Slow Burn [JJK FANFIC AU]

Chapter 05

"So like, I was wondering what was the fuss all about but it turned out it was just Nanami who indeed fell on the stairs."

"Why are you laughing?! Give that man a break!"

"I mean, Mahito keep shouting about someone was to fall from the top, but we never thought that he actually orchastrated everything! Haha!"

It was already late in the afternoon.

Emma and Ieri was having the time of their lives for a moment, talking about stuff and things that had happened in their lives. Though, it was Ieri who shared most things about her life. Emma doesn't know what to say to her friend anyways.

The two of them were on the dining table eating and chatting. Earlier, they saw Gojo suddenly walking out and left the house followed by Suguru who seems off.

However, Suguru reassured them that an urgent emergency was currently happening on their company and Gojo's presence is pretty much necessary to deal with it.

It was a lie. Emma can tell it but she didn't say anything. It may seem convincing to Ieri but she was keen enough to realize the sugar coated words. His words didn't corresponded with his facial expression at all. Aside, eyes don't lie.

Emma just smiled trying to conceal the uneasiness which is not making her feel comfortable. But for the sake of Ieri, she masked everything off.

"I wonder what happened? Gojo seems to be in a rush this time. He didn't even spared a glance at us. It must be really bad, huh..." The brunette woman languidly stated as she ate.

"Well...that's not new to me at all." A bittersweet smile that appeared on Emma's didn't go unnoticed by Ieri.

She knew the current state of their relationship but she chose not to meddle on their personal affairs. Just supporting Emma and helping her might be enough. Gojo may be her friend but he won't let her scold or let her decide things for them.

Ieri respects Gojo even though he's an inborn asshole specimen.

The young woman just watched Emma elegantly ate her food. To her, she's an unbelievably strong and independent woman. Not only that, she's beautiful, intelligent a perfect package at that. What's more? Despite her hostility towards her husband, she still take good cares of him...well she does it subtly.

So she can't understand why he hates his wife so much? He just made her realize that Emma deserves someone better. His wife is to die for, if he's a man, he'd definitely steal Emma away from her friend.

'Haha.'

She chuckled at that thought. Emma is her bestfriend, but if she happened to be a man, she'll definitely fall in love with her.

"Why the hell are you laughing, Ieri? You're weird." She snapped out from her reverie when she heard her friend's amused voice.

"Nothing!~"

"Nothing you say, huh..."

"Ain't lyin'!"

"Look, the bully is here!" Mahito, who just arrived at their hangout yelled when he saw Gojo lounged on the sofa with bottles of empty beers. "Man! You look so out of it! I absolutely like it when you look like shit!" A shit eating grin appeared on Mahito's face.

However, Gojo never spared him a glance or even reacted, which irked Mahito even more. If it was a normal circumstance, Mahito would've been long passed out on the floor.

But tonight, Gojo's mind was occupied with something else. Something he hated with every fiber of his being.

"Mahito, keep it down. Don't tease Gojo way too much." Another ravenette man who had just arrived suddenly spoke. "He might cry." He grinned.

"Tojiiiii!" The blue haired man lit up as he skipped his way towards Toji.

"So, your wife let you out this time? What about your son? Why didn't you bring him here. That kid is really amusing..." Mahito laughed.

"There's no way I'd let you interact with my kid. You've got the shittiest influence here, dumbass." Toji growles, as he drink the alcohol prepared for him.

"Oii! The hell! Take that back you shit."

"Ah yesh. No way." Toji sighed as he facepalmed, "that kid of mine learned talking back to my wife ever since he met you. I can't even handle him whenever he's in foul mood. That kid... But seriously stay away from him Mahito!"

"Haaaa???"

As the two bickered back and forth, Gojo's thoughts were somewhere else. Meanwhile, Geto stepped out a little bit because he suddenly received a call from his secretary Kuro. The guardian of Suguru's scholar Amanai.

The white haired man gulped the remaining liquor from the glass in one go. He's feeling frustrated right now because not only Suguru found him in the most worst state of him in his own house, he's also angry at the fact that the long forgotten emotions were starting to resurface and make him go crazy.

Since he got a low tolerance for alcohol, it wasn't a surprise that he starts to feel dizzy and his vision is getting blurry as well.

He sighed, the sound around him starts to become dull, even his head were throbbing but he's too numb to realize it. He didn't know that he's subconsciously reminscing what had transpired four years ago.

The end.

A/N:

I'm not that stupid to end it like this haha.

I made Toji's waifu alive in this fic because even tho he's one of gojo's asshole specie, he still deserves so much.
