Gojo ended up walking me back to my dorm room. Well, after Yaga yelled at both of us for being late. I tried to tell Gojo that he didn't have to walk me all the way back to my room but he kept on insisting.
As we were walking through the halls I sigh, "did we really have to take Yuji out for that extracurricular activity?"
"Whaaa??? Of course did you not see everything that happened?! I got to teach him so much!" Cried Gojo.
"I know, I just really hate getting yelled at by Yaga," I whined.
"So, did that cursed spirit scare you?" asked Gojo.
"Huh? No way!" I protest.
"You sure about that? You were holding onto my arm pretty tightly," he teased.
"That was only because you told us to stay close to you!" I try to argue.
"It's okay if you were. I am the strongest. So I wouldn't have let anything happened to you," assured Gojo.
I stopped walking and so did he. I crossed my arms and huff in annoyance. "I know that!"
Gojo leaned down to my face level with a smirk and with his hands tucked into his pocket. "Awww come on now, don't be that way. It was adorable having you hold onto me," he teased.
I groan, "You're seriously embarrassing me right now." I couldn't stand to look him in the eyes when he says things like that to me.
We continue walking until we reach my room and we're standing outside my door.
"Why do you still stay in the dorms (y/n)-san?" asked Gojo.
I looked at him. "Well, I guess I don't see the point in having my own place since I'm never around for long."
"Hmmm, I see" he says with while placing his thumb on his chin as though he is still thinking.
"What made you want to ask?" I say.
"Well, I was just thinking about how nice it would be if you were to actually stay here in Tokyo. You know, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy to have you around again," he said.
I kept my gaze on him. What was he trying to say? Does he want me to stay to be close to him? Ugh don't be silly it might be to stay and help teach the students. But still, I couldn't look away from him as I held my hands to my chest.
"Hey, you should come meet the first-year's tomorrow!" Gojo yelled out excitedly.
I guess it's just to help with teaching the other students. "Ah yes. That would be nice," I finally say while trying to smile.
"Then it's settled!" Declared Gojo. "I'll introduce you to them tomorrow morning!"
I chuckle at his excitement. "Okay, I'll see you tomorrow sensei."
He patted my head before saying, "get plenty of rest (y/n)." I close my eyes as I could feel myself melting under his hand. "Goodnight," he said as his hand left my hair.
I smile, "Goodnight Gojo-sensei."
I head into my room and let out a huge sigh. I couldn't help but feel so happy to be around Gojo Satoru again. I know that he was my teacher at one point but I can't help the way I feel for him.
I went ahead to get the bath ready. While the water is running I grab my suitcase and begin unpacking the rest of my things. As I finished unpacking I grab a towel and head into the bath.
I sat in the hot water and I let my thoughts run through my head. I couldn't help but think about how I've never been in a relationship before. I mean- I couldn't, really. The life of a jujutsu sorcerer isn't easy. There's so much uncertainty, we practically have to accept that we could die at any moment. There are so many negative emotions that come from loving someone. Even Gojo stated before that love is the most twisted curse of all.
I finish up with my bath and grab my towel. I continue with my night routine and change into my pajamas. As I try to sleep I continue thinking about Gojo. I finally conclude to myself before falling asleep that there isn't any harm in liking him, so I'll just try to enjoy the time I'll have with him while I'm here.
_______________________________________
The next morning I wake up and get ready to meet the first year's. Just as I finished getting ready I hear a loud knock at the door and then Gojo yelling, "(Y/n)- san I'm here!!"
I quickly finish up to answer the door. As I'm walking there I suddenly bumped into Gojo. He seriously warped into my room?
Instinctively, I had my hands up on his chest. I slowly look up at Gojo to see he was already looking down at me, smiling. My face began to get hot from embarrassment and I quickly take a step back.
Annoyed I say, "Couldn't you have waited a couple more seconds for me to open the door?"
"Awww did I make you upset?" Whined Gojo. "Come on, I just couldn't wait to see you."
I walked past him and out the door while saying, "let's just get going already!" He follows me out the door while laughing to himself.
_______________________________________
We get to the track field where all the first and second years training. As we walk up closer gojo announces, "everyone I have a special announcement! (Y/n)-san is back! She'll be helping me to teach you all! Isn't that exciting!"
I roll my eyes at gojo. He just has to make these huge introductions. "Hello, My name is Sasaki (y/n) and I look forward to working with you students."
"It's been a while since we've last seen you," said Zen'in Maki. She typically wears her hair in a ponytail and has bangs across her forhead. She's a cursed tool user due to not being able to produce her own cursed energy.
"Kelp!" Said Inumaki Toge excitedly. He is a cursed speech user. He uses only rice ball ingredients to prevent cursing others with his technique.
I smile at the second-years, "Yes it's been about a year now since I've last been to the school. I'm assuming Okkotsu is still away? I was hoping to see him too."
"That's right. He won't be participating in the exchange event," responded Panda. He's a Panda.
Okkotsu Yuta is the fourth second-year and is a special-grade sorcerer. I believe he's working overseas and that's why he's not present.
I looked over to the first year's when I recognized Fushiguro Megumi.
"Awwww Gojo-sensei didn't mention that you were already a first year!" I cry out.
"It's nice to see you again (y/n)-san," Megumi said.
"It must be nice to have Gojo-sensei as your teacher now since you know him so well, right?" I ask.
"Yeah Megumi-kun! Aren't you a lucky one," chimed Gojo as he slung his arm around him. Megumi seemed to be pretty annoyed with Gojo.
"Hey how do you know her already," demanded the other student. Another girl. She has light brown hair.
"Oh, I've known Megumi since I was a third-year." I say. "what's your name?"
"I'm Kugisaki Nobara. It's nice to have another girl with us. Oh, we could go shopping together. I need a new track suit!"
I laughed. "Of course! We'll have to plan it out some time. We have a meeting to attend to soon."
"Yeah we should get going now," said Gojo
"Goodbye everyone, I'll see you all later!" I say as I wave to them.
_______________________________________
Gojo needed to speak with Gakugangi Yoshinobu, the principle from the sister school in Kyoto. He also happens to be one of the higher ups.
We were walking down the hallway when I say, "Gojo-sensei, I thought this meeting was supposed to be with Yaga too."
"Oh yeah, I got Ijichi to give Yaga a false schedule. He'll be coming later," he explained.
"Uh..huh..did Ijichi-san agree to this or did you force him?" I ask.
"I didn't have to force him! What do you think I am?!" He yelled out.
I let out a sigh. I'll probably have to apologize to Ijichi on Gojo's behalf.
We reached the room where our meeting is held. "Yaga won't be coming for a while," announced Gojo as we walked into the room.
Principle Gakugangi was already seated and there was a girl with light blue hair standing by the door.
"Oh?" said Gakugangi as he looked up at us.
Gojo sat back on the couch with his legs crossed and I take a seat right next to him. "He was given a false schedule. Thank you for the other day principle Gakugangi."
"Oh? What other day would that be?" The old man asked.
"Don't play dumb with me old man. I'm referring to the case with Itadori Yuji. As head of the conservatives you were involved too correct?" accused Gojo.
"My goodness youth these days..don't you know how to be polite?" Responded Gakugangi.
"Don't try to avoid the question! We both know that you were involved with Yuji Itadori's death. For that, we do not owe you any respect," I snapped back at to Gakugangi.
Suddenly the young girl spoke up. "Hey your conduct is problematic. I'll be reporting you to the relevant authorities."
I roll my eyes at her as I'm not really bothered by her threats.
"Feel free. We don't plan to chat very long," said Gojo carelessly. "Last night we were attacked by two unregistered special grade cursed spirits," stated Gojo to the principle.
"Oh that's unfortunate," says Gakugangi while pretending to act concerned.
"Don't get me wrong here. To me it was about like being coerced into taking a survey in the city. The two cursed spirit's were capable of communication and they probably have allies that are just as strong. It's not just our enemies either, Hakari, Okkotsu, and your Todo. The level of our students have risen drastically in recent years, as well. Then there was last year's incident with Geto Sugaru and now with the appearance of Sukuna's vessel," explained Gojo.
"What are you trying to say?" Asked Gakugangi angrily.
"The wave of power you guys have been trying to hold back with your pointless status and traditions has grown bigger than you can handle and is now descending upon us. You won't be able to measure the coming age with the classification of special-grade," responded Gojo.
"And if you think ill be the only one who'll be fighting back you're going to get hurt old man," threatened Gojo.
"I think you're getting a bit out of line" Gakugangi says angrily through gritted teeth.
"Oh scary! Well, that's all I wanted to say. We'll be going now," Gojo said as we both walked out of the room. Suddenly Gojo popped back into the room and said, "Oh principle Yaga will be coming in about two hours! Later!"
After we walked out of the room I ask, "you decided to make Gakugangi wait two hours for Yaga?"
Gojo laughed, "yeah he's old he doesn't have much going on anyways. Why? Are you afraid he's gonna die before Yaga shows up?"
"Sensei!" I looked around to make sure no one was around. I started giggling, "You can't just say things like that!"
Gojo began to laugh with me. I can't stand the hire ups so I guess there's no point in making things easy for them.
All of a sudden I hear what sounds like someone running towards us from behind. We both turn to see that it's the girl with the blue hair. Great, I wonder what she wants now.
"Excuse me Gojo-san, could I get a picture with you?" she asked while trying to catch her breath.
"Oh sure thing," Gojo said.
I guess she's a fan of Gojo. I stand there waiting for them to finish taking pictures. I try not to stare directly at them. I can't help but think I never really taken any pictures with Gojo.
When they finished the girl bowed and thanked Gojo.
As we began walking together I start to say, "So....looks like you got a fan."
"Who wouldn't be a fan of Gojo Satoru?!" He responded.
I roll my eyes but I couldn't help but continue smiling.
"I think I should go train Yuji. It seems the second-years can handle training the first-years."
"Of course they are my students after all," he says.
"Stop acting so full of yourself," I snapped at him.
Gojo laughed, "Well I'll join you two later. I have a couple of other things I need to get done."
