Muichiro gave Y/n a small smile. When they reached the butterfly mansion, the surprised mirror hashira was greeted by a hoard of tearful butterfly girls.

"We missed you so much, Y/n!" Naho cried, wiping her snotty face on to the mirror hashira's haori. Kiyo nodded in agreement and hugged her leg tightly. Y/n laughed. She hadn't seen them all since she was in hospital... It felt nice to see her little friends again.

Muichiro watched, chuckling slightly. He was glad that the girls welcomed his companion, he stood back and smiled softly at their reunion.

He loved watching their close friendship. Y/n had made so many friends so fast, even with her tendency to get nervous. Muichiro was so proud of her, but he felt a bit jealous...

I wonder how she does it. Her face is so expressive and bright, the opposite of mine.

The mist hashira wondered if they could really be considered a couple, since they were completely different personalities. The thought made him feel a little down, and he felt his heart sinking.

Y/n looked up from her hug, and saw Muichiro standing alone. Despite his blank expression, she could tell he was feeling a little dejected... A lightbulb lit up in her head. Y/n hatched a plan, and bent down to whisper in Naho's ear. The young girl then passed it onto Kiyo, who passed it on to Sumi.

"Well girls, we should get going now!" She linked arms with Muichiro and pretended to lead him out the door. Whilst he was distracted, she gave the girls a thumbs up behind her back.

"KYAAA!!" They cried in unison, jumping onto Muichiro's back. Y/n quickly joined the tickle pile, rolling on top of him and pinning him down so that he couldn't escape.

The room erupted with playful shouts, Y/n was almost crying tears of laughter. Muichiro's blank stare was broken by a face of shock, before being replaced by a rare, genuine smile.

He couldn't escape, so he laughed aswell.

He was pinned under her, and the other 3 girls were tickling him all over, making him writhe around a bit. He'd never been good with young kids, so having them all piled on him like this felt strange... But wholesome.

(Flashbacks to when he slapped Kotetsu 💀)

Despite his shock, he loved the sound of laughter ringing in his ears. His face was a bit red from the pressure of their weight, but he didn't mind.

Honestly, I'm not even going to try to push them off!

This seemed like fun, he couldn't contain his laughter anymore. Bursting out into shouts of laughter, he looked up at Y/n with tears in his eyes from all the tickling. When he made eye contact with her, Y/n couldn't help but blush and stare.

He's so sweet...

She realised that she was sitting in his lap- and immediately went red. The girls were still tickling him... But Y/n knew that he noticed her flusteredness.

Muichiro's ears were pink, and he could feel his heart beating fast now. He couldn't help it, now that she was this close...

Am I having deja vu? Why is that?

He could still see the girls tickling him, but he was focusing on Y/n now.

He looked at her directly with piercing blue eyes.

Her blushing face was so cute, it made him want to kiss her... Y/n saw the look in his eyes, and shook her head.

Not here. Not infront of the girls.

She rolled off of him and layed down at his side, sweaty with laughter. Naho, Kiyo and Sumi piled on top of them, giggling and kicking around. Y/n looked up when she saw the door open.

"Hmm?" Kanao looked confused as she entered the room, scanning the pile of people at her feet.

Is that... the mist hashira? I haven't seen him around here since... Her eyes wandered to Y/n, who was still tickling Sumi. Oh, that explains it.

Muichiro layed next to her on the floor, laughing with her too. He was tired, but he felt so happy right now..

He saw her look at him, and felt himself starting to blush again.

He smiled.

The tickling stopped for a few seconds, and Muichiro saw Y/n look at him. She had noticed his smile, and the proud look in her eyes spoke a thousand words. Muichiro looked away, unable to hold eye contact.

I want to kiss her so badly.

He felt a bit frustrated right now, but he could be patient...

Muichiro looked a lot happier now, and Y/n was glad for him. Kanao approached them slowly and leaned over. The two hashira blinked at her, slightly embarrassed.

"H-hey, Kanao!" Y/n smiled, her cheeks red. She wasn't exactly doing anything that commanded respect right now... But it was alright. If anyone respected the demon slayers ranking system, it was Kanao.

Muichiro looked up at Kanao as she watched him with an empty expression. The mist hashira looked away, his cheeks burning. Once again his eyes kept drifting to Y/n's face, and he found it impossible to look at anything else but her.

Kanao stared at them for a moment more, her expression blank. Suddenly, her eyes widened and her skin paled slightly.

Y/n was confused. Kanao kept looking at Muichiro, and then back at her. She turned to look at Mui to figure out what she was looking at, and her heart skipped a beat.

His uniform had become dishevelled in the ruckus, the open collar revealing his neck... Kanao was staring straight at a dark hickey on his collarbone.

Y/n's eyes widened and she shot up from the ground. Naho fell off her with a squeak, but she didn't look back. She just ran... ran out of the butterfly mansion, out of Kanao's sight... Muichiro was so airheaded, he didn't realise what was going on until his memories whacked him in the face like a truck.

...

(Last night)

Can I... give you a hickey?

Muichiro looked away nervously, and waited for her answer. He was so inexperienced, he'd never even thought about something like this before... Y/n noticed the look on his face and smiled bashfully.

"Mhm, but I'm going first."

She laughed and pulled him into her, latching her lips onto his neck and biting softly as his skin. Muichiro gasped, he hadn't been prepared for her to do that... But he didn't push her away.

Y/n pulled off him, her lips making a popping sound as she did so. Her eyes widened as she saw the mark on Muichiro's collarbone, it was much bigger and darker than she'd intended.

"Damn, you're too pale Mui, you bruise so easily..." She mumbled, before planting a gentle kiss on the sore patch she had just abused. "Guess you'll just have to give me one back and even the score."

...

"Shit." The mist hashira mumbled, his ears flaming scarlet.

Muichiro nimbly darted to his feet, looking around for wherever Y/n had ran off to. His heart was racing.

He desperately called after her as he spotted her sprinting out of the room. "Y/NNN! WAIT!"

...

A/N: Girl this shit is getting messy 😃🤭 I live for the drama tbh
