Curse Back to Five Summers: Best Friends Are an Excuse for Couples

After settling the two sisters Mimiko and Nanako, Geto Suguru reluctantly followed Gojo Satoru to the next room.

This was the first time Gojo Satoru had visited his room since he moved in for so long.

The decoration is not much different from my place, the most different is the color of the wallpaper. My place has beige dark patterned wallpaper, while Gojo Satoru's is light blue.

"It's a bit messy," after opening the door and entering, the first thing Gojo Satoru did was to take off his technical high school uniform jacket and throw it on the sofa.

He told Geto Suguru to sit anywhere and went into the bedroom. After Gojo Satoru left, Geto Suguru was the only one left in the living room.

Although Gojo Satoru said it was a bit messy, Geto Suguru thought it was too empty.

Apart from the existing furniture that was similar to his own, Gojo Satoru hardly bought any new ones. There were no decorations on the walls and no ornaments on the cabinets.

Geto Suguru walked into the semi-open kitchen which was the same as his own. It was very clean, but there was no sign of any cooking.

He smiled and thought, that's right.

He leaves home early every day to go to work, eats lunch outside, and eats at his own place when he comes back in the afternoon. Gojo Satoru never has the chance to cook.

Unless, he wants to have a midnight snack.

However, in Geto Suguru's opinion, Gojo Satoru is not someone who likes to eat midnight snacks.

Coming out of the kitchen, Geto Suguru paced slowly in the small house bored, waiting for Gojo Satoru.

He didn't know what Gojo Satoru was going to do in the bedroom, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed easy to understand.

As adult men, they would definitely have a lot of things that are not suitable for outsiders to see, even though they had a close relationship back then and could talk about anything, and would share any good magazines, photos and videos with each other, but that was in the past, and it was limited to that Gojo Satoru, not the one now.

When they were in college, they often visited each other's dormitories. Sometimes they would play until very late and just squeeze into one bed for the night.

The single bed in the technical college was very narrow and the bed board was very hard. Two big men over 1.8 meters tall squeezed together. When they got up the next day, none of their shoulders, necks, waists, and backs felt comfortable.

At that time, their minds were very pure and friendship was just friendship. They were so naive that they looked at each other like a piece of wood and there was no strange thought in their minds even if they squeezed into the same bed.

Geto Suguru still remembers that Gojo Satoru liked Inoue Kazuka very much back then...

Thinking of this, Geto Xia Yu couldn't help but sneer, and his smile was a bit ambiguous.

At that time, Gojo Satoru liked Inoue Kazuka. I wonder if Gojo Satoru still likes her now, and whether his aesthetic taste has changed.

Geto Suguru's face turned a little ugly, and he sat down on the sofa in silence.

His mind was in a mess, filled with a lot of useless information. At the same time, he felt blank. He didn't know what he was thinking. It was like the delete key on a computer, deleting all the no longer needed things saved on the hard drive with one click, and then emptying the trash can.

Xia Yujie sat there blankly with his elbows on his thighs.

When Gojo Satoru came out of the bedroom, he saw him with his head half lowered in a daze, his long hair hanging behind his head, and a bunch of hair tied with a hairband slightly lower on the top of his head. The tuft of bangs on the left side of his forehead stayed there unchanged for eternity. It would seem strange when seeing it for the first time, but after looking at it for a long time, he felt that this was a touch of gentleness that belonged only to Geto Suguru.

Gojo Satoru leaned against the door frame with his arms folded. He stood there and looked at Geto Suguru quietly for a while, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He bent the index and middle fingers of his left hand and gently pressed them against the bedroom door.

"Boom boom boom——"

Geto Suguru, who was in a daze, looked up when he heard the voice. The cold light poured down from above his head like moonlight, soaking Geto Suguru's slightly charming face.

"Would you like some coffee, or should we just take a break now?"

Geto Xia Yu was slightly stunned, and looking around, he asked Gojo Satoru: "Do you have any extra mattresses here?"

"Huh?" Gojo Satoru looked like he'd heard a funny question and asked, "What do you want the extra mattress for? Are you going to sleep on the floor?"

Xia Yujie nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, but patiently explained, "The sofa is the same as the one over there. It's still too small for a man to sleep on. I have a full day of classes tomorrow. If I don't sleep well, it will affect the quality of my lectures."

Although he didn't like teaching monkeys at all, Geto Suguru still had to do it for a living.

He is not the kind of person who just takes money without doing anything. Since he is getting paid, he is unwilling to fool around. This is probably the persistence that comes from his bones.

"Mr. Geta is truly dedicated to his work," Gojo Satoru said, moving away from the door frame and making his way towards Geta's sofa. He smiled as he walked, "So, back to the question we were asking earlier. Would you like some coffee or a break?"

Xia Yujie frowned, "I said..."

"Don't listen to that," Gojo Satoru had come closer. He did not sit in the empty seat next to Geto Suguru, but sat very rudely on the armrest of the sofa near Geto Suguru.

Despite the seven-year age difference, Gojo Satoru is not at all shorter than Geto Suguru. Having just become an adult not too long ago, his body has not yet shed the thinness of a teenager, and he still looks a little immature next to an adult man like Geto Suguru.

However, Gojo Satoru controlled the aura very well, and the moment their eyes met, the age difference was automatically ignored.

For a moment, Geto Suguru felt that there was not much age difference between them, just like when they were alive, he was about to celebrate his 28th birthday, and Gojo Satoru had just passed his 28th birthday.

"Hey," Gojo Satoru, who was sitting on the armrest of the sofa and was a head taller than Geto Suguru, lowered his head slightly and looked at Geto Suguru, who was looking up at him. "How about coffee? Or black tea? I think Geto Suguru is someone who likes this kind of thing."

Seeing that he couldn't convince Gojo Satoru, Xia Yujie closed his eyes, adjusted his mood and said to him, "I usually don't dare to drink these things after get off work."

Gojo Satoru was completely surprised by this answer. He was stunned and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Geto Xia Yu leaned back on the sofa, smiled and said, "Because I can't sleep. I drink enough in the office during the day just to stay awake. If I drink again when I get home at night, I'll have to spend the whole night awake."

"Um..." Gojo Satoru didn't expect to hear such a reason and was a little at a loss for a moment.

"Before, I had severe insomnia, and it was difficult for me to fall asleep. If I was tired from work during the day, I might fall asleep more easily at night. Otherwise..."

Geto Suguru didn't finish his words, but Gojo Satoru already knew what the omitted words were.
