't ask Nanami that.

"That look it's worth a million words Satoru" Nanami sighed for the 5th time "She loved you and she learned that you used her despise being aware of how she felt. I think she grew to hate you when all the things started going wrong for her, I'm not sure tho. You should ask her if you want to find out more, after all it's her story to tell"

"I understand" was all the man could say
