Dreaming | AoIno | Inosuke x Aoi | InoAoi

Mockery

She sat on her bed, having no work felt so relaxing. The girl felt calm, like she was immune to worries. Never mind. She shouldn't of felt like that. Her worries had flown back up to her. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

What if the girls need me?
What if they have trouble with Zenitsu-kun?
(That'd be terrible)
What if they forget I'm off and don't fill in for me?
What if Inosuke acts like a complete idiot?
(It's pretty normal)

Oh well.

Aoi decided to go to sleep. Thinking made her quite tired. She never got naps throughout the day, so this made her pretty happy.

She woke at night. She looked out the window, looked around 7pm. She got up and walked outside. She sat at the foot of the deck in the garden, the wind brushed against her face, it felt very soothing.

"Don't hurt her!" A voice called in a very mockingly way.

It reminded Aoi of two things, but she couldn't remember at the top of her head.

"What do you want!?" It said angrily, pitching it's voice higher to make it seem like it was a smaller girl.

Aoi turned left and right sharply, the voice gave her shivers. Looking to her left again, she saw an inhuman hand waving to her.

"Remember me? Ah, is your memory failing you?" The voice asked, right before the hand had disappeared.

Aoi!!
Aoi!!
Are you okay?
Aoi looked up to see Naho next to her side.
"You've been asleep this whole time, Aoi. It's quarter to 7. Do you want to eat dinner now?" The smaller girl asked.

"Yes, please, that'd be lovely, Naho-chan." Aoi replied in a softer tone.

The girl nodded and walked off.

What the hell.

Was that a dream? What does it mean? That voice had to be the one from before... that demon.

And what it was saying. It seemed familiar.
What's that demon's motive anyway?
What has my mind created? It's made this demon to mess with myself. It's so annoying.

Two nights in a row, she has had similar dreams.

It was pretty freaky. Scary.

That day, Inosuke had a lesson with her so after she took the sheets in, she headed towards the room.

"Eh? Why you late?" Inosuke asked.
"Not all humans are perfect and can get to places on time, yeah and it just so happens I'm human." The girl responded with her usual stiff voice.

The lesson went on for about an hour, it was around 7pm now. She taught him how to read (or at least tried to) It was like teaching a five year old that thought they were some kind of god. Inosuke was a teensy bit childish so it was something that could be easily compared.

"Thank you, Aoi-san." Inosuke called, putting on his boar mask and adjusting it.

"Hey, could you stay here for a second, I need to talk to you." The girl said in a firm voice.

"Eh? Okay." He responded, walking back to the table.

"Well I've been having these dreams... ones with that demon in it. He keeps saying these things that I recognise but I can't remember, where from." She explained, tightening her grip on her dress.

"The boy one?" He questioned.

The girl nodded in response.

"Me too! He keeps calling me a weird boar. Says all that but can't look me in the eye, I bet he's too scared."

"Yeah but I'm becoming worried...
What if that demon is a threat?"

"I want to cut his head off! You should join me since he's pissing the both of us off."

"No way! I can't slay demons!" She raised he voice a bit, shaking her head.

"You survived the final selection." He responded confused.

"Yes but that was pure luck!"

"Okay... it was just a thought. It's fine, I bet I can beat the demon myself!" He said proudly.

"Yeah, then you'll come back with broken bones and I'll have to look after you." She said with her firm voice, walking out after.

He had to go reminding me of how much of a scaredy cat I am. He didn't mean to, so I forgive him, but being reminded of it makes me feel sick.

Ugh. The thought.

But imagine if I could slay that demon. It'd bring me joy. The light to my life. I doubt the demon exists. Maybe it appears into stressed people's dreams. Was Inosuke-kun stressed? As if! He always has a winning, idiotic smile on his face, and I barely show a smile.

When Inosuke-kun said that, was he mocking me? He knows I'm not a Demon Slayer anymore. Wait... no. He doesn't know that I feel guilty about it. So... I can't blame him.

The next day, the boys had physical training. Yaaay... I get to have that's disgusting liquid poured on top of me again. (Not really being attacked. It's just for training.)  Zenitsu-kun refuses to pour the green liquid on us. (That's pretty good for us.) Tanjiro-kun is pretty nice about it. (He places the cup on top of our heads. That's nice too.) But Inosuke-kun throws it all over us. (Which is expected because that's what you're supposed to do.) Eh. We can't complain, honestly. That's what they were told to do.

Next they have to play tag. They can barely tag Kanao. Tanjiro-kun was the first to tag her. That's pretty funny to me. I think they'd make a good couple. I love Kanao. She's like my sister. She's always so kind.

I'm easily tagged. Oh well. They're pretty fast.
Inosuke holds me upside down by my ankles, it's really scary. I'm very worried for Inosuke-kun. Many girls don't have his features and actions on their desired partner list. They might be too scared to approach him, they also might be freaked out by his feminine face. That makes me very sad. He's such a sweet boy and people won't be able to see that at first. If he does find a girlfriend... I just hope he's not too much trouble for them.

I cannot with this chapter it's so bad and ugly and the story is rushed
