Chapter eight

"Kaito~ a wonderful surprise! (y/n), there's a charming gentleman out here to see you" Your mother announced, gaining your attention.

You make your way to the entrance of your home, welcomed by a friendly face, as well as a desperate wretch.

"Good morning, Kaito. It's a pleasure to see you" You greet with a giddy smile your mother seems to be completely eating up for her own marriage-planning satisfaction.

"My father gave me the coordinates of your lodging and insisted I take you out for breakfast as well as a day full of quality time. I happily obliged and quickly readied a carriage, now patiently waiting outside." You listen to him talk, stealing glances at your mother who did not appear as surprised as she hoped to present herself as.

This would be much nicer had it not been arranged. Though, It was still sweet considering you were not ignorant to his fondness over you.

Luckily you had already gotten ready for the day: thinking you'd be meeting Sukuna at the hill. He should, anyway, appreciate the time to himself.

With a warm smile, you offer your hand. He gently takes it in his and guides you to a carriage drawn by elegantly regal, white horses. Fitting to the Gojo clan.

"I hope you haven't eaten and ruined your appetite this morning." He assists you into the carriage like a proper gentleman.

"Lucky for you, I have not"

"I must say, I was a bit worried on my way here that you have eaten some sweet treats already. Your lack of self control when it comes to food is something you'd expect from an individual who's starved for three days" He set himself across from you in the carriage. "Mmm...not a very lady like trait of you to possess Ms. (l/n)..... what will your mother think?" He cheekily finished.

You squint your eyes in his direction. "Try this for unlady like-" squeezing into his knee with your hand, he gasped and thew his knee up and away. His appalled stare could only hold for so long before you both broke into a fit of laughter.

Real, genuine laughter.

You had to admit, enjoying a laugh WITH Kaito felt nice compared to Sukuna's cold, 24/7 expressions.

A carriage ride later and a small stroll in town resulted in you two seated at a high end breakfast spot you would have never known he could have afforded your first bite together.

"Order whatever you desire. Though, I would steer clear of desserts for now. Those may just make a surprise appearance later in our day together~" He couldn't help but gaze at u longingly as your face lit up at the mere mention of goodies.

"No office today?" You question your pearled hair friend.

"No, I have much more important matters to attend to."

"If i didn't know any better, i would say your trying to flatter me" Your food gets placed on the table. A trout with an assortment of vegetables.

"Perhaps you caught me. Am I that transparent?" He gives a charming smirk that makes you chuckle.
