Ever since Suguru started his job as a teacher in Jujutsu High, he’s been working late.

Grading papers as he usually did during the late hours of the night, since during the day he’s out on missions with his students. It’s not his fault, he’s just a heavy insomniac due to incidents from the past.

Of course, every sorcerer needs their sleep. You knew this, so you’d check up on him every night after work, seeing if sleep would catch up to him eventually.

Sometimes you brought him food, or coffee to help him. Sometimes you coaxed him into going home and getting some beauty rest. But on most nights, including this particular one, you checked up on him in his classroom, only to offer him your company while he worked.

He didn’t mind your presence. He thought you were quite sweet, actually, since you also worked as a teacher with him. You knew the struggles of being an insomniac.

As he saw you bring a chair to the front of his desk, he smiled gently. “Am I to assume you are accompanying me tonight once more?” He asks, a slight teasing tone in his voice. He already knew what your answer was going to be.
