"Please welcome our new student, his name is Satoru Gojou." Yaga-Sensei steps to the side and we saw a boy with white hair and wearing a pair of black sunglasses, "Why's he wearing sunglasses inside?" Shoko whispers to me, "I dunno, beats me, it's kinda weird." I whisper back, "I wear them to try to block out as much cursed energy and cursed technique I can see with my ability the Six Eyes." We heard Gojou say, we both flinched, Getou laughed at us, "Do you think he's really part of the Gojou family? You know, like one of the three great sorcerer families?" I whisper to Getou, he shrugs, "I am, my family is the Gojou family." Gojou grins, I puffed my cheeks out, "I wasn't asking you! And stop butting into our conversations!" I huffed, "Calm that fiery temper of your Inumaki. You will from now on train with Gojou, saying that Shoko and Getou are a pair, you have been training with me every time we do sparring practice but I think it's time for you to verse someone around your age." Yaga-Sensei says, my jaw dropped, "I don't want to pair up with him, he's so, so... ugh!" I spin on my heel and headed outside, "Yuki~" Shoko calls after me, "Tch." I shoved my hands into my pockets.
I was outside using a kendo sword and slicing a spare dummy, "Yo~" The dummy suddenly was substituted with Gojou, I stopped a fraction before hitting him, "Why'd you do that?" I had an ick mark, "Well I kinda thought you'd actually hit me, looks like you care more than you say." He leans down to my height and puts his nose close to mine, I blushed bright red, "BAKA!" I hit his head with the kendo sword and turn around, whipping my ponytail in his face, "Leave me alone!" I shout. "Itadakimasu." The four of us clapped our hands together, we began to eat dinner, "Yuuki~" I heard a voice in my ear, "It's Inumaki to you." I grumbled and shoved another chopstick of rice into my mouth, "But Yuki's so much cuter, why so cold Yukicchi?" Gojou teases me, I shoved the top of my chopsticks into his nose and pulled them out suddenly, causing him to have an explosive nosebleed, all the kids, first years, second years and third years burst out laughing, "Tch." I stood up and threw my chopsticks into the sink and grabbed a new pair, "That's Yuki alright." "The angel of Jujutsu Tech is always a coin toss away from being the devil." The third years laughed, "Here, so you don't bleed all over my dinner." I chucked a box of tissues to Gojou, "Thank you Yukicchi." He takes out a few tissues and holds his nose, "Geez, I've never seen you act so rash before, even with Getou." Shoko whispered to me, "I can't stand cocky bastards who have their whole life mapped out for them with something as simple as a family name." I finished my dinner, "Thank you." I stood up and grabbed my tray, bringing it over to the sink and washing up, I smiled, small things in life made me happy, when you rinse your dishes and you find a perfect spot in the dishwasher for it, when you take a shower and see all the dirt and grime wash off, when you think of a new way to use your cursed technique, I opened the dishwasher and I saw the last empty spot for my lacquered miso bowl, I smiled, "Perfect." I whispered to myself but there was a gust of wind and within a blink, I saw the spot taken up, "Huh?" I tilted my head, I looked up and saw a boy with white hair and black sunglasses who whistled as he points at the rack, he filled up all his bowls and plates and cutlery with the last sections of the dishwasher, I felt fire burn under me, "BAKA! MORON! MEATHEAD! IDIOT! BRAT! FOUR EYES!" I kicked him, he just laughed, completely unfazed, the entire school sweatdrop at the scene that played out, everyone knew my small nick-knacks and dinnertime was one of them, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!" I threw all my bowls into the sink of water and splashed him, he blinked as the water dripped down his body, everyone held back snickers, he raises his arm and grabs a cup, he scoops up water from the sink and dumps it over my head, everyone was silent, they quickly faced their food and started eating, no longer staring at us, Gojou laughs, "You looks like an adorable wet dog. Arf, arf!" He holds his hands up and lolls his tongue out, I slam my hand under his chin, making him bite his tongue, I walked out without another word, I felt eyes bore into my back but I didn't care.
I was in my room, I finished washing and blow drying my hair, I slipped on a large hoodie and laid down on my bed, I heard a knock on the door, "It's open!" I call out, I heard the door creak open and I saw Gojou standing there, I furrowed my brows, "Sorry I meant it's locked." I turned the other way, "Can we just talk... please..." He asks, I sighed and stood up, I craned my neck up, he was tall, even for a sixteen year old, Gojou would've easily been taller than 180cm while I was only around 166cm, I saw his eyes go down to my bare legs and his face flushed red, "My eyes are up here genius." I slap his cheek lightly, "O-oh, of course." He cleared his throat, "Look, I'm sorry for teasing you, it's just that... I don't know, it's a stupid reason." He covers his eyes in embarrassment, "Just spit it out," I sit back down on my bed, "It's cause you give the cutest reactions. I felt bad after tonight so I asked around what your favourite things were and here." He brings out chocolates, lollies, a box of DVDs and a stuffed bear, I blushed bright red, "W-W-Who said I like those things." I stuttered, "From the get-go, you haven't liked me, is there a reason? Is it cause we're a pair? If you don't want that, we can switch and you can go with either Suguru-san or Ieiri-san." He offers, I look down and shake my head, "No. It's not that..." I murmur, "Then what is it? I promise I won't tease you about it, can you tell me why you hate me so much?" He fiddles with a strand of my hair, "It's the Gojou family..." I look up, tears were pooling in my eyes, his eyes widen, "My mother and father were killed my cursed spirits, by the time your family showed up, they saw the state they were in and didn't even give it a second glace, they said they were good as dead and walked off... that's why I hate the Gojou's so much." I clenched my fists, I felt him pull me into a hug, "Let me go!" I thumped his chest, he kept his grip around me, "I promise, I'm always one call away. If my family's betrayed you once already, I swear on my life I'll protect you from anything and everything that tries to hurt you." He whispers, I felt my walls fall down, "G-Goj-Satoru." I grabbed the fabric on the back of his shirt, "You know, I'm the first sorcerer in my family to be born with the Six Eyes and Limitless in the last hundred years." He says, I look up at him and deadpan, "Was that meant to impress me?" I say monotony, he sweats and averts his eyes, "Why are you like this? Once second I absolutely hate you and the next..." I didn't dare admit you, "You just love me don't you?" He teases, "GET OUT!" I screamed, "Hai, hai, princess." He kisses my forehead and shuts the door behind him, I was a blushing mess, I wiped my eyes dry and I stared at the teddy bear on my bed along with the lollies, chocolate and DVDs, I put one into my TV and pressed play, hugging the bear tight to my chest, as much as I didn't want to say so, his arms around me made me feel so safe, I buried my face into the bear and the faint smell of Satoru was still there, "I hate you." My voice muffled from the bear.
"Do you, Satoru Gojou take Yuki Inumaki to be your lawfully wedded wife?" The priest asks, "I do." He slips the ring on my finger, "So you, Yuki Inumaki take Satoru Gojou to be your lawfully wedded husband." He asks, I pursed my lips, "This is so embarrassing, everyone's watching." I muttered, the preist raised his eyebrow at me, "I do, I do alright. Geez." I huffed, "Even on our wedding day, you're still the same Yuki I fell in love with." Satoru smiles down at me, he was now a towering 190cm while I was just hanging in there at 168cm, I only managed to gain a few extra centimeters but this man skyrocketed, "You may kiss the bride." The preist says, Satoru didn't have his blindfold on and he stared down at me with his blue eyes, "Hey bonehead, he said kiss the bride, you know far too well that I can't reach you." I grumbled and had an ick mark, "Oh what a shame, I guess we're just never going to get properly married then." He shrugs and had a sly grin on his face, "YOU IDIOT! GET DOWN HERE!" I shout, "Nope~ You've got to come up here honey." He points at his lips, "BAKATORU! GET DOWN HERE!" I kick his leg, the priest sweatdrops while all the people who attended our wedding just sat there with a blank stare, 'They're at it again. Old habits die hard.' they were all thinking, then he suddenly swooped down and kissed my lips, everyone cheered and clapped, I blushed bright red, I was so embarrassed, so many people were watching us kiss, I slapped his shoulder to tell him to break apart, he opened one eye and winked, not letting go and cupping my cheek so I couldn't pull away, "Sat-mhph-oru!" I couldn't speak properly with his lips in my mouth.
"You're such a pain you know that?" I crawl onto his bare chest, "I could say the same for you, it took me x amount of years to finally win you over and you still torment me." He wriggles around, "Shut up love." I rest my cheek on him, "You're such a tsundere. When it's just us two, you're so cuddly and loving, why can't you be like this when we're around others? I just wish I could show off my loving wife but all you do is kick me." He teases, "Oh fine then," I shimmy off him and face the other way, "I'm kidding, I'm kidding~" He turns me back around, "That's what I thought." I straddle him and pepper his face, neck and chest with kisses, "I love you, you know that?" I whispered as I buried myself into his neck, "Don't worry, no matter how hard you kick me, I know you do sweetie. You just get flustered." I felt him put his hands on my waist, "I love when you wear my shirts, you look so cute." He smiles, "Oh shush, I never thought I'd take on the family name I hate so much." I felt myself get sleepier, "Don't think of Gojou like that then. Think of the name Gojou as finally being mine." He whispers and faintly draws his fingers between my shoulderblades.
"I love you"
Flashback end
"I'm grateful to you." The curse says, I stare at him, "I don't need your gratitude, I've already received it from lots of others. I have no regrets." I smiled and closed my eyes, he laughed and was about to touch me, then, both of us stopped, the ceiling shattered and Yuuji, Nanami and Satoru jumped in, "Sorry, but you've really pissed me off now." Satoru took his blindfold off and drew his finger across in a line, then the spirit's shoulder was completely sliced, all our eyes widened and the domain expansion shattered and dissipated, "Now! I'll kill you!" Yuuji ran forwards, Nanami, Satoru and I following him, then, the curse changed the shape of his soul once more and expanded, the target was huge but the flow of cursed energy is calm, there are no counters, we can all land an attack for certain, it's our last chance, we don't need tactics, we just need brute strength, Yuuji used his divergent fist and it blew up, "W-Where'd it go?!" He looks around, "Bye-bye!" He slithered into the gutter, "Hold up!" Yuuji runs after it, "That was fun~" He slowly crawls in, Nanami slams his hand into the gutter to try to grab it, "Tch. Ino-kun, the core has escaped into the sewers. Please scour everything from my current location to the southeast. Even you could exorcise I'm right now. Let's pursue him too!" Nanami turns to Yuuji, I ran over to him as he collapsed, "Yuuji!" I held him, the three of us crowded around him as he lost consciousness, "Yuuji!" I shook him but he was fast asleep.
