Silently in love - Sanegiyuu

22 / Pastries and Training

GIYUU POV

I fell asleep (unusually). My eyes felt heavy with tears, so i'm guessing I cried a lot last night. I argued with Sanemi. I don't remember what I did after I shut the door. I'm mad. But I miss him too. It's my fault that we argued and all that, and I should make it right..

I got up straight away and searched around my estate cause I don't know where Sanemi actually went last night. He definitely left my estate.. He's not anywhere to be seen. I feel bad.. I yelled at him to get out too. He'll not want to come back here. I went back in my room for a second to put Demon slayer uniform on and went out to look for him, cause i don't know. I guess it was on my mind. The next hashira meeting is tomorrow, so I guess i'm back on duty then.

Firstly, I walked to his estate. No good. He wasn't there . Then I walked to a spot where I saw him training a while ago. Wasn't there either? I then walked to a spot where all the Hashiras hangout, I didn't want to go there but I had to look for Him. I watched the other Hashira from far away but no sight oh him, he wasn't there either. It's Hopeless...

I know yesterday I was mad and upset, but I get it now.. He just wanted to hangout with his Best friend, I guess. I decided to train today. I lost a few days since my injury. I went to my favourite training spot, Hidden enough that I'm alone there. I used a Wooden Katana to train instead of my actual one. I swung at the trees , wasn't very good training but oh well. I was distracted by thinking about sanemi and all the stuff we said yesterday. But I blurted out how I felt with Iguro, how I wanted to be his friend at first. And I shouldn't have said that. Sanemi would think i'm an idiot for thinking i could have been friends with Iguro...

A couple hours later I was taking a break and I saw someone coming here. Sanemi. I kinda gave up looking for him, but now I felt guilty cause of the argument and stuff. He came upto home and held out a box.

"Fresh pastries. I got them just now." I read from his lips. His face looked sincere.
"I didn't meant to fight like that-"

"Uhh, Thank you." I said and grabbed the box off him. "You didn't have to bring me anything, though."

"Look, Giyuu, I'm really sorry about... last night and shit. I was such an idiot. I just-"

" I didn't mean what I said either.. It's just , if anything I should be the one who's sorry, I was just , i gues upset."

"I'm sorry." He said softly, I could tell with his expression. "It's not you! IM sorry."

"I don't like arguing with you, I want to be good with you.."

"Same, I'm sorry .. I was just out of it."

"Me to , to be honest. I know Obanai is your best friend.....how about we just put it past us?"

"I'd like that." And Sanemi smiled. It was a beautiful smile and really cute.

"Want to share these?" I offered.

"No no, I brought them for you!" Sanemi rejected.

"Come on! I want you to.."

"Alright, only because you want me to."

We shared the pastries and they made me happy because they tasted so good! A feeling came over me, like a relief . Sanemi and I were ok , maybe he will be my first proper friend after all, apart from Mitsuri and Muichiro. Maybe I should consider then my friends too anyway.

I didn't know what to do after eating the pastries. Sanemi looked at me and he said something like "was it good?"
i nodded. He smiled.

"Ehemm, thank you, but I should get back to training-"    Before I could say more Sanemi grabbed my hand that was reaching for my wooden katana.

"Giyuu, you only just recovered, Don't overdo it."
I was suprised.

"I appreciate the concern, but i'm not. I'm only swinging at trees...."

"THATS what you do to train?"

"Well, no? " i got embarrassed a bit. "I just didn't start practicing Water breathing yet. Just swinging."

"Well, water breathing is more defensive than wind breathing right?" Sanemi questioned while resting his chin onto his hand.

"Hmm, Probably..."

"Well if you're trying some swings, IM the best " he smirked."

"Whatever you say..." I laughed a little and took a stance, but of course Sanemi criticised me.

"That's AWFUL! If you want to get power in your swing you need to stand like this" -- and Sanemi came next to me and adjusted my position. His warm hands were comfortable, it wasn't weird at all.

"That's better, now try."

He moved aside. I watched his smile from a small distance. I never really saw this side of Sanemi before, so it was new. I would have never guessed he has a bad temper-

"Are... ya gonna try anytime soon??" He called out while giggling.

"Oh, yeah."

I tried as best as I could. Just because i was a "Hashira" doesn't mean I was good at that. Sanemi smiled and nodded in reassurance. We were finally getting along?????????? It was nice, to have a conversation with him. When we aren't arguing or shouting or anything.

I felt like we could actually be friends.
