"She's ready for you." Shoko said as she opened the door.

  Gojo shot up from his seat after waiting hours to see Y/N after she suddenly collapsed. He ran up, softly moving Ieiri out of the way. "Y/N? What happened?" Gojo asked frantically as he pulled up a chair and sat next to her bed.

  The girl had an IV inserted in her wrist and oxygen on her. She slowly reached her hand out and Satoru of course didn't hesitate to grab it. "W-we need to talk." Y/N whispered. It hurt her to talk since she was having trouble breathing, but it was more important for her to tell him the truth. "Suguru." Y/N said as she tried taking in a full breath. Satoru scooted closer and furrowed his eyebrows, "What? What about him?" He whispered as he rubbed her hands gently with his thumb.

  "Look Satoru, as you know my heart doesn't beat like yours. Geto somehow has access to my heart when he feels its most vulnerable, and is able to toy with it. He can squeeze it, stop it, and over all just hurt it. He can't kill me from far away like this, but if he's able to do even this little damage, it means he's close." Y/N replied, trying not to choke on her words. 

  Gojo's eyes widened as he felt himself fill up with rage. "So..he knows you're with me then." Satoru sighed and threw his head back as he covered his face. Y/N softly grabbed his upper thigh, "Don't hate me Satoru, for not telling you this earlier." She said softly with a small sniffle. Gojo scoffed and leaned in close to the girl. He sighed and rested his hand on top of hers, making her feel a bit better and reassured. "Hey.." He started with his giant smile. "I could never hate you! Come on, we agreed that you need to take your time remember? No need to feel bad Y/N." Gojo replied. Y/N smiled and let out a sigh of relief.

  "That made me feel a lot better, thank you." She smiled. "But there's more than that."

  "Geto gave me many...many more powers. When he brought me back to life, he intended as bringing me back as just a curse with bad intentions and no memories of my past life. Somehow I came back as just myself. To this day we don't know how that happened, but it did. So unknowingly he gave me much stronger powers than a regular sorcerer or curse." Y/N continued.

  She was surprised he was being so calm, but she was glad he didn't hate her. 

  She truly does love him.

  "Oh..well okay. That just makes you much more badass!" Gojo laughed. "So...why didn't you use those powers to hurt Geto or any other curses?" Gojo asked. "I would have. I actually had to hold myself back many times, but if I even touched him in a way he didn't like...he said he would kill you or Megumi." Y/n whispered. Her eyes slowly filled with tears, "I couldn't do anything Satoru. He had me wrapped around his fingers. I was trapped, I'm sorry. I didn't want anything to happen to you and my Megi." Y/N said softly. 

  Gojo stood up as soon as he noticed that she began to cry. He sat on the edge of the bed to comfort her. She sniffled as he gently wiped a tear off of her cheek. "Geto..he forced me to do things I didn't want to do. He made me believe that he loved and cared for me. Although I always loved you Satoru, Suguru manipulated me and gaslighted me every day for years into thinking that what he did for me was in fact love. I was stuck. J-Just thinking about the bad things he made me do makes me sick to my stomach." Y/N cried. She covered her face as she cried. She was embarrassed to cry about this, but mostly ashamed about the bad things she has done. 

  Gojo..understood. He wasn't sure what she meant by the bad things she's done, maybe she hurt people. She had no choice though, and Satoru knew that she would never hurt innocent people but he understood that she had no other choice. She did what she had to do...because she loves him.

  "It's okay, Y/N." Gojo replied softly as he rubbed her head gently. "I know you..I know what kind of person that you are. I don't care what you did in the past. The important thing now is that you're here, and you're safe." He replied. Y/N softy chuckled in embarassment and wiped tears off he face. "This is so stupid, I'm always crying I'm sorry." She sighed. Gojo smiled, "You've always been a cry baby, I'm not surprised." Gojo joked. Y/M let out a small laugh and sniffled once more. "I love you...so damn much, Satoru." Y/N said softly as she out her small hand on his face. He smiled, "I love you too.. always and forever..."

  "Y/N?" The door swung open.

  "Is everything okay? Sorry to interrupt, I got here as fast as I could." Kento Nanami said as he ran in. 

  Gojo scoffed, "She's fine. She was just telling me how much she loves me." Gojo mocked. "I'm not here to fight Satoru, I'm just checking on Y/N." Nanami replied in a monotone voice. Y/N rolled her eyes and sighed. "I'm okay now, thank you for coming to check on me." Y/N said with a soft smile. "Of course. Yuji called me crying saying that Satoru told him you were hurt and he really wanted to see you, but I told him to wait until tomorrow." Kento said. 

  Y/N chuckled, "Aw my Yuji." She smiled. "Sooo I figured I would come in check on you..for Itadori."Kento said nervously. Gojo rolled his eyes and plopped down on his chair. It made him angry and overall jealous that Y/N even still keeps in contact with him, but he figures that if it truly makes her happy, then so be it.
