Chapter 12.5 : Meet

This is a filler chapter cause I really have nothing until the Mugen Train Ark takes place and time skips be getting old real quick.

Y/n's PoV:

Muichiro had been living together in peace for a while after that Hashira meeting. The usual missions came and went but other than that nothing special was happening. Today was me and Muichiro's off-day. Pure relaxation, but also pure boredom. We couldn't think about anything to do today. Until it hit me. I should go visit dad! That could cure my boredom. But what about Muichiro? He would be bored waiting for me to come home... Now that I think about it, Muichiro hasn't met Dad yet. Hehe, I've got an idea. 

"Mu~i~chi~ro~" I sang, catching his attention in an instant.. He turned his head towards me with a low hum. "You want to come with me? There's someone I would like you to meet!" I asked him cheerfully. He ponders for a second  "Sure, if you put it that way, then I can't refuse." He calmly accepted as he patted my head lovingly. A slight smile appeared on his lips. I couldn't help but blush at the sight. "U-uh, Okay. L-let's head out then."

~Time Skip. a/n: Imagine Muichiro and your dad meeting for the first time. I'm flipping my shit over having to write that scene.~

We were outside my childhood house. Dad was probably inside, doing whatever he does nowadays. I gave a few firm knocks on the wooden door but silence. No rummaging or voices could be heard. 'Y'know, I could always pull a prank on him. I used to do that all the time when I was younger." I smirked and turned to Muichiro. He had a nervous look on his face upon seeing my smirk. I turned back to the door. I gave another few loud knocks on the door. I then cleared my throat to make my voice a lot deeper. 

"SORU-SAN! IT'S AN EMERGENCY! YOU MUST COME OUT. NOW." I said imitating a man's voice resulting in a quiet giggle from Muichiro and steps approaching from behind the door. "coming!" An oh-so-familiar voice shouted out.  And finally, Dad showed himself by busting through the door. "Yes?" He looked around and finally down at me and Muichiro. "Ah! Y/n! come here my little Hashira!" He opened his arms. I ran up and hugged him tightly. 

I pulled away after a moment and pulled Muichiro towards me. "Dad, meet Muichiro. I've been living with him for the past two years." I said happily as I pulled Muichiro to my dad. "Uh...greetings, sir." Was all that Muichiro could utter. He slyly pulled me to the side and whispered "Y/n, I wasn't expecting to meet your dad today. I'm not in the right mindset." He murmured nervously but with his calm demeanour. "You'll be fine Mui. Besides, my dad's a cool guy." I reassured him. I then turned to my dad. 

"Dad, he's also my boyfriend!" I announced happily as I held onto Muichiro's arm. My dad had a surprised but happy expression. "That's... That's wonderful, Y/n! Muichiro was it? Y'know what? Both of you come inside," Dad led us to the Living room. Once we got there we put down our swords and I took off my haori. That's when dad asked me something that caught me and Muichiro's attention. "Y/n, why don't you go check out your childhood room for a moment.?" He asked with a wink. I already knew what he meant with that wink. I put a thumbs up and nodded, leaving Muichiro and dad alone.

Muichiro's PoV

When Y/n left me and her dad alone, I felt a bit panicked. I was about to go after her but I felt my arm being held back. It was Y/n's dad. "Wait, I would like to speak with you, young man." He said with a welcoming tone and smile. I nodded and sat across from him. 'Shit, am I screwed?' I thought. "So, you're my little girl's boyfriend, huh?" He asked. I gulped and gave a nod. He giggled. "You don't talk much do you?" He smiled. He examined my posture and expression and somehow could conclude that I was nervous even though I was the way I normally was on the outside. "D-don't worry I'm not mad. I  just wanted to talk to you." I looked into his eyes. They were just like Y/n. Happy, cheerful, with a little sadness. Just like Y/n's... 

"Muichiro. I'm getting old already. I know it may be a lot to ask of you but... Please protect and love Y/n properly. She's been through a lot, especially since her mother... All I'm asking of you is to love her more than me and her mother could've ever." He explains as he gives the iconic smile that Y/n would give. "Sir, I promise that I'll love her, cherish her and guard her for as long as I live!" I gave that promise full-heartedly and honestly.

 Just as I declared that, he then again, smiled and scratched the back of his neck "You're an honest boy. You are a perfect fit for Y/n. Looks like Oyakata-san was right..." w h a t. " Sir, what do you mean by that?" I asked him out of curiosity. "Ah! Right. When y/n was promoted to a Hashira, I told Oyakata-san to choose someone that can protect her and well, It was you. Also please, call me Soru-san" He explained nonchalantly. No wonder Oyakata-sama let y/n live with me instead of Shinobu-san.

"You boys done yet!?!" I heard a voice ask from another room. Y/n... "Yes you may come back now Y/n!" Soru-san called out. Footsteps made their way here and in an instant, someone more beautiful than I could ever imagine was in the doorway. Y/n. I can't forget the vows I made today. Especially for y/n. She's the only person I can really bring myself to love.

We packed up our things and left after y/n and Soru-san caught up. We saved goodbye to the kind man. "So what do you think of him?"

...

"He really is your father. Just as kind-hearted and just as wholesome."

A/n YES DAD IS WHOLESoMe also fun fact Soru-san and y/n says Oyakata-san instead of Oyakata-sama because they are closer to him but still have a lot of respect whereas the other Hashira like Muichiro have a line of respect for him, therefore calling him Lord Oyakata (Oyakata-sama)
