POV: It had been a year after Muzan’s defeat & even then society was still rebuilding after his wrath. Any demon that had survived had gone into hiding, fearful of coming out with Hashira & the demon corp still on the rise

For once…times were peaceful. People could go out at night without a worry & even now have celebrations after the sun set

You’d always admired the demon slayers, especially the Hashira…but your eyes had always been on one in particular

Gyomei…stone pillar and highest ranking Hashira

He had severe cuts all over his body due to his fight in the infinity castle, but it was a small price to pay as he got to live to tell the tale…

You’d cried like crazy and had much anxiety when you learned he had fallen into the infinity castle. Worried that even with his strength…he’d never make it back

but he did. Injured, yes…but alive. He almost didn’t make it and almost bled out…but he said his motivation to keep going was you

Now you two had been together, but you had been smothering him a bit. Worried that anything would take him away from you & though Gyomei thought it was cute at first, it was becoming a bit overbearing

——————————————-

The both of you walked the festival streets as many praised him for his heroics. Of course, now more women wanted him more than ever and to have his children due to his status. It annoyed you more than anything as you squeezed his arm more

Gyomei noticed the tension on his arm as he looked to you

Gyomei: You’re squeezing my arm again…please..don’t tell me this is about the festival and those honoring me. I’m strong, my love…you do not need to worry so much.
