ꔫ -chapter one, 'a prince', tan's pov- ꔫ
ꔫ -flashback- ꔫ
My eyes shimmered at the dog in front of my eyes.
"Oh Nezuko! Look at this one!" I said. She gasped as she lays eyes on the dog.
"Oh em gee! This one is perfect," she said.
"Yes!! Let's get him!" I agreed.
ꔫ - end of flashback- ꔫ
Well now I'm walking home with an adorable puppy with the name 'inosuke'. I feel like that's more of a human name, but it's cute.
It's hard to believe a puppy like this exists. It has fluffy blue-black fur and big green eyes.
"Hey Tanjiro, I'm hanging out with Aoi and Kanao today. I'm counting on you to take care of the puppy," she tells me.
"Okay!" Once we get home, there's a car waiting for her. "Bye," she says before hopping in. I wave bye to her before waking inside with the puppy. We had spent day preparing for him so everything will be easy. I fed him and everything before heading to bed.
"Awh aren't you the cutest~" "good night little one," I say before laying a kiss on his head.
Just before I fall asleep someone taps me on the shoulder.
"Hm? Nezuko..? WAHH!" I scream. "W-who are you?!"
"The name's Inosuke, and lower your voice," he scowls.
"I-Inosuke? That's you? But you were just a dog a few seconds ago!" I say.
"I know but didn't you also kiss me a few seconds ago?"
"I-I think so.. yeah," I respond.
"Mhm. That caused me to turn into a human," he tells me. I look him up and down, beautiful green eyes and black hair with blue tips that reached his shoulders, and a gorgeous face.
"Ehh okay.." he leans in really close to me, looking me in the eyes, but also inspecting me, he's so close that our noses are almost touching, and I'm sure my face is a red hot mess.
He hums, "are you alright?"
"I-I'm fine," I assure him. All of this was hard to process.. my cute puppy had turned into a gorgeous man and is now looking right at me. What am I supposed to tell Nezuko? I sigh.
"What is it?" He asks.
"I-it's just.. I have a sister coming home tonight. What do I do?"
"Well your options are to either turn me back into a dog, or tell her what happened," he says.
"Okay.. how do I turn you back?" He smirks.
"You have to give me a kiss," he says, pointing at his lips.
"W-what?! On the lips?" He nods.
ꔫ -ino's pov- ꔫ
I know it doesn't have to be on the lips, but I just wanted him to kiss me. His reaction is priceless. He's redder than I thought possible! I sit there, waiting and looking at him, my eyes filled with wonder and my mouth curved into a smug smile.
He slowly leans in and gives me a soft kiss on the lips. I feel like I'm on cloud nine! I've been in a situation like this once but it didn't feel how this did, maybe because it was on the forehead and not my lips. I only earn my ears and tail. My eyes widen after a minute of waiting.
"I-I.. why wont I turn back?" I cry. "Wait I've got an idea," I tell him.
"Alright what is it?"
"You have to kiss me again," I say.
He burrows his face into his hands, and after a good three seconds he leans in to press his soft lips against mine, this one less hesitant than the last. Sure enough, I was a dog again.
"J-just go to sleep.." he mutters turning around. I lay in his arms and lay my head down, quickly falling asleep, just like a dog.
ꔫ -time skip- ꔫ
"Arf arf!" I bark.
"Hm? Oh good morning Inosuke," he says.
"You want me to turn you back?"
"Arf." He kisses me on the head, and I turn into a human.
"Morning~" I say.
"How does that even work.." he mumbles. I shrug.
"Say, what would your name be, gorgeous?" I ask him.
"I- eh.." he covers his face with his hands.
"No? Well I'm fine with calling you gorgeous for awhile," I tease.
"No.. it's Tanjiro," he says, his face still burried into his palms.
"Cute. Well I'm hungry," I say.
"Uh.. do you want dog food?"
"Hell no! I nearly threw up eating that!" I crunch my nose.
"Oh, I see. Then I'll just feed you normal food," he says. "I'll be right back," he tells me.
"Hey Inosuke, you can come out now," he calls out after a minute. I walk out, and head to the kitchen, sneaking up behind him, pulling him into a hug from behind.
"Hey Mentaro~" I love seeing him flustered!
""I-it's Tanjiro.." he says.
"Mm whatever," I say, pulling him closer.
"Tanjiro! I'm home! Sorry I got back so late," his sister says. I know Tanjiro doesn't want her to find out, but he just freezes up, so I grab his chin and kiss him on the lips, not wanting to let go, but eventually I turn back into a dog.
"Tanjiro? Are you okay? Your face is really red! Do you have a fever?" She exclaimed. I smirk knowing I am the reason he is blushing.
"O-oh.. i uh..I'm fine..but.. I already fed Inosuke," he lies.
"Hm that's good," she narrowed her eyes, "did you eat something yet?"
"I'm about to," he responds
"Okay," she said walking away. Gonpachiro exhales, as if he was holding his breath.
"Don't worry Inosuke, I have food for you here," he says, bending down to kiss my head. I turn back into a human and quickly devour the food.
"Thanks," I say.
I follow him back to his room, hopping onto his bed.
"So like.. did you have other owners before?"
"Not really owners but yeah one other time," I say.
"And they also had to kiss you on the lips?" He asks.
"Uh well.. I kinda lied about that. It doesn't have to be on the lips," I admit.
"Are you serious!" He says, receiving a nod.
"Oh my- ugh. I mean I guess I enjoyed kissing you so whatever," he says, causing my cheeks to earn a tinted pink.
"You did?" He hums and then nods.
