Jealousy

Y/n's POV

"Who is he."

Tokito sama asked in a chilled tone, but not one as icy as before. 'What? What kinda question is that...?' I wondered. "Um, Tokito sama who exactly do you mean...?" As I asked the question his grip around my wrists got slightly stronger. It did not hurt but I couldn't move my hands because of how strong her was holding them against the wall. 

"The one with the earrings." He replied. I started to look away from his eyes because of the insane pressure I felt from them. I started to turn my head away from him also out of embarrassment from our faces being this close. "That's Tanjiro san. I've known him for about a year i think."

Since Tokito sama was holding my wrists against the wall with only one hand, he used his other hand to gently but assertively rotate my head so I was facing him again. He kept that hand on my cheek and I swear my face felt so hot I thought I would catch fire. 

"What's your relationship with him." Tokito sama asked. 'What's with all these questions? Why does he care about Tanjiro san so much?'

"I'm good friends with his little sister, she's my age. Also I guess we are kinda friends we talk whenever we see each other and are friendly." I answered.

Tokito sama narrowed his eyes as he started shooting a lot more questions at me. "What was happening during training. Why did the yellow thing cling to you. Why did he call you his future wife. Why does that Tanjiro guy touch you so much. Why do you call so many other people by their first names but don't call me by mine." His voice got deeper and more angry as he spoke. 

My eyes widened in surprise as he kept asking the questions. I just stared at Tokito sama unsure of what to say. He sighed as he let go of my cheek and wrist and turned around as he started to walk away slowly. 'He remembers so many things- How? I feel bad if I don't answer him he still seems angry. I don't want him to be angry at me. I want him to be happy. I don't know how to answer his questions though. Should i change the story to make sure he is happy? What would then be the correct story to tell him to make him happy? Or should I just tell him the truth?' 

I started to feel a deep pit in my stomach as I saw Tokito sama reaching for the door of his room to leave. 'I feel like if I don't answer him now, he's gonna go somewhere and not come back.'

I ran towards him and put a hand on his shoulder and spun him around to face me. He looked surprised at my sudden action. I started to explain.

"I was helping with training, and we were doing tag. I slipped on some water but Tanjiro san helped me and made sure I didn't fall on my face. Zenitsu san clings to people a lot and he wants to get married before he dies. He proposes to almost every single girl he meets and I'm no different. I don't like him in any way and he already has a crush on Nezuko chan so it means nothing. Tanjiro san was just trying to be nice and friendly." 

Tokito sama's eyes widened as I blurted out all the words. I had to think about his last question though. 'I guess I do call the people I'm closest to by their first name even if I add honorifics. Should I answer this question truthfully too? Or should i pretend like I forgot about that question?' 

I decided to just try and explain for the name thing too. "Kanae sama and Shinobu sama told me to call them by their first names and they are like sisters to me. I call Kanao, Aoi and Nezuko chan by their first names because they are close friends of mine and they are a sister-type presence to my life. Tanjiro san, Zenitsu san and Inosuke san are almost the same age as I am and their rank is lower than mine, it felt appropriate to call them that way. They also insisted I call them by their first names. I don't call you by your first name because I wasn't sure if I was allowed to, and I didn't wana be disrespectful Tokito sama..." My voice lowered towards the end of my sentence.

"Call me Muichiro."
