You'll Never Walk Alone

7

"Master, I'm sorry..."

You freaked out as Sukuna suddenly laid his head at the crook of your neck and pinned your hands above your head. You felt his hot breath ghosting over your collarbone while your face burned red. You were literally holding in your breath as if you didn't want to get caught by a murderer in your house. You had no clue what was going on. All you wanted was Yuji to take over yet you were curious as to why he's calling you master and apologizing.

Kameko defeated Sukuna and that's all we know about her. We know nothing about Kameko's past besides her creating a big impact on the jujutsu society.

You mentally gulped, trying to brace yourself for the question you had bubbling in your throat. You really were going to ask him why he called you master. If he wasn't going to hurt you, you believed he might answer your question.

Mustering your wavering courage, you pulled yourself together as you breathed shakily in his ear. "W-why am I your master?" You prayed he gave you an answer. "I don't even have any history with you. I was born 16 years ago. You're blindly mistaken."

"You don't have history with me, but your face does." Sukuna pulled back and stared at you with his glossy red eyes. You couldn't tell what he was feeling and you were afraid to know too. Being stuck in this situation with Sukuna scared you because you didn't do anything. It was brought upon you. "I've waited thousands of years for your return, master. The last thing you said to me was that you hated the monster I've become, but I know those words were coaxed in lies because you love me." His face zoomed closer to yours as the tips of both of your noses touched.

Your heart was beating like crazy. Every thump grew louder in your chest and ears while your brain fried. You didn't know how to react to Sukuna's closeness nor did you know what to say. This was too bizarre to handle under your confused state.

So he's talking about Kameko... What kind of a relationship did they have if it's not enemies? You pondered but kept it to yourself.

"Even if you're her descendant, you will never be Kameko. Seeing you feels like you're mocking her from her power to her face... But I can't bring myself to kill you because my heart aches for her!"

You were terrified. Sukuna could kill you in any second because he supposedly hates you but doesn't. You weren't too sure what to do or say. You didn't want to be dead meat. Hot tears filled behind your waterline. You absolutely didn't want to die yet. You have so much to do in this world but you're limited because of your fate and duty to this world. Of course you wouldn't mind seeing your parents on the other side, but it's not the right time and you couldn't leave your grandma behind either. She's supposed to go before you, not after you. If you knew you might possibly die by the hands of Ryomen Sukuna, you would've changed your whole life so you wouldn't regret anything. You wondered if your grandma predicted this too by using her clairvoyant eyes? If that was the case, she should've given you a heads up.

As your eyes couldn't contain your petrified tears, it rolled out from the ends of your eyes, catching Sukuna's attention. He pulled back from you to fully see your face and with one hand, he slowly wiped your tears away and licked it off his fingers. His pink tongue started from the base of his finger and up to the tip of it, keeping eye contact with you.

Your cheeks and ears were turning really red. Why in the world is he doing that? I'm scared but also embarrassed. What am I supposed to feel under this circumstance?? Is he going to kill me? Spare me? He's not making it clear. Come on, Yuji!! Come back!!

You knew if you were as cocky as Gojo, you wouldn't mind going against Sukuna and asking Yuji to come back, but... your mind was drowning in fear. It was sinking at the bottom of the ocean. It lacked oxygen and the will to bring yourself back up and together. The presence of Sukuna was on a different level.
