A/N: Hello. I'm back. Miss me? _0

My laptop's SSD died. All stories I've written and all drafts gone. And to repair it, I'll need to fork out close to $700 - $800, and this was not a 100% guarantee that the data within the SSD will be salvaged completely.

So I had to start everything again from scratch. I was really down and sad, and disappointed. So I took a rest for a few weeks off my laptop.

Hopefully, I'll be able to write up something awesome again about InumakixMaguro soon.

Thank you for the long wait, and thank you for your patience with me.

Love, A.615


71. Unwelcomed Spectator

There were no arguments. The fact that the Tokyo Jujutsu High clearly has better amenities than Kyoto's side is well known in Japan. All the big decisions are made here, and all the important figures will gather here to discuss whenever there's something major requiring the decisions of all the higher ups.

Namely, an Itadori Yuuji-kun that just came back alive and well. No thanks to Gojo Satoru, who was not supposed to hide his student from execution.

And so, it was after the meal that everyone returned to either their room, or they took the opportunity to walk around.

Nishimiya wandered the Tokyo Jujutsu High's student's dorm garden. It's a beautiful and tranquil place. Perfect for a dormitory. One can imagine the students returning to the dorm to wind down nicely after a hard day at practicing curses technique. The canteen was huge, with that much food 24 hours a day as well. Not to mention the sauna room that Kamo and Todo had gone towards to no sooner they settled down on their side of the student guest dorm side.

She couldn't return to her dorm. She bet Mai and Miwa would have been waiting. Mai especially. That one had no qualms on jabbing the painful fact that Inumaki Toge already have a girlfriend.

And it wasn't her.

Nishimiya bite her lips in frustration.

If only she had made the right decision back then.

She could have chosen Tokyo. She could have. But she went ahead with Kyoto because teacher was a woman. She didn't want to be one of the few girls in a college where there's only Hakari as a classmate and an eccentric sorcerer as a teacher.

How was she to know Inumaki Toge would join Tokyo Jujutsu High? And in return for that choice, less choices to pick on the boys.

During the event last year, the rest of the Tokyo side went to Kyoto for the event. But due to the large gap of prowess difference Yuuta brings with his Special Grade qualification, he was the only one that got to join whilst the rest of his classmates cheered on at the sides.

She had met Inumaki then. But then, he was just a boy who can't even converse normally while talking sushi with a Cursed Doll.

But it was back then. She didn't know Inumaki Toge was a catch. She would have stayed.

Frustrated with her poor choice that had her ended up here today, Nishimiya picked a shiny stone that lines up a small garden plot by the window of one of the dorm rooms and chucked it out towards the small pond underneath a huge Sakura tree.

She frowned when she thought just how unfair this all was.

Tsukigami Maguro. At the thought of the new girl that's now standing next to Inumaki Toge, Nishimiya frowned even harder.

Picking up another shiny stone, she threw it again into the pond. This was just too much.

She met him first. She could have liked him first. They could have been together first.

Her frown deepened sadly as she gazed at the shiny stone in her hand. Damn, even the stones are pretty here.

Until a sound brings her back from her depressing thoughts.

"T-Toge…Toge…!"

It was clear enough someone was calling out to Toge. Did something happened? Are they under attack? They had just narrowly escaped death from that attack in the afternoon by a bunch of Special Grade Curses. Had they come to finish off what they've started?

Nishimura had half the mind to run back and get her team mates to help search around when she again heard his name being called out.

And this time, a hot blush came over her.

"T-Toge…please…"

It was obvious what they were doing. And she had a good guess who that person was.

Tsukigami Maguro, for sure. With Inumaki Toge together. Doing what a couple would do.

Hot fire razes through her blood as the jealousy strikes where it hurts the most.

She looked for the source of the sound. She couldn't help it. Curiosity riding high on her mind list right now. Though yes, she knew it would hurt her, but if she can put an end to these wretched jealous feelings she has right now, might as well go ahead with it.

Each dorm room comes with a sizable room and bathroom, though the students can choose to bath at the Bath House located within the dorm area if they wish to. And within each dorm, there's a sizable window from ceiling to floor length, each equipped like a sliding glass door that allows them to enjoy the beautiful garden Gojo had made the principal renovate for them the year he joined Tokyo Jujutsu High as a teacher.

Stress relief for the students, he had said with a grin then.

And it was through this floor length glass windows that she is able to see, there was one that was left with a small gap, and the curtains aren't fully pulled over, allowing outsiders that stood directly outside of the window to be able to see through everything.

The moment Nishimiya stepped right outside of the window, she could see and feel everything. White hot rage, jealousy, sadness and disappointment.

Inumaki wrapped his arms around the Tsukigami girl possessively, while his other hand is buried underneath her shirt. His hips were rocking between Maguro's legs, while hers were wrapped around the back of his thigh and one up his waist in a very compromising position.

"I want you, Toge-kun… I can't wait…" she had said, whimpering in a high pitched voice that seemed to spur Inumaki more as he slides his other hand down her legs and inches forward to between their bodies.

She didn't know how to run. She was just rooted to the ground, eyes wide and staring at the scene in front of her. The boy that she had liked was already someone else's.

And it was precisely because she choose to stay rooted to the spot, mayhem was bound to happen.

Maguro's eyes opened, and she locked eyes with hers.

Fuck, she had muttered, her heart pounded in her chest as she stumbles back on her feet to back away from the scene.

But it was too late.

The Snake and Fang user was alerted by his surprised girlfriend.

"Ni-Nishimiya!" Maguro squeaked, her eyes wide with shock, her hands becomes jittery and shakes as the adrenaline that rushes through her veins from Inumaki's passionate advance towards her and the shock at seeing a spectator towards their making out had her shaking Inumaki off in a panic. Had she been standing there all these whiles? Looking at the way she is standing so close to the window, she could clearly see that Nishimiya's face is burned bright red with shame, embarrassment, and the desire to just turn invisible right at this moment.

Being caught red handed in Inumaki Toge's room is a big deal, especially more so with one of his hands up her shirt and him in a compromising position.

He was about to comply with Maguro's request at that too.

He could feel his hard on disappear swiftly as he realizes just what had happened.

An unwelcome spectator. Standing right outside his window. Daringly.

The fuck is wrong with this girl? Inumaki thought to himself in disgust when he saw Nishimiya stumbling on her foot. Why is she wherever I am with Maguro?

All Nishimiya saw was a blur, and seconds later, Inumaki was right in front of his window.

His collar was down. His hair is still wet, and she knew he just came back from the sauna room, seeing as Fushiguro and Itadori are still hanging out at the dorm common room and they talked about how fair Inumaki's backside is. Inumaki's lips looked swollen, and he looked plenty angry.

Angry and disgusted. With red in his eyes.

She has never seen an angry Inumaki Toge before. It scared her, and it saddens her.

It shouldn't be like this. They shouldn't be like this.

Nishimiya's tears welled up as her heart clenched painfully. This…This…

"This wasn't fair…" she sniffed out a whisper.

Before she could say anything else, Inumaki opened his mouth and spoke.

The silver sound of a bell rang out in her mind. Images of the Snake and Fang mark on Inumaki's mouth and tongue seemed to come alive, striking towards her in snake-like agility.

Darkness swallowed her without warning.

She didn't feel anything. She couldn't feel anything.

No longer feel anything. For that person.

Wait, she thought to herself. For who again?

Was there even someone she likes?

And the next thing she knew, she woke up in her bed in the guest dorm room.

The bright sunlight streams in through the window as the light morning breeze blew in. Ahh, what a lovely day, Nishimiya thought to herself with a smile.

No more sadness. No more crush.

A brand new day had just started for Nishimiya Momo.
