Zenitsu's Mission: Part 1 (Zennezu)

This story was made by me and it came to me mind earlier and I was like. Why not? So here you go! I really hope you like it!

Nezuko's POV

I was in my box waiting for a special someone to stop by and talk with me. And by someone I mean, Zenitsu. He would normally at the end of the day every day he would come into the room and tell me how his day was. He would normally say how torturous the training was for him, or that a scary spider was crawling up a tree he was sitting beside. He would always come in with flower crowns for me whenever my last one wilted and would always compliment on how I looked. He was real flattering and I would always smile brightening my night even more considering I can't be out during the day. Some people say he's annoying, a crybaby, a scary cat, a playboy, but what I see is a precious boy who is who he is. I honestly find his crying, his annoyance, and his fears of small things to be adorable.

        I was tapping my knees that were brought up to my chest, swaying my head from side to side, a happy and content smile on my face. Every footstep coming near my room always makes me perk up in hopes it's Zenitsu. But in the end it's just someone else who just casually passes by the room with no care in the room.

It has been an hour past the time Zenitsu would usually walk in with the usual "NEZUKO-CHANNNNN~!" That would always make me giggle, but this worried me a bit. It was probably nothing, he's most likely just doing more training and forgot what the time was. I just sat there looking around in my box trying to pass the time till he gets here.

Ok now I'm starting to get worried a lot more now since it's been another hour and Zenitsu still hasn't shown up. The box was now almost pitch black if it wasn't for the brown colored wood standing out in the dark. I decided to leave the box and see where he was. As I opened the box I can see the room pitch black so it was hard to see where stuff was. Luckily there were nights where me and Zenitsu would talk outside of the box and sit on the bed inside the room. So it was familiar where stuff was and where the door was. I walked towards it and when I got close I grabbed hold of the handle and twisted it before opening it. The door opened it and the darkness of the hallway settled in. I looked around to see where I was at. Once I was satisfied to where I was, I left the room silently closing the door behind me. I slowly walked down the hallway trying to not create a sound.

       I kept walking turning a corner until I saw the door to the room my brother, Inosuke and Zenitsu were staying in. I felt my heart pound and my adrenaline going at the thought of seeing Zenitsu. Without realizing it I accidentally walked straight into the door thanks to me being full of my thoughts. I jumped back a tiny bit and held a surprised expression as I realized what I just did. I just brushed it aside and grabbed the handle twisting it before opening it slowly. God forbid I should have a quiet entrance as the door let out a loud creak. I cringed at the sound of the creaking and looked at the 3 boys in the room. The only one that seemed to be disturbed was Zenitsu, though that kinda didn't surprise me since he has a great sense of hearing.

He turned to face the opposite way he was originally facing grunting in the process. I closed my eyes letting out a mental sigh, I looked back up as I started to enter the room closing the door behind me. I slowly tiptoed towards Zenitsu's futon. Once I got next to it I knelt on the ground as he slept soundly like a baby. She felt a big blush come to her face as she kept staring at how baby like he slept. She shook her head getting back to her original mission and then poked Zenitsu's arm enough to not hurt him. He scrunched his face up a bit and turned the other way away from her and mumbled something she didn't understand. Determined she put on her determination face on and those time poked him 2 times trying to wake him up.

       He just situated himself in a different situation again and just tried to wave off whatever was poking him which was me. Crossing my arms in frustration and just staring at him thinking of another way to wake him. I then got an idea, I grabbed his shoulders and shook him awake. "AHHHHHH!" Zenitsu screamed awake curling up in a ball quickly looking for the thing that woke him up. Surprisingly my brother and Inosuke never woke up but I'm guess they got use to his screaming since he would get nightmares almost all the time so they just got used to it and slept through it. I quickly grabbed his shoulders and pulled him in for a hug. Oh how I missed his hugs, even though it was just last night he gave me one but who am I going to complain to? His hugs are always filled with warmth, and love, and passion, and safety even if the day he had was rough on him, he would still have the same type of hug. I just fell like I can't go a day without one of his hugs.
