|POLARITY| Gojo Satoru x Reader

34.

Y/n's POV

I can't interrogate him here; I can't worry them, not when it's about Gojo. Their eyes shine when they look at him; Megumi goes even further, constantly testing me. Not that I blame him for it; I'll never understand why Gojo is so overly trusting of me. I still don't know if he is being nice with no ulterior motives or if he is doing this to help himself by getting on my good side. 

I still can't ignore the fact I owe him.

But that doesn't mean I'll trust him blindly.

I shouldn't do that.

He is avoiding me ever since Yuji made us sit to watch this weird movie with him. I am not really watching it, though. I'm looking at him and his stupid blindfold, his stupid smile that doesn't falter when I glare at him as he faces the screen.

No way he is smiling looking at this film.

I tried to speak to Sukuna on our way here, but he hasn't responded to me. I even poked Yuji's cheek, but nothing.

What the fuck is going on now?

He is acting different ever since that night. My mind goes back to this morning. The honored one. I'm sure Sukuna said that; he can't hide behind that black blindfold all he wants. I know him enough to know he doesn't act on things without a reason. Sukuna knows something I don't, something he knows about too.

He is hiding it from me.

"Nobara, look, this is my favorite part. They fight." Yuji points at the screen.

"Gross!" Nobara is right; it is a little gross.

I am sat with Nobara and Yuji. Satoru is sitting with Megumi, who fell asleep when the movie started.

Nowhere to run.

I can definitely scooch in between them. It's a three-person couch after all. The idiot is sitting taking two spaces on the couch. His legs spread. I don't care, Gojo Satoru. I'll sit there. I need to know how bad whatever you are hiding is.

"I'll go to the restroom..." I stand up and go play dumb in the restroom for a minute. I'll go sit with him; I'll get it out of him. I will. I open the door ready for my mission.

"Stop looking at me so much, not in front of the kids at least." He pulls his blindfold up, and I curse at the reaction my body has to it. "What were you planning to do with that scheming look on your eyes?"

I curse the way I can't control my expression.

Am I red?

Really?

For Gojo Satoru?

"Sh- Shut up, I wasn't looking at you like that!" I should not sound this bothered. God, he is getting in my head.

Oh, I hate myself... I hate this.

He grins, leaning on the bathroom door frame. "So you were looking, huh? I couldn't really tell with this stupid thing." He tosses me his blindfold. "Why were you looking then? If it's a dumb excuse, I'll call you out on it."

Fuck, I can't look at him.

My mind goes blank when I look at him.

I look at the blindfold in my hand as I sigh. "What are you hiding? If it's a dumb excuse, I'll call you out on it too." I want to look at him, but I shouldn't.

"I did something stupid yesterday." He tilts his face closer to me. "I was... impatient." I can't avoid his eyes if he comes so close.

God, his eyes are inches away from mine.
