{third POV}

"Tanjiro! Your ok!" Mitsuri exclaimed, engulfing the boy in a warm hug as soon as he stepped through the gates.

"Huh? Why's Rengoku with you? He hasn't touched you has he?! Was Genya nice as well?" She wailed, looking Tanjiro up and down to make sure he wasn't hurt.

Tanjiro giggled, making Mitsuri's face redden as she listened to him "I'm fine Mitsuri-san, Rengoku Just had to help us on a mission..." he trailed off, taking her hand in his hand giving them a light squeeze as reassurance.

Tanjiro looked over Mitsuri's shoulder and saw Giyuu walking peacefully in the garden, his deep blue eyes occasionally glancing at Tanjiro. Though, he chose to keep in walking and ignore his arrival.

"I'm going to go say hello to Tomioka-san, I'll be back soon" Tanjiro smiled, letting go of the woman's hands and walking over to the water pillar.

"Hey Giyuu-san~" Tanjiro sang, placing his hand upon the male's shoulder "I haven't seen you in ages! It's good to know your ok!" He beamed, sending the male a blinding smile.

Giyuu stared at Tanjiro and simply walked away.

The boy tilted his head to the side in confusion and skipped to catch up with him again "Tomioka-san? Did I do something wrong?" Tanjiro wined, giving his best puppy dog eyes as he walked in front of the pillar.

"No. You've done nothing wrong" he stated, walking around the boy whilst hiding his face discretely with his hand.

Tanjiro's smile faded as he caught up to the pillar once more "Giyuu-san can I have dinner with you tonight?" Tanjiro persisted, following him inside and in the direction of Giyuu's room.

"Why?"

"Because I want to make you happy" Tanjiro purred, making Giyuu's breath hitch as his hand froze before opening the door handle "why don't you eat dinner with Genya or Rengoku?"

"Because I want to spend more time with you?..." Tanjiro replied saddened, his smile dimming due to Giyuu's cold demeanour.

Silence.

"Ok... sorry for bothering you Tomioka-san, maybe we can eat together tomorrow, have a good night"  Tanjiro began to walk away, deciding it would be best to leave the male for today and try again tomorrow.

"W-wait... uhhh you can come in" Giyuu spoke up, grabbing a hold of Tanjiro's wrist so he couldn't go any farther "are you sure? You seem a little tire-"

"Nope it's fine" he decided, opening his door swiftly and dragging Tanjiro inside with a little yelp.

Giyuu let go of Tanjiro and gestured him to sit on his bed "I'll go get some food, you can change into whatever while I'm gone, my clothes are there"

"A-are you sure I can wear your cl-"

"It's fine" he cut off, closing the door and leaving Tanjiro alone.

Giyuu sank to the floor with his head in his hands, tugging gently at his long black hair as he stressed over what to do 'dammit Giyuu, I wasn't supposed to get close to Tanjiro... I just couldn't resist him though. I can't just push him away like that...' he thought, tugging more harshly at his hair now.

'What if I can't protect him though? You idiot, your so pathetic' he gritted his teeth, squeezing his eyes shut as he forced himself off the floor and to go get food for them both.

"Hummm... I'll wear this one!" Tanjiro spoke to himself, pulling on some comfy clothes Giyuu had in the corner of his room. They were rather big on him though, so Tanjiro looked absolutely adorable.

The sleeves almost completely covered his hands and the trousers dragging along the floor. Tanjiro pouted when the shirt slipped down his shoulder and making him shiver a little.

He sat down on the bed and crossed his legs underneath him while he pulled the blanket over his shoulders and snuggled into the fabric.

'Wow it really does smell like Giyuu-san...' Tanjiro thought with a soft smile, burrying his nose into the fluffy blanket while curling in on himself.

His scent was so calming. Like the morning due that rested on fresh grass in the crisp mornings.

"I'm back" Giyuu called, opening the door to see Tanjiro cuddled up in his blankets; his small frame hidden so only his head was poking out.

"Oh hey Giyuu-san! I thought I was about to fall asleep!" Tanjiro giggled, a light dusting of pink covering his chubby cheeks.

"Uhh sorry here" Giyuu mumbled, sitting on the floor and placing down a selection of rise balls given to him by the butterfly girls.

"Thank you!" Tanjiro beamed, shuffling next to the pillar and picking up his own rice ball while still having the blanket covering himself.

"It's no problem..." Giyuu mumbled again, keeping his eyes on the floor as he ate in silence.

"You've been on a lot of missions lately, I'm glad your safe" he chuckled, his cheeks puffing up and down as he scoffed the food. As much as Giyuu wanted to see Tanjiro, he kept his eyes on the floor and hummed "yes, I've been travelling far away"

I'm truth. Giyuu was searching for Akaza. He just couldn't stand letting him get away after what he had done to Tanjiro. The state he was left in, like a piece of rubbish tossed to the side after use.

It enraged him.

He hadn't slept for god knows how long. Searching towns and cities left and right, scouting up mountains and trudging through forests.

But he was forced to go back after he collapsed in a small village in broad daylight, a mixture of malnourishment and fatigue taking a great toll on his body.

"Giyuu-san you look a little pale" Tanjiro asked worriedly, placing his hand on the pillar's forehead.

"Wow! Your burning up! I'll take you to the medical room!" He panicked, pushing the blankets of himself and retracting his hand from the male's forehead.

Giyuu caught a glance fo Tanjiro in his clothes just as the boy picked him up in his arms, making the water pillar a tad bit flustered and embarrassed.

"No no Tanjiro I'm fine, I'm the one whose supposed to be looking after you..." Giyuu whispered, a cold sweat travelling down his face as he struggled to get out of Tanjiro's arms.

"You're so bony Giyuu-san! When was the last time you ate?!" Tanjiro exclaimed, feeling Giyuu's malnourished body with his hands.

"Tanjiro I'm fine honestly, I'll be fine after a good rest..." he whispered, making a futile attempt to get out of Tanjiro's arms.

The boy looked sorrowfully at the pillar and gave in. Walking over to the bed instead and placing the male gently down and covering him with a blanket.

"I'll go get you some water ok?" Tanjiro smiled sadly, not fond on seeing him in such a state.

"No... stay... please" he panted, long black hair laying flat on his forehead as he squeezed his eyes shut "Giyuu-san you need some water, I'll be right back"

Tanjiro walked to the door and was about to leave when the pillar wheezed out a quiet sentence "please stay, I beg you"

Tanjiro felt his heart wrench with sadness at Giyuu's state.

"Ok..." he gave in, closing the door softly and sitting on the floor next to the bed "is this ok?"

Giyuu shook his head and weakly grabbed Tanjiro's arm, trying to pull him into the bed.

Tanjiro gave him a sympathetic smile and shuffled into bed next to him, wrapping his arms around the male's chest as he snuggled into his side.

Tanjiro gasped quietly when Giyuu moved his leg on top of Tanjiro's knees, pulling him closer by his shoulders as he rested his chin atop the boy's messy burgundy hair.

He held him closer than ever before. As if he let go then Tanjiro would disappear forever. Almost like Tanjiro was all Giyuu needed to heal his frail body.

His own medicine.
