When you call my name
When you love me gently
When you're walking near me
"You're gonna catch a cold like this, Utahime~" the teen boy teased like usual. They were on a mission together during winter, Gojo was wearing proper winter clothing, while Utahime was wearing her usual attire.
"I will not, And call me Utahime senpai!" She growled, 'don't start with me already!' she thought
He laughed at this, then reached into his bag and pulled out a red scarf, and handed it to her
"Here, this is for you, I knitted it myself!" He announced proudly, despite Utahime clearly not being fond of him, Gojo couldn't help but like her, she was one of the few people who didn't treat him like a God, like some being that should be loved and cherished at all costs, and though he liked it when people did that, he also appreciated when people would treat him as just another human being, and Utahime did that all the time.
".... Thank you" her demeanor much calmer now, she put it on and continue walking, Gojo making sure to walk right next to her
He began spreading his arms, "Hey, if you're still feeling cold I can keep you wa-"
Utahime placed her hand on his lips
"No, don't even finish that sentence" Utahime said with a secret smile and small blush
Doo Doo Wah
I'm in really love with you
==============================
When you look at me
I open up instantly
I fall in love so quickly
They attended a baseball game together, Utahime had won 2 tickets for free through a raffle, and noone else could go with her, except for Gojo, Utahime at first insisted she'd go alone, but Gojo insisted even more to take him with her, she eventually relented.
It did not go as expected, but in a good way! Utahime completely expected her game experience to be ruined by Gojo's antics, but surprisingly, he behaved! He did order a concerning amount of hot dogs, but that was fine, he even bought some for her too.
Utahime's favorite team won, and in excitement she hugged Gojo, which surprised him
"Woah Utahime! Save that for when we're married~" he teased
She immediately blushed and let go of him, turning away from him she yelled "as if! I pity the poor woman who will ever call you her husband!"
Though the smile on her face was visible to everyone but Gojo
Doo Doo Wa
I'm in really love with you
================================
All night beside you I'd lay
I love you deep when you come to my bed
Utahime was injured, badly
The mission had gone wrong, and although they won, she had taken the brunt of the damage, she received a big scar on her face, as well as being in a coma for a few days.
Gojo lost it upon hearing about it, he was mad that the curse responsible for it had already been taken care of, because he wanted to torture it and ensure it died a slow agonizing death.
The best he could do now is support Utahime, and that he did, he would bring flowers to her, and sleep in a chair in the room with her, for he refused to leave her side.
Utahime eventually woke up, Gojo naturally was the first to find out he immediately ran out to grab the doctor, the doctor came in and cleared Utahime, she was fine, all fine, except for...
"This fucking scar... Ugh..." Utahime said with disgust, she wasn't mad that it hurt, she was mad at how it looked on her
"Don't worry Utahime! I still think you're the prettiest girl in this entire damn school!" He laughed, making Utahime blush a bit
"S-shut up! I'm gonna find a way to cover it up" she said irritated a bit
"Don't! I think you look cool as shit, wear it proudly as a sign of a strong sorcerer the beats big strong cursers" he said with genuine admiration... 'completely badass' Gojo thought
"Thanks I guess... By the way, why were you there when I woke up" she said completely dismissing the elephant in the room which was Gojo praising her.
He was taken aback by this it seems "I.. wanted to see my favorite senpai wake up!... and make sure that she was ok, by the way, all of these are for you!" He got up and picked up all the flowers he had brought and handed them to her.
"Umm... Thank you..."
"Welp, anyway uhhh yeah! You're pretty, your scar is cool as shit, keep it!" Gojo quickly made his way out of the room, though Utahime could've sworn he was blushing.
Doo Doo Wa
I'm in really love with you
==============================
I'm not an easy man
To overstand, you feel me
But girl you're patient with me
"Oh fuck, I can't handle alcohol y'all" Gojo whined
He was only 2 bottles of beer in and he was acting like he had taken 10 shots. He had been invited to hang out with Nanami Shoko Utahime and Mei, and he didn't want to be left out, so he decided to have some drinks too
Utahime giggled "I'd never expect that from the strongest sorcerer, turns out your weakness is just alcohol, I'll have to keep that in mind"
Gojo turned to Utahime, who was sitting across from him, he immediately grabbed her hands tightly, surprising Utahime
"Hiiiimeeee...!! I'm so sorryyy" he began to say over and over again with a seemingly genuine tone
"It's okay, You can let go now" she said now a little annoyed
"No! I mean it! I'm sorry! For everythiiiiiin!!" He insisted
"What? Everything?"
"Yeah! All my insults, all my pranks, my attitude as a whole.... I'm sorry Utahime senpai... Fuck! Honestly, you're a stronger person than me Utahime... If I was you I would've fucking ran far away from here if it meant no longer dealing with my annoying ass... FUUUUUCK!!" He cried
Utahime didn't know how to feel, never in her life did she expect Gojo to apologize for anything, or even declare her as strong, let alone say sorry for his constant bullying of her and calling her senpai!
Everyone began to look at them now with amused faces, some pulled their phones out to record, and others began making 'ooohh!' sounds as it looks like Gojo was starting to reveal his true feelings
Gojo turned to everyone in tears, "Guys! I've been an asshole! Dammit! I promise I'll try to do better" he put his head down and continue to cry.
About 10 seconds into his fit of tears he stopped, lifted his head up, now seeming more composed, until he slapped himself, hard. It shocked everyone, what the hell is he doing? They thought
"Get ahold of yourself Satoru, Utahime is watching.... Oh hi Utahime!" he waved at her with a goofy smile
Utahime was blushing now, he wanted to look cool in front of her or something?
"Alcohol sucks... I don't know how you guys do this so often... Fuck I'm gonna barf... Guys move out the way"
He quickly made his way out the booth they were in and made his way to the restroom, everyone was still processing what the hell just happened.
"Well... That was something..." said Shoko still shocked
"I always thought he had a thing for you Utahime senpai, and since he's a child in a man's body his teasing was his stupid little way of showing that he likes you" chimed in Nanami
"Who wants to place bets on what happens next?" Mei Mei asked laughing
"Nothing's gonna happen next, he'll forget about all of this tomorrow, and will likely denied it ever happening if we bring it up" Utahime said as she took a big swig of her drink, a tone of sadness in her face.
'Damn, these 2 are utterly hopeless' thought everyone
A few minutes passed and everyone was ready to leave, Gojo stumbled his way out of the bathroom and caught up with everyone, swearing up and down that he'd never drink alcohol again.
He ended up in the same Taxi as Utahime, something she was too nervous about, and made sure to be as far away from him as possible, even though they were both in the backseat.
A few minutes into the ride Gojo put his head on Utahime's shoulder, this made her flinch, but then he began to mumble random shit, which made her laugh a little, poor guy was losing his mind.
"Utahime..." He groaned
"Yes?"
"Thank you, for putting up with all of my shit..... You are... So awesome..."
Utahime blushed once again, and sat her head on top of his.
Doo Doo Wa
I'm in really love with you
=============================
All night I wish for you here
Lay your head beside my hip
Oh how I love the little things you do
They knew married life was something that would be difficult.
They were very busy people, and only got to see each other for about a few hours a day, sometimes they would even go to bed alone.
Utahime couldn't help but feel as if they were growing distant, she was fine with being separated at first, but eventually it becomes too much to handle, she wanted to be with her husband.
She confronted him about it one day.
"I just can't help but feel like we're drifting apart, we barely ever have food together, we are rarely in the house at the same time, I'm just so..." She was crying now
Gojo immediately embraced her, as she collapsed in his arms she continued to pour her heart out to him.
"W-What if... Your love fades..." She said in between sniffs
"Don't ever say that, my love for you burns as bright as the day you said yes to marrying me, I will never stop loving you until I'm a fucking corpse, and you know that Utahime"
"I believe you! I really do, but still, I can't handle the loneli-" she was cut off by a kiss the 2 collapsed on the couch and Gojo ran his hands through her hair and began caressing it, Utahime felt happy and sad at the same time, happy that Gojo still cared about her truly, and that they were acting like a couple again, but sad that even though this was happening, there really wasn't anything to do, they had no plans for today.
"And if you find somebody else to do something with?" She asked, scared.
"I rather do nothing with you, than do something with somebody else"
This made Utahime cry again, but this time, tears of joy, God, she loved this man!
"Dammit, since when do you have such a way with words?" She laughed as she wiped tears from her eyes
"When you have a very talkative and educated wife, you tend to pick stuff like that up" he answered with a goofy grin, before connecting their lips together again, he grabbed the remote and turned the TV on.
"Wanna watch some movies?"
"Yes, yes i do" she smiled
Doo Doo Wah
I'm in really love with you!
