Getting Better // SaneGiyuu 🌻

Chapter 4

(Hello, my children! [yes im adopting you, no you cant do anything about it] I now present to you a chapter that took me two days! I have a little bit of dilemma; I don't know who I'm gonna end up pairing Mitsuri with :/ Tell me if you want her to be with Shinobu or Obanai, because idk. Please enjoy this shitty chapter. ILYYYYY ❤️❤️❤️)

It had been about 15 minutes since Sanemi and Genya had made it home. The medicine Giyuu had administered seemed to be taking effect, so Genya went to bed.

Sanemi made a mental note to check on him in the morning and settled down on the living room sofa. He went over the day's events in his head, and of course, that brought the hug back to the front of his mind.

Realization hit him like a bus.

He rubbed his eyes before he threw back his head and sighed. There was a very big part of him that regretted it, given he had just learned Giyuu's name that day. A very, very, VERY small part of him wanted to do it again. To card his hands through that messy hair and wrap Giyuu's slender frame in his arms.

Those thoughts were pushed to the back of his mind almost immediately.

Sanemi chose the path of rationality and decided the best thing to do was not to mention it if he ever saw Giyuu again.

Sanemi got up and dragged himself to bed.

Shinobu had her hand over her mouth. Mitsuri was sitting next to her, mouth slightly agape. Both of them were equally surprised.

Giyuu ended up spilling everything to them almost as soon as he got home. About Tanjiro, Sanemi's brother, and most importantly, the hug.

Once Giyuu had gotten to that part, Shinobu's eyebrows had shot up faster than he thought was possible and Mitsuri began squealing.

Giyuu was confused. He'd convinced himself that it was just a display of gratitude and there was no reason to blow it out of proportion. There was that naggy little voice at the back of his head, but it was pretty easy to shut down.

"Well, Tomioka-san, sounds like you've had quite the night. Get some rest, mkay?" Shinobu said with a hint of authority.

Giyuu complied with no resistance at all.

Shinobu and Mitsuri were sitting down on Shinobu's bed, talking about nothing in particular.

"Hey, Mitsuri, have you ever heard of fated pairs?" Shinobu asked casually.

"No, what are they?"

"Allow me to enlighten you. I was on Twitter when this article about fated pairs showed up on my feed. Out of curiosity, I decided to read it."

Mitsuri beckoned her to continue.

"I'm quoting this directly from the article. 'A very rare occurrence, fated pairs are similar to what some people would see as a soulmate. Scientists have confirmed that this connection forms solely between an alpha and omega, but the rest of the science behind it is uncharted territory. What they do know is that it's an incredibly strong bond, with both biological and psychological components.' " Shinobu paused for a moment to catch her breath before continuing.

"Tests have shown that the omega will react VERY strongly to the alpha's pheromones, while not reacting well to other pheromones. Enough to where the alpha can jumpstart the omega's heat if there were enough pheromones present." Another pause. "As for the psychological components, instincts will be relatively stronger. That's all the information we have as of XX/XX."
