You've been best friends with Gojo for so long, but lately, you realized your feelings for him have grown much stronger. His charisma, confidence, maturity and the playful banter between you two have made your heart flutter. Not to mention the countless late night talks and the gifts he spoils you out of nowhere, jumping in to protect you every time whenever you’re in trouble, it only deepens your feelings.

One day, you decide to finally gather the courage to tell him how you truly feel. Gojo's eyes widen in surprise as he takes in your confession. He didn't expect this, but he can see the sincerity in your eyes. He's silent for a moment, contemplating his response.

"I see," he says slowly. "I had no idea you felt that way. I've always thought of you as my best friend, someone I can rely on and have fun with." You can't help but feel a flicker of hope at his acknowledgment. Maybe there's a chance, you think to yourself. But Gojo isn't done yet. "However," he says, his tone serious again. "I can't say I feel the same way about you. I care about you, a lot. But my feelings for you are still platonic."

He knows that you were hurt for a long time after that rejection but you never spoke about it again, and as time goes by you try to move on. Today you both share a different kind of bond, more familial than romantic, although the love for him still lingers in your heart.

You saw Gojo leaning over a balcony, deep in thoughts. "Hey," you say softly, leaning against the railing next to him. Gojo glances at you, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. He forces a small smile, trying to hide his troubled thoughts. "Hey," he replies, his voice lacking its usual cheerfulness.
