Our musical / Satosugu

-14-

Gojo was the first to wake from his sleep, he went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Dark undereyes were gracing his face, making him look even worse than he felt. He splashed some cold water onto his face, trying to get himself to wake up properly. Brushing his teeth before breakfast was a must for him, he couldn't stand how his mouth felt after waking up. After that, Gojo went to look for Geto and found him on the couch with an earphone in his ear and the other fallen to the floor. He picked it up and put it in his ear, jumping as the loud music was something he had not expected.

"And you can sleep with that?"

He asked, rather talking to himself, Geto was still sleeping after all. A look of concern filled his expression as he brushed Geto's hair out of his face, seeing his puffy eyes and some faint tear stains. His heart sank but he pushed it down, acting as if he didn't notice. Taking a step back, he called out Geto's name, trying to wake him without coming too close, afraid to startle him.

"Five minutes"

A small mumble was heard from Geto and Gojo chuckled in return. Geto felt to his ear, noticing an earphone missing and he was awake all of a sudden, sitting up hastily, looking all over the couch for the missing air pod.

"Looking for this?"

Gojo looked from above his sunglasses, down at the raven-haired with a smile, holding up the air pod that had been in his ear just a moment ago. Geto sighed out in relief, going to snatch the oh-so-dear earphone from him, though Gojo was faster and chuckled, pulling away his hand just in time.

„I know you will go back to sleep so come, get it yourself"

Gojo said with a smirk and stepped behind the small dining table which was placed in front of the kitchen to get a bit more space between them, it would be easier to run from Geto that way. But alas, Geto didn't and just sat back down on the couch, his head and back aching from the lack of sleep, the uncomfortable position he slept in as well as the loud music only making everything worse. His mentality was again almost at its lowest.

Overall he just felt like utter shit.

"Suguru..."

Gojo put Geto's air pod on the living room table before Geto, sitting next to him, hesitating to put a comforting hand on his shoulder. He took a good look at him and breathed out deeply, slowly so Geto wouldn't notice. He knew how messed up he was, he just wanted to...cheer him up?
did he?
or did he want to make himself feel better because he too was drained?

Geto didn't tense up at his touch as he usually would and buried his face into his hands.

"What? I'm tired...I told you five minutes"

Gojo took away his hand and stood up, figuring that the raven-haired wanted some time alone

"Five minutes and I'll get you to go"

Gojo left the room and Geto sighed, done with his day already. He stood up after a minute and went to their bathroom, doing his morning things with slow movements. After a bit, he got out, changed, and was "ready" to go, or rather looked ready. Because internally he definitely wasn't.
They went to their lesson together, yet the walk was silent, for Geto rather suffocating, for Gojo it didn't make much difference, Geto wasn't much of a talker anyway.
Gojo held open the door for the other, not even getting a "thank you", so much was he in though. Most of the seats were already taken, Geto needed a bit longer but Gojo didn't mind, he knew something was up. They sat two rows apart from each other, two rows were nothing but so much, for Geto at least.

Gojo couldn't help but let his mind drift to Geto, he stared at the back of his head, playing with his pen in his hand while the other supported his head.
"Just what....what is going on with you"
He thought and though, figured it had something to do with Mahito but obviously had no real evidence and if Geto wouldn't tell him....he had to get it out of either him or Mahito himself.

Without noticing the bell rang and the lesson was over, Gojo waited for Geto and grabbed his wrist gently and pulled him with him. Geto was startled and expected it to be Mahito, his hands starting to grow cold as his nervousness rose within him. As soon as he looked at Gojo though, he relaxed a bit.

"Where to?"

Geto asked but received no answer and got pulled outside. The white-haired breathed in a deep breath of air and exhaled, no smile, no frown, his expression couldn't be read. What gave away the stress he was under was revealed by the vape he pulled out from his pocket.He took a long drag from it and leaned his head back, slowly exhaling the smoke with a small smile.

"What a dumbass"

Geto mumbled and took Gojo's hand, leading him to a bench away from school sight.

"you might just get yourself caught"

Geto sat him down and then next to him, leaning back with his head in his neck. He extended his arm over to Gojo. He understood and chuckled, handing him the Vape. Geto took a drag, not such a long one as Gojo but also not an exactly short one either.
Smoke faintly surrounded them as they smoked in silence, passing the vape to each other, both feeling slight dizziness from the nicotine, the two of them being occasional smokers.
