"Get some sleep, it'll be a while before we arrive." I said as I sat down next to Megumi.

"I'm fine." He replied, hiding a yawn by staring out the window.

"Just sleep." I gave him his things while Gojo sat in the aisle seat.

"She's stubborn, just do what she says." Gojo told Megumi who eventually just leaned back in his seat to sleep.

"I'll admit, I doubted your ability to take care of him." I said, side eyeing him.

"Rude." He smiled at me, leaning back as well. "I'm going to take a nap.." he said crossing his arms, resting his head on my shoulder. "Can I?" He asked me.

"You never bothered to ask before." I told him, to which he just looked at me from behind his blindfold. "Yes you can." I replied and I felt the foreign but familiar weight of his head on me.

Checking the time, it was nearly 7 in the morning. "9 when we arrive, let's see what's open.." I thought looking through possible breakfast places.

"What are you doing?" I glanced at Gojo.

"Thought you were napping." I said, showing him my phone screen.

"I woke up, what's this? Food?" He asked.

"Yeah. Anything you want?" I asked in return.

"Anything is fine. Let's just eat at the station." He replied, readjusting himself in his seat before trying again to take a nap.

"I guess that's fine." I thought, putting my phone away.

~~~

"Wake up sleepy head." I lightly pinched Gojo on the cheek as we were nearing the station.

"(Y/n)-sensei." I looked at Megumi. "Thank you." He handed me my jacket that I placed on him earlier.

"No problem." I smiled at him as I forced Gojo to his feet and pushing him out of the train.

While the two boys talked about their assignment, I went to buy myself a drink at some vending machines.

"So, meet back here in two days?" I looked up at Gojo and Megumi.

"Can you get done by then?" I asked and Gojo looked at Megumi.

"What do you think?" He asked him.

"Yes." Megumi nodded.

"Alright. This is the hotel we're staying in while we're here. We got two rooms, I don't care which one you guys use." I texted them the location. "Work hard, don't get hurt or do something stupid." I waved bye to them as I left to complete my own assignment.

My assignment was basically clean up, so I finished relatively early. I went to the hotel to relax for the day.

That night, I was watching TV while eating dinner I got from room service. I heard the door click open, not really caring since I knew it would be Gojo and/or Megumi. What I didn't expect was the unconscious kid Gojo was carrying.

"What did you do?!" I asked, jumping out of the bed and helping lay the kid down.

He was thankfully still breathing, but he did seem injured. "I can explain." Megumi walked up to me and explained about what happened tonight.

"... he ate it? Seriously?" I asked, looking at the boy, whose name I now know as Itadori Yuji.

"Seriously." The two of them replied at the same time.

I sighed, looking at the three of them. "Why is he here?" I asked.

"I wanted to save him, somehow." Megumi looked at the kid. "He's a good person." He said and I glanced at Gojo who seemed satisfied with that answer.

"Alright. Good enough for me." I made sure the Itadori boy was properly on the bed, and had Megumi use the other bed. "Don't complain, you're injured too, take the bed." I looked over at Gojo who seemed lost in thought.

"Hey, what'd you buy?" I asked, seeing the bags in his hands.

"Snacks to eat on the ride back." He smiled showing the boxes of Kikufuku. He rambled about the snack he bought, and how he was planning to buy more tomorrow before getting on the train.

"Good for you." I smiled, sitting on the chair. "So, what's your plan to convince the geezers?" I asked looking at Itadori.

He sat on the floor, leaning against the wall. "Well, Megumi said he wants him to live, so I gotta pull through." He smiled at me.

"Awfully vague." I replied. "Still can't believe he ate it." I sighed, checking my phone. "Earliest train, if we account for your shopping is 10." I told him.

"Here." He handed me a key card. "I'm staying here in case he wakes up as Sukuna. You should use the other room." He told me.

"Yeah, no." I sat next to him on the floor. "I'm also responsible for Megumi's safety. So we're both going to take him to the other room, and let Megumi sleep here." I stared at him, to which he just smiled then nodded.

"You're the boss." He said, standing up to carry the boy. The two of us went to the next room which was down the hall.

"I don't need much sleep so I'll make sure nothing happens tonight." Gojo said as we secured Itadori to the bed.

Staring at him, I reached out my hand. He noticed my gesture, and put his hand in mine. "You don't have to do everything." I said, staring at the contact between our hands. "Sleep. I'll take first watch." I lead him to the bed, pushing him down, resulting in our faces being mere inches apart. We silently stared at each other before I took a step back, our hands still linked.

"Anyway, I may not be as strong as you, but I can take one finger." He smirked at my wording, to which I attempted to punch him. "Shut up and sleep." I smiled, throwing a pillow onto his face.

"Night (Y/n), thanks." He said as he situated himself on the bed, behind me.

"What are you thankful for stupid..." I thought as I put down a paper doll and a pentagram as preparation. "Night." I replied.
