a shadow moved in the mist, there he was. gojo satoru. not real, not anymore. only moonlight & memory. his haori glowed faintly, his eyes too bright, cutting thru the dark. he looked like he alqays did, beautiful in a way that hurt
“yuuji” gobo said, voice low, like he was trying not to break something. “ur back again. why do u keep doing this to urself?”
yuujis jaw tigytened, the dicentra shaking in his hand. “bc ur mine, saroru. i feel u, even now. how can i stop coming when ur still here?” “then u left. im so pissed at u”
gojos form flickered, his mouth twisting into a sad half smile. “im not here yuuji. im a spirit. u gotta let go. live. find someone elde”
“someone else?” yuuji laughed. bitter & broken. how am i supposed to move on when i dont even know why ur gone!” he reached out, fingers slicing thru gojos hand, hitting nothing but cold air. it felt like a kmife to the heart
gojo crouched down, his eyes soft. “u were my home yuuji. u still are. the reason i kept going. but im a selfish bastard, arent i? i keep showing up, js to see u, even tho its kvlling us both”
yuuji eyes burned, tears spilling over. “then stay. be selfish. id rather have this than nothing. id rather hurt forevw than let u go”
gojo laugh was faint, barely there. “god yuuji. my beautiful yuuji. i cant stay. w/e out there, its pulling me away, bit by bit. everytime i come back, it takes more of me”
the wind kicked up, scattering leaves like promises nobody kept. yuuji pressed the dicentra against his chest, petals falling to the dirt. “if cant have u now, ill find u later. next life, next world, idc. ill track u down satoru”
gojos shape blurred, his voice barely a audible. “u dont need to hunt for me. im in the sunrise, in the night sky. the flowers that drop. live, yuuji. live so loud the stars get jealous. when its ur time, ill be waiting, under that tree where we said forever”
the mist swallowed gojo, leaving nothing but mint & silence. yuuji sank to his knees, forehead against the torii gate, choking on sobs the dicentra hit the ground, crushed. “forever”he muttered, a promise to a ghost, to a love that burned too bright to fade
the village didnt stir. nobody saw the kid who loved a man, who carried a bond bigger than life or in d3ath. yuuji would get up tmr, work the fields, fake a smile. but his heart would stay here, tied to this gate, to gojo satoru
