Enmu X Muzan

Heat

Enmu POV

My mind is slowly returning to reality. I try to stretch, but my body feels heavy, and even that small movement tires it, making my pulse go up immediately, so i just stay the way i were. I try recalling what happened. I remember fighting that boy with hanafuda earrings, and a hashira as well. But...i don't remember killing them. And they clearly couldn't have killed me, since i'm alive. I also remember seeing Lord Muzan. That probably wasn't real. He would never save a lower moon. I take a deep breath, then exhale. Everything smells like him. This confuses me. I slowly open my eyes to find myself in someone else's room. This one is way fancier than mine or even the upper moon's. I sit up quickly, but my pulse goes up again, and i smack my chest. As i calm down i slowly look around thinking where could i be. The windows are big, with white curtains, and the walls are dark. The sheets are made of silk and I'm wearing a kimono that's not mine. I sniff the clothes i'm wearing. It smells like him too. The only thing i can think about is that i'm in his room, but that's absolutely impossible. Maybe this is just a dream. This has to be. But...is it possible to be thinking you're in a dream...while you're in a dream?

Muzan POV

I'm walking up and down again. I'm starting to get used to it. I want to let him rest for as long as possible, but i've been walking like this for at least eight hours. I can't take it anymore. I'm going in.

Enmu POV

The doorknob jiggles, and i see Lord Muzan's face peeking in. I shock. The demon slayers probably won, this would never happen in real life. He smiles then walks up to me. "You're awake!" he says softly, still smiling. Is this Heaven? No.  There's no way i'd make it there. But then what's going on? "Are you feeling okay?" he asks, and he looks a bit concerned. "Y-yes, i'm perfectly fine..." i answear, and my pulse goes up again, due to shock. "Are you sure? Don't you feel anything strange?" He asks like he's worried about me. But that's not possible either. About a week ago he wanted to kill me. Why would he change his mind all of a sudden? "N-no i'm alright" i tell him confused. He sits on the bed, facing me. He looks a little sad, but very serious. "Don't lie to me" i get a little scared, i don't know why exactly. "I-i'm not...i'm okay..." i didn't know if i should tell him how hard it is to move. "M-master...can you please tell me, what happened?"he only looks sad this time, but  right when he would start speaking, it turns to a kind of embarrassment.
"Well...when you were fighting those demon slayers...you got poisoned and I brought you here" he smiles a little but he avoids eye contact. I still don't understand why he would save me, but i don't want to keep asking questions. He probably has a reason to keep it to himself. "Thank you." That's all i could say, and i truely meant it. "I didn't want to lose my most loyal demon" he smiles, and he looks a bit more calm now. Hearing this makes me blush a little and i smile back at him. "I'm glad you're okay"he says softly. I blush even more. "I have some business to do in the town, so i'll leave for tonight, but i'll come back in the morning and check on you again." I nod. "In the mean time, make yourself at home. Everything is yours to discover, there's nothing you can't touch" he says. "Alright. Thank you for letting me stay here" he smiles at me again. "Don't overdo anything though." "I won't, i promise. And take care" i say, even though i know nothing and no one could hurt him. "Okay." He smiles warmly and pats my head, then stands up and leaves. As he closes the door i start blushing even harder than before, and my pulse goes even higher. I sweat a lot. He was so close to me! In the same height. I've always had to bow before him. I honestly can't wait to see the rest of his room.
