" the strong urge to avoid something or someone
——— ❝ 𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗽
Gojo winced, seeing his maid in the door way. " I totally forgot I hired cleaners today" Gojo let go of you, scratching his head
" oh! Sorry Gojo. It appears I came at a bad time" the maid was flustered, immediately bowing to avoid your gaze
" yeah..don't worry about it" Gojo avoided your glare. His eyes showed frustration
" excuse me" the maid quickly closed the doors
You slam your head in frustration. Not only were you flustered, you were embarrassed. 'what was that for?' Was what you wanted to ask
Gojo took a deep breath and looked at you with a smile, " thank you for delivering my jacket"
" it's no problem, I'll just go!" You awkwardly part, sprinting to the door
Gojo was about to open his mouth to stop you from going but you slammed the door before he could
Gojo stood there, thinking of his actions by cupping his face, " fuck! I'm an idiot.." Gojo massaged his head, kicking a random thing on the floor in frustration
His hands cupped his heart. It was that sensation he had many times before...was this love or admiration?
' what have you done to me [y/n]?' Gojo thought
——— LATER
You laid on your bed with a hand resting on your forehead. All you did was reflect on previous events. Why did Gojo do that? What was he trying to prove? Theres no way you could like him
'His no better than Yamaji.'Was what you tried to convince yourself
You sighed and twisted in your bed, grabbing the pillow tightly. Does he do this to everyone? Confuse them?
You groaned and turned again. How could you sleep after that?
Your mind replayed to Gojo's lips and then his bare chest. You shatter your thoughts with the voice in your head. There was no way you could face him again
Not after that. You sprung up on your bed, touching your necklace for comfort. You thought of your parents who always insisted on the ideas of marriage. You wondered what your parents would say
"what do I do now?" You called out softly, hoping for some response from them.
——— FEW DAYS LATER
" oh my god" Utahime huffed, pulling herself up the long stairs. " I'll never get use to this" you pick yourself up
" I can't wait to eat something" Utahime's mouth watered as she imagined the food. You laugh at her remark
" it's still morning" you point out
You squint when the sun shines it's ray on you . " almost there" Utahime pointed out
You saw two people in the distance, not to far from you. They were very familiar and your mood dropped
It was Gojo and Geto and they were walking slowly as if they had all the time in the world.
There was no way you could walk the pace you did, you knew Geto would call out for you and then you would have to face Gojo
For the past days you had been trying to avoid Gojo to the best of your ability.
it didn't help he was friends with Shoko, or that he seemed to be around every corner you went
It was frustrating because every time you looked at him, your mind drifted elsewhere. Was it obvious that you were avoiding him?
You curse under your breath, Utahime already too close to them for comfort . " Utahime let's go" you ran up, grabbing her wrist
" hey! what-" Utahime was instantly dragged up the stairs as you ran as fast as you could
The gush of wind following after you. It didn't go I notice to Geto. He saw you run up so fast, " she's in a rush" Geto chuckled
Gojo saw how quickly you were out of sight, his lips forming a small frown
——— LATER
" as I was saying Shoko, this book is the best" you grab the book from the shelf . " okay I'll keep that in mind" Shoko stayed still, watching you
" no worries...is class starting soon?" You check your phone after spending a lot of time in the library . " shouldn't be. Just training" Shoko added
" oh. Really? I need to pick up some equipment" you pick up your bag
" okay, remember the party tonight" Shoko was your daily reminder. " oh that.." you remember
" what if I don't go?" You wanted the night to yourself. Shoko looked shocked, " why? I mean the past days you have looked...extremely stressed" Shoko emphasised
" have I? Was it obvious" you laugh nervously
" yeah.." Shoko agreed as if it wasn't obvious enough. " the party would be a good breather for you" Shoko tried to relax you
" you sure..?" You were skeptical, remembering the last time you drank. " I'm sure" Shoko nodded, she noticed your anxious expression and changed her words
" I mean you don't have to drink, you can still have a fun time" Shoko ruled. " I guess you are right...maybe I'll show up for a few hours" you made up your mind
Shoko's lips curled into a small smile, "l'll look forward to seeing you there" she waved. " it's a maybe" you fix Shoko's sentence
You grinned to yourself and walk outside the library. You roam through the halls and when you reached downstairs, you noticed there was a crowd of people surrounding a specific area
They seemed to be hovering over two people with their phones. Such a commotion caught your eye. You take a look out of curiosity.
Moving through the crowd, your eyes land on Gojo ( to your surprise) with a girl you've never met before
" Satoru! Let's date" the girl simply put it, there was no formalities at all. The crowd seemed to cheer her on but for you, for some reason you felt mortified
Your foot took a step back, you felt a deep pit build in your stomach. Gojo chuckled before his lips formed an uneasy smile
You couldn't watch anymore, you felt an intense emotion that disturbed your peace of mind. You quickly leave the crowd, not waiting around to hear his response
Just seeing that confession provoked jealousy from you. You didn't know why but it hurt like a bitch
——— THAT NIGHT
You check your mirror one last time after spending the night just being indecisive.
You thank your taxi driver. Closing the car door you saw Utahime waiting for you
" [y/n]! I thought you would never show up!" Utahime's eyes glowed at seeing you, she instantly hugged you
" some things came up. was I that late?" You crack a smile, acting like you weren't sulking earlier
" well yeah, Shoko already headed in! Come" Utahime grabbed your wrist before you could have any second thoughts
Utahime opened the door to the club. It was a relatively small place with every senior from ju-jitsu high there. You were almost blinded with the disco lights
" you might have to speak loudly to me" Utahime's tone was loud so you could hear her over the music. " yeah" you nod, following her around
" [y/n]!" Shoko was the second person to see you
" hello Shoko" you greet. " i thought you'll never come!" Shoko's voice sounded like a shout. " that's what I said!" Utahime laughed to Shoko's question
" come sit!" Shoko opened a spot for you. You sat down, your legs awkwardly squashed because you weren't familiar with the place
" water? Or this?" Shoko offered you two options
" what's this exactly?" You point at the other unknown liquid Shoko held. " alcohol of course" Shoko replied
You were about to refuse her offer and take the cup of water but in the mere distance you saw Yamaji. Seeing him just made your blood boil. Of course he brought his date
" I'll take it" you made your mind after glancing back to Shoko, taking the alcohol and drinking it
" damn? What made you change your mind so fast" Utahime commented, shocked from your aggressiveness
" just give me another." You beckoned. Shoko was impressed and poured you another drink. " don't drink to much" she almost laughed
" we still have to dance and meet more people" Utahime held your arm
" yeah yeah" you agree, gulping another drink.
——— LATER
You stare at the empty glass in your hands. Shoko and Utahime had went to the dance floor but you didn't. You felt tired after dancing for a while so you came back to your table for more drinks
You felt heated, eyeing the glass down. Just seeing everyone brought so many emotions to you.
You take a deep breath in and pour yourself another glass
You think for a moment, knowing you'll regret your actions the morning after but you just didn't seem to care at all
you put the glass to your lips but it didn't touch your lips. You were annoyed and it showed on your face. You looked at the person who took the drink off your hands
" hey" you knew Gojo's classic tone. He gave you a smirk while his hands guided the drink out of your sight
' great...'
