Y/n's PoV:
"Forgive me in advance, Oyakata-sama," Shinazugawa whispered. In a flash, he was under the shade behind Oyakata-san. Obanai-san held Tanjiro down with his elbow. This is chaos! What's this idiot doing now? How am I supposed to predict what he's doing? He suddenly drove his sword into the box! That's it! This idiot's broken the last straw. I felt my blood boil as I shot him a glare, though he did not realize as he was too concentrated on the demon. Tanjiro was crying out to him to stop but of course, Shinazugawa did as he pleased. A vein popped out. I wanted to shout curses of all kind towards him. He just pisses me off so much... I groaned underneath my breath but it seemed to have caught Muichiro's attention as he turned his head towards me.
"Y/n," He calls out, diverting my attention off of Shinazugawa but onto him. He shook his head as to tell me not to do anything drastic towards Shinazugawa. I gave him a pout and looked away. He gave out a sigh and covered my eyes with his hands, which at first startled me but I got calmed down in a matter of seconds. He whispered in my ear "If you don't see it you won't get mad. I hate seeing you mad, Y/n." I blushed a bit but it wore off in a bit. I could still hear Tanjiro's cries and Shinazugawa's startling cries.
"M-muichiro... I'm scared. What am I supposed to do?" I pull at his clothing. He quickly pulled me into his embrace, bringing me close to him. "Y/n, listen to my voice. Don't think about Shinazugawa or Oyakata-sama. Just listen to my voice. Everything will get better eventually. Just relax." He tried to soothe me and well, it was working. He was whispering sweet nothings into my ear. Things like "I love you" or "I'm here for you." It felt peaceful. But suddenly Muichiro let go of me and uncovered my eyes.
Everything's alright. Shinazugawa wasn't shouting like a madman, Tanjiro was being praised by Oyakata and The demon in the box, who was actually a very cute girl, was fine. She didn't eat Shinazugawa. Am I dreaming? Just a moment ago, it was pure chaos. But now I was facing the best possible outcome. I smiled happily at Muichiro, who's attention was on Oyakata-sama.
"Tanjiro has met Muzan Kibutsuji," Oyakata-sama stated. The other Hashiras got into a state of panic. Asking questions what his powers were like or what he looked like. Oyakata-sama quickly shushed them. And gave Tanjiro a talk. Something about the Twelve Kizuki or something. I wasn't really paying any attention. Shinobu-san volunteered to let Tanjiro stay at the Butterfly Mansion and two Kakushi members took him and the box away. "Now let's commence with the Pilla-"
"CHOTTO MATTE KUUUDDDDAAASSSAAAIIII!!" it was Tanjiro. "All due respect sir, but you just gotta let me headbutt the guy with a bunch of scars! At least as many times he stabbed Nezuko!" The Kakushi was trying to hold him back. They were making such a fuss. Suddenly three rocks hit Tanjiro's head. Who was rude enough to- I look to see who had thrown them. Muichiro?! "Mui! That was uncalled for!" I scolded quietly. "You are not allowed to interrupt Oyakata-sama." He declared to Tanjiro, completely ignoring me. I gave him a pout of annoyance. The Kakushi immediately got on their knees, apologizing. They ran away with Tanjiro on their back. Muichiro gave me a pat on the head to defuse my anger.
The rest of the Pillar meeting was us debating among ourselves about whether we should've let the demon live. More like only the boys, except for Muichiro, were debating while the rest of us just laid back and chilled. And after a few long, tiring, hours, the Hashira Meeting was over and the Hashiras dispersed. We all said our goodbyes and Muichiro and I headed back home, which wasn't far. I gave out a sigh. "Today was tiring... Hey, Mui. Thanks for that earlier..." I formed a smile on my lips. "Y/n, your smile is beautiful." He claims, lifting my chin up. I felt my cheeks heat up and I averted my gaze. I gave him a playful hit on the shoulder. "Mui..."
"Y/n!" I heard a voice call out from behind me. I and Muichiro turned around to see Shinazugawa. Funny, we didn't see him when we left the garden. "Oh, Shinazugawa-san. Do you need anything?" I asked him calmly, pretending to forget the anger I felt towards him hours ago. "I wanted to apologize. I know you were extremely pissed off at me earlier and I'm sorry. I acted on impulse and now that I shouldn't have." He gave a bow. "Please forgive me!" I broke out into a fit of laughter spontaneously. I smiled and approached him. "Hehe. Shinazugawa-san... It's okay. I forgive you." I gave him a smack on the back of his head. "But do it again, and commit seppuku." I glared down at him. "Got it?" I asked him playfully. He gulped and stood up. "Yep..." He did a full 180 and yeeted. Muichiro came up to me from behind and hugged me. "Let's get home. I'm tired..." He groaned. A smile crept onto my face.
What would tomorrow have in store?
