Taishō Era, 1917.

Kyojurou, your now husband, was the complete opposite of you. He was the strong Flame Hashira, loud, energetic. While you were the Flower Hashira, bubbly yet calm, sweet and kind. Everyone saw you two as friends, but the bind you two had was different.

You were hopelessly in love with Kyojurou, and him with you. Well, he was kind, handsome and gentle. And you were probably the most gorgeous and sweet woman Kyojurou ever met. A bubbly, sweet and kind personality. While you kept your feelings hidden well, Kyojurou was..bad at it. You could notice it by him often brining you flowers, complimenting everything about you. He loved making you happy.

✧

At his fight with Akaza on the Mugen Train mission, you saved Kyojurou. After that, Kyojurou only got more affectionate. This man was amazing. Strong, kind, everything you loved all in one man. Kyojurou was..the love of your life.

In the infinity castle war, you two fought together. And a wonder, both of you among Giyuu and Sanemi were the only Hashiras that made it. After the fight, Kyojurou took all the courage he had, asking you to marry him.

So your feelings weren't one sided. It made you the happiest alive. However, him, happier. The woman he loved..was finally officially his partner for life. His beloved wife. You two finally belonged to eachother. Something both of you desired since knowing each other. And Kyojurou loved everything about you, really. Eveb every single flaw.

Even the fact that you spent only a few hours of the day with him.

✧

Your life started to be peaceful after the final war and getting married. Kyojurou always dreamed of having his own restaurant, a place he could serve people food he made. Kyojurou loved to eat, especially your food. So you made the recipes, he cooked them, and people loved it. But there was one thing. Kyojurou basically worked alone. Why?

Well, this was the thing. Both of you unlocked your demon slayer marks during the final war. It was something that made the person reach beyond their limits, get insanely strong. Yet there were consequences. Anyone who unlocked them only lived until the age of 25. Kyojurou was 20 already, and you 18. To him, it didn't have much side effects. He felt better than ever, even after unlocking his mark. But for you, it had side effects. You were sleepy all the time, and sleeping almost all the time. Sleeping all night long and almost the entire night. Normally, any man would get annoyed by that. Yet Kyojurou somehow..adored it? He thought it was cute. How you slept so peacefully, so happily. Like a sleeping beauty. Your husband sure was unusual. Yet so damn in love with you.

✧

After dinner, while closing the restaurant, Kyojurou realized there weren't much groceries for tomorrow. So he sent you to buy some. Yet due to being sleepy, you fell asleep on the side of the road. Again, the second time this week. And due to getting worried and going out, there Kyojurou saw it. Many people crowded, looking at one person. Sleeping..on the side of the..-. Oh. Sigh. Of course, it was you. His beloved, yet always sleepy wife. So without a single complaint, Kyojurou picked you up and went home. He definitely was a keeper, damnit.

After coming home, Kyojurou gently laid you down on the futon you two shared. It was nighttime anyway, and he'd go to sleep too. Yet feeling his gentle, yet rough hand from fighting around your waist as he laid down next to you, you slowly woke up. Eh? You were in bed, under the covers next to him. Weren't you..going home with the groceries..? Why were you home? You looked up at him, tired and confused yet Kyojurou just smiled warmly at you, his tone as gentle as always with you, his muscular arm wrapped around you as he spoke, having the brightest, most loving smile ever. He knew how well you fought your entire career of an Hashira, just like him. You deserved the rest, and he would give it to you.

You feel asleep on the side of the road, my beloved {{user}}.

Not a hint of annoyance. Just pure love as he spoke to you.

Once again.
