Arrogant hearts [ 傲慢な心 ] : Gojo Satoru

Chapter 5

the seductive, lustful way he looked at you was hidden well by his blindfold.

"Can you do me a favor?" he asked, you looked at him,  oblivious to what he was thinking.

"Hm? What is it?" you asked, your eyebrows furrowed, thinking of why this blindfolded, white-haired, arrogant guy would ever ask for help.

______________________________________________________

sweat was dripping from your body as you panted, gasping for air... your hands were on your knees, and Gojo was behind you, watching you...

"you already tired? we didn't even come much far from the school premises still" Gojo said with a clear frown on his face. 

you looked up at him "C-can you remind me why I agreed for you to join running?" you asked while panting.

he laughed, he was not in a pathetic state like you were, the sunrise was defining his features more than usual, painfully beautiful for eyes. he was wearing tight sports jeans and a short on top of it, with a black cap, but his blindfold was still there as usual.

 he threw a small towel at you which you caught and used to wipe off the sweat and drink the water from the small water bottle he gave you. "thanks" you mumbled

"you owe me a lot, my dear assistant" he smirked, making you give him his water bottle 

"I'll wash the towel and give it to you ASAP" You clutched the towel, which had a black pattern on the white background.

"Why? Are you scared to be owed?"

"I hate being owed, especially for someone unpredictable as you are" You were getting back to normal.

"I am unpredictable?" he asked, tilting his head.

"There is a pattern, but I'm not here to investigate you," you said and leaned on the railing, you could see the view better now, the sun slowly creeping up from the corner of the lake.

he placed the water bottle on the ground and leaned to the railing as well, he was not facing the lake like you were, but he looked at you from the corner of his eye.  "pattern, huh?" he repeated, he wasn't thinking much about your words, your clothes were enough to make him distracted from the conversation, your skirt on top of the tights, the way the skirt swirled when you ran and moved.

"now that I think about it, you have changed since I last saw you, ten years ago"

it caught his attention a little "Hm? What's the change?"

you shrug, you felt he has gotten a little less mean, something like that... "I don't know, your actions and the way you talk is... much calmer than it did ten years ago"

"I thought you would say that I am more handsome than before" he fake pouted.

"less aggressive or something" you shrugged again

"I guess, time does change people after all, every person" he stretched his arms a little. "shall we continue?" he asked with a small smirk

you had a bath and went to your room, but you got a text which made you go out of the room to the common area... you were there alone, sitting on the couch, with closed eyes when you hears his foot steps, looking at his watch while he sat next to you "you are early, Y/N" his deep voice made you smile.

"Nanami" you smiled softly. "long time no see"

"sorry, i had to go out of Tokyo for a mission, or i was planning on coming to pick you up from the airport" he said with a sigh.

"it's fine, i managed" you smiled "so, how is life?" 

"shit" his one worded reply made you laugh, he was like this from the beginning, even 10 years later, he was the same... 

"you seem to be doing good" he said, glancing at you.

"i found new friends here, so i am doing quite alright" you were content with your life here now, Fushiguro, Itadori, Kugisaki, all of them were very nice and even the second years were helping with your stamina problem.

"new friends? are there anyone else from our age group here other than Gojo-san?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"right, yeah, students, but still, you can still make friends younger and older than you" you shrugged 

"so, are they close with you?" he tilted his head a little.

"hm, yeah... it's good to see some cheerful children as them in the morning" you replied.

he nod "right, so.. how about Gojo-san? i don't think he was very fond of you when we were young, and he might be a little problematic"

you smiled "don't worry, I am careful enough not to fall for him" 

Satoru was walking towards the common room, in the corridor... when he heard those words... he leaned to the wall, listening quietly...

"i'm glad i could meet you on such a short notice, but maybe we can talk peacefully in a café when we are both really free" Nanami said and tilted his head a little

"hm, that means are going now?" you asked, fake pouting

he smiled slightly "yeah, i am assigned to another mission, I'll call you when I am finished"

after he left, waving his hand a little, his usual stoic expression was once back, you watched him leave before closing your eyes and laying on the sofa.

"you two a thing?" Gojo sat down, pushing your legs down of the sofa, your eyes opened 

"hm? we a- wait, why are you curious?" you asked, before letting the answer slip out, you were careful around of him, your eyes were opened this time 

"because if you guys are a thing, i have something to tease Nanami about" he shrugged, this blindfolded man was spitting half lies, but of course he was looking front, not at you, even though he had his blindfold, he knew lying to your face will be hard, harder than he thought.

you being the dummy, since he didn't even stutter, believed his lies. because you thought that was something he would do.

"then i shouldn't definitely tell you" you smiled slyly

that made his frown deepen. you sat up and stretched your arms. suddenly, Gojo stood up and placed his hands on the couch, beside each your legs, trapping you between his arms.

"take this off" he whispered. his nose was almost touching yours. 

"h-huh?" you asked, controlling your cursed energy output just in case if he does a trick like last time. you noticed... you didn't need to do that, you weren't flustered by his actions, your heart rate wasn't quickening.

"take my blindfold off" he repeated. you pulled it off, slowly, looking into his ocean blue eyes. you had forgotten how beautiful those eyes were.

"if you two are a thing, i'm gonna flirt with you. and make you mine, somehow" he whispered. you two were looking dead to each others eyes.
