Inside Jujutsu High.
Naoya pushed down on Suguri's back, helping her go into a deeper split.
"..stop, don't push anymore," Suguri said in a pained tone, her back aching as her chest slightly touched the wooden floor.
Naoya blinked, then pulled back his hands, making Suguri sigh in relief.
But before she could get too comfortable, a foot landed on her back and instantly pushed her all the way down.
Cold sweat instantly appeared on her forehead as she started shaking.
"....you... I said stop.."
The force on her back increased further, now completely pressing her against the floor.
Suguri gritted her teeth and sent him a thousand curses inside her mind.
She told him to stop, so why wouldn't he stop??
As if to answer her question, Naoya raised the corner of his mouth and said,
"This is the Zenin way."
To hell with your crazy clan!
Seeing that she had truly reached her limits, Naoya slowly started releasing the pressure.
As soon as she regained her freedom, Suguri jumped back to her feet and sent a punch straight toward Naoya's face without hesitation.
Naoya calmly parried her strike by raising his arm.
Suguri felt her anger rising and instantly started throwing punches at him.
Woosh Woosh*
Each one of her strikes was swung with all of her strength, reinforced with cursed energy.
But Naoya remained calm and easily countered all of her attacks.
She tried to be sneaky and slip in a kick in between, only to be grabbed by the collar and thrown through the air the very next moment.
Thump
Huff Huff*
Lying on the floor, Suguri let out several large breaths, making her chest heave up and down in a rhythmic motion.
Naoya squatted down and looked straight at her.
"Your strength has improved, along with your technique and efficiency."
It was overall steady growth.
Suguri gave him a blank look, then silently moved her hand to pinch his face.
Naoya easily caught her sneak attack and commented with a smile,
"You remind me of myself."
Suguri instantly refuted,
".....I'm not strong like you."
"Yes, but you're even more stubborn."
Naoya said while easily catching her other punch aimed at his face.
Releasing her hands, Naoya was about to get up when Suguri suddenly opened her mouth.
"Hey, Naoya."
Naoya paused and looked back at her.
He saw Suguri's raised hand.
Grabbing it tightly, he pulled and instantly helped her back to her feet.
Seeing his face up close, Suguri turned her head away, making Naoya tilt his head in confusion.
Just then,
a familiar voice rang out from the side.
"Hey you, wannabe yellow head!"
Their heads moved in sync, turning toward the familiar voice.
Satori walked with confident steps. Stopping right before Naoya, she crossed her arms and said,
"Hmph, it seems you know what's good for you after all."
She was acting haughty on the outside; on the inside, however—
'He didn't go with Mei Mei-senpai..... that's good.....'
She felt relieved and a little happy at the same time.
Naoya ignored her haughty smile and asked in a casual tone,
"I fulfilled my promise, so what about you?"
As he finished speaking, his gaze lowered to her chest.
"What about me? Heh, you'll have to wait and see."
Satori narrowed her eyes, then turned to Suguri.
"Suguri! You brought your swimsuit?"
"Yes."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
Satori raised her arms and turned around to leave when Naoya suddenly grabbed her head.
"One of us still hasn't arrived."
It was obvious who it was.
"Dammit, Shoko, where are you??"
Satori shouted loudly into her phone.
"Yawn~ give me ten minutes, I'm coming~"
A tired voice came from the other side.
"You're sleeping? You're still sleeping!?!"
Well, it was a holiday after all.
While Satori was going crazy in anger, Naoya and Suguri took their seats in the car.
It was a black four-seater vehicle which Satori brought from the Gojo clan.
After waiting for some time, Shoko finally arrived.
Only to be caught by Satori and shoved inside the car without any warning.
"Let's go!"
Satori said in excitement while sitting in the front passenger seat.
Naoya, in the driver's seat, looked at her before leaning over and fastening her seat belt.
"Why do you keep forgetting to fasten your seat belt?"
"Because it's unnecessary."
Suguri, in the back, gave the smiling Satori a silent look.
'You don't think it's unnecessary when you go on a mission with me. Only when Naoya is around do you act dumb.....'
Naoya pressed on the accelerator and started the car.
Passing through the streets of Tokyo, they drove for some time before arriving at their location.
"It's so lively here.....", Shoko muttered, looking at the crowd by the ocean.
'It certainly is colourful.', Naoya thought, looking around the mature women walking around in colourful bikinies.
Coming to beach was indeed a wonderful idea.
"Come! Let's go change!", Satori shouted and quickly took Suguri and Shoko away with her towards the changing room.
Naoya looked at their retreating figures then pulled out a beach umbrela from the car along woth a light blue container and a chair.
Opening up the large umbrela, he placed it down and positioned his chair.
Since he was wearing his swimsuit underneath, Naoya simply took off his shirt and pant revealing his muscular physique, built over a decade of hard work.
Putting on a pair of sunglasses, Naoya took out a cold drink from the container and sat down on his seat.
*Slurp*
The cool drink slid down his throat, making him smile in satisfaction.
Being in a good mood, he decided to tell his clone to give Miko Yotsuya a break today.
As he was waiting, two woman in their early twenties wearing stripped bikinies suddenly approached him.
"Hello.... um are you alone?"
The one with a slimer body took a step forth and asked in a hesitent tone.
'Am I getting hit on?'
Naoya inwardly smirked while maintaining a calm face on the outside.
Turning to the two women, he slightly lowered his sunglasses and said.
"No, I have come with my friends."
"Ah... ok."
The two of them nodded, then retreated back with slightly awkward looks on their faces.
Seeing that they were walking away, Naoya put his glasses back on and relaxed on his chair.
But just as he had settled down.
He sensed a curse energy source silently sneaking up on him.
Sensing its familiarity, Naoya smiled inwardly and remained oblivious on the outside.
He didn't have to wait long.
A pair of fair hands suddenly took off his sunglasses and covered his eyes.
Then a strained voice entered his ears.
"Ahem, guess who it is and you'll get a reward-"
"Satori."
"..."
"I know it's you."
Satori let go of his eyes and lightly pinched his nose before saying in an annoyed tone.
"You must have sensed my curse energy."
Naoyaa didn't say anything and simply turned around.
Instantly, Satori wearing a black bikini, entered his vision.
"What do you think?"
She asked while leaning her body forward and putting a finger on her pink lips.
"You look beautiful."
Naoya admitted without a second thought.
Satori paused for a moment before smilling.
"Don't fall for me idiot."
"I won't after all there's still something lacking.....", Naoya said with narrowed eyes.
"Lacking? What's lacking?"
Satori asked back in curiosity while looking down at her outfit.
"Your hair."
She looked back at him in confusion.
"My hair?"
"Yes..."
Naoya raised his hand and lightly waved it through her neck length hair.
"Long hair will really suit you."
"Long hair?...."
Satori paused, then continued.
"Long hair will interfear in battles."
"Well that's true, what a shame.", Naoya nodded and agreed.
Long hair will indeed affect combat.
Satori swirled a finger through her hair while glancing at Naoya and thinking in her mind.
'Maybe.... when there's no need for me to use my strength in the future..... I'll grow them out.'
On the side, Suguri and Shoko also arrived, wearing a blue and a yellow coloured bikinies each.
Naoya examined them, then have a thumbs-up.
"10/10"
Shoko smiled and said.
"Naoya-kun sure is straigforward.."
"Who asked for your opinion?"
Suguri added while holding her arm and looking away from him.
On the other side.
"Let's go to the ocean!"
Satori shouted, grabbed Shoko befire she could react and rushed in.
Naoya was about to follow when a soft hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder.
Turning his head, he saw Suguri holding a yellow bottle in hand.
"Don't forget to apply suncream."
Naoya blinked then took the bottle from her hand.
"Did you guys apply it?"
"Hmh."
Suguri nodded, then silently watched Naoya apply it on his face before pulling her hair back and asking.
"Want me to help?"
"Hm? Sure."
Naoya gave her the bottle then turned his back towards her.
Suguri pulled some cream in her hand then applied it on his back.
She paused for a moment as her hands passed over the smooth yet hard muscles.
Then without delay, quickly applied the cream all over his back.
"Thank you."
Naoya gave her a smile then ran towards the ocean at quick speed.
Suguri followed behind at a slower pace, muttering under her breath.
"....you're welcome."
As Naoya came near the sea, his eyes landed on Satori who was continuously splashing water at Shoko with a devilish grin on her face.
Shoko, being much weaker then her could only try and retaliate with her own small unsuccessful attempts.
Seeing the clear abuse of power, Naoya k ew what he had to do.
Under the soumbfounded eyes of those around, Naoya jumped almost twenty feet into the sky and rushed straight down like a torpedo.
Cursed Technique: Water Bomb.
Satori, sensing the approaching danger, hurridely raised her head and cursed in a loud voice.
"Y-you big idiot!!"
*Crash*
A mini tsunami like wave suddenly erupted, pushing the cursing Satori and the confused Shoko away with it.
Naoya pulled his head out of water and looked at the result of his action with a satisfied look on his face.
He made sure that no.one else.will.be affected by his little mischiev except Satori and Shoko.
Suddenly from the distant ocean, a loud familiar cry reached his ears.
"Naoya zenin! You're dead!"
"Tsk, merely the cries of the defeated."
Naoya smirked and ignored the empty threats.
Only to be covered by a shadow the next second.
Shadow?
But he was in the sun- oh shit! She's gone crazy!
No wait she was always crazy.
Then the fun began.
They did a hold your breath competition, in which Satori won by cheating with infinity.
Played beach volleyball, in teams of two.
Caught a random shark for fun, scaring the tourists.
After all of that they decided to call it a day, when Satori flayed her arms around and complained loudly.
"No! Let's play more! I don't want to go back!"
Naoya, Suguri and Shoko looked at each other.
"I think it's enough."
"I want to sleep."
"Yeah let's go back."
The three of them turned around and started walking out of the sea.
"W-wait! Y-you're just going to leave me behind!?!"
Satori shouted in a voice filled with betrayal.
"Sniff, leaving your poor, helpless and cute friend behind? How can someone be so cruel?"
She started acting dramatic while raising her voice to make sure that they heard her.
Naoya stopped, released a sigh then turned back around and walked towards her.
"Let's go back Satori."
"You think I'll listen just because you said it? Im not leaving!"
"..... I'll forcefully take you if you won't listen."
"Forcefully? Haha Naoya Zenin! Just because you have beaten some cursed spirits you think you can handle me?? Come! Let me help you experience the difference between us!"
Satori narrowed her eyes and raised her hands, taking on a fighting pose.
Naoya ignored it and came close to her.
Seeing him xome in her range, she raised her eyebrow and was thinking of attacking when suddenly Naoya placed an arm behind her back.
'What is he?....'
Her eyes widened, as a sudden realisation stuck her.
And as if to confirm her thoughts, Naoya bent a little, put his other arm around her legs and pulled her, out of the water and into his arms.
Satori instantly lost all her energy and became incredibly docile.
Her face turned slightly red as she felt her heartbeat quicken in real time.
Naoya, confused by her complete silence, looked down and saw her face covered in a slightly shade of red, her clenched right hand placed on top of her heart along with her beautiful blue eyes shaking from time to time.
Seeing the incredible scene.
A light bulb quickly lit up in his mind as he quickly understood something.
With a grin on his face he lowered his head and said to her.
"Ohoho? Don't tell me? Is 'the' Satori Gojo feeling embarrased??"
Satori heard his words, but instead of replying in her usual sharp tone, she simply turned her head away in silence.
Now it was Naoya's turn to be shocked.
'No wait, she's really embarrased?'
If she didn't like it then she could have thrown him off with infinity.
Which could only mean...
Naoya slightly narrowed his eyes then suddenly raised his arms, making Satori's head fall against his chest.
Seeing her beautiful surprised face, he pretend to have not done anything and simply walked towards the shore.
Satori with her head against his chest, listened to his heart beat while staring absentmindedly at his face from below.
Meanwhile, Shoko who was seeing everything shook her head and turned to Suguri.
"Let's go Suguri, these guys will take too long to come back-"
She suddenly stopped speaking and looked at Suguri who at some point has walked back into the ocean.
"I-I don't want to go back either....."
Suguri said in a small voice while glancing at Naoya and Satori.
"Sigh, give me a break already.....", Shoko said in a tired tone as she instinctively actively reached out for her cigrate.
But when her hand caught empty air, she remembered that she was wearing a swimsuit and sighed even further.
"Ah! Whatever! Let me join too!"
Then she too went back into the ocean and shouted at Naoya.
"We're on strike too! Naoya! You'll have to carry us back too!"
Naoya dropped Satori on the beach and turned back to look at the two idiots.
Sigh two beautiful girls were asking him for help?
How could he possibly refuse?
"I'll come back in a second.", he said to Satori before rushing towards the two at quick speed.
He first picked up the silent Suguri and said to her with a smile
"I didn't know you were into pranks."
"Not a prank, I just wanted to stay in longer.....", Suguri defended herself in a weak voice, carefully resting her head against his arm.
Next was Shoko.
"Hahaha, Naoya-kun sure is strong!"
"... please stop moving your legs."
"Why? Its so much fun!"
Shoko ignored his words and kept moving her legs up and down like she was sitting on some ride.
And with that, this short session came to an end.
----
Next day.
"Hey Satori, there's food on your face."
"What? Where?"
"Wait, let me get it for you."
Naoya raised his hand and brought it closer to her face.
Remembering the famous scene from the anime, Satori blinked, then quickly closed her eyes and leaned forward.
As she was waiting, a thumb suddenly touched the edge of her nose and pulled it upwards.
"???"
Satori opened her eyes in confusion only to be met with a phone's camera.
*Click*Click*Click*
She witnessed Naoya took several pictures with a gloating look on his face.
Satori's eyes turned blank, as she said.
"You... do you think this is funny?"
"Yes."
Naoya replied without hesitation, still holding her nose.
Satori clenched her palms as a dangerous light.
She raised her hand to throw a punch when suddenly Naoya let to of her nose and looked at her with a serious expression.
"Satori, I have something to say."
"Say it after I kill you."
Naoya grabbed her strengthened punch, and held it between his hands.
"Satori, I love you."
"Huh?"
The room fell silent.
Satori stared at Naoya in shock and surprise.
For a moment she thought it was a prank.
But seeing his serious face, tears suddenly started flowing out of her eyes as she nodded and agreed.
"I love you too Naoya!"
"I love you Satori....."
The two moved in closer, their lips about to connect....
When Suguri suddenly opened her eyes and the scene vanished.
Breathing loudly, covered in sweat from head to toe, she raised her upper body and grabbed her face.
"Unpleasent..... dream....."

(Note: Naoya right now is a little talker than Gojo from the movie, also he is more muscular.)
