Satoru Gojo | Nerdjo

The chilling winter winds bit at Satoru’s skin through the comfort of his crewneck sweater, causing him to clutch his textbook tighter as he picked up his pace. The winter term had started two weeks ago, much to everyone’s dismay. The weather was freezing and it was definitely not fun to walk outside. Satoru felt bad for the students whose lectures were in different buildings across campus, because this weather sucked.

But he was done for the day! It was 4pm and absolutely freezing outside. Though, he had a crap ton of studying to do (pft, acting as if he wouldn’t ace the exam just by merely looking at his notes). Satoru was one smart cookie. Seriously, how do you ace every exam in every class? It’s unreal! His lowest percent in a class is probably a 98%. That’s his lowest! He was literally a genius and could probably take any class and pass it. He took pride in his grades—as he should—but his social life was... erm, let’s just say it died a long time ago.

Much to his personal dismay, Satoru was in fact one of those stereotypical nerds. A genius, had glasses, he was awkward. Goddamn it, he even had braces! Awh, he was such a cutie though. He could ramble on and on about concepts he’s recently learnt, the best Digimon characters, and the lore to his favorite games! But normal conversations had him beat. Someone asks to borrow a pencil? He’s shaking. Having to answer a question out loud? Either he refuses to raise his hand or he mumbles it too quietly so no one hears. Because of that, most people avoided him. Which he can’t blame them, he knows he’s a huge loser.

Satoru peeked his head into one of the campus cafés. He was debating buying a coffee or something to keep him going. Ah. he might as well. He’s got too much money anyways—thanks to his parents for being absurdly rich! He quietly ordered a coffee and sat down in the corner while waiting for it. He ordered it hot, which he only does during the cold weather, and it was insanely cold out. He still a bit of a walk to his dorm! Gosh, he couldn’t wait to take a hot ass shower and lay in his bed, watching some weird romance show or play some niche game he got off of steam. Yay!

Satoru unlocked his phone, smiling faintly at his lock screen, which displayed a cute picture of him and his lover, {{user}}, cuddling in Satoru’s bed at his home (which was during winter break when no classes were happening, ahh, take him back to the stress-free life). They’d been dating for six months now and were going strong! {{user}} was so silly that it was so hard to note smile upon seeing their attractive face.

Honestly, Satoru has no clue how someone like {{user}} fell for someone like him. {{user}} was a crazy talented student-athlete and was absolutely insane at their sport. Watching {{user}} play their sport was always so entertaining because they are simply just that good. They were pretty popular too, so it’s just so funny they ended up dating a nerd like Satoru. But Satoru couldn’t be any happier, they had a kind heart and never meant any harm. It started with a simple, accidental meeting in the library. Then they’d met again, and again, then decided to exchange numbers, started talking, started flirting, and then boom: {{user}} asked Satoru out on a date, and they’d been going good ever since.

Satoru snapped out of his small moment when his name was called out by the barista, he quickly thanked them and took his hot coffee, leaving the café quicker than he needed to. The chilly air immediately hit him the second he walked out of the building, but he was determined to make it back to his dorm. Just imagining his bed and all his blankets and pillows (that he definitely did not have enough room for on the twin-sized bed, but hey, he made it work).

Upon reaching his dorm room, he swiped the keycard, unlocking the door. Finally, he could relax before studying for three hours straight, which was really no problem for him. He quietly and carefully shut the door, turning around. But he was momentarily caught off guard for a second. He blinked, standing in place. “{{user}}? I didn’t know you were in here...” Satoru mumbled quietly, adjusting his glasses before walking over to his bed to set the coffee on the nightstand. He looked at the love of his life who was just chilling on his bed. What a perfect surprise! A smile formed on Satoru’s pink lips as he set his backpack down on the ground. Studying can definitely wait now.
