Itadori's Letter To Megumi

The Letter

Megumi breathed in and let out a heavy, sad sigh. he steadied his hand on the nob of the door and shut his eyes to prevent the tears from falling. he successfully held them back, but that didn't stop the threat of tears that came all the time nowadays. after moments of silence around him but his mind racing with thoughts and what-ifs, he finally decides he's ready to open the door, the one closed door he hasn't been ready to open since that day..

he slowly opens the door, but is no longer greeted by a pink-haired ray of sunshine with a smile brighter than summer sun, but instead the cold remains of his scent left behind. he looked around the room slowly, taking in the different atmosphere. he always considered this room a safe place, except it has a different, sadder aura.

Megumi steps into the room and walks over to the desk and picks up a photo. the photo was a selfie of him, Nobara, Gojo-sensei, and.. Itadori. he gave a quick smile and rubbed his thumb along the photo at the sight of it, when things were more simple. when his only problem we're his own feelings, and curses of course. he found a folded piece of paper next to where he found the photo, and decided to open it.

when he did, it said "letter in left drawer under book"  letter? he thought. it might be letters to us from him? he wasn't usual this curious, but he would do anything, just to see any trace left behind by Itadori. he reached for the same left drawer that was mentioned, and sought the letter that was under a book, one he recognized but couldn't quite place. he swore to look into it after, but turned his attention to the nicely sealed envelope in his hands. he carefully opened it up and the letter, addressed to him, read:

"to Megumi,

i've never been able to describe you with words, words are much too dull to explain what i feel for you. so i'll write a letter, saying how i feel about you.

the way your hair matches your face and it's features, how your eyes and smile can scare away any trace of darkness and spread light where the dark once was. every time i think of you, i think of how lucky i am to have you. i know i'm annoying most of the time, but you haven't left me yet, so thank you.

you're also so caring and patient, at least with me. i'm not saying i'm easy to handle so the fact you've felt with me is impressive. you're also super strong and i look up to you a lot. i don't think you love me the way i love you, but i'm ok with that, as long as you'll still be my friend

so to my Megumi, my wonderful Megumi, i love you with every part of me, and i will forever love every part of you.

-Itadori Yuji"

a sad smile reached his lips, the tears rolling down his face, some making splats on the letter. maybe in some other reality, they could've been happy. maybe in a different life, they could get their happy ending. but i guess we'll never know, huh?
