Megumi's Flower ❀ | ɢᴏꜰᴜꜱʜɪ

I was in my room. The lights were turned off, aside from the lamp on my night stand that I used as a reading light. I buried my face in my pillow, mortified at what happened that time. 

I saw him half-naked. And then he laughed at me. And then I ran away. 

This is it. I'm leaving this house. Living here was a mistake. I'm taking Tsumiki and we are running far, far away and never ever coming back.

Oh wait, actually Tsumiki wouldn't want to leave would she? Since she and Gojo are already 'close'. Somehow, that disgusts me. 

I heard a knocking on my door. "Yeah, what is it? If this is about using me so you can practice braiding hair, I already told you that you should practice on your dolls instead!" I yelled.

But the person who entered the room wasn't Tsumiki. It was Gojo. 

"I- What are you doing here?" I asked him, feeling my face get a little pink, remembering the sight of him wearing only a towel. This time, thankfully, he was fully clothed.

"I was going to ask you if you wanted to watch a movie with me and Tsumiki. She told me that no matter how many times she asked you, you always said no, so I thought I should ask you myself." He said.

I looked away from him. "No. I'm not interested." I replied.

Gojo sighed. "Geez, you're always so cold to me, Megumi-chan. What did I do for you to become so mean? I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong."

My eyes stayed fixated near the ground. "You're just creepy. And ugly. And weird." I insulted him. "And you already have Tsumiki and you have a lot of fun with her so I don't see why you need me around." 

He took a few steps forward and closed the door behind him. "Hmm is that it? Because I'm always hanging out with Tsumiki. Are you by any chance...jealous?" He asked.

My eyes widened. "I'm not jealous! I already said I'm not jealous! You're ugly and weird and I'm not jealous that you keep hanging out with her instead of me and that you probably like her more than me and that Tsumiki lied when she said that you liked me if you're always hanging out with her!" I ranted and rambled on. I didn't even understand half of what I said, I just needed to get if off my chest.

Gojo laughed. Again. He said, "Then maybe we should hang out together. Just the two of us. Just you and me, Megumi-chan." He walked closer to me. I felt a bit nervous. He sat on my bed. He was so close. 

"Hmph." I grunted. I don't want to admit that I want to hang out with him. I'm not saying it out loud. 

Then he surprised me by laying down, right beside me, and pulling the blanket over him. He pulled me close to him, so that I was tucked into his embrace. 

"She was right you know, I do like you more than her. Tsumiki's a nice girl. But somehow, there's just something special about you, Megumi-chan." He admitted.

I blushed a little. "I- I don't hate you," I admitted. "And you're not ugly. But you're still weird." I told him.

He laughed again. "Well, that's good enough for now. Let's sleep together, just like this. Good night, Megumi-chan." He turned the lamp light off.

And I felt so warm and cozy that somehow, I got the feeling that I wanted to stay like this forever.
