Truth [DS Fanfic] Tanjiro×Muzan

Chapter 2 Slay 9

Ketsueki exits the room after the talk, he heads to Tanjiro's room to see Tanjiro sitting on the bed, awake. He looks to the door where Ketsueki is standing. The shock in Ketsueki's eyes as he rushes over to the bed, asking "Are you alright?" Tanjiro nods. "Thank god. I thought that you will die from the poison that they injected you with!" Ketsueki adds. Tanjiro not sure what he is saying, so Ketsueki explains to him "As you pierce that sound slayer, your tail essentially got stained by the poison, which causes your blood to clot and it can't heal. I infused some blood to you, to wash the infected blood out of your body." Tanjiro looks to the bedsheets, processing what he heard. "I am happy that you.." Ketsueki couldn't continue as Tanjiro hugs him. Ketsueki reacted with his hands wrapping around Tanjiro's back.

Tanjiro whispers to his ear "You can stop telling me that I'm okay. You saved me with your blood, thank you." Ketsueki smiles. Tanjiro smiles as he pushes himself away from Ketsueki, he looks at Ketsueki intently. So as Ketsueki, Tanjiro touch Ketsueki's cheeks. Slowly caressing his soft skin.

Tanjiro: Something about that poison has taught me a lesson.

Ketsueki: Oh yeah? (Taunting/Teasing tone) What is it?

Tanjiro: That is, live your life for every moment and enjoy what I want because life can be unpredictable sometimes.

Ketsueki: Then what do you want to enjoy?

Tanjiro goes forward, kissing Ketsueki's lips....(Writer decided to remove a chuck of this story cause writer cringed..!)

Ketsueki: *Grins* So this is what you want to enjoy? *lick his lips* Naughty boy.

Tanjiro: *Laughs* It sounds like you don't want it.

Ketsueki: *Grins*  I can feel that this time, you are putting your love in. See, I told you. You will yearn for me.

Tanjiro: *Smirks* Then show me what you got.

Ketsueki: *Grins*  My pleasure.

.....(Writer: God damn it, I'm removing this bit too, I'm shielding and protecting your fantasies people!  Muzan x Tanjiro!)

After some removal of clothing later...They are both naked, they lay on the bed, resting, waiting for the morning to come. Tanjiro opens his eyes, he settles on the bed with nothing but a little blanket covering his thighs. He turns and notice that Ketsueki is sleeping. He goes over to his discarded clothing and wears it. He quietly goes to the door and leave the room...

As he walks down the hallway, he stand in front of the wall which he saw the door yesterday. He feels the wall and he hits a button which opens the door to the room. He enters the now, dim room only to realised that there are some paintings on the walls. Somehow, these paintings are very familar to him. He can't explain why, but he felt that he had seen it before..

Painting 1: Three gods. One holding a glass of red wine, the other hold a a wine glass with nothing in it. The other settles at the back, siting there, with blood running down his body.

Painting 2: The god that holds the glass of red wine can be seen, laying on the table reaching into the ceiling as though there is something there.

Painting 3: The god holding a wine glass, kneeling on the ground, offering the glass.

Painting 4: The one with blood all over sits in the middle of painting 2 and 3, he settles on the throne, with a grin.

"Just what is this." Tanjiro said to himself. Even though he is confused, but for some reason, he felt like there is a need for him to touch the portrait. The one that attracts him the most is Painting 1. He goes over to the potrait, and lightly touch it. "The faces, Muzan...Ketsueki...Who is the one in the middle?" He asked himself. He takes a step back, looking at the all the paintings, with doubts in his eyes.

Later, he returns back to the bedroom to act as though nothing ever happened, he settles on the bedside, cupping his hands together, processing what he just saw, then a cold hand starts to touch Tanjiro's back. Ketsueki awoke from his sleep, Tanjiro turns around and looks at the naked Ketsueki. He settles up and back hugs Tanjiro. "Anything on your mind?" Ketsueki asked as he lay on Tanjiro's shoulder. "Let me ask you a question, how much can I trust you?"

"A lot." Ketsueki states...

"You poison Tanjiro?!" Nezuko screams at Sanemi, she takes a step back in shock. "If he dies, I will fucking kill you." She adds as she leaves, the sirens start to sound and they were all called into the prison, then an explosion occurs...

The sound of rocks dropping on the ground, but when the smoke subsides, no one is there. It's just a den...Then, several demons exit the hole.

"Do me a favour. Break those demons free." Tanjiro told Ketsueki a few days ago...
