Hello lovelies, so sorry for another long wait, personal life comes before these stories, and being in school will always take priority over this, I hope you all understand.
I also realized how short this chapter is and you all deserve better, so I will work on making the next chapter longer, but not too long, but I hope this is better than nothing. <3

"No- I just felt as if someone was watching me" you muttered, refocussing on your plate of food. "Odd..." you muttered under your breath.

"Well, it was likely nothing, but perhaps someone here was intrigued by your presence, we have some inquisitive people here!" Kyojuro announced, taking a bite of his food. "UMAI!" he yelled out quickly after before taking another bite. "UMAI!"

You ignored the yelling and sat down, steading yourself on the chair, because it was off the ground, almost like a stool. You eventually made it on with little difficulty and began eating your meal, tuning out Kyojuro's antics.

"Are you enjoying your stay here?" Giyu's voice suddenly came, catching your attention. As he stared at you, you lifted your eyes and met his ocean-blue ones. A small blush adorned your cheeks as you quickly wiped the excess pasta sauce from your face.

"Uh- yeah! The atmosphere is amazing, I really feel comfortable and welcome here. I may not be with my family or friends, but it doesn't change the fact that you all have done something that practically saved my life" you muttered, looking down, a smile creeping onto your face. "I love it here" you trailed off, looking out the giant window to see the city.

"So that's where they have been hiding" his voice rang through the building.

"Y-Yes sir, I managed to get a few photos for evidence" a shorter man answered, holding a brown folder.

"You did good Kaigaku, leave the folder on my desk, I will call you if your work is needed again" The man leaned back in his chair, his piercing red eyes shining in the dark. Kaigaku merely nodded, placing the folder down before rushing out of the room.

"Kokushibo" the man demanded. A tall man walked through the door quickly after, faster than the eye could blink.

"Yes, Master Muzan?" Kokushibo asked, placing his hands behind his back.

"I need you to visit this address and confirm that our enemy resides there, don't make any moves and simply spy. If you are found, kill whoever stands in your way and get here without leaving any evidence" Muzan spoke simply, flipping through the many pictures that were laid out on his desk.

"Yes sir" Kokushio spoke blandly, turning his back to Muzan and reaching his towards the door.

"One more thing" Muzan spoke suddenly, causing Kokushibo to stop in his tracks.

"What is it, sir?" Kokushibo asked, not turning to face Muzan.

"Take Douma with you, but make sure he doesn't get into any of his horny antics, I don't need whores coming to this place" Muzan flatly responded, holding a picture up to his face, inspecting it carefully. Kokushibo merely nodded and left the room to fetch Douma. "Your little organization is no longer safe Ubuyashiki~" Muzan slurred, a large grin adorning his face.

(2nd person PoV):

Kyojuro and Giyu both took you back to your room and left to continue training. Your back hit the wall gently as you stared at the white ceiling, but a knock gained your attention.

"Come in" you responded. The door slowly opened to reveal Genya standing there with a small blush on his cheeks. "Oh, hello Genya" you smiled looking at the adorable man-child.

"I- uh, Shinobu requested for you, so I- uh came to retrieve you" Genya responded, his eyes darting all over the room, avoiding your eyes at all costs. His ears were a bright red as he fiddled with his shirt. You giggled at his adorable antics.

"Alright Genya" you giggled, earning Genya's attention. A small smile adorned his face as he watched you laugh. You slowly walked to the door, but Genya stuck his arm out for you to take so he could assist you down the corridor. "Thank you" you responded, holding onto his arm with your right hand.

You both walked down the hallway in comfortable silence. The longer you walked, the more you realized how tall Genya was, he wasn't as tall as Tengen or Gyomei, but since his first debut at the final selection, he had grown quite a bit. You slightly squeezed your hand around his arm, gaining his attention.

"Do you need something?" he asked, looking down at you.

"Oh- I was just thinking about how much you have grown" you muttered, earning a small blush on your cheeks.

"How would you know how much I have grown?" Genya asked, looking at you quizzically.

"Oh- in the show, I remember you weren't much taller than Tanjiro during the final selection" you replied, looking off a bit. You didn't notice Genya's face burst into a deep crimson as he replayed the scene in his head.

"You- you know about what happened during the final selection?" Genya muttered, looking down.

"Yeah- and how you grabbed that girl by the ha-" you were cut off as you felt your get pulled down. You looked down and noticed Genya was in a tight ball, his cheeks and ears were a bright red as he shunned himself for mistreating that girl at final selection over some stupid sword.

"I hate that moment" Genya muttered. You felt yourself clam up about the fact you brought up a bad memory of his, causing him to act this way. You bent down and placed a hand on his back, rubbing small circles on it.

"It's alright Genya, you were young and didn't know any better, besides, you grew into a better person in the end" you replied. Genya's head shifted to the side slightly, listening to the words you were telling him. "We all do stupid things when we are young, so don't dwell on something you can't change anymore, just learn from your mistakes and keep on living" you reassured, wrapping your arms around Genya's shoulder, giving him a hug. "I'm sorry for bringing up a bad memory of yours, I will take your feelings into more consideration next time" you apologized, leaning your head into Genya's.

"Don't worry about it, but I do have to get up-" Genya started. You didn't have time to respond before Genya stood up, hauling your body with him. Your arms were securely wrapped around his neck now as he stood up. Your feet dangled off of the ground as you stared into Genya's purple eyes. A small blush landed on your cheeks as you realized how close your faces were to each other. Genya was in no better shape, his face was brighter than a tomato, and his eyes darted all over the hallway.

"Uh- I'll help you down" Genya muttered. His large hands landed on your waist as he slowly helped you land on your feet gently.

"Uh- thank you Genya" you muttered, looking down and rubbing your arm.

"It was uh- no problem, but let's get to Kocho's office now" Genya responded, holding his arm out for you to take. You gladly took his arm as he led you down the hallway once again.
