The rain had stopped falling down a few minutes later.

"Y/n, we should go find the others. It's dark already..." Muichiro says as he looks up at the night sky. "yeah...sorry for getting you and your jacket wet..." Y/n apologizes and breaks eye contact. Muichiro, still holding on to her hand, starts walking in the direction he ran from before. To their surprise the whole group was waiting for them under a tree.

Y/n: "I'm so sorry!!!!"

Inosuke: "idiot! Why'd you disappear all of sudden!?!"

Zenitsu: "I thought you died!"

Aoi: "you know, you scared me half to death! I'm happy you're okay though." Aoi whispers the last part, she crosses her arms, and closes her eyes.

Tanjiro and nezuko both run over to Muichiro and Y/n to hug them.

Kanao: "oh my...I had no clue what to do! You gave me heart attack..."

Y/n: "I'm really sorry..."

Everyone starts laughing.

Nezuko: "it's okay! we're just glad your fine! hehe!"

Muichiro: "let's head back to the camp site...it's night time, and we're soaked."

Muichiro says as he looks at the time on his phone.

Zenitsu: "waitttt a minute!- are you two holding hands?!!?!?!?!"

Nezuko: "awwwee how cute~~~"

Kanao, Aoi, and Tanjiro laugh.

Kanao: "mind telling us why you're holding hands?~"

Y/n blushes a red color and her eyes were wide, she could feel his hand intertwined with hers now that they mention it. She was so used to it. She was relaxed.

Muichiro: "huh? Oh...because this way she won't get lost again."

Y/n: "y-yeah...w-we kind of agreed on i-it...heh..."

the group ooo'ed.

At the campsite...

Everyone had already taken a bath in the hot spring, and changed clothes. Now they are heading to their tents.

POV of Muichiro

the hot spring was nice...I feel refreshed now. Hmm? A reminder from my phone?

oh. I'll ask him now I guess...

Yuichiro

Muichiro: Yui I need help...

Yuichiro: what nowwww?

Muichiro: it's hard to explain.

Yuichiro: what? omg.

Muichiro: the easiest way to say it is...uh...I guess my stomach feels weird, but only when I'm with Y/n?.

Yuichiro: wait- what

Muichiro: and also my heart beat is really fast, only with her...

Yuichiro: uh mui I think you have feelings for her

Muichiro: I mean...yeah??? I have feelings for everything though...

Yuichiro: no no no, not those feelings, but I'm saying you have a crush.

Muichiro: a crush.

Yuichiro: yes.

Muichiro: is that...a bad thing?

Yuichiro: oh my gosh mui...it depends if they like you back or not.

Muichiro: I wonder

Yuichiro: if Y/n does like you back, make sure you tell me!

Muichiro: should I ask her now?

Yuichiro: nooo wait for a good moment

Muichiro: huh

Yuichiro: like uhhhh....when you two are alone and you feel like you need to tell her

Muichiro: oh...okay then I guess

Yuichiro: alright! You're welcome, idiot!

Muichiro: thanks?

I'm still confused about this "crush" thing. Maybe I can search it up on google...

the urban dictionary...huh...okay.

it sounds...right?

*sigh*

I'm still confused. if Y/n doesn't have the same feelings as me, will that be bad? when can I ask her...

POV of Y/n

I walk into the tent after going to get my hair tie that I had forgotten in the hot spring. I see muichiro sighing...what happened? "Mui? Are you okay? Did something happen while I was gone?" I ask him. "no...I'm just confused." He says turning to me. "hmm? Do you want me to help you understand?" I say sitting beside him. "it's alright...I'm sure I'll get it soon..." Muichiro shrugs, while he is looking at his phone. Hmmm...I wonder what he doesn't understand. I lay down on my sleeping bag and closed my eyes. I was tired after today...It feels so nice laying in bed! Ahhh. Before I drifted into my dream land, muichiro starts playing with my hair. I open my eyes slightly and glance over at him. He didn't notice me looking, and was distracted. we suddenly make eye contact. He makes a questioning face. "huh?...do you need something?." He stops playing around with my strand of hair as he speaks. "Oh, it's nothing! heh..." I feel so embarrassed...! He moves closer to me wrapping me in his arms...w-what??? are we going to cuddle everyday??? If so...I won't be able to sleep properly!!! I was too tired to do anything though. I just put my head near his chest and fell asleep not long after.

POV of Muichiro

I guess it was instinct?... something told me I should cuddle her. I don't know....I'm too tired to think more.
