Does My Best Friend Always Sneakily Hold My Hand Because He Likes Me?

Recommending my upcoming story, Is There Really That Much Difference Between Me and My Photo?, pairing: Gojo x Geto

After enrolling at Jujutsu High, Geto acquired a mysterious System.

By completing the various tasks issued by the System, he could earn points, which he could then use to buy all sorts of things in the shop.

Including, but not limited to, The Ultimate Guide to Reverse Cursed Technique, How to Use Maximum Techniques, and cursed spirits of various grades...

Normally, Geto wouldn't believe in such a thing as free rewards falling from the sky. But with all those tempting prizes right in front of him, he shamelessly found himself giving in.

Just then, the System issued its first task: [Hold hands with Gojo for one minute]. Geto opened the shop. The points he'd earned were exactly enough to buy a Grade 2 cursed spirit.

It's only holding hands, Geto thought.

Figuring he might as well give it a try, he stayed silent for a full minute, then turned and headed to Gojo's dorm.

When Geto asked to hold his hand, Gojo's face grew more and more twisted.

One minute later.

Geto happily heard the sound of points being added to his account. The instant he bought the cursed spirit, he realized that a strange Grade 2 cursed spirit had really appeared in his cursed spirit space.

!!!!!!!!

Geto's shocked face.

After that hand-holding incident in the dorm, Gojo noticed that Geto had become especially strange. Sometimes he would come up beside him and secretly take his hand; other times he would suddenly hug him from behind...

Gojo couldn't make sense of it.

Being the clever one, he posted a thread titled, "Does My Best Friend Keep Sneaking His Hand into Mine Because He Likes Me?"

Original poster: My best friend has been acting really weird lately. When we go out, he always sneaks his hand into mine. When I ask him about it, he stammers and can't get a word out... One time, I woke up and found him standing really close to me...

Reply 1: Isn't it obvious? Your best friend definitely likes you.

Reply 2: Agreed, 10086 times over.

Reply 3: I think the person above is right. Do you like your best friend? You two should talk it out.

Reading the replies, Gojo wore the look of a cat suddenly understanding everything.

Now that he had his answer, Gojo decided to give Geto a chance. But no matter how long he waited, Geto never confessed, so Gojo decided to make the first move.

Geto realized his best friend had been acting strangely lately, always saying inexplicable things like, "Suguru, don't hold yourself back," and, "Suguru, you should put yourself out there."

Before Geto could figure out what was going on, Gojo confessed to him.

Geto: "…"

[Upcoming story blurb]

Geto met Gojo in a game. At first, he just thought Gojo was incredibly skilled. As they got to know each other, he realized that Gojo wasn't just great at the game, he was a lot of fun in person too.

They talked about everything, and every day they had more to say.

As the days went by, Geto got to know Gojo better and better.

He knew Gojo loved sweets, so he always went out of his way to send him the local specialty from his area: edamame and fresh cream daifuku.

He knew Gojo lived in an old-fashioned, conservative clan, so he always sent him the latest games and manga.

He knew Gojo was especially fond of scuba diving, and Gojo sent him lots of beautiful underwater sights every day. Geto also sent Gojo professional diving gear, though he never saw Gojo use it.

Gojo sent him lots of specialties from his clan, such as pearls and seafood.

On the nth day after they met, Gojo confessed to him.

It was incredible: Geto had fallen in love online.

His online sweetheart was adorable, with white hair whiter than snow and deep blue eyes bluer than the sky.

His online sweetheart loved acting cute with him and eating one sweet treat after another.

Then one day, they met in person, and Geto was dumbfounded. His adorable online sweetheart turned out to be a hulking 190-centimeter-tall guy who was taller than Geto and called himself "your man."

Holding up the photo on his phone, his online sweetheart asked, "Is there really that much difference between me and the photo?"

Geto fell in love. His partner was 190 centimeters tall, but still adorable.

His partner had snow-white hair... and a gorgeous fish tail. Wondering why he had a fish tail?

Because his partner was a mermaid from the depths of the sea.

In their free time, they would swim hand in hand through the underwater world, and kiss intimately at the highest point of the Ferris wheel.

Geto held Gojo's hand, and they promised never to let go for the rest of their lives.
