When Jun woke up, she was met with the same pair of blue eyes she'd remembered so vividly.

"Am I... dreaming?" She whispered, knowing that the only way she would see him again was if it was a distant memory replaying in her mind before she died.

"I know I'm pretty, but I'm not that pretty", Satoru chuckled as he stepped back "You're alive and well, if that answers your question."

She heard him say that she was alive. She quickly sat up and looked at her hands. Real.

She touched face and looked around her room. Real.

Then what the fuck was Satoru doing there?

She could recognized his eyes and his hair anywhere.

"Who... are you?" She wanted to make sure. Just in case. She knew she was dreaming, it just had to be. There's no way she'd run into him now. And like this.

"I'm Gojo Satoru..." he introduced himself "Suguru's best friend."

'FUCK... WHAAAAT?!!'

"You're awake" Suguru walked in and sat next to her "I'm so sorry I couldn't-"

"You should've saved them instead" she mumbled.

"Jun, please don't say that" Geto held her hand "I know I-"

"It's not your fault..." she looked out of the window "please don't blame yourself."

"I understand if you don't want to see me anymore."

"No..." she looked at her hands guiltily "what's the point of all this if I can't even..."

"Please don't say that. You're doing so well with them".

"I couldn't even protect them" her breaths were shallow. Geto put his arms around her as her face sank into her hands. He couldn't say anything and he didn't want to, he laid his chin on her head as she rested her head against his chest.

"But the kids need you" Satoru said "you know they wouldn't be the way they are without you."

"I should've done better".

Geto decided to stay with her for a while until she got better. He knew he had to face everyone else the the next morning but he wanted her to feel better first.

"I love you", he held her tight before kissing her goodnight. "I love you", she whispered, snuggling closer to him, the warmth putting her to sleep.

Geto woke up to an empty bed in the middle of the night and panicked when he couldn't find her next to him. He rushed to the kids' room to see her on the chair by the window, holding Tio as he slept in her arms. Her eyes fixed on something outside the window, the moonlight bringing more attention to the small frown on her face.

"You need to rest", he leaned against the doorframe with his arms folded against his chest, he didn't look very pleased. His shirtless figure looked so tempting as he walked in, the dimly lit room accentuated the muscular ridges carved on his body, the tattoo on his left bicep extending to a part of his toned chest made him look so decadent.

"The kids haven't been sleeping well", she said.

"I'll stay here", he said when he saw the others toss awake. "Please get some sleep", he sat in their bed, trying to get them to sleep again.

"Geto san", Itsuki crawled into his arms. "What if that big scary man comes back?"

"Not as long as I'm here", he said, "no more scary guys".

"Promise?"

"I promise". He watched Itsuki's droopy eyes close as he caressed his head.

"Suguru san..." she said once she was certain that all the kids were asleep "...will you be okay tomorrow?"
