A Place To Belong (Book #1)

Chapter 9

Previously...

     But now, he can't... Was it because he didn't have the motivation he needed? That must be it. Well then, Rin had a new goal in mind. Find what will help motivate Rin to control his flames. But wasn't trying to control it to help save his life motivation enough? Not to Rin, it was just pressure on him. He needed motivation and fast, time is ticking, and time is very short.

Continuing...

     Rin walked back into the dorms, thinking up dinner plans for him and Yukio. When he entered the kitchen area, Rin was greeted by a sudden surprise. In the dinning area, he saw all 4 Gojo, Megumi, Nobara, and Itadori. They all noticed him.

    "Hey Rin" Nobara said, waving lazily at him, looking tired as hell. 

    "Uhh... Hey?" Rin waved back awkwardly.

    "Rin, why didn't you say that your brother was the teacher?" Itadori walked up to Rin. 

   Itadori put his arm around Rin. 

  "You guys? Wh-what are you doing here?" Rin asked. 

  "You brother was kind enough to let us stay till we fixed the whole cursed problem. Before he could show us to our room, he left for a mission, saying that you'll show us the way" Itadori said.

   Rin laughed awkwardly "Heh, is that so?" Rin started "Well then, follow me, I'll lead you to some spare rooms we have" Rin said. 

   Itadori released Rin and they all grabbed their belongings and followed Rin to the rooms they had.  After showing Megumi, Gojo and Nobara to their rooms, Itadori asked Rin if he could bunk with him, if that was alright.

    "Well, sure I guess" Rin said with a smile. 

   Wow... They both barely knew each other for a few days, and already they were so close. Rin showed the way, and helped Itadori get settled in. Itadori returned the favor by helping Rin move his things.

   "What's this Rin?" Itadori asked.

   Rin turned around and saw that Itadori was holding his sword.

   "Thats my sword" Rin said. Not caring that Itadori was holding it. 

   Once he knew it was a sword. Itadori handled it with the upmost care.

  "Oh, really?" Itadori asked, now walking to Rin with it.

   "Yea, that sword is how I unlocked my demon powers" Rin said. 

   "Oh?" Itadori handed it to Rin and Rin removed the sword from the fabric cover. 

  "Oh! What a cool sword!" Itadori said in amusement.
