Sea Of Stars | Satoru Gojo Fanfic (JJK)
Prologue
Satoru
You're reading again?
I stopped reading the book that I was holding and looked up, expecting to see the bright starry sky but met his wonderful blue eyes instead.
He was standing behind me, looking down at the book that I was reading.
Naomi
Yeah, just to kill time. It's kinda boring here.
I stated casually and closed the book, placing it on my lap.
Naomi
So, how was your date?
He made a face which made me laugh. I kinda know what he's going to say but I just stayed silent and waited for what he was about to say.
Satoru
Please, it's not even a date. My mother forced me to show up there.
He said in annoyance as he massaged the bridge of his nose.
Naomi
I can see the frustration very well in your face.
I chuckled as I hugged my knees.
Naomi
Well, maybe she's not the star that is meant for you.
I added in which I got a confused look from him as his response.
Naomi
The book that I've read right now considers people as stars.
I pointed out the book on my side.
Satoru
Oh? Mind explaining it to me?
I giggled and pulled him down so he could sit in which he obliged to do. I then pointed out the breathtaking night sky and told him
Naomi
Tell me about the stars you see in the sky.
Satoru
Excuse me? I thought you were going to tell me? Why am I the one who-
I elbowed him and rolled my eyes.
Satoru
Alright, fine. They have different sizes and colors, that's kinda due to their compositions and age.
I slapped his arm, getting excited because he got it right the first time.
He said in pain but I just giggled at him and stood up.
Naomi
Just like stars, we people are different in sizes and colors. We have different characteristics and ages. The universe is such one big sea of stars and the earth is a big sea of people. We, just like the stars, live in one certain place, co-existing with each other, each have different roles to fill. Each has different fates, different stories to tell.
Naomi
Eh? Satoru? Did you understand what I'm saying?
I snapped him back to reality when I noticed that he was just staring at me for a long time after I explained to him why stars are just like people.
Satoru
Ah, yes! Now I understand it!
He said and scratched the back of his neck, looking away.
Naomi
Geez, you'd be so dumb if you won't understand it.
Satoru
No, no. I completely understood it, I just thought of something.
He said still looking away from me.
I just pouted and walked towards the sea where the beautiful reflection of the moon is shown. The wisterias on the side added to the beautiful view of the place.
Satoru
In a sea of people, my eyes will always be searching for you.
I turned around, seeing Satoru just a few feet away from me, his hands inside his pocket, eyes looking straight to me.
Satoru
That's the last line of that book.
He casually said and walked towards me.
Naomi
Eh? You've already read that one?
Somehow, I expected that he said that to me. Deep inside me, I kinda want him to see me too, not as his best friend, but as a lady.
I glanced at him, he's now busy looking at the moon, complimenting how beautiful it is.
Naomi
'The most beautiful thing is not the moon, it's your eyes.'
I wish I had the courage to tell him how I feel about him.
Naomi
'In a sea of stars, my eyes will always be searching for you.'
I whispered to myself as I admired him from the corner of my eyes.
On this night, I realized that the sky, the sun, the moon, and the stars were nothing compared to his eyes. It was mesmerizing, so mysterious. Gojo Satoru, you're a breathtaking view.
