𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐄 ┊ Nezu Chuukichi

o. PROLOGUE

THE AFTERNOON BREEZE hit a black-haired male letting his eyes show from their hiding before the bangs closed it again.

"Tomoya I better get going, it's almost my shift," Chuukichi says to his like a golden retriever friend.

Yagi nods waving bye to his friends with girls clinging to his arms and crowding him, "Have fun Chuukichi!" Chuukichi nods at him and he walked away from the school ground.

He needed money for his family, he comes from a poor family and these special circumstances led him to work multiple part-time jobs which the chairwoman allows him. Students aren't supposed to have a part-time job since the school doesn't allow it but Nezu Chuukichi is given permission.

As he walked past the kids' playground, he saw a kid under a tree with teary eyes looking up.

"Nee-chan be careful!" She yelled to the tree.

"Don't worry I'm an expert when it comes to climbing a tree!"

Chuukichi furrowed his eyebrows when the kid talked to someone when he look up to the tree his eyes widen at the sight of a girl with the same uniform as his climbing the tree.

"O-Oi!" He shouts.

"Here kitty kitty kitty, come here" She ignored Chuukichi shouting, she's standing on a big branch and slowly coming closer to the cat that is stuck on the tree.

The cat hisses when she reached her hand to the cat, before she can touch the cat, the cat swipes its paw on her hand creating a scratch with blood starting to come out from it.

"Ouch, hey that hurt y'know I'm trying to help you here," the girl said taking another step toward the cat.

"Mikey, nee-chan is trying to help you! Don't hurt her!" The kid yelled once again.

"Ah, I got it!" The girl yell when she grabbed the cat by the back of its neck.

"Yay!"

Snap!

The branch she was standing on suddenly snaps causing her to fall with the cat in her arms, as she falls small branches hit her on the face.

Then she creates a loud thump when she lands on her back, "Ouch."

The little girl and Chuukichi ran towards her "Nee-chan are you okay?" She asked, the girl gave an OK sign👌 she sat up from her previous position and gave her the cat, "Here's your cat."

"Mikey, don't run off like that" The little girl scolds her cat making it meows. She then bowed to the h/c teen. "Thank you for saving Mikey nee-chan," She waved bye and leave her and Chuukichi.

"Hey you're wearing the same uniform as mine, you're from Morinomiya academy?" She asked Chuukichi who nods.

"Yes."

"Have I seen you before?"

"I guess, I'm from the advanced class, Nezu Chuukichi," Chuukichi said to her making her grin at him.

"Hey, I'm from the advanced class too! I'm L/n Y/n, nice to meet you." She stands up taking her bag from under the tree.

"Hey," Chuukichi says looking at her.

"Hm, what is it?"

"Hey, you're bleeding." Chuukichi points to her face and knees, blood oozing out from her knees, cheeks, and nose.

"Huh? What, oh yeah" She simply replied looking at the blood, she pull out her handkerchief and press it to her nose.

"You should treat it before it's infected," Y/n nods at his words.

"Well, I better get going, see ya Nezu!" She waved and ran in the other direction while saying it hurt.

"I better get going too, my shift is about to start."

WHO DARE TO CALL MY BABY SATORI A MONSTER!?!

MONSTER ; satori tendō

pairing: satori tendō x fem!reader

warnings: angst (?), bullying, hurt/comfort

wc: 1.4k

requested: no

a/n: okay, this is sad, I'm so sorry guys. I promise I'll make it up to you all. feedbacks are always welcome, and requests are open!

Satori started to put away all his things once the lesson finished. When he was done he made his way out of the classroom to head to lunch like all the other students. He met with Ushijima in the hallway and just like always they went together to the cafeteria, with Tendō excitedly rambling about the newest Shounen Jump number he read last night insted of sleeping and Ushijima silent like always. Tendō noticed the students behind them whispering, but he didn't give them much importance, they were probably talking about Ushijima and how could he ever be friend with him, nothing new to Satori.

Once they arrived they approached the table were some of their teammates sat and took a seat with them. Tendō continued his rambling, repeating the same things he just told Ushijima to the others, as he put his backpack on the ground beside him. He moved his gaze to the backpack to take out his bento, but he stopped his motions when he noticed a piece of paper attached to it. Satori furrowed his eyebrows confused, he didn't remember seeing it before, so he took it to see what it was. He became suddenly silente once he read what was written on the paper, earning some perplexed looks from his teammates.

"Tendō is everything okay?" Reon asked to his friend, who said nothing in response. Tendō quickly gathered his things and stormed out the cafeteria, without saying a single word.

[...]

You entered the gym and headed to the boys locker room, were you knew you could find the boys right after practice. Once you were in front of the door you knocked, asking if you could open without seeing anyone naked. You opened the door when you heard their permission.

"Hi everyone, where's Satori? I haven't heard from him since before lunch" you asked worried, he usually texted you in the afternoon and right before practice, so it was strange of him.

"Actually the last time we saw him was at lunch, he didn't come to practice today" Semi answered with a confirm from the others. You knew something happened, one thing was him not texting to you, another thing was him skipping practice. He loved volleyball with all his heart, it made him feel good. Nothing could stop him from playing, even if he was sick he would still go to practice, much to your dislike.

"Anybody knows if something happened?" maybe they could give you an explanation, so you could stop worrying so much.

"We just know that when he was taking his lunch out of his backpack he suddenly shut up, and when we asked if everything was okay he just stormed out of the cafeteria" Goshiki explained to you, you nodded smiling at him. You thanked them and apologised for your "interruption", then you made your way out of the gym, heading to Satori's dorm, where you hoped you could find him.

Once you were in front of his dorm you knocked, waiting for a response, that didn't come, implying that nobody was in there. But you could ear some video games music from where you were, so you knew he was in there. You tried to open the door, hoping it wasn't locked, and luckily it wasn't.

"Hi Satori" you sweetly said, entering the messy room. You didn't get an answer from him, he didn't even acknowledged you, he didn't even move his eyes from the screen to just look at you for one second.

"Is everything okay?" Still no answer, not even a nod.

"Satori you didn't go to practice, I know something bothering you" You smiled to him but still nothing. You tried to touch his shoulder to try to comfort him in someway, even if you didn't have a clue on what was in his mind, but he pulled away before your hand could reach him. You furrowed your eyebrows hurt by his actions, you knew he was in pain himself, but it still hurt seeing him refusing your touch.

You didn't know what to do, you have already been in this kind of situation with him, with his past coming back time to time, but he was never like this, completely withdrawn, not even wanting your comfort. Your eyes wondered around his dorm trying to magically find a solution on the walls or on the floor. That's when you spotted a piece of paper slightly crumpled. You didn't know why but your instict, and your curiosity, told you to pick it up. You followed what your instict tol you, then you opened it to reveal what was written on it.

Monster.

Suddenly all connected in your mind, while your eyes started to water. You blinked away the tears, and after taking a deep breath you turned back to him.

"'tori..." you tried to approach him again, being as sweet and gentle as possible.

"Don't touch me." He stated, removing from under you touch once again. You persisted, you really wanted to help him. But all he did in response to your actions was getting up from the chair to put as much distance as he could between the two of you. You looked at him in the face, his eyes were empty. Not even a glimpse of your sweet and joyful Satori.

"Don't come closer. Why are you even here? You could be with everyone at this moment, but no, you chose to come here, why? You feel sorry for me?" He spat when you took a step closer to him, you shook your head. He was in the verge of having a crisis and when you tried to talk to him he immediately cut you off continuing his rumbling.

"If you're here out of pity you can go back to whatever you where doing. I don't need your pity! I-I can take care of myself alone, like I always did." His voice broke with the sobs he was trying to suppress.

"Satori, please, calm down" With every step you took forwards he took one backwards, until he met the wall. When you were in front of him you hugged him, even if Satori was trying his best to get away from you.

"Go away! I don't want you here! Please leave me alone." His attempts to get away from you got weaker until he stopped trying to escape your embrace. Now he was wrapped around you, his head on your shoulder and his arms around your neck while yours were around his torso, as you gently moved your hands up and down his back, trying to soothe him.

"It's okay, I'm here with you" you whispered leaving gentle kisses on his head. You knew his past still taunted him. He tried to hide all of this with his loud and cheerful personality, but sometimes he needed to let his true feelings out.

People never looked past his reputation, they always thought he was weird and even dangerous sometimes, he didn't even have any friends before high school because of this. Now, with his teammates, that deep down really cared and worried about him, and with you, he felt less alone.

But there was still the constant reminder of what people thought of him for his entire life. The constant looks he received when he walked in the hallways or the whispering behind his back when he was with Ushijima or one of his teammates, was something he got used to, but today, when he read what was written on the paper, he felt like he received a slap to come back to reality, where he was a monster nobody cared about. The little kid inside him was hurt, again.

You guided him to his bed, and, once you both were laid down, he clung to you, buring his head in your chest. You caressed him, saying nothing but letting him know that you were there for him and didn't intend to leave him. You let him cry and release all his emotions, while you remained silent. At the moment he just needed your presence, you could talk to him later, once he was fully calm.

He cried until he fell asleep in your arms, and even in his sleep, he tightly held into you like you were his anchor, because, in fact, you were.

i. CHAPTER ONE; HER

L/N Y/N IS careless girl but she loved to help people around, she does not care if she's bleeding.

It happens when she was in first grade of primary, she come back home with a wide grin and proudly said to her parents "I saved a bird from being eaten by a cat!" Her parents are happy but they fussed about the scratches and blood all over her body.

It happens again the next day with a different story and it becomes a habit of her.

She remembered her dad coming to her room that night, patting her head with a soft smile "Y/n do you know what I admire about you the most?"

"What is it dad?" She asked curious with what is it that her dad admire her about.

"You're not scared with a single thing, you always want to help others. I admire that from you." His words made her smile, "But that doesn't mean you can get hurt, you have to watch yourself Y/n."

Now she's a highschool student with a smart brain but still being careless of getting hurt, things never change everytime she comes home with a scratch or blood oozing from her small wound her dad would laugh about it and treat her injury despite her mom yelling at her that she should be more careful.

Her mom is a nurse while her dad is a reporter.

"What do you think you're doing?" Inomata says crossing her arms from her assigned seat while her male classmates are putting a clear tapes on the door while chuckling.

"Oh we're pranking Yagi, when he walks in the tape will hit his face" he said laughing as he nudged his friend.

"That's a bit childish don't you think? Stop being loud we're trying to study here." Inomata remarked.

"Come on Inomata this class needs to be livelier, all we do is studying."

"Stop it! You might hurt Yagi-kun!" One of Inomata classmates said looking at the tapes.

"Yeah! Take it off!"

They starts to argued until someone running inside the class  "Yahoo good mornin─" Her sentence was cut when her face hits the clear tape.

The class except Inomata starts to laugh when Y/n looks at her classmates with the clear tapes still on her face which pulled her nose that her nostril looked big.

"Aw man it wasn't Yagi..." some guy mumbled.

"L/n sorry about that."

Y/n pulled the tapes off her face wincing slightly. Her face was red from pulling the tapes. "Ouch, hey Inomata whatcha studying?"

Inomata was confused she just said Ouch and asked her what she's studying.  "I'm studying biology," She answered the question which Y/n 'oh'd nodding and sit down next to her where she was assigned to seat.

"Good morning everyone," a soft voice spoken, it's the prince. Yagi Tomoya with his bestfriend that as well have a good looks despite that they can't see his full face but have seen his gorgeous eyes.

"Kyaa! Yagi-kun! Nezu-kun!"

"Yagi-kun can we study together?'

"Oh sure!"

"What no fair! I want to study with him too!"

While Yagi is being crowded with the his fans, Nezu immediately noticed there's the girl from yesterday talking casually with Inomata.

︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶༉‧₊˚.

Everytime she moves Nezu would unconsciously watch her every move. Silently winced everytime she hit herself.

"L/n-chan come here" one of the girls called her, which she responded with a nod and starts to approach her fellow classmates, in process the table hits her hip.

"Ow" Y/n mumbled rubbing at the place where she was hit before going back to her cheerful look. "What's up?" She asked with a smile, as if that didn't happen.

"Are you okay?"

"Of course, that was nothing."

"Okay..."

"So what do you want?" Y/n asked.

"You like shoujo manga right?" She ask Y/n who gave her a nod. "Do you have Hibi Chouchou? I always want to read it and Sato-kun said you have a whole collection of mangas."

"Oh Hibi chouchou huh? Yeah I have them, do you want me to bring it to you after school tomorrow?"

"That fast? sure if it doesn't bother you."

"Alright, see you tomorrow. I gotta go before class starts" Y/n waves, avoiding the tables and chairs. When she reach to the door she sighs in relief for not getting hurt but however she should have avoided the door.

A loud thump was heard, Y/n had hit her chest to the door.

A second later Y/n pained groan echoed through the class.

︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶︶༉‧₊˚.

School is over, Y/n doesn't have a club yet she's still thinking about. She changed clubs every year, she wants try every club she could try.

The swimming club, the baking club, the female soccer club, the female volleyball club, the kendo club, the drama club which she aced it, the karate club, and the babysitters club. The last time she joined the babysitters club she enjoyed playing with everyone and of course she got hurt all the time.

When she quits from the club everyone was sad about it but she promised to visit regularly.

Anyway today is her turn for class duty with other students of course.

"L/n can you come with me to throw the trash out?" A girl asked.

"Sure!" She puts the board eraser down and help her classmate with the trash.

They chatted about the previous lesson, how it's hard for them but they easily understand it. It's a quite tricky question the teacher put.

"When's the field trip?' Y/n asked throwing the trash, putting the bin behind her.

"I don't know, are we going to skiing? Or are we going to the beach?"

"I can't wait till that time comes!" Y/n stretch her arms up as she walks, just as she turned around she ran into the bin making her trip with the bin under her.

"Oh good job Y/n" Y/n said to herself before standing up again. "You can wash your hands first, I'll deal with this." Y/n told her patting the bin.

"Are you sure?" Y/n nods shooing her away with her hand. "Alright, see you tomorrow!"

Y/n sighs and starts to drag the trash bin to her class while whittling her favourite ghibli movie song, Ponyo on the cliff. She perks up when her eyes catch the sight of the famous second handsome boy of the school. Nezu Chuukichi.

"Oh Nezu-kun, Nezu-kun!" She called in a sing-song voice.

"L/n-san," Chuukichi said.

"Oh so you remember me?" Y/n ask him, she pointed to herself.

"Yes, you are my classmates after all." Chuukichi replied.

"Well I better go and put this back to our class, see ya!" Y/n walks away.

"L/n-san, you should watch where you're going." Y/n looks back only to see Chuukichi already walking away from her.

"It's not like I want to get hurt," Y/n grin.

SUKUNA SAVING YOUR LIFE

synopsis: this is based on this random thought.

a/n: this was way harder than i thought it'd be. and it took so much longer than i planned. (i even worked on it during my lectures i just couldn't get it OUT OF MY MIND). anyway, i hope you enjoy it!!!

the curse had come out of nowhere.

you'd been celebrating your victory of successfully eliminating the threat of the grade one curse with your classmates, when all of a sudden, an overwhelming surge of energy knocked the four of you to the ground.

it didn't take long for you to find yourself trapped in the special curse's domain, unable to move due to the sheer pressure of its presence. and it took even less for the three of you to become on the verge of exhaustion, able to barely fight by just for your survival.

"(y/n)! fall back!" you can barely make out megumi's urgent voice before the attack is sent your way, hitting you square in the spine.

the breath is knocked out of your lungs, your mouth opening in a silent scream. unbearable heat and discomfort surges through your bones, incapacitating you.

your hands are trembling, your vision is blurry. around you, the whole world is muffled, like a pillow settling over your five senses. the world is tinted red, and oh? was that a pool of blood increasing in volume with each passing moment?

you struggle to stand up, using whatever strength in your hands to raise yourself up, to keep fighting. if you fall that means you had failed your friends. nobara was already lying unconscious, yuuji and megumi ganging up against the special grade curse.

with shaking legs, you struggle to stand, to balance yourself. but you finally raise your head, bringing your crossed fingers in front of your temple, gathering all your strength into this finally attack.

you accumulate enough cursed energy, feeling your whole body draining, until all at once you release it, and it unleashes stronger than any attack you had ever made.

you were sure, this would hurt the curse badly, enough to create an opening for your friends to finish it off. you and the boys watch it as it finally reaches the curse, the force wave washing over it, you can see yuuji gathering his black flash, ready to take it down—

the curse stands still as the attack washes over it, it sets aflame, and you hear its terrible pained screeches. relief washes over you, the ghost of a smile making its way into your face.

until the flames die out all at once, and the curse slowly, almost comically, turns around. it's previous mocking face was all but gone now. replaced by an ugly frown, it looks angry. and it was looking straight at you.

your eyes widen, hands shaking in disbelief. you can't control the exhaustion as the aftermath washes over you, can't control your trembling lips as you finally collapse.

and then the fear, because you know it's making its way towards you, you know megumi and yuuji won't have time to hold it back. and you really don't want to die, not this soon. you have to move out of its way, but you're on your knees, watching helplessly as it dashes towards you.

unbeknownst to you, at that same moment, excruciating pain surges through yuuji's head. his hands fly up to clutch at his temples as he doubles over.

"get yourself together, we have to help (y/n)!" megumi yells but he knows it's no use, the curse had already crossed half the distance, it was going to get her, and only yuuji's supernatural strength is on par with its own, but he was busy having a migraine—

"he wants to come out!" yuuji finally yells, and in the next instant the all-familiar black tattoos slowly appear on his skin.

he begins growing in size as sukuna takes over his body. megumi couldnt believe his eyes. he had to help (y/n), why the hell did sukuna make an appearance at a time like this? he grits his teeth, taking his defensive stance, but sukuna doesn’t even glance at him.

he dashes towards (y/n), and megumi would have never believed it had he not seen it with his own eyes, but he stands between (y/n) and the curse.

with one swish of his claws the special curse they had almost been killed by is split in half.

there's rage in sukuna's face, rage that freezes megumi on his spot. a manic glint in his eyes as he pounces on the curse and rips it to shreds, even when it is clearly dead.

and when he’s done with it, as he turns around and kneels before you, that rage is nowhere to be seen.

instead, you are sitting there on your knees as you watch it unfold, certain that once the king of curses turns around, you were the one about to be ripped into pieces.

instead he's kneeling in front of you, a conflicted, almost gentle look on his usually demonic features as his large hand reaches out to you, before he stops mid-way.

and you realize with a jolt, that the great curse before you is hesitating.

you feel your heart beating wildly against your chest. you are afraid, very much so. he was so big, so animalistic. with his outstretched claws, his four eyes and his sharp fangs when he opened his mouth only to close it again.

suddenly you feel the tears running down your cheeks, and his eyes soften at the sight.

he isn't hesitant anymore when his hands, with the sheer strength you knew he possessed, wipe away at your tears so gently, so softly, cradling your face as if you were made of glass.

and when he leans in, pressing his lips to your forehead, you refuse to believe this is reality.

when he pulls away, its yuuji facing you with an incredulous look on his face. and you realize with another jolt, that with his kiss, sukuna had healed all your wounds.

you're left speechless, staring into the eyes of your pink-haired friend as if he had suddenly grown another head. he looks back at you with the same look.

***

a week has passed.

you were growing impatient, but you were also scared.

impatient because yuuji was banned from seeing anyone after his latest 'slip-up'. scared because even though you wanted an explanation for what happened, you feared what it could mean.

however, you should've known better than to assume this presumed ban would last any longer. it took only for gojo-sensei to burst into your room for you to understand his intentions.

"wanna go see sukuna-kun?"

you flush at his insinuation. to be fair, you preferred these jabs to be directed in front of your face rather than behind it. it was what everyone was speaking about, anyways. how you had somehow seduced him.

jujutsu sorcerers were truly insane, in more ways than one.

but that was at the very back of your head. as you follow your very tall sensei through the hallways, you finally reach yuuji's room.

as soon as gojo slams open the door, yuuji jumps up from his bed.

"i swear i have him under control. he just went all crazy and started torturing me from the inside. he made a pact and he only wanted to save (y/n)—"

yuuji stops as soon as he spots you.

you pale. so, it really was true. he didn't, say, hold a grudge against that particular curse, or he didn't feel bloodthirsty all of a sudden. no, but of course not, he had healed you after.

he had wiped away your fearful tears.

"yuuji-kun!" gojo-sensei suddenly exclaims. "do whatever (y/n) tells you to do." and with that, he leaves the both of you together, closing the door behind him with a slam.

"are you okay?" yuuji is the first one to break the silence.

you shake your head, "i am fine," you say lowly, "are you?" you ask him sincerely. this was, after all, the first time you'd seen each other after that dreadful mission.

he flashes you a wary smile, his hand flying to rub the back of his head. “well… ” he starts. “it’s been, strange.”

“what do you mean?”

yuuji’s face is serious when he replies. “he’s been awfully quiet.”

you don’t know how to react to that information, but you can’t help but look away.

you’re now both sitting on yuuji’s bed, knees almost touching. instinctively, you grab his hand with yours and squeeze it.

“that’s a good thing, no?”

“well, yes.” he turns to fully face you. “but he’s never this quiet. he’s always spouting insults and threats, this silence is…unnerving.”

you hum. “i see.” you nod, thinking of the best course of action. “i need to speak to him.”

the words surprised you as much as it surprised him.

“uh-oh, no well in hell.”

“you heard what gojo-sensei said, do whatever i say.”

“i am sure he didn’t mean letting out the king of curses.”

“i am sure that’s exactly what he meant.” and you were very sure. knowing your sensei, he must have known that this is eventual what you would want to do. which is exactly why he uttered that last command to yuuji.

yuuji thrashes around, muttering about how irresponsible and stupid you were being, you didn't disagree, but you stood your ground. with your arms crossed over your chest, your deadpan face finaly drives yuuji to agree.

"fine!" he finally concedes. "but you get ten seconds with him."

you laugh humorlessly, "two minutes."

"you're mad," yuuji shook his head. "i'll give you one minute, but the second i sense malicious intent i am switching."

you nod. "fair enough."

and as yuuji steps back and closes his eyes, you start to panic. what exaclty were you going to do once you face him???

you had no time to think as yuuji starts growing in size, the black tattoos appearing slowly on his skin.

and when narrowed, red eyes glare back at you, you take a deep, shaken breath.

he does nothing but stare at you. you don't miss the way his eyes scan your body, or how his displeased frown only seems to grow by the second. his overwhelming presence takes over your senses. an aura of destruction and death fills the room, and it becomes harder to see anything past the fear clouding your thoughts.

"what do you want, brat?"

somehow, hearing those words helps to calm your nerves. even if they were spoken with such disdain and displeasure. it was the indication you needed to be certain he wasn't going to attack you.

but deep down, you knew all along that he wouldn't hurt you. not really, anyway.

despite every fiber in your being telling you to take a step back, you take one step forward with shaky legs.

he seems taken aback, and if you weren't hyper aware of every slight movement he made, you would've missed the slight inhale of breath when you took another step forward.

"you have some nerve, to stand unarmed before me." he says sowly. "if this were anyone else—"

he realizes his mistake and stops. his jaw is harshly set, his hands clenching and unclenching at his sides. if this were anyone else.

"i know you." you finally say the words that have been plaguing you all week.

sukuna freezes. three, simple words rendering him in a state of disarray he hadn't experienced in hundreds of years. it was all he could to maintain the scowl on his face, the leer as he looked at this woman to whom he had given out his heart so, so, many years before.

he barely remembered her, and it made him all the more pissed. why would such a puny, tiny, (beautiful) creature make him, this confused? this obsessive, this protective?

he hadn't been able to stop thinking about you ever since he first saw you through the eyes of yuuji. something in him stirred, something he had long lost. but of course, he ignored the jabs he could feel every time you got yourself hurt. he didn't care. he never did.

so why had he gone feral when you had laid there, on the brink of death? the thought of losing you, of your death. it was suffocating, unbearable, he couldn't allow it. he didn't allow it. did he?

and this was why you were here, standing so close to him. loooking at him with those big (e/c) eyes that searched his for answers. you look so soft, so weak compared to his strength; he knew he could kill you with one swipe of his claws. the thought, however, didn't entice him one bit.

and then you spoke those words. i know you. and it was as if you had read him perfectly, saw right through him. understood exactly what was going on here.

"you know me too." it wasn't a question.

your voice was so low, so shaky, but not uncertain. you suddenly wanted to touch his rough skin with your own, to close the distance and feel him. how was it, that one felt affection for a monster?

"you need to stay away from me," he says, and your eyes find his. they were pained, but stern.

"why?"

"because i am a curse." he steps closer, and you realize with a jolt how close he was to you, how, if anyone of you takes one step closer, your chests would collide. "isn't that common knowledge for you troublesome sorcerers?"

and then his hands hover again, just like they did back then when he saved you. and even if he does hesitate like last time, this time, he continues. until his finger is on your face.

gently, slowly. one finger, and then the rest follow as he cradles your cheek.

the breath has long been knocked out of you. he towers over you and you're frozen. how can a beast such as him gaze at you with such longing?

"why do i know you?" you whisper, and he gently shakes his head.

the movement is slow as his eyes roam your face, until they finally settle on your lips. he slowly brings his thumb to brush over your lips.

your heart almost burst through your chest. your lips slightly part.

you can't move, not under his gaze. not when he was this big, this magnificent.

all too soon, he pulls away.

"never seek me out again." he says. you panic, hands reaching out to stop him as he steps away.

but you were too late, yuuji's confused face staring back you.

***

you toss and turn in your bed that night.

a simple moment you'd spent with him, and it had completely taken over your thoughts.

despite your better judgment, for the nth time that day, your fingers ghost over your lips.

you could still feel his touch, hot and hiding a secret you wished to unfold.

who were you to him in your past life? you shudder at the possibilities, at the truth you saw in his rough, yet sincere gaze.

eyes softening at the reminder, you hug your pillow tighter to your chest, as you let out a defeated sighed.

until they suddenly harden upon the following events.

somehow, the higher ups had gotten wind of the situation. you were summoned immediately after departing from yuuji's room.

"this is an unprecedent case," they had said.

"you do understand the importance of this task, don't you, (l/n)?"

"make sure to earn the affection of the king of curses, that way, we might finally be able to control him."

what did they expect you to do? you were barely able to get a minute to speak with him, let alone earn his affection. whatever that meant.

amidst your jumbled thoughts, a yawn makes its way to your mouth. you feel the fatigue washing over you. tapping on your phone screen, it lights up. 2:47, it says. you really should sleep.

but just as soon as you start closing your eyes, your phone starts buzzing non-stop.

annoyed, but more so alarmed, you quickly reach out for your phone. it was yuuji who was blowing up your phone.

pink-haired dork:

(Y/N)!!

he's killing me

he wants to see you

he's demanding to see you

(y/n) i want to see you too, something has happened i need to tell u.

don't come to my room we're both being watched.

(y/n) are u here??? wake up!!!!

you sit up straight, staring at the screen apprehensively. your fingers begin tapping away.

what do u mean we're being watched?? wth

your phone buzzes instantly.

pink haired dork:

megumi told me. he and nobara overheard a conversation earlier. we didn't understand what it meant but i think sukuna does.

he's been pestering me for hours but he just told me it means you're in danger

your confusion increases as you begin to reply.

and you believe him?

pink-haired dork:

i can't risk not to. if this true, (y/n), then we need to get you out of here.

before you can reply, your phone buzzes again.

meet me by the fountain in 15

climb out of the window.

DON'T USE THE DOOR

THEY'RE WATCHING IT

it wasn't that you didn't believe him, this was a hundred percent a scenario you should have seen coming. the higher ups would take advantage of any situation if it meant gaining an advantage over a curse. what you were doubtful again, was the sukuna part.

you don't think too much as you sneak out, not wanting to make yuuji wait out in the cold. you wear a jacket and rush out into the chilly night, being extra careful not to make any sound.

you spot him pacing back and forth besides the fountain. once he hears you coming, he lifts his head. the next moment he was dragging you by the wrist to a more scheduled spot in the garden.

"yuuji what—"

he shushes you, until you reach the location hidden by overgrown trees and vines. "we can't risk anyone seeing us together," yuuji says. "we can't anyone see you near him."

"i got that, but why? what happened?"

"by the ocean's might she was reaped. the devil's claw invincible after an era of peace. the skies welcomed his calamity. against the cruel sorcerers he swore his wrath. the world shall never again know peace shall she be reborn.''

the words were suddenly spoken from yuuji's cheek.

yuuji only nods. as if you were supposed to understand what that meant.

"what does that even mean?" you cross your arms over your chest. and when yuuji only looks as confused as you, you frown.

"this is what megumi and nobara overheard, and sukuna is saying—"

"so you don't know what it mean?"

"no. but he does."

"so tell him to explain!!"

"he won't, unless i let him out."

"let him out then!" you finally retort. you see yuuji falter, you understand his hesitance. but if sukuna wanted to hurt you, he would have already, wouldn't he?

"okey, okey. just be careful alright?" he sends you a stern look. all you could so is nod as you prepare yourself for another showdown with the king of curses.

and once he stands before you in all his glory, you realize this is a bit easier than last time. after all, he was the one who wanted to see you.

"i thought you said, 'never seek me out again'" you make a terrible impression of his previous order.

a big mistake.

you blink and you're pushed on the ground, his hand wrapped around your throat. he was only lightly squeezing, but with his intimidating form leering over you, his fangs barred inches away from your face, you can't help the fear that crawls into your senses.

"know your place, brat." he whispers into your ear. goosebumps erupt against your skin. you can't believe how fast he was, you didn't even see him coming.

you glare at him, trying to wiggle out, but he overpowered you compeltely.

"let me go," you meekly say, looking up into his eyes.

he had already been staring at you intensely, no, not you. your lips. you suck in a shaky breath. in this compromising position, it wasn't difficult to assume what he was thinking about.

"what are you doing?" your voice, barely a whisper.

and then his eyes look up at you, focused on you. "if you'll allow me, i'll make you remember."

you don't know how to answer because you don't understand what he's saying. you also can't form words, they stay, stuck in your throat. and he can see you’re confused, so he decides to show you what he meant.

he leans his whole body in. his breath fans your face. his presence consumes you, he was everywhere. you couldn’t nt ignore it even if you wanted, how his lips were grazing yours, how you knew if you didnt stop this—

you turn your face away. "no!"

"you don't really have a choice, sweetheart."

and you really don't know what he's going to do to you. and you're really scared. and you're trapped, and helpless. and you're wondering why yuuji isn't switching back. you can only close your eyes and await what's to come.

you were expecting a lot of things, but sukuna gently kissing you wasn't one of them.

his rough lips move against yours. a small peck, at first, as if testing, and when you relax into his touch, (a rush of warmth curses through you, as if this is exactly where you need to be), he molds his lips on yours. his hands that had left your neck land softly on your cheeks, in your hair.

and when his gentle ministrations continue, you finally understand what he meant.

you think he had imbued some cursed energy into the kiss, because suddenly the memories come crashing on you.

you see yourself, but not quite you, loving him. not his human form, no. you had loved him as a curse. you see yourself living with him, chastising him against hurting humans. and he listens. for a decade you lived together.

until he had gotten you pregnant. and that's when the jujutsu sorceress of that era had come together. they had ignored your dallying with the curse because it had benefitted them. the biggest threat to them had been tamed by you, after all.

by when they heard news of your condition it was decided. you could not bring his child into the world. a hybrid, an abnormality. they couldn't risk this unpreceded situation from unfolding.

and so they drowned you when sukuna was away, with your unborn child. sukuna came back to find your body floating lifeless ashore. and the sorceress ambushed him then.

in his grief he was overpowered, and despite killing every last one of them, he was still sealed away.

when the vision stop and you're back to reality, you come face to face with a sukuna watching you intently, with concern flashing on his face.

tears were streaming down your face.

"the world shall never again know peace shall she be reborn.'' he whispers. "a mother's wrath born and unseen, awaiting endless moon cycles to be unleashed."

"that's the rest of the prophecy." he pulls away completely, leaving you lying there, consumed by an overwhelming feeling of grief. "they believe you will avenge what happened once i restore your memories, this is why they're discussing what to do with you."

sukuna might have pulled away, doing nothing but staring as your tears fell, but it was taking him everything not to wrap his arms around you, to comfort you and tell you he'll never let those bastards touch you. never again.

and then you sit up and look at him, with those big eyes he had once worshipped. you don't say anything, processing what he had just told you.

the elders want you dead because of a baseless 'prophecy'? how absurd. how utterly foolish.

but you can't help but be scared. they had killed you once. or, even if that wasn't really you, it certainly felt like it. you rub your shoulders, trembling and whimpering.

and then sukuna can't hold back anymore. he makes his way to you, and takes both your hands with his. he squeezes tightly, tighter than he intended.

"no one will hurt you again, or i'll kill them." he says, and watches as your eyes widen, as the tension in your shoulders dissipates, even if by just a little.

because you know. you can feel the truth in his world. he was't going to let anyone harm you ever again. and you weren't sure if that thought ought to comfort you or scare you to the bone.

a/n: i might do a part 2??? there’s just so much sexual tension between them that deserves to be….written about XD
