A Place To Belong (Book #1)

Chapter 4

 Previously... 

        After sometime hanging with Rin's new friends, Both Itadori and Rin exchanged phone numbers. Both of them are glad to make a new friend...

Continuing...

        Rin went back to his room and put his sword down and sat on his bed. He took out his phone and saw Itadori's contact number there. Rin smiled. But then frowned. What would happen, if he did too. Found out Rins secret? Would he also leave him? Rin hoped not. Rin put his phone away when it made a notification sound. Rin walked back to his phone and saw it was from Itadori. 

      Rin was surpried, he thought he'd be doing something else. But nonetheless, Rin responded to his message.
   
      Turns out Itadori was just bored and needed to bother someone. They both chatted away, they talked about hobbies, likes, dislikes, all that stuff.

      Itadori sent a message about what Rin wanted to be when he grows fully into a adult.

       Rin felt his heart sank. How would he explain that Rin had a limited amount of time left to live until he gets his flames under control?

        He just answered with a:

     'I dunno, I wanted to be an exorcist to kick demons a$$es, but now I'm not so sure...'

        Rin sent the message. Rin looked outside to see the sun already staring to set. Then his phone buzzed. Rin looked at the message that Itadori sent.

      "Really? I heard that most exorcists do kick demons a$$es, but what changed your mind?"

      Rin sighed.

     'Hard to explain, I'll tell you when I feel comfortable with it, but what about u?'

     Rin was quite curious about him. What class was Itadori in that was so small?

      "Me? Easy, a Jujutsu Sorcerer"

     Was the message that Itadori sent.

      A Jujutsu Sorcerer? What was that?

     'If u don't me asking, what's a Jujutsu Sorcerer?'

     Rin asked.

     Rin was indeed interested in the term. To be honest, it sounds a lot cooler than an exorcist.

    Rins phone buzzed, meaning he got a message from Itadori.

    "A Jujutsu sorcerer? Uh, okay, I guess its fine if I tell you, okay, so Jujutsu sorcerers are Like individuals who are trained and employed by
two jujutsu teachers to defend humanity from cursed spirits y'know? Something along those lines"

     This new information peaked Rins interest.

    'Curses spirits? So like demons?'

     "I honestly sometimes forget the difference if they have any or not, but oh well"

     'How do you "Jujutsu sorcerers" handle these "cursed spirits"?'

     Rin just had to ask. He was sitting at the edge of his bed.

     Itadori told Rin all the information he knew could tell about the Jujutsu sorcerers and the cursed spirits.

     Rin was so interested in this, he wondered how he should sign up for it....
      
     If he even could....

     Then Itadori went and asked Rin about exorcist, since Rin wanted to be one. Or used to want to be one of them.

     So in return for the information Itadori told him, Rin told him the equal amount of information.

    And before they knew it, it was almost midnight.

    "I gotta head to bed Rin, u should too, remember you gotta give us a tour around your school :)"

    It honesty had slipped his mind.

    'Oh yea, thanks for reminding me, yeah, let's go to bed, before my brother scolds me for being up so late -~-'

    "Haha, okay, see u in the morning?"

     Itadori asked. Rin smiled, looking at the message.

     'Yea, see you tomorrow'

[Next day]

      This time, Rin woke up before Yukio, Rin silently got ready, grabbed his sword and phone, and left, not without Kuro on his shoulder, wanting to join.

       Rin walked out of campus and into town. It was quiet as barely any markets were open. Rin went to an open one and bought breakfast for both Kuro and Rin.

       Rin didn't know why, but he couldn't wait to see Itadori and the people he was with. They seem like nice people.

[With Itadori]

    
    Itadori sighed as he put his phone next to him. He looked up at the roof. Itadori didn't know if he should or shouldn't get too attached to his new friend.

   Why?

       Well, just like Rin....

He also has a time limit to live....
