The Phoenix (Gojo Satoru × female reader)
65 parts Ongoing She was Winter.
Silent. Unforgiving. A masterpiece carved in frost.
She didn't melt - she cut.
Her presence left people breathless, not from awe...
but from the chill she carried in her bones.
No one dared touch her.
No one tried to understand the blizzards she buried beneath her skin.
Because Winter wasn't cruel -
it just didn't know how to stay soft.
And then came Spring.
Loud. Laughing. Alive.
He didn't knock-he barged in,
with sun-soaked words and a grin that bloomed in places she thought were dead.
She didn't believe in love.
Not the kind that stayed.
Not the kind that chose her.
But he did.
Again. And again.
She built walls.
He didn't tear them down.
He leaned against them - until she opened the door.
She didn't trust the world.
But somehow, she trusted him.
He didn't rush her thaw.
He waited in the cold - just to feel her warmth once.
He made the world laugh.
But no one noticed when he stopped laughing.
Except her.
Everyone saw his power.
She saw his pain.
He gave light to everyone.
She was the only one
who asked if he had any left for himself.
She didn't need him to be strong.
She just needed him to be real.
She didn't rescue him.
She stayed - when he didn't think anyone would.

"Why do you keep coming back?"
"Because even if you burn me a thousand times- I'd still reach for your fire."
"But you shouldn't fall for someone like me."
"Too late. I fell the moment you didn't look at me like I was a god."
He brought flowers to her frost.
She gave his chaos stillness.
They were never meant to work.
♡ But God, they were beautiful anyway ♡
