Wisteria🌿(Zenitsu x Nezuko)

Chapter~4

Nezuko POV-

Safe... I felt safe in his arms.

I didn't want to break away from him. I wanted to stay in Zenitsu-kun's arms. He then suddenly picked me up and began carrying me to the cafeteria. 

"I-I'm sorry for w-wasting your time Z-Zenitsu-kun," I utter.

"Hey, don't be like that Nezuko-chan. If it's for you, it'll never be a waste of time!"

I blush at his statement as I bury my head into his chest once again. He then gently puts me down as we enter the cafeteria. 

"YAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Zenitsu POV-

After I place Nezuko-chan on the ground, I notice a big spider on the floor! I let out a loud, high-pitched cry as I quickly get behind Tanjiro and Inosuke.

People begin to whisper about me, but I can hear what they're saying because of my ears.

"Can you believe that's the same guy who fought off two seniors?"

"I didn't know the crybaby had a masculine side to him,"

So... they've already found out about me beating up those two boys... WAIT!!!! THAT MEANS-

"Agatsuma! Come with me immediately!" Tomioka-sensei shouts.

"C-Coming sensei!," I say as I quickly run over to him.  

" I don't tell you to do dress code check for one day, and you cause all of this trouble?! Why did you beat up those seniors anyways?!" Tomioka-sensei exclaims as we continue walking to the guidance office.

At the guidance office, I explain what happened. 

"So you beat up two boys who were trying to sexually assault your girlfriend..."

"She's not my girlfriend!"

"I see, well good job on your end for doing the right thing. Even though if I catch beating another person up again, you're dead. But for now, I'll let you off the hook." Tomioka says to me as he opens the door for me.

"T-Thanks!"

That was probably the first and only time Tomioka-sensei praised me. I always thought he hated me because I refused to dye my hair black.

As I walk back to the cafeteria, I realize I have basically no time to eat my lunch. Well it's not like I had much to eat anyways... Just the same old instant ramen.

Afterschool

"Zenitsu-kun! Can I talk to you?"

I recognize that beautiful, angelic voice. It was Nezuko-chan!

"W-what is it you want to t-talk about?" I stammer as I become more flustered. I inhale her sweet scent which makes me blush even more.

She smells... wonderful... I couldn't get enough of her intoxicating scent. 

"I wanted to say that I-

"Nezuko! It's time to go home!"

"C-coming Nii-san!" 

Nezuko then waves to me and says goodbye. I could swear she was blushing. I then go home and do my homework. After I finish up all of my work assigned, I decide to head out to a local noodle shop to have some dinner. I was really sick of eating instant ramen for the past two weeks.

As I walk into the restaurant, I notice two familiar heads. It's Tanjiro and Nezuko-chan! I didn't think they would be here!

"Oh Zenitsu! How about you come sit with us!" Tanjiro waves as he points to a vacant chair.

I sit down and then Nezuko-chan gently passes me a menu. "T-Thanks Nezuko-chan!" She then mouths out a 'you're welcome' and quickly covers her mouth.

I've never seen Nezuko-chan flustered like this... Does she actually like me? No, it's pretty hot in this shop, she could just be sweating from the heat. 

The siblings both order a bowl of udon while I settle for some miso ramen. As me and Tanjiro converse about school, the latest video games, and other things, I can see Nezuko-chan staring at me. A layer of blush begins to coat my face. She then quickly turns away, and I can see a red color tint her cheeks.

After our food arrives, I see Tanjiro basically inhale his noodles. I think he ate the udon in less than a minute. Nezuko-chan on the other hand took her time eating the noodles, as she  elegantly ate the strands of noodles, unlike Tanjiro who looked like he forced the food down his throat. Nezuko-chan must've notice that I was staring at her, as she quickly turns to my direction and blushes.

Crap! I'm making her embarrassed! She doesn't want a pervert like me staring at her!  Stupid Zenitsu!

"S-Sorry Nezuko-chan..." I say flustered. 

Me and Nezuko-chan then eat our meals in awkward silence as Tanjiro goes onto his phone. After we finish our bowls of noodles, we all say our goodbyes and I head back to my apartment.

When are you going to confess Zenitsu? Should I even confess?

As my eyelids begin to feel heavier, and I begin to drift off into sleep, I hear a bird fly onto my balcony. 

I open my sliding door and see Chuntaro! He's the bird that gramps promised to get me when I visited in the summer! 

"Chun! Chun!"

"Hiiiii Chuntaro! We're going to be best friends!"

I had already prepared a bird cage for him but it he refused to get into it.

"Chun!!! CHUN!!!"

"Okay Okay! You can sleep on the my head then! Just don't poop on it"

"Chun!"

Gramps was right that I can understand what Chuntaro was saying. Well I can't actually understand what he's saying, but I can tell if he agrees with something and his mood by the tone of his chirps. I quickly fall asleep with the bird on my head.

I'll give the flower crown to her... someday.

The Next Day

"CHUN!!! CHUN!!!"

"YAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Wait that doesn't sound like my alarm clock?"

I realize that I forgot to turn my alarm clock yesterday, so what woke me up? I eventually feel something viciously pulling on my hair.

"AHHHH CHUNTARO STOP PULLING ON MY HAIR!!!"

I quickly place the bird on my shoulder and get ready for school. I grab two slices of French bread, one for me and one for Nezuko-chan. Tanjiro told me that Nezuko-chan likes French bread, so I wanted to get some for her. As I arrive to school with chuntaro on my shoulder, I see Tomioka-sensei sternly waiting for me outside.

"Agatsuma, you're off dress check duty for now. The bird can come in as long as he is quiet. If you do not keep your pet here under control, I'll write you up!"

"Y-Yes sensei, h-he won't be l-loud," 

I then see Tanjiro walking with Inosuke and Nezuko-chan a little bit behind them.

"Good morning everyone!" I shout as I walk over to them.

"Zonitsu! How nice of you to bring another slice of bread for me!" Inosuke smiles as he attempts to grab the bread out of my hand.

"This isn't for you Inosuke! It's for Nezuko-chan because I know how much s-she l-likes french b-bread!"

I can feel my face heat up as I give the bread to Nezuko-chan.

"T-Thank you Z-Zenitsu-Kun,"

Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! I apologize if there are any grammar/spelling mistakes in the writing. I'll try to get chapter 5 out as soon as possible!
