{Zenitsu POV}
I was pondering different ways to gain Tanjiro's affection when I heard yelling coming from outside. It was muffled but I could easily tell it belonged to Inosuke.

Does that pig ever shut up?

I sighed angrily and started to make my way to the gardens. As I followed the shouting I eventually saw Inosuke, Muichiro, Giyuu and TANJIRO! He always seems to be caught up in something.

I began sprinting towards Tanjiro when everyone had their back turned, with Inosuke distracted trying to impale Giyuu. At the final moment i threw myself on my sweet Tanjiro and burried my face into his clothing "Tanjiro! I missed you so much!"

I looked up at him to see his face was quite emotionless "Tanjiro?" I questioned once more and he simply gave me a weak smile and ruffled my hair "no need to worry, I'm back now"

I smiled sadly back at him, wiping away my tears "are you ok Tanjiro?" I asked softly, squeezing my arms around his legs tighter so he couldn't move.

"I'm just fine Zenitsu, there's no need to worry" he pried me off his legs and picked me up so I wrapped my arms around his neck and legs around his waist.

"I'll take you back to your room ok?" He asked while stroking a hand through my hair. I blushed furiously at the action and our position. Looking over his shoulder I gave a smug grin to the three that were watching enviously.

I saw inosuke basically about to blow a fuse, Muichiro was clenching onto his sword hilt and Giyuu was death staring me with those creepy cold eyes. I'll never get used to him.

I shivered under the glares and put my attention back on Tanjiro as we went indoors.

We began walking back inside and I felt Tanjiro's hands grip into my back tighter while going up the stairs to get to my room. I sucked in a sharp breath and burried my face into his shoulder; inhaling the beautiful sent of chestnut oak and lavender.

I fully indulged  myself in his homely smell and closed my eyes while being carried. Ah, I feel like a kid again.

This is probably the best ever moment in my life.

I grinned smugly once again when Tanjiro had chosen me and ignored the others when we were outside. It made my chest feel warm and put me at a strange ease.

"Hey Zenitsu wanna go down now" he asked in his usual melodic soft tone of voice. I panicked slightly once I realised we were outside of my room. Not wanting to go I decided pretend I was asleep.

Going limp in his arms I didn't respond in hopes I could spend more time with him.

I heard a sigh escape his lips as he opened my door and walked in carefully. I silently cheered as he continued to play with my hair as he gently laid me down on my bed.

Listening for any other signs of movement I heard complete silence; only the steady breathing of Tanjiro to my right.

I hesitantly squinted open my eye to get a better look to see Tanjiro was actually asleep now. He laid right next to me, curled up in a cute ball slightly shivering.

I pushed my torso of the bed and smiled at him; however, he did look a little cold so I placed my blanket over his small figure. It must've been one heck of a mission if he fall asleep this easily...

I sighed and brushed a strand of dark hair from his forehead. His features were so angelic and soft; almost as if he were favoured by god himself. Beautiful long eyelashes shadowed his plump cheeks, he could probably be mistaken for a girl if someone wouldn't look properly.

I wonder why he looked so down when he came back?

And why was inosuke trying to kill Giyuu and Muichiro?

I hummed about the thoughts for a minute until no conclusion came to mind. I'll just think about that later... but right now - why waste a perfect opportunity? I placed a delicate kiss upon his pink lips at the thought, savouring his taste.

Halfway though someone burst through the door like a fucking rocket and scared the living daylights out of me "WAAAHHHH!" both me and Tanjiro yelled in synchronisation.

I glared towards the door who woke up Tanjiro and saw none other than Inosuke "WHAT WERE YOU DOING TO MONJIRO?!" He screamed, pointing an accusing finger at me.

I huffed with annoyance and turned to see Tanjiro was still fairly sleepy. He rubbed his eyes with a balled fist and let out a cute yawn "he just fell asleep that's all, and YOU woke him up!"

I yelled back at him, trying to shove him out of my room. Inosuke growled like an animal and shoved me to the floor with a clean push. I hissed in pain and rubbed my backside, gritting my teeth while looking up at him.

"Hey inosuke! Why'd you do that? Apologise" Tanjiro instructed the bore head, getting slightly frustrated. Inosuke huffed angrily and grabbed Tanjiro's arm "SORRY ALRIGHT?!"

with that he yanked Tanjiro out of my room, leaving me alone.

{inosuke POV}
I gripped Tanjiro's wrist tighter and began to drag him to his own room. What the hell did that crying stalker do to him?! I growled underneath my mask and opened Tanjiro's door and pushed him in.

"Why were you being so mean Inosuke?" Tanjiro questioned sweetly.

So damn innocent.

"I don't know alright... I wanted to spend time with you" I mumbled, barley enough for him to hear "sorry Inosuke, please can you speak up?" He asked, inching closer to me with a cute confused look.

I felt myself go bright red under my mask and I backed up a little "ITS NOTHING!" I yelled at him, not willing to take the risk of stuttering.

He hummed a little and sat himself down on his bed, placing his sword on the floor next to his head. I hesitantly sat to his right and lifted off my mask; he smiled when I did and stroked a hand over my cheek "I like when you take your mask of inosuke, you're really pretty" he complimented, smiling tiredly towards me.

I managed to calm myself before I turned into a tomato and cleared my throat "tch whatever" I mumbled, slightly nuzzling my face into his kind hand.

"Yes he's back master" Douma, the second upper moon instructed, grinning evilly whilst watching the young demon slayer tiredly interact with Inosuke.
