Die Young, Dream On

Nightmare

Pov: Inosuke

It's been so weird since Kanjiro got here. Even that yellow haired dumbass is acting weird, his face is all red! Look! "Hehe- your face is so red! Are ya sick or something, Monitsu??" He just whipped his head and made a really ugly face saying, "NO! I am not sick you weird boar!" What the hell?! "What did you just say to me?! You yellowed haired freak!" While we were trying to fight to our death, Kanjiro stepped in. "Hey, you guys, it's very disrespectful to make such a commotion while people are trying to eat. Now, let's calm down and eat, Kay?" Kanjiro always had a soothing voice, which is weird some times, speaking he makes me feel gushy whenever I do something good.

Pov: Tanjiro

Seeing them acting like themselves makes me feel calm on the inside for some odd reason, speaking the situation isn't even a calm environment. I put my hands on their shoulders saying to calm down. I didn't think I said anything wrong, but Inosuke seems taken back by my statement. "W-what? Did I say something wrong, Inosuke?" We stared at each other before he charged at me, hitting my head really, really hard... "Ow! I-Inosuke! What was that for? We shouldn't be fighting right here, right now! Do you understand?" "AHHHH" HUH? WHAT IS GOING ON?? "INOSUKE? What are you doing? That really hurt, ya know??" "Oh shut up, Kanjiro! Stop making me feel more gushy than I already do!" Huh?? Gushy? How? "What are you talking about, Inosuke? How did I make you gushy?? All I simply asked if you guys could stop fighting!"

Pov: Zenitsu

Oh my god. Just listening to these two gives me a migraine.. But. At least Tanjiro is back to himself. I couldn't help but smile. And I didn't mind letting my face turn bright red more. "Tanjiro.." I said. As quiet as possible, but they both heard me. "Yes, Zenitsu?" "Don't you dare ignore me now!" I took a deep breath. "Would you like to train later on tonight?

Pov: Zenitsu

"So, you just breathe like this!" "Like... like this?" He watched me carefully, as if he looked away my head would turn into a ballon and float away. "Yes! You're doing great, Zenitsu! Better than ever before!" I couldn't help but blush. After all. He knows how to make people feel great about themselves. "You. You really think I'm doing good?" I said, weakly. He gave a soft, sad look. "Of course I do. Since we met, I've always known you were extremely strong. You just needed more confidence in yourself, and I feel like you have that now. You just needed to feel comfortable in your own skin. That's all." He gave me a warm smile. I smiled back. But by the time we finished, it was already dinner time. "Ah, we should get some rest." Tanjiro said, reaching his hand towards me. I looked at his palm and back up at him. "T-thank you." We held hands for a few minutes just looking down. "M-..maybe we should get inside, eh? It's kinda cold. I don't want you to catch a cold, Zenitsu." I nodded, still hand in hand. We walked in the Mansion to Inosuke howling for food. "Inosuke! Calm down!" Shouted Tanjiro, letting loose of our hands. "Just go sit down, I'll get your food ready, okay?" Tanjiro walked towards him to take off his face mask. "There, I'll clean this up for you. Just go sit please." Surprisingly, he went to sit down. "You to Zenitsu. Go relax, I got your food as well." He said with a warm smile and tone. "But, I could get your food ready if you'd like-" He put his hand in the air. "No, no, it's okay. You see, I'm not really hungry." He said while rubbing his stomach. "But..." I said, but couldn't finish it. Knowing Tanjiro, he would've just made me sit down. "Here. Don't burn y'all's tongues, it's still very hot." He placed our bowls down and added some spices for us. "Now eat up. I'll go clean your mask, Inosuke." Before we could say anything, Tanjiro was already gone.

Pov: Tanjiro

When was the last time he had cleaned his mask? This thing is full of dirt and bits of his blood... Hopefully he will find this more comforting. It smells much better than before. Maybe I could clean his and Zenitsu's clothes while they are asleep. Now thinking about it. Mrs. Shinobu said Zenitsu had a nightmare the other day..
