Start from the beginning
                                    

" you remembered" Gojo chuckles to you. You shut your lips, realising you had just exposed yourself. " forget I said anything" you shy away, eyes glued to the road

" steady now" you lay the faint man on his couch. " careful!" You lecture, seeing the man trip over the carpet

" sorry" Gojo slurs. " it's okay" you take a deep breath, hands travelling to the man's forehead. " I hope you don't get sick, you weren't wearing a jacket" you cooed, considering it was winter

" I'm the strongest..I'll be fine" Gojo turned his head.

You slumped beside the man. " do you want me to stay or leave" you gave an option

Although the silence was awkward and the tension was high, Gojo wanted you to stay so badly. " please don't leave [y/n]" he quietly begged

You found yourself smiling at his words. " I shouldn't have asked" you stand up

Gojo sits up upon seeing you walk away despite him asking you to stay, " where are you going?" Gojo's tone seemed frantic as he grasped your wrist

" ..where else? To get you some water" you pointed to the kitchen. Gojo realised his mistake and let your hand go

" I see. Sorry" he apologised again

You chuckle and quickly made him a glass of water. By the time you managed to get a drink you realised Gojo had fallen asleep

" I can't believe it" you let out an airy laugh, placing the water on the glass table. You found yourself squatting while observing the man's features

He was still so beautiful.

You suppress any aching sensation in your chest, before lightly removing his glasses. Gojo's chest moved up and down peacefully indicating he was definitely knocked out

Standing up to wash your face ,  you heard footsteps travel down the stairs. " Gojo?" A boy lazily rubbed his eyes

" his asleep" you notify, seeing the familiar boy named Megumi. " is that so...he has been drinking a lot lately." Megumi whispered, looking at Gojo fast asleep. Megumi looked back at you, keeping a safe distance

" I'm one of Gojo's....I'm his..." it was funny, you struggled to find the words to describe your relationship with him

" his friend" you make up. Megumi loosened up a little, rubbing his neck.

You point at the boy, taking the opportunity, " are you—- his kid?" You dreaded the word. There is a light blush on Megumi's cheek, merely from embarrassment

" is that what it looks like...he just took me in when I was a kid, that's all" Megumi occupied himself by looking everywhere but you

" oh. Oh. That's..that's good" you felt relief wash over you. For some reason that fact made you feel better

Megumi suspected there was more to you and Gojo than meets the eye but he could only keep his mouth shut. For now.

" are you staying? Guest bedroom is upstairs" Megumi offered, " i know, I'll go up soon, thank you" you expressed your gratitude
