New Breathing Style (Ice Breathing)

Natagumo Mountain Part 1

Ichika's POV

I sit in between Yui and the boar head guy. I think his name was Inosuke? Honestly, this guy is pretty violent and an airhead. But he's strong, so he might be useful. I snapped out of my train of thoughts when I saw the said guy glare at me. I never realized that I was staring at him.

Turning my head to the side, I tried to hide my slightly pink cheeks. I silently huffed in anger. Who does he think he is to glare at me? I'd kill him if it wasn't for Yui and Tanjiro. I looked up when I felt a nudge on my side. Yui looked at me with a teasing look. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. I placed my arm on the table and rested my cheek on my hand.

"If you keep thinking about him you might pass out." whispered Yui in with a teasing tone. I turned around and gave her a dramatic offended look. "As if I was thinking of that meat head." I said as I lightly shook my head.

"Oh really? You don't seem like it."

"Shut it. Inosuke is nothing but an arrogant and idiotic meat head. To be honest, the only thing good about him is his pretty face and strength."

"I never said it was Inousuke." My eyes widen at that. I gazed at my best friend and saw her giving me a coy smile. I bit my lip and tried to stop the heat on my face. "So you think he's pretty. And you even acknowledge his strength. Nice."

I immediately glared at her and she did nothing but giggle. "Dinner is ready." Hisa-san's voice caught everyone's attention and I quietly sighed in relief. Thank you Hisa-san, if you arrived any later Yui might have pushed me to the edge.

Hisa-san left as soon as she put out food on the table. I clasped my hands together and mumbled, "Itadakimasu."

I grabbed the chopsticks and started eating. Just when I thought my peace was everlasting, a cheeky laugh shattered all of that peace I just had. I looked over at Inosuke and saw how he gave me a sly grin. I raised a brow at him, and then he did something I would literally murder him for.

He. Stole. My. Food.

I slammed my chopsticks down and glared at him. I heard a low "oh no." From Yui. "You did not just steal MY food." I said in a low and threatening voice. The little thief actually had the audacity to gave me a challenging glare.

"And what's that to you? I CAN TAKE WHATEVER I WANT AND YOU CAN'T TELL ME JACKSHIT." Inosuke arrogantly declared.

An irk mark appeared on my forehead as I tried to stop myself from stabbing him with my chopsticks. This little...He's pissing me off. If there's anything you don't want to do so you don't have to get on my bad side; that's to NEVER EVER steal my food. And this guy just did that. I was about to say something when Tanjiro held out his own portion of food to Inosuke. "Here Inosuke, I don't think Ichika-chan likes it when other people take her food." If it weren't for the fact that part of my food is gone, I would've forgive and forget.  I sighed and calmed down a little. Yui chuckled nervously and gave me a piece of her tempura. "There. Now calm down okay? We wouldn't want a murderer scene here just because of food." She said and I saw Zenitsu flinched at that.   "I-Ichika-chan wouldn't r-really murder anyone for food right?" the blonde asked with a nervous glance. I raised a brow, "what do you think?" I retorted.  Zenitsu gulped and just continued eating. I heard a grumble from Mr. Steal-my-food, he was glaring at Tanjiro. "ARGH! WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?!" He yelled while gripping his hair tightly. I hummed in amusement. His hair is actually really pretty, I don't know why he hides it.   If I had to compare, I feel like he's more feminine than I am. That thought alone made me sweat drop. God must have favourites. Making such a violent guy have a really pretty face. Geez, save some for us ladies.   After we all ate, we were on a room with five futons. Me and Yui are of course are placed on the other side while the boys are on the opposite. I rolled my eyes at Zenitsu's attempt to lay down next to us. This boy is really desperate huh? Makes me wonder how he'll react when he finds out about Nezuko.  It's actually pretty obvious that he knows about her being a demon inside Tanjiro's box. We all layed down and stared at the ceiling. "The doctor said we're all in a critical condition." said Zenitsu.  Yeah no shit.   "You know it was mostly because of you that I'm like this you know." He said to Inousuke. "You should...
