Ocean eyes | S.Gojo

"Huh?" Satoru asked, a bit taken aback by the question the woman sitting next to him just asked. "You should know, you are always gossiping with her and Mei Mei."

"Ha." She let out a single laugh, making Satoru knit his eyebrows. "Knew you two were on weird terms."

"Can you not?" He whispered, casually eyeing the rest of the sorcerers in the moving van to see if any of them was listening. "I might've fucked up."

"Of course."

"What do you mean of course?"

"Of course, it wasn't her the one fucking things up." She shrugged as the car finally came to a stop, sending a sealed-lip smile before opening the door and exiting, leaving an even more annoyed Satoru behind.

"Hi?"

"God, I was worrying out here!" Misumea panted as she jogged through the city, one hand holding the cell phone against her face and the other wiping the beads of sweat that had formed on her forehead. "Everything ok there?"

"Yes." Megumi answered in a tired tone, and even though the two couldn't see each other, Misumea knew he had rolled his eyes. "Are you ok? You sound weird."

"Oh." She let out before bending down to avoid getting hit by a curse, her free hand forming a blood dagger to stab the ugly monster in the face. "I am... working."

"Are you calling and killing curses at the same time?"

"Maybe."

"Bye, mom. Love you."

"Hey-!" Misumea was about to fight back and tell her son to not hang up, but the sound of the lonely line made her know it was already too late. "That boy..."

She kept jogging around in the city to try and get the most number of curses taken care of, allowing this opportunity to work as a stress relief and to let out all of her bottled feelings through slaying curses.

"Hey." The stoic voice of her blond best friend called her from behind, making her turn around and slow down her pace. "Are you ok?"

"Of course." She smiled a fake smile, sliding her hand up in the air without breaking eye contact to slash a curse that came running their way, sending a strong wave of air filled with curse energy. "You?"

"Been better." He answered before frowning softly, his hand going up to meet her bleeding face, his thumb caressing over the cut from where the blood was dripping to wipe off the ruddy liquid. "You are bleeding."

"Pretty sure I did that myself." She answered while touching the same spot on her face, an honest smile forming on her lips as she felt taken care of by the male.

Her lips parted to ask the male if he had seen her students around the area since she had lost track of them about 15 minutes ago but got suddenly interrupted by a breath-hitching scenery.
About 70 meters away from where the couple of best friends was standing, a gigantic worm-looking curse with big arms was terrorizing a group of young sorcerer's from the school, their screams and shouts making the couple direct their attention to the place they were currently in.

Both Kento and Misumea began jogging to where the commotion was, their pace increasing to a full-on run when their eyes watched how the curse ate one of the youngsters. As they were slowing back their running and finally reaching the place, the one and only Satoru Gojo flew up on the sky while fighting one on one with a guy she hadn't seen before.

"If he's alone, where are Toge and Panda?" She asked in a whisper, her eyes opening wider at the thought of her dear students being out there alone. She swallowed deeply before speaking to herself again but this time louder. "And who the hell is that guy and why hasn't Satoru already finished him?"

"Go." Kento spoke while fixing his glasses over the bridge of his nose, slightly dipping his head down to meet her eyes. "I'll stay."

She gave a firm head nod as an answer before draping her arms around his neck and kissing his cheek for only half of a second before begging to jog away backward. "Take care!"

"I'll see you tonight!" He shouted as he jogged back as well while pointing his finger at her, completely out of his character. "Without a scratch."

"Love you!" She shouted even louder so the male could hear before propulse herself up in the air towards where Satoru was currently fighting, not waiting for an answer from Kento since she already knew he loved her as well, and she also knew he wouldn't voice it out.

She reached the top of the building and walked towards them calmly, her heart beating faster when her gazes meet Satoru's figure, her mind slightly fogging with how hot he looked throwing punches.

"Satoru." Misumea spoke out loud when she was close enough, making the male completely stop his movements and look back with worry, his eyes softening down when they met hers.

"I've been looking for you." He answered while going back to his fight, his voice coming out from his lips as if he was doing nothing and not at all like he was completely destroying his opponent. "How are you?"

"I am good" She answered with a soft frown and a weirded-out smile, holding her arm with a hint of shyness to then mentally shake her head to clear her love thoughts and focus. "Where are Toge and Panda?"

"Sent them-" He began to speak but halted for a second to punch the unknown guy once more and send him flying in the air, crashing against a building. Satoru let out a huff and brushed his hair before turning around and walking towards her. "Sent them to the school."

"Why would you-" Her words were the ones cut this time, his big calloused hands holding her face with worry and softly pulling her closer to his own face, his thumb caressing the single cut that adorned her skin. He knitted his brows in worry, his cerulean eyes no longer covered by the white bandage pouring honest concern.

"You are hurt." He whispered, his eyes finally meeting her awestruck ones. "Who touched you?"

"It was probably me." She whispered back, swearing the whole city could hear the loud thumping of her heart inside her chest. "You don't have to worry about it."

"Mhm." He hummed before caressing her cheek once more, a small smile appearing on his lips before he finally retracted his hands. "We should head back to the school grounds now. I am thinking Suguru went there to get Rika."

"Oh." Her golden eyes opened wide at the just-given information, all thoughts about love quickly disappearing and being replaced by worry. "Let's go!"

"I am going to warp us there."

Her face twisted in dislike, the thought of warping making her whole body tingle in uncomfortableness, not enjoying the ride at all.

"Just." She muttered, face still grimacing. "Quick."

"Sure thing, love."
