Chapter Text
Megumi stares at the screen of his phone, trying to ignore the sound of the shower. Megumi looks at news articles or his chat on his phone screen to shift his focus. The sound of the shower in the room they booked is making his face even more heated. Am I really doing this? I won't gain anything at all, in fact, if Itadori knows about this he'll probably get pissed at me.
The sound of the shower stops and only silence filled the room. Then there is the sound of the door clicking and swinging open. From the other side of the door appeared the form of Sukuna, only in his towel and his hair still wet. "Your turn." His face turned to that of a smirk. "Make sure you clean yourself well."
Megumi places his phone on the nightstand and rose from the bed. He walked past Sukuna and enters the bathroom without uttering a single word. Megumi takes off his clothes and turned the shower on, setting it to the coldest temperature to soothe his heating body. His heart is beating fast and his face and ears are red. How did I get into this situation?
-----
"Fushiguro!!! Kugisaki!!!" Itadori spots Megumi and Kugisaki from across the campus and shouts at him to gain their attention. He then runs towards them both after they noticed him. It only took Itadori a few seconds to run across the campus to reach the outdoor cafeteria, where Megumi and Kugidaki are sitting.
"You don't have to be so noisy," Kugisaki scolds Itadori. Other students were staring at Itadori for the sudden loud noise.
"Sorry, sorry..." Itadori rubs his head while apologizing. "Say have you guys done the homework for Math 101 class? I've been trying to do that last night, but I just can't understand it~" Itadori whined.
"You didn't do it didn't you." Said Megumi in a monotone voice.
"Geh." Itadori almost felt physical pain when Megumi knows the real reason he needed the homework. "Fine... I was watching TV all night, okay? But I swear I tried to do the algebra questions before I started watching TV~"
Kugisaki sighs. "Well, I guess sometimes people forget about things. Why don't you show him the homework, Fushiguro?"
"You didn't do it too, didn't you." Said Megumi in a monotone voice.
"It's not my fault okay?! There was a huge blow out end of year sale at the mall and I just have to try the ones in G*cci and Pr*da!!!" Kugisaki tried to defend her procrastination.
This time Megumi is the one that sighed. He opens his bag and took out his notebook where he did the homework. "For number 3 I'm still kind of confused, but for the rest, I'm quite sure with my answers."
Both of them brightened up and thanked Megumi. Calling him their savior and whatnot. Megumi gave up, these two are always leeching off of his answers. Kugisaki may do her homework sometimes, but Itadori almost always asks for his answers 80% of the time... Which is almost every day.
"And... Done!" Itadori closes his book. "Thanks as always, Fushiguro." Itadori hands back Megumi's book. When Megumi was taking the book from Itadori's hand, their hands briefly touched, which made Megumi blushed a bit. He hides his face as fast as he can so the other two won't notice his slightly flushed face.
"What's wrong, Fushiguro?" Kugisaki asked. "You okay there?"
"Yeah, what's wrong Fushiguro?" Itadori asked with a worried tone. He felt as if he's the cause of Megumi's discomfort.
Megumi waves his hand. "No, it's fine. Just... static shock from Itadori when we touched." Megumi brilliantly made a cover-up story.
"Really?" Itadori checks his shoes. "Well, I did just bought these shoes... Sorry about that, haha~" Itadori's phone vibrates in his pocket. He checks his phone and it shows that it's time. "Ahh, it's time for my next class." Itadori rose from his seat and pushes the chair back to the table. He then packs his things. "Well, see you later then. Also, sorry for shocking you just now, Fushiguro." After saying his goodbyes, Itadori runs towards the campus building.
Kugisaki gave a sly smirk towards Megumi.
"What do you want?" Megumi asked gruffly.
"You should just confess to him, you know? You're lucky he's oblivious so it'll take some time for him to figure it out, but I'm sure he'll catch on sooner or later." Kugisaki said in a playful tone.
Megumi became annoyed at the statement, but it's true. He may be an idiot for most of the time, but he's always smart in the right areas. Megumi sighs. "Sorry, but I- Ugh." Megumi rose from his seat and packs his things. "My next class will be soon. See you later, Kugisaki." Megumi pushes his chair and leaves the cafeteria.
Kugisaki also packs her things. "Damn, people in love are always so complicated~" Kugisaki laughs as she leaves the cafeteria area.

"And... That's all for today! Thank you for attending the class and there will be a revision quiz next week." Gojou said to his students. He smiled at their reactions when he said there will be a quiz next week. Other students begin to leave the classroom.
"Aww, damn! There's a quiz next week. I might have to study for real~" Itadori whined. "Gojou-sensei! What are the topics for the revision quiz?" Itadori shouts from the back of the classroom.
"Just some algebra, Yuuji-kun~ I'm sure you can do it, you managed to get a good score on the homework I gave yesterday right?" Gojou deviously smiled. Of course, he knows that Itadori probably copied off of someone and that someone is probably Megumi.
Itadori smiled awkwardly and scratches his head. "Hehe... I guess I did..."
Gojou smiled at the reaction. "It's fine, I'm sure Megumi could teach you if you don't understand."
"What?" Megumi was surprised at the sudden mention of his name. "Why do I have to do that?!"
"You don't want your classmate to flunk the class right? I'm sure you'd help him like last time." Gojou checks his score folder. "With your help, Yuuji might get a passing... probably." He then shrugs.
"Fushigurooo~ Help me study please..." Itadori puts his hands together and begs for Megumi's help.
Megumi sighs. He always can't say no to Itadori. "Fine. You better listen to what I'm saying though."
"Yay!" Itadori felt safer knowing he had Megumi had his back. Itadori packs his things to leave the classroom, Megumi too. "Well, we can meet in my dorm room. I'll buy you snacks, okay?"
"It's fine," Megumi replied. After packing their things, they both were the last to leave the classroom.
Gojou smiled silently while watching the two from his desk. Well, at least Yuuji won't fail the class.
-----
Both of them met the next day. Since it was a weekend, they have the whole day for studying.
"Ah" Itadori stops his writing. "I need to go to the toilet for a bit..."
"At least finish the question first if you want to go." Megumi objects.
"Uhh... I really gotta go though. I can't hold it anymore..!" Itadori shows visible discomfort in his face.
Megumi sighs in defeat. "Fine, just go already."
"Thanks!" Itadori stood up and ran towards the door.
Great. Now I'm alone. Megumi looked around at Itadori's room. There are posters of women with big breasts decorating it. Not to mention that there's a poster of J*niffer L*wrence, which he dubs numerous times to be his type. It'll never work out. Megumi hates that he has a crush on his best friend, who is so obviously straight. He's been trying to keep his feelings at the bottom of his heart, but for some reason, they're always together most of the time. Megumi hoped that by hanging out together, he'd get used to it and the crush will subside, but the more he hangs out with Itadori his feelings grew even more.
Suddenly the door bursts open, and Itadori appeared. Itadori looked at Megumi and his face became annoyed. "Who the fuck are you supposed to be?"
Megumi became confused at the reaction Itadori gave. "What?" Itadori appeared in different clothes when he left his room. He was using his hoodie when he left, but when he returned he's in a sleeveless shirt. Also since when did he have tattoos? There are tattoos all over his body and face now too.
Itadori sighs. "Ah well, no need to answer that, I don't care anyway." Itadori walked towards the bed and jumped towards it. He then opens his phone without care for his surroundings.
This just left Megumi dumbfounded. Weren't we supposed to study?
The door opens again and another Itadori appears. This time it's the one that left the room with the hoodie. "Sorry about that! I drank a bit too much because of-" Itadori registers the presence of his doppelganger. "What are you doing here, bastard?"
Itadori(?) glances at the other Itadori. "My room heater is being pissy all of a sudden. I'm just lounging here for a bit, pretend I'm not even here and I'll pretend you're not here." His eyes then returned to his phone.
Itadori wanted to complain, but he didn't want to make a scene in from of Megumi. "Sukuna, I'm trying to study for a quiz here!" Itadori walks towards the bend and kicks him with his foot. "Get out!"
Sukuna ignores Itadori's kicking. "Just do it then. I won't bother you at all, brat." Sukuna grabs Itadori's leg and pulls it, making Itadori fell butt first onto the floor.
Itadori flinches in pain and rubs his ass. "Ow... Fine." Itadori moves to the table where Megumi and he were studying. "Now, where were we?"
-----
After some time, Sukuna left the room without saying a word to both of them. After him leaving, Megumi asked the question that's been bugging his mind since there were two Itadoris entering the room. "What the hell was that?"
Itadori sighs. "It's Sukuna. He's my older twin brother, we don't talk that often. We became estranged and he changed his name. He goes by Ryomen Sukuna now."
"You have a twin brother?" Megumi was surprised at the sudden revelation.
"We don't associate with each other. He mostly just stick around his dorm anyway, in fact, he barely ever attend classes." Itadori adds.
"Wait, how is he not expelled?" Megumi asked. It doesn't make sense if he always skips classes that he's safe from expulsion.
"Oh, that?" Itadori rubs his head awkwardly. "Well, I have no choice but to admit, his grades are always the top of the class even though he barely attends any. He's one year above us even though he's our age. You don't need to call that bastard senpai if that's what you're wondering."
"Wait, he's the Ryomen Sukuna that always gets top three in the exam board?" Megumi was surprised.
"Yeah, he is. Ugh, let's talk about something else." Itadori gags. "Don't want to think about the bastard. I'd recommend you to stay away from him, nothing good can come up when you're near him."
Megumi was surprised at the warning. "Duly noted." He still remembered his aggressive attitude.
-----
It was night time now. Megumi stayed extra late to make sure that Itadori understands the materials for the quiz. Damn, I'm tired Megumi's dorm room was in another building, and he needs to walk there. Megumi walks through the automatic sliding door of his dormitory and registers someone familiar with the vending machine.
"Oh, it's you." It was the Itadori with tattoos. Sukuna grabs the drink he bought from the machine, opens it, and took a huge gulp from it. "Wait, you live here in this dorm? Shit, can't believe I'm living underneath the same roof with a pal of his."
"Same to you. Can't believe I live in the dorm as a lazy truant." Megumi snarks back.
Sukuna scoffs at the sharp tongue. "Heh, I assume the brat told you all about me. Well, doesn't matter anyway, Fushiguro Megumi." Sukuna shrugs and walked away to the corridor on the right.
Megumi walked to the left corridor, where his dorm room is. When he reached his door, he realized something peculiar from Sukuna's words. How the hell did he know my name?
