Friends since high school, Gojo and Utahime are. They conversed and shared feelings, but Utahime has never liked Gojo because he often teased her throughout high school and still does today. Gojo decided to visit Utahime as he wanted to catch up. Th...
She wakes up the next morning feeling more well-rested than she has in a long time. As she gets ready for the day, her thoughts drift to a certain blue eyed man.
"Ugh, get a hold of yourself," she mutters, splashing cold water on her face. But she can't deny a small part of her is...curious what he has planned next.
Just then, her phone lights up with a new text. Her heart skips a beat as she sees it's from Gojo.

As she continues brushing her teeth, she decides to open the full message.

She rolls her eyes even as a smile tugs at her lips. As much as he irritates her, the idea of a warm breakfast is tempting on this chilly morning.
Before she can think better of it, she types out a reply. "Fine, but you're paying." She hits send and starts getting ready, telling herself it's just for the food.

As she's finally done getting ready, she then leaves her apartment and starts heading to the cafe. As she enters the cafe, she sees Gojo sitting at the corner table and starts walking towards it.
Gojo looks up from his phone with a bright smile as she approaches the table. "Well well, look who decided to show up."
She looked at him annoyed.
He takes in her annoyed expression with amusement. "Good morning to you too, sunshine. You're just in time, food's almost ready." As if on cue, the waitress arrives with a piping hot omelette and coffee. "Bon appetit!" Gojo says cheerfully.
Utahime then takes a bite of her omelette, it was pretty good, especially because it was coming out of Gojo's pockets, not hers.
He watches her take a bite, waiting expectantly. "So? How is it? Better than your usual cold cereal, right?" He winks playfully.
When she doesn't immediately tell him off, Gojo counts it as a win. Content to simply enjoy her company in comfortable silence, he sips his coffee with a soft smile. Baby steps, but each moment together is progress as far as he's concerned. Gojo is just happy to have found a way past her icy walls, even if only for fleeting moments like this.
While they eat silently, they both get disturbed by a text they both received. It was from Masamichi, Jujutsu High's principal.
"Hm that's weird."she says while reading the text "Did you get the same text too?" This was very unusual that they'd get the same texts. Especially about a mission, since Gojo would normally be assigned missions alone since he was the strongest.

Gojo frowns as he reads the text, then looks up at her question. "Huh, yeah I did. Wonder what that's about..."
He taps his chin thoughtfully. It is strange they'd be assigned a mission together, given their history and different specialties.
"Think the higher ups finally realized how lost you'd be without me?" He shoots her a teasing grin. But there's an undercurrent of curiosity and concern too.
She looked at him irritated, and then clicks on the notification to get more information.

Gojo then also pulls up the mission details, his brow furrows. "Hmm, seems to be pretty powerful cursed spirits.. For them to send both of us..."
He meets her gaze seriously. "Guess we'll find out more at the briefing. But something tells me this one isn't going to be easy."
Utahime looked at Gojo, still confused and didn't believe that a cursed spirt could be this strong, too strong enough for Gojo to handle.. there was definitely something else.. another reason. She just didn't know what. It would make sense for them to partner up though.
Reaching over, he gives her hand a brief reassuring squeeze. "Well, at least we'll have each other's backs. Let's go kick some cursed ass, partner."
She rolled her eyes, still thinking. They most likely assigned her with him for this mission as she could temporarily amplify the total cursed energy and output of one sorcerer within her range.. she then snaps out of her thinking.
"don't touch me." she said annoyed still in her thoughts.

Gojo chuckles and raised his hands in mock surrender. "Alright, alright, no touching. You're still as prickly as ever I see." He laughs while he admires her as she sits thinking.
Finishing the last of his coffee, he stands and stretches. "Well, let's get going then partner, time's a-wasting." He shoots her a playful wink.
