Troubles (Itafushi, Itadori x Megumi)

Chapter 6: First Trouble

A/N: One day late, sorry.

Can't believe I wrote 4k words about Megumi having a mental breakdown (lol)

Important notice at the end of this chapter!!

-----------

Megumi's eyes tore themselves away from the picture and he was then met with the same ice-blue eyes as one month before. The blue eyes that had had him enchanted. The blue eyes and the pretty face and the charming body of the person whom he had lost his virginity to.

Gojo.

---------

It was indeed him. Megumi was face-to-face with Gojo. Here. Right now. They were meeting again.

"Oh..." Gojo uttered lowly as he halted in his tracks.

Gojo was Yuuji's dad. Adoptive father, actually, but... Yuuji was calling him dad.

"What kind of reaction is that?" Yuuji teased Gojo, taking off his jacket. Casually he added, "Don't tell me you two have met before."

Yuuji had positioned himself in front of Gojo, more or less waiting for an answer. He had his back turned to Megumi, and Gojo was watching Megumi silently, lips still showing a small 'o'.

Megumi, who had been in a seemingly paralyzed state ever since entering the house, snapped back to reality.

He realised the fatality of this.

Megumi had slept with him.

Yuuji was Gojo's adopted son.

Gojo was Yuuji's adoptive father.

Megumi and Yuuji were roommates.

Megumi had slept with him!

His heart started to race, he was sensing cold sweat damping his skin. His stomach started coiling.

His eyes quivered. Yuuji couldn't see him, Gojo could. With much needed efforts, Megumi shook his head behind Yuuji. First slowly and controlled, then more erratically and desperate.

Don't tell him. Don't say anything!

There was no way Gojo didn't understand Megumi's begging. He had not once lost eye contact with Megumi ever since appearing. His face lit up. "Actually, yes! I remember him!"

I'm going to faint. Megumi's head started spinning. A ringing sounded in his ears. His eyelids fluttered.

"He bumped into me today!" Gojo finished.

Megumi's inner frenzy cleared a bit.

What?

"Really?" Yuuji faced Megumi with raised eyebrows.

"Uh, y—yes... yes!" Megumi freed himself from his numbness. "Yeah, I... was running some errands during lunch break and... bumped into him. Not forgettable... that hair..." Megumi mentally facepalmed himself for that last statement. It didn't make his bluff any better!

"That white hair looks crazy, right?" Yuuji agreed and then addressed his adoptive father again, "You look like a grandpa."

"I look younger than you, Yuuji."

Yuuji bursted out a mocking laughter. "Yeah, sure. Anyway, this is Megumi. My roommate. We share a class. I thought maybe you'd be fine with helping us out, if we ever need some help?"

"Sure. I can help you." Gojo's stare rested back on Megumi. With a small, innocent smile, he said, "Hello, Megumi."

Megumi was unable to respond to his greeting. Yuuji didn't notice it. A big part of his personality was the ability to overlook things, if they didn't seem strange enough to him. He would need more obvious clues.
