A New Flame (Sanemi x Deaf Reader)

Chapter 12

-3rd Person POV-

Tomioka looked up, getting ready to put in his answer to Ubuyashiki-san. "I'm not fluent, but I do know some sign." He said quietly, as the other looked at him with judging him with harsh eyes. Everyone was silent for a while until they noticed Mitsuri thinking.

"You good, Mitsuri-san?" Obanai asked showing worry toward the female. "Ahh! Yes, I am okay and I am in fact fluent with sign language as Rengoku-san had me learn it as part of his training. Im thinking if this is because of (Y/n)..." Mitsuri said before looking up towards the deaf female.

'How am I going to get her attention.' She thought, getting embarrassed as she waved her hand in the air getting the attention of (Y/n).

"Hm-uh?" (Y/n) would respond as she moved off the porch to sit on the gravel with her fellow Hashira. *Yes?* she signed, sitting in front of Mitsuri.

(Gyomei, Muichiro, Tomioka, Shinbo, Shinazugawa, Mitsuri, Obanai, Uzui)

(Meeting line up)

°How long have you been Rengoku-san tsuguko?° Mitsuri asked, looking in front of her.

(Y/n) thought for a while thinking of whether now was the best time to talk about her relations with Kyojuro.

(Y/n) then responds to the pink head's question by signing, *I trained flame breathing with him since the beginning He was just better at it.* She signed, getting a little emotional thinking about the good times.

"What did she say?" A curious Uzui asked as he leans forward toward Mitsuri and Sanemi.

Mitsuri then looked surprised as it took her a minute to process how fast she signs. "She said she known him since the beginning, but I don't see any of that being the case." She said, looking back towards the girl.

-Sanemi's POV-

'Of course these idiots wouldn't understand.' I thought to myself as pinky struggled to read (Y/n)'s sign.

*I watched Kyojuro's father teach him and his little brother Flame Breathing. And a few years later Kyojuro-san taught me how to do it.* I watched as she signed, and I looked over to see Mitsuri overwhelmed with all the signing.

I sighed before I helped her out with the 'deciphering' of the 'symbols.' "(Y/n) said, she watched their- Rengoku's father teach him and his little brother Flame Breathing. And later on Rengoku taught (Y/n)." I said huffing a little as the others looked at me with amazement.

"I didn't know you were that fluent." Shinobu said, clapping a little as she told me to ask her (Y/n) wanted to get checked up.

*Bug eyes wants to know if you want to get a check up at the butterfly mansion to see if they can help with your hearing.* I signed as I got a little uncomfortable as the other stared at me.

I heard pinky snickering, so I assumed she translated the 'bug eyes' from my sentence.

"Ara ara~ Shinazugawa-san what did you say?" Shinobu said, dangerously smiling, planning my doom.

'She wishes' I stared her down before (Y/n) pokes me getting my attention so she can sign to me.

She looked at me confused for a second before looking at Shinobu. (Y/n) grabbed Shinobu's hands, nodding with a smile.

Mitsuri then pokes (Y/n) getting all of our attention. °Have we met Before?°

'What the hell does pink cheeks mean?' I thought as I turned to (Y/n).

-(Y/n)'s POV-

'I have met you before, but how in the hell am I gonna explain that!' I mentally freaked out as I messed around with my haori.

*I have seen you around, but you have never seen me, at least I don't think you have.* I signed as I avoided eye contact.

'This is awkward' I sweat dropped as I looked back towards them. 'I mean Mitsuri was the second tsuguko of Kyojuro-ni, so I did see her a lot around the estate.' I thought

°Where would you have seen her before?° Shinobu slowly signs as she messes up the sign 'before' as 'after'.

It took Shinazugawa, Mitsuri, and I a second to process the sign 'after' as 'before'.

"Hmwm." I awkwardly mumbled as I shifted in my spot. *I should probably get out of the way that I am related to Kyojuro-san* I signed, as Mitsuri gasped I think, while Shinobu kinda got the jist of the sentence also gasped.

-3rd Person POV-

Mitsuri and Shinobu gasped at what was 'said', while Tomioka raised his eyebrows in surprise, but soon calmed down.

Shinazugawa wasn't surprised in the least as he already had his chance to be surprised a few months ago.

Mitsuri suddenly hugged (Y/n), having the girl in her arms to flinch, but soon got crushed by the death gripping hug.

"Eeeek! That would explain why your hair looks alike! Aaaah!" Mitsuri freaked out after she let go of her hug.

Shinobu was just clapping in excitement at the news of (Y/n) being related to Rengoku.

"What is going on?" Gyomei and Muichiro asked, while Muichiro focuses on the situation.

"(Y/n) seems to be related to Rengoku-san somehow." Shinobu said with a close eye smile. She then turned to Shinazugawa. "Ask (Y/n) what she means by related."

Shinazugawa just stared at Shinobu for a few minutes. °Are you stupid? She said she was related, so that would mean siblings.° He responded salty as he signed.

Uzui then adds up into the conversation saying, "That is quite flamboyant, but Shinazugawa How would you know this? You seem to calm"

The wind picks up and as Uzui head pieces start jingling in the wind. °She ran into me months ago with Rengoku as I was heading to the Master's estate.°

This comment from Shinazugawa got a hit in the head multiple times from (Y/n). In defense of the hits, Shinazugawa grabbed her hands, flipping her over his head.

Surprise to everyone, (Y/n) landed on her feet as she was back bending since Shinazugawa still had her hands.

"Ara ara~ that wasn't nice Shinazugawa" Shinobu said, as she had a vein popping on her forehead.

°She hit me first!° I retaliated as (Y/n) jumped back over my head. She then flipped me off with a smile. 'This bitch!' I thought jokingly to myself as I calmed myself, so I didn't do something dumb.

When then all heard Gyomei rub his beads as he was quite interested in (Y/n). "Younger or older? What does she look like?"

'He had some good questions' I thought before asking her if Kyojuro was older. In this time Uzui 'flamboyantly' gave Gyomei some description of (Y/n).

*Younger, he is 11 minutes older.* (Y/n) answered the question, as we all decided it was best to migrate inside the estate as it was getting too dark.

"She is younger, eek! So cute!" Mitsuri said, getting excited again as she didn't catch the last part of what she said.

"How old is she? She looks kinda young" Muichiro asked, as he laid his hands behind him.

"20." I responded as I continued to eat the food that was provided in front of us.

"HUH?!?" Everyone else yelled.
