my exhaustion must be blurring the lines between real and fake and if it's not that, then it's definitely my clairvoyance showing me the other side for some reason, because there's no way in hell, that you, Yuji Itadori, are alive, stood smiling and posing in a box in front of all of us as if nothing happened, as if you weren't dead for two whole fucking months.

"Uhm guys, I think I can see a.. ghost?" I manage to spit out, my tone making it seem more like a question- slowly pointing to where he's stood, the ghost now turns to look at me, happier than I ever seen him even compared to when he was alive.

"Nope, it's your dear friend Yuji Itadori! Back from the dead!" Gojo sings, presenting Yuji with jazz hands as if he's his assistant in a magic act and Gojo's the magician.

I look to Megumi and Kugisaki and reassuringly they are equally as shocked, eyes wide, their friend's back from the dead? Yuji looks as if he wants to crawl into a hole, whining to Gojo that no ones reacting how his teacher said they would. I'm still not too sure how to react, I mean how is anyone supposed to react if someone they knew comes back from the dead and they act as if they weren't even dead in the first place?

I'm confused, angry, shocked but relieved.So fucking relieved, because he's not dead, not anymore at least.

The Tokyo students are stood in a room together, revising their final plan before heading out to the first activity of the event, Yuji is talking to Maki right now, discussing his role, you've still not spoke to him yet. What exactly are you supposed to say? Once you guys entered the side meeting, Kugisaki made him hold a funeral portrait frame considering you all were told he was dead, though you weren't really too sure where she got it from, but you didn't question it, she seemed annoyed as it was with Yuji.

"Hey it's kinda hot in here, let's go outside." Kugisaki and the others begin walking out, but you chose to stay inside, telling them you quickly needed the toilet, but you stayed in that room, wanting some peace. But one person stayed behind.

"So.. am I gonna get my hello hug?" Yujis' voice echoes words of the past, as he pokes your shoulder, trying to get you to turn around.

"You were dead, for two whole months Itadori. Dead people don't just come back to life." Y/Ns voice breaks.you couldn't look at him, angry he was acting as if he didn't get his heart ripped out, you also couldn't face the shocked look you knew he had from you using his last name.

"I guess I'm the first?" Yuji nervously chuckles, not too sure what to do or how to resolve this. 

"I thought I lost you for good Yuji." The girl sits down in defeat, her face in the palms of her hands, trying to hide her face as she's on the verge of tears and doesn't want him to see her cry. 

There was silence, it wasn't entirely uncomfortable, Yuji stares at your vulnerable state, he saw before that your eyes were puffy and you had eyebags, anyone would be able to tell you haven't had a whole nights worth of sleep in a while and he felt ashamed, knowing he was to blame. 

Yuji wishes he ignored Gojo and came to you straight away to tell you he's alive like his heart screamed at him to do, he really wanted to. After waking up all he wanted to do was go to you. The past two months he asked Gojo about you almost every day, Yuji couldn't wait to see you, even though he didn't know the exact reason why that was. 

The pink haired boy sits down next to you, explaining what happened and that his memory was a little fuzzy but he knew Sukuna had something to do with it.

 "I even rewatched insidious for you." You manage to laugh a little seeing him pull away in excitement.

"That's awesome! I really wanted to talk about the end with you and now I can!" there's a  shimmer in his eyes, the joy you really missed seeing everyday. "After this event, let's have another sleepover, okay?"

"Mhm, sounds good to me."

Now that Yuji was back, she wouldn't let him go so easily again. For some reason his return lit a fire beneath the girl, encouraging her to get stronger, faster, able enough to keep him safe from anything that puts him in harms way. You'd do anything to protect him,
