Chapter 30
Slowly, day by day, then week by week. They slowly began to recall.
However it would be nearly three weeks in when something happened. They were eating lunch when Ryomen froze oddly. "This… just came to me but… is the reason why Satoru and I are brothers in law is because we are married to someone?"
Chusi nodded. "Yes," she said and smiled.
"Have I been cheating on my wife?!" he asked in bewildered tone.
Satoru froze to this too, realizing that could be the case for him as well.
"Well, in all honesty, no." said Yua. "Since you had lost your memories, we were told not to say anything to try and jumpstart it. But, Ryomen. Chusi is your wife… Satoru, you're my husband… and not to worry, the child I carry is yours." She said gently.
There came this odd look on their faces… then… they both started to foam at the mouth before passing out! "Satoru!"
"Ryomen!"
"Ladies!" Yua and Chusi froze as Celine came rushing towards them with other staff members. They were quick to take Satoru and Sukuna away to the medical bay.
"Are they okay?" Yua asked.
Celine smiled. "In fact they are, I have never seen someone reject the water that fast before…"
"Reject the water?" they asked.
Celine explained when one drinks the water of Lethe, they cannot expel it as usual water. For the properties don't disappear when they have entered a body. "It takes a month or so for the body to reject it, but your husbands are doing so far faster than any other before them. I would give them 24 hours, they should be back to their normal selves by then… you two certainly had fun, didn't you?" Celine asked as her eye shot to Chusi.
She blushed at the notion. "Sorry… I take it we are not the first?"
"Far from it… however… we do have a favor to ask of you and your husband…"

"Ugh… my head… I haven't felt like this since I experienced drunkenness for the first time…" Sukuna's head tossed and turned on the pillow, until he peered up and looked about the room. He was in a sterile place… a hospital room by the looks of it, and yet was rather disgusted as he had drooled all over the pillow. "What the hell…" he muttered.
Six Eyes came too shortly after as well. "Ow, ow, ow…" he said holding his head. "Why do I feel like I got punched through a building by you no less?"
"If I had done so, I am proud of it." Sukuna snapped back, but his head was pulsing. "What happened? I don't remember much…"
"Me either… maybe it's for the best?"
They were silent until a fae came into the room. He was a wolf like man with deer horns, reading over the charts he nodded. "It appears your bodies have expelled the water that you drank from the spa of forgetfulness… next time, when we tell you not to drink the water… DON'T!" he scolded them.
"Drink the water?" Sukuna muttered.
"What the hell is he talking about?" Six Eyes muttered back.
"Anyways, gentlemen, with the minor memory loss, you are good to go and return to your wives. It must have been odd for you two sharing a room, no? Then again, Celine said you two were acting like brothers oddly enough… perhaps you needed memory loss to find common ground? Either way, you are free to leave when you are ready… don't do this again!" he warned.
When the door closed, Six Eyes reached over to Sukuna and extended his pinky finger. "What the hell is this?" Sukuna demanded.
"Pinky swear, we never speak of this."
Sukuna glared at him. "I prefer a binding vow."
"Look" Satoru turned and glared him. "Never in my life have I EVER broken a pinky swear! This is more sacred to me than a damn binding vow and neither one of us can make one at the moment. Take it or leave it!"
He… is oddly upfront about this. "I'll choose to believe you this one time, sorcerer." With a sigh, Sukuna made a pinky swear with Satoru Gojo. Neither one will ever bring this up again or use as leverage over the other.

They came out of the medical ward.
Yua and Chusi had waited for them, yet, neither one of them were willing to speak about it. "You two okay?" Yua asked.
They only nodded their heads.
"Want something to eat? How about a hearty lunch?" Chusi asked.
"I could eat" Sukuna said.
"Yeah, that does sound good." Satoru replied.
Wow… it's the first thing they have ever agreed upon!
Yua smiled and nodded as they led them back to the dining hall. They were silent all the way there, not speaking a word about what had happened. "We… we're sorry…"
She paused as that apology came out of Sukuna!
Yua turned and saw him peering away embarrassed. "Very sorry," said Satoru.
Chusi froze to this as well. "What are you apologizing for?" she asked.
"Well, this WAS suppose to be our honeymoons and we went and did something stupid…" Satoru explained.
"I'm sure HE did something stupid, I let my guard down…"
"MOVING ON!" Yua scolded. "Be that as it may, believe it or not. We still had a wonderful time," she explained.
The two froze.
"How?!" they questioned.
They were giggling, Yua even broke out into a fit of laughter as she explained. "When you two lost your memories, you had no idea who we are… you spent the better part of your time, flirting with us!" Chusi said as she gave a wink to Sukuna.
He froze to this. "I was flirting?" he asked in a bewildered tone. "I don't think I am capable of such a thing, I don't care to do as such unless I am showing off my power…" he said offhandedly.
"Well, some of Satoru's better dating tips did come from you" Yua teased.
"WHAT!" Gojo demanded. "Oh come on Yua, now you have to be kidding me!" he protested and even laughed about it.
She, however didn't laugh.
Sukuna on the other hand…
He was trying not to laugh at Satoru… but that failed miserably.
He kept snickering until they reached the dining hall… until he erupted. "BAHAHAHAHAHA! SIX EYES CAN'T DATE WORTH SHIT!"
It was loud enough for everyone to hear.
Satoru was about to snap back until…
"HEY! IT'S THE STREAKER!" The place was applauding Satoru for his sudden nudity from a few weeks ago. Apparently here, nothing that interesting ever happens… he has become immortalized now for his daring act.
"Why are they calling me the streaker?" he whispered to Yua.
"You lost a bet to Ryomen."
"And what was that bet?"
"We don't know, you two made it together. It must have involved us at one point or another…"
"This is becoming the best honeymoon ever…" Sukuna said with a greedy grin on his face.
"Oh it gets better! We get to come back once a year!" Chusi explained.
"Huh? I didn't agree to that,"
"No, but I did, we get to take a long weekend here as long as we do… something special in their garden area…" she said and gave a coy grin.
His smile vanished. "Something special?" he asked in an uncertain tone.
"Our ban has been lifted for the time being as long as we go into the garden separately. Until they need us again for next year" she explained.
Sukuna was confused, so he let Chusi walk ahead before he grabbed Yua's shoulder… gently. Which took her aback, normally he is rough, but, he appears to be minding his strength. "Yua… what is she talking about?" he whispered. "You better tell me."
"Me too, I want in," said Satoru as he leaned in as well.
Yua sighed. "Well… you and Chusi decided to… have relations in the garden of the spa. They closed it down since you two were rather… loud according to the staff, at the same time, they didn't want other guest walking in on you two in the heat of the moment. They banned you shortly after… but that was lifted since well… I think after lunch, you may want to see for yourself."
"I don't remember what it looked like before." He said bluntly.
"Just… trust me, it doesn't matter." She said and waved off his concern.
"Are we seriously ignoring the fact that Sukuna and Chusi were doing the nasty in an open garden!?" Satoru demanded.
"Jealous?"
Yua was stunned that came out of Sukuna… then again, that shouldn't have been a surprise. "Anyway, that's the story right now…" she explained. "Let's have lunch."
