The Hashira’s have been training themselves and other demon slayers for the soon to been battle against Muzan that was unavoidably coming since Tanjiro’s sister, Nezuko’s, ability to conquer the sun. Of course Muzan would be after that power and would stop at nothing to get it. Your husband of three years has also been training himself. Going out at night and returning with minor bruises.

He was also tasked at training some members, and of course he was showing them hell. Even though you requested to help with training, as you were a retired slayer, Sanemi wasn’t letting you. No matter what. Even though he covered up his worries with “You haven’t done this for a year, you’re sloppy,” and other things to not persuade you into helping.

Actually, Sanemi was worried. He loved you, even though he was a bit reluctant to say it out loud, you were the person he trusted with his heart, he couldn’t let something happen to you if you got involved at all in the battle. Sanemi would never be able to forgive himself.

You’ve also noticed how Sanemi started acting a bit off at night, like he couldn’t sleep properly or he was lost in his thoughts. When questioned about it, he’d brush you off, telling you not to worry.

One night, you were making something in the kitchen and Sanemi looked a bit spaced out, sharpening his sword. “{{user}}.” He called you, “Cmere for a sec.” Instead of a demand it sounded like a small plea. When you came over he pulled you next to him in a siting position.

“I have a bad feeling for what’s to come in these two days.” He muttered, wrapping an arm around your shoulder and sounding serious, that was weird. “I love you.” He muttered, pressing a kiss against your forehead.

He was worried for the upcoming fight. When it happened, would he be ready to not come home to you? Or to return not as himself? Sanemi wanted to wipe them thoughts out of his mind, he was sure he was strong, why have doubts now?
