The cold wind breeze was refreshing and cooled you down - not only from the growing heated room causing your blood to rush faster but from the tension that was heightened from your moment alone with Gojo. You sat on the table of a bench outdoors; it was a desolate environment as everyone was indoors in the lively atmosphere. The clouded music from inside quietened, you felt like a paper boat on a gentle river peacefully gliding along the surface. You stared up towards the clear sky taking in the view of all the stars.

Taking the time alone, you felt quite pathetic he had you whipped for a moment just by a single look at you, those eyes were a dangerous weapon alright. You could drown in them, their unfathomable depth and blue alure was consuming.
Guess you were right about that Utahime...

Suddenly the noise from inside briefly raised in volume as the door opened followed by a voice after it closed.
"Y/n?" The figure by the door calls you, the lighting unlike what was all-revealing indoors was much more ambiguous out here and concealed the identity of who was there. You tried it squint your eyes to try to make out even an outline of who it was to no avail.

"Who is it?" You call back crossing your arms across your front and frowning. You began to realise you were starting to get cold when your fingertips grazed the goosebumps on your arms.

"Guess whooo." They said coyly, but the annoying laugh that followed made it clearly obvious it wasn't who you hoped.

"This is a hard one hmm" You sarcastically sigh and ponder.

He chuckles to himself. He walks into the light and the wind brushes the white hair out of his face exposing those tantalising blue eyes.
"Can't buy a drink with no funds you know." He raises your clutch bag in front of you gesturing back to why you left the booth in the first place.
"But I mean I respect it if you were hoping the bartender would give it you on the house." He chuckles softly amused as he places the clutch in your lap and sits on the bench seat next to you looking up to you sat on the table.

"Thankyou" You smile, you thought it was a nice thought for him to have brought your bag to you. If only you had your coat.

A silence befalls you both once more as he stares up into the sky like yourself earlier. He points up to the sky, "That one's my favourite constellation, Ursula major" He smirks proudly. You look up to where he's pointing and look back at him with a frown.

"Really?" You question, not expecting him to care much for the stars.

"Nah I lied" He laughs to himself; it made you laugh as well but only a little. His antics were growing on you like Suguru's. You reminded yourself Suguru was probably alone with a drink again and you should return but you are enjoying the peace of the outside world.

You opened your bag looking for your packet of cigarettes while Gojo began to talk at you like earlier, you weren't paying much attention as once you had prepared the cigarette you were searching for a lighter in your clutch. You were scavenging in all the pockets as it wasn't in the main section as usual, you had rested it in your mouth while you were looking for the lighter for it, another habit picked up from Shoko.

"Keep still" He whispered tenderly as a spark appeared in front of you. You looked up to see Gojo was stood in front of you offering you a spark from his own lighter.

You gently leaned forward to heat the end up as you protected it from the wind with your hands and withdrew when you knew it was right. You breathed in, breathed in and exhaled.

"Thankyou" You smiled at him as he gestured you to share. You passed it to him as you fastened up your bag. He sat next to you on the table, the sound of his deep breaths was much calming than the previous moment you had shared indoors. You shiver at the thought.
