Chapter Two: Silk Flower

"Y/n-san, come with me." was the first thing Ijichi told you the next morning. You were barely finished with your breakfast, and gave your newly acquired classmates an apologetic smile. Nodding, you stood up and followed him through the campus into another small building. He left you outside a simplistic door without a word. It frustrated you that you weren't given an explanation as to how things worked around here yet. Although, the reason you were outside this wooden door was probably to find out.

A weak knock was all that was needed before a muffled, "Come in." was heard from the other side. You opened the door, to come face to face with a blond man, in a cream colored business suit. He wore green sunglasses made out of metal framing. He scanned you up and down, before gesturing for you to take a seat. Throughout this interaction, he did not smile a single time.

After you had situated yourself on the sofa, he introduced himself. "My name is Nanami Kento, and I am a grade one sorceror here at the school. Since Gojo was unable to be here and help you out, I am here to help you." Making eye contact as he vowed to help you, you blushed before responding,

"My name is y/n. Thank you for coming here today, I appreciate someone wanting to help me." You bowed your head slightly to show respect to your superior as well as to hide the slight blush that had appeared on your face. Nanami-sensei was a handsome man, with sharp cheekbones and a slender body. You were unsure of how well you were going to be able to focus. "Well, then. Let's get started."

Time went by fast, and suddenly it was already noon. Nanami had explained to you what type of school you were at, the Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School. He had asked how much you knew about curses, and gave you some small books which contained the same information he told you in case you'd forget. He was a man who went straight to the point, and you tried listening as well as you could, asking a few questions here and there.

"It seems as if it's time to eat lunch. Y/n-san, do you want to join me for lunch?" The question caught you off guard, since he asked it while he was packing up his things. He looked at you from the corner of his eye, watching your response closely. You nodded, smiling slightly.

"Yes, please. Thank you for everything." He turned his head with a slight smile on his face.

"Don't worry, y/n-san. You did well today." The praise meant a lot to you coming from him, and you turned your head away slightly. Your nerves were on high alert, and his compliment made your heart skip a beat. Suddenly, you were overly aware of his presence.

"So, Nanami. Why are you here?" Curiosity got the best of you and you really wanted to know why he was here today.

"First, I worked as a jujutsu sorcerer, until I realized it was shit. So, I started working in an office, which made me realize office work is even more shit. Therefore, I started working somewhere more fitting for me." His explanation almost made you choke on your food, and you started coughing uncontrollably. Gaining eye contact with him, you saw the corners of his eyes were crinkled showing his smile. Something about this man was so captivating and attracting, and his way of talking entertained you. Before you had finished coughing, you started laughing.

"Nanami-sensei, you are such a special person! I love it." Scratching the back of his head, he took his glasses off.

"I appreciate it, y/n-san. You're not too bad, yourself." His eye contact with you was almost as intense as when you had seen Gojo's eyes. You smiled a bright smile, glad you had done something right. Praise was something you lived for, making you understand what you did that was right and what was wrong.

"Be careful, though. You don't want to choke." The man told you almost teasingly even though his face never betrayed his true intentions.

After lunch, it was time for you to meet up with your classmates. This was the first time you were going to hear about their powers and see their strengths. You were certainly interested, since Nanami didn't go into detail about your powers and others' powers. Hopping down the stairs to the giant football field, you waved your hands as you saw them. They all looked up at you and greeted you.
