Chapter 32

"I could never hate you. Human or not... you're still Y/N" he said. I just stare at him in sadness. He gently pulls me into a hug. I clutch onto his shirt as I bury my face into the crook of his neck. "We'll figure something out, okay?" He said. I nod my head lightly. Luana said I'm slowly turning into a demon. Gosh... why is something like this happening to me?! Is there a way for me to fix this? I don't wanna be a demon.

-Worry-

Y/N P.O.V

I stare sadly at myself in the mirror. I lift my hand and place on my cheek near my demonic eye. I can't believe that I had turned into a half-demon. Tears starts to build up in my human eye. I blink my eyes, making them flow down my cheek.

"Y/N..." I hear a soft voice. I turn my head to look at Tanjiro who's been silent the whole time. He slowly makes his way towards me. He gently grabs my hands, holding them tenderly in both of his. "Please don't cry. I'm sure Tamayo-San can help you..." he said, lifting his hand to wipe the tears away from my cheek.

"Who is Tamayo?" I asked. He smiles at me and starts to explain who and how he ended up meeting the woman named Tamayo. Apparently, when he's in Asakusa. He met Kibutsuji Muzan, where he swiftly turned a man into a demon. He was struggling to keep him at bay, and Tamayo and a young demon named Yushiro gave him a hand.

"Do you really think she'd be able to help me? The way Nezuko turned into a demon was because of Kibutsuji. But I just turned like this without a reason..." I said, as I lower my head. I feel a gentle hand on my cheek.

"I don't know for sure. But we don't know if we don't try" he said. I just stare at him sadly. He smiles softly at me. "Please don't be upset, Y/N. It hurts me to see you like this. I promise... we'll figure something out, okay?" He said. I just give him a small smile, lightly nodding my head.

"Y/N!!" A voice called out. My eyes widened, quickly knowing it's Muichiro. "Hey, Y/N! Are you home? I brought your favorite food!" He said again. I move to stand up as I start to panicked. I can't let Muichiro see me like this!

"Hey, hey hey hey..." Tanjiro said. He places his hands on my shoulders. I stare into his red eyes as he gives me a comforting smile. "Shh shh. It's okay. Just calm down, Y/N. I'm sure he's not going to judge you" he said. I just take a deep breath as I try to calm myself down.

He walks off and returns with Muichiro following him. I just stare at him, while covering my demon eye. I watch as Muichiro stares at me with a confused gaze.

"Is your eye hurting, Y/N?" He asked. I bit my lips, not knowing how to answer him. He walks up to me, gently placing his hand on the hand that's covering my eye. "Is your eye okay? Let me see..." he said. I back away from him, making my hand slips out of his hold.

"Tokito-Kun..." Tanjiro said, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. Muichiro turns his head to look at him. "I don't know how to say this. But um... Y/N's having a little problem right now. She's gonna need you to give her a reassurance that you wouldn't judge her" he said. I just lower my gaze, still covering my eye with my hand.

Muichiro turn his head to look at me. "I would never, Y/N. I'd never judge you..." he said. His voice sounds so soft and full of reassurance. He slowly raise his hand again, grabbing the hand that's covering my demon eye. "It's okay... trust me" he said. I turn to look at Tanjiro who nods his head. I close my eyes, taking a slow and deep breath. I slowly remove my hand, but keeping my demon eye close. "It's okay, Y/N..." he assured me.

I slowly and nervously open my demon eye. Muichiro's eyes widen at the sight of my eye. "I don't know how this could happen. I've turned into a half-demon now, Muichiro..." I said. Tears starts to build up in my human eye. I blink it to let them roll down my cheek. I turn my head away from Muichiro, feeling ashamed to have him sees me like this.

I feel a pair of arms gently wrapping around me, pulling me close until my head is resting a hard chest. I just bury my face deeper into his chest. The scent lets me know it's Muichiro.

"I don't care whatever state you're in, Y/N. Human or half-demon... you're still you. You're still the girl I love. Nothing will ever change, Y/N. I promise" he said. His hand gently running through my hair as he keeps me close. I choke out a sob as I cling onto him. He tighten his arms around me as an attempt to comfort me.

I feel another pair of arms. "Nothing will change the love I feel for you either, Y/N..." Tanjiro said, who had just joined the hug. I smile softly at their reassurance. I am so glad to be able to meet someone as amazing as these two.

The sound of crow catches our attention. The two of them pulls away from me. I walk towards the window, slowly opening it. I lift my hand, allowing her to land on my arm.

"Oyakata-Sama calls all the Hashira for a meeting!" She said. I feel panic growing within my heart. I turn to look at Tanjiro and Muichiro, staring at them with a worried gaze.

"I'm sure it'll be fine, Y/N" Tanjiro said, walking up to me as he gently slips his hand in mine. Muichiro gently grabs the other one as he smiles reassuringly at me. I bit my lips as I take a deep breath, trying to calm my nerve. How would the others react, when they find out I have turned into a half-demon? What if they won't welcome me after seeing me like this?
