Muichiro POV.

We arrived after an hour or so and I headed to the ward right away and they treated her wounds, it wasn't major but it wasn't also minor, the fight went on for so long that it dragged her body way past exhaustion and way past her limit so she might be asleep for a week or so. That's what they told me

Author POV.

If before Muichiro wouldn't visit anyone, not even Ito when someone gets injured now he never left her side, not to even eat, he never left her side for anything, he was compelled to stay with her until she woke up, even after she woke up

"Muichiro-san you should take a rest for a bit"
Tanjiro said but Muichiro didn't listen, it seems he wouldn't listen to anyone except Ito, the rest have tried to make him rest but none ever worked

"You really need to rest Muichiro, Ito wouldn't like to hear that you haven't slept and eaten for days now will she?"
It finally got through him and he started thinking but rejected because that would mean he'd have to separate from her

"No-'
Shinobu knew that he would say that so she cut him off

"Eat and sleep, even if it is beside her as long as you're healthy. That's what she'll think and we both know it"
Muichiro knew that what Shinobu was saying is true and after thinking it over he finally did as what Shinobu told him and got some sleep while holding her hand of course, despite him being an airhead he has a clingy side(that's what I'd like to think) that he never shows. After more than 12 hours Ito's eyes slowly fluttered open and she looked around, remembering the events that happened before and wondered where Muichiro was when she felt something on her hand and saw that it was Muichiro's hand which was intertwined with hers. She instantly felt her heart skip a beat and she tried to distract herself by looking at his face but she just ended up falling deeper for him

Ito POV.

He's so...perfect. His eyes, his face, his hands, everything, everything about him is perfect that I can't believe I'm training under his wing. Combing my hand through his hair feels so satisfying, it's so soft. I can't believe a man this perfect is right in front of me

"O-oh goodmorning"
I whispered and smiled, his eyes immediately shot wide open and he sat up straight

"Y-you're awake"
I giggled

"Indeed I am"
I said and I could see a tiny smile on his face

"Thank you for saving me in that last minute, if you hadn't then I would've been dead by now, that was my limit so I'm thankful you arrived"
I smiled and he became gloomy

"If you..."
What was that?

"If I hadn't arrived o wouldn't know what to do"
Muichiro...

"But you did, so thank you-"
I thanked him but he suddenly put his forehead on mine

"Are you okay? Do you need sleep?"
He shook his head slowly but I knew he needed to rest

"You know I can also tell when you're lying"
I said and he lifted his face away from mine

"But I don't want to"
Why not?

"Then sleep beside me then"
I said but the bed I'm on won't fit us two so I suggested that he slept on the bed next to me but I didn't expect him to put the two beds side by side. I was stunned and blushing

"When you're fine again, when you're free to go outside to take a walk there's something I want to tell you"
He stated as he stared right into my eyes making me feel a certain emotion from it but I can't say what that was
