I sink my body deeper into the water. I let my muscle relax at the warmth. It's been so long since we get to enjoy some free time like this, especially after we joined the Demon Slayer corps. So, I'm going to enjoy it while I can.

-Harsh Training-

Y/N P.O.V

Onii-Chan and I are both currently walking through the forest of the Swordsmith's village. We're trying to look for Haganezuka-San. But he's just impossible to find. I have no idea where to look anymore. He's surely still here somewhere. We just don't know the area enough to find him.

I hear a sound from the distance and grabs my brother's hand. I notice Muichiro is standing in front of a young boy. I hear him saying something about a key. But the young boy refuses to hand him the key.

I let out a gasp when he yanks the boy by his collar. I let go of Onii-Chan's hand and rush over to him. "Mui!! Cut that out. Why're you being so harsh on a kid?" I said. He turn his head and spotted me.

Onii-Chan take the chance to get the boy out of his grasp, leaving only the outer layer of his outfit in Muichiro's grasp. I turn to look at the boy to make sure he's okay. I turn to look at Muichiro and crosses my arms across my chest.

"Why are you being so harsh on him?" I asked. He let out a sigh and try to walk passed me. "Helloooo... Mui! Your girlfriend here is talking to you. Seriously... why are you harassing that kid?" I asked.

"I'm just trying to get him to give me the key... come on, you're not a kid anymore. Just hand it over" he said. He sounded a little cold when he's talking to the boy, with his hand outstretch. Onii-Chan walks over to him and slaps his hand. "What are you doing?" He asked.

"I don't know what's up with you right now. But I just can't handle it. You're lucky you're my sister's boyfriend or I'll beat you to a pulp!" He said. I let out a sigh while shaking my head. The boy finally gave up and hands the key to him. He turns around and wordlessly walks away. I turn to look at the boy.

"I'm sorry about Mui... he's not usually like this" I said. He just lower his head. I feel so bad for the boy. Mui is going too far. "Don't worry. I'll be sure to scold him later okay?" I said.

"Is that guy really your boyfriend?" He asked. I blink my eyes at what he said. I nod my head to let him know Mui is indeed my boyfriend. "I don't know what you see in that guy. He looks like a seaweed with his hair like that" he said. I snorted at what he said. He just called Mui a seaweed head. If Mui hears about this, he would surely be offended.

"Don't let him hear you say that, okay?" I said. He just crossed his arms and turn his head away. I smile softly and tilt my head slightly. "What was that key for? If you don't mind me asking..." I said. He turn his head to me and starts explaining how the key is used for a training doll.

We finally managed to find Mui. He's training with the dummy. I just watch as he fights swiftly and gracefully. He looks like he's gliding along the ground. I watch as he's finally done with the training. I wince when I realize he managed to break one of the doll's arm.

He turn his head and notices me. He walk towards me with the arm in his hand. The arm is holding a sword. "As amazing as your training session was. I still don't like how you treat that boy" I said, crossing my arms across my chest.

"Sorry... but he was being stubborn..." he said. I let out a sigh at what he said. Muichiro can sometimes acted cold towards others. But I know how he truly is. He's actually kind and caring. That's one of the things that I love about him.

"Anyway... it's almost dinner time. I'm going to go back to the inn and have some meals. Are you coming with me, Mui?" I asked. He places his finger on his chin as he seem to be thinking.

"No... I still have other things to do. But I'll visit you later, okay?" He said. I smile softly and nod my head. He walks closer to me. He lift his hand, gently cupping the side of my cheek. He leans down and places a soft kiss on my lips. "I love you..." he said.

"I love you too..." I said. He places a quick kiss on my forehead before pulling away completely. He gently pat my head and turns around, walking away. I turn around and make my way towards where I assume my brother and the boy are. He's probably trying to console the boy after he witnessed what happened to the doll. I kinda wish that Mui wouldn't be so harsh. But, that's just how he is.

Time-skip

The little boy whom I know now as Kotetsu. He wants us to avenge the destruction on the doll. But I told him that I couldn't fulfill his wish. I don't want to fight Muichiro. I know that I'm going to lose anyway. My boyfriend is a Hashira for a reason. He's too strong for me.

But Onii-Chan seems to agree to give the doll a try. He wants to try training with it, hoping he'd get stronger. He seems annoyed because of what Mui had done. I just hope that he wouldn't ended up hurting himself.

Plus... I have no idea who to cheer on for if those two end up having a sparring session. I mean on one hand there's Onii-Chan who is my brother, and on the other hand there is Muichiro who is my boyfriend. I really don't want to watch the two of them fighting, since they might ended up hurting each other.

I wince as Onii-Chan fell right on his butt. "Ow ow ow... I'm sorry for breaking the sword you lent me..." he said, as Kotetsu rushes over to check on him. I feel a drop of sweat running down the side of my head as I walk up to him.

"Are you okay, Onii-Chan?" I asked. He turn his head to look at me and nod his head. He still looks in pain though. I let out a sigh and shakes my head. I stare at him as I focus on my power.

"Thank you, sis

"Thank you, sis..." Onii-Chan said. I nod my head and move to sit on the ground as he sits up. "But you really shouldn't use it too much. Remember your health..." he said.

"And YOU really shouldn't be forcing yourself like this, Onii-Chan... you're going to get sick, and you know I won't just do nothing about it" I said, rolling my eyes a little. He just let out a soft sigh at what I said. In the end, he just lifts his hand and gently ruffles my hair. "Hey!" I protested, swatting his hand away from my hair.

I huffed and cross my arms as he let out a laugh, while I pouted. I can't stay mad at him, because in the end I just laugh along. This's just how it is to have siblings. We would bicker at one point, but still care for each other.
