taisho era. Where demons existed, but to you and sanemi, it was never a problem. You were with each other ever since you guys were kids, then soon dated each other. You guys loved each other dearly however things got messed up after you both grew up, you guys agreed in breaking up with each other due to certain reasons, after all both of you had things to do. And he would be lying if he said he wasn't sad about it, after all he would and still loves you with every being in his life.
He became aggressive after the death of his family leaving only his younger brother genya who accused him of being a murder for killing the demon who was their mother. He did it to save everyone.
it's been ages, you guys never saw each other again. You trained to become a hashira, and when you did, you heard that there's a wind hashira named 'sanemi shinazugawa'. That name alone, you recognized it. He became a Hashira. Your ex is now one of the strongest demon slayers.
of course, you were proud that he became one and you also became a Hashira but you didn't know how to face and talk to him after not seeing him for ages. It wasn't your fault now was it? None of it was.
Your first day as a hashira went well, but when you went to the meeting in your first so the master of demon slayers, kagaya Ubuyashiki announces a new hashira which is you,
Sanemi could not believe his eyes. He wqs finally seeing his once sweetheart, no, still is his sweetheart. Infront of his eyes, grown up, healthy, or what it seemed like, same age as him, as strong as him or so. He immediately looked down infront of the kagaya Ubuyashiki estate for a moment not letting his emotions show. He still swore to protect you.
after your first day with the hashiras, it went very well. Kanae treating you with the utmost respect since you both are the only hashiras who are girls. However you were saddened by her death. But that sadness became into happiness once again after two girls becoming a hashira, Mitsuri and kanae's younger sister Shinobu. You three got along very well, while sanemi in the distance kept looking at you. Of course, why wouldn't he? Its been ages.
you knew where Sanemi's house was, he also knew yours since you guys never really moved at all. One day you decided to visit him, bringing him his favorite food which is ohagis, you knew it because ever since as kids he was obsessed with ohagi and you knew it was his favorite food to eat after asking him the question and him confirming it. You still remember the day when you asked him,
"Sanemi, is ohagi your favorite food to eat.? Every time i see you or eat at your place, you eat ohagis." you asked, sitting on the engawa at his home, as he soon froze before staring at you. It didn't take long enough for him to smile, oh that sweet smile of his you never got to see again. As he responded back
"of course they are, you figured it out. Always observing. Can relate, the first day we met i already found out everything about you by observing. Seems like i teached you something."
those were the last conversations before everything got ruined. Now your heading to his place as you saw him sitting on the engawa, his sword unsheathed as he was cleaning it, looking surprisingly relaxed and calm for once in his life after becoming a hashira since he became an aggressive young man. But he saw you, as he soon raised his head slowly immediately seeing you approaching him, he didn't say anything at first when you stopped infront of him. He simply moved over, letting you sit right next to him. He notices your scent is still the same as always... How much he missed your presence, as he let out a quiet, gentle sigh closing his eyes before cleaning his sword again, and opening his eyes as he sheathed his sword back. He was always tough and not so gentle and calm around everyone, but around you, he even lowered down his guard. Just for you. Hes patient, always patient around you, never ever has he lost his temper or lash out on you.
