5 days.
It's been 5 days.
No information. No sign of life. Nothing.
You spend the lunch break in Shokos lab, crying in worry while she rubbed your back, telling you it'll be alright. Yaga tried contacting Kyoto, but they didn't have any news either.

"The higher-ups are insane for sending Satoru and Kento alone." You sniffled. Shoko reached into her labcoat pocket, offering you a napkin. You thanked her and blew your nose. "You know how much they hate Satoru for being so strong? It's so stupid. They should be glad he's on our side. If things were reversed, we'd already be dead. He's the greatest protection we have, and they send him on a death mission?"

Gently stroking your hair, Shoko looked at you in worry. "I don't think they send him on a death mission. Yes, they're not very fond of Satoru, but they wouldn't purposefully get him killed." You couldn't tell if she really believed her own words, but you thanked her for trying her best to calm you down.

After lunch break you were back on training fields with the students. Even though Megumi, Yuji and Nobara tried to hide it as good as they could, they were also worried about their Teacher. Especially Megumi seemed a lot less focused on training. He would never admit it out loud, but he truly cared about Gojo.

"Do you love him?" Megumi suddenly asked you while Nobara and Yuji were combat-training against each other. Your head snapped so fast in his direction, your bones cracked a little. "What?" you asked, rubbing your neck. "Do you love Gojo?"
Squinting your eyes, you tried to read Megumis facial expression to why he would ask you this question. "I mean- that's a little private, Fushiguro. Why are you asking?"
"Gojo told me he does."
Your eyes went wide in surprise.
He what?

"What do you mean?" - "He loves you. He told me." Moving your head around as if searching for a hidden camera, you were absolutely confused by where this was coming from all of the sudden.
"He also told me he didn't have the guts to tell you yet. He said he really fucked up the last time he said it, so he wanted it to be meaningful this time."

You were actually surprised Gojo talked to Megumi about you. Yet at the same time, you were talking to Schoko.
Dropping your gaze to the grass in front of you, you smiled.
"I do."

Megumi nodded, his eyes not leaving his classmates. "He'll be back soon." He promised. You looked back up, staring into the side of his face. "How can you be sure?"

The younger man now moved his head, his dark eyes finding yours. You never really made eye contact like this with him, it was weird, but it gave you a warm feeling. It felt like he finally trusted you enough. "Did he promise you to come back?" You nodded. Megumi simply shrugged in response. "That's how you know he will."

"Okay guys, I don't know why we're not training with the second years today, so I'm a little overwhelmed. Apart from fighting, what could we do?" You felt a little embarrassed to admit it, but you've only been here for a month. You didn't fully know what to do as a teacher.

"We could play catch!" Yuji suggested, smiling brightly. Both Megumi and Nobara groaned at this. "How old are you? 10?" Nobara mocked him, but you intervened. "You know, it's not too bad of an idea. Speed exercise. Good job, Itadori." Yuji smiled proudly while you walked around, planning in your head.

"Alright, you can move freely in this area, from the running tracks to the big tree over there. If someone gets out, they've lost. Fushiguro, you'll be catcher first. As soon as you catch one, they're the catcher, obviously. If one of you gets caught twice, they're out. Last one on field wins. Also: No cursed energy allowed. Understood?"
While Nobara and Megumi still weren't 100% convinced of the idea, they obviously wanted to win. So they agreed.

About 20 minutes later, Nobara was the first one to leave the field. "He was above me, that's so unfair! How did he jump so high?!" She complained, to which you just shook your head and laughed. "You obviously shouldn't underestimate Itadori."
Yuji and Megumi were now head to head. It took another 10 minutes for Megumi to finally be the winner.
"Good job, guys!" You applauded them as the boys walked over to you, both breathing heavily and lightly sweaty.

While you were thinking about what next to do, Yaga suddenly appeared behind you. "I'm sorry to disturb your lesson, Y/N." - "It's fine, we're on a cooldown right now." You assured him and he nodded. "I have good news. Ijichi just called me. The mission was successful, everyone is on their way back."
It took everything in you not to jump at him in excitement. You couldn't believe it.

Gojo was coming home.

"Thank you for informing us." You smiled, trying to sound as professional as possible, even though masses of fireworks were currently erupting in your stomach.
Yaga nodded. "They'll be here in about 2 hours." With that he left again, dissappearing back into the school building.

When Yaga was out of sight, you couldn't hold your excitement much longer. Screeching in excitement, you threw your arms around Megumis neck, hugging him. "You were right, I'm sorry I couldn't believe it but you were right!" Megumi was taken aback by your action, noone really just came around and hugged him.

Still comprehending what was happening, Yuji suddenly joined in, throwing his arms around the both of you. "He's alive! I'm so relieved!" He called out in excitement, hugging you and Megumi tightly.
Nobara quickly snatched her phone out of her pocket to take a picture, before Megumi even had the chance to protest.

Finally letting go of Megumi you stepped back, whiping a couple of small happy tears from your eyes. "Oh god, I'm sorry Fushiguro." You apologized, laughing in embarrassment. Megumi scratched the back of his neck. "It's fine. I'm glad he's coming back, too."

"I'm relieved we don't have to do stupid shit like play catch again!" Nobara noted. You turned to her, a mischievous grin on your face. "I'll make sure Gojo adds catch to your timetable." The girl groaned In frustration. "I was just starting to actually like you!"
