2 days before they leave for Tokyo

I woke up when I heard an alarm clock go off. Wait... I didn't set any alarms though.... I slowly started opening my eyes to try and see were it was coming from. Ok clearly not from my room. I placed my ear against the wall and what a surprise, it's Kamo's. Why would he make it so damn loud?! Well now that I'm up might as well get ready. Wait if I woke up with his alarm... than what time is it?! I looked at the time to see that it was 1pm. What. The actual. FUCK?!? Well I did go to sleep at 5am yesterday thanks to Kamo, so that explains it.

After having a mini metal breakdown at how late it was I went into the bathroom to get ready then headed straight to the kitchen to.. I guess have lunch. "Good morning" I still had my eyes half closed as I waved back to Kamo.

"Rough morning?"

"I wouldn't really call this a morning" I said before grabbing the cup of water he handed me. "thanks"

"Yeah, sorry for keeping you up" he went to sit on the sofa as he patted the spot next to him for me to take. I went over to grab a blanket before taking my place next to him and wrapping us both in the blanket. "Want to just chill for the rest of the day?" He said while placing his arm behind my head.

"There's nothing I want to do more." I layed on his shoulders now closing my eyes to relax them for a bit.

"Are you excited?" He said as his hand found it's way to my hair giving me a mini massage. I sighed before answer him "I honestly don't know."

"You don't?" I opened my eyes again to look up at him. "Would you want to go back?" He looked back down at me worriedly. "If you think it's better to stay here, you know you're more than welcome, right?" He placed his hand on my jaw as his thumb rubbed gently over my cheek. "I know, But I need to go back. I'm going to officially be a student now. Plus, I miss the others as well, I haven't seen them in too long. I also need to face my bullshit and stop running away." I smiled at him before bopping his nose "That doesn't mean I'm not going to miss you guys. I'll call you all whenever I can and maybe visit if Gojo takes me."

"You're not gonna miss me as much as I will. What will I do without my friend with benefits." He let out a long sigh before leaning his head back ok the sofa. "Awhhh, you're going to have to start using your hand again." I pout before he looks back down at me with a serious look. "It's no were near the same" I tried to keep a serious face on but I couldn't help the smile that was starting to form on my face. "Ask Miwa she might help you." I wiggled my eyebrows at him as he gave me an "are you serious?" Look. "What? Why not?!"

"I don't want a relationship! What we had was good because there's zero feeling involved. And she's too innocent for that. If she found out what we were doing she'd be mortified." He let out a small chuckle now looking at me before talking again. "I bet she'd be down for Gojo though" I scrunched my nose up in disgust "Oh god! Hopefully not. He'll just make her one of his hoes"

"Poor Miwa"

"Poor Miwa"

"Poor Miwa. Why are we talking about Miwa?" We both looked up as I pushed myself off of Kamo hurriedly.

"Hi Todo, What's up?"

"I'll tell you what's up! If you two get anything on that sofa and don't clean up after-"

"Todo." I looked at him with a look that could kill. While Kamo just chuckled next to me.

"...ok. Get of the sofa now! IT'S TAKADA-CHAN TIME!" Before we were able to get out of the way he came crashing down on the sofa sitting straight on my back. "Ouch! You bitch! Get your fat ass off of me!" I tried to hit him as hard as I could but he didn't even budge. I looked up at Kamo for help while he just stood there smiling at me. "Kamo I swear to God if you don't help me I'll turn every drop of water you contain in your body into ice and-" Before I was able to finish my sentence I felt two hands pull me up from under that fat cow. He placed me down as I now stood in front of him with a creepy smile. "I guess you're safe." I heard him sigh before continuing my sentence "for now" he looked up at me worried as I did my macho walk over to the fridge to grab a green apple than slamming the fridge shut before I make my way over to the garden.

"She's crazy."

"I know, I'm praying for my life everyday I'm with her."

"I'll pray for you two bro."

"Thanks Todo."

"Love you bro."

"Love you too bro."

I heard them both whisper as I went outside for some fresh air. I wouldn't be surprised if I went back inside and found them making out at this point.

It's my last official day here. And I really don't know how to feel. I love everyone here but Tokyo is my home. The people there are my home. And I do feel a little guilty saying that with how much everyone has done for me here to make sure it felt like home. But I can't help it. I'm just scared that old feeling will come back, ones I've been trying so hard to get rid of. Todo wanted to go to Tokyo tomorrow for something and Mai is coming as company she said. And I'm going with them. Sadly Kamo won't be able to come. But maybe it's for the best. I told Gojo not to tell anyone I was going but he had already told Maki so we told Maki not to tell anyone. Hopefully I can still trust her. I wasn't supposed to move now actually. It was going to be at the goodwill event. But for some reason that old hag of a principal said it would be better to leave a little early. Just say you don't like me being here, jeez.

After a few hours to myself in the garden Kamo came by to tell me that it's probably time to start packing everything up again. I nodded before getting up and following him back to my room. We both stayed quiet as we packed everything neatly into boxes and gave them to Todo who carried them out into the van that was going with us tomorrow.

I layed on the bed exhausted before motioning with my hand for Kamo to lay down next to me. He did as told as he laid down facing me. I have to admit, at first this whole thing we had going on was weird but we both made it very clear that we're just friends so that made it better. I started it to forget about someone else. I though replacing him would work. But I guess it never really did but I never stopped it. It was nice having someone. Made everything a lot easier. I never told Kamo why and he never really questioned me which I liked. But deep down I knew he wasn't stupid and he had an idea of what was happening before I came here. I mean, they've come to Tokyo before everything happened and we went here together. So everyone knew we were close. Just not how close. But even before I was already kinda close to Kamo so he saw how we were and again, he's not stupid and he knows me.

I felt a hand on my face pulling me to look to the side and when I finally came out of my day dream I saw Kamo close to my face looking at me with a smile before he talked "One last time?" I chuckled as I smiled back at him "one last time." I moved closer to him connecting our lips as he took the lead for the rest of the events that happened that night.
