In Another Life (Gojo x Reader)

thirteen

  Y/N's eyes filled with tears as she ran up to hug her mother. Y/N's mother cried into her daughter's embrace, finally seeing her again after all these years. "Mommy!" Y/N cried as she hugged her even tighter. Y/N's mom looked up at Satoru, and gave him a warm smile. "Thank. you." She mouthed to her daughters lover. It brought tears into Gojo's eyes seeing the girl he loved be so happy. 

  "Y/N!!" Y/N's older brother ran up to her and picked her up. "Kyo!!" She cried as she hugged him back. "Oh how I missed you little sister!" He cried, not breaking the hug. He set her down as Gojo walked up to her and put a reassuring hand on her lower back. She looked up at him with her wet, teary eyes. "Satoru." She whispered as she jumped up to hug him. "This is the best surprise ever, thank you." She said softly, kissing this cheek. He smiled back at her and kissed the top of her head. 

  "H-How did you guys know I'm actually alive?" Y/N asked. "Satoru here, gave us a call a couple days ago letting us know everything that had happened." Y/N's mom replied with a soft smile, caressing her daughters face. "Considering Gojo being Gojo, he was very sweet about it. Of course we cried and cried knowing you were alive, but Gojo here actually reassured us and said to take some time for ourselves, and then we eventually planned this trip!" Kyo said as he wiped some tears from his face. 

  Y/N looked up at Gojo and cupped his cheek with her hand, making him smile.  

  "It's so nice to see you two together again. I always knew you two would eventually confess your love to each other and marry!" Y/N's mom said with a huge smile. Y/N's eyes widened, "Mom, I-" "Ugh finally!!" Kyo screamed. "I was getting tired of hearing Y/N whine about how much she wanted Satoru to marry h-" "OKAYYY" Y/N interrupted. "Enough of that!" Y/N added. "I'm so happy to be here with you guys! Mom, knowing you I know you made some food, so let's eat!

  "Whoa? Sukuna's vessel?" Kyo asked. "He must be so scary to live with though?" Mrs. L/N added. Gojo and Y/N laughed. "Yuji? Absolutely not! It's like living with a little puppy! Y/N has grown quite the liking to him actually" He added. Y/n swallowed her food and let out a big smile. "Yes! I hope I can bring him here soon, you guys would love him!" 

  Satoru stared at Y/n as she talked and talked about all of the things she loved and was so passionate about. The ways her lips would curl up in a smile when someone said something funny was so adorable to him. He especially loved the way she was 100% herself around her family. She was so energetic and funny, she was honestly the definition of perfect to him. 

  "I just wanna put a baby in her." Gojo thought to himself. 

  "So Satoru, how is being a teacher?" Kyo asked. "Oh I love it, the kids this year are super talented, and now that Y/N is going to teach along with me I-" "She what?!" Y/N mother asked in surprise. Y/N and Satoru gave each other a quick glance before answering. "Mom. Kyo. I am officially a jujutsu teacher!" Y/N said with a big smile. "Oh that's wonderful, but..Suguru? Won't he be able to find you easily?" Y/N's mother asked. "She's right, that sounds kind of dangerous." Kyo added with a concerned tone. Y/N chuckled, "I'll be fine! The school has many barriers that keep out certain curses." Y/N replied. 

  "I would also be there to protect her, along with the staff and of course the students. Trust me when I say no one is getting near Y/N." Satoru added with a warm smile. Y/N's mom smiled and put a hand on Gojo's shoulder. "Thank you for always for protecting my daughter. We love you just as much as she does." She said kindly. Y/N quietly choked on her drink before laughing. "Mom, stop." Y/N laughed. "What? Your father always thought you would marry Kento, but I always knew you and your Satoru were soulmates." Y/N's mom smiled.

  Y/N's smile slowly faded.

  "How is he?" Y/N asked softly. Gojo sighed and gave her a reassuring tap on her back. 

Father is fine. We've only seen him a couple of times here and there, and he looks perfectly good to me" Kyo replied as he chewed on his food. The atmosphere had gotten pretty awkward now with the topic of Y/N's father being talked about. 

   Y/N was never close to her father. She of course loved him dearly. Y/N, Kyo and their mother all have been trained on jujutsu. Y/N's father had grown jealous throughout the years of how talented the rest of their family was. He felt ashamed, embarrassed, and mostly left out because of the powers the rest of their family held. Y/N on the other hand didn't care wether he could see curses, or practice jujutsu or not. All she wanted was to spend time with him like regular fathers and daughters do. She and Kyo loved him regardless, but that wasn't enough for him.                                                                                         Once he found out Y/N had been accepted into Jujutsu Tech, instead of celebrating and congratulating his daughter, he lost it and took out all his anger on her mom. Thank goodness, Kyo was home so he fought back. He left home after that and never came back. The talking between him and Y/N turned into once a day, to once a week, to once a month, and eventually all communication was lost.   

  "Good, good." Y/N replied as she took a sip of her water. "Now, tell us about your time being gone, Y/N." Kyo said with a soft smile, obviously trying to change the subject.

  "Thank you mom, please visit us soon." Y/N said as she hugged her mom tightly. "Bye Kyo, you visit too, Nanami probably wants to see you." Y/N said as she waved at her mother and brother goodbye. "For sure! Soon!" Her mother yelled back as Y/N and Satoru got into their cars.

  They waved good bye one last time before heading off. 

  "Thank you again Satoru, I had a blast." Y/N said softly. Gojo took his hand and caressed her chin. "Of course, I know how much your mom and brother mean to you." He replied with a warm smile. 

  It's so hard for Y/N not to kiss him right now. It sucks that things are so messed up right now, that they can't be together comfortably. It made her so angry with Suguru. She wants to kill him once and for all, but she needs to wait for now.

  She grabbed his hand as he looked down at her. "Yes, Y/N?" He asked. 

  "I'm craving mochi can we get some pleassee?" Y/N whined as she leaned on his shoulder. Gojo chuckled, "Of course. There's a grocery store right here, we'll get some and take it home with us." Gojo agreed. He then pulled up to the local grocery store and parked.

  Gojo grabbed Y/N's hands as they walked, making Y/N feel safe. They walked in and headed straight into the aisles. Gojo walked around looking for his favorite mango mochi, while Y/N looked for her strawberry mochi. 

  Y/N grabbed a box and smiled. It remained her so much of her childhood. 

  Y/N's thoughts were then interrupted by a small child bumping into her legs. "Oh, hello." Y/N said in a surprised tone. "Hi." The little girl said shyly. Y/N smiled and kneeled down to talk to the child.  "Are you lost my love?" Y/N asked as she caressed the small girl's hair. The girl shyly nodded as she played with her fingers. "No problem! I'll help you find your mommy or daddy in no time!" She said with a smile. Y/N then stood up and grabbed the young girls hand. 

  Gojo turned back laughed. "You kidnaping little girls now? If you want one so bad I'll just help you make now." Gojo said while Y/N and the girl walked up to him at the cash register. Y/N rolled her eyes, "She went up to me saying she's lost. We're gonna help her find her parents." YN smiled. Gojo chuckled, "Okay." He said as he looked down at the little girl. "You know, she kinda looks like you. If we cant find her mom we can just take her and say we had a baby!" Gojo said. Y/N laughed, "I hate you."

  "Misako!" A voice yelled. 

  "Daddy!" The young girl then let go of Y/N's hand and ran off to a strange man. Gojo thanked the cashier and grabbed Y/N's hand before they walked up to the man and young girl. Y/N giggled, "I'm sorry! Your daughter seemed to be lost so I thought I'd stay with her until she found you." Y/N replied with a smile. "Thank you so much!" The man said as he stood up, carrying the child. 

  Y/N's heart dropped as soon as she made eye contact with the strange man, who ends up, isn't so strange. Gojo soon realized who he was. "Y-Y/N?" The man asked. Y/N froze as she stared at him. She stared at the child and back at the man.

  

   "Father."
