《That bakery girl [Gojoxreader]》Light
Advertisement
The music coming from the TV was the only sound in your living room. You were sitting on the couch spaced out thinking about everything. Maybe it really was the time for a change. How bad can it be? You can make new friends and experience and if you don't like it you will just come back. So what's holding you back? Fear? Doubt? Past? Future? Going to this jujutsu school definitely means you will be fighting curses. Apparently stronger than the ones in your village. That's not scary at all. To you what's scary is the fact you are killing or exorcising a living being just like you. But you can't forgive the curse for hurting other people. Tho is it possible for a curse to have a change of heart? You didn't know.
The sound of boiling water snapped you out of your thoughts. You quickly got up and made tea. As soon as you finished the tea you heard the doorbell ring. You opened the door to your boss and caretaker.
"Hello Chihiro-san!!"you smile brightly at the grandma. You never understood how whenever you call her for some tea and cake, she arrives exactly when the tea is finished. You were too afraid to ask. "Hello dear, I must say you certainly know how to cheer up an old lady's day."Chihiro-san loved the cake you make, even if she was the one who taught you how to make them. Of course you practised for a long time to perfect your cakes. You are very satisfied with your skill now.
"Thank you Chihiro-san, I'm sorry for leaving you to finish the job yesterday..." considering you had quite a day you were still thoughtful about Chihiro-san. She is the person you trust the most and it will stay like that forever."Don't be silly, you are talking to an expert here! I simply did everything quickly and served the customers for the rest of the day!"it is possible you got your enthusiasm from Chihiro-san. You always admired people who can stay positive no matter the situation. But firstly you have other things you want to talk about...
"Chihiro-san, I want to tell you something..." you were cautious. Not because you doubted Chihiro-san, you just didn't want to be rude. "Of course dear, is everything alright?"silence filled the room for a few seconds. You were thinking through everything. "I met someone... or actually more people. They are sorcerers and they are from Tokyo. I met them while I was walking home and they were exorcising a curse. So when I came close a curse went towards me but one of them stopped the curse. I thanked them and wanted to leave but one of them caught my cursed energy and he seemed very happy with that."the look Chihiro-san gave you wasn't surprising really.
"How did he see your cursed energy? Were you not hiding it??"yes Chihiro-san is a sorcerer as well. She left the cursed world to marry a man she loved. You admired her a lot for that. To leave everything to be and do what you love. So you knew she could help you with your situation. "I was, not as much as usual, but he still wouldn't have been able to see it. He told me he had the ability to see other creature's cursed energy..."The thought of that was amazing. Except you, you didn't know anyone who could sense curse energy. "Hmm, do you remember his name??"Chihiro-san asked as she drank her tea. "Yeah I remember his last name... It's Gojo uhhh Gojoo-"

"Gojo Satoru?"Chihiro-san interrupted with a gasp. "Yea, it was Gojo Satoru!! Do you know him maybe??"She quickly recovered and smiled softly. "Everybody in the jujutsu world knows him. I won't tell you much but you should be cautious around him"she said as she laughed. "So let me guess, he offered you to go to Jujutsu Tech school?"your eyes widened. "Y-Yea he did, how did you know? I wanted to ask you about that..."the look on your face told Chihiro-san everything. "You should go..."she said. "But-"she quickly interrupted. "Y/n, it's about time you leave this village... You have a future ahead of you and spending it in this lonely village is not something I want for you. And there's no need to worry about curses in Tokyo. You are strong, stronger than you think. You can handle any curse there or anywhere in the world. And i'm sure you will meet wonderful people you will cherish for the rest of your life. And you don't have to think about the bakery. I was thinking about hiring some new people since the work is well. All I will ask of you is a call when you feel like it and to not forget about me."she said warmly. You got really emotional. You didn't know what to say. You were thankful for everything. You became a better person because of everyone in your life. Before you knew it you were smiling widely at the lady. Your answer was sure now. "Alright I will." You said happily.
"Lovely choice Y/n dear!"she said brightly. You continued talking until you finished your tea. While you were about to say goodbye to Chihiro-san you wrapped your arms around her. You were hugging her. The lady returned the gesture. "Thank you Chihiro-san... for everything. I will forever cherish our memories we spent together. I'm really gonna miss you..."before you knew it you were crying. You weren't good at goodbyes. You weren't Sam Smith after all. (. Chihiro-san hugged you tightly. She helped you calm down. "I'm gonna miss you too Y/n... But don't let the distance between us bring you down. I will always be here for you!" She patted your head as she said so.
When you said goodbyes you went back to your room. It wasn't really late so you quickly changed and went for a walk to your favourite spot. You wanted to say goodbye to the village your home. Nobody knew where it was, you went there to relax and rest.
On your way there you passed the small river, the little fields, some people you greeted warmly... As you were walking the night fell down.
The sound of warm wind and nature relaxed you. You liked the silence but you knew it wouldn't last long because...
"Hello Gojo-san!"you smiled brightly at the man behind you. Again you caught him before he could surprise you. "Hii Y/n party breaker...."he pouted at the end. You laughed at that. "I'm sorry Gojo-san but your presence is truly a feeling to behold."Gojo of course knew what you meant. He was annoyed your last conversation got finished early even tho it was far from finished. He had way too many questions for you. And of course Gojo being Gojo he had no problem asking you those questions. But he decided to wait for a little bit. "So what are you doing here Gojo-san?" You asked tilting your head a little bit. "Well I was helping Kugisaki with something in the hotel but then I felt like going for a walk because we were inside all day. Then I noticed you and wanted to greet you! And what about you??"he asked curiously.

"That's nice Gojo-san! I'm also going for a walk... I wanted to vent out for a little bit. Actually I'm going to my favourite place in the village! Would you like to go with me??"Usually you wouldn't invite people to your favourite place but considering it's your last day here, unless you come back of course, you wouldn't mind going with someone this time. Gojo seemed surprised at your question but he just brushed it off, thinking you always went with someone, even if it was complete opposite. And it's good it will be just the two of you so he could ask some questions.
"Of course, I'd love to! Lead the way then!" You were enjoying his bubbly personality. You didn't think much about his behaviour or his intentions now. Tho you were cautious because of Chihiro-san.
There was comfortable silence between you while you were walking but you decided to break it. "I... I am gonna go to Tokyo with you..."you said quietly. You were afraid he didn't hear you but then he turned his head towards you with a giant smile. "Aw hell yeah! Excellent choice Y/n! You'll see you will love it! I will make it very special experience for you! Is there anything you want to know?" "Absolutely everything!" You said brightly, he continued talking and you were listening with a smile as well. He told you everything you will do, the money, your room, about the first and the second years, about his work and so on.
You were walking through a forest now and you and Gojo felt comfortable in each other's presence. Gojo felt happy because very few people would actually listen to him without complaining or ignoring him. And you were completely interested in everything he had to say because it's all new to you.
When Gojo was talking about some sweets from a cafe you took him by the hand suddenly. He stopped talking and looked at you with widened eyes although you couldn't see it because of the blindfold. "I'm sorry for interrupting you Gojo-san but we made it to the place...You need to be quiet for just a moment..." you giggled quietly and led him to the place.
When you passed two trees Gojo saw almost nothing, it was too dark. Although he could see some tall grass in front of him. You let go of his hand he felt you tug on the sleeve of his uniform, gesturing him to sit down next to you on the spot. He did and he still couldn't see anything.
He was about to say something but you quickly put two fingers in front of his mouth almost touching them,giggling and telling him to be silent. He stayed silent and saw you take a small rock in your hand. You raised your hand and threw the rock in front of you. The sound of splashing was heard. Is there a lake here?? Gojo thought.
He didn't have to wait for long to find out. The suddenly dark place was getting brighter with different colors. There indeed was a lake in front of you. But Gojo was mesmerised by sudden bright glowing colors coming from the lake. As if that wasn't enough from the tall grass a yellow lights began flying around like small stars and the place wasn't dark anymore but filled with yellow lights around you and Gojo and rainbow colors from the lake. Gojo's mouth was opened and his eyes were wide as he looked around himself. Fireflies. They were flying around you two.
What brought Gojo out of his trance was small laughing and giggling from you. You were enjoying his expression even tho you couldn't see it entirely.
"It's beautiful isn't it?"you said as he moved his head towards you. He was about to answer but when he looked at you his breath got caught in his throat.
Your warm expression, your bright smile on display just for him, happy and relaxed aura, light from the fireflies complimenting your face and smile, but the most memorable thing of all, the rainbow colors from the lake reflecting in your red eyes. They were like thousand lights of colors dipped in a warm red. He could look at you forever like this. It was too much for Gojo. He hadn't felt this relaxed and warm for a while, no, probably ever in his life. Deeply inside he didn't want for this moment to end tho he wouldn't admit it to himself. He got lost in the view.
Gojo-san...
He didn't know what this feeling was. He didn't want for this feeling to end either. He didn't notice when he gently put his hand on your now blushing face. He stroked his thumb across your cheek. So warm and soft.
G-Gojo-san.
He wanted to know what this feeling was. It was warm, mixture of pleasure and sweetness. He had never felt like this. And he didn't want to stop either.
Gojo-san...
Has he ever actually felt happy in his life? Was this the first and maybe the last time he will ever feel like this? What was the reason he is feeling like this? If he knew the reason he could feel like this everyday... The reason is... it's... That's right... It's the person in front of him. Y/n... Does that mean... If he had Y/n by his side he could forever feel like this? If he had you all to himself he wouldn't feel lonely and depressed ever again? If you could make him feel like this does he need anything or anybody else in his life?? Y/n... He wants to feel like this everyday. He wants to see you smile all the time just for him. For him and him only. He-
Gojo came back to reality clenching his chest with his hand as you shook him by the shoulders with a worried expression on your face. He didn't realise you were closer to him now, a bright expression replaced by a worried one, and you were gently massaging his shoulders helping him relax. But the most important thing the feeling still didn't stop.
"Gojo-san are you ok?? I called you three times and you weren't answering! Are you feeling alright? Should we go to the doctors maybe? Please tell me what's wrong..." He didn't know what to say. This was the first time someone was actually worried about him... But quickly he recovered placing his hands on your shoulders and putting you back on your spot. He laughed nervously. Why was he nervous?? "N-No, Y/n, I'm alright I'm sorry for worrying you I just got lost in the view...That's all... There's no need to worry about me. Thank you for showing me, this place is amazing!" He smiled when he saw your worried expression again turn into a happy one. "You are very welcome Gojo-san! I'm happy I finally got to share this with someone... I never actually brought anyone here this was a place where all my troubles and problems went away..."you said warmly with a smile as you looked in front of you.
Despite the view around you, Gojo was still looking at you. He didn't take his eyes off of you. No... He couldn't take his eyes off of you. He very much enjoyed your presence. So much he never wanted to be without it. But all good things must come to an end. After some comfortable silence neither of you said anything just relaxed in the warm night.
"I think we should get back. Your students might be worried about you and I have to get ready for tomorrow right?" You said excitedly as you got up with Gojo quickly following. "Y-Yeah we should, we definitely should... It's a big day tomorrow after all!"he exclaimed happily as you cheered with him.
On the way back Gojo was talking about getting on a bus at 8am. Then getting on a train around 9am. You were excited since you were never in a train before. He also told you what to bring and gave you some advices. He couldn't help but wish you would take his hand in yours again. And he wasn't brave enough to do that himself. Here now you have the strongest shaman feared by the entire shaman world, getting flustered over hand holding.
You two got lost in the conversation it seemed like only seconds passed before you were in front of your house. You didn't notice the sad face Gojo made when you made it to your house.
"Thank you for walking me home again Gojo-san! I can't wait for tomorrow to come!"excitement was the word he would describe you with in this moment. He was also excited that you decided to come with them. The more shamans the better. And he felt bad knowing you would spent your life in this lonely village. So he will do everything in his power to not make you change your mind about the shaman world.
He chuckled lightly liking your enthusiasm. You are gonna need it for this to work. As if on reflex he patted your head gently. "Don't forget to get some rest as well. And you can bring whatever you want with you. We will be waiting for you at the bus stop tomorrow!"When he looked at you again closely he noticed you blushed a little but laughed softly afterwards. He didn't realise he was patting you for so long. He removed his hand and put it in his pocket clenching his fist.
"Will do Gojo-san! Then I will see you tomorrow! Bye bye!" You waved at him till you entered your house. He was also waving back with his other hand a small smile on his face.
He waited a couple of seconds thinking you might come out again like last time. But sadly you didn't. He turned around and felt the lovely feeling in his heart disappear. He frowned slightly at that. Suddenly he snapped realising he didn't ask you a single question he wanted. He got way too much distracted by you.
With that he made his way to the hotel making a note of you definitely answering his questions soon.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
