**Title: Unspoken Bonds: Megumi x Reader** 
**Part Four**

The days at Tokyo Jujutsu High were unlike anything Y/N had ever experienced. Training sessions were intense, pushing her to her limits and beyond. She quickly realized that being a jujutsu sorcerer required more than just raw talent—it demanded perseverance, quick thinking, and, above all, courage. Each day brought new challenges, from combat exercises to sparring with curses, but Y/N thrived in the environment. She felt alive, as if she had finally found a place where she belonged.

Her bond with her new classmates grew stronger with each passing day. Yuji was always the life of the group, his energy infectious and his heart bigger than anyone's. Nobara quickly became the sister Y/N never had—bold, fierce, and unafraid to speak her mind. As for Megumi, he remained as enigmatic as ever. He was often quiet during their group training, focused on his own exercises or lost in thought. Yet, every so often, Y/N would catch him watching her, a curious look in his eyes, as if he were trying to figure her out.

One evening, after a particularly grueling day of training, Y/N found herself wandering the school grounds, trying to clear her head. The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the courtyard, and a cool breeze rustled through the trees. She was lost in thought, reflecting on her progress and the path ahead, when she heard footsteps approaching.

Turning, she saw Megumi walking toward her. He had his hands in his pockets, his expression unreadable as always, but there was a softness in his eyes she hadn't seen before.

"Hey," he said, stopping a few feet away. "Mind if I join you?"

Y/N smiled, a bit surprised but pleased by his company. "Not at all," she replied, gesturing for him to walk with her. "What's up?"

Megumi shrugged, glancing around the quiet courtyard. "Just needed some air. Today was... intense."

Y/N nodded in agreement. "Tell me about it. I thought I was going to collapse after that last exercise." She chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. "But I guess that's what we signed up for, right?"

Megumi offered a small smile. "Yeah, that's true." They walked in silence for a moment, the only sound being the crunch of gravel beneath their feet. After a while, Megumi spoke again, his tone more serious. "You're doing well, you know. For someone who's only just started, you're handling everything better than most."

Y/N felt a warm flush of pride at his words. "Thanks, Megumi. That means a lot coming from you."

He nodded, then glanced at her, his expression thoughtful. "Why did you decide to come here, Y/N? You didn't have to. You had a pretty good life before, didn't you?"

Y/N hesitated, unsure how to put her feelings into words. "I guess... I was looking for something more," she said slowly. "Something meaningful. I mean, don't get me wrong, I loved my life back home. I had everything I could ever want—money, fame, followers... but none of it felt real. Not like this." She gestured around them, at the school, at the world of jujutsu sorcery. "Here, I feel like I'm doing something that matters. Like I'm finally... alive."

Megumi listened quietly, his expression unreadable. When she finished, he nodded. "I get that," he said softly. "Being a sorcerer isn't easy. It's dangerous, and sometimes... it's hard. But it's worth it. We're protecting people. We're making a difference."

Y/N smiled, feeling a sense of camaraderie with him she hadn't expected. "Yeah, exactly."

They continued to walk in silence, the weight of their shared thoughts hanging in the air. After a while, they reached a small garden tucked away behind the main building. It was a quiet, secluded spot, with a bench nestled under a cherry blossom tree, its branches heavy with blooms.

Megumi stopped, glancing at the bench. "I come here sometimes," he said. "It's... peaceful."

Y/N nodded, taking in the serene beauty of the spot. "It's beautiful," she agreed, sitting down on the bench. Megumi sat beside her, his hands still in his pockets, his gaze focused on the blossoms above.

For a few moments, they sat in comfortable silence, the soft rustling of the leaves and the distant sounds of the school creating a calming backdrop. Y/N felt a sense of peace settle over her, a rare moment of calm in the midst of the chaos of their lives.

"Megumi," she said quietly, breaking the silence. "I have a confession to make."

He looked at her, a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "What is it?"

She took a deep breath, feeling a bit nervous. "Before I came here, a few months ago... I found your Instagram account. I saw that you only had a few followers, but something about you caught my eye. I followed you because I was curious... and I thought you were cute." She laughed softly, a bit embarrassed. "It's silly, I know."

Megumi's eyes widened slightly, a faint blush creeping up his cheeks. He looked away, his expression a mix of surprise and embarrassment. "I... didn't know that," he admitted. "I don't really use Instagram much. It's more of a way for Gojo to keep tabs on me than anything else."

Y/N chuckled. "Figures. Still, I'm glad I found it. If I hadn't, who knows if I would have ever learned about Jujutsu High?"

Megumi glanced at her, his expression softening. "I'm glad you did," he said quietly. "You're... different from anyone I've met. You don't let anything hold you back. That's... admirable."

Y/N felt her heart flutter at his words, a warm, tingling sensation spreading through her chest. "Thanks, Megumi," she said softly. "That means a lot."

They sat in silence for a while longer, the blossoms above them swaying gently in the breeze. Y/N could feel the weight of the day's training starting to fade away, replaced by a sense of contentment she hadn't felt in a long time.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the garden, Y/N turned to Megumi, her heart racing. "You know," she began, her voice barely above a whisper, "I think I'm going to like it here. With you... and everyone."

Megumi looked at her, his eyes soft and sincere. "Yeah," he agreed, a small smile tugging at his lips. "I think I will too."

And in that quiet moment, surrounded by the beauty of the cherry blossoms and the warmth of each other's presence, Y/N felt something shift inside her—a new sense of belonging, of purpose. She wasn't just a Twitch streamer or a rich girl with a perfect life. She was a sorcerer now, with friends who understood her, a school that challenged her, and a future full of possibilities.

And maybe, just maybe, something more with the mysterious boy beside her.
