"People who really love each other find a way. They don't give up just like that."

~A few days passed.

And here Fushiguro was, standing in front of Itadori's room.

He stared at the brown door, wondering if he should actually go through with this.

Taking a deep breath, he lightly knocked. After waiting for a few seconds, Itadori opened the door.

The two stared at each other before Fushiguro bowed at him, "I'm so sorry. Really, I am. I don't know what came over me and I deeply regret that those words came from my mouth. You were right. I shouldn't torture Y/N with my weird way of loving."

Itadori blinked a few times before smiling and patting the shikigami users back, "Hey, it's okay. I wasn't really mad anymore. I was about to go to your room too. And I didn't mean what I said. I really can't picture Y/N with anyone else but you. Your love may come off in a weird way but I least I know you can protect her."

Fushiguro straightened himself up and rose his eyebrow, "She didn't tell you?"

"Of course she told me. I'm her best friend. Maybe you were right to do what you did. But I don't think you were. Y/N really loves you. You restraining yourself from her is only gonna hurt you both."

"But-"

"No buts," Itadori interrupted, "If you truly believe this is right, then go through with it. But the longer you keep away from her, who knows if she'll hold her love and wait for you. Are you willing to see her with someone new?"

Fushiguro stayed quiet as Itadori smiled at him again and closed the door. Just when the door was in his face, Kugisaki's opened, "Oh? Are you friends again?"

The boy turned around and looked at her, "Yeah."

"So, what happened between you and Y/N?"

Nosy.

Fushiguro began to explain what he did. Kugisaki's eyes widened. Once he finished, she opened her mouth,

"Wow, that must have took some balls. It seemed like you were really in love with her. But, I guess you weren't if you let her go just like that."

He frowned, "I do really love her. What are you talking about?"

"I don't know," She sarcastically said, "People who really love each other find a way. They don't give up just like that. In a way, it feels like you threatened Itadori and begged Sukuna to revive her for nothing."

With that, she closed the door to her room and walked away. Fushiguro now felt annoyed and bothered.

Annoyed because everyone was basically calling him a pussy for running away from a relationship that never even started.

And bothered because that's when he realized he hasn't seen Y/N since he broke off whatever was between them. He slowly walked to her room. A part of him felt like he should give her more time. Another part felt like if he knocked, he would just go crawling back. And the last part felt like he should stop being stupid, listen to everyone and talk about their relationship and make it better.

As if it had the mind of its own, his arm rose, ready to knock. Before his hand made contact with the door, it opened, revealing the girl he had deeply fallen for. She looked up at him with wide eyes. They stood still.

No one moved.

Then, she embraced him.

She got a tight grip around his torso and sunk her face in his chest, taking in his cologne. He stood in shock for a few seconds before placing one hand on her head.

"What's this for?" He questioned.

"Well, I can't kiss you. And Yuuji called me a simp, which I am. I've missed you every second you weren't by my side." She whispered.

He lightly pushed her away, "Stop making this harder. I've already been trying hard to accept that we're just friends."

She frowned, "But I have to! We can't just be friends Megumi! You know as good as anyone that we can't."

"We were friends before, right? I'm sure we'll find our way back." He assured her.

Y/N stared at him for a second before sighing, "Fine. We'll stay friends. I hope that when our time comes back, you'll tell me how stupid you were for letting me go. Until then, I'm going to go back to calling you Fushiguro."

Ouch.

That one hurt him.

He furrowed his eyebrows, "Why can't you call me Megumi?"

"Because," She started as she folded her arms in a childish manner, "I started calling you Megumi out of a sort of intimate moment we shared. We may not of known about our liking to each other but I'm sure we both felt it. "Megumi" revolves around that intimacy. And since we're no longer sharing intimacy, "Fushiguro" comes back."

He stared at her, not really understanding what she just said but was processing it bit by bit.

"Fine then, L/N. I guess we're staying friends then?"

"I guess we are, Fushiguro."
